A new book! Sob, sob, sob!
The next day.
Chang 'an City.
A horse galloped over from afar.
"Great victory! A great victory! Great victory!"
Good news has arrived in Chang 'an!
Imperial City, inside the royal study.
Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin, Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the other Great Generals were gathered together, discussing how to deal with the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers.
Chang 'an's garrison was empty. Even with the 10,000 elite soldiers that Yuchi Gong had taken with him, there were only 40,000 of them, which was only one-fifth of the Turkic army. The disparity in strength was too great. No matter how brave Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing were, they could only grimace and be helpless in the face of such a great disparity in strength.
"Da! Da! Da!"
The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly rang out, and an old eunuch rushed in." Your Majesty, a great victory! A great victory in Jingyang!”
"What?! A great victory?" Li Shi Min stood up excitedly, his voice cracking,"Quickly read out the information to Zhen and the ministers!”
"…The King of Zhao is brave. He led twenty of his personal guards and charged into the Turkic army of nearly ten thousand. He looked down on the enemy and beheaded the enemy generals, killing fifteen thousand Turkic barbarians. Under the might of the King of Zhao, the Turkic barbarians all knelt down and begged to surrender…"
Li Shi Min and the others were excited at first, but when they heard Li Yuan Jing's name, they frowned.
Obviously, they did not think that Li Yuanjing was that capable!
For a moment, the royal study fell silent again.
All of them frowned and looked at each other. They could see a thick suspicion in their eyes.
"Da! Da! Da!"
The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard again. Another old eunuch rushed in." Your Majesty, General Yuchi has sent a battle report!”
"Quick, hand over the battle report!"
Li Shi Min said as he hurriedly read the battle report from Yuchi Gong.
One breath!
Two breaths!
Three breaths!
Three breaths later.
Li Shi Min suddenly raised his head and laughed. What a good King of Zhao, finding an army of 10,000 to behead an enemy general. What a good person who dares to offend our Great Tang, even if he is far away, he must be killed. Good! Good! Hahahahaha!"
At the side.
Zhangsun Wuji and the others were all shocked.
……
Two days later.
Jingyang, on the city wall of the North City.
Li Yuanjing and Yuchi Gong stood shoulder to shoulder.
Although Li Yuanjing was only 14 years old, his height and physique were not inferior to Yuchi Gong, a general who had experienced hundreds of battles.
"It's coming!"
Li Yuanjing suddenly said as he looked towards the north.
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Yuchi Gong was stunned at first, then he narrowed his eyes and carefully looked towards the north.
However, he did not see anything.
Just as he was about to ask, the ground shook slightly.
As a veteran Great General, Yuchi Gong naturally understood what this meant. The true Turkic army was coming!
Immediately after.
From the north, at the furthest end, a black line emerged.
The black line became thicker and thicker.
No, no, no, no!
This was not a black line!
This was a huge cavalry.
Two hundred thousand Turkic cavalry had arrived.
"He, he actually…"
Yuchi Gong's eyes widened as he watched the Turkic army charge over. He glanced at the calm Li Yuanjing and was shocked."His Highness the Zhao King was actually able to sense the arrival of the Turkic army before me? T-t-just how sharp is he? Moreover, His Highness was only 14 years old, and he was already like this. This, this…was simply a monster!”
The two hundred thousand Turkic cavalry were about a kilometer away from Jingyang City. They split into three groups, fifty thousand on the left and fifty thousand on the right. They charged at the western and eastern walls, while the remaining one hundred thousand charged at the northern walls.
A horseman galloped out of the Turkic army and arrived a hundred meters below Jingyang City.
"Tang, the great Khan gives you five breaths to open the city gates and surrender. Otherwise, when the city falls, it will be the time to slaughter the city!”The Turkic soldier arrogantly roared at Li Yuanjing and the others.
"Why does this sound so familiar?”
Li Yuanjing's face was full of playfulness. He stepped forward and walked to the front of the city wall. He said,"If this king remembers correctly, this king heard this sentence three days ago. En, let me think, that guy seems to be called Ashiduwu or something, right? Unfortunately, that guy was too weak. He was killed by this king in one move!”
"Damned Tang, you'll regret this!”
The Turkic soldier paled and immediately returned to the Turkic army.
The Turkic army did not immediately attack the city.
The first thing he had to do after traveling thousands of miles was to have a full meal.
Only after eating and drinking would they have the strength to fight.
Everyone tensed up as they watched the Turkic army set up camp and eat without restraint.
Without a doubt, this battle was not easy to fight!
The difference in strength was too great.
Jingyang City only had 3,000 soldiers. With Yuchi Gong's 10,000 reinforcements and the 5,000 militia that had been recruited at the last minute, there were less than 20,000 soldiers in total.
And the Turks had a total of two hundred thousand!
"Oh right, County Magistrate Han!"
Li Yuanjing suddenly thought of something. He slapped his head and shouted.
"Your Highness!" Han Yucheng hurriedly replied.
"Bring some men to this king's courtyard and place all the treasures on the city walls!”Li Yuanjing ordered.
Although Han Yucheng was puzzled, he still called the soldiers to Li Yuanjing's courtyard out of trust.
"Your Highness, may I know what treasure it is?”Yuchi Gong was puzzled.
Li Yuanjing smiled mysteriously and said,""Machine! Close! Crossbow!"
" Machine crossbow!?" Yuchi Gong frowned.
