In the offensive and defensive battles of the city, some unexpected situations often occur, which affects the situation and causes the entire city to change hands. This situation can also be called the "black swan event" of the city defense battle.
For example, in history, Liu Wuzhou captured Taiyuan City because the powerful people in the city accidentally offered the city, which led to Liu Wuzhou, who was unable to attack the city, occupied Taiyuan City, and thus his strength soared.
Today, the 'Black Swan Incident' also occurred in Hulao Pass, and Li Xuanba became the protagonist of this incident.
The difference is that this incident was completely planned by Li Jing's heart, using Li Xuanba's noble identity and his martial arts genius style, using Luo Shixin as bait to lure Li Xuanba out of the city to fight.
It doesn’t matter what method is used, what is important is the final result. As it turns out, Li Jing’s plan was completely successful.
Qu Tutong was the first time he encountered such a headache in more than 30 years. Li Xuanba seemed to live in a place isolated from the world. What he thought was his own will, and he never thought about it.
The impact on the battle situation is not considered.
No wonder when he went to war, the King of Qin apologized and told him, "My brother is arbitrary and has no mind. I hope the old general will be more tolerant."
Now Qu Tutong understands the meaning of Qin King's words. Li Xuanba is indeed acting recklessly. How can he let him out of seclusion and fight at this time? Qu Tutong shouted loudly, "Don't turn on and off, take him down for me!"
At the gate of the city, Li Xuanba was already crazy. Luo Shixin's provocation made him completely lose his mind. He swung his hammer and smashed it at the city gate. "Boom!" With a loud bang, the city gate swayed and the dust blew.
It fell down, and there was no one around, and there were more than a dozen soldiers who were killed by him lying on the ground.
At this time, hundreds of soldiers approached him timidly, and someone shouted: "Your Highness, King Zhao. Go back! Don't make things difficult for us."
"Li Xuanba, are you scared by me?" Luo Shixin's shout came from outside the city.
Li Xuanba's eyes were blood red. He suddenly turned around, roared, rushed into the group of soldiers, swinged the hammer, smashed wildly, and his brain burst, and his flesh was blurred. The soldiers screamed in pain, corpses everywhere, hundreds of
The soldiers were beaten to flee.
More than twenty soldiers were blocked in the city cave by him. They were so scared that they knelt down and kowtowed, begging, "Your Highness, please spare me! Please spare me!"
Li Xuanba roared angrily. "Open the city gate for me, otherwise I will kill you!"
The soldiers were so scared that they rushed forward, pulled off the iron door bolt and pushed it hard. The city gate of Hulaoguan opened, but the suspension bridge was still pulled and could not go out directly.
Li Xuanba didn't care. He rushed out of the city gate, ran close to the city wall, and ran to the southmost point. In front was a trench that was one meter wide. He leaped on his horse, and his war horse crossed the trench, turned his head and killed Luo Shixin.
Go and shouted loudly: "Little Luo, fight to the death with me!"
Luo Shixin laughed and said, "Crazy, let's go to the old place to fight to the decisive battle!"
He turned his horse's head and ran towards Sishui Town. Li Xuanba shouted like thunder and chased him closely behind.
As soon as Li Xuanba rushed out of the city, Qu Tutong rode down on horseback. Several soldiers shouted anxiously: "Elder General, King Zhao is out!"
Qu Tutong was extremely anxious. He had already seen 30,000 Sui troops peeking at the other end like a pack of wolves. Li Xuanba turned a blind eye, which made him sigh in his heart, "It's really a fool!"
"Put down the suspension bridge!"
Qu Tutong shouted loudly, and he turned around and waved to the thousands of cavalry behind him, "You go with me to save King Zhao!"
Duan Zhixuan rushed up from the side, grabbed Qu Tutong's reins and said anxiously: "Old General, if you go out to save him now, you will hit the Sui army's trick!"
Qu Tutong said helplessly: "He is the third son of the priest. If we don't save him, how can we explain to the priest and how can we explain to the queen?"
"The old general is the chief general, let Bei Yi save him!"
Qu Tutong shook his head, "I have to save him before I can explain to the emperor that you will be guarding the city gate. If you can't defend it, I won't blame you, but you don't need to save me. Just withdraw your troops back to Luoyang, I will do it myself.
Go and find the Tang army in Xiangyang!"
After saying that, he shouted and led three thousand troops out of the city.
Li Jing led an army of 30,000 and had been waiting two miles away from the northeast for a long time. He used open conspiracy. He had also guided Li Xuanba for two days of martial arts and knew him very well. He had been a fool since childhood.
Son, if you are crazy about martial arts, as long as you anger him, he will surely break out of the city and no one can stop him.
Li Xuanba is King Zhao, Li Yuan's third son. The veteran Qu Tutong will save him no matter what. Li Jing narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard and smiled without saying a word, waiting for Li Xuanba to leave the city, waiting for Qu Tutong, the old man
The turtle enters the net.
At this time, a soldier shouted: "General, the city gate is open!"
The gate of Hulao Pass opened wide, and an enemy general rushed out of the city and ran along the wall. It was Li Xuanba. Li Jing was overjoyed and turned around and ordered: "Three Army men, prepare to kill!"
Just as Li Xuanba rushed out of the city, the suspension bridge was put down, and a Tang cavalry rushed out of the city. The leader was the veteran Qu Tutong. He shouted anxiously: "Your Highness, please take a step slowly!"
"kill!"
Li Jing roared and urged his horse to rush forward. The 30,000 Sui troops behind him burst into earth-shaking shouts, rushing towards the city gate.
