The most powerful film and television lottery

Chapter 496 499 Raid
Ba Fenghan was surprised and said: "How can the young commander be sure to win a battle?"

Shen Mu smiled confidently and said, "Just think about the following situation: we are backed by mountains, we have an endless supply of food, and we have a large number of vicious firearms that are powerful enough to destroy Li Shimin's entire army. so what?"

Ba Fenghan said in shock: "Yes! I almost forgot, do you mean the Tiancheng Gorge in the south of Xiangcheng, it is the most dangerous place, but where do the firearms come from?"

Ma Chang and others knew that Shen Mu was not talking nonsense, they all felt hopeful, and asked questions one after another.

Shen Mu explained: "Tiancheng Gorge is a gorge that we found in the high mountains south of Xiangcheng when we escaped from Li Mi and Qu Ao. One car can pass through the other. Outside the mouth of the gorge are endless rolling hills and mountains. The entire gorge of Tiancheng Gorge is separated by Yintan Mountain, which spans dozens of miles. As long as we stand firmly at the northern end of Tiancheng Gorge, the enemy will think that we are in a desperate situation. , but in fact we will have access later, and we will be able to hold Li Shimin's army firmly in check until rescuers come."

Bing Yuanzhen and others suddenly realized and were overjoyed.It's like sinking a boat in a raging sea and discovering that the land is only a few feet away.

Xiangcheng is located more than a hundred miles southeast of Luoyang. If they cross the Yishui River and march eastward for about [-] miles, they will reach Tiancheng Gorge. This move will be beyond Li Shimin's expectations. Maybe they think they have suffered a loss Crazy, throw yourself into Jedi.

Shen Mu continued: "As for the firearms, they are the booty that Ziling and I snatched from the Yingui faction. These are firearms from the south of the Yangtze River, and the Yingui faction was supposed to transport them to Chang'an to help Yang Xuyan and Yang Wengan for the opposite purpose. After Ziling and I obtained it, we hid it in a secret place by the bank of a tributary of the Yangtze River. If we had sent someone to unearth the firearms immediately after arriving at Tiancheng Gorge, half a month would definitely be enough time. We will be able to give Li Shimin was shocked."

Everyone's spirits were greatly lifted after hearing this, and they were relieved of their depression.

Ba Fenghan nodded and said: "We give up Zhongli and take Xiangcheng, what will Li Shimin think?"

Chen Laomou excitedly said: "Of course he will think that we are desperate and take the risk to attack Xiangcheng."

Ba Yegang said: "Perhaps he mistook us for attacking east and west, but actually wanted to break through Li Shiji's blockade and escape back to Chenliu."

Shen Mu said: "Whether Li Xiaozi thinks east or west, the key to our success now is whether we can reach Tiancheng Gorge. We must confuse the enemy in many ways to have a chance of success in this trip. What's your opinion?"

Wang Xuanshu said: "Xuanshu is more aware of the surrounding environment. If we go south along the west bank of Yishui River, there will be mountains and hills along the way. With Li Shimin's shrewdness, he will wait for us on the southern front road plain, and will not take risks in the mountains. Intercept. When we arrived at the southern end of Yishui River, we immediately changed our direction to the east and went straight to Xiangcheng, which was beyond the opponent's expectations. We passed Xiangcheng and did not enter. We pretended to go straight to Chenliu, so that the opponent hurriedly dispatched troops to intercept. At this time, we have just crossed Yintan Mountain and headed for Tiancheng Gorge, as long as we march quickly, we can delay it for ten days."

Shen Mu said happily: "Good plan! That's the decision. We immediately reorganized the army and boosted morale. I have never been more confident than now that I will make Li Shimin suffer a big loss, because the mourning army will win."

Everyone suddenly agreed.

……

The young marshals were scattered in the dense forests and mountains to rest, and sentries were set up at high places to monitor the distance.

They adopt the strategy of day and night, which is easy to prevent the enemy from chasing and attacking during the day, and it is good for secret marching at night.

Shen Mu also regularly releases Wuming to scout at high altitude, unless the enemy has the ability to hide, otherwise it is impossible to use a surprise attack.

Last night they rushed at full speed until they arrived at the mountains only a dozen miles away from the end of the Yishui River, but they also reached a dangerous area where they might be ambushed, so they had to recharge their batteries to cope with the journey after dark.

Shen Mu and Ba Fenghan released Wuming on a hilltop on the west bank of Yishui, Chen Laomou came to them and said, "I have a very ominous feeling, I think Li Shimin will not let go of the opportunity to intercept us at the southern end of Yishui."

Shen Mu smiled and said, "Does Mr. Chen have any good suggestions for this?"

