The damn one is already dead, and of course Wei Chigong can't do anything more. I only heard Wei Chigong shouting: "You Khitan dogs, dare to kill the generals under this general." Today, General Ben will crush your bones and scatter ashes. ”

Wei Chigong shook the eight snake spears in his hand, and killed them in front of the two armies. Although there are several generals on the other side, Wei Chigong is not afraid.

Wei Chigong came to the front of the two armies and only took the chief of the Duhuo department. Without saying a word, he exchanged hands with the other party. In only three rounds, he was whipped by Wei Chigong with a spear and knocked the Duhuo chieftain off his horse.

Then he rushed towards the other generals, only to rush and kill the other party in a row. There were only one or two people who ran back to the camp alive.

Then Wei Chigong waved his hand, and the army behind him came directly to cover it. The Khitan iron cavalry did not show weakness, and killed the Tang army. In an instant, a melee ensued between the two armies.

For a time, the two armies killed a dark flesh and blood. However, as the saying goes, a soldier is the soul of a soldier and a soldier's courage. Although the Khitan iron cavalry was brave and good at fighting, there was no commander to command, and they were soon defeated and fled.

Wei Chigong almost took the opportunity to seize the drawbridge, if it weren't for the thousands of arrows on the city wall. I'm afraid that this Khitan royal city was captured by Yu Chigong in a battle.

Wei Chigong had no choice but to order the troops to be withdrawn, and after returning to the Chinese army's big tent. Then he said to Li Zhi: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, there will be a big battle with the Khitan soldiers at the end of today." Although our army won in the end, it lost a lot of soldiers and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to punish the crime. ”

"Where will there be no casualties in the battle between the two armies, and now the vanguard general has returned with a great victory." Li Zhi opened his mouth and said to Wei Chigong.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the chief of the Ahui Department is loyal to my Tang Dynasty, and I also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to treat his soldiers well." Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi.

"Someone, pass on the military order of the palace, and summon the cavalry generals of Xi State to come to the big tent of the Chinese army. Hongu has something to say to them. Li Zhi nodded and ordered.

Not long after, the generals of the cavalry of Xi came to the big tent of the Chinese army. After giving Li Zhi a great salute to the monarch and ministers, he stood in place and waited for Li Zhi's speech.

Li Zhi stood up and said to the generals: "In today's battle, the chief of the Ahui tribe unfortunately died in front of the two armies. Bengong was very unbearable in his heart, how could there be no casualties in the battle between the two armies. ”

"It's just that the generals who harmed, now there is no main general. However, you can rest assured that from now on, all Xi cavalry will enjoy the treatment of Datang soldiers. For the time being, it was under the command of the vanguard general Wei Chi Gong. ”

"After pacifying the Khitan, the palace will take the generals to return to Chang'an in triumph. At that time, the palace will definitely report to the emperor and reward the generals for their meritorious deeds. The soldiers under the command of the generals will definitely have a place to live. ”

Hearing Li Tai's words, the generals hurriedly knelt on the ground again and thanked Li Zhi for his kindness. and declared his allegiance to Li Zhi, and was willing to serve Li Zhi as a saddle horse.

At this time, these more than 100,000 Xi cavalry were completely under Li Zhi's command. This made Li Zhi extremely happy in his heart.

In the next few days, Wei Chigong went to the Khitan royal city many times to fight against the enemy. But after the last loss, the Khitan king did not dare to send people to fight again.

As a result, the war between the two armies entered a stalemate. The Tang army besieged the Khitan army in the Khitan royal city. So that they do not have the slightest chance of breaking through.

……

"Your Majesty, it has been more than half a month since the Tang army besieged the royal city. And there is no indication that they have the slightest intention of besieging the city. It seems that the Tang army is preparing to trap us in the royal city. The chief of the Turbulent Department said to Brother Oga.

"King, what the chief of the mutation department said is right, we must find a way to break through, otherwise we will really lack the skills to return to the sky." Xiao Hetie opened his mouth and said to Brother Dahe.

"In that case, then give the order down and let the armies prepare. Tonight, let's take advantage of the night to sneak attack the Tang camp. Brother Ohga said after thinking about it.

Now this is the last resort of the Khitan, although this will be a great loss, but there is no other choice. Otherwise, you will really be trapped in this Khitan royal city.

……

That night, the Khitan army took advantage of the dark night and high wind to secretly open the gate of the Khitan King City and quietly leave the Khitan King City.

This time, the Khitan king divided his troops into four routes, and fought from the four city gates. However, the Khitan king is not ready to open on all sides. , because the attack on the south gate was nothing more than a feint.

After all, outside the southern city gate is the Chinese army of the Tang Army, and the defense here is definitely the tightest. So even if you really want to attack, you may not be able to get a bargain.

And the Khitan king's idea was very simple, that is, to pretend to attack the Tang army outside the south gate. Attract the defenders outside the other three gates to the south gate, and then take the opportunity to break the Tang army at the other three gates.

However, what the Khitan King never expected was that their every move had already been guessed by Xu Maogong. So what awaits them is not victory, but a net that has been laid long ago.

The first to find out that he had been ambushed was the chief of the Turk Division, one of the eight major tribes of the Khitan. He was in charge of the Tang Army's Central Army that feinted to attack the South City Gate.

However, when he launched an attack on the Tang Army, he was not hindered in any way. directly entered the camp of the Tang Army.

Of course, the chief of the Mutation Department also discovered the strangeness, just when he was just about to withdraw from the Tang camp. In the entire Tang camp, a raging fire broke out in an instant.

The Khitan army is all cavalry, and this war horse will be frightened when it sees the fire during the day. Not to mention the dark night.

So in an instant, the Khitan iron cavalry was in a mess, and they rushed left and right in the Tang camp, but they couldn't kill it. Because whenever they were about to break out of the Tang camp, they would be shot back by a rain of arrows like flying locusts.

Because the chieftain of the Tubian Department fell for Xu Maogong's empty city plan, he naturally did not succeed in attracting the Tang army from the other three city gates.

Therefore, the Khitan iron cavalry that rushed out of the other three city gates did not take advantage of the slightest. In the end, after paying a lot of price, he withdrew to the Khitan Royal City.

It's a pity that the chieftain of the Sudden Bow Department doesn't have this luck. Not only was he unable to escape back, but all of the Khitan iron horsemen he brought out were burned to death in the Tang camp.

……

"Thanks to the clever calculation of the military division, otherwise our army would have suffered an unprecedented blow tonight." Li Zhi looked at the camp that was burned to rubble, and said happily to Xu Maogong.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, after this stop last night. I'm afraid that the Khitan king will no longer dare to send troops easily. It is estimated that the next step is that he will hand in the book order. Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi with a smile.

Under normal circumstances, Li Zhi would have accepted the surrender of the Khitan king. Then let him pay tribute every year and become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty.

However, when Li Zhi sent troops, Li Shimin once deliberately explained. That is to make the Khitan and Xi Kingdom completely disappear between this world and the world.

Even the remaining civilians and captives who surrendered must all be brought back to Chang'an and handed over to Li Shimin to deal with personally.

Therefore, it was impossible for Li Zhi to accept the surrender letter of the Khitan king. Because the purpose of his visit this time was not to conquer, but to kill nakedly.
