The Tang army was attacked, but the Dahua army of 5,000 could not completely destroy the main force of the Tang army, it was just a head-on attack, which would create a nightmare for the Tang army, hit morale, and make the Tang army remember it in their hearts, forming a shadow, and subconsciously having a cowardice towards Dahua in the future.

Xue Wanqian felt that the time was about the same, and ordered to withdraw, not wanting to be dragged here, but was bitten by the Tang army that was constantly evacuating from behind, and was buried here.

Their blocking mission has basically been accomplished, and any longer stay will have to pay a heavy price.

"Withdraw!"

Xue Wanqian ordered the cavalry to retreat, and the ambush soldiers on the mountain field were also retreating, finding the place where the war horse was anchored, and fleeing on horseback.

When the Tang troops in the mountain road arrived one after another, after clearing the obstacles, they found that the wilderness outside the mountain was full of corpses, and the dead bodies were all over the mountain, and seventy percent of them were Tang soldiers.

Changge, spears, halberds, and Teng Dun were scattered in a mess, and some were still inserted into the bodies of dead corpses, and the corpses of the two armor colors were superimposed on each other, mixed together, and the stumps and arms were broken, scattered everywhere, blood stained the ground, and the bloody blood made Chen Ling feel sick when he heard it.

After the crown prince Li Jiancheng dismounted, when he saw this scene, his face was ugly, because the actions of their Tang army were almost led by the nose of the enemy, and the 80,000-strong army collapsed without a fight, lost the Xiongguan, and was ambushed several times, with many casualties, which made Li Jiancheng, who was the commander-in-chief, feel very embarrassed.

"If you don't take revenge, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in your heart!" Li Jiancheng sighed lightly, but he felt helpless, and he also admitted in his heart that compared to the use of soldiers, there was still a big gap between him and Luo Cheng.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, General Chai Shao is wounded." Someone told me.

Li Jiancheng turned around to visit Chai Shao, and found that he was lying on a chariot, with blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and he had passed out in pain, he asked about the injury, and the military doctor replied that General Chai had broken two ribs, and injured his right kidney and internal organs, and needed to recuperate for a while.

"Hurt your kidneys?" Li Jiancheng frowned, although he didn't understand medical skills, he had also heard a little that men's kidneys play a great role.

"Be sure to treat General Chai Shao with all his might, he was in front of him in order for the army to retreat safely, and he was ambushed by this, which is to suffer for His Royal Highness."

"If your subordinates obey orders, you will do your best." The military doctor replied respectfully.

Li Jiancheng returned to the front of the army and continued to order a retreat, because the rations were limited, and there were pursuers behind, so he had to cross the river and reach the east bank of the Wanghe River, where there were two cities, and the grain and grass could support the army of sixty or seventy thousand to fill the stomach, waiting for the arrival of the military rations in the rear.

………

The two brothers, Zhou Shaoji and Zhou Shaofan, are both generals, one in his early thirties, the other in his twenties, twenty-five or sixteen years old, hot-blooded and strong, proficient in the art of war, so they are quite particular about using soldiers, constantly putting pressure on the city gate, and finally broke the city before noon.

The phalanx of the Modao battalion in the army rushed in from the city gate, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and slashed and killed, making the Tang army in the city gate powerless to parry, and was immediately defeated.

"Kill—"

The Dahua army and horses continued to rush in, and soon controlled the Great Earthquake Pass, killing and capturing seventy or eighty percent of the Tang army, and only more than 2,000 people fled in panic.

Hou Junji ordered to chase ten miles, but was blocked by the team behind the Tang Army, and then collected his troops and returned to Xiongguan.

"The soldiers have worked hard, we have overcome the Great Earthquake Pass, and the credit will be registered, and now all armies and battalions will clean up the battlefield in a unified manner, and prepare to welcome His Majesty in person."

"Whoa!" The soldiers had just finished the victory, and the atmosphere was warm, and when they learned that His Majesty was coming, they were even more cheered.

………

A day later, Luo Zhaoyun drove to the expedition in person, outside the earthquake pass, 100,000 troops arrived one after another, camped, and did not enter the pass.

The ten-mile company camp is neatly arranged, the army is well-organized, sonorous and resolute.

Luo Zhaoyun was followed by many Wenchen generals, such as Guo Xiaoke, Du Ruhui, Chu Suiliang, military generals Chen Liang, Lai Hu'er, and many rising young generals, such as Zhou Zhongyin, Mai Zhongcai, Xue Wanbei, Yu Chengdao, Ning Wufei and others.

Hou Junji led people out of the customs, personally bowed to greet him, and gave the gift of the monarch and ministers.

Luo Zhaoyun's identity changes, under the attention of the public, it is natural to put on a full posture, so as not to be despised informally, many times, the superior is to pretend to be high, this is the art of the emperor, to show the power and prestige, to deter the courtiers, with at least the heart of awe, there is the way of the monarch and the minister.

He looked around at the generals and said, "The generals have worked hard, and they need to be rewarded and sealed, although the statement is clear, the court of Dahua will not treat any meritorious servant badly. ”

"Your Majesty, please enter the city and rest!" Hou Junji got up and invited.

Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and said: "No need, General Hou will send people to repair the city wall and stone road as soon as possible, send people to camp at the exit outside this mountain road, and set up sentry posts along the way, so that our army can pass smoothly in three days." ”

Hou Junji didn't expect His Majesty to be so active in preparing for war, so he no longer persuaded more, but accepted the military order.

"The minister understands!" Hou Junji bowed.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded, then turned to look at the majestic mountains of Longshan, and felt a little feeling in his heart.

In ancient times, King Xiao of Zhou sealed the son of Qin, Qin Yi was initially set up in the west foot of today's water realm Longshan Great Earthquake Pass, since then Qin created a foundation in Longyou, and then moved to the West Dog Hill in the Tianshui area. After more than 100 years of development, after the wings were gradually full, it went through hundreds of years of attacks in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and finally unified the Six Kingdoms.

Tianshui played an irreplaceable role in the process of Qin's unification of the Six Kingdoms.

Now that the entire Tianshui has been completely taken down by himself, he can enter Fufeng County with one horse and Pingchuan after opening the Great Earthquake Pass.

Fufeng is the west gate of Jingzhao County, as long as Fufeng County is taken, Jingzhao will be completely exposed, there is no natural danger to rely on, when the time comes, Jingzhao County will not be compressed, the Tang army will have no profit to defend, and can only fight a decisive battle near Chang'an.

Of course, Luo Zhaoyun also understands that he can't be in a hurry, he must fight steadily in Fufeng County, and then consolidate the Guanlong territory, attract talents, stabilize the people's hearts, influence the people and hearts of the people in Jingzhao County, and shake the influence of the Li family in Guannei, so that he can completely defeat him, otherwise a few tactical victories alone will not be enough to defeat the Tang Dynasty and make many Junyan abandon Tang and join China.
