The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 609 590 eight: Ji Shimin makes handsome

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Second brother! You surrounded the enemy in all directions, obviously not to give the soldiers in the city a way out. They couldn't run from any direction. What can you do if they don't stick to it?" !

If you ask me, all the soldiers in this city are probably now united as one, and they will fight us to the bottom.

If you ask me, this method is not advisable, and this is the main reason why this city cannot be captured!

If you want me to say, withdraw the soldiers on the south side first, and at the same time strengthen the offensive strength on the east, west and north sides. If the enemy thinks that this city cannot be defended, they will definitely open the south gate and escape!

After releasing them, wouldn't it be much easier for us to chase after them and fight them?
Why let them occupy this high city and defend it to the death! "

Li Shimin suddenly realized.

"Oh! So that's how it is! Promise! If the soldiers attacking the city in the south are withdrawn, how long do you think it will take for us to take this city?"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Well! If that's the case, I think I can take this city within three to five days!"

After hearing this, Li Shimin sent an order to withdraw all the soldiers attacking the southern city wall, and at the same time adjust the other three sides to strengthen the attacking power of the other three sides!

After the order was passed on, Li Shimin looked at Duan Wuji and asked, "What should we do next?"

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Let the siege brothers rest for two days. Let's attack the city again on the third day. Let's take this city down with one effort!"

Li Shimin blinked his eyes.

"Wuji! Are you that sure?"

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"Who dares to say if you can't take it down! Who will know if you don't try it?
Second brother, haven't you attacked it for such a long time and failed to capture it!

If you can take it down, you won't be able to send me to the West Road Army! "

Li Shimin grinned when he heard this.

"Brother, what you said is really true! It's really true.

Alright, I'll do as you want, let's see the result after three days!

Brother, you are so handsome!How about you directing for me for a few days?Brother, I also take a rest! "

Duan Wuji smiled wryly after hearing this: "If I command for you, it will only take three to five days at most! If you want to go for more than ten days, I'm afraid it's impossible!"

Li Shimin blinked his eyes.

"Brother, what is that for?"

"No reason, you will know when the time comes."

Li Shimin immediately sent an order to the soldiers who attacked the city to stop attacking the city, and at the same time strengthen their vigilance and stand by for orders to rest.

To tell the truth, the soldiers who attacked the city were tired long ago, but the master ordered them to attack the city. They had no choice but to persevere.

Now when they heard that the siege had stopped, everyone was overjoyed, and the soldiers rested where they were.

They all slept like dead pigs.

When it was dark, two fast horses ran over, and the two schoolboys got off their horses.

One of the small schools shouted loudly at the soldiers inside the gate: "We are soldiers of the western army. We have sent horses and weapons to the two generals Duan Wuji and Duan Tieniu under the order of my commander. Go in and let me know."

As soon as Li Shimin heard that Duan Wuji and Tieniu were sent weapons.

But he was so happy that he ordered someone to open the gate and let them in.

The two tied the horses to the horse stakes outside the big tent, and then followed the soldiers to meet Li Shimin.

After saluting to Li Shimin, the two of them talked about the gift of horses and weapons, and were about to ask for a reply and return to their orders.

Li Shimin smiled when he saw it, and said, "Why are you so anxious to write a reply! You see, it's getting late now, so you can rest here for the night and leave tomorrow!

In a while, I will ask the secretary to prepare the approval documents for you, so that I won't delay your work tomorrow. "

The two of them bowed their hands up.

"Then thank you, Lord General, if that's the case, then let's stay here for a night!"

Li Shimin ordered his own soldiers to lead the two of them down, Li Shimin looked at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "My dear brothers, are you two waiting for your weapons and horses! I am only allowed to rest for two days!"

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"Well, not at all!
Second brother, didn't you see it!Those soldiers were actually tired a long time ago. Can this tired army still win the battle?

It's better to let them have a good rest and rest.

Three days later, if we take down this city in one go, won't it be over! "

Li Shimin looked at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "Brother, after three days, if you command the siege, how sure are you of winning!"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and stretched out a finger.

Li Shimin was disappointed when he saw it!

"Brother, after working for a long time, you are only [-]% sure that you will attack the city in three days' time!"

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"Second brother, if I'm really [-]% sure, I won't even speak up! Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you to dare to speak with [-]% certainty?"

"Then dear brother, what does it mean that you stretched out a finger?

Why can't I understand it! "

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"Second brother, I mean, if I command this siege, I'm [-]% sure.

Brother, why are you asking this! "

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"My dear brother, since you are so confident, I might as well hand over this command to you.

You can direct for me for a few days first!
I'll be your deputy on the sidelines, and if you have anything to do, you can make a decision yourself! "

After hearing this, Duan Wuji asked: "If the generals don't obey the orders, what should they do?"

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Do you still need to ask me this! Who dares to disobey the general's words, just push it out and kill it!"

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"That's good! Then I will direct for you for three days and a few days starting tomorrow!
No matter what, I have to help you take this Hefei city down! "

Li Shimin stepped down from his seat.

"Now this position is yours, let me see how you commanded and captured this city of Hefei!

Li Shimin immediately recruited the generals and told them loudly of his decision.

And tell the generals, whoever dares to disobey the order will be killed without mercy! "

Duan Wuji walked up to the handsome case, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, then second brother, I'll start dispatching generals now."

Li Shimin smiled slightly.

"You send it, I'll watch from the side!"

Duan Wuji looked at both sides and said: "Qi Guoyuan, Li Ruhui, Huang Chenghu, Li Chenglong, Cheng Yaojin listen to the order."

Five people stood out from the crowd.

"The general is here, Marshal, I don't know what to order!"

"The five of you led [-] soldiers, set up camp quietly tonight, and found a favorable terrain to hide in a place fifty or sixty miles away from Hefei City.

When the enemy's defeated soldiers arrive, the five of you stop them, but don't let them run away.

You five, Cheng Yaojin is your leader, you just listen to him.

You must act quietly tonight, but you must not let the enemy find your whereabouts!

Once the enemy discovers your whereabouts, our plan will fail.

You go down! "

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji handed the order to Cheng Yaojin, and the five people followed the order.

Duan Wuji glanced at the rest of the people and said: "It's all right now, everyone go back to the camp to rest!
Let me tell you that we will not raise the account tomorrow morning, and we will increase the account after lunch. Everyone should have a good rest, and it is time for us to buy strength in the afternoon.

Let's break up the account! "

When the generals saw it, they thought to themselves: Duan Wuji's two actions are not very good, isn't it just this two actions!Who wouldn't!

Now that he has announced that he has disbanded the account, let's go back to sleep!
After the generals left, Li Shimin laughed and said, "Brother, when are you going to attack the city!"

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Tomorrow when the sun goes down, let's attack the city, and the morning after tomorrow, how about we have breakfast in Hefei city!"

Li Shimin smiled wryly after hearing this.

"If that's the case, it would be great to dare. However, I'm just afraid that it won't work!"

Duan Wuji said with a smile: "You will know the result the morning after tomorrow.

Well, let's go to rest. "
