Sui and Tang Dynasties: Engagement to Li Xiuning, start with heavy snow dragon ride

"Mr. Tang?"

Gao Deru exclaimed.

"Yes."

Li Yuan replied lightly.

"What do you mean by that?"

Gao Deru looked at the soldiers and horses below, and asked very puzzled.

"Isn't it obvious enough?"

Li Yuan asked back.

"You rebelled?"

Gao Deru was sweating coldly on his forehead.

"Yes, the Sui Dynasty was ruthless and cruel, so how can we not rebel?"

Li Yuan asked back.

"I don't want to talk nonsense with you, so I quickly opened the city gate and surrendered, and gave up this Xihe County."

He continued.

"I didn't expect the Li family in Longxi to turn against it?"

Gao Deru murmured.

The more shocked, the more relieved Li Yuan was.

It seems that the Sui family didn't know anything about the Li family's rebellion.

"My lord, the army of Xihe County can't defend it."

Wang Yao said.

"Can't you get out of your body?"

Gao Deru asked.

"Yes, the gate of the back city has been opened, and the Li family can break out with a small force."

Wang Yao said.

After hearing this, Gao Deru nodded heavily.

If he hadn't received Yang Zhao's order, he would have chosen to stick to Xihe County.

Even if the city was sealed off and refused to fight, he still had to defend it.

But after receiving Yang Zhao's order, abandoning Xihe County was just following the order.

Although Gao Deru didn't know what Yang Zhao was going to do.

"Raise arrows to cover, and concentrate our forces to break out from the rear city gate."

Gao Deru quickly ordered.

"promise."

Wang Yao took the order.

When Li Yuan was about to say something, Wang Yao had already ordered the arrow to be released.

"Wow wow..."

A strong wind blew up, and countless arrows fell like raindrops.

Tang Jun below bears the brunt.

"Protect Duke Tang!"

Liu Hongji shouted loudly.

Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng rushed to Li Yuan's side, and Duan Zhixuan even rushed to Li Yuan's front to block the countless arrow rain.

Just at this moment, Wang Yao and Gao Deru came directly to the back city gate and ordered people to open the city gate.

The gate of the city opened, and Gao Deru and Wang Yao led the main force and killed them directly.

This series of changes came so fast that Tang Jun was caught off guard.

In addition, the defenders of Xihe County concentrated their forces to break through the siege, and rushed out in an instant.

Seeing that the rain of arrows had stopped, Li Yuan also ordered to storm the city.

Originally, they thought it would take a long time to break through the city gate and enter. Who would have thought that the city gate would be broken open without even half an hour.

"what?"

Li Yuan was dumbfounded.

"kill!"

Liu Hongji personally led the troops and rushed into the city gate.

Li Yuan, Li Shimin and others followed closely behind.

Chapter 191 Li Shimin Desperately Needs a Victory to Prove Himself

"This..."

After rushing into the city gate, Liu Hongji was surprised by the scene inside.

There were not many Sui troops, and they all ran towards the rear gate, which is the west gate opposite to the attacking gate.

Tang Jun quickly captured some of the Sui Jun who wanted to escape.

"what happened?"

Not to mention Liu Hongji, even Li Yuan was instantly dumbfounded when he saw the scene in the city.

"Subordinates don't know."

Liu Hongji stammered.

He is also considered a veteran with a lot of experience, and he rarely sees such a scene.

You must know that not long ago, the defenders of Xihe City took the initiative to attack with bows and arrows.

"kill!"

On Li Yuanba's side, he went madly to kill the remaining Sui army.

He didn't care whether these Sui soldiers were captured or not.

Seeing this, Li Shimin didn't stop him.

Li Yuanba has been suppressing the fighting spirit in his heart, and sometimes he can't suppress it anymore, and he really wants to release it.

"Duke Tang!"

When everyone was in a daze, Wang Junlang, one of the generals of the Li family, walked quickly from outside the city gate.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yuan asked.

"Gao Deru and guard Wang Yao fled from the west gate, taking away the main force."

Wang Junlang replied.

In other words, Gao Deru and others completely abandoned the city and fled.

The point is, there hasn't been an offensive and defensive battle yet.

"This guy is so timid, he is still the county seat of Xihe County?"

Li Yuan's face twitched violently.

This kind of behavior of fleeing without fighting is no different from that of a coward.

"Mr. Tang, this is not surprising. After all, our army has a lot of strength, and Gao Deru knows he can't defend it."

Liu Hongji said suddenly.

"Once the offensive and defensive battle starts and our army completely surrounds Xihe City, Gao Deru will be unable to escape."

Liu Hongji made a special explanation.

"good."

Wang Junlang, Duan Zhixuan and others echoed.

"It's wrong."

Only Li Shimin frowned.

Throughout history, such people are rare.

Even if Gao Deru managed to escape, he would be punished by Tai Sui in the end.

That being the case, it is better to surrender to the Li family directly. Is it necessary to abandon the city and flee back to be punished by the Sui Dynasty?

"Father, the child feels something is wrong."

Thinking of this, Li Shimin took the initiative to speak.

"Is there something wrong with the scriptures, and the result is not obvious?"

Li Yuan asked back.

He was so disgusted with Li Shimin that he didn't even want to listen to him.

"Father, how many generals and magistrates have been like this since ancient times?"

Li Shimin continued to ask back.

"Are you questioning me?"

Li Yuan was furious.

Li Shimin's move really violated a taboo.

Singing against Li Yuan in front of everyone will cause turmoil in the army.

The commander-in-chief of the army is beyond doubt.

"I..."

Li Shimin also realized this, and was instantly dumbfounded.

"Forget it, it seems that the right-leading commander-in-chief is not suitable for you, so you can go and be a lieutenant colonel."

Li Yuan said lightly.

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin froze on the spot as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

"Duke Tang!"

The rest of the people also opened their mouths one after another, ready to intercede for Li Shimin.

The official position of lieutenant colonel is too low for Li Shimin.

"Who dares to persuade again?"

Li Yuan shouted angrily.

When everyone heard the words, they all shut their mouths.

If he continued to intercede, he would definitely end up in the same fate as Li Shimin.

"Second brother, what's the matter, what's the difference between the captain and the governor?"

Li Yuanba asked curiously.

"No, there is no difference."

Under Li Yuan's stern gaze, Li Shimin replied with a wry smile.

"Clean up the battlefield quickly, and then come to the county to discuss important matters."

Seeing this, Li Yuan waved his sleeves and said.
