"Withdraw!"
"Retreat!"
Seeing that the gunpowder explosion began to spread, Xue Wanche didn't dare to waste any more time, and directly gave the order to retreat. It wasn't that he was unwilling to resist with all his strength, but that after the gunpowder buried around was detonated, the gunpowder in some haystacks near the fortifications was also detonated.
It has already affected Xue Wanche himself.
Countless shells flew in and landed inside the fortifications. Even if Xue Wanche's troops were scattered, the situation was not optimistic, and many soldiers were killed.
One after another, Tang soldiers got up and retreated with Xue Wanche. Even so, many people were bombed again, and many people were even killed by the explosion of haystacks and the explosion of gunpowder in nearby sacks.
For a time, there were countless casualties.
Countless soldiers were affected by this.
Xue Wanche's fortifications were completely scrapped. Even if it is evacuated, it will suffer countless losses.
This scene fell into Du Qi's telescope.
Du Qi saw clearly everything that happened on the ground through the telescope. He saw the haystacks ignited with monstrous flames, saw the area where the sacks were located rumbled and continued to explode, and the flames soared into the sky, and he also saw explosions in many places.
"Your self-inflicted crime!"
A cold look flashed across Du Qi's eyes.
At this moment, he roughly understood Tang Jun's intention, which was to confuse people by resisting. Then when Xia Guo's army landed on the shore, they detonated all the buried gunpowder. After all, Xia Guo had too many troops, and after the soldiers landed on the shore, they would inevitably spread out. When the gunpowder is detonated at that time, Xia Guo soldiers will definitely suffer countless losses.
This is Tang Jun's intention.
pity!
Under the bombardment of dense cannons, all the gunpowder on the shore was detonated by the artillery fire. So much so that Xue Wanche's side fell into a difficult situation on the contrary, and the situation was extremely difficult.
Shangguanyi said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the bombing we landed on the pier was really beautiful. Li Shimin intended to do the final defense, but now under the bombing, Li Shimin's fortifications were completely blown up. Tang Jun If you retreat, you will have no power to fight. Datang, it is completely over."
Xue Rengui also said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the enemy has already evacuated, we can land now."
Du Qi nodded and said: "Let's land, but remember, you must be cautious and cautious. The more it is at this last moment, the more important it is. We are going deep alone, and we have won this battle right now. We must fight steadily to consolidate The result of the battle. If the ship capsizes here in Jiangdu in the end, it will not be good for us."
Xue Rengui said: "I understand."
Du Qidao: "You lead the vanguard, one step ahead, I will come later."
"yes!"
Xue Rengui responded immediately.
Immediately, Xue Rengui ordered the army to dock, and all the warships landed in an orderly manner. Although this process was carried out in an orderly manner, it took nearly half an hour before all the troops landed from the ferry terminal.
All soldiers lined up in formation.
Xue Rengui mobilized an army led by Liu Yunye as a vanguard, and went straight to Jiangdu City.
The army pursued Xue Wanche.
Du Qi then postponed and hurried on his way.
Du Qi arranged for an army to stay on the shore to guard the ferry terminal. The warship at the ferry terminal is the most important, the most critical, once it is lost, it will be unimaginable. Therefore, the guarding force is a full three thousand elite. The rest of the army was led by Du Qi and followed closely behind Xue Rengui.
Xue Rengui and Liu Yunye led the army to the front, rushing all the way to catch up with Xue Wanche's team.
Chased all the way, but couldn't catch up.
After all, Xue Wanche's retreat was very fast, Xue Wanche led the team to escape first, and ran all the way to Jiangdu City. The Sentinel who was staring at the battlefield had already rushed back one step ahead of Xue Wanche, and returned to Jiangdu City in a short time.
Jiangdu City, on top of the city.
Li Shimin is dressed in armor and is here with all the civil and military officials.
He looked a little anxious, waiting quietly.
"Urgent report, urgent report!"
