bastard seizes tang

Chapter 691
Breaking more with less is commonplace for the generals of the Tang army, not to mention that Li Daozong waited for work with ease, was well-equipped, and led what is called the world's elite Beiya Forbidden Army.

Gao Qixiang led an army of [-] to attack from the southwest, while Li Daozong led an army of [-] to block the main road at the foot of the mountain. If this army is defeated, Liaodong City will have no foreign aid. At that time, not only Liaodong City, but also all the troops will be sent out to defend. The empty Gaimu City is also within reach.

Li Daozong led the army to fight at the foot of the mountain, while the emperor Li Shimin climbed the mountain to watch in person. It was not only to supervise the battle, but also to give Li Daozong confidence and determination. After all, the emperor was here, and there was no room for loss.

Li Daozong used to be Li Jing's subordinate, although he was not a disciple like Li Ke, but he was quite as popular as Li Jing, and his use of troops was dangerous and bold.Li Daozong set up an army at the foot of the mountain, facing [-] people with [-] people, Li Daozong did not stick to the rules and blindly deployed defenses, but led [-] fine horsemen to go straight to Gao Qixiang's [-] army.

Gao Qixiang led 4 people to fight more with less horses, and even cooperated with the inside and outside. Gao Qixiang thought that it was a battle of extermination, but Li Daozong's actions really exceeded Gao Qixiang's expectations. Gao Qixiang took the step forward and wanted to attack Tang Jun Dazhai, but it was not the defenders of Tang Jun Dazhai who greeted him, but Li Daozong's Beiya Jingqi.

Li Daozong waited for work with leisure, which was to catch Gao Qixiang by surprise, but Gao Qixiang was equally bold, he dared to charge when he saw Li Daozong leading four thousand cavalry. The 4000 people who delivered it to their door won it.

After all, everyone in the world said that the Tang army was elite and good at fighting, but the Goguryeo people had never seen it with their own eyes. Gao Qixiang said that forty thousand was against four thousand.

And Gao Qixiang's actions are also in line with Li Daozong's intentions. What Li Daozong fears is that Gao Qixiang will form a formation and stick to it. After all, with few enemies, it will be even more difficult for Gao Qixiang to defend the formation without Li Daozong.

There are many generals and schools in the Beiya Forbidden Army who accompanied Li Shimin in the Southern and Northern Wars. Although there were replacements during the period, they were all elites. Generally, they poured into the Goguryeo army.

Li Daozong is also a veteran, and his idea is good. He divides into two wings, divides into the Goguryeo army on the left and right, and then penetrates from left to right, breaks up the entire Goguryeo formation, and wipes it out in one fell swoop.

Li Daozong's thinking is good, and it is not impossible to do it, but Li Daozong missed the calculation and overestimated Li Junyi. Li Junyi is a newly promoted general who has made achievements in the Northwest in recent years. It's not bad, otherwise he wouldn't be Li Daozong's deputy general. The only thing is that he was used to fighting with the wind in the northwest, and he didn't fight many tough battles.

Li Daozong and Li Junyi rode into the battle separately, Li Daozong attacked to the right and Li Junyi attacked to the left.

But Li Junyi's side is a little different. At the beginning of the battle between the two armies, Li Junyi was considered brave, but as the two armies got closer and closer to Gao Qixiang, more and more Goguryeo people surrounded him. Slowly, Li Junyi disappeared. Vigorous, a little hesitant, stopped for a while, unable to kill.

On the battlefield, when the two armies are fighting, the most taboo thing is to fear the head and the tail, especially when Li Daozong has led the crowd to the depths of the enemy army. If Li Junyi can't make peace as promised, then Li Daozong will become a lone army and will be killed by the Goguryeo people. Slowly swallowed.

Li Daozong, who was also in the formation, could also see the situation on Li Junyi's side clearly, but at this time Li Daozong had no choice, he had no way out, so he could only bite the bullet and rush in, hoping to kill through with his own strength. Gao Qixiang's Chinese army.

