Duan Zhixuan's body flew through the air, and immediately fell to the ground. The next moment, Duan Zhixuan only felt that under the force of the impact, his internal organs were in pain, especially his whole body seemed to be falling apart.
"Protect me, protect me!"
Duan Zhixuan didn't give up at this moment, he gritted his teeth, a carp stood up straight and wanted to run.
"Huh!"
The whistling sound came from behind him.
"Snapped!"
Suddenly, the hammer swept across from behind and hit Duan Zhixuan's ass. The force of this blow was not too strong, but under the force of the blow, Duan Zhixuan could no longer stand still, his body fell forward, and he fell to the ground.
Moredo's war horse had already stopped, and the hammer fell and rested on Duan Zhixuan's body. As long as Duan Zhixuan made any changes, he could kill Duan Zhixuan with a single strike.
"Take it!"
Moraldo ordered.
The accompanying cavalry rushed up and captured Duan Zhixuan.
Xue Rengui followed closely, with a smile on his face, he said: "Mo Ledo, congratulations, you caught a big fish this time. Duan Zhixuan was also a great general in the Tang Dynasty, but now you have caught him. "
Mo Le Duo smiled and said: "General Xue, although I have taken down Duan Zhixuan, it is also due to your contribution. If you hadn't cleared the way for me, resisted and shot Duan Zhixuan's guards, I would not have been able to take down Duan Zhixuan."
Xue Rengui smiled and didn't say any more.
He directly shouted that Duan Zhixuan was captured alive, and those who surrendered would not be killed, and ordered the Tang army to surrender. Originally, the Tang army had been fleeing continuously, and no one dared to resist anymore. Now that the news of Duan Zhixuan's defeat and capture came out, all the soldiers in the entire Tang army lost their fighting spirit and dared not continue to fight.
Many people knelt down and surrendered.
More and more people surrendered, causing dense numbers of Tang Army soldiers kneeling on the ground on the entire battlefield.
Even though some Tang soldiers were still evacuating, under the pursuit of the cavalry, these Tang soldiers who were about to escape were beheaded one after another. In the end, even if someone escaped, it was only a minority.
At this moment, the army stopped attacking and began to clean up the battlefield.
By the time the battlefield was cleaned up, it was almost afternoon time, and a little more than half a day had passed.
Xue Rengui came to Du Qi's side with an excited expression on his face, and reported: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we captured Duan Zhixuan, the chief general of the Tang Army, and captured 52,000 soldiers of the Tang Army, beheading nearly 21,000 people. , there are still thousands of people fleeing. Because there are too many people, and the current battle is urgent, we can no longer pursue them. As for our side, more than 7,600 troops died in the battle."
Du Qi nodded and said: "All the victories are registered in the register, and those who should be rewarded will be rewarded afterwards. Now, it's time for us to go back and meet Li Shimin."
Previously, soldiers came to report the news that Li Shimin was storming Niulan Mountain, intending to break the defense of Niulan Mountain. It's just that Xiao Yuanqi took advantage of gunpowder, landmines and grenades to keep the defense tight.
Even though Li Shimin's army tried to attack Niulan Mountain several times, they were all beaten down.
Du Qi was worried about the situation, so he decisively ordered the withdrawal of the troops. He was not in the mood to interrogate Duan Zhixuan for the time being. The army withdrew quickly, and when Du Qi started to evacuate to the front line of Niulan Mountain, the battle in Niulan Mountain was still going on. Landmines were arranged at the foot of the mountain, and the scattered distribution of the mines was extremely widespread, making it difficult for Tang Jun to break through even if he wanted to break through.
After discussing with everyone, Li Shimin prepared to break through from the mountain. Break through the defense on the mountain first, then take down this group of Xia Guo soldiers on the mountain, and then kill them to join Duan Zhixuan.
In Li Shimin's heart, he never considered that Duan Zhixuan would lose.
Anyway, Duan Zhixuan has 80,000 people.
The troops are not weak.
Even considering Duan Zhixuan's loss to Du Qi, Duan Zhixuan can also evacuate and retreat to the territory of Xia Kingdom. At that time, if Du Qi couldn't catch up, he would be in a dilemma. If Du Qi continued to chase, the front line of Niulan Mountain would definitely fall eventually. If Du Qi didn't pursue, Duan Zhixuan would have retreated.
