In the vast Guanzhong Plain in the night, a troop is galloping on horseback in the night, and the dust that the troops are stirring up in the night looks like an earthy dragon, wriggling in the white field. The pace of thousands of people and horses converged from far and near into a rustling sound like the flow of a river and the whispering of a river, which resounded throughout the night sky.

"Tell Your Majesty! At most, an army of two hours can reach Weiqiao. A commander quickly stepped forward and said to the new emperor Li Shimin, who would eventually be embraced.

"Okay, everyone quickly cross the Wei Bridge, and after crossing the bridge, quickly set up camp and set up defenses, and I want people to see a huge camp fortress before dawn."

At this time, Li Shimin commanded the generals in high spirits, and he could not see the impact of the two-day march on him at all, and he did not show fatigue at all.

And Yuesheng and Yue'e have been following Li Shimin's side for the past two days, and when they heard the military situation reported by everyone, they immediately crossed the horse and came to Li Shimin and said:

"Your Majesty, Yue'e and I want to leave the team and go to the front line to investigate and investigate, do you think it's okay?"

In fact, Yuesheng wanted to break away from the army, and then act at the opportunity to help Li Shimin solve the villain of Jieli Khan, as long as the Turkic dragons were leaderless, there would be chaos, and then the Tang army would have a chance to defeat the Turkic army.

Li Shimin naturally knew what Yuesheng meant, but he saw him smile at Yuesheng, and then shook his head.

"No need, with the current speed of the Turkic march, before noon tomorrow, the Turkic army will arrive at Weiqiao, we only need to do our work to keep it possible to retreat from the enemy, the so-called art of war is false and real, real and false, then Jieli will retreat. I know the worries of your brothers and sisters, and you are worried that my 100,000 cavalry is no match for the 350,000 Turkic army. ”

Yuesheng looked at Li Shimin with a wry smile, and also shook his head. Said to Li Shimin:

"It's too risky, it's too dangerous!"

"It's okay, I'm not worried at all with the two of you, even if I take 10,000 steps back, tomorrow's Turks can't be deterred by my arrangement, at least there are two of you who can protect me, my Tang army just didn't arrive in time, and it's not that there is no strength to fight." So as long as I don't fall, Datang will not be defeated. ”

Although everyone knew that this battle was very dangerous, Li Shimin's trip was a dangerous move, nothing more than to take it by surprise, so that the Turks could not see the layout of the Tang Dynasty army clearly, and did not dare to rush to send troops! Therefore, all of them were worried, but Li Shimin was high-spirited, ignoring the danger, not caring at all, pointing out the country and inspiring words, but he had the demeanor of a king of a country.

"Alright! Since you believe in us so much, then leave your safety to our brothers and sisters! Even if there is only one soldier left, you will definitely be safe. ”

Yuesheng is also helpless about this Li Shimin's inexplicable self-confidence now, but if it were him and put himself in his shoes, I am afraid that he would also make a desperate gamble and take a risk. After all, if it is successful, how many people will suffer from the war, if it is for their own safety, then once the war starts, it will definitely be ruined, and the entire Tang Dynasty will be affected.

Although everyone kept talking, the horses did not stop, and after two hours, the army finally came to the north of Weiqiao again. As soon as the bridge was crossed, the crowd began to set up camp and quickly moved.

As soon as the sky dawned, a brand-new camp was erected, because of Li Shimin's explanation, everyone not only set up a large camp for 100,000 people, but a large village enough for 200,000 people to live and ride, and horses could run in it without hindrance. The scale of the camp is large, stretching for several miles.

After two days of rushing and labor, the people were already exhausted, so the king of Qin ordered everyone to rest immediately after breakfast, and get up again when the Turkic army arrived, leaving only a few men and horses to guard the camp and wait for the arrival of the Turkic army.

Originally thought that the sun was three poles, the Turkic army would come, but it was until the sun was westward, and there was gray fog and dusty sky in front, and the forward troops of the Turkic army came, but they stopped when they saw the Tang army Dazhai from a distance, and when the twilight fell, the Turkic follow-up troops also arrived.

Because it was getting late and did not know the reality of the Tang army, the Turkic army also began to set up camp to prevent the Tang army from attacking and attacking at night.

Although the atmosphere was tense this night, both sides did not act rashly, the Tang army was pretending to hide deeply, while the Turkic army did not have the habit of fighting at night, therefore, a night was quite peaceful, the Tang soldiers after a day and a night of rest, at this time they were already full of energy, and they could not see a little fatigue and decadence, and restored the original appearance of the tiger and wolf division in the past.

The most important point is that after surviving a day and a night, the surrounding reinforcements are getting closer and closer to Weiqiao, and it is estimated that later, the nearest army led by Wei Chigong should be able to reach Weiqiao, and the Tang army also has an extra layer of support.

However, Li Shimin did not choose to wait for reinforcements, but beat the war drums when the army had breakfast, and led thousands of men and horses out of the camp with Yuesheng and Yue'e, and went straight to the direction of the Turkic army camp.

When the Turkic army camp was more than a mile away, it stopped, and then sent a soldier to the Turkic army to shout and let Najieli Khan come out and gather.

The war drums and men of the Tang army camp had already alarmed the Turkic army, but it was also surprising to see a team of about 1,000 people come out. Soon after the soldiers who had gone to shout returned, Najieli Khan also led thousands of men and horses to the opposite hill not far from Li Shimin and them.

"Jieli Pifu, why do you dare to ignore the covenant, go back on your word, and attack my Datang border again, do you want to fight with my Datang army? If we want to fight, how about we fight here today? ”

The king of Qin stood on his horse and loudly rebuked the Jieli Khan, who was faintly visible on the opposite hill. After the shouting, the soldiers who knew the Turkic language translated it into Turkic and repeated it aloud.

For Li Shimin's reprimand, Najieli Khan was very angry, but he couldn't understand the situation of the Tang Dynasty army at the moment, and he didn't dare to start a war rashly, from the information they got, it was said that the prince of the Tang Dynasty was fighting for the crown prince, and there was already civil strife, which made him muster up the courage to tear up the alliance and lead the army south again, but in the process of going south, news came one after another, saying that Li Shimin, the king of Qin, had killed his brother and younger brother and ascended the throne. He expected that Li Shimin, who had just ascended the throne, would have no time to be distracted from his army, so he chose to continue to go south, preparing to fight the Tang army by surprise, Yixue was captured two years ago, but what he didn't expect was that he would meet Li Shimin again by this Wei Bridge. And when Li Shimin placed the army here, when he arranged it, and when Li Shimin came here, he didn't know anything about these news, and his spies didn't have a message to him.

There were too many things that he hadn't figured out for the always suspicious Jieli Khan, and he didn't want to start a war rashly, lest he fall into Li Shimin's trap again.

"Go and tell him, just say that my Great Khan heard that the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty is not stopping, and the special army came to help him quell the chaos. As soon as I heard that the King of Qin had now been promoted to the position of the Son of Heaven, I was relieved, and I asked him to send troops to the Turkic Han Kingdom this time, just to come to congratulate. Translate to them! ”

The Jieli Khan commanded the sergeant next to him with a gloomy face.
