First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 107 Death Battle
...

Seeing that the morale was somewhat frustrated, Hao Yuan's face darkened, and he ordered: "If you stand still, you will be killed without mercy."

The general of Xiqin didn't dare to hesitate when he heard the order, he hurriedly raised his knife and shouted, and rushed out first.

"Brothers, let's fight to the death," Gao Chong clenched his teeth and shouted while holding the knife in both hands.

For a moment, the sound of "death battle" resounded through the valley.

Gao Chong led the army to occupy favorable terrain, only on the banks of the river valley, thanks to Xue Renyue climbing up before, the river banks were very slippery and untenable.

Even if someone climbed ashore with difficulty, the oncoming ones were either horizontal knives or long spears. The Western Qin army climbed ashore one by one, and died one by one on the river bank. The Tang army was completely invincible.

"The Xiqin thieves can't climb up", Gao Chong laughed out loud when he saw this, pulled the wound on his waist, and gasped in pain again.

Hao Yuan on the opposite high slope finally changed his face when he saw this. He ignored the muddy river valley and the slippery river bank, and immediately ordered his personal guards to go to the central army as soon as possible, "ask Your Majesty to send more reinforcements."

There was no other way, Hao Yuan made up his mind, that is to kill 3 to [-] people here, fill up the Heihe Valley with people, and he also wants to eliminate this Tang army.

In the Chinese army, Xue Ju couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard the words, but soon ordered: "Another 3 Chinese troops, no, [-] reinforcements to the military division, must take the Black River Valley."

At this time, Li Shimin's scouts had found out the news, and Xue Ju's army had stagnated.

Just when Li Shimin was in doubt, scout Luo San came back.

"General Manager, Gao Canjun has intercepted the Western Qin Army in the Heihe Valley."

Hearing this sentence, Li Shimin didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately shouted: "Pass my order, the whole army will press down."

The messengers were on the go, and the Tang army, who had long been on standby, quickly assembled.

Li Shimin only had a short sentence spread to all departments of the army, "Ten thousand brothers have cut off the way forward of the Western Qin Army."

As long as you are not stupid, you can understand the meaning of this sentence.

All the soldiers and horses in Yong County were also sent out, joining forces with Li Shimin, with a total force of nearly [-]. Xue Rengao led an army of [-] rear troops to arrive in front of the Tang army like a solid shield.

If Li Shimin had worried too much yesterday, he might not have pressed the whole army, or worried that Xue Ju would cut his tail to survive, or worry that Xue Ju's main force would have an ambush, but now Li Shimin is very clear that Xue Ju's way forward has been blocked, if he does not hurry up Breakthrough, Gao Chong is at stake.

The Tang army, who was on top of the whole army, was very brave. Xue Rengao led his troops to fight to the death, and [-] troops attacked [-].

"The Tang Army is attacking fiercely, please Your Majesty for reinforcements." Xue Rengao was covered in blood, and the horse in his hand had long since been discarded. In this bloody infantry battle, a short and sharp horizontal knife is the most convenient.

The guards have to order to go.

In the middle army, Xue Ju frowned immediately when he heard the words, and asked straight away: "Where is King Jin? Why is there no movement from his 4 former army? Tell the military division that if [-] people cannot attack the Heihe Valley, let him come to see him."

No need for Xue Ju's urging, Hao Yuan at this time was also red-eyed, he personally raised his sword to supervise the battle, and directly issued the death order, leaving no room for the whole army to press on, and must capture the opposite bank.

At this point in the battle, Gao Chong's condition was not very good. If it wasn't for his personal guards desperately protecting him, Gao Chong, who was at the forefront, would have died several times. I don't know where they are scattered, their hair is in a mess, and they are covered in blood.

"Yuzhi, can you hold on?" Liu Hongji threw away the curly blade, picked up a spear, limped behind Gao Chong, and asked with the spear in his hand.

I saw that Liu Hongji was also unbearable. He suffered several wounds. A large wound suddenly appeared on the most serious thigh, exposing the flesh and blood inside.This was hacked by a Xiqin soldier who climbed up the river bank.

Gao Chong only felt that his arms were numb and weak, and the hand holding the knife was already shaking violently. Gao Chong knew in his heart that he was about to lose strength.

