Li Shimin followed behind, picked up his bow and arrows, and the arrows in his hands continued to shoot out one after another, and the enemy's soldiers all fell off their horses without a sound. There is Cheng Zhijie rushing to kill in front, and Li Shimin shooting in the back; In the chaos of Zheng Jun being killed, they fled to the slopes of the mountains one after another, jumping down like a ravine.

Cheng Zhijie and Li Shimin soon broke out of the siege and were about to flee. Suddenly, Li Shimin sent his guards, Lu Chong and the others were surrounded, so they reflexively killed them again.

I could only hear the sound of the bowstring ringing incessantly, and the enemy clutched his throat to the end; The besieged guards hurriedly rushed out of the encirclement.

Li Shimin coldly glanced around, and saw that one of the enemy generals in the enemy group was wielding a long sword and commanding, so he rushed towards the enemy general with a loud shout, and shot a flying arrow at the enemy general halfway; The enemy general caught a glimpse of it, and fell down in panic, his body swaying and nearly falling off his horse, and the arrow pierced the mouth of one of the soldiers behind him, spurting out a string of blood and white teeth. The enemy general was frightened and half a cut shorter, turned and ran.

But before he could stand firm from his horse, Cheng Zhijie had already rushed up with a loud shout; The surrounding Zheng Jun couldn't cause him a little hindrance; Those who were killed by his big axe scattered and fled.

Cheng Zhijie quickly killed Yan Xin's voice, and the big axe in his hand slashed at the head in one fell swoop. Yan Xin was so frightened that she fell off the horse. Unexpectedly, this time saved his life, this axe split his war horse into two pieces, and the blood poured Yan Xin into a bloody man.

Yan Xinga snorted, fell to the ground softly, and Cheng Zhijie was about to take his life; Li Shimin shouted in the back: "Fifth brother leave him alive, let's ask Zheng Jun about the situation." ”

Only then did Cheng Zhijie put away the axe, took Yan Xin in his hand with a short body, and put it on the horse's back; Then he broke out of the siege and joined Li Shimin.

After this battle, the Zheng army had been dashed to pieces, and the Tang army's light cavalry regrouped. After Li Shimin ordered more than a dozen light horsemen to break off, he and Cheng Zhijie galloped back with the captives in front. In the evening, they returned to the Xin'an barracks.

When he came to the military tent, Li Shimin ordered someone to press Yan Xin up. At this time, Yan Xin was already sober, and as soon as he entered the big tent, he saw the general next to him who was full of swords and glaring angrily, so frightened that his legs were weak, and he knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Li Shimin laughed, got up and helped Yan Xin up, so that he could comfort her; Then ask him about Zheng Jun's situation. Yan Xin had already been frightened and didn't dare to hide it, and told everything she knew.

Li Shimin ordered someone to take Yan Xin out, staring at the map and thinking silently, with a glint in his eyes from time to time.

The crowd waited silently; Suddenly, Li Shimin looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Wang Shichong is short-sighted, and he actually left such a big flaw for me; I'm going to break him without much effort. Let's take a look, how do we break the enemy? ”

Everyone was stunned and stepped forward to stare at the map; Yin Kaishan said: "I think Luoyang is the land of four wars. As long as we clean up his surrounding strongholds, we can surround him and capture Luoyang one day. ”

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Although what Yin Shangshu said is not true, there is some truth in it; But it's not Wang Shichong's fatal mistake, who else can talk about it? ”

Duan Zhixuan said: "Wang Shichong is wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, and he is suspicious of employing people, and many of his subordinates can't do their best. We occupy the advantages of people and places; It can definitely be broken in one fell swoop. ”

Li Shimin nodded and smiled: "This is also one of the conditions, but it is not the most fatal." Who else thinks what? ”

"Let me tell you about it! If you say something wrong, please ask King Qin for more advice. Xu Shiji said with a smile.

He saw Li Shimin nodding before he stood up, and opened his mouth unhurriedly: "In the past two years, everyone has been recuperating and hoarding grain and grass. Wang Shichong could have sent more than 100,000 horses to carry the grain back to Luocang and Luokoucang to the eastern capital, and store as much as possible, at least storing the grain that could not be eaten for a few years, so that he could live in the eastern capital in peace, sit and watch the people of the world fight each other, and wait for the opportunity to move.

But his wisdom did not recognize this, and he wasted a God-given opportunity; I thought it was the worst mistake he ever made. I guess he found that he had no food after being besieged, so he had to cut it with a sword! ”

"Smack, smack!" Li Shimin applauded to express his appreciation, and everyone applauded with "papa, pap, papa, pap". Xu Shiji thanked him and sat down slowly.

"Reasonable, reasonable!"

"Of course, General Xu was stationed in Liyang Cang before, and of course he knows the importance of food."

Cheng Zhijie said with a smile: "I estimate that Wang Shichong is not only slashing with a sword, but he will definitely regret hitting the wall!" The crowd burst into laughter again.

Li Shimin saw that everyone was almost laughing, so he stood up and ordered: "Give me an order to Huang Junhan and Wang Junke, and order them to take Luokou for me before the enemy reacts no matter what!" Not a single grain of grain in Luokou's warehouse is allowed to be moved back to Luoyang! ”

The herald said yes loudly and turned to go out. Li Shimin glanced around at everyone and said: "Today's great joy should be celebrated with everyone. However, I ordered that alcohol should not be banned in the army, and that it should not be sabotage. Everyone should take the lead, let's go to Luoyang to drink! The crowd cheered in unison.

