    ?

    In the early morning, the sun rises.

    The sun in early October is no longer hot, and it is warm on people.  The golden sun shone on the camp, making the bumpy camp covered with a layer of golden light.  It's just that there are still dried bloodstains everywhere on the ground in the camp, and the corpses have already been picked up and taken away for disposal.

    Last night, I was counting the losses.  As soon as everything was counted and processed, it was already early in the morning.  Xue Rengui, Xiao Yuanqi and Zuo Xianfeng, although their eyes were bloodshot due to staying up late, and although they were quite tired, their faces were full of excitement.

    This battle destroyed the Tang army's vital strength.

    Tang Jun no longer has the strength to fight.

    The three of them came to the big tent of the Chinese army hand in hand, and saluted Du Qi together. Xiao Yuanqi took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, after our counting, the number of Tang soldiers killed in the battle last night was as many as 136,800.  .In fact, there were not so many people who died, but many were seriously injured by artillery fire, and it was already difficult to treat them, so they were killed directly."

    "Now all the corpses have been burned."

    "We captured more than 16,000 Tang troops. Our own losses were more than 14,000. Our main loss was caused by resisting the Tang army's attack before."

    When Xiao Yuanqi mentioned the results of the battle, he was even more excited: "We won a complete victory in this battle. It's a pity that we failed to win Li Shimin. If we win Li Shimin, it will have a greater impact on the Tang army."

    Du Qi nodded and said: "Victory in this battle will completely establish Li Shimin's defeat. Datang now has no strength to resist. The army rests for a day, and our army will go to Longzhou early tomorrow morning to take down Anrong Pass. With us  With the current strength, it would be too easy to capture Anrong Pass."

    Xiao Yuanqi said: "Your Majesty is wise."

    But Xue Rengui said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the soldiers under my command, although they have endured the whole night, are full of fighting spirit. Everyone can't wait to enter the territory of Tang Dynasty immediately, and go directly to Anrong Pass."

    The left vanguard was brought out by Xue Rengui. Like Xue Rengui, he is a full-fledged militant.  He also nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, the soldiers under your command are willing to participate in the battle, please allow your Majesty. Our people, even if they don't rest, still have full fighting power, enough to conquer Anrong Pass."

    Du Qi waved his hand and said: "After staying up all night, everyone went down to rest and recuperate. Tomorrow morning, troops will be dispatched to Anrong Pass. There is no need to discuss this matter, it is just decided."

    "yes!"

    The three of them responded together.

    After the three retreated, Du Qi walked out of the camp, and went to the camp to appease the injured soldiers as usual.  It took more than half a day to walk down this circle alone.

    A day is fleeting.

    The next day, early morning.

    Xia Guo's army broke out of camp and set off to kill in Longzhou.  At this time, Li Shimin had already been stationed at Anrong Pass, but now Li Shimin's troops were only a mere 10,000.  This has gathered some people along the way, but in the end there are only so many troops.  It is impossible to defend Anrong Pass with more than ten thousand people resisting Du Qi's army.

    Li Shimin stood on the top of the city tower, with melancholy eyes and mournful expression, and said helplessly: "Fang Qing, let's go back to Anrong Pass, and the next step is Du Qi's army will definitely arrive at Anrong Pass. How can we resist now?"  ?¡±

    "Can't stop it!"

    Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although Du Qi's army suffered losses in the battle yesterday, at most it lost more than ten thousand people. But our army was completely lost, and now there are only more than ten thousand people by our side  .Even if one after another, there will still be people coming back, but there can't be too many troops. It's not easy to defend Anrong Pass!"

    Wei Zheng is also worried now. He sighed: "Your Majesty, I really can't hold on now. Once the news of the defeat in this battle spreads in the country, I am afraid that the situation in the country will further deteriorate and collapse. It is no problem for us to guard Chang'an  , but it is difficult to hold the rest of the area. I am afraid that it will be difficult to control Gyeonggi-do."

    Li Shimin slapped the city wall with a helpless expression.  Because at the moment, he really can't do anything.  Although the Anrong Pass is strong, Li Shimin is sure to block the 70,000 to 80,000 troops with more than 10,000 troops.  But Du Qi has new weapons, and Anrong Pass can't hold it under the artillery bombardment. In the end, Anrong Pass will definitely collapse.

    Li Shimin's eyes were even more worried.

    Worry about how to stop Du Qi.

    Worried about how to stabilize the domestic situation.

    Li Shimin looked at the blue sky and said with emotion: "The situation in the world really changes in a blink of an eye, and it will be different in a blink of an eye. The battle between us and Du Qi is already on the verge of extinction. If there is no Du Qi, relying on our possession of gunpowder and other weapons.??, it will not be very difficult to defeat neighboring countries and suppress the domestic situation.  Now with Du Qi, it is very complicated.  Regarding resisting Du Qi, what do you think should be done?  "

    Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty, can we treat him in the same way?"

    Li Shimin looked at Wei Shuyu and said approvingly: "How can I treat a person in the same way as a person?"

    Wei Shuyu said seriously: "It's actually very simple. We can arrange a lot of gunpowder downstairs. When Du Qi arrives, we will detonate the gunpowder. Even if we can't kill Du Qi, we will kill Du Qi's soldiers. We will arrange gunpowder along the way."  Gunpowder, stop Du Qi. They can ambush gunpowder underground, so can we!"

    Li Shimin thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not easy to operate!"

    Wei Shuyu said: "Why?"

    Li Shimin did not speak first, but Fang Xuanling said first: "The reason is very simple. We guard Anrong Pass, and Du Qi will definitely bombard Anrong Pass first. Under the intensive bombardment, if we arrange gunpowder at Anrong Pass  Underground, when Du Qi's artillery bombards, once the gunpowder in the ground is ignited, the entire city may collapse, and we will be affected instead."

    Wei Shuyu shook his head and said, "Master Fang, we obviously can't defend Anrong Pass, why should we continue to guard it? Our army retreats directly, leaving a few soldiers in ambush nearby. As long as Du Qi's army,  When we arrive at Anrong Pass in batches, we will detonate the gunpowder and kill Xia's soldiers."

    After a pause, Wei Shuyu continued: "It would be the best if Du Qi could be killed. If it doesn't kill him, that's okay. Anyway, it's worth it to kill the soldiers of Xia Kingdom."

    Fang Xuanling pondered for a while when he heard it, and shook his head, "If this arrangement is made, some soldiers of the Xia Kingdom can indeed be killed. Unfortunately, this arrangement is only a slight delay, and it is impossible to really stop the Xia Kingdom's army.  And this kind of thing is the first time it can achieve miraculous results. In the follow-up official road, Du Qi's army will guard against death and investigate carefully. It will be difficult to bomb Du Qi again. In short, this kind of method is of little use.  .¡±

    Wei Shuyu sighed when he heard the words, it was indeed as Fang Xuanling said, it is definitely impossible to defeat Du Qi.  At most, it's just to disgust Du Qi.

    The most important thing now is to win this battle.

    Just how to do it?

    Wei Shuyu thought quickly in his heart, but after much deliberation, there was still no solution.  Because at the moment, Wei Shuyu has nothing to do, Xia Guo's army is too strong, and the weapons are too powerful.  It is almost impossible to stop Du Qi's army.

    The general trend is already in the country of Xia.

    Datang, lost to Xia Guo.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
