I'm a marquis in Datang

kiss

The periphery of Yushan.

In the army under Du Qi's command, every soldier was already wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats to avoid the rain.As for the rest of the weapons, they were all covered with tarpaulins to prevent the cannons and elixir from being soaked by rain.Once the ammunition gets wet, it will have a great impact on the entire army.

It was raining heavily, and Du Qi was sheltering from the rain now.

Wearing a coir raincoat, he looked at the forest where the fire had been extinguished, with a smile on his face, and said: "The fire is extinguished after the heavy rain, which is also very helpful for us to attack Li Shimin. At least Li Shimin's many traps are useless. God will help me to attack Li Shimin this time."

Shangguanyi said: "Your Majesty, the heavy rain is still continuing, and now it is getting closer to the early morning. Although I don't know the time of this heavy rain, I think that once the rain subsides, we can march overnight."

Du Qidao: "You mean to attack Li Shimin overnight and catch him by surprise."

Shangguanyi said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

After a pause, Shangguanyi continued: "It's continuing to rain now. Even if Li Shimin is prepared, his defense will be weakened a lot. Especially after a big fire, Li Shimin's army's morale will definitely be damaged. So we immediately rushed to Attacking and killing Li Shimin in the mountains is bound to win the battle and win the final victory."

Du Qi nodded and said: "Then just wait, and prepare to attack after the rain becomes smaller."

Shangguanyi immediately gave orders, ordering the soldiers under Xiao Yuanqi and Xue Rengui to prepare for the battle and attack when the rain subsides.

Time passed little by little.

Two quarters of an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and the rain that fell by this time had gradually decreased.

It's not as pouring rain as before.

Another quarter of an hour or so passed, and the clouds and rain cleared up again.

A bright moon hangs across the sky, and bright rumored stars hang in the sky. The moonlight is bright and the night is hazy, which is very good.

Shangguanyi had been by Du Qi's side all the time, and said, "Your Majesty, the clouds and rain have cleared up, and you can march in. After this heavy rain, all the embers in the forest and the red-hot ground have been wiped out. , There is no more fire. Now, we can attack. Although it is not early in the morning, the attack will not affect it. Our army will encircle the past, and we will naturally find the place where Li Shimin is hiding. We will win this battle."

Du Qi nodded and said, "Let's send an order to attack."

"Yes!"

Shangguanyi was ready to make arrangements.

At this moment, I saw Xue Rengui stepping on the muddy road with one foot deep and the other shallow, and came galloping.The expression on his face was a little eager. When he got close to Du Qi, he directly reported: "Your Majesty, Li Shimin led the army to fight out. It is less than three miles away from us. The rain weakened earlier, and the minister arranged I went forward to explore the road first, but I didn't expect that I didn't go far, and I came across it."

Du Qi raised his brows, looking a little surprised.

Li Shimin actually took the initiative to attack.

You must know that the Tang side has fewer troops and is weaker. Li Shimin's army took the initiative to fight out, and something is wrong.

Could it be that they want to break through and leave?

The only thing Du Qi could think of at the moment was this possibility.However, Du Qi's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Since Li Shimin is going to kill, then take the initiative to fight. In this battle, we will completely destroy Li Shimin. Xue Rengui, you mobilize some soldiers under your command and go straight to Li Shimin's army. But the entire line of Yushan must be guarded by troops to prevent Li Shimin from attacking east and west and breaking through from other directions. As long as there are our troops under Yushan, it is absolutely impossible for the rest of Li Shimin's troops to break through from other directions. .We will win this battle."

Xue Rengui said: "I understand."

After speaking, he turned around and went to make arrangements.

Shangguanyi said: "Your Majesty, Li Shimin appeared in the direction of Xue Rengui. But now that Li Shimin's army has appeared, I think it is possible to mobilize Xiao Yuanqi's troops. Give Xiao Yuanqi peace

The platoon is the same, let Xiao Yuanqi leave some troops to block the front line of Yushan.Then, let Xiao Yuanqi lead his troops into the mountain to narrow the scope of the fight. "

"can!"

Du Qi nodded and answered directly.

Shangguanyi immediately made arrangements.

Not long after, the troops of Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuanqi were all mobilized. Except for the troops on the outer front line at the foot of the mountain, the troops of Xue Rengui and Xiao Yuanqi were all mobilized. This group of troops has more than [-] troops.No less than [-] troops remained on the front line of Yushan.Even if Li Shimin wanted to break out from other directions, it would be impossible.

After the army marched, Du Qi took Shangguanyi, Ma Zhou and Guan Zhilan to follow behind without any haste, and went to the battlefield.When Du Qi arrived at the battlefield, the army led by Li Shimin had already started fighting.Li Shimin's more than [-] troops met tens of thousands of Xia's troops, and the two sides had already started fighting.

Du Qi glanced across the battlefield and saw both sides fighting,

Li Shimin, who commanded the army, was also noticed.

Li Shimin's troops are a bit small!

Just a few thousand people.

Especially under the illumination of the surrounding torches, the fire blazes into the sky, dispelling the darkness and making the surroundings as bright as day.Even though the surrounding ground was burnt black, and because of the rain, the road on the ground was quite muddy.

Even so, it does not affect both sides of the fight.

On the side of the Tang army, every soldier regarded death as home, and they all charged bravely. Even though the number of the Tang army was small, these Tang troops were not afraid at all, and they fought with their lives.

Tang Jun's shouts of killing can be heard endlessly.

The soldiers on Xia's side were also jealous.Everyone knows that if Li Shimin is attacked right now, once Li Shimin is captured, they will be able to make meritorious deeds and be rewarded.So one by one kept making shots and going all out to attack.

The attack continues.

There were casualties on both sides.

Li Shimin didn't go up to fight in person for the time being, he is now in command.When Li Shimin was commanding, his eyes turned. Suddenly, his eyes fell on the rear of Xia Guo's army and saw Du Qi's commander-in-chief flag.Although he couldn't see Du Qi because of the distance, he knew Du Qi was coming as soon as he saw Du Qi's handsome flag appear.

Li Shimin's eyes are full of high fighting spirit.

This battle is a battle to the death.

Die without regret!

"kill!"

"Kill me!"

Li Shimin shouted.

After he shouted for a while, You Qi saw that his soldiers were blocked, and even more soldiers under his command were killed and injured, and they were surrounded by Xia Guo soldiers. He pulled out the long sword at his waist, and looked To Wei Shuyu who was on the side, he said, "Shuyu, you are in charge of this battle. I will lead the troops in the next fight."

Wei Shuyu said: "I take orders!"

Li Shimin held his sword and charged forward.because this is

In the mountains, and the road was muddy after it rained, it was impossible to use war horses, so both sides of the fight were infantry.

Li Shimin rushed forward with his personal guards, and within a short time, he had already reached the battlefield.Although he is getting older and not as brave as when he was young, his courage and fighting spirit are still undiminished, and he shouted: "Boys, kill!"

"kill!"

Li Shimin charged forward with his sword in hand.
