On the official road outside Xia County, a knight rode out of Xia County, and when he walked to a dense forest, a rope was pulled up, and the knight on the horse was tripped and fell to the ground, and before he could actually get up from the ground, two or three people were pressed down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info actually wanted to struggle, and was directly stabbed into a few daggers, and immediately stopped moving. The men searched the knight and found several letters and a token inside:

"Lord Zhou, it is indeed a messenger sent by Lu Chongyue to Luoyang." Zhou Donghe looked at the letter and token, and nodded:

"Bury the body right away, take the horses away, and leave no traces." After a while, the whole dense forest was calm again. And Li Shimin also got the news of the mutiny in Xia County. The eldest grandson Wuji said to Li Shimin:

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, congratulations to His Royal Highness the Prince, as expected by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, then Lu Chongyue is not dead, and he has connected Lu Chongmao's old department, and has taken the entire Xia County City, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, what should we do next?" Li Shimin smiled:

"We..." Li Shimin was about to say Hu, when he heard the voice of Chi Jingde, the head lieutenant outside the tent:

"Get out of the way, General Ben wants to see King Qin!"

"Please leave, His Royal Highness King Qin is discussing matters with Lord Eldest Sun, and he has issued a strict order that no one should disturb him!" Immediately afterwards, I heard Liu Hongji's voice:

"Wei Chi Jingde, why do you still have the face to stand here, that Xun Xiang is your old friend and colleague, that day, General Ben has always opposed the waste left in Xia County by Xun Xiang, now it's okay, Xia County is lost, if we are attacked by Song Jingang and Lu Chongyue on both sides, is it your Wei Chi Jingde to buy us a coffin!" Wei Chi Jingde knelt in front of Li Shimin's tent and shouted loudly:

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Yu Chi Jingde is asking to see you outside the tent, please see the prince on the next side. His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Wei Chi Jingde asked to see him outside the tent, and asked the prince to see him next. Li Shimin shouted inside the tent:

"What's so noisy! Didn't you hear the king's command? This king and the eldest grandson are discussing important matters, what are you arguing about outside? After the door curtain opened, Li Shimin's angry face was revealed:

"What are you arguing about outside?" When Liu Hongji and Wei Chi Jingde saw Li Shimin come out, they immediately knelt in front of Li Shimin:

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the last general heard that Xia County is a toast to Lu Chongyue to reoccupy it, so I specially came to ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin for life, just ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin to let the last general go to recover Xia County, the last general does not need many soldiers and horses, as long as he brings more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters!" Liu Hongji also asked:

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, that Wei Chi Jingde is suspected of defecting to the enemy after all, please ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin to take him into custody and hand it over to the last general and the eldest grandson Wuji for interrogation before making a decision." Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and asked the eldest grandson Wuji:

"Auxiliary! What do you think? The eldest grandson Wuji pinched his beard:

"Your Highness, General Wei Chi Jingde is loyal, and the fall of Xia County should be that Lord Xun Xiang is a light enemy, so there is a loss, in addition, the two brothers Lu Chongmao and Lu Chongyue have also been operating in Xia County for so many years, and the people's hearts are still there, so the lower officials think that this matter has nothing to do with General Wei Chi Jingde."

"Your Highness, the lower officials thought it was ......" Liu Hongji wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Shimin. Li Shimin helped Wei Chi Jingde up:

"General Wei Chi, what are you doing here?" Wei Chi Jingde still knelt in front of Li Shimin and did not stand up:

"Please ask His Royal Highness the King of Qin to promise the last general and let the last general go to recover Xia County." Li Shimin shook his head:

"Hahahaha! To recover Xia County, General Chi Jingde will not bother with it. Wei Chi Jingde's face was a little disappointed. But Li Shimin's next sentence raised Wei Chi Jingde's momentum again:

"General Wei Chi, don't worry about this Xia County matter for the time being."

"Don't bother?" Wei Chi Jingde was confused. Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji continued to help Wei Chi Jingde up, and recruited Wei Chi Jingde and Liu Hongji into the tent together:

"Auxiliary! You go and find Liu Wenjing, Chai Shao, Yin Kaishan, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Liang and other adults. This king has something to say. The guards took the order and left. After a while, Liu Wenjing and others came.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I heard that Xia County was lost, so our grain and grass supply ......"

"Don't worry about grain and grass, when it was pulled out from Xia County, the prince ordered to prepare two more months of grain and grass under Xia, besides, although Xia County has fallen, but Lu Chongyue has few soldiers and few people, and we will recover Xia County sooner or later." There is also the prince who has already ordered the lower officials to monitor the movements, and he has already arrested several waves of messengers who sent letters from Xia County to Song Jingang in Jinzhou, so Song Jingang will definitely not know the news of Xia County. Hearing the eldest grandson Wuji's explanation and Li Shimin's firm eyes, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. Li Shimin then spoke:

"Everyone, the most important thing now is that we have to capture Jinju as soon as possible, and when we capture Jinju, we will go back and deal with Xia County." As soon as Wei Chi Jingde heard that he was going to attack Jinju, he immediately stood up:

"Your Highness, the last general, Chi Jingde, has been here for many days, eating all his rice, this time this pioneer position, the last general is willing to take the initiative to take the initiative." Liu Hongji also stood up:

"Lord Wang, Weichen is also willing to take the position of pioneer." When Wei Chi Jingde saw Liu Hongji fighting with him, he thought that Liu Hongji was a descendant of Li Tang, and he was a general, so he immediately lowered his head. Li Shimin said with a smile:

