Due to the lack of history in the Dragon Country, in order to be more convincing, we will try our best to show Mr. Li Shimin's life in detail.
Then, I will comment on his achievements. Please watch patiently.
It was the same situation as Zhu Di.
In the Heroic Spirit Ranking space, the historical projection played out again.
......
He saw a very young, high-spirited, and aristocratic youth.
It suddenly appeared in front of the world.
This young man was Li Shi Min when he was young.
At this time, he was only eighteen or nineteen years old.
Even by the standards of ancient times, he was still very young, especially in the aristocratic group with a long average life expectancy and on the battlefield.
However, his story as the legendary emperor of a generation had officially begun.
He could be called a true young hero. His valiant and heroic bearing could not help but make people fascinated.
......
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos. In order to avoid the uprising army, Emperor Yang went to Yangzhou to play around and deal with the situation passively.
At this time, the Hebei uprising army, Wagang army, Jianghuai uprising army crisscrossed all over the country. The Sui Dynasty was tired of dealing with them. Chang 'an, the western capital, and Luoyang, the eastern capital, were very empty due to the transfer of troops.
When the world was in chaos, it was the time for heroes to achieve the emperor's career. Li Yuan was ambitious and naturally did not want to miss this opportunity.
In the Li family army, Li Shimin was calm and meticulous, and was the most capable general by his father's side.
Although he was young and inexperienced, Li Yuan valued him very much and often asked him to go to the military tent to discuss the strategy of attacking and retreating the enemy with the old generals.
Li Shimin did not blindly obey the old general because of his humble position. He often bravely expressed his views on the war situation.
It could only be said that in ancient times, military talent often occupied a large part.
Li Shi Min was a genius general who was born with knowledge in military affairs.
And it was precisely because of his outspoken remonstrance that Li Yuan's first battle successfully destroyed the enemy and laid a solid foundation for the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.
When Li Yuan was an official in Taiyuan, the first strong opponent he met was someone called Song Laosheng.
Li Yuan had originally planned to break camp and attack Song Laosheng, but after the vanguard set off, the sky began to rain.
For a time, the road was muddy and there was a shortage of food. Li Yuan was very hesitant about whether to send troops.
At night, another piece of news came, adding insult to injury. His arch-enemy, Liu Wuzhou, had joined forces with the Turks to attack his retreat route.
With a strong enemy in front and pursuers behind, Li Yuan decided to retreat to Taiyuan and give up this opportunity to attack.
The generals did not object, but Li Shimin was a little confused. He advised his father,"The news that Liu Wuzhou wants to attack our retreat is likely to be a rumor. It's fake news that Song Laosheng deliberately released to stop our troops from sending troops. If we don't seize this opportunity to annihilate Song Laosheng's army, there will be endless trouble in the future!”
Li Yuan felt that Li Shimin was young and frivolous, so he flatly refused his advice.
Li Shimin remonstrated several times, but Li Yuan did not accept it.
The withdrawal order was about to be issued. Li Shimin was worried and couldn't sleep all night.
After a night of thinking, he decided to persuade his father again.
When it was almost dawn, Li Shimin ran to the door of his father's tent. The guards did not let him in. In a hurry, he knelt at the door and cried.
Li Yuan was woken up by the sad cries outside the tent.
He put on his clothes and walked out, only to find Shimin kneeling on the ground and crying.
He helped his son up and asked him why he was so sad.
Li Shimin said with tears in his eyes,"I can't convince my father not to give up this great opportunity. I'm very sad."
After that, he once again analyzed the situation of this battle, as well as the pros and cons, to his father in detail and earnestly, hoping that his father would withdraw the withdrawal order.
Li Yuan was much calmer than before. Under his son's persuasion, he finally decided to continue attacking Song Laosheng.
......
The situation at that time was like this.
Song Laosheng, the general of the Sui Dynasty who was guarding Huo Yi, had 30,000 elite soldiers. Qu Tutong was guarding the east of the river with nearly 100,000 soldiers. The two of them attacked Li Yuan together.
Old Song was good at defense, and Li Yuan's army launched a series of powerful attacks, but they were all defeated.
The Tang army was defeated in Huoyi, and the northern Turks and Liu Wuzhou's group were eyeing them covetously.
They waited for an opportunity to attack Taiyuan and threaten Li Yuan's rear.
At this time, the weather was not good. It rained heavily and the roads were muddy. The grain transportation of the Tang army encountered great difficulties.
Many people in Li Yuan's group were shaken. They wanted to return to Taiyuan and not continue south.
"Zi Zhi Tong Jian" recorded: "It is better to save the root, and plan to move later", Li Yuan also had the idea of going home at this time.
However, Li Yuan wanted to withdraw his troops, but Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin disagreed. They believed that once they withdrew, the entire army would collapse. Even if they retreated back to Taiyuan, they would only be trapped in the isolated city and besieged by the Sui army, the Turks, and Liu Wuzhou. It was only a matter of time before they perished.
Moreover, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin also thought: Old Song is brave and good at fighting, but he is not wise. As long as we use the "goading method" and provoke him continuously below the city, he will definitely lead his troops out and fight us.
If Senior Song holds the city, we will spread rumors that he is ready to surrender to the Tang army and put him in a passive position. As long as Senior Song dares to fight in the open, we have the confidence to win.
"The two of them were forced to return to the north, but were stopped by the two of them.”
"I was afraid that Song Laosheng would not come out, so I adopted the plan of the two sons to lure him out with light cavalry.”
In this battle, Li Jiancheng and Li Shiming worked together. Not only did they make their father Li Yuan give up on retreating, but they also proposed a plan to defeat the enemy and attack the city together. This proved that they had a good relationship and were on the same page on major military issues.
Perhaps it was because of the brotherly respect between the two brothers that Li Yuan had the illusion that this could continue.
This included Li Yuan's attitude towards his two sons in the future. He would also try his best not to favor either of them.
He wanted to follow the ancient tradition and let his eldest son inherit his family business.
However, in the face of his second son who had rendered meritorious service, he would not be stingy with his rewards.
However, he did not expect it to end up in a tragedy.
But that was all for the future.
At this moment, the Li family was still in the prime of its life, and its two sons were young heroes who assisted their father wholeheartedly. It was a prosperous scene.
......
Moreover, with the cooperation of the two handsome brothers, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin, they had achieved great results.
It could be said that it helped Li Yuan's pursuit of the world to start off well.
First, Li Jiancheng led the elite cavalry to the east gate and scolded Song Laosheng. He used the " goading method " to lure the Sui army into battle.
Elder Song was furious. He opened the city gate and faced the Tang army.
At this moment, Song was still more rational. He did not leave the city, but formed a formation with his back against the city, not giving the Tang army a chance.
Thus, Li Jiancheng pretended to retreat and lured Song Laosheng into chasing after him.
Li Jiancheng pretended to retreat, and Song Laosheng really thought that the Tang army could not withstand a single blow, so he personally led the main force to pursue.
Li Shimin came to reinforce at the right time and launched a surprise attack from the rear, causing the Sui army to fall into chaos.
Song Laosheng was defeated and retreated to the south gate. In the end, he accidentally fell into the moat and was beheaded by the Tang army.
Song Laosheng was killed, and the Sui army was not in the mood to fight. At this point, Huo Yi was captured by Li Yuan.
This was also the first city that Li Yuan had conquered since the uprising.
As for the credit, it would go to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.
