    "Report!"

    At this moment, another sentry came to Li Shimin's side.

    Li Shimin asked, "What's the matter?"

    The sentry reported: "Your Majesty, we arranged for people in Guazhou City to instigate a rebellion and attack the city gate, but were ambushed by Du Qi's army. Thousands of people were all slaughtered."

    Li Shimin's cheeks twitched.

    Unexpectedly, his plan failed again. In fact, this plan was proposed by Changsun Wuji last.  At that time, Li Shimin, Li Jing and others had already agreed on a strategy to deal with Du Qi. In the end, Changsun Wuji found Li Shimin alone, thinking that Guazhou City could still be used.

    Therefore, Li Shimin dispatched and arranged for the people lurking in Guazhou City to instigate the big clans in Guazhou City to gather more than a thousand people to rebel, intending to break the defense of Guazhou City, so as to close the city gate and block Du Qi and his party in the city.  outside.

    Changsun Wuji's strategy is not to attack food and grass, but to seize the city.  It's a pity that the private soldiers of these big families were all slaughtered when they met the people guarding the city, and none of them survived.

    Li Shimin asked the sentry to retreat, looked at Changsun Wuji and said, "Wuji, it seems that Du Qi has made sufficient preparations this time. It is impossible to start from Guazhou City. This battle is a battle."  Hard fight."

    Changsun Wuji said: "Even if the plan in the city fails, it will not affect the overall situation. Because this battle will ultimately rely on a frontal fight. Especially when we and Du Qi are spending our troops to fight, when Duan Zhixuan's army comes back to encircle, this battle  It's over. Du Qi has now left Guazhou City, even if he wants to retreat, it will be difficult for him to retreat if we catch up."

    In this battle, Changsun Wuji was actually very confident.

    He believed that Datang could win.

    Datang will definitely defeat Du Qi.

    Li Shimin nodded and stopped talking, just quietly watched the fighting continue.  Time passed by little by little, and when the evening approached Haishi, it was already dark at this time.

    In the weather in the Western Regions, the days are long and the nights are short.  At this moment, the 30,000 troops under Li Shimin's command had already shown signs of defeat, and began to retreat steadily.

    Li Shimin looked at Li Jing, at this moment Li Jing gave the order: "Send the order, withdraw the troops."

    "Clang! Clang!"

    When the gong sounded, Tang Jun began to evacuate.

    While Li Jing ordered the evacuation, he arranged for cavalry to stand by.  Once Xia Guo's army is about to pursue, the cavalry under his command will go up to stop this group of Xia Guo's army, and even give them a head-on blow.

    Du Qi noticed the retreating Tang Jun, and he looked at Xue Rengui beside him.  When the Tang army withdrew, Xue Rengui did not rush forward, but also ordered the withdrawal of the troops.

    After fighting for a day, I need to rest.

    ?Because this kind of fighting is extremely exhausting to oneself, the soldiers are already exhausted and need to rest and adjust their state.  The army withdrew and did not return for the time being, so they stationed outside the city.

    The army lined up.

    The soldiers in the army have begun to bury the pot to make food, and at the same time Xue Rengui and others have begun to count the losses.  When all the losses in this battle are counted, it will be the end of the day.  Xue Rengui came to Du Qi's camp and reported: "Your Majesty, in today's battle, we killed more than 10,000 people, but beheaded countless people. Among our soldiers, more than 2,000 were seriously injured, and there were 7,000 soldiers left.  I was slightly injured. The loss of the 30,000 soldiers who participated in the battle this time was still very large. Because the battlefield was not cleaned up, it is roughly estimated that the loss of the Tang army in this battle was at least 15,000, and even the seriously injured people on the other side were also  More. Overall, we won the day one."

    Du Qi said with serious eyes: "We suffered a lot in this battle during the day! Although such a fight is expected, but in fact, it makes people feel distressed."

    Xue Rengui said: "This is fighting on the battlefield, and casualties are inevitable."

