Global Warring States: Get the Tang Taizong template at the beginning

Chapter 121 Liangshan Generals (Fifth Update)

Li Qian obtained the template of Emperor Taizong of Tang, so he was able to recruit the Black Armor Army.

Three of the four main generals of the Black Armor Army, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Jingde, have all been recruited by Li Qian, leaving only the last main general of the Black Armor Army - Zhai Changsun.

Zhai Changsun followed Xue Ju to establish Western Qin in Jincheng in his early years and served as the Minister of Internal Affairs.

Later, Xue Ju died of illness, Li Shimin defeated Xue Rengao, and Zhai Changsun surrendered.

Perhaps it was because of the strength of Xue Ju's Longyou cavalry that Li Shimin formed the Black Armor Army on this basis.

There are very few records about Zhai Changsun, and he was not listed among the twenty-four heroes in the Lingyan Pavilion. It is very likely that he died in battle during the Xuanjia Army's conquest of the world.

But there is no doubt that Zhai Changsun must have been a fierce general since he could become one of the four generals of the Black Armor Army together with Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde.

Li Qian only needs to recruit Zhai Changsun to complete the A-level achievement "Xuanjia Army".

If Zhai Changsun was recruited by the King of Qin, the first lord of Rang County, then it would explain why the King of Qin also had a black armor army under his command.

"It's good to come."

If we rely on the recruitment order to recruit Zhai Changsun, we don’t know when we can recruit Zhai Changsun.

If the cavalry general of Rang County was Zhai Changsun, Li Qian would have a chance to gather the four black-armored generals.

In history, Zhai Changsun was not loyal to his lord and would surrender as long as the situation became hopeless.

"Could it be that the King of Qin obtained the template of Xue Ju, the Overlord of Western Qin?"

Li Qian himself obtained the template of Emperor Taizong of Tang, so it was easier for him to draw civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty.

The first lord of Rang County, "King of Qin", drew Zhai Changsun, a relatively unpopular general. Based on this, Li Qian inferred that the King of Qin in Rang County was very likely to obtain the template of the Overlord of Western Qin, or the template of Xue Rengao, the son of Xue Ju.

If it was the Xue Rengao template, then it would be okay. Xue Rengao was brave but not wise, and Li Shimin destroyed Xue Rengao in less than a month.

But if it is the template of Xue Ju, the Overlord of Western Qin, then it will be a bit tricky.

In the Battle of Qianshuiyuan, Xue Ju relied on the Liangzhou cavalry to defeat the Tang army and piled up the corpses of the Tang army into a Jingguan.

Although the Tang army at that time did not have the Black Armor Army, nor did it have powerful generals such as Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Jingde, Xue Ju was able to force the Tang army to this point, which shows that Xue Ju's bravery is fully worthy of the title of "Overlord".

"Since the King of Qin is the strongest force among the four counties' coalition forces, we should destroy him first."

Li Qian was not afraid either.

The King of Qin had only a few dozen Black Armor Soldiers, while Li Qian had more than two hundred Black Armor Soldiers, and he also recruited three Black Armor Soldiers' main generals: Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Jingde.

The other side had only one general of the Black Armor Army, Zhai Changsun.

Li Qian is determined to win over Zhai Changsun.

If the four generals of the Black Armor Army were gathered before the national war, Li Qian couldn't imagine how ferocious the Black Armor Army would be on the battlefield of the national war.

Li Qian led his troops back to Tiance Town. Gao Xianzhi returned to the town only after receiving the news from Li Qian. Unexpectedly, he also arrived at Tiance Town shortly after Li Qian returned.

Gao Xianzhi is indeed a master of marching. It is estimated that only Xiahou Yuan, Deng Ai and others in the Three Kingdoms can compare with Gao Xianzhi in this respect.

Li Qian and Gao Xianzhi joined forces with a total of 4,000 troops, and brought back 4,000 surrendered soldiers, totaling 8,000 people.

The morale of the 4,000 surrendered soldiers was low and their combat effectiveness was mediocre. The real main force was still the 4,000 elite soldiers originally from Tiance Town.

Wei Rui, Chen Qingzhi, Fu Rong, and Deng Zilong led two thousand elite soldiers and a group of surrendered soldiers to contain the tens of thousands of troops in Nieyang County and Yuyang County in the north. Li Qian must defeat the Overlord of Western Qin as soon as possible.

