When Li Mingyu heard that they were going out of the customs to Dou Jiande's camp to reconnoiter the enemy, he also leaned over at the moment, and said with a smile, "Second uncle, take me to see it too?" ”

Before Li Shimin could answer, Li Xuanba's eyes widened and he reprimanded, "We are going to the enemy camp, not going out of the city to hunt, what are you children fooling around?" ”

Mingyu choked his mouth and replied, "How can you be fooling around?" Didn't you praise me for my idea before? Besides, we are here to reconnoitre, not to attack the camp, and the enemy may not be able to discover us. Even if we chase it, won't we run? It is only more than 30 miles to Dou Jiande's camp, as long as you run back to the pass, it will be safe. ”

After Li Shimin heard this, he thought about it for a while, and said to Xuanba, "There shouldn't be much danger here, it's good to let Mingyu open his eyes with the past." ”

Now that the second brother has spoken, Li Xuanba naturally has no opinion. He thought for a while and said, "Although this is mainly for reconnaissance, we still have to be prepared for both, and the second brother, as the commander of the first army, should not take risks easily." In the unlikely event that the enemy discovers it, keep the manpower to answer it. ”

"Haha. Xuanba, rest assured, I already have a back hand. Li Shimin smiled mysteriously and didn't explain much.

Although Li Mingyu, as a person who has traveled through the later generations, knows that Li Shimin will definitely win the battle of Tiger Prison Pass, but he doesn't know how to win or what the process is. He didn't care much about going there, he just wanted to go and see from a distance how spectacular the camp of the 100,000 army was for dozens of miles, and just open his eyes. Hearing Li Shimin's promise, he was overjoyed, clapped his hands and shouted, "It's still the best second uncle!" Unlike Master, who always treats me as a child. ”

Li Shimin smiled: "Your master, that is also out of love for you." Come, the second uncle will take you on horseback. After saying that, he got out of the handsome tent, turned over on the horse, lifted his hand, and put Li Mingyu in front of the horse.

Li Shimin was really bold and fearless, and went to investigate the enemy's situation, and the soldiers only brought four horses, and only brought their younger brothers Xuanba and Wei Chigong, a group of seven horsemen and eight people, and galloped out of the pass.

Dou Jiande's camp is set up thirty miles away from the east of the Tiger Prison, with 100,000 soldiers and horses, banners covering the sun, and the camp is dense, stretching for dozens of miles, and there is no end in sight.

The group came to a camp three or four miles away from Dou Jiande's camp, found a rather hidden wood, and restrained the war horse to look carefully. But seeing that the camp of the Xia army was built with its back against the Yellow River, the terrain around the camp was flat, the wall of the village was towering, the sentry towers were numerous, the ditches outside the village were everywhere, and the giant horses were stacked. There are also several teams of scouting horses and light horses to look around and inspect.

At this time, the Yellow River is not as wide as the Yellow River in later generations, the river surface is as wide as 100 zhang, the turbidity waves are rolling, the water is huge, and there are boats on the river surface that can't stop shuttling back and forth.

Li Shimin and his entourage watched from the horse, all with solemn expressions and silence. Li Mingyu sat in front of Li Shimin's horse, and when he saw Dou Jiande camping with his back to the water, he said in his heart, isn't this a taboo for soldiers? Then he opened his mouth and asked, "Second uncle, then Dou Jiande is camped here, with his back to the Yellow River, instead of choosing a place where the terrain is towering, easy to defend and difficult to attack." Could it be that he is following Han Xin's example and Buna's backwater array? ”

Li Shimin shook his head, his face was gloomy, and said, "Dou Jiande, he does this for a reason. It's not to emulate Han Xin, Marquis of Huaiyin. After that, Li Shimin pointed to the Yellow River and explained, "You see, he chose to camp here, because the terrain here is flat and conducive to the spread of his army. Backed by the Yellow River, it is convenient to transport grain and grass from the nest on the opposite bank, and it is not afraid of the enemy harassing the grain route, which can ensure worry-free logistics. Dou Jiande has a strong army, as long as he fights steadily, holds the camp, and ensures food and grass, he can be invincible. ”

Li Xuanba also said with a solemn expression, "Second brother, I look at this Dou Jiande's camp is quite orderly, well-behaved, and the soldiers are in strict formation, not like a rabble." It seems that Dou Jiande is also deeply versed in military affairs, but I underestimated him. ”

While a few people were talking, they suddenly heard someone shouting and asking, "What kind of person!" Sneaky! ”

Regardless of ancient and modern wars, they are afraid of the enemy's sneak attack and explore their own reality. Dou Jiande is also a person who is familiar with the art of war, and the camp is naturally full of horseback sentinels, patrolling the periphery of the camp back and forth. At this time, a team of about a dozen sentinels found Li Shimin and his party, and immediately rode horses to surround them.