"The two generals don't have to fight. In this battle of Jinju, the two generals have to contribute! In this battle of Jinju, the two generals were pioneers, General Liu Hongji attacked the south gate of Jinju, General Yu Chi Jingde attacked the west gate of Jinju, and other generals and the king set up an ambush at the east gate. Hearing that Li Shimin did not explain the ambush at the north gate, everyone felt strange, and the eldest grandson Wuji asked:

"Lord Wang! Why don't you set up tasks at the North Gate. ”

"Huh! If Song Jingang wanted to escape, it was very likely that he would flee east and go to Qilu to join Dou Jiande. There is the king's younger brother in the north, Song Jingang will not fall into the net, and even if Song Jingang can escape to the Turks, will the Turkic Lingli Khan and Anyi Khotun let Song Jingang go? Because he did not participate in the 100-day banquet of the Turkic crown prince Ashina to buy the prince, he had already offended Lingli Khan and An Yi Kedun, did Song Jingang dare to go? I'm afraid to go is death. Therefore, this king thought that Song Jingang would definitely break through to the east gate. In addition, the sow gorge in the east is the main road to Hebei, and when the time comes, an ambush will be set up there, and Song Jingang will be captured in one fell swoop. After hearing this, everyone immediately complimented Li Shimin:

"The prince is wise!" On the tower of Jinzhou City, Yu Chi Jingde and Liu Hongji were like crazy, storming Jinzhou City like a game, once, Song Jingang in order to alleviate Yu Chi Jingde's offensive, on the city tower, he hoped to be able to let Yu Chi Jingde raise his noble hand with the same thing that belonged to Liu Wuzhou's old department:

"General Wei Chi, you and I used to be courtiers in front of the first master, and now we are mobilizing troops, I'm afraid it's not good!" But Song Jingang knew that Liu Wuzhou had already secretly instructed Yu Chi Jingde - let Yu Chi Jingde secretly contain Song Jingang, plus now that Liu Wuzhou is dead (the news that Liu Wuzhou is not dead, no one in Ma Yi knows), Yu Chi Jingde has now regarded Li Shimin as his master, plus there is also a Liu Hongji next to him to compete with Yu Chi Jingde, and Yu Chi Jingde is trying to use Song Jingang's head as a gift to consolidate his position in the Tang Army! So the answer to Song Jingang was a burst of bows and arrows, and a more fierce offensive. Song Jingang was covered by the shield soldiers under his hands, and after escorting him to the mansion, he picked up a teacup on the table, and suddenly found that it was empty, so he threw the teacup out directly:

"Horse-stepping, bastard, this Wei Chi Jingde doesn't read it at all, this time it seems that I, Song Jingang, am going to die here." The cronies next to him persuaded:

"Marshal, run away! Sooner or later, we will be captured by Li Tang. ”

"Withdraw! Where to retreat? ”

"Marshal, according to the Malay report, don't there be no Tang troops at the north and east gates? Do we take the North Gate or the East Gate. ”

"Humph! North Gate, East Gate, then Li Shimin must have set up an ambush at the East Gate, and the North Gate, do you dare to go? Ma Yi has been broken by Li Yuanji, and even if I fled to the Turks, can I let me go? ”

"So what do we do?"

"Okay, let's go to the east gate, and do everything according to the orders of the marshal." When a group of knights came to the east gate, they shouted to the east gate:

"Open the city gate quickly, Marshal Song Jingang and Song Marshal will go out of the city." When the east gate was opened, a knight said to the sergeant guarding the east gate:

"Marshal Song has an order, immediately notify the whole city, open the four gates, and anyone who wants to escape or surrender is free!" The knights left through the east gate, and after the knights left, the city of Jinju was immediately spread everywhere:

"Song Jingang has escaped, everyone has also descended!" Immediately, Jinju City was in turmoil, and in front of the two gates of the north gate and the east gate were soldiers and civilians who had fled, and some of the rebellious troops even took the opportunity to grab money. The south gate and the west gate also took the opportunity to open the city gate and surrender to Liu Hongji and Wei Chi Jingde. The group of knights who had left from the east gate were walking on the official road leading to Hebei Province, and were about to pass through Sow Gorge, and the group of knights immediately became vigilant:

"Everyone is on alert, after passing the Sow Gorge, we will go to the border of Hebei, and when we see King Dou, we will be safe." While the group of knights was walking some distance in Sow Gorge, several large stones fell from the top of Sow Gorge, blocking the front and rear exits of Sow Gorge. On the top of the canyon, Li Shimin showed his head:

"Marshal Song, now you have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. Lay down your arms, take off your armor, and surrender to the king! If you are willing to surrender, the king promises to spare your life. Who knew that the leader of the group of knights laughed and said:

"Hahaha! Li Shimin, you have been fooled, Marshal Song has already fled, I am Marshal Song's personal soldier, on the order of Marshal Song, pretending to be out of the city, the real Marshal Song is not with us. We also don't know where Marshal Song went. Li Shimin felt that he had been greatly fooled, and said to the archers beside him:

"Shoot! Shoot a rocket at this king. They were burned to ashes by the king, and the order was passed down, saying that Song Jingang resisted fiercely, refused to surrender, and burned himself to death. Just report to Chang'an like this! After Li Shimin captured Jinzhou, he led Wei Chi Jingde and Liu Hongji and other troops to return to Xia County, and first sent people under the city to persuade Lu Chongyue to lead the whole city of Xia County to surrender, saying that if one is not killed, even Lu Chongyue can be pardoned, but Lu Chongyue did not believe it at all, and shot Li Shimin's messenger, Li Shimin was furious, and ordered to break through Xia County, and slaughtered the city for three days, and Xia County became a hell on earth.
