"Soldiers, use all your strength to break out of the encirclement and be sure to find a way out quickly, otherwise, we will all die here today!"
When Li Siyuan, who was responsible for blocking the Sui army's pursuit in the rear, discovered that Xue Rengui was leading a large group of Sui army cavalry, he not only ordered the entire army to attack and block the attack, but also immediately sent someone to tell Li Shimin about the incident.
After Li Shimin learned about this, he suddenly became anxious. After many years of military service, he naturally understood that the cavalry coming to pursue must be the elite of the Sui army. The generals leading the army must also be strong generals of the level of Li Cunxiao, Yuwen Chengdu, and Xue Rengui. Li Siyuan's troops and horses alone cannot withstand it for long. .
"Soldiers, charge forward. Anyone who dares to be timid and afraid of fighting will be killed without mercy!"
Li Shimin, knowing that he was at a critical juncture of life and death, could no longer care about the danger. He rushed straight up the mountain road, shouting and urging his Tang troops to charge forward risking their lives.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Li Shimin has entered a fighting state, his force is +4, his base force is 86, and his current force has risen to 90."
"The thief Li Shimin actually rushed up in person. This is really a God-given opportunity!"
Yang Yanzhao was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately shouted loudly: "Commanders, Your Majesty has made it clear that whoever takes off Li Shimin's head will receive a reward of 10,000 taels and be promoted to the third level!"
"Kill!"
Under the temptation of the huge reward, countless Sui soldiers swarmed forward with roars. As long as Li Shimin's head is taken, he will have no worries about food and clothing. If he is lucky, he may be able to enjoy the official career from now on.
"Don't overestimate your own capabilities, anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Li Shimin was born as a child of Guanlong, and he also practiced martial arts since childhood. Although he cannot be compared with the real fierce generals of Guanlong, he is also skilled in bow and horse, and is more than enough to deal with some ordinary soldiers.
"Li Shimin, do you know General Hu Yanzhuo?"
Just hearing a roar, a majestic and burly body spurred the horse from Li Shimin's side. He raised his whip in his hand and smashed it towards Li Shimin with all his strength.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Hu Yanzhuo has entered a fighting state, the force is +3, the base force is 96, and the current force has increased to 99."
Upon seeing this, Li Shimin immediately raised his long spear in his hand and stabbed forward, sweeping left and right, trying to use his own power to swing away Hu Yanzhuo's double whips. In this way, Hu Yanzhuo's door was open, and he only needed to stab forward with all his strength to get it. Take his life.
Hu Yanzhuo saw Li Shimin's intention at a glance, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a strange smile. The two whips were swung inward, and Li Shimin's horse was immediately clamped.
"not good!"
When Li Shimin saw this, he suddenly felt something was wrong and hurriedly tried to pull Changshan back. But at this time, there was no time. No matter how hard he tried, the long body didn't move at all.
"Little Li Shimin, please die!"
Hu Yanzhuo laughed loudly and exerted force on his arms. Li Shimin felt his palm go numb, and the long stick in his hand had been snatched away and flew forward several feet away.
After losing the weapon in his hand, Li Shimin naturally would not fight Hu Yanzhuo anymore, so he immediately turned his horse's head and fled away.
"Li Shimin, please leave!"
Hu Yanzhuo shouted loudly and chased after him. But compared to speed, after all, the leg strength of Li Shimin's crotch mount was superior. Seeing that Li Shimin was running further and further away, Hu Yanzhuo immediately hung up his whips, took the bow in his hand, unstringed the arrow, and shot Li Shimin with a sure eye.
Li Shimin was highly skilled in bow and arrow, and he was very familiar with the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air. So when he heard the noise behind him, he immediately reined in his horse and ducked to the side.
"The traitor will not hurt His Highness the King of Qin, Yuchi Gong is here!"
Hu Yanzhuo shot an arrow in the air, and when he was about to take out an arrow from the arrow pot and shoot again, a thunderous sound suddenly sounded in his ears. Hu Yanzhuo's vision went dark, and a figure like an iron tower rushed to him, and the iron whip in his hand struck down with fierce murderous intent.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Yu Chigong has entered the state of protecting the master. His force is +6, his base force is 97, and his current force has increased to 103."
"Ding dong, it is detected that Hu Yanzhuo was caught off guard, the force is -8, and the current force is reduced to 91."
At the critical moment, Hu Yanzhuo had no time to think about it and quickly raised the horn bow in his hand to parry.
There was just a "snap" sound, and the horn bow in Hu Yanzhuo's hand was smashed into two pieces by Yuchi Gong. The iron whip did not lose its force and hit Hu Yanzhuo's chest hard. Hu Yanzhuo immediately screamed, vomited blood, fell off his horse and died.
"Ding dong, it was detected that the host's subordinate Hu Yanzhuo was killed by Yuchi Gong. The host received 10 soul points. The current total number of soul points has increased to 237."
"Your Highness King Qin, are you okay?"
Yuchi Gong beheaded Hu Yanzhuo, immediately rode up to catch up with Li Shimin, and asked in a low voice.
"Jingde, I let you save me again!"
Li Shimin slowly stopped his horse and turned to look at Hu Yanzhuo's motionless body not far away. His eyes were full of determination and he laughed loudly: "Gu is the son of destiny. No one in the world can take down Gu." Life, no one!”
"Long live His Highness the King of Qin, the Tang Dynasty will surely win!"
As soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, someone not far away shouted loudly. Li Shimin followed the news and saw that his confidant Du Ruhui was also rushing up the mountain, escorted by Tan Zong and dozens of soldiers.
"We must win, we must win, we must win!"
Under the leadership of Du Ruhui, the morale of the Tang army was greatly boosted. Thunderous cheers erupted from the crowd. The Tang soldiers who had begun to show signs of fatigue suddenly felt as if they had been given a shot of blood, and the momentum of the attack became more fierce. .
"Your Highness King Qin, you are too impulsive!"
Du Ruhui walked until he was in front of Li Shimin and then whispered: "You are a rich man and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. How can you rush here at such a risk? Fortunately, Jingde is here, otherwise you would be here right now." It’s dangerous!”
Li Shimin smiled and said firmly: "Gu is the son of destiny. How can a group of clowns hurt Gu until something big is accomplished?"
Du Ruhui shook his head helplessly and said: "Your Highness, how can you believe these false words? Please put the overall situation first in the future and don't step into danger again, otherwise it will be too late!"
"Keming, time is running out right now, so I won't argue with you about this!"
Li Shimin waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Li Siyuan sent someone to tell Gu that the burning of Hulao Pass did not stop the Sui army for long. General Xue Rengui had already led 30,000 cavalry to kill him. Now Li Siyuan is trying his best to stop him, but Ping Gu is left to him The few soldiers and horses we have may not be able to withstand it for long. Taking advantage of the current morale, I immediately ordered the entire army to attack across the board, defeat Yang Yanzhao's troops in one go, and return with General Qu Tutong!"
Du Ruhui cupped his hands and said, "Yes!"
