bastard seizes tang

Chapter 486
Li Ji is the best way to protect himself, and will not easily get involved in the battle for the reserve position. Back then when Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng fought, Li Ji was like this, and this time is no exception.

In fact, Li Ke's answer to Li Ji's was also within Li Ke's expectations. Li Ji's temperament was such that he was an important minister of the two dynasties, so he would not easily be used by the prince, let alone stand in line casually.

Li Ke also didn't want to force Li Ji to go too far, lest the gain outweigh the loss, which is not beautiful.After all, Li Ke is still in the Northern Expedition, and his energy is still on Xue Yantuo and Junji Mountain. Li Ji's matter is not in a hurry, it's just a test. Now Li Ke's top priority is to win Junji Mountain.

Two days later, at the beginning of the second half of the night, it was ugly time.

The ugly time of the day is the most sleepy time of the night. The Xue Yantuo guards on duty in the previous shift have returned to the camp to rest and have already fallen asleep, while the guards in the next shift are still asleep. The military defense is the most relaxed time.

After the feint attack in the past few days, Xue Yantuo had a little understanding of the habit of Tang Jun's feint attack, and basically figured out the time.

Lu Gu, the chief general of the guarding the river, looked up at the sky, estimated the time, and knew that the Tang army's feigned attack with beating drums would probably start in half an hour.

Once Tang Jun started a feint attack, the sound of drums would be deafening, and he would not be able to think about peace for a moment. Lu Gu felt more and more tired when he thought of this.

After several days of tossing and tossing about Tang Jun, Yimang was the only one who didn't sleep well. The same was true for Lu Gu. These days, Lu Gu hadn't had a good night's sleep, and he hadn't even laid down on the bed solidly, even his face was pale. A few points.

But fortunately, Yemang has already said that the reinforcements from Khan Court will arrive in two days, and then they can withdraw their garrison and have a good rest for a few days.

Thinking of finally being able to sleep soundly, Lu Gu felt more and more sleepy instead, he yawned, tears appeared in the corners of his eyes, he confessed, hid himself behind, and lay down against a tree.

There is still more than half an hour before Tang Jun's feint attack. Instead of waiting until then to be disturbed by the noise, it is better to take a nap and rest for a while at this time.

Thinking about it, Lu Gu slowly closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while, but Lu Gu would not know that this sleep turned out to be his last sleep.

Not long after Lu Gu fell into a drowsy sleep, on the south bank of the Dabu River, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were already silent, and their horses held their horses, quietly touched them, and arrived at the river without making a sound.

Li Ke looked at the other side of the river in front of all the troops, and looked at Xue Yantuo's soldiers who had already been exhausted. Li Ke knew very well that his strategy of exhausting the army had already worked, and today was the best time for him to seize the river.

If he failed to seize the river today, Xue Yantuo would have sensed his purpose, and he had missed a good opportunity. If he wanted to seize the river in the future, he would have to attack by force.

Li Ke handed the command flag for dispatching the army to the hand of Su Dingfang beside him, and said to Su Dingfang: "In the battle tonight, this king must take the Dabu River at all costs."

Although Li Ke loves soldiers like sons and does not want his sons to die, Li Ke knows that if today is not successful, more people will die in the future, so Li Ke also ordered Su Dingfang, who was in command of the flag and dispatched the army, to die. Order, at any cost, to take down the Dabu River.

Su Dingfang also responded straight away: "Major Governor, don't worry, tonight our army will wait for work with leisure and fight with fatigue with strength. If we can't win, we will come to see you in the end."

After Su Dingfang finished speaking, he took the command flag from Li Ke and led the army forward.

At the beginning of the march, Su Dingfang also ordered people to walk quietly, don't make any big noises, and leaned quietly towards the river bank, because every step they can take, it means that hundreds of soldiers will be saved from death in battle until they touch the river bank. On the other side, the Xue Yantuo people who looked at the other side noticed it.

"Tang Jun has crossed the river, Tang Jun has crossed the river." Seeing the faintly visible figure of Tang Jun on the other side, Xue Yantuo shouted.

