Chapter 519 Keeping Sishui

For Li Shimin's words, Duan Zhixuan and Yin Kaishan did not believe them all.

The second general even had some doubts, did Li Shimin worry too much, now that they are guarding the checkpoint, how can the enemy army break through the checkpoint so easily?
But no matter what, Li Shimin is the main general, and he may even be their future lord. It's not appropriate to offend him now, so let's obey obediently!
As long as the Sishui is not broken, then everything will be fine.

On the Guan wall, the defenders are under great pressure. After all, there are less than 10 people in Guanzhong.At this moment, only a part of them are stationed on the wall, so how can the pressure not be too great?
The number of enemy troops outside the pass was too many, and several waves of shocks were launched one after another.If they hadn't responded properly, I am afraid that the enemy army would have already killed the city tower and reached Guanzhong.

Fighting on the battlefield is very exhausting, and a big battle can make people exhausted.Blocking several waves of the enemy's charge has already caused many defenders to fall into a passive state.

Also at this moment, some enemy soldiers took advantage of the lack of defense, directly climbed the ladder, killed the Guanlou, and culled the surrounding defenders, providing opportunities for the comrades behind to charge.

Originally, this soldier thought that he had already taken the initiative at this moment, as long as his own troops killed the Guanlou, he would be able to make great contributions, win Luo Cheng's reward, get promoted and make a fortune.

After all, Luo Cheng's request was only to go to the Guanlou first, and he had already fulfilled this requirement.As long as the war is over, all of this will be logical and there will be no accidents.

But the problem is, Luo Cheng's reward is for the living, so what can the dead get?

Before the soldier could be happy, he saw a thin figure walking towards him with a pair of golden hammers for beating drums and urns in his hands, and then smashed them hard with the hammer.

The soldier didn't have time to utter an exclamation, and flew directly out of the wall, and fell hard to the ground.If you look closely, you can see that his eyes are wide open, and he is no longer breathing.

The hero who suddenly killed him was Li Yuanba sent by Li Shimin.

Li Yuanba stood in the Guanlou, his gaze swept across, full of deterrence, with this bonus, the morale of the defenders seemed to rise again.

After all, with the protection of Li Yuanba, they felt at ease and could continue to fight.

For the coalition forces, this was undoubtedly a disaster. The soldiers present came from various anti-kings, and most of them knew Li Yuanba, and they knew how powerful he was.

Such an existence sits on the Guanlou, how can they have a chance to kill the Guanwall?
No matter how high the price is paid, I'm afraid he will only be beaten out of the pass in the end!

Although Li Yuanba appeared on the Guanlou, there was no order from Luo Cheng behind him, and the soldiers did not dare to retreat, so they had to bite the bullet and charge forward.

The battle situation is still fierce, the only thing that has changed is that the casualties of the defenders on the wall are much smaller, while the losses of the allied forces attacking the key point are much more than before, and the corpses fall outside the wall.

Seeing such a battle situation, the anti-kings from all walks of life suddenly became anxious. They didn't care about the casualties of the soldiers.

It's just that such a result made the anti-kings feel nervous. Now that Li Yuanba is guarding Sishui Pass, can they really take it down?

Apart from the trepidation of the anti-kings, Luo Cheng was also watching the battle. Li Shimin directly sent Li Yuanba out, it was really decisive, and Luo Chengwei was a little surprised.

But that's all, Luo Cheng nodded indifferently, and said: "Even Li Yuanba has been dispatched, it seems that the defenders in Guanzhong are really at the end of their rope, call for gold and withdraw immediately!"

If this kind of battle continues to stalemate, there will be no results, but the price of attacking Sishui Pass will be too high. This is not what Luo Cheng wants to see, so it is better to withdraw the troops directly.

If you want to break through the Sishui Pass, there are still many strategies, so you don't need to use your life to fill them in here.

The anti-kings were a little surprised, they didn't expect that Luo Cheng would choose to retreat, but after thinking about it carefully, this matter was expected, after all, Luo Cheng had already said that tonight was not a decisive battle.

Retirement is also a retreat. The rebellious kings are already tied to Luo Cheng. Although they may not all be prosperous, they will definitely be damaged.

If Yan Yun was defeated, then all the anti-kings in the alliance at this moment would definitely be taken care of by Li Yuan, in order to avenge the encroachment at this moment.

Now their best strategy is to defeat Li Yuan with Luo Cheng, so as to ensure their own safety.

Under Luo Cheng's order, the coalition forces' offensive gradually subsided and they retreated to the camp.

Luo Cheng's eyes flickered slightly, he took a meaningful look at Guan Lou, and then went back to the big tent.

……

Shut up the water.

The second general Duan Zhixuan saw the enemy retreating, he was a little surprised, the offensive was so fierce just now, and now he chose to retreat so straightforwardly, what is the reason?
Li Shimin also heaved a sigh of relief, and said: "The enemy army really has the intention of probing, and they are not prepared to fight to the death with our army. Seeing Yuanba going into battle, they ordered to retreat. The two generals can rest assured."

Duan Zhixuan nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Second Young Master's clever calculations, I will admire you in the end."

Duan Zhixuan was really convinced. Originally, he had doubts about Li Shimin's decision, but now that the result has come out, how can he have any reason to doubt Li Shimin?
Yin Kaishan was the same, he shook his head slightly and said: "The last general is really a rough man, he didn't even understand the second son's deep meaning, if it wasn't for the second son's plan, I'm afraid we have fallen into the enemy's plan."

Li Shimin smiled wryly, and said helplessly: "The two generals are absurd. It is thanks to the two generals that we were able to defend Sishui Pass this time. Shimin alone will never be able to complete it."

"Besides, this response is not because Shimin is good at planning, but because he is more familiar with Luo Cheng. In the future, if the enemy attacks again, it may not be so easy." Li Shimin's tone became more and more serious, and he said hesitantly.

The second general is also a little helpless, who told them that they are completely at a disadvantage in other places except for the checkpoint?

But Li Shimin was relieved quickly, smiled and said: "However, the two generals don't need to worry too much. The news has already been sent to Daxing. Presumably, the father will send an army to support in a few days."

Duan Zhixuan slowed down and said hesitantly: "The battle situation at Sishuiguan is unfavorable now, and Luoyang is not the foundation of our Tang Dynasty. I am afraid that the prince may not send people to support him, but he wants to stick to Daxing!"

"If this is the case, it will be a bit troublesome...but don't worry too much, everything is waiting for the news from the father." Li Shimin nodded slightly, looked at the second general and said.

The second general said yes, no longer delay, and brought his own people to count the casualties and deal with the battlefield.

Li Shimin sighed quietly. If Li Yuan didn't send a large army to support, the situation would be even more severe. Without Luoyang's buffer, would Daxing be able to hold on?
Luo Cheng's combat power is too strong, Li Shimin only thinks that it is not easy for Alexander to hold on to the checkpoint!
Li Shimin shook his head helplessly, and put all his thoughts behind him one by one.
