On the wall built by Liangzhou soldiers, sharp arrows rained down continuously.
Many Third Division soldiers were shot through the chests by arrows without even understanding what was going on.
But Zhao Youlin still stood behind the crowd, with a fierce face and no intention of retreating.
Seeing this, the surrounding third-level generals became a little anxious.
"Commander Zhao, our troops are already tired after running here. It's better to withdraw as soon as possible."
"Yes, Commander Zhao, if we continue to attack like this regardless of the cost, our army's losses will probably be immeasurable."
"What are you afraid of?"
Zhao Youlin looked back at the general and sneered: "Attack, continue to attack me."
"If 10,000 people are not enough, use 20,000 people. If 20,000 people are not enough, use 40,000 people. If 40,000 people are not enough, use everyone together."
"Today I have only one request, and that is to break the enemy camp."
After hearing these words, many generals showed bitterness on their faces.
Doesn't he mean to force all their soldiers to die together...
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, no one knew what to do.
But how could they know what Zhao Youlin was thinking?
With Zhao Youlin's intelligence, how could he not see that this battle would be defeated?
But how could he be willing to let it go?
Especially after hearing that Li Chengqian was still alive, he wanted to rush in front of Li Chengqian and eat him alive.
He really regretted not sending anyone down to the Yellow River to look for him.
But it's too late to say anything now, time will not go back, and Li Chengqian will never give him another chance.
And if he wanted to continue seeking revenge, there was only one way.
That is the death of King Xi and the destruction of the Xi clan.
In this way, these soldiers in front of him are under his control.
No matter how many of these people survive, as long as he takes these people with him, he will always get an opportunity no matter where he goes.
Therefore, there is only one thing he has to do now.
That is to drag the Xi clan king's tent to be attacked by the Tang Dynasty's South Road Bingzhou Army.
He gritted his teeth and looked south.
Damn Li Ji, why didn't you launch an attack?
…
Li Ji also wanted to launch a final general attack.
But the envoy sent by King Xi arrived at the military camp first.
The messenger Xiaozhi described the incident to Li Ji with emotion and reason.
There is no need to elaborate on the content of their conversation.
It was nothing more than Xi Wang Yuwen Yuanliang who put all the responsibilities on Zhao Youlin.
It was shown that he was against the Tang Dynasty only under Zhao Youlin's instigation.
All these incidents were planned by Zhao Youlin.
Now that Zhao Youlin is completely out of his control, he hopes that Datang will go to Zhao Youlin for revenge and grievances, and never go to him.
For this reason, Li Ji did not launch a direct attack, but sent someone to ask Li Chengqian what he meant.
When Li Chengqian received the news, he only replied to Li Ji with two words: "Let the fight begin."
These two words also show Li Chengqian's attitude.
I don't care who you are deceived by, since you are King Xi, you have to pay the price for it.
Changsun Chong was also puzzled by this.
Originally, he could see through Li Chengqian's plan.
It was nothing more than wanting to see King Xi and Zhao Youlin fight dogs.
But now, Li Chengqian sent Li Ji to directly attack the Xi clan king's tent.
In this case, wouldn't the previous plan be in vain?
Li Chengqian certainly had his own explanation for this.
He faced Changsun Chong and asked with a smile: "Let me ask you, if you think back when Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony, Han Xin ambushed Xiang Yu from all sides, and he could have surrounded Xiang Yu to death."
"But why did Han Xin open his eyes and deliberately let Xiang Yu survive?"
"I'm afraid that Xiang Yu will destroy the cauldron and risk his life in one blow."
After saying this, Changsun Chong suddenly came to his senses and looked at Li Chengqian in surprise.
"Your Highness, do you mean that you are afraid that Zhao Youlin will be like Xiang Yu?"
This is too much to look down on Zhao Youlin...
"Yes and no."
Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "Although Zhao Youlin is not as good as Xiang Yu, he still has more than 60,000 soldiers under his command."
"Even if their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced and Zhao Youlin commanded them improperly, these are 60,000 people after all."
"Let me estimate how many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty can these 60,000 people die on the battlefield?"
Changsun Chong pursed his lips and said nothing.
Li Chengqian put his hands behind his back and sighed: "So, it is just one of them to make their monarch and his ministers turn against each other."
"No matter when the time comes, we must remember that our original intention is to destroy the Northeast Sanfan."
"And he, Zhao Youlin, is just an insignificant chess piece."
"But you can think of it, Zhao Youlin can think of it too."
"If the Xi clan's royal family is destroyed, the Northeastern Third Band will also be completely wiped out."
Changsun Chong said with concern: "At that time, all these 60,000 soldiers will really only follow Zhao Youlin's lead."
"so what?"
"Do you think Goguryeo dares to take in these 60,000 people, or does Xue Yantuo dare to take them in?"
Li Chengqian chuckled and said, "Or do you think Shiwei Mohe and other small tribes dare to take them in?"
After hearing this, Changsun Chong felt relieved.
He shook his head and said with a smile: "The annihilation of the Northeast Sanfang this time has spread the prestige of our Tang Dynasty everywhere."
"If anyone dares to go against Datang at this time, isn't that just asking for death?"
Li Chengqian nodded and said: "You are right, that's what I want to say."
"So now Zhao Youlin is of no importance to us. What we have to do is to wipe out the Northeast Sanfang, and then think about how to use that land."
He is from the next generation.
How could we not know the importance of Northeast China to the whole of China?
The land is vast and rich in resources. Whether it is black soil suitable for growing crops or natural hunting and fishing grounds, Datang is in great need now.
Although the underground mineral resources in the Northeast cannot be used yet.
But judging from his current scientific research progress, it is only a matter of time before he comes up with a steam engine.
If the steam engine comes out and takes the lead in gaining control of underground energy, wouldn't it be a matter of minutes?
Now Li Chengqian has begun to study underground mineral resources.
This shows that he doesn't take this Northeast Sanfan seriously at all.
And even though Zhao Youlin almost killed him, he didn't let him worry too much.
After all, in his eyes, Zhao Youlin was just an insignificant person.
You can say that he is arrogant, or you can say that he looks down on Zhao Youlin.
But no matter what, he still has his arrogance.
…
After receiving Li Chengqian's order, Li Ji did not hesitate and immediately dispatched troops and generals to launch a general attack on the Xi clan's royal tent.
Nowadays, there are not many soldiers and horses in the Xi clan royal tent.
It's just a few thousand royal guards.
And how could these thousands of people resist the tens of thousands of Bingzhou soldiers commanded by Li Ji?
The battle from start to finish only lasted two hours.
Two hours later, all the royal family members of the Xi clan, including King Xi Yuwen Yuanliang, were put into the prison car.
King Xi Yuwen Yuanliang yelled at Li Ji: "Tang thief! You clearly promised to negotiate peace with me, but you still launch an attack today. You don't keep your word!"
"Not trustworthy?"
Li Ji chuckled lightly and said in a teasing tone: "Your Highness, Prince Xi, may have forgotten that I did not agree to your request for peace talks at all."
"From beginning to end, it was just your own wishful thinking."
When he finished speaking, he didn't bother to talk nonsense to Yu Wen Yuanliang, and directly waved his hand and said: "Take him away and send him to Chang'an City, and hand him over to your Majesty."
