At dawn, the Turkic barracks were still smoking, but the fire had been extinguished.

Jieli Khan sat in the big tent in the army, his expression was solemn, and he looked particularly terrifying.

The leaders of the Turkic tribes stood by and were very angry.

"His grandmother's, the Tang army deceived people too much, and when Lingzhou City is captured, I will use their heads to serve wine."

"I'm going to tear them to pieces."

"Your Majesty, take the city."

"Yes, let's take the city......"

The leaders of the Turkic tribes asked for war one after another, and Jieli Khan suddenly sighed softly, originally he wanted to wait and see what happened, and wait for Liang and Hou Sui's soldiers and horses to kill Li Shimin before raising troops.

In this way, no matter whether he wins or loses, it will not have any impact on the situation in Luzhou.

But now that the Tang army has burned their grain and grass at the risk of death, anger is not anger and falls second, the grain and grass are burned, and they are afraid that they will not stay long in Lingzhou.

When there is no food and grass, they will have to go back without the Tang army attacking.

It's a shame.

If they take advantage of the remaining grain and grass support, they may be able to capture Lingzhou City, as long as they capture Lingzhou City, everything before can be made up.

"Gather troops and horses and siege the city."

The Turks decided to attack the city.

And when the Turks and Li Jiancheng were attacking each other, on the side of Luzhou, Li Shimin was being attacked by Liang and Hou Sui, in addition to the 20,000 soldiers and horses in front, there were 10,000 soldiers and horses of Liang in the back to attack the city.

The situation of the Tang army in the city of Luzhou is not optimistic.

In the evening of that day, after repelling the attacks of the Liang and Sui coalition forces, which were unknown several times, the city tower of Luzhou was already full of corpses.

The smell of blood spreads, flies fly around, and it's disgusting.

Li Shimin stood on the city tower, looking at the retreating enemy, his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"How many bows and arrows are there?"

"Back to the prince, there are only a thousand bows and arrows left."

"What about the other city defense equipment?"

"It's not much, barely enough to last two days."

They are not short of food and grass, but they have no tools to defend the city, and it is not easy to defend Luzhou City.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also dressed in military uniform at this time, he glanced at Li Shimin and said, "Lord Wang, break through." ”

They still have 3,000 soldiers and horses left, and in the opinion of the eldest grandson Wuji, with these 3,000 soldiers and horses, it is not difficult to protect Li Shimin from Luzhou City safely.

And just after the eldest grandson Wuji said this, Cheng Yanjin and others also immediately stood up.

"Lord Wang, break through, Lao Cheng, I just don't want to give up this life, and I will protect the prince."

"Yes, lord, break through."

Luzhou City was originally captured by them, and now they have nothing to lose if they lose it to Liang State, anyway, they have successfully attracted the enemy back, and they have already completed the task.

Instead of sticking to the city and guarding this dead end, why not break through and find a way to live?

A group of civil ministers and military generals shouted to break through, Li Shimin's eyes were slightly condensed, but he was a little entangled and unwilling.

If he can defend Luzhou City, then after returning to Chang'an City, it will be a great achievement, his prestige will increase, and he will have greater confidence in fighting for the throne.

But if he discarded Luzhou City, he would indeed be able to break through, but in this way, all the credit would be lost, and breaking through would be tantamount to losing the battle.

How can a prince who has lost a battle be affirmed by hundreds of officials after returning to Chang'an City, and how can he be praised by the people?

The defense and loss of Luzhou City is not only related to his life, but also to his prestige in the future, and whether he still has any hope of competing for the throne.

This is a very difficult choice, and any choice may affect his future development.

Li Shimin frowned, looked at the military generals in front of him who were persuading him to break through, and suddenly asked a question: "Is there no news from Yunzhou yet?" ”

Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect that at this time, Li Shimin would still ask this question.

One of the officials sighed.

"Lord Wang, Luzhou City is surrounded by regiments, and the news can't come in at all, besides, Yang Zhengdao of Hou Sui did not lead troops back to help, presumably Yunzhou City is still in the hands of Hou Sui, Qin Tian has not fought, that is able to capture Yunzhou City?"

"Yes, don't pin your hopes on Qin Tian, let's break through as soon as possible."

"That's right, the prince will break through, and I'm not afraid of no firewood to stay in the green mountains."

Everyone no longer had any hope for Qin Tian, but Li Shimin was unwilling, he decided to gamble, bet on the future Ninety-Five, and bet on his trust in Qin Tian.

"This king still thinks that Qin Tian can come in time."

"Lord Wang......" The eldest grandson Wuji stretched his voice very long, at this time, Li Shimin still believed in Qin Tian, this was simply joking with his own life.

Isn't it just a lost battle, what's this, as long as life is still there, everything has a chance.

But Li Shimin waved his hand: "This king has made up his mind, and he will defend Luzhou City, and he will order it to go down, and this king will cheat the camp tonight." ”

Everyone was so unhappy when they saw that Li Shimin was so stubborn, but Cheng Yanjin suddenly shouted at this time: "The last general leads the order, the prince trusts the Qin family boy, the last general also trusts him, and the last general believes that he will definitely be able to come with rescuers." ”

Among these people, he Cheng Yanjin has the best relationship with Qin Tian, if even he doesn't believe in Qin Tian, then who else can be expected to believe in Qin Tian?

At this time, the army's morale was in turmoil, and he had to stabilize the army's morale through Qin Tian.

Although this one seems a bit ethereal, it is like a star in the night sky, although it is small, it also has light, and where there is light, there is hope.

Cheng Biting Jin's words made the generals stop talking.

"Since the prince wants to deceive the camp, the last general is willing to take this errand." Chai Shao stood up from the army, as Li Shimin's brother-in-law, at this time he didn't support Li Shimin, who supported him?

Chai Shao stood up, and the eldest grandson Wuji smiled bitterly in his heart, but he also stood up: "Xiaguan will stick to this place with the prince and never retreat." ”

"We will follow the prince to defend this place and never retreat."

“………………”

All the generals shouted loudly, Li Shimin's heart was shocked, and said: "Okay, good, you have this heart, this king swears here, if you can repel the enemy army, this kindness will not be forgotten by this king." ”

Li Shimin wants to win the hearts of the people, and if he wants them to fight to the death for themselves, he can only make promises to them, although he didn't say anything about being rich and noble, don't forget each other, or say that he will be treated favorably after winning the world, etc., but they all know very well that if Li Shimin really becomes the Son of Heaven one day, today's incident will be enough for them to be crowned marquis and worship the prime minister.

"Swear to follow the prince to the death......"

"Swear to follow the prince to the death......"

"Okay, firewood and horses, you will lead 500 soldiers and horses tonight, and deceive the camp."
