Chapter 504: The Great Breaking Down the City

"Your Majesty, you have killed all of them, and no one left to live." Feiying ran into the tent and reported to Li Hao with his fists.

Li Hao put down the brush in his hand and smiled and said, "Transfer all the bodies to the gate of the Li family's mansion. I want to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger. Humph, if you don't give them some color, they would think I am a soft persimmon."

"Yes!" Feiying was excited when she heard this. If she transported the corpses outside the Li family's mansion, it would be a slap in the face of Li's family in Zhao County. It was so satisfying to think about it. Feiying responded and immediately took the order and left.

It happened that at this moment, Di Renjie was outside the account. After hearing these words, he entered the account and asked, "Prince, do you know that these people were sent by Li?"

Li Hao nodded and raised his eyebrows: "Apart from them, no one else has the courage. Even if he has the courage, he does not have the strength. Five hundred people and they are equipped with bows and arrows, which is not a joke."

Di Renjie nodded and frowned and asked, "Prince, do you need a senior official to check it for you? If you can find out the evidence of Li's crime..."

"No need." Li Hao waved his hand solemnly, "You can't interfere in this matter."

"Yes..." Di Renjie wanted to speak but stopped.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Li Hao said, "What else do you have? Say it directly, don't hesitate."

Di Renjie said: "Prince, why are all your guards equipped with crossbows?"

In the Tang Dynasty, it was impossible for any guard of high-ranking officials to be equipped with crossbows, because crossbows were plug-ins in ancient times and strictly prohibited. Moreover, the production process of crossbows also limited the number of crossbows.

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "This crossbow was invented by me and was about to go back and present it to the emperor. Although this crossbow is not very powerful, it can be fired continuously, but the process is a little more complicated, but the choice of materials is not very strict. It is a very rare good thing. After I researched it, I made hundreds of samples and then prepared to present it to the emperor. Do you have any questions?"

"No more." Di Renjie shook his head.

"Then go back and rest." Li Hao waved his hand and sent him away.

"Yes." Di Renjie nodded helplessly and turned away from the camp.

After Di Renjie's footsteps went away, Ye Mengqiu frowned and said, "Prince, this Di Renjie... seems a little stunned."

"You are just stunned." Li Hao rolled his eyes and said, "He is loyal to the country but not loyal to me. If I devote myself to the country, I can become good friends with him. If I have any evil thoughts, he will be the first to jump out and oppose me. Di Renjie is loyal and righteous, just like Wei Zheng."

Ye Mengqiu said in surprise: "The prince actually compared him with you and Lord Wei Zheng?"

Li Hao nodded and smiled, "He can do it, don't look at him as a Dali Temple Master with sesame and green beans now. He will fly very high in the future."

Ye Mengqiu didn't believe it. Who can tell the future exactly, but he couldn't question Li Hao.

The next morning, Li Hao and the others set off normally, but the Li family in Zhao County was in an uproar. Suddenly, five hundred corpses appeared at the door, forming a mountain of corpses, blocking the gate. When the master of Li came out, he was shocked. No wonder there was no news about the dead soldiers sent out last night. It turned out that they were all dead and were sent to the house to demonstrate.

Li Liangfu, the master of the Li family, immediately convened an important member of the clan to hold a meeting. He discussed countermeasures about the failure of the sneak attack on Li Hao, and the conference room was silent.

After a long time, Li Liangfu sighed, "It's over, don't hold it in your mind. If you have anything to say, just say it."

As soon as this said, someone immediately said loudly: "I said, if you can't do this, Li Hao is not a good-looking person. He is an expert in warfare. How can he be useful to him when he uses martial arts!"

"Okay, third brother! Now it's not the time to get a hindsight, so it's useful to say something!"

"Master, I think Li Hao doesn't seem to be planning to break up with us. Although he knew that we were sending people to kill him, he had no evidence, otherwise he wouldn't have piled these bodies outside our mansion. He was warning us."

"Yes, he can't deal with us without evidence..."

