Chapter 304: Capture the Enemy
Xiazhou City is a standard military city, and like Chang'an, it was designed to fight wars.
The city is not very flat, and all the buildings and streets are in order.
In the center of the city, there are two wide avenues that lead directly to the east and west, north and south! This design allows the soldiers to rush to the four city gates in the fastest time.
At this moment, it was the time for the enemy army to attack the city. It's forbidden in the city!
Except for the soldiers, any idle people who appear on the street will be regarded as spies! Lawfully kill on sight! So now there is a puff of smoke and dust on the wide street, which is so attention-grabbing, Xiao Han, who is standing on a high place, sees it at first sight.
"Only one ride? What's going on? If there is no wolf smoke rising, could it be that something is wrong in the city? Li Shimin stood beside Xiao Han, staring closely at the street, his hands couldn't help but clench.
Under the city wall, the bearded overseer in charge of martial law in the city held a strong bow in his hand, stepped to the middle of the road in a few steps, pointed an arrow at the person, and snorted coldly in his heart: "It's just the opposite!" I'm not going to cure you for a felony today! You don't know the weight of military law!! ”
Riding the dust, the yellow dust is everywhere, and the distance of hundreds of meters is fleeting!
Facing the strong bow like a circle, the knight not only didn't stop, but flicked his whip again: "Report ~ a big victory for our army!" Capture the enemy alive!! ”
"A big win? Alive? The Overseer, standing in the middle of the way, was dumbfounded, allowing the arrogant knight to pass by. Haven't they all started fighting here yet? Where to catch the enemy generals? ”
"Big win! Victory! Capture the enemy alive! Several horses were seized! The galloping knight continued to roar and gallop, and before the people reached the city gate, the sound had already spread throughout the city walls!
“……”
Quiescence! There was silence! The city that was still noisy just now was like a radio with electricity unplugged, and only the noisy shouts and curses outside the city were still coming tirelessly.
"What did he say? Victory? Capture the enemy alive? As if he couldn't believe it, Xiao Han plucked out his ears, and subconsciously turned his head to ask Li Shimin.
Li Shimin nodded stupidly, and the look of surprise on his face was even better than Xiao Han! I know all about the dispatch of troops in Xiazhou City! When did you send someone to catch the enemy?
I can't even think of where this enemy will come from! Seeing that the messenger had dismounted in front of the city wall, Xiao Lizi immediately rushed down in three steps and two steps.
As soon as he pulled up the knight who was about to salute, Li Shimin asked him suspiciously: "What did you say?" Say it once! Who caught whom? ”
"King Qin! It was the people who went up the mountain to move the salt mine that caught Yin Shijie! ”
"Yin Shijie? Caught by the auxiliaries? Xiao Lizi only felt that his mind was in chaos, and he couldn't function normally!
"Yes, yes, yes!" The knight's face was full of red light, and he nodded his head quickly: "That's not all! They also captured dozens of enemy cavalry! ”
"How many infantrymen, captured a big general alive, and captured dozens of cavalrymen? Wait, a little dizzy...... "Little Lizi is completely confused now!"
How is this possible? Cavalry is almost the most powerful class in the world!
Except for siege battles, a squad of cavalry dares to attack five times the enemy position with itself! And you can win! How could such a strong soldier be captured? Even if you take 10,000 steps back, you can't beat it, won't you run? How can a two-legged one catch up with a four-legged one?
"Where's the people?!" Using up the last trace of clarity, Xiao Li Zi asked this most important question with red eyes!
The cavalry trembled a little in the face of the red-eyed little plum, and hurriedly pointed to the west and said, "It's at the west gate!" When I came, my brothers were busy tying up those people! ”
"You go to General Changsun! I'll see for myself! Throwing down these words, Xiao Lizi turned over on the cavalry's horse, flicked the horsewhip, and rushed to the west!
Xiao Lizi disappeared, Xiao Han hesitated slightly, then gritted his teeth fiercely, and shouted at Xiao Dong: "Go!" Let's go too! ”
The horseshoe-studded hooves of the war horse stepped on the stone pavement and splashed sparks.
The little plum on horseback feels like he's about to fly! The buildings on both sides moved quickly behind them, and only the sound of the swift wind accompanied them.
Galloping all the way, even the horses under their crotch became drenched in sweat. When you run to the west gate, you can see Lao Lu and they are in front of them. The horse no longer seemed to be able to withstand such a high-intensity run, and the front hooves suddenly bent, and the whole horse fell sideways.
The horse stumbled, but Li Shimin, who was straddled on horseback, was not surprised at all!
He was accustomed to the battlefield and had already experienced this situation several times, stepping on the stirrups with both feet, and the whole person rose into the air like a big bird, and he also pulled the reins of the horse in his hand to avoid letting the horse's head hit the stone directly!
"Boom......" The horse fell to the ground with a bang behind him, but Li Shimin had already flown forward several meters away with this force.
Take two steps forward to remove the force. Li Shimin didn't even bother to look back at the wailing horse kung fu, he rushed to the dumbfounded old Lu and them with an arrow step, grabbed Yin Shijie's head and took a closer look!
"Sure enough, it's him!"
After seeing this head clearly, Li Shimin couldn't hide the excitement in his heart at all, stretched out his hand and groped for a while, and in a moment he found a piece of seal letter, which read: "Deputy Marshal of Soldiers and Horses" A few big characters!
"Good, good! Who caught him! Holding the seal letter tightly, Li Shimin stood up excitedly and looked at the people around him.
Seeing this, Lao Lu hurriedly knelt down on his knees: "Back to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, it was caught by his subordinates and a group of brothers!" ”
"Well done!" Li Shimin excitedly patted Lao Lu on the shoulder several times, and said repeatedly: "You have made a great contribution this time!" ”
Old Lutzen smiled! * The heaviest rewards and punishments are clear, and the King of Qin has said that if he has made great contributions, it is by no means a matter of rewarding a few copper coins! I can't imagine that this time I and my brothers will make three turns, and from now on we will no longer be a lowest-level auxiliary!
After the joy of beauty, Lao Lu inadvertently saw Yin Shijie, who was still in a coma, and hurriedly asked Xiao Lizi as if he remembered something: "King Qin, you see that he is seriously injured, do you want to find a military doctor to take a look?" ”
Li Shimin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he held the seal letter at this time, and nodded without thinking about it: "Naturally!" He is much better alive than dead! You go to the army to find the best military doctor...... Forget it, I'll ask Xiao Hou to come over and show him later! These are captured horses? ”
"Yes! All the horses and people are here! ”
"That's good! Two of you will send all the horses to the east of the city! The rest of the people are here to watch over these people! Don't let them run! ”
"Whoa!"
Lao Lu and the generals of the West Gate city clasped their fists together! But now these surrenderers have also resigned themselves to their fate! Entered the city, run? Where to run?
Nodding to Lao Lu, Li Shimin took the letter into his arms, jumped on a red horse, and galloped towards the east of the city again!
didn't run far, Xiao Lizi saw Xiao Han galloping from the opposite side. didn't have time to stop to say hello, Li Shimin could only point behind him vigorously and motioned for him to hurry up over there. With Xiao Han here, he can also feel at ease.
