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

Chapter 611 Six Hundred: Winning Hefei, Promise Iron Bull Wins Merit ([-])
When the three of them saw that the soldiers had completely retreated, they rushed down from the city wall.

Outside the city gate, the huge log was carried by the soldiers, and it hit the city gate vigorously.

The sound of "Boom, boom" spread for several miles at once!

It didn't take dozens of times, the city gate was knocked open, and the soldiers, led by Li Shimin, rushed in straight into the city.

Under the leadership of their leading generals, soldiers from all walks of life went straight to the north gate and east gate and killed them.

Duan Wuji, Tie Niu and Hou Junji also joined the rushing team.

The whole city was in chaos immediately, and there were shouts of killing everywhere!

With such a big commotion at the west city gate, wouldn't the defenders of the other city walls believe it?

As soon as they heard that the west city had fallen, the guards at the other city gates knew that the lower city could not be defended.

Who is running faster now!

The defenders on the walls, ran down the walls to ride their horses, they were running desperately!

There was no attack from Li Shimin's army at the south gate, and the defenders opened the gate and ran out first. Afterwards, the defeated troops from all over the place flocked to the south gate one after another, running faster than the rabbit.

Duan Wuji led the soldiers to chase and kill the deserters, and the people who were directly killed ran away, not knowing where to run.

The east gate and north gate were quickly opened.

Li Shimin's army swarmed in from the three city gates and quickly occupied the city.

It was already dark at this time, and the whole city was pitch black, with no lights to be seen.

After Li Shimin's army occupied the whole city, all the generals gathered in front of the yamen in the center of the city.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Generals, you have worked hard today.

Although our army is tired, the enemy's army is even more tired than ours!

We can't stay in the city for a long time, everyone immediately leads the army to chase the enemy.

Generals attacking the east gate, lead the troops and outflank the enemy from the east. If the enemy wants to break out from the east, you will drive them back.

Generals attacking the western city, each of you command your troops and horses, and encircle the enemy from the west.

If the enemy wants to break through from the west, you will drive him back.

Generals attacking the north gate, follow the enemy, and don't let the enemy break out from the north.

If the enemy does not break out from your side, you will have completed the mission.

Let's try to encircle and compress the enemy in a small encirclement before dawn, and then we will make sense after dawn. "

Although everyone is already tired, but Duan Wuji has already issued an order, every general dare not refuse to listen.

Everyone led the troops out of the south gate, and chased down the enemy who was fleeing south.

Duan Wuji glanced at Li Shimin and said with a smile: "Second brother, look at our battle today is not bad!

It turned out that I planned to take this city tonight, but I didn't expect it to be one night earlier! "

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"Brother Wuji, what you have done these two times is really not easy! If you had come here dozens of days earlier, why would I have to embarrass myself here?

To be honest, this battle was fought so beautifully, I never dreamed that it would be so easy to win this city.

Brother Wuji, let's go, let's go into the yamen!

If our soldiers and brothers have surrounded them tonight, let's find a way to destroy them tomorrow morning!

Tonight, I will set up a table of celebration wine for you, we must have a good celebration. "

Duan Wuji, Tieniu and Hou Junji accompanied Li Shimin into the Yamen, and Li Shimin immediately ordered the lights to be lit.

After a short time, the soldiers set up the banquet, and the four of them sat around the table, and then they ate and drank.

After eating and drinking, Duan Wuji stood up and said to Li Shimin: "Second brother, let the soldiers clean up the corpses in the city tomorrow!
Take them to the outskirts and bury them. This is not the same thing after all!
Tonight, let Wen write hundreds of notices, and tomorrow morning, he will issue a list to appease the people, telling the people in this city that the city has been restored, and the common people live as they should. Our army will never commit any crimes. "

Li Shimin nodded slightly after hearing this.

"Brother, the two of us want to go together, don't worry about this matter, I will arrange it in a while.

Brother, you sold your strength today.

I think you three should go to bed early!
Isn't there another big battle tomorrow?
If you don't go out, when will this battle be fought? "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"Second brother! Now everything here is entrusted to you. To be honest, the three of us are so tired today that we really don't know what to do!

We won't talk with you anymore, we went to bed. "

After finishing speaking, the three of them stepped out and found three free beds in the room next to them. The three of them fell asleep, and after a while, they remembered the sound of high and low snoring.

Li Shimin was extremely excited when he won Hefei City today.

Li Shimin didn't dare to sleep, so he summoned dozens of clerks to write notices overnight, ordering thousands of soldiers to transport the corpses out of the city overnight, trying to transport all the corpses out of the city before dawn, and dig a deep hole to kill them all. buried.

Li Shimin was so busy that he didn't sleep until dawn!

After Duan Wuji and the others got up in the morning, the sky was already bright.

After the three got up, they ate something in the hall, when Li Shimin was about to ask Duan Wuji about his next plan.

Suddenly, a soldier came in and reported: "Report to your lord, the envoy sent by Chai Shao is already waiting at the door."

Li Shimin was slightly taken aback when he heard this.

"He sent someone here so soon, is there something wrong with him?"

Li Shimin said to the soldier: "Why don't you call him in quickly! Let me ask him what's the matter!"

Not long after, a man with a general appearance walked in.

The man fell on his knees to salute Li Shimin.

"The last general Zhu Wu sees the marshal."

"What's the matter! If you have something to say, just say it!"

Zhu Wu handed over a letter.

"Marshal, I have sent you a letter by order of my family, Marshal Chai."

Li Shimin smiled wryly after reading the letter!Then put the letter on the table.

"You go down first, I will write back to Chai Shao in a while, you go down and rest first!"

Master Xu saw it and asked: "Marshal, what's the matter? Can you teach me? Let me understand."

"Then Chai Shao has captured Hunan now, and is about to attack Jiangxi or Guangdong. Now he urgently needs someone, so let me quickly let Duan Wuji and his brothers go back.

You said that our army on the east road, if we have more generals than Chai Shao, has more soldiers and more generals. How come we haven't even won this one province, but he has captured two provinces.

It makes me ashamed to think about it! "

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin couldn't help shaking his head and sighing!

After hearing this, Xu Maogong smiled wryly and said: "These two people are too good at fighting, if they were in our East Route Army, maybe we won more territory than them.

Yesterday he commanded troops to attack the city, I always thought he was bragging!Who would have thought!

He rushed to the city with three or two strokes, his lightness kung fu was three points better than my old brother Hou Junji!
You said that if there are such fierce men in the army, how can this battle still be invincible?

well!It's a pity that these two people are not generals of our East Army!

If it were the generals of our East Army, I, as a military adviser, would be relieved.

That Chai Shao really knows how to pick people!If they are in the army, isn't that where to fight and conquer!
Marshal, if you want me to say, you force them to stay for a few more days, and after you have completely wiped out this rebel army, you will let them go. "

Li Shimin laughed out loud.

"Mr. Xu, the two of us really want to go together, if we just let them go, wouldn't it be cheaper for them!
You don't need to say this, I have my own way.

After they came in, I told them directly that the rebels were not completely wiped out, so they were not allowed to leave!

Let me, Li Shimin, play a rogue today too!Otherwise, our East Road army would be too shameful.

At that time, we can't explain our record! "
