Chapter 6: The Prince? Qin Wang Da?
Martial arts four years, March.
Dou Jiande Xing's troops attacked the Tiger Pass, and Li Shimin left Li Yuanji, who had just returned, to besiege Luoyang, and he led the army straight to the Tiger Pass. Originally, everyone was fine, but who knew that Li Chengzong volunteered to follow Li Shimin.
Li Shimin said: "The battlefield is extremely dangerous, and it is safer for you to stay in the Luoyang army when you are still young."
Li Chengzong said: "If the second uncle thinks that I am afraid of death, now the little nephew will die to the second uncle."
Say it! He really wanted to raise his sword to kill himself, and the generals on the left and right hurriedly snatched the sword from his hand.
Li Shimin thought to himself, it's not that I'm going to kill you, it's you looking for your own death!
"The king of Taiyuan is brave and commendable, and I will definitely be my cousin emperor for this big victory, and I will pay tribute to you."
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, in his heart, he was sure that Li Chengzong must have been sent by Li Jiancheng to harm him.
In this battle of Tiger Pass, not only to defeat the menacing Dou Jiande, but also to beware of Li Chengzong. How did he not get angry.
Tiger Prison Pass.
It is connected to Songyue in the south, the Yellow River in the north, and the mountains are staggered, which is a natural danger.
There is a trend of "one husband is the pass, ten thousand people are not open", and it is a place for soldiers of all dynasties.
Li Chengzong has really heard the name Dou Jiande, but he doesn't know exactly what kind of goods Li Chengzong is.
Li Chengzong asked Xue Wanche: "Is Dou Jiande a victim?" What origin? How much land? How many centaurs?"
Xue Wanche said: "King Xia of Hebei, the lower official is only straightforward and benevolent and righteous, and he is a real man."
"A real man?" Of course, Li Chengzong couldn't understand it, and he didn't bother to think about who Dou Jiande was, so he fell asleep.
Under the Tiger Prison, Li Shimin personally commanded 500 cavalry to infiltrate the enemy camp to observe the terrain.
Xue Wanche reported the matter to Li Chengzong.
Li Chengzong suddenly woke up and was thrown off by Li Shimin.
"What about Cheng Yanjin, Qin Qiong, and Wei Chi Jingde? Have you seen that?" Li Chengzong hurriedly asked.
Xue Wanche said: "I have never seen these people in the team led by King Qin."
Li Chengzong said: "Good King Qin, fight quickly." You immediately mobilize my 2,000 men and horses, and say that the king of Qin is besieged by the enemy, and we will go to meet the king of Qin. ”
Xue Wanche said: "Yes."
Xue Wanche heard Li Chengzong ask Cheng Yanjin and the others, and immediately understood. Li Shimin put himself in danger, how could the people around him not follow, it was really unreasonable not to bring a general.
Hearing the sound of war drums, the hearts of the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Du tightened.
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "I don't know what the prince is going to do."
Li Chengzong, who was on the chariot, was furious when he heard this: "You bullshit strategists, let my second uncle risk his life to lure the enemy, and now my second uncle is trapped, I will go to save him."
"How does he know?" The three of them thought at the same time.
Fang Xuanling said: "King Qin set off for only an hour, maybe the enemy camp has not even arrived, how can the prince know that King Qin is besieged by enemy troops."
Li Chengzong was furious, drew his sword and pointed at Fang Xuanling and a few others, and shouted: "I am Li Chengzong, the king of Taiyuan County in the Tang Dynasty, my father and the king of Qin are close relatives. The generals will listen to the order and follow me to rescue the King of Qin, whoever stands in my way will assassinate the King of Qin and kill him with a knife. ”
In the feudal era, the ethics of Gangchang was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Li Chengzong's words, if anyone dares to come forward and talk to him, he will not be responsible for slashing him to death. The three of the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly avoided it, if Li Chengzong beheaded them now, King Qin would not be able to help them avenge.
What did King Qin do? The nephew wanted to come to save himself, but his subordinates didn't let him come, and then his subordinates were slaughtered by his nephew, and the king of Qin could only say when he saw him, slaughtered well.
Led by Xue Wanche, 2,000 cavalry went straight to the enemy camp.
Of course, Li Shimin is not under siege, now he is running for his life, and Dou Jiande behind him is chasing after him.
Suddenly, the sound of killing on both sides was loud, and Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong took the lead in killing.
In a short time, the crowd led by Dou Jiande showed signs of defeat.
At this moment, the yellow sand in front of me was rolling and dusty. As soon as Li Chengzong's 2,000 cavalry arrived, Dou Jiande's army was suddenly defeated.
Li Shimin never thought that this Li Chengzong would come again, he obviously told the eldest grandson Wuji to close the city gate and not allow people to enter or leave!
They were also heard shouting from afar: "The King of Qin has been arrested, and the King of Taiyuan County has an order to rescue the King of Qin with a reward of 10,000 taels and capture Dou Jiande alive with a reward of 10,000 taels."
Li Shimin's face was not good, he stood on a high place and looked at Li Chengzong who rushed into the enemy camp, if it weren't for dozens of people standing on both sides of him, Li Shimin really wanted to kill him with one arrow.
On the way here, Li Chengzong said to Xue Wanche: "You lead a thousand people to kill it, I don't care what happens to King Qin, I want you to find Dou Jiande, it is best to capture him alive, if you can't capture him alive, then kill him and bring him back, don't let King Qin's people catch him first."
