    Li Yuanji's eyes were about to bleed, and he shouted: "No, I don't accept it, Yang Xuangan, even if I, Li Yuanji, become a ghost, I won't let you go!" As he spoke, he threw the long spear in his hand.  , pulled out the sword from his waist and wiped it on his neck, blood surged out like a fountain, but his body was still sitting upright on the saddle, motionless.  Li Xiuning cried out sadly: "Silang!" A trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her delicate body swayed, almost falling off the horse. Chai Shao quickly reached out his hand to hold her, with a trace of pity flashing in his eyes:  "Aning, don't be like this, Si Lang" Li Xiuning suddenly shook off Chai Shao's hand and sat upright. Two tears fell from her eyes, but her voice became calmer: "This is Si Lang's life.  It is also the choice of every man in our Li family. Dying in battle like this is how our Longxi Li family will die. I, as a sister, should be happy to have such a brother!" Chai Shao said silently, for a long time, he  Then he looked at the Tang army soldiers who were kneeling in large numbers in front to ask for surrender, and said: "Our frontline troops have been defeated and collapsed. Now Yang Xuangan will definitely leave a small number of troops to clean the battlefield, take prisoners into custody, and send elite troops to rush towards us. What should we do?"  ?¡± Li Xiuning gritted his teeth and said: ¡°Our purpose is to block Yang Xuangan. Now the enemy¡¯s momentum is so high that our army cannot confront it head-on. Send an order to retreat immediately. Use strong bows and crossbows to break up the cavalry, and the infantry rushes to the south of the city.  The camp will be moved and will join Qian Jiulong and Wang Junkuo's troops there to block Yang Xuangan's Jianghuai soldiers. Even if they can't be stopped, they can't rush to the west city comfortably and disturb Erlang. " As he said that, Li Xiuning didn't even look up!  After turning around and walking away, Chai Shao gave Yang Xuangan a fierce look on the opposite side and said in a deep voice to the messenger beside him: "Do as the princess said, withdraw the troops!" Yang Xuangan calmly looked at the groups of Tang troops.  Wearing single clothes, holding their heads in their hands, they were strung up in strings with ropes and dejectedly escorted out of the battlefield. The armors and weapons like mountains were divided into more than a dozen large piles and piled up everywhere on the battlefield. Han Shi'e said excitedly  : "King Yang Xuangan was already the King of Han at this time. Our army won a great victory, beheading more than 21,000 soldiers, capturing more than 40,000 enemy soldiers, capturing all the baggage and armor, and the enemy commander Li Yuanji committed suicide in defeat.  General Yu was captured by our army, which can be said to be a great victory!" Yang Xuangan shook his head: "No, today's battle is a decisive battle. The real decisive battle is not here, but where your Majesty and Li Shimin are fighting. Now  It sounds like there is no fighting in Nancheng. Is there anyone who can report the battlefield situation there? " Wang Zhongbo nodded and said, "Tanba just reported that there was no fighting in Nancheng, but it was more than ten miles south.  On the front line of Juese Mountain, the sound of killing shook the sky and the earth. There were only more than 20,000 Tang troops and more than 40,000 elite troops of our army facing each other across the Yangqu in Nancheng. Under the banner of Li Shimin and His Majesty, there was no fight. " Yang Xuangan frowned.  : "It's impossible. If it really is the main battlefield between the two armies, it won't be of this scale, and it's even more impossible that we haven't fought yet. There should be the Jingzhou soldiers and horses of Shu King Li Jing attacking at Quesai Mountain. Li Shimin  If the main force goes there, it is impossible for His Majesty to stand still. Therefore, I expect that the main battlefield of the two sides is not in the south of the city, but in the west of the city!" Han Shi'e's eyes widened: "How is it possible? How could the two sides come to the west of the city?  Are you going to the west of the city for a decisive battle?" Yang Xuangan's eyes flashed coldly, pointing at Li Xiuning's troops who were retreating, and said: "The Twelve Guardsmen in Guanzhong are the elite of Li Tang. Li Xiuning and Chai Shao each lead Tanlang and Taiyin.  The two guards, but the other ten guards are not here, must have been taken away by Li Shimin. Now Li Yuanji's right army has been completely wiped out, and Li Xiuning still withdrew his troops regardless of his brother's death, which shows that there is a more important place than here.  , this place must be in the west of the city, where is the main battlefield!  " Having said this, Yang Xuangan gritted his teeth: "It turns out that the Tang army is trying its best to delay us. Our army in Luoyang only has 70,000 or 80,000 troops. If the 40,000 people in the south of the city are suspected soldiers, then what your Majesty has brought with you, I'm afraid.  There are only 30,000 to 50,000 Huainan veterans and Xiaoguo troops. Facing Li Tang's full attack, it is very dangerous!  " Han Shi'er opened his eyes wide: "Your Majesty has always been clever and clever. How could he put himself in such danger, and how could he lead his troops to the west of the city alone?  " Yang Xuan sighed: "I don't know exactly what happened, but Li Shimin must have used some trick. I'm afraid that now in Quesai Mountain, he is also trying his best to stop Li Jing's attack with partial troops and delay time. We can't wait any longer.  , pass the order, all the cavalry will attack with me, bypass the Tang camp in the south of the city, also bypass the troops of Li Xiuning and Chai Shao, and go straight to the west of the city, where will be the battlefield of our army!  " Han Shi'er wondered: "Our cavalry only has 8,000 people, and most of them are infantry. Can we go with only these 8,000 people?  Yang Xuangan gritted his teeth and said, "Take the Tang army's horses."?All the baggage horses were gathered together, and 20,000 infantrymen rode on horseback. I trained them when I was in Pengcheng. They can ride horses. Even if they cannot charge into the battle, they can also use them maneuverably. Even if only 10,000 people rush to the battlefield, it will still be useful to Your Majesty.  Help, Shi'e, you come with me, Uncle Zhong, you continue to command the rest of the troops. Three thousand people will escort the Tang army prisoners back to the camp. The others will follow Li Xiuning. Don't attack. If they attack, they will form a formation to defend. Understand.  Already?  Wang Zhongbo nodded and was about to speak when Yang Xuangan rode out and shouted: "Jianghuai cavalry, follow me, Shi'e, you lead the mounted infantry to keep up in time, speed!"  " Li Xiuning wiped the tears from his eyes while riding the horse. Shuang'er followed him with more than ten personal female guards, while Chai Shao followed silently without saying a word. " There was a burst of noise five miles behind him.  With the sound of iron hoofs hitting the ground, Chai Shao and Li Xiuning turned their heads in unison, and saw a line of smoke rising into the sky. It looked like thousands of troops galloping at full speed, starting from the battlefield in the distance and heading towards the side of the army.  And left. Chai Shao's expression changed and he said angrily: "You bitch, do you want to eat us in one bite?  An Ning, fight with them!  " Li Xiuning frowned, looked attentively for a while, and shook his head: "No, they are not coming for us, but they seem to be going around us.  "Looking at Yang Xuangan, who was wearing a white horse and silver armor and rushing to the front, Li Xiuning said quietly: "Yang Xuangan personally led the cavalry to gallop. He is probably going to Erlang's place. He should be aware of the location of the main battlefield. We must not let him.  They rushed over, husband, we will also lead the cavalry to chase and intercept Yang Xuangan!  Chai Shao laughed, put on his mask, picked up his long spear, and shouted: "Knights, the time has come to avenge King Qi, come with me!"  "