"Master, let's send someone to inform Changsun Wuji and let him make a total of the bill for us."

"Yes, it's time to notify Changsun Wuji and ask him to help check it out. Who did the military newspaper we sent last time robbed..."

Li Hao's move shocked the tiger, which made the Li family of Zhao County panic. In addition, they had sent someone to send military newspapers to Changsun Wuji before, but they were robbed in Wuyanggang. They were even more worried that if they were exposed, they had to go on the road of Lu and Cui. This was not what they wanted, at least not until they had to do so, and they did not want to rebel.

Just as Li Hao headed all the way to Chang'an, northwest, on a wilderness at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, a 30,000 Western Turkic army was moving eastward.

Yang Long defeated Tuyuhun and asked for reinforcements from the Sanmishan royal court. The Western Turkic ministers disagreed and had been arguing. The Shabolu Khan Ashinahelu had been hesitating and delayed for nearly ten days. Ashinahelu finally decided to send reinforcements. The head coach of the reinforcements was Dilalarna.

Dilalna was wearing a silver armor and red cloak, riding a fire-like tall horse, walking in front of the army, heroic. Suddenly, she saw a huge stone tablet erected in front of her. She suddenly raised her hand and the army slowly stopped. This stone tablet was the national border monument established by Li Hao. He and Li Hao made a bet under the monument.

Dililarna brought her group to the stone tablet. After so many years of feng shui and rain, the words on the stone tablet are still clearly visible, as if sharp blades were pierced in the hearts of all Western Turkic soldiers.

"The territory of the Tang Dynasty, east of this world, is all the Tang Dynasty land. You and other foreign countries should not be easily violated. If you admire the civilization of China, you can come to the court with devout intentions. If you dare to seek the Tang Dynasty, you will destroy its clan. If you violate the power of our Tang Dynasty, you will be punished even if you are far away! In the 17th year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, Li Shi erected the monument here to alert all nations." Dililarna reached out and touched the inscription and slowly read it out. A sense of humiliation surged in his heart. However, the next moment, he remembered the scene of betting with Li Hao. Li Hao said that if he lost to him, he would marry him, but... the Khan had already given him a marriage to Garqinling. In a short time, Garqinling would come to marry her with a betrothal gift. She could not fulfill the bet she saw with Li Hao.

"I'm sorry, I can't fulfill my bet back then..." Dililarna looked at the inscription and felt sad in her heart. She knew that this was not good. After all, Li Hao was the biggest enemy of their Western Turks, but she just couldn't help it.

With a loud "date", a strong and sturdy man suddenly collided with a pair of pumpkin hammers in his hand, and then said loudly: "Master, please dodge it and let someone use a hammer to destroy this stone tablet. This stone tablet is the humiliation of the Tang Dynasty to our Western Turks!"

"Bastard!" Dililarna suddenly turned around and stared at him, shouting coldly, "Can you beat Li Hao? Do you want him to lead his troops to Sanmi Mountain in person!"

The strong man immediately shrank his head, as if he had done something wrong, and was wronged and scolded.

After Dilrahn scolded him, he said lightly: "If you want to break this monument, you can! Li Hao said that as long as someone in the Western Turks can defeat him, he can destroy this monument, otherwise he will definitely lead his troops to our Sanmi Mountain Royal Court."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and no one dared to mention the destruction of the monument.

"Let's go, continue the march. General Yang Long is still waiting for us to rescue in Fuqi City!" Dililarna turned around and kicked the horse in the belly and moved forward. The army started again and headed towards Fuqi City.

A fierce battle was going on beside the city of Fuqi, and after Li Shimin received the news of Xue Rengui's victory, Long Xin was very happy. He naturally responded to Xue Rengui's request for help. He immediately sent Li Daozong to lead 20,000 troops to reinforce Xue Rengui.

