In the sixth year of the Great Cause, Pei Ju used a peach bamboo arrow and a promise to marry a princess to provoke a Western Turkic civil war. Although Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty treated these remnants of the Western Turks well, and they were raised with good food and drink and given official positions, the seeds of hatred had been planted, and after Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, Ashina Danai, who was annoyed at the time, surrendered to Li Yuan without hesitation, and followed Li Yuan to create the rebellion of Emperor Yang of Sui and the life of Emperor Yang of Sui.

With the urging of hatred, Ashina Danai is a fierce general on the battlefield is naturally very good, only in the battle of Pujin Pass, Ashina Danai personally killed more than 30 Sui soldiers, for Li Yuan's rebels to defeat and win a great contribution, from Taiyuan all the way to Tongguan, hundreds of Sui soldiers died in his hands, definitely a foreign butcher with Han blood on his hands, but also a brave general in Li Yuan's rebel army.

Encountering such a fierce general, Chen Fuliang's old department of the county Li Yi and Zhang Di were a little overwhelmed, although the old with the new Sui army soldiers one after another, constantly rushed to the tall Ashina Danai, stabbed the chest and abdomen knife and cut the horse's legs, but still could not resist the attack of Ashina Danai like a fierce tiger, one after another scattered under his butcher's knife, Zhang Di stepped forward to fight with it, only one round, the ring knife in his hand was Ashina Danai's thick-backed machete split, the tiger's mouth also bled on the spot, and could only be forced to ride a horse to escape, Ashina · Danai led the rebels to chase and kill the victorious, and killed the Sui soldiers who were intercepted in front of the south gate of Cangcheng to retreat, and gradually showed signs of rout.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the main force of the Sui army led by Chen Fuliang personally arrived, observed the battlefield and found that the situation at the main gate of Cangcheng was wrong, and saw that Ashina Danai was unstoppable on the battlefield, killing many Sui soldiers in a row, Chen Fuliang couldn't help but be angry, and while ordering the army to set up a formation, he pointed at Ashina Danai with a horsewhip and shouted: "Who took off the head of this thief for me?" ”

There were also a few fierce men under Chen Fuliang, and before the words fell, Yu Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong had already slapped their horses out of battle, and each of them rushed straight to Ashina Danai, and Ashina Danai saw them rushing in Mingguang armor out of the corner of his eye, and he was not surprised or happy. first slashed the shoulders of the Sui soldiers in front of him, and then slapped his horse and rushed over, shouting in his mouth, "Dog barbarian, take your life!" ”

Ashina Danai kicked the iron plate this time, the left and right door gods both sneered, and roared in unison, both of them stabbed Ashina Danai's chest, the horse lance broke the wind, both were as fast as lightning, as fast as thunder, and the speed and strength were still the same, Ashina Danai knew that he was too strong to parry, and quickly lay down on his back on the horse, dodging the two coming lances between the electric light and flint, and the three horses staggered, and the left and right door gods slashed out at the same time, and swept down the rebel soldiers who followed Ashina Danai to pick up the cheap, and took advantage of the situation to pull the horse and turn around, and killed Ashina Danai.

At this moment, Ashina Danai didn't even turn the horse's head, and saw the skillful equestrianism of the left and right door gods sideways, Ashina Danai immediately understood that he had encountered a strong enemy that he had never encountered in his life, and secretly regretted that he underestimated the enemy's carelessness, Ashina Danai accepted defeat, and quickly changed into a horse lance while holding the horse, and suddenly turned around with a horse, and stabbed Qin Qiong's chest with a horse pistol, and yelled in his mouth, "Die!" ”

If someone else is changed, it may have already been on the way, but unfortunately Ashina Danai met Qin Qiong, the god of the right door this time, seeing the arrival of the lance, Qin Qiong only immediately dodged sideways, the horse lance in his hand still probed forward, and poked directly at the buttocks of Ashina Danai's mount, and at the same time, Yu Chi Jingde's horse lance had also been stabbed, Ashina Danai hurriedly dodged, and was still poked in the right shoulder by a lance, the people and horses screamed together, the war horse was in pain and galloped wildly, Ashina Danai did not dare to rein in the horse in order to survive, and just fled forward with the horse on the back of the horse, Wei Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong were chasing after them, and you were fighting for me and yelling, "Mine! Don't rob me! ”

