In the end, after Zhuge Liang's tongue fought against the heroes, Li Yuan, the son of heaven, also officially reached an agreement with Zhuge Liang to jointly send troops to attack Zhang Xianzhong.
However, the two sides did not sign the relevant offensive and defensive covenants.
In fact, both parties know in their hearts that this is just a temporary union for the sake of interests.
As long as the time comes, maybe the two sides will fight.
So, why do you want to form an alliance and add unnecessary trouble to yourself?
But in the conquest of Shu, Li Yuan, the son of heaven, made a difficulty, and he didn't know who to choose as the commander.
As we all know, Li Yuan attaches great importance to the clan generals, and basically his military power will not be handed over to foreign generals.
Due to the great increase in the power of Wang Shichong, who is now guarding Luoyang, Li Yuan has transferred his second son, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, to the eastern front.
At this time, the crown prince Li Jiancheng saw the dawn, so he immediately asked Li Yuan for battle and led his troops to attack Shu.
Because Li Shimin was in Liangzhou, he had already established an unparalleled military might.
It can be said that Li Jiancheng's military prestige in the army today is far inferior to Li Shimin.
Therefore, Li Jiancheng asked Li Yuan to enter Shu in order to establish meritorious deeds, establish his prestige, and consolidate his position as the crown prince.
However, Li Yuan finally rejected Li Jiancheng's request and appointed Li Xiaogong, a general of the clan, as the commander instead.
He led an army of 30,000 into Hanchuan, cooperated with the Qi army to attack the counties of Hanchuan, and used this operation as a solid backing for Guanlong.
As Li Jiancheng's request was denied, Li Jiancheng immediately went to find Zhuge Liang.
It can be said that today's Li Jiancheng can be said to be extremely talented.
In the conversation with Zhuge Liang, all of them showed the intention of solicitation.
It's just that Zhuge Liang had already sworn to assist Gao Qi when he visited the thatched house three times and sincerely invited him.
How can they easily take refuge in others now?
It's just that although Li Jiancheng all reveals his desire for great talent, Zhuge Liang still refuses.
It is only said that this time Li Yuan ordered Li Xiaogong to be the main general, and his son-in-law Chai Shao to be the deputy general, and led 30,000 troops south to Hanchuan At this time, Zhuge Liang did not immediately return to the Qi army, but asked Li Yuan to accompany the army.
For the sake of the overall situation, Zhuge Liang temporarily stayed in Li Xiaogong's army to give him advice.
For a while, it was only said that since the Tang Army led by Li Xiaogong went south, it has won successive battles all the way and recovered all places.
The Tang army has now been in Guanlong for nearly a year, and has shown great military might in the wars in various parts of the flatland.
Therefore, there was no force in the surrounding area that dared to compete with the Tang Army.
Therefore, Li Xiaogong led the army to the south, so that he could rely on the prestige of the Tang army and incorporate it into the territory without much effort.
In the end, after the Tang army entered the territory of Hanchuan, it finally encountered resistance.
It is only said that Li Dingguo, the son of Zhang Xianzhong who stayed in Hanchuan at this time, had already found out that the Tang army had the intention of going south.
Therefore, it has long built its strong defense line in the territory of Hanchuan to resist the Tang army.
It is only said that after the Tang army arrived in Hanchuan, Li Xiaogong also wanted to break through its defense line with the elite of his own soldiers.
It's just that in several successive shock engagements, the Tang army did not have any victorious results except for the loss of troops.
For a while, Li Xiaogong immediately summoned the generals and began to discuss how to break through the Hanchuan defense line.
Hearing this, the generals were silent, indicating that there was no strategy.
After a long time, Chai Shao, as a deputy general, stood up and said: "His Royal Highness the King of the County, I don't know if I can bypass the Hanchuan defense line and directly enter the Hanchuan Basin." ” "When the time comes, fighting on the plains, how can the rebels be the opponents of my elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty?"
It's just that as soon as Chai Shao's voice fell, Li Xiaogong refused without hesitation.
Immediately, he explained: "There is no way to make a detour, although our army can bypass this strong line of defense and enter the Hanchuan Plain." ” "But you must know that from Guanlong to Hanchuan, there are difficult mountain roads along the way."
"When the time comes, our army's grain route will have to pass through this place no matter what."
"If the enemy's main general once cuts off our army's food route, then our army's entry into the Hanchuan Plain is not equivalent to self-defeat?"
For a while, Li Xiaogong analyzed the disadvantages of the detour one by one Hearing this, the deputy general Chai Shao hurriedly pleaded guiltily and said: "It was Shao's poor thinking and almost brought the army into a desperate situation." ” "Please also ask His Royal Highness the King of the County to punish him" It's just that Li Xiaogong didn't punish Chai Shao, after all, his idea was not wrong.
"It doesn't matter" "You are not familiar with Shudi, so naturally there will be deviations in the process of contribution."
"But as early as the beginning of the invasion of Chang'an, Ben General was focusing on the geography of Shu, mountains and rivers."
"Therefore, I can control all kinds of important roads here."
At this time, Zhuge Liang on the side did not say a word, silently observing Li Xiaogong's every move.
After a long time, he said secretly: "Li Xiaogong, this person is indeed a strong enemy."
"No, we must find a way to get rid of this person, otherwise it will definitely add obstacles to my complete possession."

Seeing that Zhuge Liang was silent, Li Xiaogong shouted to him: "Mr.
Kong Ming, Mr.
Kong Ming" It took several consecutive calls to pull Zhuge Liang back from his thoughts.
Zhuge Liang asked slowly: "I don't know what His Royal Highness the King of the County commands" Hearing this, Li Xiaogong smiled slightly and said, "Mr.
Kong Ming, what do you think about the current situation?"
"There is a plan to break the enemy and annihilate the rebels within the defense line" Hearing the order, Zhuge Liang did not panic, continued to shake the goose feather fan, and began to ponder.
"His Royal Highness the King of the County, in fact, the general left behind by Zhang Xianzhong is indeed quite strategic."
"Know how to set up the defense line at the narrow road crossing, and go down the mountain to resist your own army."
Immediately, Zhuge Liang slowly analyzed the characteristics of the enemy general's use of troops.
Hearing this, Li Xiaogong was puzzled: "Could it be that according to what Mr.
Kong Ming said, our army will not be able to break through its defense line?"
"Haha" "Your Royal Highness, of course not, because although the enemy general is indeed good at arranging troops."
"But it ignores the topography of Shudi, revealing a very huge flaw."
Immediately, Zhuge Liang gently shook the goose feather fan and continued.
For a while, Li Xiaogong had doubts in his heart again and asked, "What flaw?"
Seeing that Li Xiaogong was completely confused, Zhuge Liang immediately stopped tempting and said blatantly: "Dingjun Mountain" "Dingjun Mountain" Hearing this, the generals in the camp chanted these three words one after another, and the doubts in their eyes were undoubtedly revealed.
Immediately, Zhuge Liang slowly walked to the map hanging on the screen, and began to analyze the map step by step.
"Although the enemy has set up a strong defensive line at this narrow crossing, it will defend against its own army."
"His Royal Highness the King of Kejun can lead an army to occupy Dingjun Mountain, which is a few miles away."
"It must be known that Dingjun Mountain is extremely high, and the slope is gentle and the road is shaking, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack" "And the garrison Dingjun Mountain, you can look at the whole scene and peep at the rebels."
"Hmph, isn't the initiative in the hands of His Royal Highness the King of the County at this time?"
For a while, Zhuge Liang finally said his inner plan, and the generals of the Tang Army heard about it, and they repeatedly called out the call of the great chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty :
