Chapter 13 12. Jiangshan cried out

The next day, at dawn, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin each commanded 500 cavalry, crossed the mountain pass, and arrived outside Huoyi City where Song Laosheng was stationed.Not long after, Li Yuan also led his general Yin Kaishan, commanding more than 2,000 infantry, and also crossed the mountain pass. Li Yuan ordered: "Don't be in a hurry to set up camp. Tonight we will go to the city to rest. The women in the city have been looking forward to us for a long, long time... Dalang Erlang, each of you bring 20 cavalry and lie in ambush with me near the city gate." , All the cavalry were broken into pieces, with about 20 people in each group, and I surrounded Huoyi City.

Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin looked at each other, this father, he is really amazing.Song Laosheng in the city has 30,000 soldiers under his command, but Li Yuan actually asked his brothers to lead a thousand cavalry to surround the city. Can you surround 30,000 people with a thousand people?Although they murmured in their hearts, neither of them dared to say anything. They both knew that Li Yuan must have his reasons for such an arrangement, so they acted according to his words. The two of them each led 20 cavalry and went back and forth near the south gate of Huoyi City. wandering. Here, Li Yuan ordered Yin Kaishan to line up 2,000 infantry in a square line, stand far away, and yell at Huo Yicheng.

Song Laosheng was shocked when he found Li Yuan's men appeared behind him.He also saw groups of cavalry running around outside the city, and he felt a little nervous. Although there were 30,000 people on his side, they were all infantry. How would infantry fight other cavalry?Let the cavalry hit a somersault with the horse.But if you don't leave the city, I'm afraid that some bastard will immediately release a carrier pigeon and fly to Chang'an, saying that he and Li Yuan are in the same group... There is no way, just let all 30,000 infantry rush out... The south gate and east gate of Huoyi City were opened at the same time, and the 30,000 people let out earth-shattering shouts, and rushed towards Li Yuan's 2,000 people.I saw that Li Yuan did not hesitate at all, turned around and left, Song Laosheng's men were chasing after him, and when he was chasing, he heard a loud shout from behind. At that time, Li Shimin took twenty cavalry and took advantage of this opportunity to rob the east gate.

The 30,000 people looked back and were furious. There are only 20 people on your side, and you dare to cheat. It is really shameful.Hearing 30,000 people shouting in unison, they turned around and headed towards the door to kill. Unexpectedly, Li Yuan also took this opportunity to shout loudly, and followed behind to kill. Before the war drums sounded, the two armies had already started to charge. With a force of no more than 3,000, Li Yuan successfully surrounded the opponent's 30,000 horses. This aroused the viciousness of Song Laosheng's generals. The dust kicked up by countless pairs of feet covered the sky and caused the city to crumble.At this time, Song Laosheng was directing Ruoding, when he suddenly saw Li Yuan jumping up, standing on the horseback, holding a human head in his hand, and shouting loudly: Song Laosheng is dead, Song Laosheng's head is here... Li Yuan shouted, The two thousand soldiers under him also shouted at the same time: Song Laosheng is dead, kill everyone...

Hearing these yells, Song Laosheng's nose was almost out of breath, and he quickly explained to the people next to him: I'm not dead, I'm still alive... But his own defense is no bigger than the voice of two thousand people Roaring in unison.The 30,000 people thought that the commander-in-chief had really been killed, and immediately turned into a mess, facing all directions, crying and fleeing for their own lives, but Li Yuan drove them to kill them, only beheading people's heads rolling all over the ground. Song Laosheng became anxious, he fought a bloody road, and finally rushed to the south gate, but Li Jiancheng led 20 cavalry to block here, and the people in the city dared not open the gate for fear of letting Li Jiancheng in.Song Laosheng had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the east gate. When he arrived at the east gate, he found that Li Shimin and twenty people were blocking here, and there was no way to enter.

Song Laosheng shouted anxiously to the tower, I am Song Laosheng, quickly hang down a rope... Soon a rope was hanging from the tower, Song Laosheng grabbed the rope, swished up like a gecko, and it was about to He climbed up, but unexpectedly there was a soldier of Li Yuan below, he also grabbed the rope and chased after him. He grabbed Song Laosheng's foot, swiped a few times, and heard a puff, Song Laosheng's head was so big, It has fallen from the neck. When Song Laosheng died, under the city of Huoyi, for several miles, there were densely packed corpses lying next to each other, the scene was horrible.

The soldier who killed Song Laosheng jumped down, held the head, and ran to Li Yuan to repay his meritorious service. Unexpectedly, Li Yuan took the head, threw it to the ground forcefully, and burst into tears.While crying, he scolded: Song Laosheng, you bastard who kills a thousand swords, I, Li Yuan, have been innocent all my life, and never hurt my opponent, but today I made an exception for you, why are you so difficult for me?Why?Is it wrong for me, Li Yuan, to work diligently for the people and love the people?You can't see it like that?Do you have to force me to kill Ying Ye and bleed like a river?Song Laosheng, why are you forcing me so much, why...

While Li Yuan was beating his chest, stamping his feet, and crying bitterly, he heard the creaking sound of Huo Yi's city gate. The city gate opened, and Huo Yi asked to surrender. Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin looked at each other, and they couldn't help admiring them from the bottom of their hearts. Li Yuan, as expected of being a father, is really good at fighting, crying open the gates of the city, enough for these two sons to learn for a lifetime. Convince people by crying until you open the city gate and surrender.In this way, Li Yuan crossed the Yellow River without bloodshed and arrived at the city of Chang'an.

At this time, Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, was on a tour of Jiangdu, but he had not returned to Yangzhou. The person in charge of military affairs in Chang'an was Yang Guang's son, Yang You, the acting king.The child was just nine years old, when he saw Li Yuan's army approaching, he closed the city gate tightly and refused to fight.So Li Yuan said to the soldiers: I hope you can understand my wish. I am ordered by heaven to defend the emperor. If such a thing happened, I, Li Yuan, will deal with you whether it is killing, chopping, chopping or chopping. After saying this, Li Yuan went back to the military tent, closed the tent door firmly, and resolutely refused to peek outside.Under the leadership of Dalang Li Jiancheng and Erlang Li Shimin, the sergeants outside cut down all the bamboo trees near Chang'an City and used them to make siege equipment.When Li Yuan finally walked out of the army tent, the soldiers of the three armies had already rushed into the city and captured Chang'an City.

Seeing this situation, Li Yuan was heartbroken, and he looked up to the sky and mourned: "Being lonely and unrighteous, everyone is yours." Tang Jun marched into Chang'an with great strides. The acting king Yang You hid in the mansion and did not dare to show his face. Li Yuan led his troops in, knelt in front of Yang You and cried loudly.Little Yang You was not stupid, and immediately appointed Li Yuan as the prime minister, in charge of all military affairs and government affairs, and named him King of Tang. The next thing will be a matter of course.Yang You, the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty, cried and begged to give up the world to Li Yuan. Li Yuan flatly refused, saying: Who do you think I am... Yang You begged again, and Li Yuan refused again, saying: Stop messing with me... …Yang You knelt on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, begging.Li Yuan said, "Please don't insult my personality anymore. I, Li Yuan, am not that kind of person... Is the altar outside set up for meditation?"Once you're done, hurry up...

Helpless and unwilling, Li Yuan took over the world from Yang You.The prosperous Tang Dynasty slowly opened its curtain here.