    Du Qidao: "I know that fighting on the battlefield is inevitable, but it's not worthwhile to fight against each other. Especially the layout of the Tang army, obviously knows the power of our grenades and other weapons, so instead of defending, they attack directly, making  We are unable to use grenades and other weapons. This is exactly where Li Shimin's brilliance is, or the commander-in-chief Li Jing's strength. I don't think we can continue to fight the war of attrition right now, which is not good for us."

    Xue Rengui said: "How does Your Majesty plan to adjust?"

    Du Qi ordered: "Invite Shangguanyi, Laiji, and Su Dingfang to the tent, and then let Ma Yuan join in, and we will carefully discuss the next strategy. In a war, we must give full play to our strengths. If we  It is extremely detrimental to us to attack the other's strengths with our own shortcomings."

    "yes!"

    Xue Rengui immediately went to deliver the order.

    Not long after,All the people gathered together, saluted Du Qi and then took their seats.

    Du Qi looked around the crowd and said: "You have all seen the situation of the First World War today. Under the planning of the Tang Army, it is difficult for us to give full play to the advantages of our own weapons. Even though our soldiers' swords are sharper, the Tang Army is also a master of a hundred battles  , the fighting power is extremely strong, extremely tenacious, and it is not easy to defeat."

    "Even though we gained the upper hand during the day, we did not form a crushing situation from the beginning to the end. If we continue to fight the war of attrition, even if we win in the end, it will be regarded as a defeat. So right now, we must change our strategy and give full play to our strengths, so that  win this battle."

    Du Qi said: "Since Li Shimin's division of troops, we have been mobilized and are on the passive side. What we have to do now is to turn passive into active, and the rhythm must be under our control. Let's talk about our ideas and speak freely  .¡±

    Everyone fell silent when they heard the words.

    The situation is not optimistic.

    Ma Yuan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, if we want to give full play to our strengths, I think night battles can be adopted tonight. Bombard the Tang Army camp with artillery fire, and then we will enter."

    "It's useless!"

    Du Qi shook his head and said: "During the day, I observed the situation of the Tang army's camp from a distance. Because standing on a high ground, the Tang army's camp can be seen clearly, and the opponent's layout is very subtle."

    "The positions of the front battalion are almost all empty and empty. Even if we adopt a bombing strategy, it is not very useful. In the past bombing, the enemy wanted to resist us, and the troops gathered in the front camp, so the bombing was effective.  "

    "At present, the front camp of the Tang army is empty, and only a few soldiers are guarding it. It is clear that they are avoiding our gunpowder. Therefore, the gunpowder attack is ineffective. Once we forcefully attack and enter the camp, the Tang army will start a hand-to-hand battle with us. Under this situation, once again  Falling into a war of attrition during the day, the rhythm of the battle is still out of our grasp."

    Du Qi said: "So night raids are useless."

    Shangguanyi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have a plan."

    Du Qi said: "What plan?"

    Shangguanyi said in a deep voice: "Right now we are using Guazhou City as the rear, and then going out of the city to attack Li Shimin. As the king said, we are led by the nose by Li Shimin, and if we want to change the status quo and adjust our strategy, we must completely change the situation."  , no longer attacking Li Shimin, but instead attacking this large army in the territory of Xia State."

    "As long as this large army is wiped out, it will be easy for us to transfer our troops to attack Li Shimin. As for Guazhou City, the soldiers in the army have consumed a lot during this period, and they have opened warehouses to release grain to the people. Up to now, the grain left  Not much. Ask the lieutenant soldiers to bring food, and take away all the food that can be taken away.¡±

    "Currently, Datang's army has not returned to Niulan Mountain, and has never fought our army at Niulan Mountain. We bypassed Li Shimin's camp, rushed to Niulan Mountain, and wiped out the opponent to the west of Niulan Mountain."

    "As for Datang, if Li Shimin wants to lead an army to help, we can stop Li Shimin's reinforcements."

    "In the blocking war, you can use the terrain to counterattack."

    "It can take advantage of our weapons."

    There was a sharp look in Shangguanyi's eyes: "And when the time comes, we will switch from offense to defense, so we can focus on the other Tang army. Our advantage is defense. Only by switching from offense to defense can we maximize the consumption  The strength of the Tang army." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
