Chapter 104: Spear Flower

Just when Li Shimin was in danger, the eldest grandson Wuji and Duan Zhixuan rushed up left and right, crossed Li Shimin and Xue Rengao in one place, Li Shimin retreated, rode his horse and stood behind for a little respite, more cavalry generals rushed past him towards Xue Rengao, but Xue Rengao was not afraid, Xue Rengao's cavalry had also pursued at this time, and the two sides immediately fought together, in order to prevent accidental injury to their own people, they had to slow down their horses, and win completely by personal martial arts like on the flat ground.

Although he is also a general who likes to charge into battle, it is different from the sharp knife formation used by Xue Rengao, Li Shimin is in a trapezoidal charging formation, as for the reason, it is very helpless, Li Shimin has no general in his hands, he himself knows his own affairs, and he can also rely on his extraordinary strength to suppress when he encounters ordinary generals, and when he encounters thousands of enemies such as Xue Rengao, he may not even be able to block it for ten rounds, so he can't be too far away from the two wings, once he encounters a strong enemy, as long as he can block for a moment, the two wings will arrive, Thus getting a respite.

Xue Rengao is really a very formidable opponent, soon, even the eldest grandson Wuji and Duan Zhixuan can't resist it, Yin Kaishan immediately joined the battle group, but he only maintained an undefeated situation, Li Shimin took a break, and also pounced on it with his sword, besieging an opponent who is much stronger than himself, it is not a shameful thing. Li Shimin, eldest grandson Wuji, Duan Zhixuan, and Yin Kaishan fought against Xue Rengao, but they only maintained a level of strength. As for the wisdom of the entire army, Li Shimin has already been fully responsible for Du Ruhui's handling. ,

As the commander-in-chief, it is actually a very taboo thing to fight in person, because the commander's function is more to dispatch the coordination ability of the whole army than to be brave, but Li Shimin still did it, not only because Xue Rengao, who was the commander of the Qin army, also risked his life, but more importantly, Xue Rengao was brave and fierce. Li Shimin's actions undoubtedly inspired the soldiers of the Tang Army, and they rushed forward one after another and fought with Xue Rengao's men and horses.

The two warring sides have their own advantages, Xue Rengao's soldiers are very elite but few, and they cannot completely suppress the Tang army that is more numerous, and although Xue Rengao himself is fierce, in the face of Li Shimin and many other Tang army generals besieged together, Xue Rengao wants to win is also very difficult, so the battle entered the stalemate stage, and the soldiers on both sides shouted slogans and threw themselves into the battlefield one by one, either killing the enemy, breaking into the enemy formation, or, being killed by the enemy. The battle lines of the Tang and Qin armies were intertwined with each other, or they could achieve a certain local advantage in one of them, but they did not break the existing stalemate in the overall battle situation. In this way, the fierce battle lasted from early morning to early afternoon, not to mention that the soldiers of the two armies were exhausted, even peerless fierce generals such as Xue Rengao had reached the limit. On the side of the Tang army, Duan Zhixuan was injured by Xue Rengao and had to withdraw from the battle circle, and the eldest grandson Wuji had retreated with all his strength, leaving only Li Shimin and Yin Kaishan still struggling to support. Behind Li Shimin, two young generals rushed out, but they were Li Shimin's brothers of the same clan, Li Daoxuan and Li Daozong, who joined the battle circle to besiege Xue Rengao together. Li Shimin got these two new forces to join, and was able to rest for a while again, he retreated, but instead of recovering his body with all his might, he began to calmly observe the entire battlefield, and after most of the day's fighting, whether it was the Qin army or the Tang army, they had reached the end of the strong crossbow, and the competition between the two sides was the strength of willpower, and the strongest party that could not hold on to it would be completely defeated, and there would be no chance of a turnaround.

The situation of the Tang Army is not good! Li Shimin saw clearly: although it had the advantage of numbers, but the Tang army was not as elite as the Qin army after all, and under the hard fighting, it was already on the verge of collapse, Li Shimin wanted to reverse the unfavorable situation, he had to do something, "Auxiliary, keep an eye on Xue Rengao for me, and I will command the army." "Let the people of the world go with confidence, there is me here!" The eldest grandson Wuji, who was also resting behind Li Shimin, said that Li Shimin then instigated the war horse to run to the main formation of the army, jumped off the war horse and jumped on the high drum platform, grabbed the drumstick of the drummer, and beat the drum hard, "Dong Dong, Dong......" At the same time, he got the order to advance, and the people who were responsible for pushing the drum platform forward also worked hard together, pulling the high platform and moving forward slowly. Behind the high platform, Li Shimin's handsome banner also moved with him, slowly but resolutely advancing towards the forefront of the battlefield. And as time went by, gradually, more and more Tang soldiers saw Li Shimin and his handsome banner who were struggling to beat drums to inspire the soldiers to move forward, as Li Shimin's high platform continued to move forward, their bodies also seemed to regain their strength, and the Tang Army, which had lifted its spirits, invariably let out a deafening shout, and this sound finally turned into bursts of thunder and loud noises, and the Tang Army burst out again with amazing momentum. Almost with an unstoppable ferocious offensive, it destroyed the battle line that the Qin army was still struggling to support, penetrating them, cutting them one after another, and then encircling them and annihilating them. The collapse of the front was also very terrible for the Qin army, because it also marked the collapse of the Qin army's willpower, and sure enough, when the victory of the Tang army had become unstoppable, the Qin army, which was originally only a small force of retreat, immediately turned into an irreparable rout. The soldiers of the Qin army, who had no fighting spirit, rushed to flee behind them, completely ignoring the loud shouts of the generals around them, and did not think that their army was a hundred battles of heroes, and the only thing that every Qin soldier could think of in the hearts of every Qin soldier at this time was to flee quickly to save his life...... I have to say that fear is contagious among people.

