Chapter IX Entering Dafeichuan

On the top of the mountain, the generals watched the gray fog covering the stone castle city. They were shocked and stunned. They opened their mouths and eyes widened, and even forgot to speak.

At this point, everyone understands that after the stone castle city is over, it will definitely be captured by the Tang army.

Think about it, how much effort the Tang Dynasty put in to attack Shibao City and how many soldiers died or injured were not successful, and it became a heart-wrenching problem of the Tang Dynasty. Now, Li Longji has knocked down Shibao City without any effort. This is a miracle.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that it was true.

"The prince is wise and powerful, and his magnanimous posture is extraordinary. If he doesn't take action, he will be shocking. He will be a shocking move. What a mere stone castle city is worth!"

"Don't talk about the mere Shibao City, it's even more difficult to reach the 100-fold pass. As long as the prince wants, he will definitely be able to conquer it."

"I knew the prince was very wise and extraordinary, so it was true! I knew the prince had a clever plan and could capture Shi Baocheng in one fell swoop, so it was true!"

"The prince is worthy of being a descendant of Emperor Taizong. He is invincible and invincible. How can a mere stone castle city stop the prince's footsteps?"

Immediately afterwards, the generals reacted and used all the words they knew to praise Li Longji for a while, praising him like a flower.

"Is I that good? Do you believe me so much? Why don't I know?" Li Longji's face turned solemn and shouted at the generals: "Who is sarcastic at me just now? He said I was crazy about gaining and losing my heart and talking big? Who said I couldn't conquer Shibao City in one fell swoop? Is it you? Or you?"

The generals all blushed and looked ashamed. They were embarrassed and both bowed their heads to admit their mistakes, just like a primary school student who had done something wrong facing an angry teacher.

"Crown Prince. We are all blind and don't know that the prince is so good. I would like to forgive me."

"It's all my fault, I don't know the prince's trick."

All the generals blamed themselves and regretted not believing in Li Longji.

"Okay." Li Longji waved his hand and said, "Instead of blaming himself here, it is better to prepare to march into Dafeichuan."

"Okay." This time, the generals took the order with a loud bang, and they all smiled and had no intention of objection.

Li Longji led the generals down the mountain and returned to the camp.

On the way, the generals were still praising Li Longji. Judging from what they meant, Li Longji seemed to be a god who came to earth. He was wise and mighty, and his aura of domineering power was leaking.

Shibao City was when Emperor Yang of Sui was on a western tour. When he came here, he found that the geographical location was extremely dangerous, so he ordered the city to be built here, and the Shibao City was found.

In the end of the Sui Dynasty, Tubo took the opportunity to occupy Shibao City and became a sharp sword hanging on the Hexi Corridor. It posed a huge threat to the Hexi Corridor, which gave the Tang Dynasty a headache.

Historically, Li Longji was determined to take down Shibao City from a strategic perspective and force Tubo to withdraw from the alliance with the Arab Empire, so that the Tang Dynasty could concentrate its efforts to fight with the Arab Empire in the Western Regions, compete for Central Asia, and order Wang Zhongsi to attack Shibao City.

Wang Zhongsi was the most military commander of Li Longji's dynasty, and he was Li Longji's adopted son. He was trusted by Li Longji and handed over half of the Tang Dynasty's army to Wang Zhongsi. This shows how much Li Longji trusted him.

After repeated consideration, Wang Zhongsi thought it was impossible to conquer Shibao City, so he repeatedly opposed sending troops. In the end, he annoyed Li Longji, withdrew Wang Zhongsi and ordered Geshuhan to replace Wang Zhongsi.

Under Li Longji's strict order, Geshuhan had to send troops. After a bloody battle, he finally succeeded by a sneak attack. In this battle, the Tang army paid a huge price of more than 40,000 casualties.

Of course, the results of the battle to capture Shibao City were also very brilliant, that is, Tubo was afraid, so he negotiated with the Tang Dynasty and withdrew from the alliance with the Arab Empire.

The security of the Hexi Corridor was guaranteed, and Tubo withdrew from the alliance with the Arab Empire, which was very beneficial to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty's large amount of manpower and material resources entered the Western Regions, strengthening the military power of the Western Regions. Soon, Gao Xianzhi fought in Central Asia, heading westward, and shocked the Arab Empire.

Now, the Stone Castle City will inevitably be defeated, and the soldiers must be happy. They will not be able to praise Li Longji.

The reason why Li Longji succeeded is that the Stone Castle City was too small. If it was bigger, this move would definitely be useless.

Tubo had only 400 troops in Shibao City. If there were more troops, there would be no land. This shows how small Shibao City was, which was equivalent to a very small street.

After the wind blows more than 10,000 kilograms of ashes, the fog formed is enough to cover the stone castle city.

Even if only part of it covers the Shibao City, it will be enough to make the Tubo garrison lose its combat power.

Yang Sixu and Xue Zhifeng rushed in their heads like wind, roaring with sounds of mountains and smooth sailing all the way. Without any resistance from Tubo, they arrived in front of Shibao City smoothly.

There is only one mountain road that runs through Shibao City. I don’t know how many Tang troops died on this mountain road. In the past, every step forward had to pay a huge price. Now, it has become a smooth road, and Tubo has no resistance at all. Yang Sixu and Xue Zhi felt like they were dreaming.

