Chapter 163 General Chen Rescue the King of Qin (10,000
Chapter 163 General Chen rescues King Qin
On one side are 100,000 soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, and on the other side is her younger brother Li Shimin. As the saying goes, the palm of the palm is flesh and the back of the hands is flesh, Li Xiuning was also difficult to decide for a while. One of her decisions can determine the life and death of the 100,000 soldiers in the Tang army, and the other decision can also determine the life and death of the Qin King Li Shimin.
The sky gradually brightened and the vision became wider. Dozens of Tang soldiers who were chased by the fire bulls and had no way to go to the ground were also ruthless. A person who looked like a captain shouted: "Damn it, don't run away, fight with them!"
However, at this moment, Wang Shiyun led the Zheng army cavalry to rush towards him. Wang Shiyun, like Wang Shichong, was good at using horse spears. Facing the Tang army soldiers opposite, he didn't even look at it. The horse spear in his hand, with the inertia of the sprint of the war horse, was a fatal blow. The Tang army captain was so scared that he did not dare to resist, so he had to give in. Unfortunately, the spear came too fast and stabbed his shoulder with a puff. The sharp blade of the horse spear stabbed into the bones.
The Tang Army Captain was dragged by Wang Shiyun amid the screams, and half of the Tang Army Captain's shoulder fell from his body, and blood sprayed out like a fountain.
Wang Shiyun didn't even have the intention of staying at all, and continued to rush towards the formation of hundreds of Tang soldiers. The horse spear in Wang Shiyun's hand danced like a serpent, one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with one with
A strong Tang army general roared and drove his horse to fight, and the Tang army soldiers around him shouted and cheered. Li Xiuning recognized the general. This person was no one else, but Shi Wanbao, the younger brother of Shi Wansui, one of the sixteen generals of the Sui Dynasty.
Although Shi Wanbao is no longer as brave as his brother Shi Wansui, a purple gold square halberd is also superb. If we only use martial arts, Shi Wanbao's kung fu can rank among the top twenty in the entire army.
When Wang Shiyun saw Shi Wanbao stand upright, he was shocked. When Shi Wanbao was in the former Sui Dynasty, he became famous all over the world with his bravery. Although they had never fought against him, they knew that this person was difficult to deal with.
Wang Shiyun's horse speed was too fast, so he didn't have time to think too much. The horse spear in his hand had to stab it out. Shi Wanbao shouted: "Good come!"
"Call..."
A golden sound rang out, terrifying everyone's eardrums.
The spears and halberds hit each other, and the two blades sank, but they actually blocked them! Wang Shiyun was secretly surprised that his thunderous attack was actually blocked.
The Tang soldiers around them cheered in unison, but the voices did not fall.
A Zheng army general lifted the thick mace and slashed it! This time the mace was aimed at Shi Wanbao's horse head!
At the same time, the horse died before he could even be scared and neighed!
The war horse died, and Shi Wanbao had no time to react, so he fell to the ground with the war horse.
"Click..."
Shi Mabao's thigh bones made a crisp sound, and white bones were exposed from the broken thigh. How could Wang Shiyun missed this opportunity? He copied the horse spear in his hand again, and the sharp blade passed through Shi Wanbao's throat and cut off his neck bone. As the horse spear continued to show signs, Shi Wanbao's head rolled to the ground like a ball.
Wang Shiyun took advantage of the situation to pull back the horse spear. At the moment the horse spear was pulled back, he raised Shi Mabao's head high. At the same time, there were more than 20,000 horse hooves behind him and more than 20,000 horse hooves. Shi Wansui's body, along with the man and horse, stepped on it into meat paste!
Li Xiuning looked at the Tang army soldier who was already in a mess and murmured: "Is there still a need to save him?"
Chen Ying understood what Li Xiuning meant at this time. In fact, it was not as Li Xiuning said. At least although the Tang army soldiers suffered heavy casualties, there were still 50,000 or 60,000 troops. If Wang Shiyun's troops were defeated at this time, at least half or even half of the lives of Tang soldiers could be saved. However, in front of his relatives and soldiers, Li Xiuning finally chose to save Li Shimin, her younger brother.
Chen Ying also understood Li Xiuning's approach. After all, people are selfish. In front of relatives and the country, few people can abandon private affairs due to public service.
"Target Longmen Canyon!" Chen Ying shouted: "The whole army sets off!"
Luo Shixin, Zhang Shigui, Shan Xiongxin, Guo Luo, Zhou Qing and other generals rode their horses towards the Longmen Grand Canyon.
...
In Longmen Canyon, the showdown between Wang Shichong and Li Shimin came to an end. Due to Li Shimin's resolute resistance, the casualties of the Zheng army's soldiers were not light. The cannibal demon army under Zhu Can had nearly a thousand casualties. However, it also began to cut off most of Li Shimin's troops. At this time, there were less than a thousand cavalry around Li Shimin.
"Damn it, the damn ghost car is here again."
Cheng Zhijie shouted, "Is it over?"
As he said that, Cheng Zhijie let out a fierce ruthlessness, holding a horse spear in his left hand, and stabbed a horse that had already been killed in the black armored cavalry. The war horse was in pain and released its four hooves and ran forward.
"Bang..."
With a muffled sound, the empty horse collided with the horses that Zheng Jun drove the chariot, but neither of the two horses ended up being beneficial. They collided and neighed, and fell to the ground. The Zheng army soldiers on the chariot were caught off guard and fell into a rolling gourd.
Li Shimin was already a little desperate, but when he saw this scene, he immediately had an idea. He patted Cheng Zhijie on the shoulder and laughed: "Zhijie, you are really a blessing!"