Roaring, Yu Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong gradually caught up with Ashina Danai, Ashina Danai had already stabbed the saddle horse lance and was difficult to stab, Yu Chi Jingde could only reach out his arm to grab Ashina Danai's left hand, but Ashina Danai's riding skills were also quite successful, and he actually pressed the saddle with his left hand and lifted his left leg, and kicked Yu Chi Jingde's face with his flying legs.

Ashina Danai found the wrong opponent, what Wei Chi Jingde is best at is to immediately grab the enemy's weapon and poke the enemy, can you still be afraid of his legs? In a hurry with his right hand, Yu Chi Jingde had already grabbed Ashina Danai's left calf, and Qin Qiong over there also suddenly grabbed Ashina Danai's injured right arm, and shouted together: "Mine! ”

"Mother!" The pain of tearing was coming, Ashina Danai was stunned to find himself soaring into the air, and was pulled off the horse's back by Yu Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong, his left foot and right shoulder jumped together, almost tearing, Ashina Danai, who was so frightened that he didn't dare to think about any hatred, and subconsciously just shouted, "Uncle Zhongyuan, I surrender!" Spare your life! ”

In a hurry, Ashina Danai used Turkic language, Qin Qiong didn't understand it, of course he wouldn't let go, Yu Chi Jingde understood but because Ashina Danai was begging Qin Qiong for mercy, he also ignored it, the two generals just struggled to pull in order to fight for merit, plus the galloping power of the war horse, the skin and bones were cracked, and there was a bang, Ashina Danai was torn in two alive, and the dirty and foul-smelling internal organs were scattered all over the ground, and the stronger Yu Chi Jingde grabbed most of Ashina Danai's body, although Qin Qiong grabbed it less, But he snatched the head of the right shoulder strap.

Seeing such a tragic scene, Chen Fuliang, who had lost his conscience, was of course so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and immediately ordered to reward the second general, and the soldiers of the Sui army were also cheering like thunder, and their morale was greatly boosted, but the rebels were in an uproar, and the rebel generals such as Li Jiancheng and Wang Changhuan, who were watching the battle on Cangcheng, stood even more stunned on the spot, never dreaming that Ashina Danai would end up in such a fate.

After praising Chi Jingde and Qin Qiong, Chen Fuliang immediately ordered to strengthen the attack, sent the army to storm the main gate of Yongfeng Cang, and strived to take the opportunity to kill in the warehouse, the rebels whose morale was frustrated turned from prosperity to decline, and began to retreat again, and then Chen Fuliang ordered the siege weapons that arrived in the follow-up to dispatch, and continued to attack the south gate wall of Yongfeng Cang head-on.

The sun has already risen, arrows and flying stones come and go in the sunlight endlessly, the soldiers of the Sui army with the trench and bridge car as the vanguard lined up in a neat horizontal line, shouting and striding towards the enemy city, the rebel soldiers desperately let out arrows to block, the soldiers of the Sui army under the city wall struggled to dig the wall, the soldiers of the two armies at the cangmen sword shadow and sword, fighting inextricably, and in the southwest corner of the cangcheng, Ma Sanbao, Niu Jinda Second Army and Li Xiuning's rebel team was also in full swing, and the fierce shouting and killing sound went straight to the sky, and the sound spread for ten miles.

The strong and brave Sui army gradually gained the upper hand in the field battle, the rebels at the main gate were defeated and retreated, the most advanced Sui soldiers had already stepped on the suspension bridge, the south gate of Cangcheng was forced to prepare to close the door, although Sun Huajun did not fall behind in the fierce battle with Liu Heimin, but also afraid of being blocked outside the door, forced to begin to retreat to the door, the Sui army soldiers chased and beat fiercely, couldn't wait to cut the suspension bridge rope, and the blade pointed directly at the half-open south gate of Cangcheng.

