Li Shimin saw that the Xuanjia Army was blindly charging, and the effect achieved without flexible scheduling was greatly reduced, and he couldn't help but be dissatisfied with Hou Junji a little more. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe appointment of him as the commander of the Xuanjia Army is not only a recognition of his ability, but also a test of his character; As a result, this guy didn't have the ability to say, but he was too eager for success.

As a last resort, Li Shimin had no choice but to go into battle in person and lead the Xuanjia Army to gallop through the crowd. The addition of the Xuanjia Army became the last straw that broke the camel's back; The Tiger Master suddenly fell into a panic and began to collapse locally, triggering a large-scale chain reaction.

"Rush out! Kill me out! Mo Helu set up a secret gritted his teeth when he saw that things were not to be done, and led people to start killing. The elite of the Tiger Division heard the order to retreat, and everyone fought bravely, and everyone rushed to the front and began to run out.

Li Shimin was willing to let go, and chased after him, and only after seeing that they were out of the back mountain, they stopped the pace of pursuit.

"Poof!" As soon as he relaxed, Li Shimin felt a burning pain in his back, and fell off the horse all of a sudden. Tang Jun was shocked and hurriedly ran over to watch, and found that Li Shimin didn't know when he was hit by a stray arrow, and half of his body was dyed red with blood.

"Medic officer! Medic officer! Li Yuanba's anxious tears flowed down and he roared loudly. The military medical officer hurriedly ran over, pulled off Li Shimin's armor and found that the arrow did not hurt again, but only bleed too much, and there should be no problem after resting for a while.

Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and after a simple bandage, the battlefield was cleaned; Count casualties. As soon as the casualty figures were reported, Li Shimin's face was pale, and he was ambushed, and the number of people was more than double that of the other party, plus the help of a strong bow and crossbow; This time, he killed 15,000 tiger divisions, and he also lost 12,000 people, so he didn't take much advantage at all.

"Let's go!" Li Shimin snorted coldly, led his army to continue north, and then stationed in Gaoqian City to echo Zhang Changxun in Xiqian City.

When Xue Ju and the others saw that Mo Helu led the remnants of the army to return defeated, and secretly gloated in their hearts, they were a little surprised by the strength of the Tang army. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Tanma to come with the news that Li Shimin had led a large army to bring Gaojaw City to threaten the flank of the coalition army.

After urgent consultations, they decided to divide their troops to besiege them, leaving Liang Shidu and the Turks to besiege Xidun City, and Xue Ju and his son led 50,000 troops and 30,000 Golden Wolf Army to Gaoqi City to attack Li Shimin.

Since Li Shimin arrived in Gaodun City, he has been groggy and has a high fever; Although there were medical officers who treated them, they had little effect.

Li Shimin gathered his generals and said: "After Xue Ju became the emperor, his selfish desires swelled, and he became a murderous demon king, never leaving prisoners in every battle, and often slaughtering the city and plundering property; It is hated by the people; We call on the people of the city to resist, and everyone will do their best to kill the enemy.

Moreover, their grain and grass come from plunder, and they do not store much; Therefore, Xue Ju must want to fight quickly; And we just didn't let him get his wish, and I decided not to drag them down; And then annihilated in one fell swoop.

During this period of time, I was unwell, and all actions were presided over by Liu Wenjing, and the generals must obey orders, if there is any violation of military law. ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to say much, and bowed down to receive the order. The next day, Xue Ju's father and son led people to fight against each other, but the Gaojaw City was closed without fighting, and Xue Renguo's commanders attacked the city, but they were also forced to retreat by the Tang army's strong bows and crossbows.

The Western Front entered the stage of stalemate, but the balance of victory was tilting in favor of Li Tang; It's just that Li Shimin has been suffering from a high fever, which makes Tang Jun worried.

After Li Shimin went to the western front to resist Xue Ju, Liu Wu quickly raised troops on Monday, and within one day, the vanguard general Wei Chi Gong captured three Xiongguan passes in Yanmen, Lou Fu and Dingxiang, and the army went straight to Shanxi.

Li Yuanji not only successfully retained the position of General Zhenbei and Taiyuan through the protection of the village elders, but also gave Chai Shao an eye medicine in front of Li Yuan; As a result, Chai Shao is now staying in Chang'an and is not reused.

Hearing that Liu Wuzhou's army was coming, Li Yuanji hurriedly ordered his general Zhang Da to send troops to drive them out; As a result, Zhang Da ambushed the Turkic Duyangling in Chaishao, and was also ambushed by the enemy. Zhang Da's army of 50,000 was completely annihilated, and he himself was killed by Wei Chigong.

Wei Chigong once again showed his might, and overnight he connected eight large villages such as Yuci, Jiezhou, and Shizhou, and approached Taiyuan to make the Tang army frightened.

Li Yuanji was shocked three times a day when he got the report, so he summoned his civil and military forces to discuss how to hold Taiyuan. Everyone talked about it, some said to retreat, and some said to stick to it; Let Li Yuanji not make up his mind.

Li Yuan arranged for Dou Dan and Yu Wenxin, who assisted Li Yuanji, to advocate giving up Taiyuan, but Dou Dan was afraid of death because he was timid, but Yu Wenxin thought that Li Yuanji had lost the people's hearts and minds of Taiyuan and it was impossible to hold it.

The two of them found Li Yuanji at night, and tried every persuasion to finally dispel Li Yuanji's plan to defend Taiyuan and fight a decisive battle with the enemy.

The next day, Li Yuanji found Sima Liu Dewei and left him a part of the old and weak soldiers to let him hold the city; He claimed that he was going out of the city with his elite soldiers to fight the enemy. As a result, he took his wife and concubine, under the protection of elite soldiers, and ran back to Chang'an in a puff of smoke; left Taiyuan to Liu Dewei.

