    ?

    In the evening, the river is brightly lit.

    The torches were burned one by one, dispelling the darkness, so that the lights on the warship were still as bright as day.

    On board the Jiaolong.

    Du Qi sat on the stool, enjoying the river breeze, quite relaxed.  Shangguanyi and Guan Zhilan sat aside, chatting with Du Qi about the attack on Jiangdu.  Shangguanyi seemed particularly relaxed. He said with a smile, "Your Majesty, the Tang side lost tens of thousands of troops in this battle. For us, the victory is completely established."

    "Da Tang, there is no power to return to heaven."

    "Li Shimin wanted to compete with us on the river, that was the worst decision. If Li Shimin hadn't thought about defeating us on the river, he might still be able to survive for a while. But at the moment, Li Shimin can only be defeated  portion."

    Shangguanyi said: "The overall situation has been decided, Xia Guo should inherit the destiny and rule the world."

    Du Qi said with a smile: "Li Shimin did make a big mistake. He thought that the Jiangnan navy was good at fighting, so he arranged for soldiers to fight. As everyone knows, our warships are stronger. Even the keels of the warships are forged with fine steel  , and even some places on the warship are inlaid with iron sheets, once it collides with an ordinary warship, we will definitely win. After all, Li Shimin is one step closer."

    Guan Zhilan said: "This is His Majesty's wisdom."

    Guan Zhilan admired Du Qi from the bottom of his heart.  Because everything in Xia Kingdom today is run by Du Qi bit by bit.  Take this warship as an example, although it was made by Tang Zhongsheng and other craftsmen, but these points cannot be separated from Du Qi.

    Without Du Qi, there would be no such warship.

    Du Qicai is the soul.

    At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, but it was Xue Rengui who came to Du Qi's side, he clasped his fists to salute, and then reported: "Your Majesty, the results of the battle have been calculated.

    The Tang army's 100,000 people were wiped out.

    Our side won a big victory.

    In this battle, less than a hundred of our soldiers were lost, but countless soldiers were beheaded, because many fell into the water and were killed in the water, so the specific number of beheaded is not available for the time being, but the number of prisoners is  clear.

    In this battle, we captured more than 40,000 soldiers of the Tang Army. Right now, these 40,000 people are temporarily placed on warships.  Some of them were placed on our warships, and some were placed on Tang Jun's warships.  After all, although some Tang army warships were damaged, they never leaked, and they could continue to be used after repairing them.

    As for the escaped soldiers of the Tang Army, there should be quite a few of them.  It's just that at the moment, it can't be stopped. After all, the opponent's evacuation is most likely to swim to the shore after falling into the water.  "

    Du Qi nodded and said: "This battle was very good."

    Xue Rengui said again: "Although there were not many captured in this battle, according to the results of the interrogation. On the side of the Tang army, the coach Xue Wanjun and the military adviser Xu Jingzong committed suicide and died for their country. As for Xue Wanche, he fled with his soldiers.  .¡±

    Du Qidao: "A Xue Wanche who escaped is not worth mentioning. As for the bodies of Xue Wanjun and Xu Jingzong, if they are found, they should be buried generously. After all, they are important ministers."

    Xue Rengui said: "I understand."

    Du Qi waved his hand and said: "In addition, we will send orders. Our army has been busy for a day and rested on the shore overnight. Tomorrow morning, we will set off and continue our journey, heading straight to Jiangdu."

    "yes!"

    Xue Rengui ordered to go down immediately.

    Up to now, the soldiers responsible for living and cooking have started to get busy, and they are all preparing dinner quickly.

    And when Xia Guo's army was stationed and rested, some unscrupulous people from the Tang army who were watching by the river had already left on horseback, and set off overnight on horseback to report to Jiangdu.

    When the letter reached Wei Shuyu's hands, it was already past midnight.  The sentinel who returned to deliver the message was already out of breath, and even the war horse ran to the ground and foamed at the mouth.