But again and again, Xue Yantuo people have seen many scenes of Tang Jun's feint attack these days. Even though they heard the news of Tang Jun crossing the river and saw the unclear figures in the night, most of them didn't take it seriously. It was another more realistic feint by Tang Jun.

Xue Yantuo still looked undisciplined, and even Lu Gu, the general guarding the river, didn't take it seriously when he heard the call in a daze while half awake and half asleep.

"What a fuss." Hearing the shout, Lu Gu didn't even bother to open his eyes, turned his head away, and fell asleep again.

The Xue Yantuo people have been a little paralyzed by Tang Jun's feint attacks these days, and have lost their initial vigilance and reaction, and Xue Yantuo's negligence also gave Tang Jun an excellent opportunity. Tang Jun rushed to the river without hurting any soldiers. , The pontoon bridge was successfully built.

"Plop, plop, plop."

As the sound of falling water rang in the ears of Xue Yantuo people, more and more Xue Yantuo people finally felt that something was wrong. If Tang Jun just feigned an attack, why would he go into the water?

"Tang Jun is really crossing the river, Tang Jun is really crossing the river!" Seeing Tang Jun crossing the river and building a bridge, Xue Yantuo finally realized that this time Tang Jun was coming for real.

Amidst the shouts one after another, the Xue Yantuo people hurriedly assembled the army for defense, and the defenders in the front also shot arrows into the river one after another, trying to force the Tang army back with the rain of arrows like last time.

They thought well, and wanted to repel the Tang army like last time, but they didn't know that the last time the Tang army crossed the river was just a test, but this time Li Ke issued a death order, and he must take the Dabu River at all costs. .

With the round shield in one hand and the driftwood in the other, the generals of the Tang army risked their lives to go deep into the Dabu River against the rain of arrows.

On the south bank of the Dabu River, Su Dingfang, who was in charge of the seizure of the river, watched the reaction on the other side and knew that the Xue Yantuo people must have sensed the Tang army's offensive, so he stopped hiding and told the herald behind him: "The Chinese army beat you!" Drum! Capture the river!"

"Promise." The herald behind him got the order and immediately ordered the troops to beat the drums.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A burst of loud and thick drums that resounded through the sky sounded on the south bank of the Dabu River. With the sound of gold and stone, it seemed to have the power to split mountains and mountains, and to block water and flow. Crush together with Xue Yantuo.

The sound of the heavy drums today was much more shocking than the previous ones. Hearing the shocking drums in his ears, Xue Yantuo realized that this was the sound of the Tang army's marching drums. The previous ones were nothing more than musical instruments. .

Xue Yantuo was exhausted for days and was already at the end of his strength. Tang Jun's sudden seizure of the river not only broke Xue Yantuo's courage, but also finally woke up Lu Gu who was dozing off.

Lu Gu sat up and looked at the scene in front of him. He couldn't react for a while, as if he was in a dream. After a while, he woke up completely.

"Quickly, report to the secret service!" Lu Gu stood up with his saber in hand to organize defense, and at the same time ordered someone to report the matter to Ye Mang.

Lu Gu still wanted to report to Yimang about the seizure of the river by the Tang army, hoping that he would send troops to reinforce him, but how could Su Dingfang give him the opportunity to wait for reinforcements.

At first the Tang army crossed the river, and the Xue Yantuo people were on the shore, and the Xue Yantuo people still occupied some advantages, but as the Tang army in the front almost piled up a road with corpses, and the blood stained the river red, the first batch of Tang troops finally came together. After the fragrance, he boarded the north bank.

The Xue Yantuo people had already missed the best opportunity to defend and gave the Tang army a foothold to cross the river, and the Tang army would overwhelm them.

A river held back the invincible elites of the Tang Dynasty for several days, causing many deaths and injuries. When the first batch of Tang soldiers boarded the river bank, the suffocation that had accumulated for many days finally broke out in an instant, and they lived to death. He swung his saber forward, but in a moment, Da Tang Erlang broke out a clearing on the north bank and gained a firm foothold.

Standing on the south bank, Li Ke looked at more and more soldiers of the Tang Dynasty on the north bank. He was overjoyed and said loudly: "The Dabu River is owned by our army. Let the army cross the river!"
