43. Conquer Xue Rengao again and stalemate Gaoshu City

Last time, he said

In case of difficulty, the army will steal poetry again

Rebuke Lan Mou Wen Han to raise his ambition

It is said that since the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Li Shimin has been idle in the house, and it seems that he has been thinking about it behind closed doors, in order to cut off the mouths of others, and it seems that he is waiting for Li Yuan's punishment.

A few days later, the court and China set off waves again, it turned out that the court had received the matter that the soldiers of the Tang Army in the shallow water were beheaded to build a view of Beijing, and in an instant, the Tang Dynasty was filled with righteous indignation, and everyone was criticizing Xue Ju's father and son.

Wang Qi and others also seized the opportunity to attack Li Shimin, and suddenly the wind in the DPRK and China seemed to change greatly, and Li Yuan was forced to be helpless, and he was also angry and ordered to punish him. Liu Wenjing and Yin Kaishan's two leaders were dismissed for violating the order, and Liang Shi's remaining general soldiers were demoted and their salaries were deducted, while Li Shimin, the coach, only issued an edict and reprimanded him for various reasons.

Li Shimin seems to be obediently reprimanded at home, but in fact, there is nothing wrong with the fart.

He has been waiting for an opportunity, and recently received a report from the two states of Qining, although it was said that Xue Ju's father and son were stationed in Gao Shu and did not move, although Li Shimin did not know why Xue Ju did not move, but he absolutely believed that the war would not end so easily.

The day when Western Qin will move troops again is the time for him Li Shimin to rise again, and now he is a dormant dragon crossing the river, just waiting for the opportunity.

Sure enough, a few days later, the court received another bombshell news.

Xue Ju, the lord of the Western Qin Dynasty, died, the ministers of the Tang Dynasty were shocked, how did Xue Ju suddenly die after winning the first battle, and then explore the news, the power of the national war is strong, and soon, Xue Ju died of illness due to excessive worry, and the ministers cheered again, which is really God bless the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was summoned to the palace at the first time, and soon, the news that Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was awarded the marshal of the expedition to the west, and then led 50,000 soldiers and horses to crusade against the western Qin.

Li Shimin, who returned to the mansion to say goodbye, seemed to be heroic, high-spirited, and had the momentum of shame before the snow.

The majestic 50,000 Tang soldiers embarked on the road to Qizhou.

However, this seems to be Datang's last fight, and Datang, who has been injured for a long time, can no longer support a national war.

There are many people on the left and right in the hall, looking at Wen Youfang Du, Wu Youwei Chi Qutu and a few people, it can be regarded as the top camp of the generals and the ministers, and the last time Fang Du's two most relied on confidants and strategists were in the capital An's internal affairs, so that Yin Liu was able to disobey the military order to send troops, but this last fight was to pay all his strength.

"Dashuai, for some reason, since the news of Xue Juyi's death came out a few days ago, Xue Rengao actually withdrew from Gaoshu City, but retreated to Zheshu City" At this time, Liang Shi, the head of the march, came out of the column and played.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was also puzzled, it stands to reason that the city that was won by hard fighting has a reason to return, but now Xue Rengao has done this, and he still retreated very completely, leaving not a single soldier or armor.

After a long time, Fang Xuanling, the staff officer of the march, said: "I thought that Xiqin must be the new mourning of the lord of the country, and the army's heart was unstable, and Xue Rengao wanted to temporarily avoid the edge of our army before retreating to Zheshu City."

At this time, Nanningzhou Thorn Shi Hu Yan said: "I am afraid that there is an omission in the words of the head of the house, I think that Xue Rengao thinks that he is invincible in the world, a reckless man, and competitive, how can he avoid the edge of our army."

At this time, Fang Xuanling's friend confidant Du Ru said quietly: "Xue Rengao is not a man to worry about, but there is Hao Ying who is quite strategic, then Xue Ju was originally Hao Ming's subordinate, and then hijacked Hao Ying against Sui, but Hao Ying had no strange intentions, but helped him raise troops, and is now a pseudo-Qin Wei Qing, Xue Ju's father and son value him very much, and this retreat is probably admonished by this person."

