"As soon as General Qu came, he successfully turned the tide of the battle and defeated the Li family's army!" Xiao Huaijing flattered.

"That is, no matter how many we die, there is still a strong supplement in the rear, and the Li family army is only 50,000 people, and after they die, it will be difficult to raise a big storm."

In order to cover the retreat of the Li family's army, trebuchets were projected one after another, which slightly slowed down the attack of the Sui army, and the Li family's army was able to retreat.

If you look closely, you can see that the prepared stone is half of the cloud.

Li Jiajun of Fathershang County took a breath, and the dense Sui army rushed over desperately, but the Li Jiajun guarding the door was scared out of the sky.

These Sui soldiers were all like taking medicine, and their eyes were blood-red.

"Close the door, close the door!"

The centurion hastened to order the door to be shut, and as soon as he closed it, he heard the sound of spears poking at the gates, and it was as dense as rain.

They also did not use heavy siege machinery such as siege logs, and tried in vain to pierce the heavy oak doors with their spears.

This kind of crazy behavior made Li Jiajun break out in a cold sweat all over his body, and between the skins, he could see the other party's breeding expression.

After about an hour and a half, a spear finally pierced into the wooden door, followed by several more spears.

Several Li Jiajun behind the door were accidentally stabbed and seriously injured.

The centurion went to ask General Lang, who was stationed in his father's county, for instructions, and the other party also wiped the sweat from his head every once in a while.

When he made a decision to abandon his father and retreat to Shangxian, a large number of Sui troops rushed in, and the city gate was full of holes, and they were stabbed by them.

I had already seen the crazy Sui army on the battlefield, and they were also scared when they looked at it, and they didn't need to be ordered by General Lang, they rushed to retreat, all of them were like anxious ghosts.

Fortunately, the withdrawal was fast enough, otherwise the Li family army was afraid that there would be no survivors, and if this was the case, there were more than 300 Li family soldiers killed and injured in Fathershang County.

"Sui Jun is crazy, Sui Jun is crazy!" This is a saying that circulates in the Li family's army.

In less than a morning, the battle line that the Sui army had lost before was snatched back by them.

In the face of such a crisis, all the generals, including Li Shimin, urgently convened a meeting.

Xia Yu didn't come, he seemed to be unwilling to meet with the generals because of the tragedy in the mountain village.

Li Yuan didn't point it out, but just beckoned the generals to sit down, three stinkers, and one Zhuge Liang, and he didn't believe that he couldn't discuss a countermeasure.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current Sui army has suddenly become bloodthirsty and belligerent, and with the combat strength of our army, it is not their opponent at all. Brainstorming a way to turn us back. ”

The generals looked at each other, silent for a while, and there was a sad situation of thousands of horses.

Until now, they were still in shock, and the Sui army was like going crazy overnight.

After the tea effort, no one has spoken, Li Yuan is angry in his heart.

"General Luo, you once served in the Sui army, why don't you talk about it."

"In Luo's opinion, the Sui army changed generals, and the current main general is named Qu Butong, who is Qu Tutong's second son, and everyone has heard of the murderous name of their father and son."

Of course, Li Yuan knew that when he was the Duke of Tang Guogong, he had followed Yang Guang to conquer Goryeo, and every time he went down to a city, they would pile up the Goryeo soldiers who died in battle, and build a magnificent Jingguan to show his military exploits.

Nodding his head unconsciously, Li Yuan motioned for Luo Yu to continue.

Luo Yu said: "Luo thinks that it is not suitable to start a war recently, our army can retreat thirty miles, relying on the mountain situation, so that the enemy does not dare to act rashly." ”

His words can be regarded as expressing the hearts of many generals, and most of them nodded in agreement.

Li Yuan hesitated, obviously thinking that he didn't want to see these words.

"Gong Li, I don't think this is feasible. If our army retreats, it means that if we advance further, we will have to increase the burden of grain and grass. If we fail to recover the lost territory, it will be a great loss to the morale of our army. This is absolutely not feasible! ”

As soon as Li Shimin's voice fell, the two elder brothers took the lead in nodding, which represented the views of a group of young generals, who were in full swing and were unwilling to admit defeat.

Li Yuan nodded subconsciously: "Then how can our army recover the previous gains now?" ”

Li Shimin couldn't pick it up, so he had to say vaguely: "I haven't thought of it yet." ”

The discussion was fruitless and deadlocked.

Even Li Yuan had to admit that although Xia Yu and them differed in some opinions, his role was irreplaceable by anyone.

After thinking about it, he pretended to ask casually: "Why didn't General Xia come?" I'll take a look. ”

The generals also believed that Xia Yu was the key person in reversing the situation at this time, and acquiesced to Li Yuan's condescension and went to invite Xia Yu.

At this time, the warrior said thoughtlessly: "What kind of person is Li Gong, he actually went to invite a general in person, what is this, you must not be like this." ”

Being found by the samurai, if Li Yuan went to invite Xia Yu, it would be a very embarrassing thing.

For a while, all the generals' eyes were focused on Li Yuan.

Tang Guogong deeply realized what it means to ride a tiger, please not, not please.

Samurai Xun seems to realize that he said something wrong, but since the words are spoken, he can't take them back.

At this time, the cowhide curtain of the main army tent was opened, Xia Yu stood at the door of the tent, and when he saw him coming, all the generals breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Yuan hurriedly explained the discussion of the generals just now to Xia Yu, and sincerely asked Xia Yu to give a suggestion.

Xia Yu didn't hide it: "Gong Li, when I woke up in the morning, I already saw the situation on the frontal battlefield, and I didn't have time to attend the meeting just now, because I had more important things to do." ”

"Oh?"

Xia Yu said calmly: "I just asked the blacksmith in the army to make hundreds of shields for swords, since it is impossible to use the means of strong attack, then we will use a defensive formation to move forward." I agree with Brother Shimin's opinion, we can only advance, never retreat! ”

These words can be regarded as a reassuring pill for Li Yuan, and he gave up the idea of retreating in his heart, once he retreats, if he wants to move forward, he will have to waste a large amount of grain and grass.

"I beg to lead the army forward tomorrow, and all the swords and soldiers will be led by me. Just get to the bottom of the moat and we'll have a huge advantage! ”

"Okay, built, you first give your talisman to General Xia, and he will lead the sword soldiers!"

"Slow, if General Xia fails, what about this. After all, attacking under the moat means that our Li family army will be in the archer coverage of Huoyi City. ”

Another Lang general put forward a different opinion, this is a war, and it is impossible to put the whole army in a disadvantageous position because of Xia Yu's words.

Xia Yu looked at Li Yuan, he was the supreme leader, Li Yuan said happily: "I believe in General Xia's ability, and this matter is decided." ”
