Chapter 244: Dragon Battles Xingye
When fighting, Li Shimin likes to often go out to explore the enemy situation and the environment around the military camp, which may be said to be an extremely bad habit of his, because this habit often brings him a fatal crisis, needless to say when the Western Qin fought Xue Rengao, if it weren't for Shi Qingyi's timely appearance, Li Shimin's bones would have been cold for a long time, and during the Hedong War, Li Shimin germinated in a solid state, and when he went out to inspect, Actually slept in the grass of a mound because he was tired, and then, because he was bitten by a passing mouse and woke up-Li Shimin really got the favor of God, if he hadn't woken up because he was bitten by a mouse, Li Shimin would not have found out that the patrol of the enemy Song Jingang had actually approached in front of him, and in that case, Li Tang's generation of war gods, naturally, would have become Song Jingang's prisoners.
It is precisely because of the crises that he often encounters when he goes out, so no matter which of Li Shimin's subordinates, he is extremely worried about the safety of the King of Qin, however, no matter how hard his subordinates plead, Li Shimin still goes his own way, because Li Shimin clearly knows that the reason why he will always be invincible is that he knows the strength of himself and the other party better than his enemies, and knows himself and his opponent in order to win all battles. As the commander of the three armed forces, Li Shimin must know better than anyone else whether the source of the information is reliable, and in order to do this, he must personally come forward to probe the truth of the enemy's situation, to verify the accuracy of the terrain described by the scouts, even if he is in danger, he will not hesitate.
Of course. In order to protect himself as much as possible, Li Shimin still did a lot of precautions, for example, he personally trained an elite guard to be responsible for protecting his own safety, and every time he left the barracks. The army will be under martial law and strictly order to block their own news, and when he goes out, Li Shimin will arrange for himself to be a soldier, and he will never reveal his identity as the king of Qin, so as to attract the attention of the enemy. In this way, under various strict measures, although Li Shimin is still in danger from time to time, he is at risk of a crisis. It's a big drop, indeed.
At this time, Li Shimin went out to investigate the enemy again, however, unlike in the past, the cavalry team following him at this time was as many as thousands of people, this was a black armored cavalry unit, with a strict formation, exuding a fierce temperament. This cavalry is Li Shimin's countless efforts. One of the elite of the Xuanjia cavalry team trained by one hand, the Xuanjia cavalry team, is a strong army trained by Li Shimin in countless battles of all sizes, and can only be trained by the strong enemy, which not only has the ferocity of the cavalry of Xue Rengao of the Western Qin, but also has the tenacity and tenacity of the Song Jingang troops. In addition, the mobility of the steppe Turkic cavalry is not lost, and the elite of the Xuanjia cavalry can be called the best of the Tang Dynasty.
Due to Wang Shichong's insistence, no matter how Li Shimin quickly attacked the city and conquered the whole territory of Henan, he could not mobilize Wang Shichong's main force. So, Li Shimin simply took this elite army, away from the camp tent of the army, directly into the enemy's territory, while spying on the environment, may not have the idea of showing off the power of the surrounding Wang Shichong troops, Wang Shichong is stoic, his troops are elite, and the combat power is also very high, but in the face of Li Shimin's provocation and repeated strict orders to stick to it, the blow to morale will of course be extremely huge, and with such a Xuanjia cavalry team in hand, Li Shimin believes that even if Wang Shichong's army is exhausted, in the terrain of the Great Plain of Luoyang, He was also able to fight through the siege safely, so he had nothing to fear.
Then, unexpectedly but reasonably, Li Shimin was ambushed by Wang Shichong's army.
After all, Wang Shichong is a strongman who once defeated Li Mi in a decisive battle, and the previous concession and weakness were just to confuse the Tang Army, just as he had confused Li Mi in the past, when the Tang Army was pressing, Wang Shichong chose passive resistance on the surface, but inside, he was secretly accumulating strength, waiting for Li Shimin's fatal blow, and at this time, when Li Shimin only led a cavalry deep into the battle line and appeared in front of him, Wang Shichong thought that his opportunity had come. So, he immediately gathered all his cavalry, the number reached as many as 30,000, and then divided into three roads, and outflanked Li Shimin's team, wanting to capture the commander of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop. And when the outer scouts of the Tang army found out that Wang Shichong's army was coming, the armies of the two sides were already very close, and a big battle was about to break out.
