Several days had passed since Li Tang announced the start of the war.
Many civil and military officials were gathered in the meeting hall of the Public House of Tang, including the three Li brothers.
"How's the situation?"
Li Yuan asked as he glanced at everyone.
It had been several days since the announcement of the uprising. It was time for some feedback.
"Replying to Tang Gong, from the moment we announced the start of the war until now, with the support of the various aristocratic families, we have been able to obtain a lot of resources.”
"Our army currently has eighty thousand soldiers.”
Liu Hongji stepped forward and reported.
"The army is very strong."
Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.
Eighty thousand troops was indeed a lot for Li Tang, who had just started his army.
"Good!"
Li Yuan stroked his beard and smiled.
"Phew!"
The three brothers of the Li family were even more breathless. This was the huge appeal of the aristocratic families.
"Tang Gong, now that the time is ripe, our army can officially send out troops.”
Pei Ji suggested.
Previously, with the banner established and the military strength, they could indeed expand their dominance.
"Father, I agree."
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin stepped forward to agree.
"Good!"
"Then how do you think our army should send troops?”
Li Yuan asked without hesitation.
"Since the Eldest Miss is fighting Liu Wuzhou in the north of Bingzhou, why don't we start from Xihe Prefecture?”
Zhang Shigui suggested.
"That's right. While taking down the entire Bing Province, we can also advance toward Daxing City.”
Liu Hongji echoed.
"Not bad."
Li Shimin nodded. This was the most profitable way for the Tang army to advance.
"Alright, since no one has any objections, then we will send out 50,000 troops to West River Prefecture.”
Li Yuan ordered as he came up with a plan.
As for the remaining 30,000 troops, they were enough to defend Taiyuan.
"Yes."
Everyone responded to this.
"Liu Hongji, Tang Jian, you two stay in Taiyuan.”
Li Yuan thought for a moment and continued.
With the civil and military forces working together, Taiyuan would not be in trouble.
"Yes."
The two of them stepped forward and received this military order.
"The remaining 50,000 troops and the rest will follow me out.”
"Yes!"
Everyone responded.
Zhang Shigui and Hou Junji were brimming with fighting spirit.
"Jiancheng, Shimin, follow me to the battlefield.”
Li Yuan continued after seeing his third son's anticipation.
The reason why he brought all of them there was to train his third son.
"Yes, your son."
The three brothers were overjoyed.
"Quickly gather our forces and prepare to set off.”
Li Yuan stood up and shouted.
Then, everyone left the hall and began to mobilize their troops.
After the army was assembled, the Tang army marched directly toward Hexi County.
"Stomp…"
In Fufeng County, Master Shang and his disciple led the army to Ji Mountain.
When they approached the ambush location, their actions were just as Yue Fei had expected.
There were many scouts who would carry out reconnaissance to prevent any ambushes.
"General, we haven't found any traces.”
The scouts of the Sui army returned one by one and began to report the situation.
"I understand."
Regarding this, Master and disciple Shang expressed that they understood.
"General, there are still a few places ahead. Should we investigate?”
the scouts asked.
"No need."
Master Shang and disciple waved their hands and said.
There were several excellent ambush points, but there were no Han soldiers to ambush them, let alone behind them.
Moreover, the ambush area behind them was a plain, and they could not use the rolling stones. Would the Han army choose such a place to ambush?
Continuing the search would only be a waste of time, and time was very precious to Sui Jun.
"Yes."
Following these scouts, the Sui army continued to advance and even increased their speed.
"They really came. They didn't send anyone to check.”
Li Cunxiao, who was hiding in the dark, saw Sui Jun's actions.
He couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect that General Yue had really predicted it.
As Sui Jun's speed increased, the other party quickly entered the ambush circle.
"Attack!"
Seizing the opportunity, Yue Fei shouted.
"Kill them!"
The Bei Wei Army rushed out, charging straight at the unprepared Sui Army. The Bei Wei Army in the middle of the charge started shooting.
The arrows flew out like raindrops, hitting the unprepared Sui army in a large area.
After the arrows, before the Sui Army could react, the Bei Wei Army came close again.
The whole process was done in one go, and Sui Jun was stunned.
From the beginning to the end, they could only feel the ground trembling as if Jishan was about to collapse.
"Enemy attack!"
"Quickly get into a defensive formation. Cavalry, welcome the enemy.”
Upon seeing this, Master Shang and his disciple were the first to react.
"Hualala…"
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of crisp sounds rang out.
The Bei Wei Army took out a special chain with barbs at the front.
They suddenly threw out their chains and attacked the Sui army.
The chains wrapped around the warhorses of the Sui cavalrymen, and the barbs on them pierced into the flesh of the warhorses.
"Phew…"
As blood splattered and the warhorses cried out, the Sui cavalry could not move.
If the cavalry in the front row did not move, how could the cavalry in the rear charge?
The Mountain-Carrying Cavalry did not stand on ceremony. They raised their long knives and waved at Sui Jun's head.
"Pfft…"
For a time, screams rose and fell, and countless heads rolled to the ground.
Without the assistance of the cavalry, the Sui army's infantrymen could only be killed.
"Ah…"
Screams rose and fell one after another. The Sui army fell to the ground in groups. The faces of Shang and his disciple turned pale in an instant.
"This powerful cavalry is the Han army?”
The Shang Master and his disciple were shocked. The combat strength of these cavalrymen far surpassed the combat strength of the Sui army.
From the beginning to the end, the Han cavalry's attacks were as fierce as fire. Before anyone could react, they were basically about to announce their defeat.
"Die!"
Li Cunxiao roared and charged into the depths of the enemy army alone as usual.
He seemed to kill anyone he saw. From his bloody appearance, it was unknown how many people he had killed.
Most importantly, he was still charging towards the Shang Master and disciple.
"Hiss!"
"Yuwen Cheng is only so-so, right?”
Upon seeing this, the Shang Master and disciple sucked in a breath of cold air.
"Puchi, puchi!"
The Sui army's infantry had already suffered heavy losses in this short period of time. The cavalry could easily deal with the Sui army's cavalry, let alone the infantry.
"Retreat!"
Master and disciple Shang finally had the intention to retreat.
However, Yue Fei was leading the 5,000 Wei Back Army in the rear, and Li Cunxiao's 5,000 Wei Back Army was in front. How could they retreat so easily?
Moreover, the mountain path of Ji Mountain was not wide. It was easy to enter but difficult to exit.
"Where are you going!"
At this moment, Li Cunxiao had already arrived. King Yu Shuo called out to Shang and his disciple.
"Clang!"
He was a hero ranked tenth. Even though he knew that the other party was powerful, the Shang Master and disciple still raised their furnace spears and took the initiative to meet him.
A crisp sound rang out as the two weapons clashed. He felt a sharp pain in his thumb and forefinger as a hidden force attacked him.
Unable to stabilize his body, he almost fell off the horse.
"What kind of strength is this?"
Master and disciple Shang couldn't help but exclaim.
Li Cunxiao didn't stop attacking. He picked up King Yu Shuo and attacked again.
[P.S. Tomorrow is Tuesday, 12 noon. I hope all the handsome big shots will come to support us.]
In addition, can we get the previous wave of data?
