Chapter 813: Xuanjia Army
But he said that Zhao She led the army to pursue Li Shimin, but when he was about to catch up, he chased him into a forest.
Zhao She saw birds circling over the woods and refusing to return to their nests for a long time, so Zhao She concluded that there was an ambush here.
Zhao She deliberately withdrew his troops five miles away, but secretly sent people to investigate. When the ambush troops retreated, he led the army back and immediately defeated Li Shimin's ambush team.
Zhao She's target for this pursuit was Li Shimin. After defeating the enemy, he naturally wanted to do his best, so after thinking deeply, he chose to continue the pursuit.
As for Zhao She's decision to continue pursuing, Lian Po, as an adjutant, strongly opposed it.
Lian Po thought that this place was too close to Hulao Pass, and there were a lot of fierce generals around Li Shimin, so it was unlikely that he could capture or even kill him alive. Besides, he didn't know if there would be any dangers ahead, so he might as well just leave it as soon as possible. .
Of course Zhao She knew this, but the enemy general Li Shimin was so close that he naturally refused to listen to Lian Po's dissuasion. The great victory made Zhao She relax, and as a result, he brought 10,000 cavalry into almost the entire army. The danger of annihilation.
“General, our retreat has been blocked by the Liang army.”
Zhao She lifted the soldier up and shouted an order: "Send the order to the rear to break out immediately."
“General Lian Po is already commanding the breakout, but he failed to break through several times.”
“How come you can’t rush out?” Zhao She asked anxiously.
“Li Shimin arranged a large number of archers at the intersection. The arrows fired were too dense, and the brothers were all confined in such a crowded place. The speed advantage could not be used at all. If they rushed up, they would be living targets.”
"Damn it, Li Shimin, you are so cruel." Zhao She said through gritted teeth. At this time, he finally realized how powerful Li Shimin was.
Li Shimin's control of the battle situation was too precise. If he didn't take action, Zhao She would face the danger of annihilation of the entire army. Zhao She had to be convinced.
Zhao She regretted not listening to Lian Po. Now he had to swallow the bitter fruit himself, but it was a pity for the cavalry warriors who had been trained so hard by him.
"Tell Lian Po to find a way to break out of the encirclement as soon as possible. I will hold on to this hillside for the rear army. If the Liang army wants to get over, they will have to step on my body."
Zhao She said with determination, he must bear the price of his greed for success.
“General…”
“Go quickly.” Zhao She roared.
)
Not far away, Li Shimin could not help but flash a glimmer of approval in his eyes when he saw that Zhao She decisively led his troops to dismount and defend, and also used the terrain to fight off several encirclement and suppression attacks.
"This man is a good general. If you pass on the order, he must be captured alive." Li Shimin ordered with a slight smile.
)
Although Li Shimin now has many talents under his command, he still has not forgotten the difficult times when no one had them. Therefore, when Li Shimin sees talents, he will subconsciously order to capture them alive, and will never miss any opportunity to capture good generals.
Yang Guang came over at this time and asked: "Shimin, why didn't you send a general, but just commanded the soldiers to attack? If our generals had sent out, I'm afraid this battle would have been over long ago." Li Shimin's generals at this time could be There are five war gods and more than a dozen **** generals, but there is only one Zhao She on the coalition side.
With a lineup like Liang's army, even a frontal attack was enough to kill Zhao She ten times. However, Li Shimin did not allow the generals to be dispatched. Instead, he personally directed the soldiers to surround and kill. This was time-consuming and laborious and increased casualties. It really made everyone People are confused.
A hint of coldness flashed across the corner of Li Shimin's mouth, and he smiled lightly: "It would be a pity not to use such a good bait for fishing."
Yang Guang suddenly realized it and said with a smile: "That's it..."
“Report... General, a coalition force with the banner of Qin, numbering about several thousand people, is heading towards our ambush circle, and will enter the ambush circle newly established by the general.”
Li Shimin and Yang Guang looked at each other and smiled. Yang Guang said: "It seems that we will definitely win this round."
"uncertain."
Li Shimin's eyes flashed with thought, and then he smiled and said: "It depends on Qin Hao's next move. If it can be resolved, the game will be considered stable."
After a long time, a messenger came and reported: "Report... General, the thousands of Qin army cavalry have forcibly broken the ambush of our army and have been attacking the rear of Zhao She's army. Brothers are attacked from both sides." It will soon become unbearable.”
"What?"
Li Shimin's expression changed immediately when he heard this. He had thought that Qin Hao would have a backup plan to save him, but he didn't expect that Qin Hao would be so simple and rude, and even sent out his ace.
The ace unit is the essence of an army, and it is also the small unit with the strongest combat effectiveness. It is generally used as a sharp knife in the most critical places of the war.
Being able to forcibly break the layers of ambush set by Li Shimin, it can be seen that this team must be the ace of the Qin army, but sending the ace in such a small and medium-sized war is undoubtedly overkill in Li Shimin's opinion.
Be aware that if the trump card suffers too many casualties, it will seriously affect the decisive battle.
Li Shimin was a little confused about Qin Hao. Did Qin Hao think this battle was more important than the decisive battle? impossible?
Although he couldn't figure out Qin Hao's purpose, since Qin Hao had already made a move, Li Shimin naturally had to take it. Other possible situations would be discussed after he defeated Qin Hao's move.
Li Shimin thought for a moment and then decisively ordered: "Instruct all the generals to go out to fight and resolve the battle as quickly as possible. In addition, the Xuanjia Army will be mobilized to intercept in a roundabout way. Since Qin Hao has sent this elite battalion, he will send this elite battalion here." The Qin army left everyone behind."
The Xuanjia Army is an elite battalion formed by Li Shimin. It has followed him on expeditions east and west for many years. Even when facing the Overlord Cavalry, it has not fallen behind. Now it has become the two ace troops of the Liang Army alongside the Feixiong Army.
Qin Hao had more than one trump card in his hand. Although Li Shimin didn't know which one Qin Hao had sent, it would be too much of a disadvantage to use ordinary soldiers against the enemy. He had to send his own trump card to minimize casualties.
Li Shimin had seen the strength of the Qin Army's ace, and he was confident that his Xuanjia Army was absolutely comparable. What's more, this time he had an absolute advantage in strength. Therefore, in Li Shimin's view, the Xuanjia Army had no reason to lose. The only thing he was afraid of was Qin Hao has other options.
What Li Shimin didn't know was that the current Qin Army was not the Qin Army he remembered. The Qin Army's ace in his memory was before the change of equipment, but now the Qin Army's equipment has been updated.
The Qin army, which had been replaced with new equipment, had greatly improved its combat effectiveness compared to before, but Li Shimin's understanding of it was still the same as before.
Intelligence errors are a taboo on the battlefield. If Li Shimin couldn't discover it in time, he would probably suffer a huge loss this time.
On the battlefield, as the fierce generals of the Liang army came out, the battle situation suddenly turned one-sided.