Not only are they dreaming, but who is not as good as the soldiers?

"Did we really get to the front of Stone Castle City?"

"I'm not dazzled? I'm not reading it wrong?"

“Am I daydreaming?”

"It seems like maybe...is not wrong."

The soldiers were surprised and confused.

If they hadn't experienced it personally, they wouldn't have believed that it would have been so smooth.

This is the pass that Shibao City, which caused the most headache for the Tang Dynasty, was undoubtedly one of the most.

The opposite of the Tang army, who was excited as if they were injected with chicken blood, was frightened by the invisible eyes and screamed and frightened.

"My eyes, my eyes."

"Listen quickly, the Tang army is here, the Tang army is here, and has arrived at the city."

"What should I do? What should I do?"

"Let's fight."

"Come on the challenge? You think you're out of here? Your eyes can't see it. How can you fight this battle? How can you fight?"

"Escape. Take advantage of the opportunity to escape."

"Yes! Escape. Oh, where did you hit me? My nose."

"How can you escape if you can't see?"

The Tubo soldiers were completely panicked, and they could not fight and flee. In addition to panic, they were panic.

"We can't just wait for death, right?" In the end, the Tubo soldiers were both terrified and thought in despair.

In fact, they guessed it right, and they had no other way out except waiting for death.

"The Tubo dog thought that if we had closed the city gate, we had no choice. Climb up!" Yang Sixu looked at the situation in Shibao City. He saw that the gate of Shibao City was closed, but there were not many Tubo soldiers on the top of the city.

The Tubo soldiers on the top of the city were frightened and uneasy. They rushed around, and some people fell to the city, crying at their parents and shouting.

The Tang army soldiers began to stack the ladders, and soon someone climbed up to the city. He waved his sword in his hand and slashed and killed him, roaring: "Kill the Tubo dog! Kill the Tubo dog!"

"Damn it, hateful, Tubo dog, your death is here!"

"Kill! Kill all the Tubo dogs!"

It was the first time in the history of the Tang Dynasty that the soldiers were not excited. They all regarded a little bit of strength as a tenth, and they were extremely sharp when they cut and killed.

The Tubo soldiers were unable to see and could not resist because they could only be massacred.

Speaking of massacre is already awesome, it should be called torture.

The Tubo soldiers were invisible and were already destroyed. If they were hacked and killed again, how could this be abusive?

The Tang army, who had no time to climb up the city, shot with bows and arrows. At such a close range, it was accurate to shoot one shot at a certain time.

Yang Sixu cut over a few Tubo soldiers, jumped off the city gate, came to the city gate, and opened the city gate.

The Tang army rushed in, like a tide, and soon flooded the stone castle city.

Xue Zhi led a team of Tang troops to another gate of Shibao City and occupied this gate to prevent the Tubo soldiers from escaping. In fact, the Tubo soldiers are currently unable to see things, and they cannot escape even if they want to escape. There is not much difference between whether he or she occupy it. However, it is safer to occupy it.

The next thing is very simple, it is to end the battle.

The Tubo soldiers were either killed or captured, and the battle was soon over, and the entire battle was only a meal.

Who said that Shibao City is too small? There are only 400 Tubo troops stationed here, so it is impossible not to end the battle earlier.

Just after the battle ended, Li Longji arrived surrounded by the generals, and Yang Sixu and Xue Zhi and others hurriedly welcomed him: "I have seen the prince!"

"Forgive." Li Longji waved his hand and asked, "Is the battle over?"

"It's over." Yang Sixu said with a smile: "Crown Prince, there are only four hundred Tubos here, and they are still blind people. If we can't end the battle, we are too useless."

"It's right." Xue Zhi agreed with this very much.

"Okay!" Li Longji's eyes shone brightly, his right hand raised high, slashed heavily, and announced loudly: "Brothers: The strong city of Shibao City is a sharp sword hanging on the head of the Hexi Corridor! In order to attack Shibao City, the Tang Dynasty attacked many times, and countless casualties, but none of them were successful! Today, we successfully captured the Castle City!"

"Long live the Tang Dynasty!"

"Long live the Tang Dynasty!"

The soldiers burst into shocking roars, and the sound waves ran through the sky, shaking the clouds in the sky to shatter.

The significance of conquering Shibao City is too great. Everyone understands that it is impossible to be especially excited by the soldiers.

The soldiers raised their throats and cheered with all their hearts. After half an hour, they stopped.

"Brothers: In front of Shibao City is Dafeichuan." Li Longji gave a speech again and said, "Twenty years ago, General Xue Rengui of Zuo Xiaogu led his army to attack Dafeichuan, but he defeated Dafeichuan, which was a shame for the Tang Dynasty! Now, Shibao City has been captured by our brave soldiers. It is time for us to march into Dafeichuan!"

"Entering Dafeichuan!"

"Entering Dafeichuan!"

The soldiers raised their arms and shouted, their voices trembling in the sky, and the ground was trembling.

The Tang army was well-trained, well-equipped, strict commands, able to conquer and fight, swept the world, destroyed dozens of countries, and rarely suffered defeat. Xue Rengui's defeat in Dafeichuan was a great humiliation of the Tang Dynasty. The soldiers were always thinking about avenging revenge.

Now, the opportunity has finally come, the soldiers are fighting with a high spirit, and their eyes are full of hot light.
