A small town separated by a mountain.

Outside the city was full of marching tents.

In one of the largest tents, Li Shimin sat upright, the previous illness was long gone, and all that was left at this time was heroic.

It's just that there is some gloom on the heroic face.

It's not gloomy, it's not good, nearly half of the top ten soldiers were captured by others, it's a shame to think about it.

"Today, our army marched and went to Gaojaw City, and we were ashamed of the snow day." Li Shimin said.

"Your Highness ordered!" Several people in the account bowed down one after another.

It was a great shame that day, and today I have to get it back.

The group suddenly had countless anger burning in their hearts.

Li Shimin slapped his big hand: "Let's go!" ”

His face was full of excitement, and his heart was even more excited.

Li Shimin said in his heart: "Come to think of it, then Xue Ju will be poisoned to death in the next few days, the Western Regions is strange and poisonous, and the effect is extraordinary." ”

The army pulled out, fled in disarray when it returned, and when it returned again, its face was full of fighting spirit, as if it was going to crush the enemy in front of it in the next second.

In the high jaw city.

Everywhere there are a forest of spirit flags, empty streets, and from time to time a few snow-white paper coins dance in the wind.

In the former Taishou Mansion, Xue Rengao knelt in front of the coffin in a daze, full of grief.

The weather was a little gloomy, and Zong Luohu was in front of the house to handle this matter, while Niu Gao was patrolling the city.

On the other side, Li Shimin came with a large army and thought about Gaoqian City.

Suddenly, a rough voice sounded.

"Second brother! Second brother! The voice was quick and loud.

When Li Shimin heard the shout, a trace of helplessness crossed his face.

"Yuanba, what's wrong?" Li Shimin looked at the source of the voice and asked.

"Second brother, didn't you say okay, take me to arrest Mu Guiying as a daughter-in-law? Why are you bringing me to a place again!? Li Yuanba asked stupidly, but the dissatisfaction on his face expressed the unhappiness in his heart at this time.

"Yuanba, my father has an order, we must first catch this Xue Ju and send it back to Chang'an before we can take you there, otherwise my father will be angry and beat people." Li Shimin persuaded.

"Didn't my father always say that I didn't grow up, I want to catch a daughter-in-law and go back to show him, every time I think I'm a fool, hum." Li Yuanba, a man, pouted and said unconvinced.

"Yuanba, don't worry, wait for the matter to be over, the second brother will take you to arrest Mu Guiying and make you a daughter-in-law, I heard that Yang Gao's queen is also a great beauty, that is the daughter of the Iron Spear Protector, when the time comes, I will arrest you and make you a concubine, hehe." Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Don't, I just want Mu Guiying, don't want anything else, don't." Li Yuanba said angrily.

"Okay, well, it's all up to the fourth brother, and when the time comes, the fourth brother, which one you like, will give it to you." Li Shimin said.

"Okay, okay, let's go and arrest the old man Xue Ju, catch Fei Fei and beat him, let others take him back, the second brother will take me to Jiangdu." Li Yuan was domineering.

"Yuanba, don't mess around, we have to go back to Chang'an to resume our lives, and we can only go after we recover." Li Shimin said.

“。”

There were two loud bangs, and it turned out that Li Yuanba smashed the two drum urn golden hammers in his hand to the ground.

Then "Wow! With a bang, Li Yuanba sat on the ground and began to cry.

Li Shimin looked at this absurd scene and couldn't help sighing.

Thinking that this fourth brother of his own is extremely brave, even that Yuwen Chengdu is not the enemy of Shihe under him, but he never thought about it......

"That's it, Yuanba doesn't want to be like this, catch Xue Ju and let's go to Jiangdu." Li Shimin said.

"Wow, the second brother counts when he talks." Li Yuanba stopped his crying and sucked in the runny snot and said.

"Don't worry, when did the second brother lie to you." Li Shimin said.

"No, you have to pull the hook." As he spoke, Li Yuanba got up quickly, wiped off the runny nose with a wave of his sleeve, and then stretched out his right index finger to Li Shimin.

"You, you." Seeing this, Li Shimin had a smile on his face, a few brothers, just facing their own sister-in-law, and this stupid fourth brother only had some family affection, I don't know when I became more and more separated from my eldest brother and Yuanji.

"What, don't you dare, second brother?" Saying that, Li Yuanba's face was deflated, and he wanted to continue crying.

"No, how could it be, the second brother is thinking about things, he is distracted, come, pull the hook." As he spoke, Li Shimin stretched out his right index finger and hooked it with Li Yuanba.

"I have to get a stamp." Li Yuanba said again.

"Okay, stamp." Li Shimin was happy.

It's all done.

Li Yuanba casually picked up the pair of drum Weng Jin hammers that weighed more than a thousand catties, turned around and walked towards his mount, this horse was Li Yuanba's exclusive mount, and there were clouds and smoke for thousands of miles.

Li Shimin raised his eyes and looked, and the high jaw city was already looming.

In the high jaw city.

Niu Gao was patrolling the city wall, when suddenly a soldier hurried over.

"General! Oh no! The soldier shouted.

"What?" Niu Gao frowned and asked.

"Tang, the Tang army is coming!" The soldier said.

"What!?" Niu Gao was shocked.

Why is it now, everyone is immersed in the grief of His Majesty's departure, and this is trouble.

"How many enemy troops are there? How far is that? Niu Gao asked.

