Lishijun Yellow River Ferry, 200,000 troops gathered on the bank of the Yellow River. The tents were one by one, stretching for dozens of miles. On the surface of the river, hundreds of thousands of stone ships were transporting troops to Yan'an County on the other side. Before that, Yan'an County had assembled 50,000 troops, hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass, and a large amount of military materials. . The fastest update

The news that Li Yuanji ascended the throne to the Tang Emperor has spread all over the world, and at the same time it was also the "Expression of Rebels" written by Zhang Xuan, the emperor of the Great Zhou Empire. Li Yuanji's crimes were summoned to kill his brother, poison his father, his mother, massacre the people, brutality, and other atrocities. He pointed out that he had betrayed his relatives and separated, and called on all the scholars and common people in the world to fight against him. At the end of the manifesto, Zhang Xuan was willing to do his best to heaven and fight against the tyrant Zhou for the good people in the world.

This was the opportunity that Zhang Xuan had waited for nearly a year before. Li Yuanji's palace coup completely destroyed the political foundation of the Tang Dynasty, making the Tang Dynasty no longer legal, and the political time to unify the world was ripe.

In the big tent, Zhang Xuan was listening to emergency reports sent by various places, and led his troops to send a report from Chen Guang, who was from Nanxiang Road. The Zhou army successfully attacked Wuguan, and 20,000 troops were quickly advancing towards Shangluo County. The 10,000 Tang troops guarding Shangluo County had surrendered 5,000 people, and the other 5,000 troops gave up Shangluo County and retreated to Lantian Pass.

Good news also came from Hanzhong. Liu Lancheng led 10,000 cavalry to the south from Wenjun and entered Hanzhong. At this time, Li Xiaogong had led 10,000 troops to respond to Li Shimin's call to advance to Chang'an. Only Shi Huaiyi in Li Xiaogong's logistics camp in Hanzhong led 10,000 people to guard it. Liu Lancheng led cavalry to sneak attack Hanzhong camp. Shi Huaiyi was forced to retreat to Nanzheng County. Li Xiaogong's retreat to Hanzhong was also cut off by the Zhou army.

Without the Tang army blocking it in the north, Xu Shiji's 50,000 troops took the Jinniu Road to attack Hanzhong, and the army surrounded Nanzheng. Only Dashi Huaiyi was left in Nanzheng City and led 6,000 troops to guard it. People were in chaos and food was about to be cut off.

A series of good news was really encouraging, but it was not surprising that Li Yuanji's forced seizure of the throne completely lost his cohesion. Without a partner of loyalty, the soldiers lost their fighting spirit and morale. In addition, the general trend of the Zhou Dynasty to unify the world was determined. At this time, except for the royal family and some hard-working elements, no one was willing to work hard for the Tang Dynasty anymore.

So when Liu Lancheng sneaked into the Hanzhong camp, Shi Huaiyi had noticed it and led his army out to fight, but the Tang army was still defeated at once. This is a typical manifestation of the loss of morale between the army.

Zhang Xuan was in a good mood and walked out of the big tent. At this time, it had already arrived. The sky was full of stars on the bank of the Yellow River, and a Milky Way passed through the sky. Zhang Xuan stood at a high place and stared at the depths of the Milky Way. He had almost forgotten his past and present life. Only when he was alone by chance, a familiar thing, or a feeling touched the string deep in his heart, made him look back suddenly, but everything in his previous life was no longer familiar, and became more and more vague, as if it had become a dream.

Dreams will always be forgotten, but the world in front of you is real.

Zhang Xuan took out a cloth bag from his arms, opened it, and there was a pistol inside. It was well maintained, and every part was still shiny. If it was just a dream in the past, then the gun was so real. Every time he saw this pistol, he recalled his past years.

At this time, Fang Xuanling hurriedly walked to Zhang Xuan with an emergency eagle letter sent from Chang'an, but he did not disturb the lord, but looked at the lord patiently for a long time at the galaxy.

"Prime Minister, if there is a passage deep in the Milky Way that allows you to go back to the past or the future, would you be willing to go?" Zhang Xuan asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty's question is very interesting, but if I choose, I will still choose not to go."

"Why?" Zhang Xuan looked back at him and asked in confusion.

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "I have a wife, children, and an old mother. What should they do if I leave?"

Zhang Xuan laughed, and he felt relieved. His home is here, his relatives are here, and his destiny is here, so why do you still miss your former dreams?

He raised his hand suddenly and threw the pistol into the surging Yellow River. The pistol disappeared into the rolling Yellow River along with his former dreams.

Zhang Xuan seemed to untie all the knots and laughed: "Let's go! The mission of unifying the world is still waiting for us?"

