The morning sun in early autumn shines on the earth, and a golden light floats.

Outside the majestic Taigu City, a large number of Chinese military formations gathered, with each ten thousand people forming a square formation, densely arranged in the wilderness outside the city, with flags floating. The spearheads were like forests and all over the mountains were full of soldiers, with their young and dark faces, strong expressions, and their eyes full of unknown excitement.

The swords and guns with cold light and extremely sharp arrows shine with cold light under the morning light.

The constant neighing of the horses and the sound of the military flags dancing seemed so insignificant in the ears of all the soldiers. The military formation remained quiet and was waiting for the issuance of military orders.

Just now, Luo Zhaoyun had already made pre-war mobilization and was mentally prepared to charge at all times.

"Your Majesty, the hour of the year has arrived, and you can give orders."

Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly. He had made a good move today and would definitely give Taigu City a heavy hammer, forcing the Tang army to abandon the city and flee.

"Send the order, attack the city immediately!"

The military order spread quickly, and then the three armies began to get restless. The sound of pulling the bow first sounded, and then a thunderbolt bang and a burst of thunder.

Swallowing!

Ten thousand arrows were fired at once, all of which were powerful crossbows, with extremely powerful attack power, and even ordinary iron armor could penetrate through it.

The darkness enveloped the city, as if black clouds were covering the sky and covering the city heads. Some Tang soldiers were not hiding thoroughly enough and were attacked by cold arrows and nailed to the top of the city wall. The rock steps were pierced by powerful crossbow arrows several inches deep on the ground. Soon the aisles of the city walls were densely packed with arrows.

Immediately afterwards, the army attacked the city, and the tide of Chinese soldiers rushed to the city and began to build ladders to climb.

At this time, the guards on the top of the city began to fight back, pulling bows and shooting arrows, or smashing them with wooden and rocks, and resisting stubbornly.

The sound of waves of people and weapons fighting each other continued to spread, and the sound of killing was shocking and deafening.

Thousands of people attacked the city gate one after another. The cold light of the weapons did not penetrate the eyes, but was the glory paved with blood and life, so numb and cruel.

The long archers outside the city approached and kept firing towards the city heads, and the men who were carrying ladders and siege chariots like covering the tide, while the soldiers in front lined up the city walls, one after another, one after another.

??The head of the city was also returning to the enemy below the city, using throwing stones, crossbow arrows, rolling wood and beating stones from a distance. Looking from afar, half of the human body fell down from the head of the city and fell into bloody corpses. Suddenly, blood and smoke filled the air.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at this scene quietly and was already accustomed to it. Although he felt a little compassion in his heart, he also knew that this battle was inevitable and there was no peace at hand. He had to stop fighting with martial arts.

This time the attack was obviously even more fierce, because the Emperor Dahua personally led the army and was watching. All the soldiers had to reunite with their morale, and the Tang army, who was guarding the city, had been tired and had a sharp drop in morale. In contrast, their fighting spirit was very low.

By noon, the situation became more and more unfavorable for defending the city, and the city almost fell off several times.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the morale is sluggish, and Taigu City can no longer be defended." Yuying reported with a heavy expression.

"Where is the King of Qin?" Li Jiancheng asked sideways.

Yuying replied: "His Royal Highness of Qin has already led his troops out of the city first, saying that he would go to explore the way. He was worried that the Chinese army would ambush on the way, so he sent someone to report that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could take an opportunity to move and could withdraw at any time!"

Li Jiancheng nodded, and had indeed considered this possibility. The Chinese army could bypass these mountains and rivers and send a small group of troops from the side to block them, which would cause a great blow to them.

"Then let's retreat. It's meaningless to defend. This kind of jungler cannot stop the Chinese army. Let's go back to Jinyang City and fight to the death with Dahua there!" Li Jiancheng sighed lightly and ordered the retreat.

When the military order was spread, ten thousand people were left to cut off the rear, and the rest followed the crown prince of Tang Li Jiancheng and retreated from the north first.

As a result, the army of soldiers who were cut off the Tang army was distorted and could not stop the artillery fire and charge of the Chinese army. The city was quickly occupied and Taigu City gradually fell.

"The Tang army abandoned the city."

When the news came out, Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly and sent Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, Luo Shixin and others to lead troops to rush over the river valley canyon to the east of the city, bypassing the city, and directly chased and killed.

When Taigu City was captured, its significance was no longer great. Luo Zhaoyun did not wait to recruit the city, but only appointed Hou Junji. Xu Shiji continued to attack the city and ensured that it was securely taken, he personally led an army of 100,000 to bypass the city wall from the east, rushing through the rocky beach area of ​​the river valley, and advancing to the north of Taigu City.

There were more than 20,000 Tang troops in front, running away, and the pursuers behind them were chasing them relentlessly.

After rushing for more than ten miles, there was indeed a sound of fighting in front of him. Xue Wanren and Pei Yuanqing brought an elite soldier to ambush here and fought fiercely with Li Shimin and other teams who were the first to leave the city.

"kill--"

Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, Luo Shixin and others came to the front and began to get closer to Li Jiancheng's team.

Once Li Jiancheng's men and the front blockades, the prince of Tang and the King of Qin may all die here in battle.

The left guard general Dou Ting stopped holding a horse spear and shouted, "Leave five thousand men and horses, follow this general to cut off the rear, and buy time for His Royal Highness to withdraw."

Five thousand men stopped, turned their heads and set up a formation to block them.

Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others were all tiger generals, and they charged with cavalry teams, with spears rolling in, colliding with the five thousand Tang troops. In an instant, many soldiers fell in a pool of blood, screaming and anger came one after another.

"Kill here!"

Cheng Yaojin and Luo Shixin cooperated, one of them waved the horse lance, the other holding a spear, carrying a cavalry, and tearing the cloth apart like scissors, making a gap.

Qin Qiong led his troops to advance as a whole and wanted to swallow this team.

At this time, Li Shimin, Yuchi Jingde and others in the front were also rushing to get rid of the ambush, but as soon as they rushed out a hundred steps, some arrows tied with gunpowder shot down, and the sound of artillery fire suddenly became connected and continued to explode.

Puff puff puff!

The man was tilted and the horse was fuzzy, and a large number of Tang soldiers rolled to the ground, either dead or injured.

Li Shimin and others also had the lottery, and were more or less rubbed into the iron sheet.

"King of Qin?"

"It doesn't matter!" Li Shimin gritted his teeth and insisted, looking at the blood in his arms, but was not moved. He knew that the key was at this time. If he stopped, he would definitely be unable to survive.

Yuchi Jingde yelled, holding a steel whip in one hand and a horse spear in the other, guarding him, forcing a bloody path and breaking through to the Jinyang direction.

"Don't chase after you, stop the people behind you." Xue Wanren shouted, organizing the people, turning around, and encircling Li Jiancheng's team.

The thousands of people formed a three-dimensional defense line, with long spears, horse lances, knives, and crossbows all set up, and the cold light was shining.