Li Shimin immediately adjusted the formation of the whole army and prepared to storm the ground formation, for the young commander, on the battlefield, there is nothing that can make him retreat, however, the enemy army is large, with a small number of cavalry to face the enemy in the middle of the army, of course, it is looking for death, Li Shimin is aiming at the direction of the enemy's loose left flank. As the enemy army got closer and closer, Li Shimin seemed extremely calm, and because of this calmness, none of the military horses under his command appeared to be flustered. And soon, with the approach of the enemy, the face of the leader of the enemy army gradually appeared in front of Li Shimin, it was a very different appearance from the Central Plains, high nose and deep eyes, blonde hair and blue eyes, although he has passed the age of confusion, but his appearance is still handsome, judging from his appearance alone, he is a very attractive middle-aged man, it is Wang Shichong Undoubtedly, Li Shimin did not expect that in order to arrest himself, Wang Shichong actually came in person.
During the Great Cause years, Li Shimin, who was still a teenager, of course saw Wang Shichong, Li Shimin at that time was really young and vigorous, therefore, for Wang Shichong, who was appreciated by Yang Guang because of the construction of a gorgeous palace, he really looked down on him, thinking that he was just a traitor, until later, Yang Guangyanmen was besieged, Li Shimin took a group of friends to fight to the death for Yang Guang to relieve the siege, and then heard about Wang Shichong's affairs, only to have a great impression of this person.
During the siege of Yanmen, Wang Shichong, who was then the palace supervisor of Luoyang, organized all his strong men into an army, issued them weapons, and then took them all away to rescue Emperor Yang Guang, and during the march, Wang Shichong cried day and night for the safety of His Majesty, and even couldn't eat for it - therefore, although Wang Shichong did not catch up with that thrilling battle, it was in the hearts of the people of the world at that time. Wang Shichong changed at this time and became a loyal and filial son of the Great Sui, and even Emperor Yang Guang regarded him as a person who could be trusted.
And then. It is this loyal minister and filial son of the Great Sui, after the Jiangdu rebellion killed Yang Guang, and Li Yuan in Guanzhong abolished the acting king Yang Yu and established himself as the emperor, he abolished the last emperor of the Great Sui who insisted on the eastern capital, Yang Tong, the emperor of Tai, established himself as the emperor, and the country name Zheng, and in order to prevent the ministers who were originally loyal to the Sui Dynasty from rebelling, Wang Shichong cruelly poisoned Yang Tong to death, and this was after Li Yuan became emperor. He didn't dare to do anything to Yang Yu, the acting king, who was only fifteen years old when he died.
A person's disguise may be able to deceive one person in a lifetime, or it can deceive all people in a period of time, however, he will definitely not deceive all people in all the time, after the Battle of Yanmen. Li Shimin did mistakenly think that Wang Shichong would be a loyal and filial son, however. With the passage of time, especially after his true form in Luoyang is revealed, not only Li Shimin, but all the people in the world will no longer be deceived by him.
Li Shimin finally gave the order to charge, so. The cavalry, which was originally motionless like a mountain, instantly turned into a torrent like a fierce tiger, and pounced on the left flank of the enemy, and then. Fiercely tore open the opponent's line, the follow-up cavalry followed up in turn, under the unstoppable charge, along the first breakthrough, is extremely fast to defeat the left wing of Wang Shichong's army, several left wing generals tried in vain to stabilize the line, but the forward immediately pounced on it, the waves that dared to block one by one, almost in an instant, Wang Shichong's left wing of about 10,000 people has completely collapsed, it can be seen that the combat power of Li Shimin's Xuanjia cavalry team is strong.
Seeing that the Xuanjia cavalry had opened the passage to break through, and Wang Shichong's other two armies were too late to stop, I saw a brave general suddenly rush out from Wang Shichong's Chinese army, and was riding a horse towards the left wing at a very fast speed. Launched an attack towards the place where Li Shimin was, and some Xuanjia cavalry along the way wanted to stop him, but they were waved by him one after another, and they fell to the ground with one blow, so they rushed in almost unstoppable, and they soon came to Li Shimin.