He struggled to untie his belt and take off the broken waist armor, only to see a gash on his stomach, bleeding continuously, Gao Chong gritted his teeth in pain, Kaohsiung hurriedly stepped forward when he saw this, took out a roll of clean silk cloth, The two struggled to wrap around the wound.

"Now I'm in a battle of the intestines." Gao Chong bared his teeth and smiled, "Zhi Niang is a thief, she died before she was able to leave the school. I managed to wear it once, but I didn't see the Tang Dynasty Liguo."

"What to wear once?" Liu Hongji was sweating from the pain after binding his legs, and asked curiously.

"I still have such a great curiosity at this time", Gao Chong shook his head and laughed when he heard the words, "You don't understand even if you talk about it".

After finishing speaking, he struggled to get up, "Brothers, fight to the death", and after speaking, he swung his knife and went straight to an oncoming Xiqin soldier.

Although Gao Chong's voice was already hoarse, he staggered forward, and his figure was extremely embarrassed, but all the Tang soldiers saw that Gao Chong was indomitable, and they were shocked and fought hard.

Gao Chong held the saber in both hands, and a huge force broke the weapon of the Western Qin soldier and slashed across his chest.

But it was too late to return the saber, and the Xiqin soldiers who rushed up from the side rushed up one after another.

"Gao Youzhi, you are really the King of Hades."

Seeing that Gao Chong was in danger, Liu Hongji rushed forward, sweeping his spears and forcing the enemy back, but before the two of them could say a word, a steady stream of Western Qin soldiers rushed forward.

The Heihe Valley, which is neither wide nor deep, has been filled with corpses of Western Qin soldiers, and the gurgling river has stopped flowing. Under the supervision of Hao Yuan, the Western Qin soldiers in the rear rushed to the opposite side one after another stepping on the corpses of their comrades. .

Xiqin Zhongjun, Xue Rengao rushed into the big tent covered in blood, "Aye, retreat, retreat quickly, the Tang army is attacking", his figure is no longer tall and mighty, and he even stumbles when he walks.

Looking at Xue Rengao who was seriously injured, Xue Ju was shocked, no longer calm, but panicked: "But the Black River Valley has not yet broken through...".

"Westward, westward retreat," Chu Liang, the waiter on the side, hurriedly said, "The Tang army in the Black River Valley must be the Tang army at Dazhenguan. Withdraw westward, first enter Qianyuan, and then plan to survive."

Hearing the words, Xue Ju seemed to be grasping at straws, and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, go west, order the whole army to withdraw west."

At this time, Li Shimin was also soaked in blood before the Tang army. Seeing that Xue Rengao had shrunk his battle line and merged into the Western Qin Central Army, Li Shimin had been keenly aware of the change in the battle situation. Xing Gong, Tang Jian, Li Anyuan, quickly intercept westward, don't leave Xue Ju's army", the orderer responded and left.

"The rest of you, follow me into the Black River Valley."

Li Shimin got on his horse, and led the soldiers and horses of the right leader Fuzhong straight to the Heihe Valley. Li Shimin's face was serious, and the veins in his hand holding the horizontal knife were exposed, "You, you must hold on."

"Military division, His Majesty has an order to withdraw westward quickly."

"What?" Hao Yuan was furious, looking at Gao Chong's troops who were at the end of their battle, he couldn't help stomping his feet in hatred.

Immediately ordered to withdraw to the west, got on his horse, and was about to leave, but turned around and came to the river bank, and asked loudly: "Dare to ask the name of the general on the other side?"

Gao Chong was already suffering from chest tightness and shortness of breath, his eyes were only blood-red, holding a long gun in both hands, holding on to it, he felt that he had no strength left in his body.

There were less than a thousand people clinging tightly to each other. Gao Chong knew that if the West Qin Army charged again, he would be completely finished.

At this time, he felt that the enemy army was receding like a tide, Gao Chong was taken aback for a moment, then his face flushed, and the reinforcements came.

Hearing the question from the other side, Gao Chong was in a trance, grinned, took a deep breath, and was about to answer, when the dozens of guards and hundreds of remnants around him shouted in unison.

"Bohai High Chong".
