"Let's wait a minute!" Li Shimin was still a little unwilling, so he abandoned the 30,000 soldiers in the city.

Yan Si was silent when he heard this, neither he nor Li Su thought that it was the sudden betrayal of the stubborn mind that would disrupt all the original plans around him, for the sake of today, the last way left was to let Li Shimin escape from Huaiyuan City, which was also the worst they expected, once the city was broken, they would escape in the hot air balloon brought by Yan Si, which was why Li Shimin dared to take this risk, because he had already had a way to save his life, and this was also impossible for Jieli to think of.

Outside the city, Jieli commanded the Turkic soldiers to launch wave after wave of attacks, at this time his face was full of victorious smiles, as long as Li Shimin died, the Tang Dynasty would be leaderless, in his opinion, the remaining little cubs could not be his opponents at all, "Those soldiers in silver armor are really too difficult, is there a better way for Xu Junshi?" ”

Although victory was only a matter of time, the soldiers in silver armor on the city walls were as invincible as killing gods, unless four or five Turkic soldiers rushed up together, they could not be restrained by swords, "If I guessed correctly, this is the armor produced in Yizhou, right?" Xu Junshi frowned, "Now there are only four or five soldiers fighting for one such method." ”

Jieli was a little disappointed, and then deeply worried, "These thousands of soldiers are so difficult, if we attack Yizhou in the future, what should we do in the face of such an army?" ”

"This is also what I'm worried about, this King of Shu should not be underestimated. Fortunately, Nanban entangled him, otherwise if he had sent troops to support, we might not have won so easily. ”。 At this time, the Turkic soldiers had already occupied most of the city, and they would soon break the city, Xu Junshi continued: "Khan, we ......"

Before he could finish his words, suddenly the distant sky roared with a dense screech after a rumbling sound. Then, the attacking Turkic soldiers were kicked up like dust and fell into flesh and blood. Hundreds of roaring explosions formed a blank area with a diameter of ten meters, and in an instant, everyone was stunned, even the soldiers on both sides who were fighting hand-to-hand in the city. They all stopped. Looking at this qiē in horror.

Jieli and Xu Junshi looked at this qiē in disbelief, how could they have seen such a terrifying scene, just in an instant, thousands of Turkic soldiers died, but this terrifying thing did not mean to stop, wave after wave of explosions fell into the dense attack phalanx of the Turks.

"It's a live target, and the artillerymen just like that." On the high ground three miles away from Huaiyuan City, Xue Rengui had already built an artillery position here. When they arrived, they took Lingzhou by the way, and it was only a little late to get here. Unexpectedly, Jieli was already storming Huaiyuan City, and from the mouth of the captive, he learned that Li Shimin was really trapped in that small city now, so he ordered the artillery to shell the Turks who gathered together like ducks, for him, this dense formation was definitely a feast for the artillerymen.

Standing beside him was Murong Shun, who got a letter from Li Su, he took 40,000 cavalry along the road to protect the Yizhou army, along the way he had been strange about the strange equipment of the Yizhou army, and only now did he understand the horror of this weapon, "General Xue Rengui, when will we attack?" ”

"Don't worry, let the artillerymen be happy for a while." Xue Rengui said, "When the attack will be made later, Murong Khan only needs to protect our two wings, and the matter in between will be handed over to us." ”

"Okay, General Xue!" Murong Shun said.

Li Shimin in the city was also stunned by the continuous roar, such a sound is too familiar, this is the sound of artillery, but their artillery has used up the shells, it may be them, then there is only one possibility.

"Your Majesty, we don't have to use hot air balloons, the reinforcements of His Royal Highness the King of Shu have arrived." A smile appeared at the corner of Yan Si's mouth, and only the artillery in Yizhou could make such a big move.

