Daddy ordered 2,000 men and attacked Wudu'er's flank with great fanfare, but in fact he did not use all his strength, but only stopped harassing him in moderation, and immediately withdrew his troops and returned, and there were not many casualties on both sides.

The main general personally led the troops out of the battle, and came back with a slight sneak attack, which was definitely not in line with the wishes of his soldiers, who at first thought that they would fight a tough battle with less to more.

After my dad came back, there was almost a commotion in the Chinese military tent, but I knew that the best was still to come.

The other night did not wait for the attack of the other side, and the soldiers had finished resting, and they were going to do the opposite and attack their territory.

Daddy, with the 2,000 men who had been withdrawn during the day, secretly went around to the rear of the rebel army stationed outside the city, while I ambushed 50 archers directly opposite the barracks, just over a hundred paces away from them.

As soon as the hour arrived, I bent my bow and shot an arrow at the guard at the camp gate, and the other man fell in response. Then there was a rain of arrows, and the camp on the opposite side was suddenly in chaos. Dad launched an attack on the flank, at that time there were not many people outside the city, but most of them were desperate peasant troops, and the regular army of the imperial court was really vulnerable, Longmen County sent troops to rescue, I returned with archers at night, the north side of the opponent's military camp gradually quieted down, and Dad also withdrew.

I suddenly began to worry about whether something would happen to Zimin, although Tang Lin was guarding her, and there was no reason for this worry. She and Tang Lin took a dozen soldiers disguised as rebels and took advantage of the chaos to infiltrate Longmen County, intending to open the city gate as an internal response when attacking the city the next day.

I originally stopped her from going, but my father agreed, just as she connived at Sanniang in the army, he also connived at Zimin. I realized that Zimin's skills were also very good, but I had never seen her dance and sword before. I thought about it, and it was right, that day in the open space of the wooden house, she also said that she would be able to watch my sword moves once, with such understanding, and Wang Qi's swordsmanship was not bad, she would make the sword a matter of course.

But I'm still worried.

After the chaos just now, the city of Longmen County did not completely restore order until dawn.

Dad advanced the time of eating by an hour, and when the soldiers had breakfast, he led the main army to the city of Longmen County and began to attack the city.

It didn't take much time to capture the Dragon Gate, because not long after the siege began, the city gate in the southeast and southeast was opened. The leader of the rebel army has fled, but what will happen to the nearly 10,000 people who remain in the city and are captured outside the city?

There are two diametrically opposed factions in the Chinese military tent, some people advocate that the rebels and thieves should be killed on the spot, and some people think that surrendering and not killing will help the next war, Dad touched his beard and shook his head and nodded, and then looked at me.

Of course, I am the one who advocates surrender and not kill. If we kill these people, then the resistance we encounter will only be more intense, there are rebels everywhere, there is a man named Chai Baochang in Jiangzhou who also led more than 10,000 people to revolt, even if the uprising can be quelled now, I am afraid that there will be more and more uprisings in the future, what should I do then?

My father and I saw the same thing, he took in all the people who wanted to stay, and let go the rest who didn't want to continue the war.

Of course, this is not enough, the most important thing is to capture the leader of the rebel army.

After the capture of Longmen, Dad thought about it, left all the baggage and men and horses behind, and took 5,000 soldiers and horses to chase after him lightly.

Within a day, news came, Dad pursued Wuduaner to Huoyi, and shot Wuduan'er off the horse with an arrow in Huoyi, except for Wuduaner, Dad shot a total of more than 70 arrows, none of the arrows missed, and the rebels were frightened and surrendered. In this way, Daddy subdued more than 20,000 people from the other side with 5,000 troops.

After I took the men and horses to meet with my father, Zimin calculated for us, and now my father has 100,000 troops that can be mobilized, and the 10,000 people who went to fight Chai Baochang in such a position are simply not worth mentioning.

The book says that "ten times surrounded", Chai Baochang almost surrendered without a fight. Daddy adheres to the consistent policy of not killing anyone who surrenders. The uprisings in the western land of Hedong were put down one by one, and Yang Guang was very happy, and pardoned me for the crime of following Pei Ju to make the Turks unfavorable, and made me the county governor of Hedong.

Dad began to feel that Daxing City was not safe, he thought about it for a while, and decided to move all the people from the Tang State Mansion to Hedong County first, so as not to be pinned down in the capital one day.

As soon as I settled down in Hedong County and Zimin, I began to talk about the people of the Tang Kingdom Mansion who were going to move in. Zimin sometimes looks in the direction of Luoyang in a daze. I didn't think it before, but now I can actually feel Zimin's thoughts, and she wants to go back and see.

Actually, I don't know when I first noticed her, maybe that night when she cried after I refused to go with me to the army, I realized that she also had joys and sorrows.

At the end of summer, when Zimin and I appeared in the wooden house, we found that the firewood was closed and there was no trace.

Zimin looked at the hidden door, turned to me, and suddenly leaned on my chest and cried. Her crying faded away, but I could still feel her head fluttering as I waited for me, and her reaction told me that the old man Ziyi had passed away.

I didn't feel very sad, I just felt that my heart was very vicissitudes, and I was a little numb to life and death. I thought this to myself, but I couldn't find the words to comfort Zimin, and I didn't want her to think that I was too ruthless.

But my mind can never escape Zimin's eyes, my emotions Zimin is also very clear, she knows that I am not too sad, in fact, after she cried, she was not very sad in front of the grave built by Wang Qi for the old man Ziyi.

"Did you have a hunch?" I knelt in front of the grave of the old man Ziyi and asked Zimin, who was kneeling side by side with me.

She nodded and said, "When I came back from Yanmen, I just arrived here." ”

I asked, "Why not?" ”

She looked at me for a moment, her eyes clouded, and the question I asked seemed to touch on some sore spot that she didn't want to say.

She shook her head and didn't answer.

We stayed at the old man Ziyi for a few days, and when we returned to the Hedong County Office, Mrs. Wan came to Hedong with people from the Tang State Mansion, including Li Shimin's new wife, Changsun Wuyue, but Li Shimin did not come with him, and was called to the subordinates of Yun Dingxing, the general of Tunwei.

It turned out that after Shibi Khan was killed in Shi Shu Huxi, he had a bad relationship with Yang Guang, and when Yang Guang inspected Yanmen Pass, he led hundreds of thousands of Turkic soldiers to surround Yang Guang and other cars in Yanmen.

Yang Guang couldn't break through, so he recruited the world's soldiers, and there must be brave men under the heavy reward, and Li Shimin has always been very interested in fighting, so he decisively joined the army when he had this opportunity.