Several gunpowder bottles were suddenly thrown into the crowd of the Sui army, and there was a loud noise between the explosions, and the soldiers of the Sui army were shaken out of chaos by the shock wave, and the rebel soldiers took the opportunity to flock back to the city, and the warehouse gate was also closed, and the Sui army rushed to close tightly before the approach, and also blocked more than a dozen rebel soldiers outside the city, the soldiers of the Sui army were furious, and desperately stepped forward to attack, and countless arrows and falling stones had already flown down on the city, and at the same time they threw down the ropes and dragged the rebel soldiers to the city, and the dream of the Sui soldiers to rush into the city was also frustrated.

Seeing this scene, although Chen Fuliang was disappointed, he did not regret it too much, but turned his gaze to Li Jiancheng's handsome banner, and said secretly in his heart: "Brother Jiancheng, you really have a hand, you are a general, but unfortunately, you can't become my assistant." ”

"Brother Xian, you are really powerful, but I will not admit defeat." Li Jiancheng was also looking at Chen Fuliang's handsome banner, and said secretly in his heart: "I still have hope, for the sake of the Li family, I must fight with you to the end!" ”

At this time, the mutation regenerated, twenty or thirty rebel soldiers suddenly jumped down from the city wall, put the grass regiment drenched with tung oil sulfur in their hands into the hole in the wall dug by the Sui soldiers, and threw in two gunpowder bottles, the grass mass burned violently between the loud noises, and the Sui soldiers who were digging the wall in the narrow space cried wolf, either dead or wounded, and at the same time, the dozen or so rebel soldiers with ropes tied around their waists flew onto the city with the help of their companions, and the Sui soldiers quickly shot with arrows, but still let more than half of the rebel soldiers successfully escape back to the city wall.

Zhang Jixun, who was responsible for providing bow and arrow cover, also ordered the archers to concentrate their arrows and cover the top of the wall to prevent the rebels from repeating their old tricks, but in any case, the Sui army's speed of digging the city was greatly affected, and the progress slowed down sharply.

"Damn, you're pretty good at taking advantage of gunpowder." Chen Fuliang cursed a swear word, pointed at the battlefield where Li Xiuning's army was located with a horsewhip, and shouted: "Luo Shixin, go!" Do your best to end the war there! ”

In response to the sound, Luo Shixin led the headquarters to rush forward, from the side to join the melee battlefield, the little monster Luo Shixin once again took the lead, in the enemy group spear poke handle smashing, unstoppable, suffered Luo Shixin's big loss Li Xiuning's army was cowardly before the battle, and soon fell into the downwind, Li Xiuning desperately restrained the army, forced to flee the way it came, and wanted to escape back to Cangcheng, Niu Jinda detected Li Xiuning's army's attempt, took advantage of the opportunity of a better position, rushed to the front of the drawbridge to intercept, and refused to give Li Xiuning's army a chance to escape.

The melee outside the warehouse was even more brutal and intense, the rebels who were eager to flee for their lives desperately rushed back, and the Niu Jinda army in front of the road had no danger to defend, and there was a threat of rebel bows and crossbows behind them, and they completely relied on flesh and blood to resist the advance of the rebels, and the fight was extremely difficult. Ma Sanbao and Luo Shixin also continued to attack Li Xiuning's army, but they were never able to disperse the rebels, and finally Luo Shixin was in a hurry, so he simply gave up his horse and fought on foot, replaced with a double knife and rushed into the enemy group, and frantically slashed and killed the military flag that went straight to Li Xiuning.

In the melee, Luo Shixin once again bumped into his old opponent Qiu Xinggong, Qiu Xinggong, who knew that Luo Shixin was powerful, knew that he was invincible, but he still gave up his life to intercept it, and fought with Luo Shixin for several rounds, until he was cut by Luo Shixin before he fled, but it also bought some time for the rebel soldiers, so that more rebel soldiers were stuck around Li Xiuning's banner, Luo Shixin failed to kill several times, but was left with several wounds of different depths on the body by the rebel soldiers' knives and guns, and he was so anxious that he screamed, but he was helpless.