At this time, Wang Shichong's left-wing army formation had already collapsed, only a small number of Wang Shichong's diehards were still insisting on fighting with the Tang army, and most of the rest of the army were fleeing in a hurry, and Li Shimin's Xuanjia cavalry was still unstoppable, however, because of the chaos of the Wang army, the formation had to be affected, and it was not as strict as the party, and this flaw was captured by Shan Xiongxin, just in an instant, I saw him suddenly rush into the Tang army formation, and a golden nail jujube yang lance in his hand waved, as if the god possessed the body, The blockers were invincible, and at this time, behind Shan Xiongxin, a group of soldiers also gathered, and these soldiers were all Wang Shichong's elite loyalists on the left flank, and at this time, these elite soldiers followed behind the fierce general, bravely moving forward to split the Tang army's military formation.
Li Shimin was also taken aback, as early as before, when the other party rushed into battle, he already knew the name of the other party, but he didn't expect that the other party's bravery was beyond imagination, saying that it was too late and that was fast, Shan Xiongxin had approached the front, Li Shimin subconsciously raised the bow and arrow in his hand and shot, but was dodged by Shan Xiongxin two arrows in a row, after waving the weapon to block the last arrow, Shan Xiongxin had already come to Li Shimin's full front, and the lance was about to hit Li Shimin's body, and Li Shimin had no time to react at this time, I had to use the longbow in my hand to resist, fortunately, Li Shimin's strength was outstanding, so the bow used was also a very strong hard bow, although Shan Xiongxin's golden nail jujube yang lance was powerful, but under a blow, it could still be blocked, but, what about after a blow?
At this moment of crisis, I heard a voice shouting: "Hugh injured King Qin, Wei Chi Jingde is here!" I saw an extremely burly man who seemed to burst into a bear suddenly rushed out, rushed up, and saw Wei Chigong waving the steel whip in his hand, and fiercely met the ambitious golden nail jujube yang lance, and then, he heard a loud bang, which exploded fiercely in the entire military formation.
It is rumored that there is such a story during the Three Kingdoms period, called "Xu Chu naked fighting Ma Chao", which tells the story of Cao Cao's westward expedition, Cao Cao's subordinate general Xu Chu and Ma Chao, a famous general who divided Xiliang at that time. The two fought for more than 100 rounds without winning or losing, so that later Xu Chu killed the rise, unloaded his armor all over his body, and went into battle shirtless to fight to the death with Ma Chao, so that everyone who was present and watching was dumbfounded, deeply impressed by the bravery of these two people, and in the end, Xu Chu was even more ruthless, throwing away his weapon and grabbing Ma Chao's spear, and the opponent's foot strength, both of them were famous generals at the time, brave and brave, so in the end, Ma Chao's sturdy wooden spear was broken into two sections.
Just like Ma Chao's spear, at this time Shan Xiongxin's golden nail jujube yang lance was also broken into two, there was no way, although Shan Xiongxin's martial arts were not inferior to Wei Chi Gong, however, although his golden nail jujube yang lance was powerful, it was made of jujube wood, and it was naturally invincible when encountering ordinary generals and soldiers, but the person he met this time was the brave and brave Yu Chi Gong, and Yu Chi Gong's weapon was a whole steel whip made of pure steel, so in the violent collision of the two wielding their weapons and going all out, The golden nail jujube yang lance made by Shan Xiongxin jujube wood suffered a big loss, and was waved by the brave and fierce Yu Chi Gong, and it was broken into two sections.
You must know that weapons are a part of a general's life, although Shan Xiongxin himself was not injured in the slightest, but the damage to the weapon in his hand, the golden nail jujube yang lance, the psychological blow to this brave general is immeasurable, therefore, Shan Xiongxin lost the courage to continue fighting, he instead pulled the reins of the war horse, turned the horse's head and left quickly, and the Tang army fought after this false alarm, naturally, he did not dare to force such a brave general too much.
At this point, the Tang army had no obstacles on the road to break through, although Wang Shichong's other two military horses had also chased behind the Tang army's ass at this time, but in the face of not only the attack was extremely fierce, the stubbornness was extremely tenacious, and the Tang army Xuanjia cavalry team was also very mobile when it escaped, Wang Shichong had nothing but to eat ashes.
