A group of elite Xia infantry rushed towards the cavalry led by Li Shimin, and it was clear that they were going to flee. The Tang cavalry raised their snowy swords and fiercely rushed over. When the two armies were about to approach, the Xia army suddenly shot a rain of arrows, and the Tang army's horses fell to the ground one after another, and the two sides were in a scuffle.

"Kill!" Cheng Zhijie, Pei Xingyan and Qin Qiong were like a bloody man, killing through the protection of the infantry and crushing the archers of the Zheng army. Li Shimin took the opportunity to lead the cavalry to charge and defeat this elite army.

The rest of Dou Jiande's army had collapsed, and clusters of Xia soldiers rushed past them like a river, and when the Tang army quickly caught up with the snow light, many Xia soldiers knelt down and surrendered.

Dou Jiande, who was camping on the hillside, saw that the form had reached this point, and knew that he was powerless to return to the sky, so he had to lead the army to withdraw from the hillside, preparing to seize the road and escape.

His movements were seen by Li Shimin, who was rushing to kill, and he hurriedly shouted to the soldiers around him: "Our cavalry should rush to the front and hold all the enemy's deserters!" Cheng Zhijie and the others hurriedly led the cavalry to rush forward regardless of it.

Li Shimin paused slightly, and then roared, "Pursuit!" So, in the midst of the smoke and dust in all directions, a cloud of smoke rose up again.

Under the fierce impact of the Tang cavalry, the cavalry of the Xia Kingdom had already been scattered, and Dou Jiande, who relied on the protection of the cavalry, was hit by a lance and fled to Niukouzhu alone.

The Tang Dynasty chariot generals Bai Shirang and Yang Wuwei gradually approached him; When Dou Jiande saw that the pursuers had arrived, he severely whipped the horse's buttocks and urged the horse to run quickly; The horse accidentally stumbled and fell to the ground in a panic, and Dou Jiande's body flew past the horse's head and fell heavily to the ground. Bai Shirang galloped closer, raised his lance and stabbed Dou Jiande in the chest.

At this moment, someone shouted: "Stop, thief! Don't hurt my lord, Wang Fubao again! As soon as the words fell, a burly man hit the horse like a fly; The Zhangba snake spear spear in his hand was distracted and stabbed.

Bai Shirang and Yang Wuwei hurriedly gave up Dou Jiande and came to fight Wang Fubao. The spear in Wang Fubao's hand danced like a black dragon to kill the two of them, and then protected Dou Jiande to continue to retreat.

Wang Fubao protected Dou Jiande and fled all the way, and met Liu Heimin and Su Dingfang on the way, and once again gathered more than 10,000 defeated soldiers. Dou Jiande only remembered Song Zhengben at these times, and he cried loudly on the horse: "If the original is still there, I will have today's defeat?" ”

Wang Fubao received heavy gifts from Wang Wan and the eldest grandson An Shi at that time, and he was most opposed to Song Zhengben's plan. After listening to Dou Jiande's words, he thought wildly in his heart, and felt that Dou Jiande meant something; So he interrupted Dou Jiande's words and said: "Your Majesty, the urgent thing to delay now is to leave here quickly and return to Hebei to make a comeback." ”

Dou Jiande let out a long sigh and nodded; and the crowd hurriedly fled like Hebei; As a result, after walking less than two steps, suddenly shouting and killing rang out, and an ironclad army blocked the way, led by Li Yuanba and Wei Chi Jingde.

Liu Heimin and Wang Fubao looked at it and shouted: "Dingfang, you protect Your Majesty first, and we will stop them." As he spoke, the two of them urged their horses and came up with some of their elite soldiers.

The two teams roared and collided violently. Dou Jiande saw that his subordinates were slaughtered like sheep who had no power to fight back, so he couldn't help but close his eyes, and ran away with Su Dingfang.

Li Yuanba saw Liu Heimin so angry that he shouted: "Big black boy, today, let me again; Bump, bump you; Look at you; Also, where are you going! Let's hammer it! As he spoke, he swirled the drum urn and smashed the golden hammer on his head.

Liu Heimin was startled when he saw Li Yuanba, but Li Yuanba found him directly, and had no choice but to smash it with a stick as a last resort, making a desperate appearance.

Wei Chi Jingde and Wang Fubao's martial arts are almost the same, and the two of them have two guns, and they are twisted together; It's like two angry black dragons fighting inextricably for a while.

Liu Heimin and Li Yuanba didn't have a few face-to-face fights, and they really couldn't dodge; The big stick was smashing on the drum urn and the golden hammer with a bang; was shocked to the point that his arm was numb, and the tiger's mouth cracked. As soon as he saw that Dou Jiande had disappeared, he ran away without saying a word.

Li Yuanba was just about to chase after him, but he found that Wang Fubao was fighting with Yu Chigong by his side, and he was itching to go immediately is a hammer.

"Dang!" Wang Fubao's spear was beaten like a curved bow, and the man spurted blood so much that he almost fell off his horse.

Wei Chi Jingde followed, and he pulled out an eighteen water-milled steel whip, "Woo! The sound hit Wang Fubao's head, holding down all the helmets he had hit; The skull shattered, and he fell off his horse and died.

The two of them scattered the intercepting soldiers, and then chased in the direction that Dou Jiande had run.