Xu Shiji was also rushing to kill, and when he saw Xue Wanche chasing forward regardless of it, he knew that he was coming for Dou Jiande. immediately patted the horse to follow, thinking that he would never let the prince's people make such a great achievement.
Li Shimin came from afar, and Li Chengzong shouted: "Second uncle, you are okay, my nephew has come to save you."
Li Shimin's face was not good, and he also saw Xue Wanche's actions in his eyes and knew Li Chengzong's thoughts.
"How do you know that I'm going to ambush Dou Jiande here?" Li Shimin asked coldly.
Li Chengzong's back was sweating, and Taizong's momentum was really extraordinary. What do you say? Could it be that I know that you are invincible, I don't know that you are ambushing Dou Jiande here, I just want to follow you to mix up some credit, so as to strengthen my own power, and then kill you before the Xuanwumen incident?
Li Chengzong said: "The little nephew really doesn't know that the second uncle was ambushing Dou Jiande here. When I got up today, I heard that the second uncle only led a few hundred people to the enemy camp, and I was afraid that something would happen to the second uncle, so I immediately led my troops to come. ”
Li Shimin said: "I am not the one who ordered the city guards, and the city gate is not allowed to be opened without my order, how did you get out?"
"Nope! When I came out, no one stopped me from opening the door!" Li Chengzong said very innocently.
If the eldest grandson Wuji is here, he has to vomit three liters of blood. Who the fuck are you going to kill whom, how can I tell you.
What is the eldest grandson Wuji doing, Li Shimin couldn't help scolding.
A few hours later, Xu Shiji and Xue Wanche returned.
Li Shimin and Li Chengzong were very worried that the other party would catch Dou Jiande.
Xue Wanche said: "The lower officials are incompetent, please punish the prince."
Li Shi** is so angry! I didn't snatch anyone like that. Li Chengzong couldn't help but say in his heart.
"It's okay, it's just a Dou Jiande, and it's a serious matter to go back to Luoyang and fight Luoyang." Li Chengzong said.
Li Shimin said: "Although Dou Jiande is dead, the army of more than 100,000 is still there, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to return to Luoyang."
Li Chengzong thought to himself, Dou Jiande has been arrested, and I won't accompany you to catch some fish, shrimp and crabs! I'd better hurry back to Luoyang, if I take Luoyang single-handedly, I'll be angry with you.
"The second uncle is brave, Dou Jiande is arrested, and the rest of the people are not to be afraid, and I don't have to worry about the safety of the second uncle anymore. The third uncle is still fighting hard under Luoyang City, I'd better go and help the third uncle!"
Li Shimin thought about it, it's a good thing that he left! Why are you holding back? Immediately readily agreed.
At night.
The eldest grandson Wuji told everything that happened today, and Li Shimin praised: "Okay! I didn't expect the eldest brother to give birth to such a good son, and use family affection and righteousness to suppress you. I don't blame you for today's events, if you really stop him, you just lost your life in vain. ”
Du Ruhui said: "Today's scene, not only the soldiers around the king of Taiyuan look at us angrily, but even the soldiers who get along with us day and night. The king of Taiyuan County forced us into death with a few words, and made me feel ashamed of myself. ”
Li Shimin said: "Check out who is around Li Chengzong, I don't believe that an eleven-year-old child would have such a scheming."
"Yes," said the eldest grandson, Wuji, who stood up.
The other side.
Although Xue Wanche didn't catch Dou Jiande, his generals Yin Qiu and Shi Zan were arrested by him.
Li Chengzong said: "I sincerely invite you two to join our army, why do you two not give face to this king so much."
Yin Qiu said: "The two of us thank the prince for his appreciation, but King Xia is as kind to us as a mountain, and it is impossible for us to betray King Xia."
Li Chengzong said: "You can't say that, Dou Jiande is kind to you, you don't have to repay you with death." Let me tell you this, Dou Jiande is dead, but doesn't Dou Jiande still have a family? If all of you who swore to follow him died, who would take care of his family, and if Mrs. Dou was bullied in the future, if Gongzi Dou was bullied, what would be good?" Let me ask you two, if this is really the case, does Dou Jiande want to thank you, or will he kill you again?"
Not to mention Yin Qiu and Shi Zhan, even Xue Wanche on the side was stunned when he heard it, is this okay?
Li Chengzong then said: "Think about it! I'm going to meet you, King Xia. ”
Cell.
Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong are both there, and if they are serious offenders, they are afraid of being rescued.
Cheng Biting Jin said: "No one is allowed to enter without the order of King Qin."
Li Chengzong said: "Nonsense, my father ordered me to ask Dou Jiande a few questions. Let me ask you, is my second uncle higher than my father? Still powerful?"
Cheng Biting Jin was about to say something, but Qin Qiong immediately covered his broken mouth.
Qin Qiong said: "Can the prince wait a moment, let me inform the king of Qin later."
"No, if you don't let me in again, I'll tell my father about it. It turned out that his father was a dignified prince of the Tang Dynasty, and his status and rights were not as great as that of King Gao Qin and King Qin. ”
Qin Qiong's head was full of dense beads of sweat, and he didn't dare to disobey King Qin's military orders, but if Li Chengzong really repaired a book, I am afraid that King Qin would have a big disaster.
Qin Qiong struggled and said, "The king of Taiyuan County, please come in."
Li Chengzong said: "I am enough for one person, you wait outside."