The 200,000 army took three days to cross the Yellow River and joined forces with the 30,000 Yan'an army. Zhang Xuan immediately divided the troops into three groups. He ordered Su Dingfang to lead 30,000 troops to capture Honghua County, and ordered General Longxiang Du Yunsi to lead 50,000 troops to support Luo Shixin, and at the same time seize the Beidi County.

He personally led an army of 150,000 toward Guanzhong along the Luoshui Road.

There is also a Shangjun blocking between Yan'an County and Guanzhong. The Tang army also has 5,000 garrisons here, commanded by Li Daoxun, the general of Qianniu Guard of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Daoxuan is also a member of Li Shimin. He is the best among the younger generation of the Li royal family. He is only eighteen years old this year, but he is brave and brave in combat. Although he is not experienced enough, he is still recommended by Li Shimin to guard Shangjun.

Li Daoxuan had already received a scout and the Great Zhou Emperor Zhang Xuan personally led an army of 150,000 to the south. The Zhou army vanguard was the fierce general Qin Yong, and led 5,000 troops to fight towards Luojiao County.

Although Li Daoxuan felt much pressure, he also saw a god-given opportunity. If he could kill Zhang Xuan in one battle, then the Tang Dynasty might have a chance to turn the tables.

Li Daoxuan knew very well that Luojiao County was unable to stop the 150,000 army. Instead of being crushed to pieces, it would be better to take a risk.

He immediately led 5,000 troops to leave Luojiao County and detoured northeast to the Qingshan area. This was a branch of Luochuan Road, and the 5,000 troops were ambushed in a dense pine forest.

In front is Luochuan Road, which is the only place for the army to move south. It is only thirty miles away from Luojiao County. The Zhou army vanguard has occupied Luojiao County. Zhang Xuan will definitely pass by here. Li Daoxuan patiently waited for the opportunity to arrive.

As night fell quietly, teams of Zhou troops finally appeared. The front army came first, with flags waving and spectacular momentum. The soldiers were bright and bright in armor. Teams of murderous intent walked past the ambush of the Tang army.

At this time, a side general asked in a low voice: "General, when will Zhang Xuan appear?"

"Wait patiently! When his royal flag arrives, he should have appeared."

"But it's dark, how do you distinguish the king's flag?"

Li Daoxuan didn't know how to tell, but based on his feelings, when Zhang Xuan arrived, the Zhou army would be more dense and huge. He had to say to the general: "Look at the opportunity, wait patiently!"

After the Zhou army left for an hour, the team suddenly broke down, and there were no more troops behind. After waiting for a while, there was still no army. Li Daoxuan suddenly felt something was wrong. Isn’t this just surrounding himself in the middle?

Understanding this, he urgently ordered: "Retreat immediately!"

But it was too late, and suddenly there was a shout of killing behind him, with drums coming from front, back, left and right, and the shouts of killing were shocking. I don’t know how many Zhou troops surrounded them from all directions.

"Break eastward immediately!"

Li Daoxuan roared, and he turned over the horse and led the soldiers to break east with a spear, but they were surrounded by 30,000 Zhou troops. The Zhou troops on the opposite side were shot at ten thousand arrows, and the Tang soldiers fell down one after another. The jungle was filled with the wailing and crying of Tang soldiers. Li Daoxuan caught him off guard, and was hit by several arrows in his chest and shoulders, and shouted and turned over and fell off the horse.

At this time, a majestic voice sounded, "I am Yuchi Gong, the general of the left guard of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I told you at the order of His Majesty the Emperor that the emperor did not want to kill the young and strong. If you surrender immediately, you can get rid of your armor and return to the field. If you resist stubbornly, you will die!"

Yuchi Gong shouted three times in a row, and the Zhou army stopped shooting archery. The surviving Tang soldiers were already exhausted and raised their hands to shout: "We are willing to surrender! We are willing to surrender!"

"Put down your weapons, take off your armor, raise your hand to avoid death!"

The Tang soldiers were no longer willing to fight, and their desire to survive made them take off their armor and throw down their weapons. Teams raised their hands to walk towards the woods.

At this time, Zhang Xuan also came to the ambush place under the escort of the three thousand cavalrymen. When he saw a team of embarrassed Tang soldiers being escorted out, he couldn't help but sneer. Li Daoxuan had a poor experience and was ambushing a hundred steps away from the official road. Don't you know that the army will deploy patrols along the way?

At this time, several Zhou soldiers carried a pair of stretchers out. On the stretcher was General Li Daoxuan. He was shot in eight arrows and shot a fatal arrow into his left chest. Although he had not yet died, he was already exhausted.

Zhang Xuan looked at Li Daoxuan for a moment and said to him: "Although you have a commendable courage, you don't understand the will of heaven. If God wants to destroy Tang, how can you stop your mantis arm? Go with peace of mind! I will be buried with you."

Li Daoxuan's lips moved, but he finally died.

Zhang Xuan immediately ordered: "Burn him in Luojiao County with the courtesy of a marquis." (To be continued...)