A few people didn't answer, seeing that the purpose of the trip had been achieved, they saw the reality of Dou Jiande's camp, and they wanted to turn their horses back.

When the Xia army sentry got closer, he saw that several people were wearing Tang Army armor, and immediately shouted, "Someone! Caught the Tang Army spies! "Anyway, urge the horse to carry the knife and lead more than a dozen people under his command to kill the generals.

The sound of the sentry spy was not small, and the Xia army camp was surrounded by patrols and horses, and as soon as they heard that they had caught the spies, they all ran to this place, and they all ran to this place, not much, they had gathered more than 100 people and horses, and they were slightly behind the first wave of sentry horses to chase Li Shimin and his party.

The sentry took the lead, only a few feet away from a few people, and while slapping the horse and dancing with a knife, he said in a dry mouth, "Detective of the Wuna Tang camp!" Don't know how to run like an eggless girl! Stay and receive a reward for grandpa! Chasing closer and closer, and seeing Li Shimin sitting in front of the horse with a beautiful eyebrow, he smiled lewdly, "Yo! Got a kid with you? Isn't he a rabbit? Hey! You're not bad! I'll let grandpa try it later! ”

Li Shimin listened to the foul language in his mouth, and stood with his eyebrows, thinking that he Li Shimin regarded himself as a hero and hero, since he took command for the second time, he must conquer, win the battle, and shock the world. Even the generals who rebelled against the king all the way and became famous did not dare to underestimate them, and at this time they were humiliated by a small soldier. How can you take a break! However, he was dignified His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and he had that verbal dispute with a pawn, so he didn't have to insult his identity. Li Shimin stretched out his hand, took out a bow and arrow from the side of the saddle, turned around and pulled the bow like a full moon, and the arrow hit the sentry door!

The sentinel was shouting loudly, when he was suddenly struck by an arrow, which entered through his mouth and came out of the back of his head, and before he could scream, he fell off his horse and died!

Li Shimin hit with an arrow, then turned the horse's head, facing the enemy, and put Mingyu from the front of the horse to the back to protect him. The two hands were quick and arrows could not be fired, and five or six Xia soldiers were shot down in a row.

Over there, Li Xuanba, Wei Chigong and others saw that the coach was humiliated, and they already held back a bad breath in their hearts, but they didn't dare to attack because they didn't have the boss's order. Later, when he saw Li Shimin shooting arrows and firing back, he seemed to get a signal, and the two of them, one left and one right, like two black dragons, turned around and turned back to kill the Xia Junsen.

Both of them are fierce generals of the three armies, and this time they shot angrily, and their power was extraordinary. Li Xuanba is on the left, and Wei Chigong is on the right, and the two of them are like tigers entering the flock. The horse lance flies up and down, horizontally and vertically, and there is never a single enemy under his hands! Many Xia soldiers saw a general shoot a horse and dance to kill, and before they could react, they were picked off their horses and died.

Li Mingyu sat behind the horse and poked his head out from Li Shimin's side to watch, but saw that Li Shimin's divine shooting was accurate, and the arrows were not missing, or he choked his throat, or shot at the door, and every arrow that flew out could take the life of a Xia army sentry. Coupled with the two fierce generals of the master Li Xuanba and Wei Chigong, in just a moment, the Xia army of more than 100 people left behind twenty or thirty corpses.

Li Mingyu's eyes were sharp, but he saw that there was a general in the Xia army, wearing a red copper helmet, wearing fish scale armor, a blue-maned horse under his crotch, and carrying a horse lance, surrounded and protected by several soldiers. Mingyu was excited, and said to Li Shimin, "Second uncle, look!" The one who rode the green horse and wore the red helmet! It should be a general! Shoot him! ”

Li Shimin looked at it and saw the general, he killed several people in a row at this time, he was full of pride, and said loudly, "Okay!" Watch the second uncle shoot him! After that, the bow was as full as the moon, and he was calm and condensed, and shouted loudly, "Li Shimin, the king of Qin, is here!" The enemy will look at the arrows! "An arrow shot at the general of the Xia army like a meteor catching the moon.

