First Minister of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 53
51. Enrage the Veteran
Seeing that Song Laosheng really got angry so easily, Li Shimin was overjoyed, and said loudly: "Old General Song, the tyrant has no way, causing chaos in the world and hardship for the people. We are raising troops to hunt down the thieves in order to establish a new king and help the country. Why do you want to rebel?" Acting against the laws of nature and human feelings?

Don't you hear that those who follow the sky will prosper, and those who go against the sky will perish. If you think of the common people and return to the city, we will treat each other with courtesy, and wait until the new king inherits the great treasure. The world will be stable, and you will not lose your prince position".

Song Laosheng laughed loudly when he heard this, "You are the little thief of the Li family, right? Talking about words here is like farting. Although I don't know which son of the old thief Li Yuan you are, but you are not a fool because of your air. I lost my head and came to persuade you, Aye of the Song family, to surrender."

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard the words, and then his veins showed his anger.

When Gao Chong saw this, he covered his face. The future His Majesty Li Er is still too young to provoke others, but he was angry with himself, and immediately comforted him: "Second Young Master, you are too talented, Song It's a rough man, let's see me."

"Old man Song, you farmer is quite old, you have lived to the level of a donkey and a horse, and yet you speak such vulgar words," Gao Chong scolded, pointing at the many Sui troops in the city.

"There are so many strong men here, and you will only speak vulgar words here? It is in vain that you are in a high position as a county guard. From this, it can be seen that in today's temples, rotten trees are officials; among the palaces, animals are full of food.

So that you, a vulgar farmer, are in a state of turmoil, and you are so arrogant and savage. You are in power, so that the world is in chaos, the people are in dire straits, and when the country is in crisis, you and other corrupt officials only know how to eat all day long, what can you do? "

Tian Shehan... Ye Liao... These words are really cruel.

In fact, Gao Chong cursed these words, but he was quite apologetic in his heart. After all, Laosheng Song was born in a humble background, and he was promoted all the way through his military exploits. Gao Chong had no choice but to go out of the city to fight.

Song Lao screamed angrily, pointed at Gao Chong, "Son, you...".

"Shut up", Gao Chong angrily said, "Shameless old man, don't you know that the people of the world are willing to eat the flesh of corrupt officials like you, how dare you bark here.

Today, the Lord of the Tang Dynasty seeks the thieves from heaven, and you, the rats who help the tyrant and abuse you, can only hide and shrink your head, trying to get food and clothing. How dare you resist the righteous teacher here and speak vulgar words?

The handsome man, the gray-bearded old thief, why don't you hurry out of the city and die? "

"You... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,' Song Laosheng beat the wall with his hands, and then he turned around and left quickly.

Li Shimin was stunned, and looked at Gao Chong, "Yuzhi, you, you... are too ruthless."

"Second Young Master, don't be dazed, run quickly", Gao Chong said hastily, the words fell, only the city gate was opened wide, and there was a sound like thunder.

"Son, don't go, I'll kill you alive."

Gao Chong turned his horse's head and rushed towards the Chinese army. Li Shimin was shocked when he saw this, and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly headed towards the south gate. Song Laosheng only stared at Gao Chong. He flattered his horse and yelled, "Kill the past and destroy all the siege equipment."

Gao Chong didn't turn his head back, he kept kicking and hitting the horse's belly. Fortunately, the horse he sat on was a good horse from the Western Regions. If he was caught up, ten lives would not be enough to lose him.

In the Tang army's camp, Li Yuan saw Gao Chong galloping towards him from a distance, so he knew he had succeeded, and immediately said: "Collect Gao Chong, retreat quickly."

After the words fell, Jiang Baoyi, Li Sixing and others opened the gate of the camp to meet Gao Chong, and then the whole army retreated in "panic".

"Wait to destroy the equipment," Song Laosheng ordered to a school lieutenant beside him without turning his head, "The rest of them will follow me to kill", pointing the big knife in his hand at the Tang army's camp.

Hearing this, the school captain hurriedly led his men to the siege equipment that was being built, while Song Laosheng had already led the army to catch up with the Chinese army. When he saw Li Yuan's banner from a distance, Song Laosheng was overjoyed, "Kill Li Yuan, Reward thousands of coins."

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Song Laosheng climbed up from the bottom all the way, and he would not come to those many twists and turns, and directly offered a reward of real gold and silver. Shouting and rushing forward, I wish my parents would have extra legs.

And Li Yuan looked back from a distance, and was overjoyed to see this, and retreated more than two miles away from the city gate.

At this time, Li Shimin also led the troops from the South Gate to cut off Song Laosheng's retreat, and the arrival of Chai Shao's troops announced the official beginning of Song Laosheng's defeat.

"General, there are cavalrymen from the Tang Army on the right side," the guards hurried to catch up with Song Laosheng and said in a hurry.

There was no need for his personal guards to remind him, Song Laosheng turned his head to look, only to see a huge Tang character flag fluttering in the wind, and a Chai character flag erected beside it, although he didn't know who the Chai character banner was, but even a personal guard could tell. This is an ambush.

"Quick retreat", Song Laosheng made a decisive decision, turned his horse's head and returned to the city, but when Chai Shao's soldiers came, Li Yuan ordered to turn around and fight back, and then Li Shimin's soldiers attacked head-on, Song Laosheng's eyes were tearing, and he was surrounded up.

Song Laosheng was so brave that he led his men to rush to the other side. Seeing this, Li Yuan immediately ordered: "Jiancheng, go and stop him, and Song Laosheng must be blocked." Li Jiancheng followed the order and left.

"Little thief from the Li family?" Seeing Li Jiancheng who came to intercept him, Song Laosheng recognized him at a glance.

Immediately, the horse rushed forward, with a big knife in his hand, brave and invincible, he slashed left and right, and there was no single enemy. It is less than ten steps away.

Li Jiancheng was horrified, he was not good at force, how could he resist Song Laosheng, the brothers of the Li family, perhaps only the grown-up Li Yuanji could compete with Song Laosheng, in a panic, Li Jiancheng fell off the horse Down.

"The old man looks at the mace." At the critical moment, Gao Chong and Jiang Baoyi stepped forward in time, and Jiang Baoyi leaned over to pick up Li Jiancheng. At the same time, Gao Chong stretched out a mace to block the knife in Song Laosheng's hand.

A loud noise echoed in Li Jiancheng's ears, until Li Jiancheng turned pale and hugged Jiang Baoyi tightly.

"Little thief, it's you again." Seeing that Gao Chong blocked the key point, Song Laosheng was furious, and with a backhand knife, he went straight to Gao Chong's neck.

"General go quickly", Song Laosheng's personal guards quickly stepped forward to catch Gao Chong, Song Laosheng didn't hesitate when he saw this, he beat his horse and left, Gao Chong knocked off this fearless personal guard with two maces Next, he went straight to Song Laosheng and chased after him.

"If Song Laosheng escapes, all previous efforts will be for naught," Li Yuan shouted, "Follow me to chase after you", after saying that, he took the bow and arrow from the side of the horse and chased after him, with Qian Jiulong, Li Sixing and others closely guarding him.