After nearly two months of trekking, Li Daozong's army finally arrived. Nearly 40,000 troops besieged Fuqi City, and they still surrounded three Que 1. Nuogebo in Fuqi City was so scared that he trembled all over. However, he refused to surrender. He knew that the Tang army was benevolent and righteous, and he was also Li Shimin's son-in-law. Even if he was defeated, Li Shimin would not kill him. At most, he would put him under house arrest in Chang'an, so he was still ready to take a try.

However, the Tang army's offensive was too fierce. Xue Rengui was brave and good at fighting, so there was no need to say much. This time, even Li Daozong was like a chicken blood. He had been holding it in for so many years and had to endure it and keep a low profile. After Li Hao returned to Chang'an, he sent a secret letter to inform him that he could make a name for himself, so he wanted to use this battle to endorse himself.

Li Daozong was already very talented in military talent, but he was influenced by his embarrassing identity for a long time and did not dare to let go. Now he completely believed in Li Hao, and he let go of his hands and feet. He actually seized the east wall of Fuqi City before Xue Rengui, and then broke the east gate of Fuqi City.

Garqinling, who was originally fighting to the death, heard that the East Gate was broken and knew that he was unable to turn the world. He immediately fled from the unguarded Ximen and headed towards Tubo with his remaining defeated generals.

Soon, Xue Rengui led his troops to capture the South Gate, Li Daozong captured the North Gate, and the Tang army entered the city, Yang Long and Nuogebo led their troops to escape from the west gate, and after leaving the city, they fled separately. Xue Rengui led their troops to chase Nuogebo, and Li Daozong led their troops to chase Yang Long.

Xue Rengui chased Nuogebo for twenty miles and finally caught up with the remnants of Nuogebo. Although Nuogebo still has 10,000 troops left, the ten thousand defeated generals have long been broken by the Tang army. His morale is low and he has no combat power at all. He is caught by the Tang army and fights, and many surrenders are numerous.

Nuogebo abandoned his army and continued to escape with more than a thousand remaining troops. Xue Rengui led hundreds of elite cavalry to chase him. Li Hao warned him that if he could take down Tuyuhun this time, he must take advantage of the chaos to kill Nuogebo, otherwise the matter of the fake Princess Honghua will definitely be missed.

He chased after another thirty miles and finally caught up with Nuogebo. After a conflict, the remaining Tuyuhun army was defeated. Nuogebo wanted to escape on a horse, but his horse was not as fast as Xue Rengui's horse. Xue Rengui rode his horse and started working to get an arrow. He directly pierced Nuogebo's left chest with one arrow. Nuogebo never expected that Tang Jun would do something to him. He looked back unwillingly, then fell off the horse, and there was no movement.

Xue Rengui rode his horse over, checked it, and confirmed that Nuogebo had died. Then he felt relieved. Then hundreds of cavalrymen came back with more than a hundred prisoners, and some people drove a carriage, which was the carriage of Princess Honghua. Although they captured Princess Honghua, she was the identity of Princess Tang, and Tang Jun could not make things difficult for her.

"The chief general, the enemy has been killed and captured 13 prisoners. There are also Princess Honghua's chariot. I wonder if the princess is in the chariot." A cavalry captain reported to Xue Rengui.

"Well, you all retreat, don't be shocked by the princess." Xue Rengui said, waved everyone away, then came to the carriage, and whispered to the carriage through the carriage, "Princess, to keep you safe, no matter what I say later." His voice was extremely small, and if it weren't for standing beside him, others wouldn't hear it at all.

"Yes." The person in the carriage nodded lightly, his voice was very small.

Then Xue Rengui walked to the carriage and saluted, saying loudly: "I will welcome Princess Honghua!"

I waited for a long time but no response.

Xue Rengui welcomed him again, but still didn't respond. Then Xue Rengui walked over and slightly picked up the curtain of the car. He saw "Princess Honghua" holding a baby in his arms and looking at Xue Rengui with horror.

Xue Rengui squeezed at him, then put down the curtain of the car and whispered: "The princess is not in the car, you guys go back and look around! You must find the princess!"

"Yes!" Except for Xue Rengui's more than 20 confidants, all the other soldiers and horses were scattered.
