The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 810 Little Victory

This battle is not easy to fight!

Looking at the army that was coming to Luoyang City without speed, Li Xian's heart inevitably felt a little sinking. It was nothing else, just because although it was far away, Li Xian had already seen the strength of the army of the King of Yue - Li Xian himself led the army all year round and knew that it was not easy to march in the snow, and now the rhythm of the march of the king of Yue was grasped. Excellent. Marching at this speed can keep the queue neat and save physical strength. There is no doubt that it is a well-trained teacher. This is naturally not a good thing for Li Xian, who wants to guard the lonely city. Of course, Li Xian is not very concerned about it. After all, how many evil battles have been fought, and it is a little dangerous at the moment. Difficult, Li Xian doesn't believe that he can't get through.

"The whole army stopped and lined up!"

Compared with the coldness of Li Xian at the top of the city, Li Zhen, who was marching to the middle army, looked complacent. Looking at the approaching tall city wall of Luoyang City, the enthusiasm in her eyes was almost unconcealed, as if he had already entered it. Of course, fantasy is fantasy, but Li Zhen was not complacent. Step, the army came two miles away from the city, but when he saw that he raised his hand, he loudly issued an order to line up the city.

"Woo, woo, woo, woo..."

Li Zhen gave an order, and the messengers who followed him sounded the horn vigorously. The army that was on the way quickly stopped and quickly set up a sub-attack under the city. However, seeing the banners, the murderous spirit rose in the air, which was extremely compelling!

"Father, please take the first attack, and beg your father's approval!"

The army has just made a good position. Li Chong couldn't hold it anymore. He led several guards and rushed to the central army. One rolled out of the saddle and got off the horse. He bowed and asked for the battle in a loud voice.

"My son is not in a hurry. You can fight in the battle. Since our army has been rebellious with the imperial edict, we must finally tell the world. This is the way to salute first and then soldiers."

Li Zhen also wanted to take Luoyang with one breath. She not only wanted to avenge the lost dog a few days ago, but also wanted to ascend the throne as soon as possible to seize the name of justice. However, her mind was not dizzy because of this. She knew that the battle of siege was not a child's play. When she had not prepared the equipment to attack the city, she launched it blindly, nine times out of ten. He hit the wall and came back. In case it hurt the morale of the army, it would be a big trouble. Of course, Li Zhen was not in a hurry to attack the city and there were other factors. That is, he knew that Luoyang was already a lonely city. Even if Li Xian gave the imperial edict to the king of the world, the troops of each state would not want to gather in three or two months. In addition, he had been sealed by the avalanche of Weishan. According to the accurate news of the mountain, it is difficult for the Hexi army to rush to Luoyang City in a short time. He can deal with it calmly and launch a strong attack in the best state. In the first battle, he will fight in Luoyang City!

"Father Shengming!"

Although Li Chong is dedicated to defeating Li Xian, he has shown his ability, but he also knows that this is not the best time to attack the city. The reason why he is eager to fight is just a gesture, not for the war itself, but to please Li Zhen. The purpose has been achieved, and he will not be entangled in the war itself, and It was a face full of admiration and claimed to be praised.

"Well, come on, go, Wen Zhao will tell the thieves in the city!"

Li Zhen was obviously satisfied with Li Chong's humility and courage to fight. She nodded with relief, and then raised her voice and drank. A loud civil official responded to the promise and led several armored horses to the city.

"Listen to the people in the city, the traitor Li Xian killed his father and mother. He was very rebellious. My prince received the imperial edict and came to ask for the thief. I hope you don't act against the treason and surrender early to avoid self-mistake! If there is stubborn resistance, as soon as our army is released, you will become powder, and you will be buried with the thieves for ten thousand years..."

The civil official sent by Li Zhen had a loud voice, and his voice was extremely loud. His true face was extremely hateful. Before he finished speaking, the guards of the East Palace at the head of the city were scolded.

"Bow the bow!"

Li Xian has never been a good person. Hearing that the civil servant was full of nonsense, he was too lazy to listen to it any more. As soon as he raised his hand, he said coldly, and the guard beside him handed over the iron tire bow that Li Xian used to use.

"Whew!"

Since his return from Hexi, Li Xian has not been in battle for many years, but his martial arts have not been put down, and his archery skills are the same. However, seeing that Li Xian only exerted his strength, he has pulled the iron tire bow of the eight stones round, aiming at the official of the Yuewang Mansion, who is 150 steps away from the city, but after hearing a string ringing, he is an arrow. The carved feather arrows have cut through the sky like flying out of the sky, and roared into the throat of the subordinate official of the Yue Wangfu. The poor civilian official didn't even have time to howl, so he fell down. Even if he could not die, the few armored men who followed him were so scared that even the bodies of the civil servants. He didn't have time to clean up, so he beat the horse in fear and fled back to this array. How embarrassed it would be to say how embarrassed it was.

"Your Majesty's power!"

"H Long live!"

"Good shot, thief, nonsense, it's time to kill!"

......

Seeing those armored men in such a embarrassment, the guards of the East Palace on the head of the city all cheered in unison, pointing to the army under the city, laughing and scolding Wuji. For a moment, the momentum of the defenders at the head of the city suddenly rose.