Until the enemy soldiers approached the city, Liu Dewei didn't know that Li Yuanji had run away; The thousands of old and weak soldiers under his command could not hold a huge Taiyuan city at all; Under the attack of the enemy, there were dangers everywhere, and Liu Dewei ran everywhere to put out fires, but he was quickly captured by the enemy.

When Liu Dewei saw Liu Wuzhou, he knew that Li Yuanji had run away, and surrendered angrily. Liu Wuzhou also heard of his virtuous name, and asked him to reinstate himself as an official, continue to lead his subordinates, and help him attack Haozhou.

After Li Yuanji fled back to Chang'an, Li Yuan was furious and dismissed him from all positions, and Yu Wenxin, who had fled Li Yuanji, was held accountable. He was full of anger and said to Li Gang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites: "Yuanji is young and not familiar with military and political affairs, so he sent Dou Dan and Yu Wenxin to assist him. There are tens of thousands of strong men and horses, and the military rations have been allocated in advance for ten years, and I raised the banner of righteousness to fight the birthplace of the country, and I lost it in the blink of an eye. Yu Wenxin took the lead in proposing this strategy, and I want to kill him. ”

Li Gang said: "Thanks to Yu Wenxin, His Majesty did not lose his beloved son, and I think he has merit." Gaozu asked the reason, and Li Gang replied: "The sin lies in Dou Dan's failure to persuade the king of Qi, which caused the soldiers and the people to be resentful and angry.

Besides, the king of Qi was young, unscrupulously doing arrogant and indulgent things, indulging the people around him, and plundering the people's property. Dou Dan did not advise and stop it, but let him cover him, so he caused the root cause, which is Dou Dan's responsibility. Yuwen Xin talked about being more estranged from his feelings, and the time to get close to him was short, and he had already played all the mistakes of King Qi. What's more, it's a matter between father and son, others are not good at talking, but Yu Wenxin said it, isn't it still loyal? I think it is very inappropriate to hold him accountable now, and not to convince him. ”

The next day, Gaozu invited Li Gang into the palace, let him sit beside him, and said, "Now that I have you, the punishment will not lose its proportion." Motoyoshi committed his own sins and formed a grudge against others. Yu Wenxin once played a performance, how could Dou Dan stop it, it was not their fault. Soon, Li Yuanji was appointed as Shizhong, Xiangzhou Daoxing Taishang Shuling, and Jizhou Thorn History.

Then Li Yuan appointed Pei Lin as the head of the march of Jinyang Road, and asked him to lead an army of 100,000 to recover Taiyuan.

When Liu Wuzhou heard that Pei Lin was coming, he hurriedly summoned Song Jingang and others to discuss, Song Jingang smiled and said: "Wang Jia doesn't have to worry, although this Pei Lin made great contributions when Li Tang raised his army; But this person is timid by nature, and he can only be a military advisor to check and fill in the gaps, and he is not a general at all. Please let the king give me 50,000 horses, and his original intention was to break through Pei Lian. ”

Liu Wuzhou was overjoyed when he heard this, so he accepted Song Jingang's request, making him the commander-in-chief, Huang Ziying the general, and Wei Chi Jingde and Xunxiang as the vanguard, leading an army of 50,000 to resist Pei Lian. He himself, Liang Shidu and the Turkic soldiers, a total of 50,000, made a detour through the Weize Pass to prepare to enter the east of the river and raid the Guanzhong.

Song Jingang led the army all the way to Dusuoyuan, Jiangzhou, where he confronted Pei Lin according to the city. Pei Lian's 100,000-strong army set up several miles of joint camps and challenged day after day; Song Jingang refused to leave the city; Pei Lin waved his army to attack the city, but was blocked by Song Jingang and couldn't advance for a while.

Pei Lin was worried about how to break Song Jingang, and suddenly his subordinates came to report that there was no drinking water in the army, and there was already a shortage of water in this place, and the water source of the Tang army was based on a mountain stream. Now that the stream was dug up by Song Jingang, the Tang army was in danger of cutting off the water.

Pei Lin was shocked, how can an army of 100,000 live without water? He hurriedly ordered his men to set up camp and find a place with water to camp again.

The transfer of a hundred thousand troops was not a trivial matter at first sight, and his order was given; Everyone didn't know where to find a water source, so they began to pull out the camp in a daze, and the entire Tang army was in chaos.

Of course, Song Jingang would not let go of this good opportunity, and the army went out of the city to cover up and kill, and defeated the Tang army at once; Pei lonely fled.

In particular, Wei Chigong seemed to have a grudge against Li Tang, urging the moon oolong horse, shaking the turtle-backed camel dragon spear, and killing it first; The Tang army touched it, and it died next to it.

The general Qin Baoyi urged the war horse to dance the spear to fight, but he was not stabbed under the horse in five or six rounds. Li Zhongwen also started to fight when he saw the horse and dance with a knife, but the result was only Shihe, and his head was broken by the whip in his gun, and the dead body was planted under the horse.

Pei Lin was so frightened that he ran back to Jiangzhou; By the time we got here, we had already lost half of it.

Song Jingang sent Wei Chi Gong to lead 10,000 horses, falsely claiming to be 50,000, showing off his might outside Jiangzhou, he and Huang Ziying, divided their troops into two routes, and successively attacked Jiangxian, Longmen County and Yicheng; Jiangzhou will be completely isolated.

Pei Lin woke up at this time, but it was too late; Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy had not yet closed the siege, he led the army to withdraw from Jiangzhou overnight and fled back to Jinyang. Pei Lin had no choice but to plead guilty. Tang Gaozu issued an edict of consolation, and asked him to pacify Hedong.
