Brothers and sisters, the war is about to begin, and the first volume is almost over, so please welcome this moment with the collection on the bookshelf and the flowers in your hands!! ）

*******************

On the first day of May, the weather was fine.

The heavy and thick gate of the Tiger Prison Pass slowly opened, and Li Shimin led Qin Qiong, Cheng Biting, Jin Wei, Chi Gong and others, a total of more than 2,000 cavalry, out of the Tiger Prison Pass.

Not far from them, more than a dozen Xia army rangers looked at the back of ** in the distance, suddenly turned their horses' heads, and galloped towards the east.

It took nearly half a day for Li Shimin to gallop all the way with his cavalry and cross the Yellow River.

After crossing the Yellow River, a wide pasture. Not far to the north, is Guangwu. This vast natural pasture is large enough for 10,000 horses to graze here.

As soon as he arrived here, Li Shimin ordered to leave a thousand horses to graze here, and the two soldiers and soldiers rushed back to the tiger prison quickly!

However, in the Xia army camp, Dou Jiande did not know that Li Shimin had ordered to return. Summoning the generals under the tent, a cadre of Wenchen said: "My army has been confronting the tiger prison for a month, and now Li Shimin has led thousands of horsemen under the tent to Hebei for grazing, presumably the grain road is disturbed by King Zheng, and the grain and grass are difficult to continue, so this dangerous trick is taken." Once Li Shimin leaves, it may take a few days to return. I want to set off overnight and storm the tiger prison, what do you think? ”

The generals under Xia Jun's tent couldn't hold back for a long time, and the confrontation for more than a month made them itch in their bones, and they couldn't wait to kill them immediately!

And those civilian officials in charge of logistics saw the huge daily consumption of the 100,000-strong army, and they also strongly advocated storming the tiger prison.

Some officials with conservative views were helpless in the face of this situation, and besides, when they thought about it, the 100,000-strong army could defeat the thousands of soldiers in the tiger prison without Li Shimin's presence anyway.

Meng Haigong and Xu Yuanlang, who also have a great right to speak, both agreed to storm the Tiger Prison.

As a result, Dou Jiande did not oppose sending troops to knock on the pass.

"Good!" Dou Jiande took a few shots, "Pass on my edict, order the army to set off overnight, move in the direction of the tiger prison, and prepare to storm the tiger prison the next day!" ”

As soon as the edict came out, the entire Xia army camp suddenly boiled. It is not an easy task for 100,000 people to set off from the village. Moreover, Dou Jiande has been here for more than a month, building the camp like an iron bucket, several places, and even using huge stones to build it, and when it is relocated, the workload is extremely large.

After a busy night, Dou Jiande's army officially set off on the second day, and it took nearly an hour of marching to reach the Niukou outside the Tiger Prison Pass, where the village was re-established, across a stream of water, looking at the Tiger Prison Pass.

And Li Shimin, who had returned yesterday afternoon, stood at the head of the Tiger Prison Pass with the generals, looking at the Xia army from afar.

I saw that the summer army camp was gradually lined up, and the three large camps of the forward, middle and rear armies were continuous, and there was no end in sight. Just like the Yellow River, the river swelled, and the great river flowed sideways, all over the mountains and fields, and it was connected to the edge of the sky.

Seeing this situation, even fierce generals such as Qin Qiong and Wei Chi Gong couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, saying that the Xia army was powerful and it might be difficult to resist.

Only Li Shimin said: "The thief has never encountered a strong enemy since he started in Shandong. Forcing the city to go down is to have a heart of lightness. The pitch was loud and chaotic, and there was a clear lack of discipline. I can't press the armor, and his courage is declining. After a long time, the morale subsided, and our army gathered momentum, and all of them were defeated. I made a bet with the generals, but at noon, it will be broken! ”

When the generals heard this, they were skeptical.

Seeing that ** did not come out of the army, Xia Jun thought that ** was timid and did not dare to fight, so he despised ** even more. So Dou Jiande ordered to send three hundred elite horsemen to cross the river, and did not stop until one mile away from the ** camp.

Li Shimin looked at the three hundred cavalry who were showing off their might, and was secretly angry in his heart, and was about to send elite cavalry to destroy these cavalry, when he saw a knight come out of the three hundred cavalry and go straight to the Tang camp.

The person who came rode his horse and ran in front of the gate of Tangying Zhai for a while, and shouted loudly: "Please King Qin select hundreds of sharp soldiers to have a duel with my Great Xia Jingqi!" ”

When Li Shimin heard this, he suddenly felt a little sleepy and met a pillow. Yesterday, more than 1,000 horses were left in Hebei, and after eating and drinking, they let people drive the horses back. Now that the horses have not arrived, Li Shimin will not easily fight Dou Jiande.

