Yu Ming, under the escort of several ironclad elite horsemen, urged the horse forward, and when he was only a few zhang away from the Xia army, Fang stopped, and he shouted loudly: "King Xia is here?" ”

At this time, he shouted loudly, and then used his internal force, which could be heard within a radius of several miles. The nearly 200,000 soldiers on both sides who were present heard it clearly. Looking at the young and handsome His Royal Highness King Zhou, the Xia soldiers all showed awe on their faces. For Yuming, they can be said to be like thunder, conquering Goryeo and defeating the Turks, and their deeds have long been spread in the world.

In Dou Jiande's army, some of the soldiers were the original Hebei army, who had experienced the battle of Hejian County half a year ago and had a huge fear of the Zhou army. And those soldiers who were originally soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, many of them participated in the expedition to Goryeo, and they admired Yuming even more.

Heroes have always been admirable!

Before the battle started, Dou Jiande had already lost points in terms of momentum.

Dou Jiande was in the crowd of the Xia army, and he was at a loss for a while, he knew that it was not a good thing to talk to Yu Ming in front of the soldiers of the two armies, Yu Ming's eloquence was very good, and he would definitely be at a disadvantage in the exchange of words.

But now I can't help but rush forward. Because he knew that if he didn't dare to step forward, it would mean showing weakness, which meant that he, the "King of Xia", would not dare to deal with the "King of Zhou" face to face. Will it further reduce the already low morale of your own army, so do you still need to fight this battle?

But if he stepped forward, Dou Jiande knew that Yuming would never have anything good to say, and maybe he would belittle himself again. So, he secretly thought in his heart that he must deal with it carefully this time.

Although Yu Ming is young, his command and actions on the battlefield are very rigorous and sophisticated, and he will hardly leave any flaws for himself to take advantage of. Even if there is a flaw, it is often found to be a trap afterwards. For example, the battle in Hejian County is an example, I thought that the two women Red Sleeves and Yu Yuqing were guarding the camp, and the troops were small, so they could have time to drill. But who knew that it was Li Jing who was in command, and there were 20,000 more people than he knew.

Therefore, Yu Ming is really a very formidable opponent, definitely stronger than his old Yu Huaji. Dou Jiande only felt that his head hurt a little again.

He also swung his whip and struck the black war horse under his seat, urging the horse forward. He was wearing a black helmet and black armor, which contrasted sharply with Yuming's white helmet and white armor.

Dou Jiande also walked to the front of the Xia army, and then said loudly: "I don't know what His Royal Highness King Zhou is looking for this king?" ”

Yu Ming showed a smile on his face at this time and said: "King Xia was originally just a lieutenant, because he was dissatisfied with the **** of the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, he was angry and raised an incident, killed the magistrates of the Sui Dynasty, opened a warehouse to help grain, and defeated the officials and troops who came to encircle and suppress the Sui Dynasty many times, and vowed to let the surname of the world live a stable life......"

His voice was melodious and clear, and the soldiers on both sides heard it very clearly, and felt that Yu Mingguo had a great general's style, and when he was so tense, he was still calm and calm, talking and laughing in front of the two armies. But what is his intention when he mentions Dou Jiande's exploits in the past? There was some astonishment on everyone's faces.

Dou Jiande has a complicated vision, although the soldiers are meeting each other now, the big war is imminent. But Yuming's words reminded him of the past.

He was originally a native of Zhangnan County, Beizhou (now northeast of the ancient city of Hebei). When I was young, I took the fulfillment of my promises very seriously. There was once a fellow villager who died of his parents, and his family was poor and unable to be buried, Dou Jiande was plowing the field at that time, and sighed when he heard it, and immediately put down his farm work and took the initiative to send all the belongings needed for the funeral, so he was praised by the villagers. Originally, he was a lieutenant governor, but he escaped because of a crime, and he only returned home when he encountered an amnesty from the imperial court. When his father died, more than 1,000 people were buried, and all those who gave gifts would not accept them.

In the seventh year of the Great Cause (611), the imperial court recruited troops to conquer Goryeo, and the county selected brave and excellent people to be the leaders, so Dou Jiande was appointed as the chief of the two. At that time, there was a flood in Shandong, most of the surnames fled to the famine, there was a Sun Anzu in the same county, the house and property were washed away by the flood, and his wife and children died of hunger. The county took a fancy to Sun Anzu's courage and also selected him into the team. Sun Anzu was reluctant to enlist in the army on the grounds of family poverty, and said to the Zhangnan county commander in person that the county commander lost his temper and beat him severely, Sun Anzu killed the county commander, fled to Dou Jiande, and Dou Jiande took him in.

In this year, there was a famine in Shandong, and Dou Jiande said to Sun Anzu: "When the emperor was in power, the world was rich and prosperous, and he sent 10,000 people to conquer Liaodong, but he was defeated by Goryeo. There was a flood this year, the surname was poor, but the emperor was not sympathetic to the people's feelings, and he had to personally go to Liaodong to supervise the war, plus the western expedition in previous years, the vitality of the damage has not yet recovered, the surname is tired and sleepy, and the people who have been away for many years cannot go home, and now they have to send troops, which is easy to cause ****. As long as the male husband does not die, he should make meritorious contributions, how can he be a prisoner who escaped in a hurry. I am familiar with the vast area of Gaojibo and the dense and deep grass on the lake and marsh, so I can go there to hide, find an opportunity to come out and rob, have enough to live and save, and after pulling up the people, wait for the turbulence of the times, and will inevitably do something earth-shattering. ”

Sun Anzu agreed with his plan, so he proposed that Dou Jiande recruit and lure villagers who had evaded conscription and had no property, got a few people, and let Sun Anzu lead them to Gaojibo as a grass coward, and Sun Anzu called himself a general. Zhang Jin, a native of Juan County, said that he had also invited the Venerable Master to carry out activities in the dangerous waters of the Yellow River.

