Chapter 285: First Encounter with Li Shimin

Ye Lingfeng saw it thoroughly, but Yuwen Valve's ship was obviously very unfamiliar with Li Valve's method of naval warfare, and the general of the ship still advanced bravely even though he knew that the hull of the ship was broken and there were still many traps ahead, and the reality staged a big drama of torrent bravery.

On the calm surface of the river, there were also circles of abnormal ripples and waves at this time, surging back and forth, not only the ships of the Yuwen valve were unstable, but even the ships of the Sui army and sailors were shaking abnormally.

Tiger Leaping Gorge is a very important joint point in the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty, at this time, I don't know what trap Li Valve has opened, the water level of the canal of Tiger Leaping Gorge has dropped sharply, and then from the western river, a white line has come to me, which is a huge tide formed in the flood!

At this time, the Sui Dynasty Grand Canal was built and navigable for more than ten years, and the solid embankment that had just been built on both sides of the river bank was paved with large blue strip stones, reinforced with mixed soil slurry, which could resist a flood once in a hundred years, but after the destruction of the Li valve, the whole river continued to tremble, like a dangerous house in a rainstorm, and could be broken through the embankment by the flood at any time!

The huge waves are monstrous, and the weeping willows and other trees on both sides of the river embankment are uprooted by the flood peak, carrying countless river fish and parallel goods together.

The invincible ships in the water battle of the Yuwen valve, in front of such a vast heavenly might, were like small ships made of paper, drifting with the current, hitting each other, making a squeaky and crisp sound, and the sturdy big ship was torn to pieces and turned into powder in an almost instant in front of the power of nature, and almost everyone on board survived.

Not far away, the Sui army sailors seemed to be frightened, hundreds of Sui Dynasty soldiers, jumped into the Grand Canal, and swam to the opposite bank desperately, Ye Lingfeng sighed, this group of Sui troops led by Zhang Xutuo is now the majority of the sailors in the entire army of the Great Sui, if they are all wiped out here, it will definitely do more harm than good to the royal family.

"Hahaha!" Li Shimin immediately laughed when he saw this scene, and asked with a smile at Chai Shao behind him: "How is it, everyone, is my plan still wonderful?" "The Yuwen Valve is also a strong enemy to him, and at this time, being able to use the embankment of the Tiger Leaping Gorge to greatly reduce the strength of both the royal family and the Yuwen Valve is beneficial to the Li Valve.

"It's a pity that only three of the eleven big ships of Yuwen Valve have been hooked. As soon as the royal navy saw this scene, they immediately ran and scattered, although this can also lead to the drowning of many people, but in the end, most of the sailors are still familiar with the water nature, and can basically maintain more than eighty percent of the troops. Li Xiuning was sharp-eyed and intelligent, and gave a calm judgment after only a few glances.

Chai Shao bowed and said: "Whether it is Shimin or Xiuning girl, they are really gods!" Li Valve has your brother and sister, and you will compete in the world in the future, and you should be a divine weapon. It's ridiculous that I Chai Shao, who boasts of knowing astronomy and geography, leading troops to fight, and being invincible, but I have never thought of such a wonderful tactic, admire, admire! ”

The Sui army fled to the shore, but the private army of the Yuwen lord, who had been waiting patiently for a long time, could not bear it, and the Sui army had been broken by Li Shimin's unpredictable abnormal tactics.

Even if the Sui army had an advantage in numbers, but with the Yuwen lord's anger to attack, Zhang Xutuo did not even have the opportunity to reorganize the armament and call for morale, and the entire Sui army was killed and fled in the direction of Luoyang.

Ye Lingfeng frowned slightly at this time, now that the Sui army has been defeated, since Li Tang has already made a move, then the next battle between them Yuwen Valve and Li Valve is inevitable, and the current situation shows that Li Valve has an absolute advantage.

In terms of ships and ships alone, there are only eight of the eleven five-tooth ships left in Yuwen Valve. In terms of the strength of the land army, Yuwen sent 30,000 elite soldiers this time, and Yu Wenhua personally took charge. On the Li Valve's side, there are six large ships of modern standard, as well as as as 40,000 land troops.

The gap between the two sides in terms of the army is about the same, but Li Zhan has always been good at using the art of war, Li Shimin is one of the best, he himself is also a brave and good soldier, this battle is also deeply addicted to his sister Li Xiuning Chai Shao, very well prepared.

In contrast, the people in the Yuwen valve are all reckless men who are directly brutal as soon as their minds are hot, and the two sides directly clash on the frontal battlefield, Ye Lingfeng does not think that the Yuwen valve side has the possibility of victory. Unless he is so bold as to fight directly with his life and exchange his life for Li Shimin's life, but a person like him will obviously not do this.

If he can win such a battle involving the two major lords of today, Li Shimin will not only win the honorary title of defending the imperial court, but also accumulate the hearts of the people and get a reward from the imperial court. Annihilating the main forces led by Yu Wenhua and Yu Wen can also eradicate a future enemy for Li Valve.