"Report! The follow-up troops from Rang County have arrived in Jingning County! They may attack the city at any time!"

"Urgent report! Anzhong County's 8,000 naval forces have landed on the west bank of the river and joined forces with the troops from Rang County. The enemy is very strong. General Li and General Wei are asking for help!"

Li Qian and Gao Xianzhi returned to Tiance Town. Li Xiuning and Wei Yan, who were trapped in Jingning Town west of Baihe River, sent people to ask for help.

"Go back and tell them that I will lead the troops out immediately. Let them decide whether to abandon the town depending on the situation. They don't have to defend it to the death." Li Qian was worried about the loss of three great generals, Li Xiuning, Wei Yan, and Huang Zhong, so he gave them the power to abandon the town.

Compared with the gains and losses of a small town, Li Qian cared more about the life and death of three powerful generals.

"Yes!"

"Wait, Cheng Yaojin, go with him to Jingning Town to report the news."

"As ordered!"

The messenger sent back by Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiuning went to Jingning Town.

With Cheng Yaojin's incredible luck and current military strength, he should be able to successfully enter Jingning Town to report the news.

"After replenishing weapons and dry food, we crossed the river overnight."

Li Qian knew that the navy of Anzhong County might try to block the Baihe River and cut off the retreat of Li Xiuning and Wei Yan's troops, so he decided to go back to the upper reaches of the Baihe River and cross the river overnight.

Fortunately, Huang Zhong is also in Jingning Town. With a powerful general like Huang Zhong around, there is a high probability that they will be able to escape even if the battle goes unfavorably.

"I want to go with you."

Huang Wudie was wearing armor, holding a longbow, carrying a quiver on her back, and she climbed onto her horse with a determined look on her face.

In order to rescue Wei Yan, Huang Zhong was trapped in Hexi with Wei Yan. Huang Wudie decided to join the army to save her father.

"Then come on."

In the north, Wei Rui and Chen Qingzhi are tying down the troops of two counties, and Li Qian will cross the river to attack the troops of two other counties. The Tiance Town will not be under siege for the time being.

Tiance Town still has 3,000 defenders, 5,000 militiamen, as well as generals such as Gao Xiang, Deng Zhi, and Wen Tianxiang, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

Outside Jingning Town, the troops from Rang County and Anzhong County joined together.

The King of Qin is the main general of the coalition forces of the four counties. He summons the timely rain and other lord players from all the counties to join forces to besiege Jingning Town.

The two counties have more than 10,000 soldiers, which is ten times the strength of Jingning Town.

Ji Shiyu brought the Anzhong County lord player into the Qin King's military tent, and he was followed by several generals.

A military general with white teeth, red lips, and a handsome appearance, carrying a strong bow on his back.

A military general with a dignified appearance, wearing a pointed red scarf on his head, a silk flower inserted in his temples, and a pair of iron spears in his hands.

A military general with a broad purple-black face, a cinnabar mark on his temples, two black hairy legs tied up, and holding a broadsword.

One of the generals had a dark appearance, hair as thick as an iron brush, a body as thick as an iron ox, and his weapon was a double axe.

When the King of Qin saw the lineup of generals brought by Ji Shiyu, he became somewhat wary.

Ji Shiyu can become the first lord of Anzhong County, which shows that he is quite capable.

"Attack the city immediately. Don't give the scholar a chance to react."

When the players from Anzhong County arrived, the King of Qin asked them to attack the city in an unquestionable tone.

Ji Shiyu sat down and sipped his tea leisurely: "King Qin, are you too impatient? When the troops from Nieyang County and Yuyang County arrive at Tiance Town to contain the main force of the scholar, we can attack Jingning Town. Isn't it a sure thing?"

"What do you know? Speed ​​is of the essence in war. Otherwise, by the time the scholar reacts, we may not be able to win."

"How dare you look down on my big brother?!"

The iron-blooded general picked up a pair of axes and actually wanted to chop the King of Qin to death.

"Tie Niu, stop!" Ji Shiyu stopped the general, "What the King of Qin said is not unreasonable. We need to capture this town as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble."