At the critical moment, several gunpowder bottles suddenly flew out behind Luo Shixin, fell into the dense area of the rebels and exploded, Luo Shixin was first overjoyed, and then scolded himself for being confused, forgetting that Chen Fuliang had equipped the self-army with gunpowder bottles used to disrupt the enemy, and quickly shouted and ordered the self-army soldiers to throw out the gunpowder bottles, and he strode forward against the impact of the explosion and the enemy's swords and guns, slashing and killing all the way to continue to take Li Xiuning.

The rebel soldiers who were disturbed by the gunpowder explosion finally couldn't stop the little monster's advance, and Luo Shixin, who had cut out a gap with both knives, finally killed Li Xiuning's near place, seeing Luo Shixin, who was covered in blood, rushed like a mad tiger, Li Xiuning, who had always been calm, finally panicked, and subconsciously pulled out his horse and ran north, and the rebel soldiers who couldn't break through Niu Jinda to block the attack panicked to keep up, and the dense formation of the rebel team was finally chaotic, and the soldiers of the Sui army took advantage of the situation to pursue, holding on to Li Xiuning's defeated soldiers, and the slogan of capturing Li Niangzi alive came and went, Many officers and men of the Sui army with good character also shouted the slogan of capturing Li Niangzi alive.

At the same time, after seeing Li Xiuning's defeat to the north, the rebel generals on the city wall all panicked and shouted to Li Jiancheng: "Zuo Dudu, it's not good, Li Niangzi made a mistake in her busy schedule and fled to Weishui!" It's a dead end! ”

Li Jiancheng's face was pale, and he didn't dare to look at Li Xiuning's situation at all, and only said with a gloomy face after a while: "I hope she won't think about finding a short-term view, even if she is captured, with the temper of a virtuous brother, she will not do anything to her." ”

Brother Mo Ruo, who knows his sister, at this time, Li Xiuning finally found out that he had made the biggest mistake in his life - he fled to the shore of the surging water in a panic! But it was too late to turn back, the soldiers of the Sui army had already surged like a tide, blocking her other escape paths, the rebel soldiers who knew the water jumped off the Weishui to flee for their lives, the rebel soldiers who could not water could only cry and put down their weapons and kneel to surrender, only a few vicious rebel soldiers resisted stubbornly, and some of the rebels fled directly to the west, not daring to turn back.

Li Xiuning didn't know how to water, and of course he wouldn't surrender, and when he heard the slogan shouted by the soldiers of the Sui army to grab Li Niangzi's wheel camp, Li Xiuning was completely desperate, and could only cry in the direction of Daxing to the west: "Father, my daughter has taken a step first!" ”

shouted, Li Xiuning jumped into the surging water......

It's a pity that Li Xiuning committed suicide and failed to die, after drinking a belly of muddy river water, she was dragged ashore by two Sui soldiers who jumped into the water to chase and kill, and the angry Sui soldiers were about to strip her naked and insult her on the spot, but fortunately Ma Sanbao was in the army, and drank everyone in time, and ordered her to be escorted to Chen Fuliang and handed over to Chen Fuliang for disposal.

When Li Xiuning was escorted to Chen Fuliang, of course, he looked like a wolf, his whole body was wet, his clothes were tattered, his hair was scattered, his once charming face was blue and purple, and he was full of mud and dirty water, so weak that he couldn't even stand steadily. Seeing the appearance of Li Xiuning, who almost became his sister-in-law, Chen Fuliang was of course full of emotion, and said with a wry smile: "Sister-in-law, I really didn't expect that we would meet again in such an environment, are you okay?" ”

Desperately glancing at Chen Fuliang, who was forced by the white-robed and silver-armored pretend, Li Xiuning said in a hoarse voice: "The surname is Chen, if you are still a man, you will kill me with one sword!" Give me a good time! ”

