Great Tang, the ninth year of Wude.
July.
Li Shi Min had already initiated the Black Tortoise Gate incident and ascended the throne!
Then, he made his eldest son, Li Ye, the Crown Prince and announced it to the world.
In the same year,
The Turkic Jie Li Khan led his army south and invaded the territory of the Tang Empire. The whole country was shocked. Li Shimin was furious and ordered Prince Li Ye to guard Youzhou.
Crown Prince Li Ye received the decree!
Next month, a fierce battle would break out on the city walls of Youzhou.
The Turkic army surrounded Youzhou City.
Crown Prince Li Ye had been guarding Youzhou for a month!
Now,
After running out of ammunition and rations, the entire Youzhou Province fell into a desperate atmosphere!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Attack! Everyone attacked in one go and massacred the city!!”
"Kill all the two-legged sheep!”
A series of explosive shouts rang out continuously.
These were the arrogant shouts of the Turkic army below the walls.
They had been attacking the city for a month.
Now,
Seizing Youzhou, they only needed to work hard and Youzhou would be defeated!
During this month, Crown Prince Li Ye led 10,000 soldiers from Youzhou and countless citizens of Youzhou to defend the city!
Blood dyed the ground red…
However, a whole month had passed. Even the Youzhou Iron Army had suffered heavy casualties and could not hold on any longer!
Li Ye's voice was hoarse, and his eyes were red." Have the reinforcements arrived?" he asked.!”
Beside him,
" Not yet, Your Highness." Lou Gao, the general of the Iron Army of Youzhou, said with a hoarse voice." There are no traces of reinforcements…"
Li Ye gritted his teeth and shouted,"Send it again!" Continue to send scouts out and get reinforcements from the Imperial Court!”
How could Youzhou hold off an army of tens of thousands?!
They needed reinforcements!
However…
The high-ranking official of the General Tower laughed and cried at the same time. His eyes were red." Your Highness, we have sent out five teams of scouts. It has been a month. The news should have reached Chang 'an a long time ago. It should be enough time for reinforcements to come and go..."
"Your Highness, where did the reinforcements come from?”
"There are no reinforcements at all!"
"Youzhou has been abandoned by the Imperial Court!!”
Lou Gaojian was laughing and crying miserably.
The Imperial Court had abandoned Youzhou.
Youzhou had been betrayed by the Imperial Court.
When Li Ye heard this, his eyes turned red and he clenched his fists tightly!
How could he not know this?
He knew that a month was enough for the reinforcements from the Imperial Court to come and go. But in reality, they had defended Youzhou for an entire month…
However, no reinforcements came!
Wasn't this already abandoned by the Imperial Court? What else could it be?!
"Haha…"
" Hehehehe, defending our country to the death, but this is the end result…"
Crown Prince Li Ye suddenly laughed bitterly and shouted.
For Li Ye, the iron army of Youzhou City and all the commoners in Youzhou City, this ending was really a pity…
How sorrowful!
They had been guarding their territory, but they found that Youzhou City had been abandoned by the imperial court!
How tragic!
"Clang!"
At this moment, Li Ye reached out and pulled out the sword at his waist.
He stared resolutely at the densely packed Turkic army below the city walls!
" My fellow countrymen…" Li Ye's voice was cold and hoarse.
"Let's fight to the death!"
"This war is not for the Imperial Court or the Great Tang, but for ourselves!”
"Just for the dignity of the Han people!”
Boom!
As soon as he said this.
Youzhou City seemed to have fallen silent. Everyone's eyes were red as they stared at Crown Prince Li Ye.
And then…
General Lou Gao Deng of the Iron Army of Youzhou wiped his tears and shouted," People of Youzhou, fight to the death! Fight for the Han people!”
"The Crown Prince has ordered us to fight for the Han!”
All the remaining iron troops and commoners in Youzhou City were killed.
One by one, they laughed bitterly.
They all raised their weapons and shouted…
"Fight for the Han!"
"Fight for the Han!"
"Fight for the Han!"
Everyone was prepared to die!
At the same time, the Turkic army increased the speed of its assault, its offensive power instantly increasing!
In Youzhou City, everybody was fighting with all their might.
Three days later, Youzhou City was conquered.
Crown Prince Li Ye had personally led his army to fight the Turkic army, causing the Turkic army to tremble in fear and stain their clothes with blood…
There were almost no casualties!
Five days later, Li Ye and the rest of the army were all killed. Jie Li Khan ordered a massacre of the city, leaving no survivors. Youzhou was massacred, and corpses were scattered all over the ground!
All the 100,000 heroic spirits in Youzhou City had fought to the end…
He would not rest until he died!
Ten days later.
When the Turkic army retreated, the Great Tang's Chang 'an finally learned of the situation in Youzhou and was shocked!
Crown Prince Li Ye had died!
More than 10,000 soldiers of the Youzhou Iron Army had all died!
Tens of thousands of civilians in Youzhou City were killed!
100,000 heroic spirits had all died!
Li Shi Min was furious and roared,"Jie Li Khan, I will fight you to the death!"!”
No one knew.
In the place where 100,000 heroic spirits died in Youzhou Province, a pair of bloody hands…
Crawl out from here!
His eyes were cold and bloodshot. He wanted to live, and he wanted to investigate this matter personally…
Why did Youzhou not have any reinforcements?
Why did he let the hundred thousand heroic spirits of Youzhou die tragically?!