"General, the Tang army is densely covered with the sky and the sun, and I am afraid that there are no less than 100,000, and now it has passed the mountain pass, and it is less than ten miles away from Gaoji City." The soldier said

Niu Gao was by no means an idle person, and immediately ordered: "Prepare for battle!" Stick to the city and prepare more rolling stones and woods. ”

Then he said to his own soldiers: "Go and inform Zong Shuai, the Tang army is coming, prepare early." ”

"Whoa!" A personal soldier took the order and quickly descended the city wall.

This preparation for the funeral is really not a worry-free thing, Zong Luohu was busy and intuitively felt sore, and couldn't help but sigh: "Old, old, I can't do anything anymore." ”

Then Xue Ju sounded, and there was a sigh in his heart.

"Marshal! Big things are not good! An anxious voice rang out.

Zong Luohu reflexively stood up and asked, "What's the matter!?" ”

"Marshal, General Niu asked the little one to come and inform him that the Tang army is coming, so make plans as soon as possible!" The soldier reported.

"How many Tang troops? How far is it from the high jaw? Zong Luohu frowned and asked.

There was no panic on his face, no surprise on his face, as if everything was taken for granted.

"The sentry rider came to report, I am afraid that there are 100,000 people, and now it is less than ten miles away from the high jaw." The soldier said.

"Okay, Ben Shuai knows, go down." Zongrahu said.

"Whoa!" The soldier answered and hurried away, wanting to give Niu Gao his life.

"Hey! It's been a long time, I'm afraid it's hard to go, old man, go slowly, I'm afraid I'm going to accompany you. Zong Luohu sighed with emotion and started to leave.

He walked out of his room and said to the two soldiers outside the door, "Go, gather brothers!" ”

"Whoa!" The soldier was ordered to leave.

Zong Luohu was slightly irritated and dared to go towards Xue Ju's spiritual hall.

When one foot stepped into the mourning hall, the momentum of the whole person changed abruptly, and it was extremely sharp.

It's just that the young man who was on his knees in a daze didn't seem to have noticed anything.

"Your Highness, the Tang Army is coming, make plans as soon as possible!" Zong Luo bowed and said.

"My father hasn't been buried yet, what can I plan?" Xue Rengao said blankly.

"The last general, when you live and die with Gao Zheng, if there is a disagreement, Your Highness should leave as soon as possible, and don't use the identity of the prince again." Zong Luohu bowed deeply and turned to leave.

All the momentum burst out suddenly, like a tiger descending from the mountain.

Outside the mourning hall, dozens of old soldiers stood in the courtyard.

"Your Majesty, just lie here and watch us, the Tang army is attacking today, and my Zong Luohu will live and die with Gao Zheng!" Zong Rahu shouted.

"Live and die with the high jaw!" A group of old soldiers screamed.

"You, you, stay behind to protect His Royal Highness the Prince, and the rest of the years will set off!" With that, Zong Luohu left with a group of people, leaving behind two old pawns to replace the soldiers who were guarding the door outside the mourning hall.

The courtyard was silent.

"Father's !!!" Suddenly, there was a heart-rending wail from the mourning hall.

Zong Luohu, who had just come out of the courtyard, heard this cry, and couldn't help but pause, sighed, and continued to walk forward.

On top of the high jaw wall.

Zong Luohu, Niu Gao and a group of generals stood together, looking into the distance.

For a long time, first a large banner appeared in front of him, followed by a warrior on a horse, and more and more enemies appeared in the field of vision.

The dense cavalry has finally come to an end, is this the end of it? No, there were dozens of paces apart, all of them were footsteps, densely packed with several times the cavalry in front.

In short, there is no edge in sight, Li Shimin with the defeated soldiers, as well as the original soldiers from all sides, hundreds of thousands of soldiers are here.

The city wall that is not very high, but at this time, it has lost its former majesty, and suddenly becomes a small boat in the ocean, as if in the next second, this city will be annihilated by the sea of people in front of it.

"Here we are." Zongrahu said.

When everyone saw this lineup, they all gasped, thinking that this Tang Emperor was determined to spit out this high jaw.

"Come to think of it, when the emperor was there, his people were like a bamboo all the way under the leadership of the emperor, even Li Shimin, who claimed to have never been defeated, was defeated in the hands of the emperor. It's just that the emperor ......." Everyone thought of this, and suddenly they were a little unconfident.

The emperor is gone, so who can lead everyone to continue to win the battle?

Prince? The doll that is still at the funeral? I have to admit that the crown prince is extraordinary, but he doesn't have any imperial talent.

When everyone thought of this, they couldn't help sighing, and they all thought in their hearts: "That's it, the right to return the emperor's knowledge of people." ”

At this moment, many generals actually reported their will to die.

Of course, there are some who are ready to fall, but none of them dare to say it at this time.

Smoke rose from the army outside the city.

The soldiers on the city walls also began to eat the food that had just been distributed, and each man had a large piece of meat in his bowl, which was already considered a big meal at that time.

Everything is quiet and scary, and the quiet atmosphere can make people hear the sound of the flag being blown by the wind.

In this bitterly cold summer, I put on that heavy armor at this time, but I couldn't feel the heat that was draped on my body in the past.

The weather seemed to have cooled down.

Everything is as if the clothes are not stained with ink paintings.

Everyone was looking forward to it, and they couldn't tell whether they were looking forward to the beginning or the end of the war, and they didn't know whether they were hoping for victory or just the end of the war.

The army outside the city moved, everything regained its sound, and the gray-white ink painting came to life!