So Li Shimin ordered Wang Junkuo to lead two hundred lance cavalry to battle.

As soon as this order was given, I saw a young general beside Li Shimin clenching his fists, turning over his horse, and leaving the camp with two hundred lance cavalry.

Seeing Wang Junkuo's dashing appearance leaving the camp, Zhang Yunwen's heart suddenly itched, and he also wanted to lead a group of cavalry out of the camp to fight the enemy head-on like Wang Junkuo. The collision of swords and guns in this era of cold weapons and the neighing of war horses are more exciting than the rain of bullets and bullets in later generations.

Li Shimin saw that Zhang Yunwen was in a trance, and immediately guessed the thoughts in his heart, leaned over and said softly: "Yunwen also wants to fight?" ”

Zhang Yunwen nodded unconsciously, then reacted, and smiled at Li Shimin: "But forget it, lowly is not good at frontal fighting!" ”

Li Shimin nodded: "Well, it's true, Yunwen's immediate work is still a little worse, and it is not as good as a fierce general like Shubao Zhijie Jingde, I am afraid that even General Wang, who came out of the battle just now, is not as good as it!" If Yunwen leads the troops to set up the battle, I will let you go out to fight! Saying that, he paused again, "Of course, those special operations still have to be handed over to Yunwen!" ”

Zhang Yunwen suddenly rolled his eyes involuntarily, daring to love Li Shimin and wanting to call me as an animal.

Look at the five hundred cavalry melee again. Under the leadership of Wang Junkuo, he advanced and retreated, and he advanced and retreated to a certain extent, and he won and lost with the three hundred elite horsemen. After fighting for a while, they each returned to the camp.

Zhang Yunwen saw Wang Junkuo's appearance of holding a lance in one hand, holding the reins in the other, and clamping the horse's belly tightly with his legs, he couldn't help but maliciously think in his heart, this person had been riding a horse for too long, and after he didn't get off the horse, he would have a lap of legs. Then I thought of the stirrup and the saddle, and I secretly made up my mind that I would take some time to get those two things out.

Suddenly remembered that there was a master of hammering beside him, so he took two steps back without a trace and came to Wei Chigong's side.

"Well, General Wei Chi, there is one thing I want to ask you!" Zhang Yunwen didn't know how to speak, his face was swollen, and under the curious gaze of Wei Chigong and Cheng Yanjin, he sneered for a long time before saying, "I want to worship you as a teacher to learn the art of striking the lance, I wonder if General Wei Chi is willing to accept me as an apprentice?" ”

When Wei Chi Gong heard this, his black face was dyed with a layer of red. And Cheng Yanjin next to him laughed out loud, causing everyone to look sideways, Cheng Yanjin hurriedly shut up, leaned into Zhang Yunwen's ear and buzzed: "Zhang boy, you worship Wei Chi as a teacher, it is better to worship me as a teacher!" Lao Cheng's striking skills are not bad! ”

Zhang Yunwen stared at this guy: "Then have you beaten General Wei Chi?" Cheng Yanjin was dumbfounded. So Zhang Yunwen's eyes looked at Wei Chigong again.

Wei Chigong said: "Yunwen, why do you want to learn to attack the lance?" ”

Zhang Yunwen was silent.

"Okay, once this battle is over, I'll teach you a few tricks to hit the lance!" Zhang Yunwen was overjoyed, and was just about to bow to his master, but Wei Chi Gong said: "Why is Yunwen like this, these striking techniques are just a summary of my many years of fighting, and they are not any secrets, why bother to salute!" ”

Zhang Yunwen said: "Since this method of striking the lance is owned by General Wei Chi, if I study it for no reason, if the name is not correct, it will not be good, and I am afraid it will be very inconvenient to learn!" ”

Wei Chigong hesitated, and then did not insist. Zhang Yunwen knelt on the ground on the spot and bowed to his teacher.

All the generals were inexplicable to see Zhang Yunwen kneeling, and when asked the reason, they realized that this kid had worshiped Wei Chi Gong as a teacher, so the generals present congratulated Wei Chi Gong and Zhang Yunwen one after another, but that Cheng bit the gold, and still said indignantly: "Although I can't beat Wei Chi, my lance skills are not bad, why don't you see someone worship me as a teacher?" ”

At this moment, he suddenly saw a person in the Xia army formation on the opposite side, and he should ride straight towards the three hundred elites.
