Hearing this, Tang Bi's whole body trembled, and he hurriedly kowtowed and shouted: "I said I said, I said everything!" ”

"Last month, Xue Ju, the overlord of the Western Qin, sent 50,000 elite soldiers, saying that he was going to attack Guanzhong, and our Huangyuan happened to guard the passage into Guanzhong, and the sinner had no choice but to gather his subordinates and defend according to the danger, although the field battle was not Xue Rengao's opponent, but it also relied on the strength of the crowd to temporarily block his attack, and a stalemate was formed for a while."

"In the past, the puppet emperor Li Hongzhi claimed to be able to call the wind and rain, and even summoned the thunder and lightning in the sky to help fight. Lord County Warden, you have sent officers and troops to suppress it several times, and this person has helped us defeat it by making the sky change abruptly and born with a vision. So we believe in his sorcery, and that's why we embrace him as emperor. ”

"But this time Xue Rengao's troops are in Huangyuan, and we are not in a good position, so we can only turn to Li Hongzhi for help again, but this time this person has achieved nothing, and there is not even a drop of rain in the sky, and we know that this is just a charlatan. Afterwards, he wanted to run away, but I took him down on the spot! ”

"But even if I take down this liar, it will be useless for the war, the Qin army on the opposite side still can't be repulsed, at this time, Xue Ju sent someone to send a message, as long as we can open the avenue and kill Li Hongzhi to show submission, then he can let me Tang Bi continue to keep his subordinates and territory, just nominally obey him."

A heroic young man beside Dou Jin with bright eyes and no anger sneered: "You just listened to Xue Ju's words and really killed Li Hongzhi?" ”

Tang Bi sighed: "At that time, the sinners had no master, because in the past, my troops were just a group of homeless people, and the war has always relied on this Li Hongzhi to call for wind and rain, only in this way can my sergeants think that with the help of heaven, they can be invincible." But after this was not good, the morale of the army was scattered. I was confused for a while, so I agreed to Xue Ju's conditions and killed Li Hongzhi. ”

The young man sneered: "Li Hongzhi is the emperor you personally supported, and he is also an immortal in the eyes of the soldiers, even if the spell does not work for a while, it is just a temporary abnormality of the immortals, but you directly kill him like this, and call the enemy a vassal, I am afraid that your soldiers will not be able to let you go first." ”

Tang Bi's tears flowed down: "You are very right, as soon as I killed Li Hongzhi, the army's heart collapsed, and tens of thousands of people directly threw down their weapons and dispersed, and the next day, the remaining tens of thousands of people also ran away, and there were many people who were loyal to Li Hongzhi before, and they still wanted to be unfavorable to me." I had no choice but to flee with a few hundred cavalry, and if I walked slowly, I was afraid that I would already become a ghost under the sword! ”

Dou Jin and the young man looked at each other and smiled, shook their heads, and said, "Didn't Xue Ju promise to continue to let you be the big leader, if you don't go to him, why do you want to come to us?" This is the official residence of the Tang King of the Great Sui, and you are a rogue, we are born enemies! ”

Tang Bi hurriedly said: "Xue Ju is cruel and easy to kill, his son Xue Rengao is even more brutal and unkind, I have defeated his partial division a few times back then, and I have also refused his surrender, now I have no army, I surrender, he will not allow me." As for you, after all, you are an official army, and the Holy One has issued a holy decree that if the people and bandits from all over the country surrender voluntarily, they can be pardoned! ”

Dou Jin laughed and said: "It can be pardoned for ordinary people, but your mistake is to establish yourself as the king of Tang, don't you know that the entire Guanzhong is now Emperor Gong and King Tang?" How can there be two Tang kings in this world? Someone, push this thief out of the way for me, and kill him! ”

Tang Bi's face changed, and he hurriedly shouted: "It can't be like this, Dou Taishou, you said you wouldn't kill me!" ”

Dou Jin smiled slightly, spread his hands and said, "The official said that he wouldn't kill you, but he didn't say that he wouldn't let my subordinates kill you!" What are you still doing in a daze, push it out, cut it off! ”

Soon, a few fierce warriors took Tang Bi out, and in a moment, a miserable scream came, and the whole world was quiet.

Dou Jin hooked the corners of his mouth, and smiled at the young man who was standing on the side and was silent: "Gong Qin, do you think it's okay for the lower officials to deal with it like this?" ”

This heroic young man is Li Shimin, he nodded, and said: "Tang Bi deserves death, these people who took the opportunity to stand on their own in the troubled times and usurped the throne of the emperor cannot let him live, otherwise it is not enough to deter future generations!" But after all, he told the truth of this defeat, let us know the situation ahead, and now Xue Ju has swallowed up a lot of Tang Bi's people, and his morale is high, and he should come straight to Guanzhong! ”

Dou Jin's brows tightened, and he muttered: "Our current situation is not favorable, first General Jiang and General Dou attacked lightly and lost the battle in front, the day before yesterday, he invited himself out of the pass to comfort Liu Shirang, the doctor of Chaosan in Longyou, was also defeated and captured, and now Xue Ju has defeated our two people in a row, and eliminated Tang Bi, almost all of his troops, I am afraid that the whole army will soon march and advance to Guanzhong, and Fufeng is the gateway to Guanzhong, so there can be no loss!" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said, "This is an inevitable thing, and it is a common thing for soldiers to take advantage of the victory." This time, I deliberately left the troops of Luoyang Hui Division and rushed back first, just to clean up this Xue Ju. It was to induce Xue Jutu to pass in my Guanzhong, so as to eliminate his main force in one fell swoop, this was a plan that my father had set up early on, and it was also one of the reasons why my father asked me and my eldest brother to lead troops to the Eastern Capital. ”

Dou Jin wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, his expression eased slightly, and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good, with the help of the mighty Duke Qin, then defeating Xue Ju is not a problem, I also have 13,000 soldiers and horses in the prefecture and county here, all of them are at your disposal, Duke Qin!" ”

Li Shimin said with a straight face: "Okay, now ask the Dou County Guard to withdraw all the troops from the county!" ”

"Withdraw, withdraw? Why, why ... Dou Jin's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say.

Li Shimin smiled slightly and explained: "Back then, Cao Cao invaded Jingzhou on a large scale, and when Liu Bei was evacuating Xinye, he used Zhuge Liang's strategy to successfully ambush a Cao army in Xinye City, and defeated Cao Ren's department, the vanguard of the Cao army. And this time I also have to do the same thing, I specially brought more than 20,000 elite cavalry of Guan Long that my father had prepared a long time ago, and now they are hidden in the Qishan Jiankuo Ridge fifteen miles north of the city, they are composed of Xiaoguo knights in Guanzhong and the cavalry of our Taiyuan uprising, and their combat effectiveness is very fierce, and they are specially designed to deal with Xue Ju's Longyou cavalry! ”

Hearing this, Dou Jin changed his worries to joy, and arched his hand: "In this way, I won't say much in the future, and act directly according to the will of Duke Qin!" ”