Chen Laomou said: "I want to immediately cut down trees and build a bridge. After dark, I will build a pontoon bridge to cross the river quickly. When Li Shimin finds out, we are far away from Yishui, and he can only come from behind."

Ba Fenghan said in a deep voice: "Li Shimin should not be underestimated, maybe he already has someone watching us on the river, and he can come to attack us in time when we cross the river."

Chen Laomou said: "We can first send an elite team to swim across the river and find out the situation on the other side before making a decision."

Shen Mu agreed: "Mr. Chen's suggestion is very thoughtful. The matter of building the bridge will be handled by Mr. Chen. The most important thing is to keep quiet. If Li Shimin finds out that we are building a bridge, it will be very bad."

Chen Laomou smiled and said: "This is on the old man." He happily took the order and went.

Shen Mu turned to Ba Fenghan and said, "I have an important task, and I must ask your elder brother for help."

Ba Fenghan laughed dumbly and said: "Your business is my business, we are all brothers, why speak so politely."

Shen Mu was moved for a while, put his arms around his shoulders and said: "Then I won't be polite to you anymore, please ask your brother to cross Yishui immediately, rush to Chenliu at full speed, and inform Xingzhi of the situation on our side, He tried his best to stick to Chenliu until Song Que's army came to help him. Only your elder brother has the ability to break through Li Shiji's blockade, no one else can."

Ba Fenghan said relaxedly: "It's that simple? Why don't you let me pick up the firearm along the way, and then come back from the other side of Tiancheng Gorge to meet you, it will save ten days of work, and I guarantee that Tang Jun will not notice."

Shen Mu rejoiced and said: "This is more ideal. Xingzhi will arrange a spaceship and enough manpower for you, and it is best to bring food and supplies at the same time. Then we should be more confident in dealing with Li Xiaozi."

Ba Fenghan cast his eyes on the other side, and said calmly: "Frankly speaking, I am full of wimps in my heart now, as long as I can hurt Tang Jun, I will do it. Not only for you, but also for myself. Now I will immediately Go, if there are Tang Jun spies on the other side, I will stop by and clear them for you. Brother! Goodbye Tiancheng Gorge, take care!"

After Shen Mu told him carefully where the firearm was hidden, he hugged his shoulder tightly, keeping everything in silence.

Ba Fenghan patted the Stealing Heaven Sword on his back, jumped a few times, didn't enter the river, and just dived from the bottom of the water to the opposite bank without splashing the slightest splash.

As night fell, Chen Laomou immediately ordered people to build a pontoon bridge, and 5000 people quickly crossed the river, and then demolished the pontoon bridge, hoping to go east, and after rushing for nearly [-] miles in one breath, the people were exhausted.

Shen Mu chose a highland densely covered with wild trees, felled wood and made a fence, which became a primitive but effective defensive measure, and then ordered the whole army to light a fire on the hilltop to cook food and have a good rest.

Shen Mu, Ma Chang, Wang Xuanshu, Ba Yegang, and Bing Yuanzhen went to another mountain in the west of the camp, released Wuming, and observed the movement in the direction of Yishui.

Leaving the crisis-ridden Iroyanohara, and even farther away from the sad place of losing soldiers and generals, everyone felt relieved; although the crisis has not passed, the mood is already very cheerful.What's more, having a clear coping strategy and goals is certainly not the same as the depression of the new defeat.

Ba Yegang said: "Our move must have exceeded Li Shimin's expectations, making his original plan useless, so until now he has not been able to catch up in time."

Bing Yuanzhen nodded and said, "At least you don't have to live in the shadow of the Tang army's navy threat every moment."

Shen Mu looked at Wuming's activities in the sky, but what he thought about was Yang Gongqing on the other side of Yishui, where the bones were buried, and he was speechless.

Wang Xuanshu said: "Li Shimin will think that we have nowhere to go, so he will venture to Chenliu; in this case, if he informs the defenders of Xiangcheng, he will lead the army to chase after us, and when we are exhausted, we will attack back and forth. , can easily defeat us."

Ma Chang agreed: "Mr. Xuanshu's guess is not right, but it is not far away!"

Wang Xuanshu smiled wryly and said: "I'm no longer a son, calling me Xuanshu will make me feel better."

Shen Mu put his arms around Xuan Shu's shoulders, and said lovingly: "You are our beloved little brother. Alas! Things have developed to this point; no one expected it."

Wang Xuanshu said dejectedly: "I hope Li Yuan can treat my father well!"

Shen Mu sighed with him, shook his head and was speechless.

Ba Yegang exchanged glances with Bing Yuanzhen, and was taken aback by Shen Mu's expression.