    After reading the letter, Wei Shuyu's complexion changed drastically.

    Lost!

    The whole army was defeated!

    You know, there are a total of one hundred thousand people, with strong soldiers and strong horses.  Moreover, Datang's warships are the strongest.  But among the letters sent back, there was one piece of news that surprised Wei Shuyu.  Xia Guo's warships are extremely strong.  The warship of Datang's side collided with it and was damaged directly, but the warship of Xia's side was not damaged at all.

    Compared with Datang's warships, which were bombarded, they were damaged.  The warships of the Xia Kingdom are extremely sturdy, which is the most shocking thing. After all, the Xia Kingdom has always been in the north and is not used to water warfare, but the Xia Kingdom's ships are so powerful.

    theWei Shuyu sighed inwardly.

    The destiny is no longer in Tang, but in Xia.

    Datang prepared for half a year and prepared such a long force, but it was a battle on the water, and they were all ruined easily.  Whoever puts such a result on it will be a big blow.

    Wei Shuyu knew that this situation could not be delayed, and must be reported immediately.  Even though it was early morning and the surroundings were pitch black, Wei Shuyu didn't delay at all, and directly ordered the housekeeper to prepare the carriage, then he put on his clothes and went out.

    Wei Shuyu walked out of the room, and when he came to the hall, he saw Wei Zheng standing in the hall.  Wei Shuyu paused and asked, "Father, it's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

    Wei Zheng said: "I heard a knock on the door earlier, and someone came to report the news. The old man estimated that there was news from the front line. Judging by the way you are walking in a hurry, I guess the situation is not good."

    At this moment, Wei Zheng also had a worried look on his face.

    Wei Shuyu sighed, and said: "Father, the army on the front line has been defeated. According to the news sent back, all the 100,000 troops were defeated. Xue Wanjun and Xu Jingzong died, and Xue Wanche still does not know whether he is alive or dead."

    Wei Zheng's complexion changed drastically.

    This loss is too great.

    You must know that Xue Wanjun was the coach and Xu Jingzong was the military adviser, and they were both buried on the front line.

    Wei Zheng directly asked for the battle report to check. After reading it, Wei Zheng was speechless, so he went directly to the palace with Wei Shuyu.  Although the two asked to see each other overnight, but Wei Shuyu's identity was different, and Wei Zheng was the prime minister, so the guards guarding the palace gate immediately went to report, and not long after, they got the news of Li Shimin's meeting.

    The father and son entered the palace, entered the bedroom, saw Li Shimin sitting on the bed in a thin shirt, and hurriedly saluted.

    Li Shimin said: "The two of you entered the palace overnight, I'm afraid it's bad news from the front line."

    Wei Shuyu said: "Your Majesty is wise."

    Li Shimin smiled sadly and said: "If I am wise, the front line will not be defeated again. Tell me, what kind of situation is it?"

    Wei Shuyu handed over the brochure, and then he explained it quickly.

    Li Shimin listened and watched at the same time, and when Li Shimin finished listening to it, he finally became even more depressed. He said: "Xia Guo has artillery and can bomb, which is not surprising. But why did Xia Guo's warship collide?  It is intact, why is this? This situation is really puzzling, and it is even more puzzling. Could it be that Xia Guo is really invincible?"

    Wei Shuyu and Wei Zheng looked at each other with expressions of helplessness.

    Fighting against Xia Guo, the pressure is too great.

    Li Shimin continued: "I also know that after this situation happens, the first thing to do is to come up with a countermeasure. It's just that Xia Guo's army is already approaching. It is estimated that tomorrow, Xia Guo's warship will definitely  Will log in from the pier. In this case, how should we deal with it, what do you think should be done?"

    Wei Shuyu and Wei Zheng were a little embarrassed when they heard the words.

    Because at the moment, I really don't know what to do in this situation, and it is not easy to resist the menacing Xia State army.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
