Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 225

In Fucheng City, on the fourth day, the scouts in front even said that the military flag of the Tang Dynasty was hung above the city.After hearing the news, Li Daozong still didn't believe it, but when he led the Chinese army to the city, his jaw dropped in shock when he saw the military flag fluttering in the wind.

He couldn't understand how Li Chengqian and Hou Junji managed to capture this city with a population of 3 with only nearly 30 horses.If it was him who couldn't beat him anyway, Li Daozong, who scratched his chin, couldn't help thinking in his heart, could I be so different from them?
"The last general Zhang Zhizhi, Zhang Zhihui will see the deputy commander." The two brothers were very happy when they heard the report of the reinforcements. It's not certain how long the city can last.

"Excuse me, where is the crown prince? Where is Lu Guogong? How are they doing?", Li Daozong didn't care about whether he was polite or not, but he didn't care about those two people, but whoever had an accident, that day had to be stepped down.

"Back to the deputy commander, His Royal Highness is still defending against the enemy in Xingsuchuan, Duke Lu brought 1000 people to pursue Fu Yun."

They took down Fucheng City three days ago, and took the lives of more than 2000 brothers for the first time. It was a very happy thing to win such a victory, but who knew that old khan Fuyun would run away The angry Hou Jun almost lit the city with a torch.

Immediately after discussing with Qin Huaiyu, Dugumou and other generals, it was decided that Hou Junji would personally lead 5000 soldiers to pursue Fu Yun to the northwest, and Qin Huaiyu and Dugumou would lead [-] troops to Xingsuchuan at night.

So the capital of Tuyuhun is currently guarded by only a thousand Tang troops, which is why Zhang Zhihui and his brothers can't sleep.

After hearing Zhang Zhizhi's explanation, Li Daozong nodded again and again. He really didn't expect these two guys to be so daring. From the broken armor traces on the two brothers and the guards behind them, he knew how hard they fought. difficult.

After a short period of weighing, Li Daozong turned around and said to the generals: "Order, Su Lie, Qima Heli led [-] troops to help Xingsuchuan, Li Daoyan, Zhi Susili led [-] troops to the northwest to march to the rescue Hou Jun will set up his troops, and the rest of the troops will immediately enter Fuqi City with the Commander in Chief. Finally, write a military report to explain the situation here to the General, and wait for the General's order."

After Li Daozong finished speaking, all the generals bowed their hands and took orders, but when Li Daozong was about to lead troops into the city, Zhang Zhizhi and his brothers stood in front of his horse. Su Lie went to Xingsu River together.

For their request, Li Daozong was both gratified and embarrassed. The gratified thing was that the bastards were all deeply affectionate, and his nephew brought out a group of good soldiers.The embarrassing thing is that they have been fighting for so long, what is the difference between letting them go into battle and letting them die.

Seeing that Li Daozong was silent, Zhang Zhizhi and others knelt down on the ground directly, and they were still muttering to ask the deputy commander to complete.It was all like this, what else could Li Daozong say, and then he could only nod his head, and sent someone to notify Su Lie to take care of him along the way.

Looking at the galloping backs of these six-rate soldiers, Li Daozong couldn't help but murmured: "What a terrifying army this is." What a terrifying existence the army is.

Such an army will maintain a strong will to fight no matter what the situation is. I believe that even Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, would not want to encounter such an army on the battlefield. .
Xingsuchuan, the main tent of the Tang army camp
Li Chengqian sat in the handsome position and looked at the general sitting in the tent. He knew that there was a lot of pressure now, and the brothers had tried their best. It would be too unreasonable to put more pressure on them.

"At present, our army and the main force of Xikaidao are cut off, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties. Now there are only more than [-] soldiers who can fight, and they all talk about how to fight the next battle." Many generals and schools in the army believed that they should retreat to the city of Fushi and wait for the rescue of the main force of Xikaido.

"Your Highness, the last general thinks that we should continue to fight. The battle has reached this point, and both eyes are red. Is it possible to retreat if you want to? Besides, Donggukou is still in the hands of our army, so we have lost the advantage of the geographical advantage. If our army retreats at this time, will the enemy army catch up and kill us one by one."

Don't think that Fang Yizhi's martial arts skills are average, but he is a Confucian general who is more sensitive to problems.Especially after several years of training on the battlefield, he has become more and more sophisticated in using troops, and he can be regarded as a top-notch general among the six-rate generals.

"Your Highness, I think it's better to find a time when people won't notice and retreat to Fucheng City. It's better to sit on a strong city than to deal with them in this mountain." The person who spoke was called Laiji, who was The son of General Zuo Yiwei of the Sui Dynasty, Lai Huer's son, this time and his younger brother Lai Heng also set off with Li Chengqian for the first time.

Hearing what Laiji said, the eldest grandson Jiaqing stood up first, pointed at Laiji and shouted loudly: "Why, you haven't lost this battle yet, you are going to be afraid of death when you come to Ji. How will you feel when you are so promising?"

Normally, the elder Sun Jiaqing would not be so angry, but his elder son Sun Shunde is still awake in the tent. If he withdraws, his father's injury and the lives of Lan Shan and others will be sacrificed in vain.Less than two thousand of the five thousand sons came back, and they were all raised by their fathers and mothers. If they didn't avenge them, what face would they have to go back to Guanzhong to meet those elders?

The eldest grandson Jiaqing's words made the brothers anxious, and the two brothers stood up and planned to teach the guy who insulted their father, but at this moment, Zuo Wei led the way and Qin Huaiyu stood up and shouted at the three of them. .

"I've been fooled by the war. How the hell have you forgotten the rules of the Eastern Palace? Didn't you see His Highness still sitting on it? What do you want to do? Do you still have His Highness in your eyes? Is there any military law?"

Qin Huaiyu is the leader of the six generals, and has a high prestige in the army. Of course, this is the reason why Li Chengqian deliberately cultivated him.After hearing Qin Huaiyu's scolding, the three also apologized to Li Chengqian one after another.And Li Chengqian waved his hand immediately, indicating that it's okay, let them sit back now.

Hmph, after a cold snort, Qin Huaiyu turned around and gave Li Chengqian a blow, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the enemy is only [-] people, and our army has killed more than [-] people these days. Our army is tired, aren't they tired? Is it? And they are attacking, and our army is defending, so they have no advantage in terms of strength."

"Just like what the head of the room, Shi Fang, said, our army should use the existing advantageous terrain to kill and injure the enemy in large numbers, and fight them until we have exhausted all the arrows. In a word, there is no order from Your Highness, it is Even if you die, you have to die straight on the battlefield."

After Qin Huaiyu finished speaking, Li Chengqian couldn't help clapping his hands. After all, he was his most caring general, and he knew what to say when.

"Generals, General Qin is right. The battle is fought so far is the will to fight. Whoever can persevere until the last moment is the winner. Now our army has no way out and can only fight to the death."

"Order", when Li Chengqian said these two words, he said that all the generals stood up and waited for Li Chengqian's instructions.

"From now on, the whole army will stick to Donggukou. If all the soldiers are dead, the lower-level officers will fill in. If all the lower-level officers are dead, you will fill in. If everyone is dead, I will fill in myself."