Therefore, Li Shimin has enough confidence, and feels that it was an extremely wrong decision for Du Qi to abandon Guazhou City this time, and it laid the foundation for Xia Guo's defeat.
Today's Li Shimin has a serious expression on his face.
It's past the deadline now.
The sun is westward, although it is still early, with the weather in the Western Regions today, it will not be dark until evening. But after attacking for most of the day, a small top of Niulan Mountain was still unable to be taken down, which made Li Shimin a little impatient.
At the foot of the mountain, where Li Shimin commanded.
? Li Shimin looked at Li Jing, Wei Zheng, Changsun WujiThe others said: "The attack lasted for a long time, except for the exhaustion of our soldiers, but Niulan Mountain has not been taken yet. Tell me, there are other ways to break through Niulan Mountain."
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, there are not only gunpowder, but also grenades on the mountain, and there are also fierce Xia soldiers. In addition, there are bows and arrows to shoot. The most important thing is that they occupy the high ground and occupy a geographical advantage."
"We have to kill it, it's very troublesome."
"The only way is to rely on people to pile up. There is no other shortcut. Because we don't have the corresponding weapons, there is no other way. If the opponent is on flat ground, we can use the catapult and bow and arrow to suppress the opponent. But right now, Bows and arrows and catapults are not very effective, after all, the opponent has built trenches on the mountain, making our bows and arrows ineffective."
Changsun Wuji was quite helpless in the face of Niulanshan's first-line defense.
This is too hard to break.
Li Shimin said angrily: "If this wastes time, I'm afraid I won't be able to win Niulan Mountain today."
Changsun Wuji continued: "Although they can't take down Niulan Mountain today, their weapons will be consumed a lot in one day. As long as we continue to attack, the Xia soldiers guarding Niulan Mountain will have their weapons exhausted one day." .When the time comes, we will naturally win. Your Majesty, there is no other way but to attack violently."
"No, there is a way."
Li Jing suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has been thinking about a plan to crack it. Just now, the old minister thought of a plan."
Li Shimin said: "What strategy?"
Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng and others all looked at Li Jing together. They really have nothing to do with the current situation. Li Jing has a plan to solve it, that is the best.
A gleam of light flashed across Li Jing's muddy eyes, and he said, "The Xia soldiers on the mountain have dug ditches to hide in them. If we attack in an upright manner, we will suffer huge losses. If that's the case, why don't we dig a ditch, And this deep ditch is like a nine-curved sheep intestine, spiraling upward?"
After a pause, Li Jing continued: "As long as our troops are close to the opponent's position, then our soldiers will have less losses if they launch a surprise attack, and it will not be easy for the opponent to contain our offensive. This, precisely Our opportunity, this is what I just figured out."
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"
After Li Shimin heard it, he couldn't help dancing. He looked at Li Jing, with an expression of approval on his face, and said, "Duke Wei, just follow your plan, hurry, hurry, arrange it immediately."
"yes!"
Li Jing called the general to make arrangements.
When Li Jing made the arrangements, Li Shimin looked smug and said, "We have a plan to defeat the enemy in this battle. This time I want to see what the Du Qi defenders at Niulan Mountain will do." Hold your ground."
Changsun Wuji echoed, "Your Majesty's words are true. With Duke Wei's plan, this battle must be won."
Wei Zhengdao: "I don't know how far Duan Zhixuan's battle has progressed."
Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "No matter how far it goes, it's not a big problem. But it's still very difficult for Duan Zhixuan to win. As long as he can hold back Du Qi's army and prevent Du Qi from retreating back to Xia Kingdom, Will suffice!"
Li Shimin nodded and said: "What the auxiliary machine said is true."
At this time, the monarch and ministers are quite relaxed. Because they have a chance to win this battle, as long as they take down the defenders of Niulan Mountain, this battle can form a strategy to attack Du Qi.
Li Yuan just sat aside and never interrupted. The current owner of Datang is Li Shimin. He is too emperor, just be a mascot. But this time with the army, Li Yuan didn't think about commanding or fighting for anything, he just had a look.
When it came time for him to play, he went to see Du Qi and negotiate with Du Qi.
Today, it is not necessary for the time being. plum
From the bottom of his heart, Yuan Yuan hoped that Datang would win, so that he would not have to show up. When it really came time for him to come forward, the situation must have been extremely difficult. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
