Liu Heimin was very happy when he saw the people in the city breaking through, and ordered his soldiers: "I met a woman and a child to catch them alive!" ”

Liu Heimin's army seemed to be a demon from hell, with a strong aura of slaughter, sweeping all over the world. In the face of such a powerful opponent, none of the Tang army flinched, and rushed to kill with Luo Shixin. Liu Heimin's army killed and poured in like locusts, blood stained the snow all over the ground, and the entire battlefield was like a Shura hell.

The Tang army was few and gradually unable to support it, but Luo Shixin still bravely rushed forward to kill. At this time, he has become the target of the enemy, because Zixuan is not easy to recognize in men's clothes, but everyone can see him holding the child. A large number of enemy troops surrounded Luo Shixin, Luo Shixin brandished a long sword, the sword and sword were not in vain, but there were too many enemies, and soon, there were wounds everywhere on his arms and legs.

Li Ke followed Zixuan's instructions, did not cry or make trouble, and obediently hid in Luo Shixin's arms. Zixuan was on the horse of the soldiers behind, watching Luo Shixin get injured again and again, and worried.

At this moment, rumbling war drums and shouts of killing sounded behind Liu Heimin's army, and it was the people of the world who came to answer! Liu Heimin was attacked by the enemy on his back and was forced to fight on two fronts, but he still did not give up, he thought that as long as he caught Zixuan or Li Ke, he could take Li Shimin's life, so he desperately resisted.

When Luo Shixin saw that the reinforcements had arrived, he rushed even harder, and the war horse under his crotch rushed forward like flying. Seeing that he could already see the banner of King Qin, Luo Shixin smiled, and sandwiched the horse's belly with his legs, but this time, the horse did not run out, but was cut off by the enemy, and Luo Shixin rolled to the ground with Li Ke in his arms. Several of the enemy soldiers gathered around them, laughing fiercely, and one of them said, "Give the boy over and spare your life." ”

"Don't think about it." Luo Shixin glared angrily, stabbed the man with a sword, and stabbed the man off his horse. When the people next to him saw that Luo Shixin was so heroic, they didn't dare to be careless, and several people besieged Luo Shixin, and someone pierced his chest with a sword.

Luo Shixin knelt on the ground with a sword in one hand, and hugged Li Ke tightly with the other, blood gushed out of his body like a spring, and his strength gradually withdrew from his body.

"General Luo, you're injured!" Li Ke in his arms touched Luo Shixin's blood-covered face with his small hand.

Luo Shixin said: "It's okay, Your Highness, the last general will not let them hurt you." ”

Li Ke decisively pulled out the dagger that Luo Shixin was carrying, "General Luo, I'll protect you." Saying that, Li Ke, who was only four years old, held a dagger in his hand, turned around, and said to the enemy: "My father is Li Shimin, the king of Qin, and I am not afraid of you." ”

When the enemy soldier heard this, he burst into laughter, "Your Highness, you're looking for you." Saying that, someone reached out to grab Li Ke, Luo Shixin tried his last bit of strength, and cut off the man's arm with a sword. But at the same time, the enemy's swords slashed at Luo Shixin in unison, and a generation of generals fell.

"Ke'er!" Zixuan, who caught up later, happened to see this scene, and regardless of the obstruction of the Tang soldiers, he jumped off his horse, ran to Li Ke's side, and hugged him tightly.

"Mother." Ke'er screamed. The enemy army was even more excited, thinking that it would be a great achievement to catch Li Ke, but he didn't expect this princess to come to the door. The soldiers of the Tang army desperately protected the princess and the little highness, but they were outnumbered and wounded.

Is it really going to be arrested by Liu Heimin, Zixuan's heart jumped suddenly, Shimin, where are you?

When the last Tang soldier fell, a man with a big belly and a meaty face came over and said to Zixuan: "I am Liu Heimin, the king of Handong, and the conditions in Luoshui County are not good, so I specially invite the princess and the little palace to go to Zhaozhou to rest." ”

Zixuan stood up, hugged Ke'er, and looked at each other angrily, "Liu Heimin, don't say it so nicely, don't you just want to use us to blackmail King Qin?" Even if our mother and son die here today, they will never become a burden to King Qin, and they will not let you succeed. ”

"It's not up to you." As soon as Liu Heimin waved his hand, his soldiers were about to come to capture Zixuan. At this moment, I saw an extra-large arrow whistling in the wind, hitting one of them in the face. Then a few more arrows, and several people from the Handong army approaching Zixuan fell to the ground. It's the people of the world! It's the people who are coming! Zixuan recognized his arrows, arrows that were several times larger than others!