This is undoubtedly a great joy for Li Tang, but it is not a good thing for Ye Lingfeng, you must know that the strongest thing about Li Shimin lies in his imperial atmosphere and character appearance, it is easy to recruit a large number of famous generals and talents, and even many times before the battle is fought, someone takes the initiative to post it upside down with the army and the city.

Not to mention that after a while, the concubine Xuan who is alias Qin Chuan will elect the emperor in Luoyang, and she will summon people from all over the world, saying things like fairness, justice, and openness to attract the attention of the people, but in fact, they have already decided that Li Shimin will be the future true dragon emperor.

If you want him to say that these nuns in Cihang Jingzhai are simply full of food and idle all day long, they have long been biased towards Li Shimin, and then they even openly handed over the heirloom of He's Bi Jade Seal to Li Shimin. Where is this election of the emperor, it is simply openly building momentum for Li Shimin, allowing more famous and talented generals to gather under his command and attracting more people's hearts to him.

With the head-to-head confrontation between the forces of Li Valve and Yuwen Valve, Li Shimin wore battle armor and took the initiative to stand in front of the army, and behind him were all Xuanjia cavalry! The jet-black armor was like a cloak of death on the cavalry, and their cold eyes were watching the Yuwen Lord's army by the river.

The Xuanjia cavalry is quite famous in later generations, they are Li Shimin's personal private army, Li Shimin carefully selected from many northern knights and children of the family, trained the Xuanjia cavalry, in the future Li Valve's battle for the world, the establishment of countless miracles.

Yu culture and training of the private army is naturally not to be underestimated, Li Shimin sent troops to charge, the two sides of the battle is about to break out, Ye Lingfeng can see from the cavalry just from the cavalry charge which is stronger and which is weak, this battle will be the victory of Li Valve, Yuwen Valve's main force is afraid that it will become a stepping stone for Li Shimin to win the world.

Ye Lingfeng took Fu Junwu to directly use the boats in the Grand Canal as a springboard, and crossed the entire Grand Canal to the other side, he couldn't let Li Shimin win the first wonderful battle like this, he didn't believe that this person was really the chosen one? He personally commanded the Sui army, so he didn't believe that he couldn't touch this Li Valve.

Li Shimin, who was facing in the distance, was confidently commanding the Xuanjia cavalry to eliminate most of the Yuwen Valve's army, most of them were strong in martial arts, coupled with the idea of a sudden attack, which caught several generals of the Yuwen family off guard, and Chai Shao even slashed Yu Wenhua's shoulder with a sword. As Ye Lingfeng expected, Yuwen was defeated and retreated, and many people had already begun to flee.

The remaining remnants of the Yuwen Lord's army were no longer enough to fear, Li Shimin put away his sword, and he didn't plan to go into battle in person, he straightened out his battle armor, took out a note from his coat, looked at the small words on it, and couldn't help but smile slightly.

I saw that it was written in a graceful and dignified small block letter: "Brother Shimin, the last time I talked with my brother about the situation in the world, Qin Chuan benefited a lot, and I admired the policy of governing the country for a long time. A month later, Cihang Jingzhai Luoyang elected the emperor, and the younger brother came with the Heshi Bi, hoping that the brother would come on time, Qin Chuanji. ”

"Qin Chuan... Well, since it is for the great cause of the emperor, this trip to Luoyang, I am going to go immediately, this defeat of the Yuwen valve, can inspire me Li Valve's glory, and then there is this Luoyang emperor trip, it seems that I will chase the world, and the journey of attacking the world will be put on the agenda. Hmph, that supreme position is my Li Valve's as soon as possible! ”

At this moment, a sharp arrow broke through the air, Li Shimin only felt a dizziness in his brain, and his body shook back subconsciously, and then several Xuanjia cavalry guarded Li Shimin's side, and he shouted: "Who is it?" Engaging in this kind of trick of sneak attack behind the scenes, it is really vain to claim to be heroic, can you dare to show up? ”

Ye Lingfeng was surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, approaching Li Valu's army from afar, and beside him stood Zhang Xutuo and Fu Junwu, who were holding a big bow and arrow, and waved his hand at Li Shimin with a smile, obviously the arrow that almost pierced Li Shimin's chest just now was shot by him.

"Who are you? Why did the Sui Army Sailors listen to you? Zhang Xutuo, could it be that you also betrayed the court? Li Shimin invited a few miles away and sent someone to spread the word.

Ye Lingfeng has his own strong internal strength, and he doesn't need the help of others to open his mouth to spread the voice: "Don't the people of the world recognize me?" Hahaha... Also, I have not appeared in the court for a long time, but all the regants of the previous dynasty basically let people convey their intentions on their behalf, and the people naturally don't recognize me. Then introduce yourself, I am the current prince, Yang Zhao. ”

"What? Yang Zhao, the prince of Yuande? Li Shimin was greatly surprised, this mysterious prince who saw the head and the end of the dragon, even he was meeting for the first time, he thought that this person was either in seclusion or had died, but he didn't expect that his martial arts were so profound, and he could easily take over the Sui army's 10,000-strong army when they met for the first time.
