Outside Hongnong City, several Tang Army scouts wandered casually in the wilderness, not noticing that danger was quietly approaching.

Whoosh!!

In the dark night, several sharp arrows suddenly flew out, and the arrows pierced through the throat, and several Tang army probing horses fell from the horses without saying a word.

Two imposing Sui generals came out of the shadows, and one of them arched his hand towards the other general and said, "Hehe, General Yang is good at archery!" ”

The general Yang smiled slightly, clenched his fists and said, "Where is it?" How can my little bit of archery be compared to General Huyan? ”

The two people who spoke were Yang Yanzhao's nephew Yang Shihan and Hu Yanzhuo's brother-in-law Hu Yanzan, both of whom were characters who came in and out of Yang Gao's summoning process, and they were all implanted into Yang Yanzhao's command by the system.

"There's no need to be humble to each other at this time." Yang Yan Zhaoce immediately stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Right now, we should hurry up and capture Hongnong. Hongnong City is strong, and Wang Shichong used this city to resist the Tang army for nearly a year. If the Tang army in the city had discovered us, the arduous march of more than a month would have been in vain. ”

"Yes!" Yang Shihan and Hu Yanzan each arched their hands, and led the army to gallop towards Hongnong City.

Yang Yanzhao turned his head and continued to order: "Yang Yansi, Shang Shifu, Zhou Ben, and Xin Wenli will listen to the order and order you to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to surround the four gates, don't let Li Yuanji go!" ”

The four fierce generals urged the horse forward together, and gave the order: "The last general obeys the order!" ”

"Let's go!"

Yang Yanzhao waved his horse whip and led the follow-up main force to slowly approach Hongnong City.

Hu Yanzan and Yang Shihan only defected to Yang Yanzhao in the past two years, the situation in Jingxiang at that time had stabilized, and there was no war in the south. Yang Yanzhao understood the thoughts of the two and also knew the abilities of the two, so he ordered the other four generals to block the periphery and only take these two generals into the city, in order to put the credit for capturing Hongnong and capturing Li Yuanji alive on their heads.

Yang Shihan and Hu Yanzan also knew this, and while secretly grateful to Yang Yanzhao, they also made up their minds to capture Li Yuanji alive in this battle!

"Give it to me!"

Yang Shihan and Hu Yanzan led the leading troops to quickly rush to the city of Hongnong, and immediately stretched out their hands, dozens of soldiers with hook locks quickly stepped forward, threw upwards, hooked the battlements, and then climbed up to the city with their hands and feet along the ropes.

Since Wang Shichong was killed, there has been no war in Hongnong City, and there are more than 100,000 Tang troops led by Li Shimin on the Luoyang front, and the defenders in the city are already vigilant. In addition, Li Yuanji was greedy for pleasure and did not govern the army strictly, so there were a few patrols on the city, and most of them were still napping on the city stomp.

After the soldiers of the Sui army climbed up the city tower, they quickly turned to the sentry on the head of the city, and went down to the city tower to open the city gate.

"Soldiers, kill in and capture Li Yuanji alive!"

Seeing the city gate wide open, Hu Yanzan and Yang Shihan roared in unison, and rushed into the city first.

"Ding Dong, Yang Shihan has been detected to be in the lead, force +5, base force 101, and the current force has risen to 106."

"Ding Dong, it was detected that Huyanzan has entered a state of bravery, force +4, base force 99, and the current force has risen to 103."

In front of the Sui army camp in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, Yang Gao, who had just laid down to rest, heard the prompt sound of the system in his mind, and immediately turned over, with a look of joy on his face, and said: "It seems that Yang Yanzhao's department has killed Hongnong." Li Shimin, how long can you still spend time in the Tiger Prison and I? ”

It was Chen Ping's suggestion to call Yang Yanzhao's troops to raid Hongnong, and this suggestion was also approved by Liu Bowen and his friend Xi Zhicai, who was recommended by Liu Bowen, but Chen Ping's proposal to send sailors north to the Yellow River to cut off the connection between the Tang army and Hedong County and completely trap Li Shimin's army in Luoyang was unanimously opposed by Liu Bowen and Xi Zhicai.

Liu Bowen and Xi Zhicai believed that Li Shimin had an army of 150,000 under his command, all of which were elites who had followed him for many years. If they completely cut off their retreat, according to Li Shimin's temperament, they will inevitably choose to fight with the Sui army, and even if they can completely annihilate the main force of the Tang army at that time, it will inevitably be a big loss of vitality, and it will be difficult to make a big move in three or five years, but it will only cheapen Zhu Yuanzhang, Temujin and others.

After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Gao finally decided not to send the sailors north, and let go of Hedong to leave a way for Li Shimin to retreat. People are lucky, if there is no way to retreat, everyone will fight to the death in a desperate situation, but if they find that there is a way to retreat, they will choose to run for their lives, and when the time comes, they only need to chase and kill, and it is still not small.

As the saying goes, you have to eat one bite at a time, and although it seems very tempting to annihilate 150,000 Tang troops at one time, it is actually too risky, and one accidentally makes a wedding dress for others.

。。。。。。。。。。

Hongnong City, the city gate was broken, tens of thousands of Sui troops swarmed in like a tide, and the Tang soldiers were attacked in their sleep, and they were suddenly in chaos. The cavalry of the Sui army galloped wantonly through the streets, wielding their swords wantonly, killing the heads of the Tang soldiers and the corpses all over the field.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

In Li Yuanji's bedroom, Yu Wenxin strode in despite the obstruction of his own soldiers outside the door, but saw Li Yuanji lying naked beside him, and the two dancing girls, who were also without a strand of body, one left and one right, were curled up under Li Yuanji's arms.

Yu Wenxin couldn't help but be furious when he saw this, and raised his voice when he landed: "Your Highness, your eyebrows are burned, and you still have the heart to have fun!" ”

Yu Wenxin's roar finally woke Li Yuanji up. He opened his eyes dimly, and couldn't help but be angry when he saw Yu Wenxin in front of him, and shouted: "Yu Wenxin, you are so bold, you dare to break into the lonely bedroom?" ”

Yu Wenxin snorted coldly and said, "Your Highness, if it weren't for the urgency of the situation, the minister wouldn't want to break into His Highness's bedroom, let alone see such a scene of promiscuous scenes!" ”

"You..."

Li Yuanji was furious when he heard this, but this anger also made him wake up from his hazy state, and the shouts of killing outside reached his ears. He forced the anger in his chest and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" ”

"The Sui army raided Hongnong and captured the city gate, and now it has entered the city." Yu Wenxin looked at Li Yuanji with some annoyance, if it weren't for the fact that this person was not strict and indulged in wine all day long, the city gate would not have been lost so easily.

"What, the Sui army has already entered the city?"

Li Yuanji didn't notice the anger and dissatisfaction in Yu Wenxin's eyes at this time, when he heard Yu Wenxin say that the Sui army had entered the city, he suddenly remembered the last time he was captured, he was beaten by Chang Yuchun's reckless man with thirty military sticks, only to feel that his buttocks began to ache faintly again, and he immediately climbed out of bed with a roll, and said loudly while wearing his clothes and armor: "Quick, go find Li Guiren quickly, and let him hurry over to escort Gu Gu to escape from danger!" ”
