Chapter 47 Chapter 47: Shaolin monks capture Wang Ren alive, and Li Shimin fights Dou Jiande

What kind of weapons Shaolin monks use remains to be verified, so many scholars only say "thirteen monks" when they talk about the thirteen stick monks.The real stick monk appeared in the Ming Dynasty and became famous all over the world for successfully helping Qi Jiguang fight against the Japanese.Regardless of whether they used sticks or not, the thirteen monks had already discussed how to deal with Wang Renze. On this day, Tanzong and his party found Zhao Xiaozai, Wang Renze's subordinate.This Zhao Xiaozai is the guard of Zhuzhou City, and he is doing the business of guarding the city.The reason why Tanzong found him was because he already knew that this person was dissatisfied with Wang Shichong.Zhao Xiaozai is a profit-seeking person, it's just that he is in Zheng Jun and it's hard to get away.His original plan was that he wanted the Tang army to break through Luoyang, so he would take advantage of the chaos and escape, renting a hill to live a happy life like a king of the mountain.Unexpectedly, before Wang Shichong was slaughtered, several monks found themselves first.

Zhao Xiaozai remained silent until Tan Zong revealed the autographed letter of Tang Prince Li Shimin. After reading the letter, Lao Zhao nodded and said, I believe you were sent by King Qin.Zhao Xiaozai expressed that he was happy to uphold justice and restore the ancestral temple, however, he paused and said: "It's just a little tight." "Hey, why?" When someone asked about this, Zhao Xiaozai became angry. He pointed at the 45° sky and cursed loudly: "It's all due to that bastard Wang Shichong. The brothers are desperately defending the country for him, and he has the nerve to default on our wages!"

Oh, Tan Zong and others suddenly realized, "Amitabha, Wang Shichong is really shameless." After a few seconds of silence, Tan Zong spoke again.He said: "Let's see, General, we happened to have too much incense money a few days ago, and we monks have no wives and no concerns. These things can be regarded as first-class fate with the General." Zhao Xiaozai smiled, "It's easy to say, easy to say." As part of the plan, Cho Hyo-jae and his subordinates need to be responsible for the internal response.Wang Renze, who was as nervous as Zhao Xiaozai, would run to the high platform of the city gate to watch when the battle was not tight.In fact, no matter how you look at it, you can’t see Dongdu. He just prays to God every day, hoping that Wang Shichong can hold on.

Unfortunately, Jesus did not understand Chinese. On April 27th, the worried Wang Ren was listening to the report on the situation in Dongdu as usual, when suddenly, Zhao Xiaozai rushed out with a group of soldiers behind him. Wang Ren felt very strange, so he asked: "Xiaozai, what are you doing?" Zhao Xiaozai didn't speak, and led his subordinates to surround Wang Renze within a few seconds.Fortunately, Wang Renze had guards by his side, and the two sides fell into a melee.Caught off guard, Wang Ren was forced into the gate cave by Lao Zhao's men. If so, he would be forced to death in the gate cave by Zhao Xiaozai, so open the door and run!Before Wang Renze opened the gate, the city gate suddenly opened by itself, and a group of monks with bright foreheads came to kill them.These dozen or so people didn't care about others, and rushed straight towards Wang Renze, probably still shouting Li Shimin's words to surrender.

... (500 characters of wonderful fights are omitted here) The process of capturing Wang Ren alive is unknown, and it is unclear whether Wang Ren cursed or not.In short, Tanzong made a great contribution, and Shaolin restored the old land.Here, I ask everyone to close their eyes and rest for a while, because the story of the thirteen stick monks saving the king of Tang has passed so low-key.Very boring story, but don't be sad, don't be disappointed, believe in life, believe in the distance. Three days later, Li Shimin sent another letter of thanks in his own handwriting.The words and sentences in the letter all come from Buddhist scriptures and are very artistic.This letter was not sent to the monks living in Shaolin Temple at that time, but was directly collected by the royal family. It was not until the eleventh year of Kaiyuan (723) of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty that Tang Xuanzong handed it to Chan Master Yixing for him. Take it back to Shaolin Temple.Later, it was recorded in Shaolin Temple inscriptions.

Li Shimin is grateful to these monks, but Li Yuan has no relationship with them. At the end of Wude, Li Yuan also asked the imperial court to promulgate regulations to abolish all the monasteries in the old Zheng State, and ordered all monks to return to the vulgar.Shaolin Temple has been abolished almost since then. Fortunately, the thirteen monks appealed, saying that they had done a great job in breaking the bandits, so they were able to retain and inherit the mu property.Li Shimin should really thank the thirteen monks, but he wouldn't let them save his life as the novel said.At this time, Li Shimin was in the military prison, and his opponent was not the little Wang Renze, but the respectable Dou Jiande.