After Du Ruhui's calculation, it is somewhat possible.

"Smack" Li Shimin slapped the desk. "It doesn't matter who he is, now that there is no owner of Gaoshu City, he won't take it at this time, let alone when."

It was ordered immediately

"Where is Qu Tutong?"

"The Last Will Be"

"You lead the front army of 10,000 horses and horses to quickly enter Gaoshu, pay attention to send more scouts, and after entering the city, you must also pay attention to whether there are holes in the ground, fire oil and dry firewood, etc., to strictly prevent fraud."

"The Last Will Be Ordered"

Li Shimin's arrangement is very appropriate, no matter how he robs the gateway to Gaoshu City first, he must guard against fraud.

Qu Tutong ordered to go out, and Wei Chi Jingde seemed to be in a hurry.

Li Shimin saw it in his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Jingde, you have your own arrangements", Wei Chi congratulated Zizi and responded.

In the afternoon, after Qu Tutong strictly investigated Gaoshu, Li Shimin led the army into the city.

After dismantling the corpse of the Tang army and burying it in Beijing, Li Shimin actively prepared for war.

At this time, he received an urgent report from the scouts, Xue Rengao's army was being dispatched, and a big war was about to break out.

The two cities are no more than 100 miles apart

The next day, Xue Rengao sent the general Zong Luohu as the vanguard of the front army and led the army to Gaoshu City.

The morning sun rises, and the sun's rays shine on this vast battlefield, which is very warm in late autumn and November, but the cold light of the blades is chilling.

"Li Tang's little son Li Shimin, my family's Great Qin Overlord is here, why don't you hurry up and surrender yourself, close the city and shrink your head in front of the turtle, aren't you afraid of being killed by my overlord before? Hahahaha", the Xiqin soldiers below also laughed, and their morale was great.

Wei Chigong's violent temper was so angry that he shouted, and asked for battle again and again, and so did the rest of the soldiers.

However, Li Shimin just squinted and was silent, but he was in a hurry.

At this time, Fang Xuanling appeased Wei Chi Gong and said: "General Wei Chi, this time you can't fight, the marshal has his own decision."

"Ah, you can't fight, why, everyone else has hit the door, and you don't fight, isn't it that the head of the house is afraid of seeing the blade?"

Fang Xuanling was speechless when he heard this, he was too lazy to worry about this black charcoal, and turned his head to look at the army under the city, but then the Western Qin army is really a strong army in the northwest, Fang Xuanling thought.

After a long time, Li Shimin retracted his gaze, turned to the generals behind him and said: "Our army was defeated last time, and was subdued by the construction of the capital view, and the morale was depressed.

Fang Du and the others nodded in agreement when they heard this.

The lieutenant Chi Gong was anxious, and just wanted to speak, Li Shimin shouted: "Order the whole army, if anyone dares to ask for battle, behead the public."

sneered at this Zongluo: "Jumping beam clown ear", turned back. Only the Xue army under the city continued to invite the battle, and there were a number of soldiers on the city tower who asked for battle.

In the evening, Xue Jun's interest retreated.

Li Shimin, Fang Du, and a few people climbed the city tower.

"Hey, the Xue army is in full swing, the military strength is outstanding, our army has been injured in many battles, and the sergeants are all recruits, this battle is difficult to fight?"

Li Shimin sighed.

"There is no need to be discouraged to be bold, the decisions made during the day are very appropriate," Fang Xuanling said.

At this time, Du Ruhui, who was good at making decisions, also said: "It is precisely because of this that the Xue army is far away from the nest and stays here for several months, the grain and grass must be insufficient.

Li Shimin also smiled, "Then I hope so."

In this way, the two armies were in a stalemate for more than a month, during which Zong Luoyu continued to invite battles, but Li Shimin just insisted on not fighting, and the siege was also a large number of casualties.