This is exactly what Li Shimin wanted to say, he stood up excitedly, walked back and forth excitedly, and then pulled out his waist knife and shouted: "Soldiers, the reinforcements of the King of Shu have arrived, now follow me to take back the city wall." ”

Cheng Huailiang has been responsible for Li Shimin's safety, and when he heard this, he also shouted: "Protect the emperor and recapture the city wall!" With that, he rushed towards the city with the remaining thousand guards, they were already desperate, and at this time, they saw the hope of victory again, and the name of the King of Shu was like a ray of sunshine illuminating the darkness in their hearts.

Li Shimin was wearing armor and also rushed out, he was not only the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but also a fierce general, and inspired by Li Shimin, the soldiers were even more red-eyed and fighting, and the Turkic soldiers at the head of the city continued to decrease, when Li Shimin climbed to the top of the city, there was no Turkic soldier on it, and those Turkic soldiers who were attacking the city also fled one after another, and had no intention of fighting again.

The sound of the huge explosion continued, and with each loud noise, Li Shimin could see dozens of Turkic soldiers die, and this scene made him extremely frightened.

"Look, that's the banner of the King of Shu!" Suddenly, a soldier pointed to the west, only to see the fleeing Turkic army, an army carrying the banner of the King of Shu was holding a stick-like thing against the Turkic soldiers who fled in a hurry, with the light of the fire, the Turkic soldiers kept falling, this qiē is Li Shimin is also inexplicable.

At the same time as the shelling, Xue Rengui had already completed the encirclement, his task was to level the steppe, and naturally wanted to deal with the Turks here once and for all.

At this time, the Turkic soldiers were scurrying around like headless flies, but the fear of the oncoming Yizhou soldiers was even greater than just now, their will finally collapsed, and they surrendered one after another, Jieli was still standing in a place, he couldn't believe the qiē in front of him, he was going to win, but why? It wasn't until one of their Yizhou soldiers knocked unconscious with the butt of a gun that he stopped asking himself like this. ”

The war has taken on a one-sided shape, Xue Rengui ordered the artillery to stop the shelling, the new type of war is that the commander does not have to charge, only needs to convey the order, and Murong Shun has already taken Tuyuhun's cavalry to cooperate with the Yizhou army to clean up the defeated Turkic soldiers, this time they do not plan to give the Turks any chance to turn over.

Standing at the head of the city, Li Shimin watched the deaths, wounds, and surrenders of the 200,000 Turks as if watching a play, and the desperate feelings just now dissipated like a dream memory, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart at this time, when did the war become so easy.

After nearly a day of fierce battles, most of the 30,000 soldiers in Huaiyuan City were killed and wounded, and now there are only four or five thousand people standing on the city wall, the hope of life comes, many soldiers are excited to tears, Li Shimin looked at the mountain of corpses piled up on the city wall, looking at these soldiers who were stained red with blood, his eyes were also slightly moist, in order to defend this city, they paid a heavy price, since ancient times, the war between the grassland and the Han people has never stopped, how many years will such a bloody war go through?

Yizhou's army marched very fast, there were basically no obstacles along the road, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the city of Huaiyuan, at this time Xue Rengui also arrived on horseback, looking at Li Shimin, who was guarded by the arch at the head of the city, Xue Rengui got off his horse and bowed and said: "Yizhou Army Xue Rengui escort is late, and I hope that the emperor will atone for his sins." ”

Li Shimin looked at Xue Rengui with satisfaction and said, "Excuse me, now that General Li Ji and General Cheng Yanjin are still fighting in the south, General Xue, please go and help them." Li Shimin said, at this time, he even had some fear of this army.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I'm going to send someone to help. After that, Xue Rengui said a word to a general beside him, and the general nodded and left, and after a while, a group of soldiers headed south.

The war in Huaiyuan City was over, Li Shimin came down from the city wall, and the gate of Huaiyuan City slowly opened.

"Majesty!" Li Shimin came out of the city, and Xue Rengui greeted him.

Li Shimin's eyes swept over the Yizhou soldier's body, pointed to the gun on the soldier's back and said, "What is this, why have I never heard of it?" (To be continued......)
