"drink!"
"kill!"
On the battlefield, surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, Yang Zaixing and Shan Shituo have been fighting fiercely for hundreds of rounds. From time to time, some soldiers who overestimated their capabilities came to disrupt the situation, but without any surprise, they all turned into wisps of dead souls in the next moment.
As time went by, the casualties of the Sui army became more and more heavy. The mountain lion camel took advantage of the opportunity and shouted loudly: "Yang Zaixing, looking at the current situation, you have no choice but to put down your weapons and submit to the Tang Dynasty. Your Highness, the King of Qin, will definitely spare your life!"
"In this world, there is only Yang Zaixing who died in battle, and there is no groveling Yang Zaixing. A man can die on the battlefield and return with his body wrapped in horse leather, so what is there to fear?" Yang Zaixing's eyes widened with anger, his roar was like thunder, and he waved the iron gun in his hand like the wind, without any trace of reason. External interference affects one's state of mind.
"You are indeed a real man. I am so lucky to be able to fight with someone like you!" Shanshituo laughed and said nothing more at the moment. He devoted all his energy to the fight in front of him. The golden ingot flew up and down, making violent collision sounds in the air from time to time.
After the Tang army formed, Du Ruhui stood on horseback and watched the development of the battle coldly.
"Keming, there is no need to worry. Although Yang Zaixing and the soldiers under his command are surprisingly powerful, they are unable to defeat four hands with two fists. Under the crushing force of the absolutely superior force, no matter how brave the soldiers are, they cannot withstand it!"
Li Jilong also kept watching the development of the battle, with a smile on his face and said: "In half an hour at most, we will be able to completely wipe out this army."
"How is Li Junxian doing there? Is there any news about the Sui army's reinforcements?"
Du Ruhui did not continue what Li Jilong said, but stared into the distance and said in a deep voice.
Li Jilong chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Keming. Li Junxian just came to report that there were only a few Sui army cavalry patrolling and inspecting, and no large-scale reinforcements showed up!"
"Only a few Sentinel Riders?"
Du Ruhui was stunned when he heard this, and said uneasily: "The Sui army surrounded below is obviously an elite one among ten thousand. How can there be no one to rescue such an army? Is it possible that the Sui army has another conspiracy?"
"Keming, are you worrying too much?"
Li Jilong frowned slightly and said: "The Sui army saw through our plan to raid Hanjia Cang and laid an ambush in the Cang City in advance. As a result, the troops that came out of the city to rescue Yang Zaixing were somewhat stretched. Li Junxian seized the dangerous spot again, Sui The leading general of the army may have seen the disadvantages of a strong attack, so he held his troops back and led people to explore from time to time in an attempt to find a way to win quickly."
Du Ruhui's face remained solemn and he murmured: "I hope so!"
At this moment, someone among the soldiers suddenly shouted in horror: "Fire! There seems to be a fire in the direction of the camp!"
Du Ruhui was shocked when he heard this, and quickly looked sideways, only to see thick smoke billowing in the direction of the camp, and the soaring fire made half of the sky red.
Li Jilong also saw the fire rising into the sky and shouted: "No, this must be because the Sui reinforcements saw that they could not save Yang Zaixing, so they rushed to our camp. Send the order quickly and withdraw the troops back to the camp immediately!" "
"Deputy Commander Li."
As soon as Li Jilong finished speaking, Wang Renze on the side suddenly stopped him and said with a sneer: "The Sui army clearly wanted to surround Wei and rescue Zhao. Why should the deputy commander be led by their noses?"
"No one knows anything, what do you know?"
Before Li Jilong could answer, Du Ruhui had already coldly rebuked: "There are countless grains, grass, baggage and siege equipment stored in the camp. If the Sui army burns them all, even if we annihilate Yang Zaixing's troops, what's the use?" ? Without food, grass, and siege equipment, what can we use to attack Luoyang City?"
Li Jilong nodded, ignored Wang Renze, and walked away while protecting Du Ruhui.
Watching them leave, Wang Renze's face suddenly turned extremely ugly: "Damn it, Du Ruhui, this thief, said so nice things when he tried to win me over, but now that I'm useless, he's turned against his master and is ruthless. Li Yuan is a man of virtue."
Wang Renze was right. Du Ruhui had indeed planned to burn bridges across the river, but this was not just because Wang Renze had lost his use value. The more important reason was because of Wang Renze's own restlessness.
. . . . . . . . . .
When Li Jilong and Du Ruhui led the army back to the camp, it was already a mess, and countless soldiers were carrying basins to collect water to put out the fire.
Veteran general Qu Tutong and his brother Qu Tugai were originally responsible for leading the army to meet Li Cunxu and Song Jingang. They immediately returned after seeing the fire in the camp and arrived at the camp one step ahead of Li Jilong and Du Ruhui. At this moment, he was leading the sergeant around to rescue important supplies.
Du Ruhui rode up to Qu Tutong and asked eagerly: "Old General Qu Tu, how is the situation now?"
Qu Tutong sighed and said: "The situation is not very good. Nearly one hundred thousand stones of grain and grass were burned, at least 40% of the trebuchets were damaged, almost all the chrysanthemums were burned, and there were more than two hundred more. The ballista, more than a dozen nest vehicles and crash vehicles were damaged to varying degrees and are temporarily unusable."
When Du Ruhui heard this, his eyes went dark. Li Jilong on the side yelled: "Where is Pei Renji? I ordered him to guard the camp, how did he do it?"
"He is now leading the remaining troops to put out fires everywhere."
Qu Tutong shook his head helplessly and said: "This matter cannot be entirely blamed on him. The Sui army had ten thousand elites, and most of them were auxiliary soldiers. No one could withstand it. "
"Don't blame Pei Renji? Then who should be blamed? Li Cunxu and Song Jingang?" Because of the defeat, Li Jilong's mentality was also very bad, and his speech became a bit unpleasant.
"It's my fault. Whether it's Pei Renji, Li Cunxu or Song Jingang, they all tried their best. The defeat was entirely because of me."
At this moment, Du Ruhui slowly said: "It's me, I'm too impatient. I only thought about how to capture Luoyang quickly, and then rushed to Hulao to meet His Highness the King of Qin. I never really calmed down to analyze Luoyang. The situation in the city.
The plan to raid Hanjiacang seems to be a good one. As long as it succeeds, we can easily capture Luoyang City. But in fact, this plan is full of loopholes. Because I have never thought carefully about the consequences once the plan is seen through. From Hanjiacang City to Daying, there are flaws everywhere. "
After hearing Du Ruhui's words, Li Jilong suddenly became silent. After all, this plan was planned by him and Du Ruhui together.
After a pause, he asked again: "Keming, what should we do now?"
Du Ruhui took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "There are many resourceful people in Luoyang City. If we act too hastily, I am afraid it will be another disastrous defeat. At this point, we can only take things slowly."
