In the Tang camp, the scouts hurriedly reported to the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Jiancheng that the Sui army had been lured out of the city by the king of Qin, and the number of troops sent was more than 10,000. Li Shimin, the king of Qin, had withdrawn to the mountains and forests to the east to resist the enemy, and sent a wolf smoke signal, hoping that the eldest grandson Wuji would quickly lead the army to cut off the retreat of the Sui army out of the city, and the crown prince Li Jiancheng would lead 5,000 cavalry to the east of the mountains and forests as soon as possible to rescue the king of Qin and drag the enemy.

Hearing the news, the eldest grandson Wuji immediately led 15,000 Tang troops to Tongguan, leaving 5,000 Tang troops to guard the barracks.

But Li Jiancheng did not move. In Li Jiancheng's big tent, Li Jiancheng was so drunk that he couldn't wake up. The generals were in a hurry, but without Li Jiancheng's military order, none of them dared to send troops without authorization.

In the dense forests of the eastern mountains, Li Shimin held his sword in front of him to chop thorns, vines, branches and other objects that blocked the way, and Xia Xue followed behind and climbed to the top of the mountain with difficulty.

On the left and right sides of the mountain and behind the mountain, the shouts of the enemy were heard: "Capture Li Shimin alive, the official will be promoted to the third level, and the reward will be 1,000 taels, and the reward will be 10,000 yuan!" "It looks like they're surrounded.

The Yin Shishi is really cunning, when Li Shimin and others blocked the Sui cavalry at the foot of the mountain, the Yin Shishi had already sent two Sui armies with a number of 2,000 people from both sides of the mountain to outflank the middle, cutting off Li Shimin's escape to the mountains and forests on the left and right. More than 2,000 people who attacked head-on at the foot of the mountain were driven down the mountain, so that Li Shimin and his party could only go to the top of the mountain. But the Yin Master who knew the terrain here knew that the slope behind the highest mountain was a cliff that could not be climbed down. In this way, he was surrounded and driven from three sides, and in the end, Li Shimin could only be forced to the precipice, so that he had no way to escape, and he was captured.

"Haha, rampant child, look where you run today!" The Yin Master proudly touched his thick beard. He seemed to have seen Li Shimin, who had been captured alive, kneeling at his feet, begging him to spare his life.

Without feathered arrows, the road up the mountain was difficult, and the enemy army was already following in close combat. "Protect King Qin!" More than 200 Tang troops fought hard, they were all loyal elite soldiers who admired and loved Li Shimin, and their combat effectiveness was very strong, and the Sui troops who were close to them were cut down and stabbed to the ground, but there were too many enemies, like cockroaches that could not be killed.

Half an hour later, Li Shimin, who arrived at the top of the mountain, found that there was no longer a living soldier around him except for Xia Xue, not only was he extremely sad in his heart, but these elite Tang soldiers who died in battle were all good brothers who had been born and died many times with him. What made him feel like falling into an ice cellar was that when he walked to the top of the mountain, he found that the other side of the mountain was a bottomless cliff, not to mention the straight 90 degrees, and the top of the mountain even protruded a little, and it was impossible to climb down.

Li Shimin looked out on the road when he came, but there was still no trace of reinforcements from the Tang Army. His heart sank, "Big brother Li Jiancheng can't be ambushed by the enemy, it's almost an hour before the wolf smoke signal is set off, under normal circumstances, the cavalry reinforcements of the eldest brother should have arrived a long time ago." ”

"This is a Jedi, it seems that we have nowhere to escape......" Li Shimin listened to the shouts and killings that were getting closer and closer, looked at the bottomless cliff, and said to Xia Xue dejectedly, "Eldest grandson girl, I have affected you......" Li Shimin's heart was like a knife, and the strange woman he admired and had a crush on died because of himself, which really made him unacceptable, he would rather die 10,000 times by himself now, as long as he could save the life of the eldest grandson girl.