Li Shimin ended the meeting, and then asked everyone to prepare, and quietly pulled out the camp that night and headed for Cijian.

Li Shimin's sudden arrival caught Wang Shichong off guard; However, Wang Shichong is also a veteran of the battlefield, and when Li Shimin first arrived and had not yet gained a firm foothold, he led the army to suddenly attack Li Shimin.

Although Li Shimin expected Wang Shichong's reaction; However, they didn't expect Wang Shichong to be so desperate; The two armies fought a great battle at Cijian.

Li Shimin personally commanded in front of the battle, and Cheng Zhijie, Li Yuanba, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Yin Kaishan and other fierce generals went into battle; Gallop through the enemy's ranks.

Zheng Jun is also a fierce general, like Prince Aoyu, Tieguan Daoren, and Shan Xiongxin and others who surrendered are full of martial arts; In addition, Jianghuai's strong pawns are not inferior to the Tang Army.

The two sides fought from morning to evening, and Zheng Jun couldn't resist; Wang Shichong had no choice but to order the army to retreat slowly.

Li Shimin saw that the enemy army was fierce and could not win in a battle, so he also gathered his army and retreated to the camp. Li Yuanba rushed forward and asked, "Second brother, why don't you let me rush again, we will definitely be able to win." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "You don't have to think about defeating the enemy all at once. We just need to drag Wang Shichong here; Giving Huang Junhan and Wang Junke the opportunity to attack Luokou is victory. ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded secretly; Make up your mind that you must be at a high and low level with Wang Shichong tomorrow.

How do you know that Wang Shichong's years of experience in fighting have told him that the small county town of Cijian will definitely not be able to hold it; Therefore, Wang Shichong, a ruthless man, regarded all the miscellaneous troops as pawns in the loss of pawns; He led the remaining generals and Jianghuai soldiers to run back to the Eastern Capital overnight.

The next day, Li Shimin was leading his troops to fight, but Zheng's army actually stuck to Cijian and refused to fight. Li Shimin had some suspicions and asked Liu Hongji and Yin Kaishan to lead troops to attack Cijian. Although the first attack was repulsed, it was found that the strength of the Zheng army was greatly reduced, and they almost broke through the city.

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Fifth brother, Zheng Jun is a little wrong, I wonder if Wang Shichong ran away." ”

Cheng Zhizhi nodded and said, "I thought of going with King Qin." This Wang Shichong is eighty percent gone. I'll lead the team to try it. ”

"Good! Yuanba, you come to help the fifth brother, let's use the strongest force to impact it, and strive to take Cijian at once. ”

Li Yuanba had already suffocated, and he screamed and killed Cijian with Cheng Zhijie. With the help of strong bows and crossbows, these two big insects took the lead in killing Cijian.

The two of them stood firmly at the head of the city as if they were competing, and killed the Zheng army in a crush. The coalition forces took the opportunity to rush up and soon occupied Cijian.

"Wang Shichong is a rabbit and ran away so fast!" Cheng Zhijie spat and scolded.

Li Shimin said: "Fifth brother don't worry, the monk can't run the temple if he runs away; Let's go to Luoyang to find him. Now it depends on whether Huang Junhan and Wang Junke can occupy Luokou one step ahead of the enemy. ”

Huang Junhan and Wang Junke are both generals of Wagang; It's just that Wang Junke surrendered to the Great Demon Kingdom in Dingtao, and Huang Junhan was stationed in Wagang at that time, and surrendered to Li Shimin with Xu Shiji.

The two led an army of 10,000 over the Beibi Mountains and suddenly appeared in Heyang; Heyang County Shouluo Hai was unprepared, and was beheaded by Wang Junke's strong attack on the city tower; The Tang army successfully occupied Heyang.

Huang Junhan and Wang Junke had just occupied Heyang, and before they had time to breathe a sigh of relief, Li Shimin's order arrived; Ask them to fly to capture Luokou and forcibly occupy Luokou.

After receiving the order, the two discussed and decided to divide the troops. Wang Jun can lead 5,000 troops to attack Yuyuan County. This Yuyuan County is close to Yanshi, which is an important place for soldiers to fight for and control in the past dynasties, and it is also a shortcut to Luo, Yan and Ru, Ying and Xiang.

As long as Wang Shichong takes Yuyuan County, he will definitely send someone to come to the rescue, and the nearest force is the garrison of Luokou Wei Yin; As long as Wei Yin moves, Huang Junhan can forcibly occupy Luokou.

The two discussed and decided that Wang Jun could not take care of rest, and led the army straight to Yuyuan County. The defender of Yuyuan County is Wang Shichong's confidant and general Ba Yegang.

This person has the courage of ten thousand people with a big knife; I heard that Wang Junke has arrived. He will be the most glamorous: "The five tigers of Wagang will be in vain. The first list of the five tiger generals has been hiding and not daring to confront me; Watch me finish second today, let them know how good I am! ”

As soon as Baye heard that Wang Junke had arrived, he urged the horse to come out to meet him. Wang Junke's army lined up to open the flag gate, and the archers held down the formation; Seeing the enemy come out to meet him; Wang Jun laughed and urged the red rabbit horse that was sitting down to come to the front enemy.

As soon as Baye Gang urged him to sit down on the black horse, he quickly came to Wang Junke, and pointed at the sawtooth flying sickle in his hand and shouted: "Is Wang Xuan Wang Junke on the other side?" ”