Li Shimin was very happy to hear that behind his butt, the monks from Shaolin Temple had secured the city of Zhuzhou for him.A few days ago he sent general Comrade Wang Junkuo to attack, but he couldn't take it down after several days of attacking. Unexpectedly, more than a dozen monks took it down without any effort.Wang Junkuo is also one of Li Shimin's fierce generals, and he is on par with Li Shiji in every index, except for his character.He had a feud with Li Shiji. When Li Shiji was threatened by Dou Jiande, he was ordered to fight Wang Junkuo.Li Shiji was ferocious and invincible, but Wang Junkuo was not easy to mess with.When Wang Junkuo's army was restrained by Li Shiji and couldn't move forward, Wang Junkuo was furious and jumped like thunder, with blood protruding from his eyes, ears and nose. His face was like a beast, and he roared like thunder.After Comrade Li Yuan learned about this, he kept sighing and said: "Wang Junkuo can't just enjoy ordinary military rewards!" So he broke the rules and gave him a special heavy reward and gave him his mount.

It can be seen from this that Wang Renze is not easy to provoke; it can also be seen from this that the monks have contributed a lot. Li Shimin kept putting pressure on Dou Jiande, but Dou Jiande didn't seem to follow Li Shimin's way.He was ready to play with Li Shimin to the end. In order to show his determination, he built a palace where the troops were stationed.Only after living for a few years will there be a need to build a palace. It seems that Dou Jiande is really playing for real.However, on some very important issues, Dou Jiande made serious mistakes. First of all, he thought that Li Shimin led at least 100,000 horses to confront him, and he observed for a long time, but he couldn't find where Li Shimin's main force was.In fact, thinking about it, it's really annoying. Li Shimin brought 3,500 people, where are you going to find the main force?

Secondly, Dou Jiande's intelligence network is underdeveloped. In the end, Dou Jiande was not as ruthless as Li Shimin. Dou Jiande, who had just suffered a loss before, refused to fight easily. In order to make him stand out, Li Shimin devised a particularly treacherous plan.He made people sit in a big boat and took more than a thousand horses to the north bank of the Yellow River to graze grass, deliberately lengthening the length of the grazing horses.The terrain of Wulao is too dangerous to store grass, but the grass on the north bank of the Yellow River is delicious, so what can you think of?

Answer: I think Li Shimin's horse is very happy. Comment: Bear face owes fans again. Think about it this way, if you were Dou Jiande and suffered a big loss, you would definitely not fight easily, and you must wait for Li Shimin to show his feet before fighting.When will Li Shimin show his feet?When the soldiers were homesick, when there was a mutiny in the army, when food and grass were insufficient, when Chang'an was in chaos?Other things are unlikely, so we can only wait for Li Shimin to run out of food and grass.Li Shimin ran to the north bank of the Yellow River to herd horses, what did he explain?Dou Jiande smiled slightly, he knew that Li Shimin had run out of food.