It's just that Li Daozong thought well, but the situation went down in an instant as Li Junyi was blocked. Li Daoyi could not march, and the pressure on the left wing of the Goguryeo army suddenly dropped, so he naturally had spare energy to take care of Li Daozong on the right wing.

Gao Qixiang saw that Li Daoyi was no longer in a good position, so he ordered part of the left-wing army to be transferred to the right-wing reinforcements, and together they besieged and killed Li Daozong.

Li Shimin is also a man who knows how to fight. He stood on the hillside and looked at the battle situation down the mountain. At first, it was fine, but as Li Junyi was blocked, Li Daozong's offensive slowed down, and when he was about to be besieged, Li Shimin frowned. up.

"Your Majesty, Li Junyi is blocked, and Jiangxia King's army goes deep alone. I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Xue Rengui stood behind Li Shimin, looking at the situation at the foot of the mountain, and said to Li Shimin.

How could Li Shimin not know the current situation, Li Shimin said: "Li Junyi is afraid of death and misleading me. If this continues, the Taoist sect will be in danger!"

Yuchi Gong on the side heard the words, and immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, I will send two thousand soldiers to rush to help, and Li Daozong will definitely be rescued."

Yu Chigong and Li Daozong had some feuds in the past, but they still stood up in the face of big right and wrong. Once Li Daozong's army was wiped out, Li Shimin fell into a passive position and had to withdraw his troops. This time the battle to capture Liaodong City could only end there.

Yuchi Gongnai was a fierce general at the time, and he was the best candidate to fight against the enemy. Although he was a bit older, his reputation was not lost, and he had the confidence to say such words.

Li Daozong is not only Li Shimin's beloved general, but also his cousin. In any case, Li Daozong must be rescued, but at this time, sending troops to charge from the front may have little effect, even if Yuchi Gong is brave. , must also be a tragic victory.The Beiya Imperial Army is Li Shimin's darling, and Li Shimin is unwilling to fold the soldiers here.

Li Shimin obviously had hesitation on his face, when Yu Chigong saw this, he immediately said urgently: "Your Majesty, what is there to hesitate, if it is about killing the enemy on the battlefield, who is the opponent of the last general here, if the last general dares to issue a military order, he will definitely defeat the enemy. "

Yu Chigong has always relied on his bravery, and everyone in the world except Qin Shubao doesn't pay attention to him, this is well known.It would not be inappropriate to leave this matter in the past, but it is not possible today, because there is still Xue Rengui standing here.

What Yu Chigong said was too arrogant, he valued himself and despised others, Xue Rengui immediately became unhappy when he heard Yuchigong's words, Xue Rengui came out and said: "Mr. Thousands of elite cavalry will eventually invite a thousand soldiers, and they will surely take the head of Prime Minister Gao Qi and present it to His Majesty."

Yu Chigong was bold enough to break the formation with 2000 people, but Xue Rengui was even more vocal, and directly wanted to take Gao Qixiang's head with 1000 people.

Li Shimin asked Xue Rengui: "What do you want to do?"

Xue Rengui also acted prudently. He dared to say that, of course he had confidence. Xue Rengui replied: "Master Gao Qi puts more emphasis on the right wing than the left wing. The general wants to take Gao Qixiang's left wing directly. This is beheading. Therefore, you don't need many soldiers, one thousand is enough."

What Xue Rengui said was exactly what Li Shimin had just thought. The left wing soldiers are weak, and if they can break Goguryeo, they will lose.As for Xue Rengui's bravery, perhaps others don't know about it, but Li Shimin knows it all too well. Li Shimin still remembers Xue Rengui's appearance as one of a hundred in the East Palace, and Li Shimin still remembers it in his heart and never forgets it.

Li Shimin responded immediately: "Okay, I will give you a thousand elites, and I am waiting for your good news."