Wang Xuanshu's lips trembled slightly, and finally couldn't help asking: "Young commander doesn't seem to like my father."

Shen Mu said in a deep voice: "Xuanshu, you must face the cruel facts with strength, just like facing life and death on the battlefield, everyone may encounter unexpected disasters."

Ma Chang was surprised and said: "Dong Shuni is now deeply favored by Li Yuan. In order to please my concubine, Li Yuan will not use harsh hands to deal with Xuanshu's surrendered clansmen, right?"

Shen Mu said: "I hope my guess is wrong. Because the problem is not Li Yuan, but the man in the magic sect who manipulates Li Clan behind the scenes. The so-called multiple incense burners have many ghosts. Ni is extremely influential, so Yang Xuyan and his generation will never allow such a person to enter Chang'an safely."

Wang Xuanshu was stunned and said, "How could Dad know about the Demon Sect?"

Shen Mu said with a headache: "It's a long story, I'll tell you later, but I hope your father is lucky, but Xuanshu, you should prepare for the worst in your heart. Fighting for world hegemony is such a cruel and ruthless thing. See Unnamed Eagle Dance, Li Shimin's fast cavalry troops are coming from the southwest all over the mountains and plains, look at the momentum, Li Shimin will immediately attack us and try to trap us on the top of the mountain, let's go back and get ready."

Everyone agreed with a bang, and their morale was high.

Shen Mu tried his best to command the young generals to guard the hilltop, using the barriers made of trees to repel wave after wave of cavalry troops of the Tang army attacking from all directions. Both sides suffered casualties, but the main attacking enemy suffered casualties. It was more serious, but the enemy finally formed a siege.

The 1 vanguard troops of the Tang cavalry, led by the general Wang Junkuo, immediately swamped their troops and stormed the hilltop position as soon as they arrived. defend the battlefield.

The enemy retreated like a tidal wave amidst the sound of horns, reorganizing their formation.

Shen Mu put away his broken bow and said in a deep voice, "Li Shimin is here!"

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the mountains and forests in the distance to the southwest were dusty, and the flags were faintly flying.

All the soldiers around felt their hearts felt like a lead, and they felt oppressed by the difficulty of breathing.

Shen Mu asked in a deep voice: "How many arrows do we have?"

Chen Laomou replied: "It is enough to last until sunrise tomorrow."

Shen Mu turned to Ma Chang and said, "How is the situation on the way?"

Ma Chang replied solemnly: "Wang Junkuo sent a cavalry team of about 3000 people to deploy on a mountain about half a mile away from us to the east. If we want to leave, we must first pass through this team."

Ba Yegang said worriedly: "If Li Shimin's army arrives, he will immediately increase the strength of that side, and our chances of escape will be even slimmer."

Shen Mu smiled and said: "Good boy! Li Shimin must have seen through our intentions, so he came here with such a thunderous momentum, with a clear sword and a bright spear. Fortunately, we not only have the right location, but also the right time. When Li Shimin arrives, it will be dark. That would be our only chance of escape."

Bing Yuanzhen said: "Young commander, please give instructions!"

Shen Mu calmly said with confidence: "The northeast wind is blowing now. We divided our troops into two teams, each with 600 people. When Li Shimin arrived, while their position was not stable, one team went to the northeast to break through. We set fire to the forest along the way, while the other team acted accordingly and took charge of the rear. With the cover of the prairie fire and smoke, and the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the enemy was exhausted, we would be able to leave safely. Otherwise, if we stick to the mountain, we will If the enemy cuts down the nearby forests, we will become a lone army exposed to the enemy's siege, and we will lose the chance of life forever."

Only then did Ma Chang realize his so-called advantages in the right time and place, and his confidence doubled.

Shen Mu ordered: "The breakout army is commanded by Ma Chang, with Generals Ba and Bing as deputy, Xuan Shu and Duke Mou stay by my side, and take the responsibility of the rear with me."

All the generals agreed in unison and took orders to leave.

In the end, Chen Laomou and Wang Xuanshu were left, and Shen Mu said harshly: "Li Shimin wanted to get rid of Shen Mu, but he missed the opportunity. I will use Turkic tactics to deal with him to the end, and let him know that I, Shen Mu, are not good. Bullying."

Both of them could hear his deep annoyance towards Li Shimin, and there was no love between them.

Wang Xuanshu said: "What is the tactics of the Turkic people?"

