    ?

    "Bang!"

    The suspension bridge fell, connecting the inside and outside.

    Although there were soldiers stationed on the tower in the east city, even if they discovered the situation and started to kill the tower to stop it, it was already too late.  The gates of the city were opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and a mighty army had come outside the city.

    Li Xiaogong rushed forward with his army.

    Even though Li Xiaogong only had 3,000 elites this time, these 3,000 elites were all men who were good at fighting, and they were all veterans who followed Li Shimin in the Southern and Northern Wars. They rushed forward quickly, and within a short period of time, they had already killed  into the city.

    As soon as Li Xiaogong entered the city, he shouted: "Which one is the Qu family, Qu Wufeng?"

    "This old man is!"

    Qu Wufeng stood up and answered.

    Seeing the Tang army entering the city, he decided in his heart that as long as the Tang army began to enter the city, Liu Heita would not be able to defend Quzhou County.

    Li Xiaogong ordered: "Lead the way and go straight to Nancheng."

    "yes!"

    Qu Wufeng replied immediately.

    He got on his horse and led Li Xiaogong to the south city with three thousand family private soldiers.  Although Li Xiaogong said he was going to the south city, in fact, he left behind 300 soldiers to sweep Liu Heita's soldiers in the east city.

    Now on the tower of the East City, Liu Heita's soldiers saw that the city gate was broken, and they did not resist at all, nor did they come down to fight. Instead, seeing that the situation was wrong, they went directly to the south of the city along the wall on the tower.

    The news of the collapse of the east city spread to the south city first.

    At this moment, Nancheng is still fighting.

    Countless soldiers of the Tang Army continued to attack, intending to cross the moat and climb the tower.  It's just that Liu Heita's garrison is extremely powerful and not easy to deal with. The Tang army is now attacking violently, but has not achieved much victory for the time being.

    Liu Heita is confident in defending the city.

    I don't think it will be broken by Li Shimin.

    Even if Li Shimin's army is tyrannical, it is not an easy task to attack the strong Quzhou County.

    "Report!"

    Just when Liu Heikai commanded the soldiers to resist, not far away, there were soldiers fleeing in panic, running in panic.  The soldiers came to Liu Heita's side and shouted: "My lord, something is wrong, Dongcheng, Dongcheng"

    Because he ran too fast, he didn't catch his breath for a while, and he couldn't speak fluently.

    Liu Heita's heart skipped a beat.

    How is Dongcheng established?

    Liu Heita's hand suddenly rested on the soldier's shoulder, and asked, "Tell me, what happened in Dongcheng?"

    The soldier breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The east city is broken."

    "impossible!"

    Liu Heikai gritted his teeth and said, "There is also a garrison in Dongcheng. The war just started, and Dongcheng was suddenly destroyed. This is absolutely impossible."

    The soldier said: "Your Majesty, the East City is really broken. There are spies in the city, and more than three thousand people should appear, open the gate of the East City, cut off the suspension bridge, so that the Tang army outside the city entered the city. Now these troops are  Come to the south city to kill."

    Liu Heita's cheeks twitched endlessly.

    Lost!

    Lost again!

    The city is lost again!

    The last time in Mingshui County, it was the soldiers of the Tang Army who quietly climbed up the tower from outside the city, and then fought with the garrisoned troops, causing Mingshui County to be destroyed.

    This time in Quzhou County, because of the moat, Liu Heita also arranged for patrols, so that what happened last time, did not expect that this time there was a problem not outside the city, but inside the city.

    Some people even colluded with Tang Jun and opened the city from inside the city.

    Liu Heizai was extremely angry inside, but even if he was angry, the problem could not be solved right now.  In the case of Dongcheng being broken, the first thing Liu Heita had to do was to break out of the encirclement.

    Otherwise, if you are blocked in the city, it will be completely over.

    Just when Liu Heitai was angry, Li Shimin outside the city had already received the news from Li Xiaogong's arrangement that the troops rushed to the city, knowing that the east city was broken and the army had already marched towards the south city.

    Li Shimin immediately ordered the soldiers to shout loudly, told about the collapse of the East City, and encouraged the soldiers under his command to charge bravely. Waves of Tang soldiers kept rushing forward.

    Its offensive is getting more and more fierce.

    His fighting spirit is as fierce as fire.

    So much so that even though there were countless soldiers of Liu Heitai guarding the city tower, under the persecution of the Tang army, the soldiers could no longer withstand the attack and began to retreat steadily.

    "Withdraw!"

    Liu Heita was very helpless and gave the order to retreat.

    But LiuIn this retreat, he did not run along the city wall to break out of that city.  He took the soldiers and went straight to the west of the city, because there was a ferry near the west of the city, and there were boats and boats on the river bank.

    The river in the city is about three feet wide, especially the river is extremely fast. Once you get on a boat, you can go north along the river in the west of the city and quickly leave the city from the north city.

    This is the best way to leave.

    As soon as Liu Heita arrived in Quzhou County, he arranged a retreat.  So even though he was defeated, Liu Heitai never panicked in his heart, and the army began to withdraw, heading towards the ferry in the west of the city.

    However, in order to stop the pursuers, Liu Heita also left a group of troops to stop them, so as to delay the time.

    Liu Heita quickly evacuated, and boarded the ship as soon as he arrived at the ferry.

    Densely packed boats, carrying people away quickly.

    When Li Shimin was attacking outside the city, he had been paying attention to the changes in the city.  When Li Shimin got the news from Liu Heita, knowing that Liu Heita had not broken through any city gate in Quzhou County, a bright smile appeared on his face.

    If so!

    Everything was as Du Qi expected.

    And when Li Shimin broke through the county seat, the news spread quickly, to the camp where Li Jiancheng was located not far from the periphery.

    Li Jiancheng became excited immediately.

    Opportunity has come!

    Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuanji and Li Shentong, and said, "Fourth, the king of Huai'an County, now that the county is broken, Liu Heitai will definitely break through next. Even if the King of Qin is chasing and intercepting him, Liu Heitai's combat power is not weak, and he will definitely come out."  The two of you should be in position immediately, guard the important passages everywhere, and prepare to make a move."

    "yes!"

    Li Yuanji and Li Shentong responded immediately.

    Both of them had looks of expectation on their faces.

    Because this battle is going to be a meritorious service.

    Xue Wanche was standing below, he clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, what will you do in the end?"

    Li Jiancheng said: "Xue Qing, your task is the heaviest and most difficult. After Liu Heita was defeated and fled, the Turkic cavalry entrenched in Quzhou County are likely to come out to rescue. Your task is to lead the cavalry to support the surrounding area.  .Once the Turkic cavalry comes out, you must hold them back. This king does not expect you to defeat the Turkic cavalry, but only hopes that you can hold them back."

    Upon hearing this, Xue Wanche clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the mission will be completed in the end."

    Li Jiancheng waved his hands and said, "Let's go."

    "yes!"

    Li Yuanji, Li Shentong and Xue Wanche all answered.

    The three of them went to work separately.

    Li Jiancheng stood up at this time, with a bright smile on his face, he was looking forward to the victory of this battle.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