Qu Tutong was in a state of extreme distress. On the one hand, the Sui army launched a large-scale attack on the battlefield, while on the other hand, Li Xuanba gradually ran away. Should he save or not? If he saves, he may lose Hulao Pass.
If you don’t save it, it’s still time to close the city gate, but Li Xuanba will undoubtedly die.
Qu Tutong seemed to have seen the tragic phenomenon of Li Xuanba being killed by the Sui army's ambush, and he made a fuss. He finally made up his mind. For nothing, those who are ministers have no loyalty to the king. They lose their duty as ministers first. What's the use of defending the city.
?
He shouted, "Run with me!"
He accelerated his horse and led a thousand cavalry to intercept the Sui army and chased after Li Xuanba. However, the army behind was intercepted by the Sui army, and the two armies fought fiercely at the city gate.
Qu Tutong ran for several miles and had gradually caught up with Li Xuanba. When he turned around, he saw that the Sui army had entered the city, which made him sigh... Li Xuanba rushed to Sishui Town, and Luo Shixin had already
He was yelling in anger. At this moment, a clapper sound came from a distance. Hundreds of Sui army hiding in the dark were fired in a row, and dense arrows were aimed at Li Xuanba she
Come.
Li Xuanba was shocked. He waved the hammer and called the arrow, and then urged the horse to run fast. But just a few steps, an arrow first hit the horse's neck. The war horse was incredibly painful, and his front hooves were raised high, and he screamed loudly.
The opportunity to escape was lost at this moment, and seven or eight arrows hit the war horse at the same time. Even Li Xuanba was hit two arrows in a row. The war horse fell down with a bang, crushing Li Xuanba under his body, and the sledgehammer also took off his hand.
He had to use a sledgehammer to protect his head and struggled to get up.
Hundreds of ambushers rushed up from both sides shouting, and countless spears poked at him. Li Xuanba's legs were pressed down by the war horses, half sitting on the ground, swinging his hammer with one hand to fight with the Sui soldiers. At this moment,
Qu Tutong led his army to kill, and Qu Tutong shouted in an anxious voice. "Don't hurt my master!"
He waved his horse spear to kill him and stabbed several Sui soldiers in a row. Seeing that the Tang army reinforcements had arrived, there was no hope of assassinating Li Xuanba, he had to shout. "Retreat!"
Hundreds of Sui troops retreated from both sides to the forest behind and ran away in an instant. At this time, Li Xuanba was protected by more than a hundred Tang troops. He was shot three arrows, wearing dozens of guns, and was already bloody.
Qu Tutong knew that this place could not be kept for a long time. He ordered people to carry Li Xuanba on his horse, wrap it with a cloak, and lead the army to run eastward... Hulao Pass has fallen, and the Sui army once again occupied this.
At the Xiong Pass of the Central Plains, Duan Zhixuan led the Tang army to retreat, killing and injured more than a thousand people.
In the pass, Li Jing walked to a well. There was water in the well. Cheng Yaojin led more than a hundred soldiers to draw water storage. After the last painful lesson, he regarded the storage of water as particularly important. Li Jing smiled and said, "No need to save it anymore."
There is water, and Qu Tutong has stored enough water. If you hit the water, there is no place to store it."
"I will let my brothers fill all the water bags first!"
The weather was too hot, Li Jing found a big rock in the cold place of Yin to sit down, Cheng Yaojin also sat down beside him, fanned with his helmet, and whispered: "The weather for this bitch is too hot
, It wasn't that hot last year and the previous year, when will it go?"
Li Jing smiled slightly, "The war started in such a hot weather, which is actually a test of the willpower of the army. Li Xiaogong's Jingxiang army is mostly from Bashu. They may not be able to adapt to this hot weather, but our army is more heat-resistant than them.
The time is beneficial to us, and the northern army is tall and sharp, with fewer flat rivers in Bashu, and unfavorable cavalry. Fighting on the plains, the geographical advantage gives us an advantage. As for morale, fighting power and combat experience, we are absolutely stronger than them.
So although we have few troops, I am very confident... You guys, be careful not to get dirty things into the well!" Cheng Yaojin's roar came from next to him.
Li Jing stopped talking all of a sudden. He glanced at Cheng Yaojin. Seeing that he was absent-minded, he didn't listen to him at all. He had to smile bitterly and turn the topic away, "Old Cheng, this time the Hulao is shut down, you got it.
What lessons are you taught?”
"He has learned a deep lesson!"
Cheng Yaojin sighed with lingering fear and said to Li Jing: "Now I understand what it means to have no surplus food at home. It is difficult to celebrate the New Year. In the future, the family should save more money and food. If any disaster occurs, it will cause death.
of."
Li Jing was stunned, shook his head for a while and said, "Your ideas are always unique. Other generals have remembered the important things in defending the city's water source through this cutoff. Pay attention to the water source terrain. You are good, the lessons learned.
It’s because the family wants to save money and food.”
Li Jing finally couldn't help laughing, Cheng Yaojin scratched his head and laughed dryly... Dou Xianniang stood in a corner of the city, looking anxiously into the distance, her eyes were full of worry,
She knew that Luo Shixin's internal injuries had not healed, and if he competed with Li Xuanba again, it would be very dangerous.
At this time, she saw a large group of soldiers running out of the distant mountain road. The leader held a big hammer in his hand. She was shocked. When the person came to the scene, the leader was Luo Shixin, holding a
Only Li Xuanba's iron hammer, smiling. The wind, she patted her chest gently, turned around and ran down the city, and quietly headed towards the back camp... to be continued) rq