Dou Jiande fled with less than a thousand people on horseback, they ran for more than ten miles, and there was a shout of killing in front, and a pair of men and horses blocked the way. The leader is none other than Duan Zhixuan, the general of the Great Demon Kingdom.

"King Xia! It's already over, and when will you not surrender? ”

Dou Jiande was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, and he said to the surrounding generals: "Everyone, hurry up and escort and break out of the encirclement." I have returned to Le Shou and I have a heavy reward. ”

The generals will look at me, and I will look at you; No one charged. The general Li is invincible, and Li Po's brother is greedy for the merit of saving the driver, and he is about to rush forward when he urges the horse.

As a result, as soon as they moved their bodies, they listened to the evil wind behind them. The two of them were shocked, and when they looked back, they found a flash of knife light; Before they could figure out what was going on, they felt a pain in their necks, and their heads were about to fly into the sky.

"Ahh Xia Jun was taken aback, and the little morale he had just raised disappeared. Dou Jiande turned his head and found that it was his henchman Su Dingfang who made the shot.

"It's you! You, why are you betraying me! ”

Su Dingfang handed over his left hand, shook his head and said, "King Xia, I'm really sorry; When the four armies attacked the Great Demon Kingdom together, I had already been ambushed and surrendered to the Great Demon Kingdom. The Demon King Chitose let me come back and listen to the details of the Xia Kingdom.

Let's be honest! This expedition to Luoyang was promoted by me behind the scenes. It was also my idea for the eldest grandson An Shi and Wang Wan to visit and bribe the generals and let you kill Song Zhengben; It's just that you want to take advantage of Li Tang's plan to herd horses in Hebei and take the opportunity to attack them, and I leaked it to Li Tang. ”

Dou Jiande was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and glared angrily: "Why? I, Dou Jiande, treat you well, why rebel against me. ”

Su Dingfang looked at Dou Jiande for a long time, and suddenly sighed and said: "King Xia, you are benevolent and loyal, and the people love you; But this is a woman's kindness. When you see the poor, you may shed tears of sadness, or even be clothed and fed in the palace; Set an example for the world.

But you can't make the people rich, and you'd rather mold the grain and grass you have hoarded than give it to the people. For a while, the people may be moved by your benevolence, and they will support Bactria without asking for anything in return.

But after a long time, everyone recognizes your true colors, who will help you? ”

Dou Jiande's face couldn't stop changing, and he couldn't say a word to refute it for a long time.

Su Dingfang continued: "There is also King Xia, you are wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, and you are suspicious of people; I can't listen to advice. The loyal Song Zhengben was killed, and the high-ranking General Wang Fubao was snubbed. Neither the military nor the civilian population will dare to contradict your decision.

You have made a promise in the Great Xia Dynasty, but you have buried the future of the Great Xia Dynasty, the King of Xia, listen to me, quickly dismount and surrender, and you can still save your life; If you resist stubbornly, it is inevitable that your life will not be saved. ”

Dou Jiande let out a long sigh, threw down the saber in his hand, turned over and dismounted and sat on the ground and said, "Let's go!" Cease! Cease! Su Lie asked me to be a ghost, and I will also give you this great merit and great wealth. Come on! ”

Su Lie and Duan Zhixuan helped him with a cloth belt, put him on the horse and took him back to the tiger prison to see Li Shimin.

Li Shimin had already returned to the Tiger Prison at this time, and heard that Dou Jiande had been arrested; Hurriedly asked people to push him in.

"Don't kneel yet!" The guard Lu Chong shouted, "When you see King Qin, you dare not kneel!" As he spoke, he grabbed Dou Jiande's shoulder and pressed it down sharply.

Dou Jiande stood straight, his expression calm.

"Forget it!" Li Shimin waved his hand to let Lu Chong retreat. Li Shimin reproached Dou Jiande and said, "I ask Wang Shichong for myself, what does it matter to you, you dare to cross the border and invade and block my soldiers!" ”

Dou Jiande sighed and said, "If I don't send it myself, I'm afraid I'll have to ask you for an expedition!" ”

Li Shimin laughed and asked angrily: "Why don't you follow the mandate of heaven and automatically surrender to my Tang Dynasty?" ”

Dou Jiande shook his head and did not answer.

Li Shimin secretly respected Dou Jiande, so he didn't say anything more, and ordered Dou Jiande to be imprisoned and given preferential treatment in life.

Dou Jiande's army collapsed so quickly that of the more than 100,000 troops, less than 10,000 were killed on the battlefield, 50,000 were taken prisoner, and the rest were all scattered. On the same day, Li Shimin ordered all 50,000 prisoners to be dismissed and let them return to their hometowns.

Li Shimin secretly sighed, what a brilliant victory this was, the enemy king was captured, and a country died in such a battle! But less than a tenth of the enemy was killed, not many innocent deaths, and not many of our troops were killed, which was the most ideal ending for the merciful commander.

Haha, how sharp my soldiers are, and my tactics are invincible in the world. Just after this day, China's reunification was a foregone conclusion! Who in the world can resist my soldiers? This day, Datang is the world's top and is a memorable day.

Staff officer Feng Deyi entered the military tent and congratulated Li Shimin. "It's a good thing I didn't listen to your advice at the beginning," Li Shimin joked, "to have today's victory." You are a wise man, and it is inevitable that you will make a mistake! ”

Feng Deyi's face turned red, and he stammered a little when he spoke. Seeing this, Li Shimin felt a little regretful, he shouldn't have teased his courtiers like this.