"Wang Fangming!"

Although it was not a big deal to shoot the civil servant who shouted, it may hit the arrogance of the army of the King of Yue, but it is not bad. Of course, Li Xian did not intend to give up. After casually throwing the iron tire bow to the bodyguard beside him, he drank in a calm voice.

"Weichen is there!"

Wang Fangming waited on the side. Hearing Li Xian's name, he dared not neglect it and hurriedly bowed and answered.

"Declaration!"

Li Xian did not look back, but just ordered indifferently.

"No!"

Wang Fangming answered respectfully, strode to the city plate, leaned out, and looked at the hundreds of thousands of troops under the city as nothing. He reached out and took out a yellow silk masked imperial edict from his wide sleeves, spread it out, and breathed it. He shouted loudly, "The Holy Son of Heaven has an edict: Li Zhen, a traitor, as an important minister of the society, no Thinking of repaying the former emperor's kindness, he rebelled with the treacherous huskies and tycophants, and ravaged the court first. After the rebellion, his crime should be killed, and your rebellion should be evil. It is also a great sin of ten evils. Today, the son of heaven has the virtue of good life. You and others are reintegrated anyway. There are those who take the head of Li Zhen. They forgive the original sins, reward thousands of money, seal the princes of thousands of households, and take their rebellious sons. Reward..."

"Yan Wanshan, take your people up and shoot that bastard to death!"

Li Zhen came to the army this time. It can be said that she was full of ambition. But first, she was shot by Li Xian to kill the messenger, as if she had been slapped in the face. At this time, she heard that Wang Fangming sold himself at a clear price like this, and the anger in his heart rose. He thought that he had a strong force, but he refused to Ping Bai was pressed by Li Xian, and then he roared and gave the order.

"No!"

Yan Wanshan was a gangster in the world. Later, he voted for Li Zhen. He had been responsible for doing some dark things around him. There were many brave people who dared to die. This time, he was appointed as the deputy general of the Chinese army by Li Zhen. He was very angry. After hearing Li Zhen's order and hurriedly answering, he led 500 cavalry to rush out like thunder. In this array, he rushed down the city like a meteor.

Looking for death!

The first thing in the battle of siege is morale. Li Xian knows this point better than anyone. Whether it is the previous shooting of the subordinate of the Yue Palace or letting the king declare the decree, there is only one fundamental purpose, which is to provoke Li Zhen. The best result is to make him attack the city without adequate preparation to fight against his morale, even if not Zeng, it's also good to kill and injure one of his soldiers and horses first. Because of this, when he saw Yan Wanshan rushing over, Li Xian was not angry but happy. He sneered, raised his hand, and ordered loudly, "The bow and crossbow ready!"

"Hear the bow!"

Yan Wanshan has been wandering in the capital for many years. I have seen the power of Li Xian. I didn't dare to be careless. When the horse was running, I had made up my mind not to fight with Li Xian for a long time. After preparing for a round of riding and shooting, I withdrew. Because of this, when there was still a full 300 steps away from the city, I had roared and ordered. .

"Fighting arrows!"

"C shoot!"

The galloping cavalry team quickly rushed to a distance of less than 80 steps from the city. Li Xian on the city and Yan Wanshan under the city almost issued a shooting order at the same time. In an instant, dark clouds composed of two steel arrows flew almost at the same time, staggered by, and roaring towards their respective targets.

The range of the Tang Dynasty's standard riding bow is shorter than that of the step bow, and the effective range is only about 45 steps. However, Yan Wanshan's headquarters are all made of special strong bows, with a range of 60 steps away. In addition, with the help of the horse's speed, the effective range has been expanded to 70 steps, which is already the elite of the Tang Dynasty. The elite division, this attack of arrow rain is not small. Unfortunately, the defenders in the city have been prepared for a long time. A huge shield covered with raw cowhide suddenly stood up, and an indestructible shield wall has appeared in the head of the city. It is difficult to hurt the defenders at all, except for Yanwanshan's headquarters. The range of the serial crossbows in the hands of the guards of the East Palace is already one step higher than that of ordinary bows. The flat shooting has an effective range of 60 steps. At this time, it is condescending, and the effective range is as far as 80 steps away. Such a vigorous arrow rain is about to fall, although the unobstructed Yanwanshan's headquarters raised the cavalry circle in time. Shield, but how much area can a small round shield cover? How can it stop the looting of steel arrows all over the sky? In an instant, nearly 30 people howled and fell off the horse.

"Withdraw!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yan Wanshan dared to be beaten in the same place again. He roared and fled back to the army in dismay. Then the embarrassment suddenly provoked the ridicule of the defenders of the city for a long time.

"The last general is incompetent, please punish him."

The impact was fruitless, and some of the soldiers and horses were broken. Yan Wanshan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. After the horse returned to this array, he pleaded guilty.

"General Yan doesn't have to be like this. He is careless. Order, retreat one ri and camp!"

Under the unfavorable assault, Li Zhen calmed down. She knew that she had fallen into Li Xian's fierce strategy and damaged her own morale in vain. She refused to fight like this. After shouting, she strangled her soldiers back and set up a barracks three miles away from the city...
