Eight hundred and fiftieth IX Royal drive to the city

Luo Zhaoyun came to supervise the battle in person. He was not dressed in a yellow robe or a crown on his head, but was completely iron armored and silver speared, and moved around in front of the military formation.

The shadow of trees, the name of people, and some legendary stories of Luo Zhaoyun have been brewing over the years. People in many places have heard the form of comments from some wine shops, etc., and are even more so in the army, and are deeply admired and respected by military soldiers.

When he rode in front of the formation for a while, looking down at the square formation with spears, he suddenly became silent. The soldiers were extremely excited and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

This is what Luo Zhaoyun wanted to see, inspiring the soldiers' fighting spirit and confidence, and taking over Taigu City in one fell swoop.

The troops, gunpowder, weapons, etc. that are invested today will be unprecedented in these days of siege. Because Emperor Dahua personally arrived, he must create a thunderous momentum. Therefore, the siege must be fierce, intimidated the Tang army and disintegrated the enemy's fighting spirit.

After a while, Luo Zhaoyun began to shout loudly: "Soldiers, the Great Sui Dynasty collapsed, the mountains and rivers were broken, thousands of people were deeply trapped in water and fire, the creatures were devastated, the fields were deserted, and millions of starved to death. Our Dahua launched an army from the northwest, first resisted the other places, and then pushed up the uprisings and rebelled against the princes and caused rebellion. Now there is still the Tang Kingdom left, and the north is about to unify. The soldiers witnessed such achievements in founding, and should fight bravely to fight the enemy and live up to expectations!"

"Try to fight for the enemy bravely! Try to fight for the enemy bravely-" The three armies roared and shouted that the subway city was shaking.

Morale was mobilized, and the atmosphere outside the city was boiling, shouting was as loud as the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked.

The Tang army soldiers on the top of the city looked as if they were ashamed when they saw this scene. Especially when Luo Zhaoyun, who learned that he was invincible, personally led the army to the city and brought many more troops, which completely made the soldiers of the defenders feel sad.

The Tang soldiers stood there, their expressions were stiff, dull and desperate, and they felt that there was no possibility of winning this battle.

Li Jiancheng, Li Xiaogong and others were inspecting the city and seeing this scene, they were all in a low mood. Many strategists felt cold when they saw the densely packed square formations of soldiers outside the city, neat and majestic soldiers.

This tough battle was destined to be bloody and extremely tragic.

They have no clue in their hearts, and don’t know how long they can stay?

"Your Highness, this Taigu City is in danger. My subordinates think that the prince should leave earlier to avoid accidents."

"That is, the crown prince is the foundation of the country, and there must be no mistakes." The crown prince's confidants began to persuade, for others and themselves, they did not want to hold on here anymore...

Li Jiancheng shook his head and said unhappy: "At this critical moment of life and death, how can Yan Lin escape?"

"Your Highness, this is not a escaping at the last minute, but a choice and strategic transfer. We have implemented a strong wall and clearing the fields these days, and have achieved some results. We know that Taigu City cannot be defended, and the prince should not stay for too long. Think about it, every time Luo Zhaoyun sends troops, he will not fight a war that is unsure. Since this time, he may have already made arrangements. My subordinates are worried that we will be surrounded here and become bait. At that time, with the prince and the King of Qin as a threat, he will force the King of Tang to send troops to support, and he will be attacked by Luo Zhaoyun's plan." Shi Yuwen Ying, the chief of the Prince's Mansion, explained this.

Feng Li, a Sima and a strategist in the Prince's Mansion, looked solemn and bowed: "Your Highness, there is another possibility. Since Luo Zhaoyun has arrived outside the city, his subordinates are most worried about whether he will use the same trick again and have sent troops to seize our retreat. Therefore, to be on the safe side, the prince and the King of Qin should leave first."

Li Xiaogong hesitated and said, "Your Highness, it's better to do this. The last general is responsible for defending this city, and then keeping a few generals to help you, and buying time for the Qingye. The prince and the King of Qin can go separately to supervise the implementation of the Qingye on the east and west sides, and then return to Jinyang to report. This Taigu City is already full of holes. More than half of the people in the city are killed or injured, and less than one-third of the original number. This city has basically no value. Once the city is broken, its subordinates will order burning it, and will not give any advantage to the Chinese army, so that they can get a lifeless empty city."

Li Jiancheng was moved by his words and felt a little shaken. He knew that this city could not be defended, and as the prince, he could not take such a risk.

According to the previous state ritual system, after the crown prince was generally enthroned, the crown prince would gradually participate in the regent. Once he became an adult, he would go to court to listen to the policies of all officials, build a single Ya Mansion, and gradually grow up to prepare for the future ascendance of the throne. This was something he had been practicing before the Sui Dynasty.

The status of the prince is important, so you cannot take risks easily and lead troops out to war, which is very unfavorable to the safety of the candidates for the imperial court.

In the end, Li Jiancheng decided to leave early, but he had to survive half a day to see with his own eyes how fierce the Dahua army was and how it was defeated under this heroic pass.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The war drums were beating under the city, the army condensed, and then pushed forward, with neat steps, as if they were as powerful as a mountain, and were majestic as a mighty person.

In an instant, Pioneer Street and the Left Route Army began to attack the city.

Today, because the emperor came to watch the battle, generals such as Hou Junji and Xu Shiji felt a little pressure and wanted to show off.

As soon as the battle situation was opened, two men and horses were sieging the city fiercely. If they wanted to compete, who could break the city first, each of them was like a chicken blood.

"Swish swish swish!"

Ten thousand arrows roared through the sky, completely covering the sky above the city, densely packed like black clouds covering the sky.

The arrow fell, and its strength was still very strong. Many guards were shot to death, as well as the soldiers and civilians transporting wood and stones. Many arrows fell to the ground, stalking the rocky ground, and the tail was trembling.

"boom!"

A row of simple artillery was loaded and fired, suppressing firearms on the top and inside the city.

Taigu City was trembling because many explosive barrels were escorted to the corner of the city, looking for weak points, and starting to detonate, hoping to blow up holes and send troops in.

Luo Zhaoyun stared ahead with a calm expression and calmly accepted the current battle.

At this moment, Ning Wu, the Duke of the Guards, flew over and conveyed the information to Luo Zhaoyun. On the way to retreat, the ambushed troops had been completed.