Xue Rengao is not willing to fail, he has not lost the ability to continue fighting, although the other party has always been fighting more and less, but they are all pressed and beaten by themselves, and the cavalry troops led by themselves have not yet shown defeat, in fact, they are also suppressing the opponent's cavalry troops, but at this moment, because of the collapse of the infantry phalanx, Xue Rengao and his cavalry troops have actually become a lone army, if they can't get out of the battlefield immediately, once the opponent's infantry blocks the way back, Even if he surrounded himself on all sides, then even if Xue Rengao was possessed by the God of War and Xiang Yu was resurrected, I am afraid that he would have to hate in this wilderness battle array.

In fact, when there was an accident on the side of the infantry phalanx, Xue Rengao had already thought of returning to the army formation to preside over the formation, but at this time, the generals of the Tang Army also fought with their lives to block, Li Daozong's brothers, the eldest grandson Wuji, Liang Shi and Pang Yu, who had newly joined the battle circle, and even the wounded Duan Zhixuan and Yin Kaishan also rushed to the death Xue Rengao. Ren Xue Rengao's hand Fang Tian painting halberd danced like a stormy wave and couldn't get out, and after the Qin army's formation collapsed, Xue Rengao finally got out, but it was already too late. Immediately decided, Xue Rengao immediately called the cavalry to retreat, even if he wanted to snow today's shame, he had to get rid of the Tang army, and after that, he wanted to gather the defeated troops and fight with the Tang army.

Seeing the retreat of the Qin army, many Tang army soldiers breathed a sigh of relief happily, but also felt a burst of blackness in front of them, after all, it was a battle with a body exceeding the load, and finally under the encouragement of Li Shimin, it broke out so fiercely, many people were already powerless after venting in one breath, and they couldn't even lift the strength to move their fingers. On the high platform, Li Shimin was also gasping for breath, however, he did not relax himself, but then jumped off the high platform, turned over and stepped on his war horse again, and asked Du Ruhui, who had already arrived here: "Where is my reserve cavalry?" "Just on the flank of the military formation, waiting for His Highness's dispatch at any time!" Du Ruhui replied. Li Shimin still has a cavalry unit in his hands, of course, these so-called reserve cavalry, in fact, are the remnants of the remnants that have been brushed down in the layers of screening in the righteous army, and the reluctance to be incorporated into the cavalry unit not only can not enhance the combat power, but will cause trouble to their own people because they are not familiar with the rhythm of the cavalry, but whether it is a war horse, or a person who understands equestrianism, after all, it is a very rare wealth, Li Shimin then made them an army of their own, used as a reserve force, and at this moment it is completely enough to pursue the defeated enemy. After all, the Qin army, which was scurrying around because of the collapse, was undisciplined.

"Very good, order the soldiers who still have the strength to capture the enemy as much as possible, and the rest of the soldiers will rest on the spot, pay attention to the vigilance to prevent the enemy from counterattacking, and at the same time send someone to Fufeng to inform that our army has won, and the siege of Fufeng will be solved in a few days." After saying this, Li Shimin had already rushed to the flank of the army formation, where Li Shimin's new force replaced the first-class cavalry elite who had long been exhausted, and began to fiercely pursue Xue Rengao and his defeated army.

If there is no Li Shimin's leadership, this third-rate cavalry may not have the courage to pursue Xue Rengao for a long time, and similarly, just in the face of the pursuit of a third-rate cavalry, Xue Rengao may also use his cavalry to kill a horse gun and eat this cavalry, but because Li Shimin rushed to the forefront again, Xue Rengao actually failed to organize any such charge, because his generals have been frightened by Li Shimin, even if Xue Rengao still has the will to fight, he will not listen to him, Xue Rengao, who was helpless, could only retreat quickly to the rear with his cavalry, but Li Shimin led his cavalry to throw down all the infantry and bit the back of Xue Rengao's cavalry.

Xue Rengao didn't dare to help the wind, although there were still nearly 100,000 troops there, but most of them were Tang Bi's old troops, and now Xue Rengao was defeated, whether these people could still be loyal to him is a question, if he rebelled against himself at that time, and fell to the side of the Tang army, it would be too dangerous, so Xue Rengao did not dare to stay but fled all the way to the west, Li Shimin chased after him, without the slightest scruple that he had gradually entered the enemy's sphere of influence, along the way, Xue Rengao's escape speed was certainly fast, But the speed of Li Shimin's pursuit was really fierce, perhaps because Li Shimin knew that there would be no second chance like this. So even if he went deep into the enemy territory, even if he was already exhausted, he still bit the back of Xue Rengao's cavalry and didn't let go. One chases and one runs. With the high speed of the cavalry, the distance of hundreds of miles passed in an instant, and there were occasional small groups of Qin troops along the way, but when they saw this scene, they didn't have the courage to rush up and intercept it. This Tang army is really too fierce. Until a small county town appeared directly in front of the chasing parties.

Xue Rengao was overjoyed, cavalry siege has always been a taboo for soldiers, although the city wall of a county town is very short, but it is enough for the cavalry to resist Li Shimin, especially what makes Xue Rengao extremely happy is that in front of the county seat, a number of hundreds of Qin troops have been lined up, waiting for the cavalry to come and charge, and seeing that although the number of these soldiers is small, it looks like an elite, Xue Rengao did not stop, and immediately led the cavalry to bypass the Qin soldier phalanx that had already been formed into the county.