At this time, Cheng Zhijie, the lucky general, grinned in pain, and Li Shimin accidentally patted his injured shoulder.
Li Shimin hurriedly ordered: "Dropping off the horse, hurry up!"
As he said that, Li Shimin took the lead in jumping off the war horse, pulled out a horizontal knife, slashed the horse's buttocks with one knife, and drew a large bloody hole about one foot long.
The war horse suffered, let go of its four hooves and ran forward.
The Xuan-armored cavalry followed Li Shimin's appearance and jumped off their war horses and injured the war spurs. Because of the pain, these already exhausted war horses neighed and rushed towards the Zheng army's chariots. The war horses without cavalry were almost one-on-one, or two-on-one, knocked the Zheng army's chariots one by one.
Seeing that there were only one hundred remaining chariots being knocked over one by one, Wang Xuanying's face changed drastically and he shouted: "No, our chariot..."
Looking at Wang Xuanying and doing this, Wang Shichong couldn't help but feel disappointed.
You are not afraid of comparing goods, you are afraid of comparing people.
If compared with Li Yuan, Wang Shichong is not afraid of Li Yuan's other things, except for Li Yuan's background, such as war and governance methods. Wang Shichong is not afraid of Li Yuan at all, but Li Yuan gave birth to several good sons. Looking back at Wang Xuanying, Wang Shichong sometimes regrets it. Why wasn't he afraid of Wang Xuanying shooting on the wall?
Although Li Shimin has almost defeated all the chariot troops of Zheng's army, Wang Shichong is not worried at all. Is it meaningful to just put all the chariots he made together now?
If less than a thousand cavalry without war horses can break through under the siege of 50,000 or 60,000, they will be able to break out unless Li Shimin is brave enough to be overlord, but it is obvious that Li Shimin's skills are far from that of Chu.
The war horse fell to the ground, had a broken bone, or was hit and killed. Wang Shichong issued a very cold-blooded order to "release the rattan ball".
The generals who operated the catapult breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. Although the catapult was an artillery of this era, the artillery at this time was much more difficult than their peers in later generations. The artillery in later generations only needed to adjust the shooting elements and move the shells. If it was a self-propelled artillery and a cannon loading machine, it would save more effort. The catapult army not only needed to move the stone bullets, but also the kinetic energy generated by launching the stone bullets also needed these hard-working catapult operators to pull it out with force.
But it is different to launch a vine ball. This vine ball is actually a large ball woven with rattan. After the rattan dry, it is soaked in tung oil, and then stuffed it into turquoise grass. This is an excellent fire-attracting object and a sharp weapon for fire attack. The setting effect is much more powerful than that of rockets.
Two or three hundred chariots were densely packed in the canyon, like a pile of dry firewood.
“Huhu…”
The burning vine fireball fell on the chariots that had fallen into pieces, and soon ignited the chariots, forming a burning fire. If you use a vivid metaphor, there were less than a thousand people in Li Shimin at this time, like a sausage caught by a sandwich bread.
Looking back at the fire burning in the north and south at the same time, Li Shimin finally stopped holding any hope at this time.
In order to avoid the roasting of the flames, the remnants of the Tang army moved closer to Li Shimin. As Li Shimin's troops gathered, the higher the hit rate of the arrows fired on the top of the mountain and the stone bombs fired, especially the falling of a stone bomb.
Huge kinetic energy can often take away the lives of several or dozens of soldiers.
A huge stone bullet flew towards Li Shimin with a shrill sound. However, Li Shimin seemed to be stupid at this time, staring blankly at the sight of the stone bullet flying over, but did not dodge or avoid it.
If you observe carefully, you will definitely find that the future Tang Dynasty's Tianhe Khan was dead in his eyes at this time. Qin Qiong was also concerned about anything else and quickly flew up and kicked Li Shimin on the waist. This kick was quite light, kicking Li Shimin backwards for two or three steps. However, it was precisely because of these three steps that Li Shimin avoided the attack of the stone bomb in time, but a personal guard next to Li Shimin screamed shrillly.
I saw the stone bullet like a sharp knife, instantly cutting off his legs.
"God is going to destroy me?" Li Shimin lamented, and suddenly a fierce light burst out from Li Shimin's eyes: "Roar up and fight with Wang Shichong!"
Cheng Zhijie laughed and said, "Is this a man with my old Cheng's appetite? Is it bad luck to find Wang Shichong with me!"
But Li Shimin looked around, including the soldiers with minor injuries, and the entire battle was only 500 Xuan armored cavalry with combat power. More than 5,000 Xuan armored iron cavalry, and now there are less than 500 horseless cavalry left, which makes Li Shimin feel hopeless. At this time, he was like a gambler who was red-eyed, with only one thought left in his head, and he fought.
After piecing together, the five hundred remaining troops gathered together rushed towards the top of Longmen Mountain where Wang Shichong was located under the leadership of Li Shimin.
Wang Shichong looked at this scene and a cold smile appeared on his face: "I am so sad for Li Yuan, I want to send a black-haired man to another white-haired man."
The champion general Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Old Li Yuan won't feel sorry for him. He has so many sons, and there are so many more deaths!"
However, at this moment, the long-lost sunlight began to appear, and the morning sunlight emitted thousands of rays of light. However, just as the victory was only one step away, Wang Shichong felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
However, at this moment, a sound of horse hooves like thunder struck Wang Shichong's heart. Looking in the direction of the sound of horse hooves, thousands of cavalry in black clothes and black armor ran like thunder.
The first flag is to rush in the wind.
Looking at the big word "Chen", Wang Shichong felt a sensation in his heart and said in a lost voice: "Chen?"
