    ?

    In mid-October, the weather is getting cooler and cooler.

    After everything was arranged in Du Qi's camp, he was already in full battle, just waiting for Li Shimin's army to arrive.

    On this day, it was almost noon.

    Du Qi got the news that the army led by Li Shimin was approaching.  Du Qi immediately took his people to the gate of the camp to direct.  About a quarter of an hour later, Li Shimin's army had already moved closer.  This time, Li Shimin didn't go forward to speak out in person, nor shouted anything, but directly gave the order to attack.

    After all, Li Shimin had already made arrangements before, so the army under his command was divided into eight teams in an orderly manner, and quickly moved around the camp. After forming an encirclement circle, the eight armies launched an attack at the same time.

    "kill!"

    The sound of shouting and killing was everywhere.

    A branch of Tang army soldiers launched an attack.

    Li Shimin even beat the drums himself to cheer for his soldiers. With the sound of the drums, the whole camp was surrounded by flames of war, and waves of Tang troops continued to attack.  However, Du Qi didn't panic in such a scattered attack.  Because Du Qi's army in the camp responded quickly, and then scattered to block the attack.

    There are not many troops in charge of blocking. Except for the troops at the gate of the camp, the troops in other directions are only 3,000 soldiers in each place, and all of them are blocking.

    Three thousand versus twenty thousand, the strength is very different, but there are fences around the camp, and the Tang army did not rush in immediately.  Three thousand soldiers quickly built fortifications, except for the mortars one by one in place, and began rapid bombing to block the attacking soldiers of the Tang army.

    After the war started, it was still a battle of defense.

    Du Qi was not worried about Li Shimin's arrangement.  Because Li Shimin seems to have chosen a clever attack method, and even according to Li Shimin's attack method, as long as one or two breakthroughs are made, then the troops under his command can enter the camp, and then spread like a spark in various places.  An offensive was formed everywhere, and Du Qi should be attacked from inside and outside.

    The problem is that Li Shimin's army must be able to break through the line of defense, otherwise nothing will be possible.  In particular, Li Shimin's arrangement is actually similar to Li Ji's in Jiuquan.

    When Li Ji was in Jiuquan, he divided his troops to break through, but he was blocked so much that his entire army was wiped out.

    Now Li Shimin's army is either breaking out or attacking, but the offensive is not easy to form. Facing the constant bombardment and the defenses formed everywhere, it is impossible to quickly break through and enter the camp.

    The defense continues everywhere.

    Du Qi still sat in the front battalion, commanding calmly.

    To this day, Du Qi's troops around him are still sufficient. In addition to the troops dispatched to resist, in fact, there are more than 70,000 people under his command who can be dispatched.

    So Du Qi didn't panic at all.

    Du Qi was not in a hurry, but Li Shimin was in a hurry. Apart from more than 10,000 people around him, the rest of the troops had already been dispatched to attack, and all the troops under his command were equipped with gunpowder.  The gunpowder equipped here is not used to kill the enemy, but to blow up the fence so that it can enter the camp.

    Li Shimin waited for the fight to last for an hour, and none of the people sent out reported the victory, so he became a little nervous inside, and directly passed the order down, ordering the troops everywhere to attack with all their strength.

    It's just this urging order, which has little effect.

    Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others beside him, and said: "Now we want to encourage the soldiers to break through Du Qi's defense, what should we do now? You have a plan to defeat the enemy."

    A bright light flashed across Fang Xuanling's eyes, and he said: "Your Majesty, the only way to increase the rewards is to be rewarded with great rewards. With great rewards, there must be brave men. Only by motivating soldiers with heavy rewards can there be a chance of breakthrough and success."

    Wei Zheng echoed: "Your Majesty, I second the proposal."

    The rest of the people also agreed.

    Today, the people who stay with Li Shimin are mainly civil servants, and the military generals have been scattered to direct the war.

    After listening to everyone's words, Li Shimin clenched his hands into fists, then loosened them immediately, and ordered: "I have ordered you to attack Du Qi's camp in this battle, and the first to lead the army to break through the defense line and enter Du Qi's camp, the Lord will give you the Duke of the Founding Kingdom!"  position, and the rest will be promoted to three ranks."

    "If you enter Du Qi's camp, kill the generals under Du Qi's command, or kill the cabinet officials under Du Qi's command, the chief general will be crowned the king of the county, hereditary, and the rest will be promoted to three ranks. If there is beheading or  Whoever captures Du Qi alive will be crowned king directly, hereditary will not be replaced, and the rest will be promoted to three ranks as non-commissioned officers."

    Li Shimin said: "Inform the lieutenant immediately."

    The orderly made arrangements immediately.

    Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and others, each faceThe expression on his face was full of admiration, because this time Li Shimin's award was really generous. You must know that after Li Shimin ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he adjusted the titles of the officials in the world.

    In Li Yuan's time, let alone a duke, there were many kings with different surnames.  After Li Shimin's adjustment, there are very few founders, and Du Qi is the only king with a different surname. Most of the other clans are county kings, and it is impossible to be princes.  But this time, Li Shimin gave away a lot of titles, bestowing many titles, which is extremely rare.

    As the order was conveyed, the soldiers of Datang became excited.  Because this promotion is not only for the main general, but also for all soldiers, everyone is excited and keeps attacking.

    The Tang army's offensive was extremely ferocious for a while.

    The situation that was originally held firmly, at this moment, was almost impossible to hold.

    Du Qi still didn't panic at all, he dispatched troops again, and again dispatched 3,000 troops to various places.  With the new fresh troops intervening in this battle, the originally precarious defense became stable again.  Even though the Tang army was attacking like a tide, the defense line of Xia Guo's army was well guarded, temporarily stopping the Tang army's attack.

    So far, Du Qi has dispatched nearly 50,000 people to join the battle.

    It is also due to defense.

    If it is a frontal fight, it will be extremely difficult for Du Qi's 50,000 troops to resist the attack of 150,000 to 60,000 Tang troops.  Even so, as the fighting time passed, in the afternoon and evening, Du Qi's defense gradually became weak again, faintly unable to stop Tang Jun's attack.

    The Tang army's offensive became more and more fierce.

    Hand-to-hand combat has begun to appear on many defense lines everywhere, and Tang Jun and Xia Guo's army are at war.

    This situation was summarized in front of Li Shimin, and Li Shimin's face was full of smiles.  He and Du Qi have been fighting for such a long time, and now they finally have the upper hand.  Even if Li Shimin knew that Du Qi hadn't gone all out at the moment and Du Qi still had an army, but if this momentum continued, Du Qi would undoubtedly be defeated.

    Li Shimin stroked the beard under his chin, looked at Fang Xuanling beside him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Fang, it is indeed correct for us to divide our forces and attack. Now we are already worried about breaking through the defense line and starting to kill the troops in the camp. The next step  , Du Qi's defense line collapsed, we can encircle Du Qi's army here, and annihilate Du Qi here. If Du Qi can be captured, then the confrontation between Tang Dynasty and Xia Kingdom will be a reversal of the offensive and defensive trend.  "

    Fang Xuanling smiled mischievously, but said nothing.

    Li Shimin is a little drifting!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