Dou Jiande, who was on the sidelines, was convinced that he had waited for the time for a decisive battle. Early the next morning, Li Shimin, who had been waiting for Dou Jiande to come out in full force, saw the scene of Dou Jiande coming out in full force.The 150,000 soldiers and horses moved in a majestic manner, which was very spectacular. They were "distanced from the Dahe River in the north, Bosi River in the west, and Que Mountain in the south. They marched twenty miles away with drums."That is to say, Dou Jiande's army lined up for 20 li in formation alone, beating drums and singing military songs, and the momentum was very large.The ever-victorious general Dou Jiande led an army of 150,000 to fight Li Shimin.Li Shimin only had 3,500 people on hand, but he was very calm. If I encountered such a situation, I would probably be so excited that I would have diarrhea, and the generals in the Tang army were also nervous without exception.Anyone who has studied elementary school arithmetic knows that on average, Dou Jiande used forty-three people to kick Tang Jun alone.However, war is not gang fights.Li Shimin looked at the nervous generals and said, "Come on, let's go take a look with me." Li Shimin led the general and rode up to the high ground beside the Sishui, and they looked at Dou Jiande's army together.The Wulao is really dangerous, and you can see everything in a glance from the top.It's no wonder that Wulao Pass is the most important military site in the eight towns. It is unstoppable to hold the throat and charge quickly! Dou Jiande also noticed it. Li Shimin's soldiers and horses are short of food, and if they can survive until now, it is estimated that the mounts should be boiled for soup.Dou Jiande stopped his army when it reached the shallow beach of Sishui, facing Li Shimin's army.No one can figure out how many people Li Shimin has.In order to find out Li Shimin's reality, Dou Jiande sent 300 cavalry to wade across the river and stop at a distance of more than 500 meters from the Tang army.Dou Jiande is a very idealistic person, his move is actually to challenge Li Shimin one-on-one. The officials may not be aware that in ancient Chinese wars, a general with a small number of troops often singled out the situation.This is a very righteous way of fighting, as the saying goes: You shoot one, I shoot one, let's play games together, we are all good brothers, no one can play tricks.The 300 cavalry sent by Dou Jiande ran to Li Shimin's camp to fight one-on-one. A messenger cavalry galloped forward and told Li Shimin's army what Dou Jiande wanted by shouting: Please choose hundreds of elites to fight with us! This is a concise and sharp text message. After the correspondent finished speaking, he ran back to the cavalry company and got ready to fight.Li Shimin glanced at the other party, and suddenly felt that Dou Jiande's actions made his whole body and head ache.Forget it, men come to challenge, we have to be men!So, Li Shimin looked at the generals and asked: "Who wants to go?" But he saw a tiger general, surnamed Wang Junkuo, volunteered and said: "The last general wants to go!" Li Shimin nodded, and Wang Junkuo led two hundred cavalry to kill him. The two men and horses started to fight, and in the group fight... the two teams advanced and retreated at the same time. After a few rounds of tossing, there was no victory for each other.Li Shimin's more than 3,000 people and Dou Jiande's 150,000 people watched helplessly as the five hundred people fought in the middle.Da Xiatian's mouth was parched, and there was no breakthrough in the battle situation, so the two sides returned to their respective teams.After the last battle of hundreds of people, the two sides still lined up to face each other.At this time, it is time for Comrade Wang Wan, Wang Shichong's nephew, to show his handsomeness.He rode his beloved BMW and swayed triumphantly before the group, laughing loudly and acting brave. This scene was noticed by Li Shimin. What he set his eyes on was not Wang Wan, but the BMW under Wang Wan's crotch.Therefore, Li Shimin clicked his tongue twice, and said to Da Laohei: "Look at the horse that Wang Wan is riding, it is red and shiny, and it is as vigorous as flying. It is really a good horse!" When Da Laohei heard this, he immediately said: "I'm here Go and grab it for His Highness!" As he spoke, he wanted to charge into the enemy's formation while riding his horse.Li Shimin grabbed Da Laohei and said: "Why are you going? I just want to admire, how can a warrior die because of a horse!" Da Laohei refused to listen, but went.Li Shimin was really just sighing, but he didn't expect that Da Lao Hei had a straight temper and wanted to grab it desperately.After a stalemate for a while, Li Shimin couldn't argue, so he sent Gao Zengsheng and Liang Jianfang to accompany Yuchi Jingde to snatch the horse. Da Laohei was ordered to rush forward.After a brutal killing, Yuchi Jingde captured Wang Wan alive.The people around saw that it would be a deadly situation to go up, so no one dared to stop it.Yuchi Jingde led the BMW back to Li Shimin, which moved Li Shimin very much.Yuchi Jingde presented a BMW, this BMW has a background. Its previous owner was very special because he was the richest man in the Sui Dynasty——Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty.This horse is a noble breed of sweat-blooded horses from the Western Regions. It runs with a soft sound and is as fast as a flying swallow.Shiva, Persian, red.Well, now, Dou Jiande watched Yuchi Jingde running to snatch Wang Wan away, but he didn't dare to stop him. Is there anything more useless in the world than this? So, continue to let small groups of troops single out and fight in groups.During this period, Li Shimin waited until what he wanted to see.Due to thirst, Dou Jiande's soldiers rushed to the river to drink water.Li Shimin had already prepared for this. After the horses on the north bank of the Yellow River were fed and drunk, they were called back by Li Shimin at this time. Early the next morning, Li Shimin called Yuwen Shiji and gave him a difficult task. He asked Yuwen Shiji to lead 300 cavalry to run south from the west of Dou Jiande's army.According to the plan, if Dou Jiande's army is dispatched upon hearing the news, Li Shimin will lead the Xuanjia army to cover up and kill them. If Dou Jiande does not move, no one will fight.Yuwen Shiji set off with a mission, and in the middle of the run, things turned around according to Li Shimin's arrangement. Dou Jiande saw a small group of soldiers and horses coming, so he asked people to lead the army to besiege decisively.At this time, Li Shimin was standing on the high slope, watching the newly equipped elite troops carrying out their work in an orderly manner. Three thousand five hundred elites rushed towards Dou Jiande's overwhelming army. At this time, Dou Jiande had just learned the news that the Tang army had come out in full force.The most unfortunate thing was that the ministers under him were preparing to participate in the early court, and the army dispatched happened to pass across the center of the square, cutting off the way to the court hall.Enter?or back?The ministers were at a loss.Dou Jiande bared his teeth and claws on the opposite side to make a gesture of going back quickly to the courtiers, but the courtiers couldn't see them, and they all froze there. After a short while, Li Shimin's Xuanjia army killed them. Xia Jun had never seen such a powerful team. In desperation, Dou Jiande let the army cover the officials and retreated to the small hillside to the east.The hundreds of thousands of troops were not vegetarians. Under the command of Dou Jiande, they reacted quickly and surrounded Li Shimin's soldiers and horses.With all the arrows fired, Li Shimin, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Yaojin and others were shot into hedgehogs.The sky was filled with blood, and for a while, the momentum and shouts made people feel creepy. Is it strange? Not surprisingly. Because I wrote the paragraph just now for fun.Dou Jiande is running for his life, the so-called defeat is like a mountain, how can he have the strength to recover?However, among the generals of the Tang Dynasty, some people were indeed shot into hedgehogs by arrows, and they became famous in history.The phrase "The arrow gathers its body like a hedgehog's hair" has become the most famous sentence about him in history. Dou Jiande: Life is like toilet paper, try to talk as little as possible! Li Shimin: When is it time for the mandarin mandarin mandarin mandarin and mandarin mandarin hug each other?