When the shouts of sentries came back in the distance, Li Shimin suddenly became nervous. The future of Datang lies in this battle. If this battle is won, Datang will not fall even if he stands tall in the river. If Datang loses this battle, then Datang will not be able to defend Jiangdu. After all, Li Shimin's troops around him are running out, only a few thousand people are left, and Jiangdu cannot be defended.
The sentry is getting closer and closer to the city.
When the sentry came under the tower, the city gate was wide open, and the sentry went straight in,Quickly enter the Chidao, and then come to the tower. As soon as the sentry came in front of Li Shimin, the sentry quickly said: "Your Majesty, General Xue has been defeated. Our army at the ferry terminal can no longer hold back and retreat."
Wow! !
There was an uproar around.
All the officials of the imperial court looked tense, and all of them sighed inwardly.
Lost again!
Tang Jun's hope lies in the battle at the ferry.
It's a pity that we lost!
The expression on Li Shimin's face tightened immediately, and his heart sighed even more. Fortunately, Li Shimin had already discussed with Wei Shuyu, Wei Zheng, and Fang Xuanling beforehand, and had already made preparations, so Li Shimin didn't panic, and directly ordered: "Withdraw the troops, we will withdraw from Jiangdu."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, there won't be a deadly battle. If it is a deadly battle, I don't know how many people will be killed. Now evacuate directly, then they can evacuate together.
Li Shimin looked around again, seeing that the officials around him were relieved. He sighed inwardly, none of the officials in the entire Tang Dynasty was willing to fight to the death. Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling, and ordered: "Fang Qing, you can arrange it directly."
"yes!"
Fang Xuanling responded immediately.
He made arrangements quickly, then looked at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. Our food has been moved away first. All the supplies have been taken care of. What we need to take away now are only some It¡¯s just documents and documents. We can evacuate first, and then ask Xue Wanche to cut off the escape route and destroy the bridge. In short, we will not give Du Qi a chance to pursue.¡±
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Withdraw."
As soon as he gave an order, he led everyone down the tower, and then began to evacuate.
The officials evacuated, naturally bringing their families with them. Fortunately, the important officials were actually well prepared. So when the order to evacuate was issued, the family members of the officials also quickly evacuated together.
The entire team evacuated at an extremely fast speed.
In addition, Fang Xuanling specially arranged people along the way to notify Xue Wanche who had returned from the evacuation, and asked Xue Wanche to deploy soldiers along the way, so as to specifically block and delay the time. He also asked Xue Wanche to arrange soldiers to either destroy bridges or cut down trees to block roads when retreating, so as to prevent Xia's army from pursuing.
There are many water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, with small rivers and bridges everywhere, so after destroying the bridges, it will not be easy for Xia Guo's army to pursue them, at least it will delay a lot of time.
In this way, Tang Jun can withdraw
After the Tang army withdrew, the army led by Xue Rengui arrived at Jiangdu City. Because there was no power in the city, Xue Rengui took the city without any effort.
At the beginning, Xue Rengui was worried about any conspiracy, so he was extremely cautious, controlling all the gates of the four sides of the city, and even searched carefully inside the city. But in the end, after checking it out, no problems were found.
Immediately afterwards, Du Qi led the army to arrive.
The army arrived in Jiangdu, and after Du Qi entered the city, Xue Rengui came to Du Qi's side and reported: "Your Majesty, Li Shimin has escaped again. I arranged for soldiers to pursue them, but because Li Shimin withdrew quickly and Xue Wanche destroyed the enemy along the way. Bridges, and blocked roads, it is impossible for our large forces to pursue."
Du Qi said with a smile: "It's okay, now that Li Shimin has lost Jiangdu, and lost troops and generals, it's nothing to worry about. The next step is to consolidate the results of the battle, completely seize the Jiangnan Road, and take down the states and places along the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal. In this way, Li Shimin's living space It will become smaller and smaller. After this battle, the overall situation will be settled.¡±
For Du Qi, when Li Shimin lost Chang'an, he had already lost the overall situation. Now that Li Shimin loses Jiangdu again, the threat will weaken even more. With Du Qi taking control of the situation, Li Shimin's situation will become more and more difficult. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