The sound of hooves shook the sky, and the snow came, and it was the reinforcements of the Tang Army who arrived. Liu Heimin quickly organized a resistance of men and horses, and the two sides fought together. Shimin couldn't take care of it, and rushed straight towards Zixuan, so how could Liu Heimin let him get his wish, taking advantage of Shimin's unpreparedness, a shot pierced Shimin's horse's belly, and the fifth Qinghu of the six horses of Zhaoling died on the battlefield like this. Shimin turned over, rolled off the horse, and came to Zixuan just in front of her, hugging her tightly, "Zixuan, are you okay?" ”

Where can Liu Heimin allow them to catch up, and another shot came at the people, only to hear the sound of "bell", Liu Heimin's gun was shaken open by a big axe. "His grandmother's, eat your grandfather Cheng's axe!" Cheng Yanjin wielded a big axe to fight Liu Heimin.

"Second Highness, get on the horse!"

Shimin looked back and saw that it was Wei Chi Jingde, who led a horse that he had taken out of nowhere, and Shimin didn't think much about it, so he quickly took Zixuan and Ke'er on the horse.

Jingde said: "Second Highness, you go first, I will cushion behind, it is important to rescue Zixuan and His Royal Highness." ”

Shimin nodded, patted his horse and left.

The two sides were tied in this battle: Liu Heimin recaptured Luoshui County; Li Shimin rescued Zixuan and Li Ke.

In the war, there were many casualties on both sides, and many generals on the Tang Army's side also hung up their colors. Only Qin Qiong captured a lot of enemy troops in the battle, and even captured a BMW and dedicated it to the people. This horse has a black mouth and yellow hair around it, and it is the last horse of the six horses of Zhaoling - the fist hair.

It's a pity that before Liu Heimin's ass was hot in Lishui County, Li Shimin led the army to fight again, and four days later, Li Shimin recaptured Lishui County again. At the beginning of March, Li Yixuan's army arrived on the south bank of the river and joined forces with Li Shimin. Although Liu Heimin repeatedly counterattacked, he was no longer able to return to the sky, and the water was firmly controlled by the Tang army, and Liu Heimin fell into a desperate situation.

On March 26, Liu Heimin, who was forced to be helpless, fought a decisive battle with the Tang army. Liu Heimin led 20,000 cavalry, crossed the river in the south, and pressed the Tang army camp. Shimin personally led the Xuanjia army to attack Liu Heimin's cavalry first, defeated it, and took advantage of the victory to rush into the position of the Eastern Han army and sweep its infantry. Liu Heimin knew that if he lost this battle, it would be difficult to have a chance to turn over, so he led the Handong army to fight to the death. For a time, the horses neighed and the people shouted, the sound of killing shook the wilderness, and the earth shook the mountains.

The battle was unprecedentedly fierce, until twilight fell, and the Handong army gradually could not support it, so it had to flee to the north bank of the river. When Liu Heimin led the army to the shore of the water, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice: God help me! The water level of the river was so low that cavalry and infantry could wade through it without the need to prepare rafts.

The opportunity could not be lost, and the Handong army hurriedly went down the river. The water was not too wide, and the front army quickly reached the opposite bank, but unfortunately, they were immediately met by the Tang army, and the Handong army was forced to retreat back into the riverbed. At this moment, a rumbling roar was heard from a distance, as if thousands of troops were coming through the field. Liu Heimin followed the prestige, oh my God! It's water, it's the waves that collapse downstream, like a city wall!

This is Li Shimin's version of the "Flooded Seventh Army", early on, Shimin ordered people to build a dam in the upper reaches of the river to intercept the river, in order to give Liu Heimin a fatal blow at this time. In the blink of an eye, all the Handong troops in the river valley were swallowed up by the flood, and those who had not had time to escape into the river and stay on the south bank were almost completely wiped out by the Tang army.

In this battle, the Handong army was "beheaded more than 10,000 people and drowned thousands", almost the entire army was annihilated, and Liu Heimin only fled to the Turks with more than 200 cavalry.