Shen Mu's eyes were full of murderous intent, but his tone was surprisingly calm, and he said spontaneously: "The Turkic people are fighting a war of attrition that comes and goes like the wind. They come by surprise, attack those who are unprepared, come suddenly, leave suddenly, and can show their will in the wilderness." Unexpected destructive power, even more able to win with few. From here to Xiangcheng mountains and plains, it is the best place for the Turkic tactics. The confrontation between the two armies is like a confrontation between masters. No matter how strong the opponent is, as long as I can Take the initiative, avoid the strong and attack the weak, what is Li Shimin afraid of? Li Shimin is famous for defending, but I am good at attacking. Now I turn around and become him to attack me. "

Both Chen Laomou and Wang Xuanshu admired it in their hearts. It would be a strange thing for others not to lose their fighting spirit and run away with their heads in their hands after a miserable new defeat and the current situation.Only Shen Mu remained resolute and fought back tenaciously without fear.

Shen Mu let out a long breath and said, "Li Shimin is here!"

Li Shimin's main force of about [-] cavalry troops slowly poured into the mountain plain to the west of Shen Mu's hilltop position, and deployed in formation. The three cavalry troops holding torches came meandering like three fire dragons, illuminating the sky red. The prestige of the army really makes people feel chilling and timid.

Li Shimin left the home team, surrounded by more than a dozen generals and [-] Xuanjia fighters, went straight to the front line, making people feel that he would go off to fight in person and confront Shen Mu head-on.

Shen Muzhuo stood outside the gate of the village, watching Li Shimin's approach from a condescending height, and two generals Ma Chang and Ba Yegang stood on both sides.

There was a complex in Shen Mu's heart that even he couldn't understand. From the first acquaintance to the present moment, after so many years of entangled relationship, he and Li Shimin finally reached an oath to see who is the king and who is the king. At the moment of defeat, there is no buffer room in the middle, and no one can change the situation.

Li Shimin has the upper hand now, while Shen Mu is being chased and beaten, but he has to turn this situation around.

There is no moment when Shen Mu desires and needs a victory more than this moment, creating that possibility out of the impossible.

Shen Mu has never admired Li Shimin more than now, because he is indeed a great opponent.

From the beginning of the Battle of Cijian to the Battle of Breakout, Li Shimin was like the most powerful magician on the battlefield, teasing the enemies including Shen Mu in the palm of his hand.

When Dou Jiande was executed in public by Li Yuanji in a cruel and cruel way in front of his eyes, Shen Mu immediately became a Buddha and suddenly realized the true meaning of swordsmanship and military art on the ruthless battlefield.

Li Shimin finally arrived at the front line, and after whispering a few words with Wang Junkuo, he ran out of the crowd and ran straight to Shen Mu's foothold. Zhangsun Wuji, Yuchi Jingde, Pang Yu, Luo Shixin and other generals and more than a hundred Xuanjia soldiers hurried Follow left and right.

Shen Mu almost took out the sun-piercing bow from his bosom and shot it from a long distance, but remembering that we are friends after all, and the other party seemed to have something to say, he had no choice but to suppress this tempting urge, and raised his hands first. Followed, took a few steps forward, and laughed at Li Shimin who was galloping down the slope: "Brother Shimin came here so tired that he didn't sleep well, I'm really sorry."

Li Shimin reined in his horse and said with a wry smile: "Why did we get into such a mess? Please forgive Shimin, the young commander, for not being able to stop talking nonsense. Closer to home, the young commander's decision to send the south to the east is indeed beyond the expectations of the people of the world. It's amazing, so I decided to leave the young commander here at all costs."

Shen Mu was surprised and said: "Since this is the case, why is brother Shimin still talking nonsense? Why didn't you immediately issue an order for a full-scale attack."

Li Shimin smiled slightly and said: "Just listening to these two words, it seems that the young commander has a plan in mind. He must take the risk of attacking Xiangcheng, let alone rush to Pengliang. Frankly speaking, no one has ever been as good as the young commander. It makes the people of the world feel headache and trouble."

Shen Mu laughed and said: "Brother Shimin, please don't praise me. As for what magic weapon my little brother has, I'm afraid everyone will have to wait and see! If brother Shimin has no other constructive words, I'll hurry on my way in the dark!"

Li Shimin frowned and said: "Now the wind is blowing from the northeast. If Shimin's troops behind the young commander set fire to the forest, the thick smoke from the fire would sweep across the young commander's hilltop position with the wind, cutting off the young commander's way to escape to the east. At that time, Shimin Then divide the troops into three groups, attack the young commander's hilltop position from the front and two wings, and burn down the young commander's simple defense facilities with rockets, how will the young commander deal with it. Are these constructive words?"

Shen Mu's heart sank when he heard that, Li Shimin's move was indeed extremely cruel, which made the escape plan he originally thought of no longer feasible.