"Why am I killing you? Your use value is still very large, and you can't kill it yet. Chen Fuliang replied calmly, and said: "But don't worry, no matter what, you are also a famous family, and you almost became my sister-in-law, I will not let you be humiliated, so stay in the prisoner of war camp with peace of mind." ”

After that, Chen Fuliang just wanted to order Li Xiuning to be escorted away, but there was a sudden sound of cheers on the side of the Cangcheng in front of him, Chen Fuliang and the Sui army generals hurriedly looked up, but saw that the wall of Yongfengcang first shook and cracked, and then soon made a loud noise, and finally fell to the ground under the hard work of the Sui soldiers at any cost.

Seeing this scene, Li Jiancheng's face was of course as pale as paper, and he had to hang his head and give the order to abandon the warehouse and flee for his life, so that the army could flee out of the city. Chen Fuliang breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "I finally took it down, but unfortunately, the price paid was too great." ”

There has been a huge gap in the city wall that cannot be filled, and it is pointless to hold on, taking advantage of the fact that there is still a fighting army in hand, Li Jiancheng, Wang Changhuan and Sun Hua and others hurriedly opened the northwest two gates, and fled with the army in the direction of Daxing in the west. At the same time, the reinforcements sent by Dou Cong from Pujin Pass finally arrived on the north bank of Weishui, but unfortunately it was too late, and there were no bridges and ferries to cross the river, so they could only hurry west to Xingde Palace, which had a bridge.

The defeated rebels who were hit by the cavalry of the Sui army were of course defeated again, but the overly open terrain gave the rebel generals and soldiers a lot of opportunities to escape, the soldiers who knew how to swim down the river to escape, and those who could not swim in the water fled in all directions, and fled to the mountains and forests where the cavalry was difficult to move.

Li Jiancheng's escape was expected by Chen Fuliang, in fact, Chen Fuliang deliberately let Li Jiancheng live - when he escaped, the general must have fled on horseback, and the speed could be very fast, Chen Fuliang ordered the cavalry to stop and attack Li Jiancheng's defeated army, in fact, it was to give Li Jiancheng a chance to escape. So after receiving the news that Li Jiancheng had escaped Weishui, Chen Fuliang not only was not the slightest surprised, but also looked to the north, and secretly said in his heart: "Brother Jiancheng, go." Let you go this time because I am not qualified to pardon you, and the next time I can make my own decisions, you don't want to run. ”

Muttering, Chen Fuliang ordered the retreat of the pursuers, but as soon as the order was sent, Fang Xuanling, who stayed in the camp, came to Chen Fuliang on horseback, and directly attached it to Chen Fuliang's ear, and said in a low voice: "Brother Xian, the big thing is not good, I just received the news that on the night of the 28th, the main force of the rebels has broken through Daxing Palace!" ”

Chen Fuliang's body was shocked, and he hurriedly asked in a low voice, "What about His Royal Highness the Acting King?" ”

"I only heard that he escaped from the city disguised as an inner servant, and there is no further news yet!" Fang Xuanling replied in a low voice.

Chen Fuliang was not shocked this time, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said secretly: "The Yin World Master really listened to my Jianyi, it's good to escape, it's better to die, it's okay not to die, the frame frame of the Daxing Imperial Court has been smashed by Li Yuan's old thief, and if I take Daxing back, I can rest assured that I can use my paintbrush on the white paper in Guanzhong." He also ordered the Baoguo Army and Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and other cavalry teams to advance westward and attack the defeated soldiers of the rebels. At the same time, the reinforcements sent by Dou Cong from Pujin Pass finally arrived on the north bank of Weishui, but unfortunately it was too late, and there were no bridges and ferries to cross the river, so they could only hurry west to Xingde Palace, which had a bridge.

The defeated rebels who were hit by the cavalry of the Sui army were of course defeated again, but the overly open terrain gave the rebel generals and soldiers a lot of opportunities to escape, the soldiers who knew how to swim down the river to escape, and those who could not swim in the water fled in all directions, and fled to the mountains and forests where the cavalry was difficult to move.