That general was the chief general of the Xia army who was in charge of patrolling the perimeter of the camp. He personally led a sentry to inspect the camp, and suddenly heard someone shouting to catch the spies, so he rushed with his own team, and saw that the two generals of the Tang Army were rushing left and right to kill bravely and abnormally, and wanted to step forward to parry, but he did not have much confidence in his martial arts, and was hesitating, he suddenly heard Li Shimin shouting, turned his head to look, and saw a cold light straight to the door, his martial arts were already common, where could he react! was shot in the center of the eyebrows by Li Shimin's arrow, and with a bang, the dead body turned over and fell off the horse!

Li Shimin was so powerful that he shot the enemy's main general with an arrow, and then hung up his bow and arrow, held the lance in his hand, and said to Li Mingyu, "You are careful!" I'm going to charge! ”

Li Mingyu saw Master and Wei Chigong behind him in a big way, unstoppable in their vertical and horizontal comings and goings, trembling with excitement and laughing loudly. The secret way in my heart is that the war in the era of cold weapons can make people's blood boil the most and arouse the blood of men. was infected by Li Shimin's sky-high pride, and responded loudly, "Okay!" Let's go and them up! ”

Li Shimin raised the sky and shouted: "I am Li Shimin, the king of Qin!" Who dares to fight with me! With a flick of the horse's reins, the war horse listened to the order, neighed, spread its four hooves and went straight to the Xia army. Several Tang Army Xuanjia behind him also shouted, and followed with their horses. Although it is only a few rides, the movements can be uniform, the iron hooves are galloping, and the momentum is soaring!

Xia Jun was not the opponent of Xuanba and Wei Chigong, at this time, Li Shimin led the new force to kill, and converged Li Xuanba and Wei Chigong, all the way like a bamboo, and chiseled the Xia army's 100 cavalry formation!

The Xia army camp over there had already gotten the news, Yin Qiu, the chief general of the West Camp, and Shi Zhan, the deputy general, heard that the Tang army spies were so arrogant, and they heard a report that the Tang army spies were brave and fierce, and a hundred and ten people couldn't take it down. was so angry that he scolded the rice bucket, and was about to send more manpower, but he suddenly heard it and reported again, saying that Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was here and killed the chief general of the patrol with an arrow. I was shocked, thinking that the Tang army was coming to attack the camp, so I hurriedly ordered five or six thousand men and horses, and personally led the team to rush to support.

When they left the camp, they asked about the situation, Li Shimin only rode a few times, the two of them were overjoyed, and said in their hearts that this is really a godsend, as long as Li Shimin is seized, this battle will naturally be won. Five or six thousand men and horses were cavalry, galloping with all their might, the momentum was huge, and the dust and smoke behind him gathered into a stream, like a yellow dragon, roaring and tumbling, rushing to the sky.

Several soldiers of the Tang Army saw that the enemy had come to support with thousands of men and horses, and the momentum was terrifying, and their own side had only a few horsemen here, so they couldn't help but be timid and pale.

Li Shimin saw it in his eyes, and sighed secretly in his heart, and sure enough, he told Mingyu that this kid was the key point, once these Xuanjia elite horsemen faced a hundredfold enemy and saw that our side had no hope of winning, they would be timid and hesitate in their hearts. It seems that it is imminent to go back to reorganize and train the troops this time.

Li Shimin crossed the horse lance and said to Li Xuan, "San Lang, you lead them to withdraw first, and I will be behind Jingde!" Run to the dense forest fifteen miles east of the city! Then he said to Li Mingyu behind him, "Boy, you should also go with your master!" ”

Li Mingyu has long been infected by the atmosphere of the battlefield, and his blood is surging, and he can only hate himself for not being able to help him when he is young, but it is also good to be able to cross the battlefield with Li Shimin. Hearing that the second uncle asked him to go with the master, how could he let go of this great opportunity to come to the battle in person, reached out to hug Li Shimin's waist, and replied, "Don't!" If the husband dies, he will die! How can you escape! I'm going to rush into battle with the second uncle! ”

When Li Shimin heard him say this, he said strangely, "Good boy! Aren't you afraid of death? ”

Hearing Li Shimin ask him if he was afraid of death, Mingyu suddenly became proud and replied loudly, "Second uncle, as the commander of the first army, is the dignified King of Qin!" Dare to rush into battle in person! Where did I come from! There is a second uncle to protect me, and the sword body can also break through the sea of fire! ”

"Haha! Good! You can say that again! Let's break into him! Li Shimin laughed and said to Xuan, "You guys go and make arrangements early, with me here, I'm sure you'll be safe!" ”