Gao Shida, a native of Qixian County, rebelled again, recruited more than 1,000 people, and carried out activities in the area of Qinghe County. At that time, the bandits who traveled to and from Zhangnan County slaughtered and robbed local surnames and burned houses, but they were not harassed by Dou Jiande's hometown. Therefore, the county expected that Dou Jiande colluded with the bandits, so they arrested his family members and killed them both young and old. Dou Jiande heard that his entire family had been killed, and led two of his men to escape and join Gao Shida. Gao Shida called himself the Duke of the East China Sea and appointed Dou Jiande as a soldier. Later, Sun Anzu was killed by Zhang Jincheng, and all his thousands of soldiers defected to Dou Jiande. Since then, it has gradually grown, and the team has grown to more than 10,000 people, and it is still active in the Gaojibo area. He often gave all his possessions to help others, and he endured hardships like a soldier, so he could inspire people to work hard for him.

The Sui court sent Yang Yichen, a servant, to lead more than 10,000 people to crusade against the Hebei rebels, and successively killed Zhang Jincheng and Gao Shida. He thinks there is no problem in defeating Dou Jiande.

But Dou Jiande took advantage of his unpreparedness to return to Pingyuan County, packed up the bodies of the dead who followed Gao Shida, buried them, and held a funeral for Gao Shida, and the whole army wore white mourning clothes. He recruited the scattered soldiers, got a few thousand, the army was invigorated again, and Dou Jiande began to call himself a general. At the beginning, the bandits killed all the officials and local gentry of the Sui Dynasty when they caught them, but Dou Jiande caught them and must treat them with courtesy. At first, he got Song Zhengben, the magistrate of Raoyang County, as a distinguished guest, and discussed the plan with him. After that, the governors of the counties of the Sui Dynasty gradually surrendered to him, and the army became more prosperous, with more than 100,000 elite soldiers.

With the growth of strength, Dou Jiande's ambition is also getting bigger and bigger, and he gradually has the ambition to dominate the world and become the emperor. However, just as he was about to chase the Central Plains, Yuming stabbed out of Liaodong, defeated him, and forced him to live in Shandong. Recalling the most proud past in the past, Dou Jiande couldn't help but sigh.

Yu Ming continued at this time: "I think that King Xia was also full of ambition to rescue the majority of Li Min surnames and let everyone live a good life, at this point, our thoughts are the same. Today's battle can actually be avoided, as long as King Xia and his subordinate generals are loyal to my Great Zhou, this king can guarantee that all the past things are not to blame, so that our soldiers on both sides can avoid a war with heavy casualties. I wonder if King Xia is willing? ”

Yuming's attitude is very sincere, and his words are indeed moving. The generals and soldiers of the Xia army were a little moved.

After Dou Jiande heard this, he laughed loudly, and the sound shook the four wilds, he knew that it was impossible for Yuming to forgive him. After all, Yuhua and Yucheng all died at his hands. Yu Ming just said this on purpose, trying to shake his military heart. But these words of his are not easy to refute.

So, Dou Jiande smiled and said, "Yuming, don't you think your thoughts are ridiculous?" I think that at the moment, I, the King of Xia, and you, the King of Zhou, are already like fire and water, if we tie our hands and put our fate in your hands, isn't life and death only in your thoughts? Kill if you want, kill if you want, kill if you want. Right now, you're saying it nicely, how much can you cash out if you really vote for it? ”

"Since you are so compassionate and compassionate, your words of hypocrisy and righteousness are heartwarming. Why don't you submit to me? I can also guarantee that the past is not to blame. I don't know what you think? Hahaha! ”

Dou Jiande laughed wildly, and the laughter was earth-shattering, which calmed down the already somewhat wavering minds of the generals of the Xia Army again. They felt that what Dou Jiande said also made some sense. How many promises were made before surrender and fulfilled after surrender? Bai Qi also promised not to kill prisoners when the Zhao army surrendered. Afterwards, it was not that all the 400,000 Zhao troops were killed. And Yuming's official position is just afraid that it has been almost arranged. Even if you and others return to the past, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reuse them all. In case Yuming is not at ease, he can take his life by making an excuse.

Yu Ming was not annoyed, just shook his head and sighed: "Dou Jiande." It's not this king who is ridiculous, it's you! Do you think that now that you have two more troops than me, you can compete with my Zhou army? ”

Dou Jiande restrained his smile and snorted coldly: "Although this battle hasn't started yet, I think your chances of winning are still very small." Can you scare me by putting on a posture of breaking the boat? As long as I storm without casualties, what are your chances of winning? Don't think that only you, the Zhou army, are elite troops! My army isn't vegetarian either! ”
