When taking stock of Ming Taizong at the beginning, Lao Zhu was stunned!

Chapter 73 There is nothing they can do about such an emperor!

The early years of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang looked at it with some enthusiasm. The Tang Dynasty not only had strong cavalry and excellent infantry, but also had cavalry and infantry fighting together. The infantry faced the enemy head-on, and the cavalry crossed back and forth from the sides.

It's a pity that his big army has just been established now. It will take some time to raise such an army.

I couldn't help but think again and persuade myself:

Wait, wait! ——
Han Dynasty, the fourth year of Yuanshou.

Liu Che looked at the two generals Huo Qubing and Wei Qing with envious expressions, and couldn't help but yearn for them. These Tang Dynasty cavalry were really excellent!

Why are their powerful horses far inferior?
I don’t know where it comes from?
[Wang Shichong, who failed in his last resistance, completely retreated into Luoyang City. Seeing the failure of his last resistance, many counties and cities behind Luoyang also surrendered to the Tang Dynasty again. 】

[At the same time, Li Shimin also started a plan to attack the city. However, the city wall of Luoyang was dozens of feet high. During the construction, the city wall was made extremely thick. Even ladders, heavy crossbows and other siege engineering machinery were in vain. return. 】

[Therefore, many generals suggested to Li Shimin that Wang Shichong was no longer able to become a powerful man, so it was better to retreat temporarily to replenish food and grass, and then slowly plan for it later. 】

[However, it was directly rejected by Li Shimin, and those who suggested it were each punished with thirty boards. 】

[Then why is Wang Shichong struggling to hold on?Naturally, he was waiting for Dou Jiande's reinforcements. However, Wang Shichong did not expect that it took him so long to ask for reinforcements, which made Dou Jiande's journey to Luoyang extremely difficult, and most places were controlled by the Tang army. 】

[For this reason, he chose to take the water route, and prepared to capture Hulao Pass and go all the way south. 】

[Under the guidance of Li Shimin's excellent intelligence system, Tang Jun obviously also knew that Dou Jiande was about to attack Hulao Pass. 】

[If it can be defended, then Wang Shichong will always wait for reinforcements. When food is cut off, the city gate will naturally be opened. Therefore, Hulao Pass must be defended. If it cannot be defended, many counties and counties that have surrendered will definitely rebel again. The Tang Army will face great danger. 】

[Therefore, many generals requested to stop the siege of Luoyang and to stand aside first, waiting for Luoyang to automatically collapse. They should concentrate their forces to block other reinforcements. 】

[However, Li Shimin made a bold decision. He personally led four thousand cavalry to Hulao Pass, while the rest stayed behind to besiege Luoyang and continue the siege. 】

Liu Che felt a little ridiculous. He looked at Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, his two strong generals: "Are these four thousand cavalry a little short? Can they really be useful?"

You know, the miracle was just mentioned. Dou Jiande led more than [-] troops, and Li Shimin's [-] cavalrymen probably couldn't even make a splash!

Huo Qubing answered first: "The four thousand cavalry led by Tang Taizong this time are probably the elite of the Tang army, and according to Tang Taizong's fighting style, he probably also implemented a beheading policy. If the enemy is beheaded, the remaining soldiers will be killed." In fact, it’s nothing to be afraid of.”

Tang Dynasty, Wude Ninth Year.

Li Yuan's memories were brought back by the miracle. According to his memory, he, a good second son, seemed to have acted extremely recklessly, but the final result was unexpected by everyone. However, he became a big limelight and his prestige was unparalleled at the time. People can match it!
[In March, Li Shimin led four thousand cavalry to Hulao Pass. At the same time, along the way, he also ambushed Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Sun Shubao and others by the roadside. He led Yuchi Jingde and several followers to keep approaching the enemy. 】

[At this time, Yuchi Jingde obviously noticed something was wrong, and kept asking Li Shimin to let him investigate the intelligence. He hoped that Li Shimin could return to the military camp as the commander-in-chief. Even if he didn't want to sit in the rear, he couldn't commit such a dangerous crime in the west. This was their Dereliction of duty as a subordinate! 】

[However, Li Shimin repeatedly promised that once he discovered the enemy and found out the situation, he would return immediately and never stay. 】

Tang Dynasty, the third year of Zhenguan.

Yuchi Jingde looked at Li Shimin who was swearing in the miracle, and couldn't help but look slightly moved. He once again thought of his experience that year, and how much he wanted to persuade himself in the miracle: Don't believe him!

That time it made him nervous!
Did you promise to return immediately once discovered?

Are you just deceiving an honest man like him?

Although some of the other ministers knew what happened in the early years and some didn't, they all understood the character of their emperor even now, and they all sighed for Yuchi Jingde at that time.
-
Ming Dynasty, Yongle 16th year.

Zhu Di was educating his grandson: "You see, when you want to revive the morale of the army and enhance morale, a big victory is the simplest and most effective. But what if there is no big victory, or there is an urgent need for a big victory? ?”

"Then you must take the lead and lead by example. Of course, grandpa does not want you to take risks. Tang Taizong's approach does not apply to everyone."

[Li Shimin’s promise to Yuchi Jingde was actually fulfilled, but it was a bit outrageous. 】

[Three miles away from Dou Jiande's camp, Li Shimin met his patrolling soldiers. Having discovered the enemy, he did not stay and was ready to turn back. 】

[But before leaving, he took a bow and shot an arrow, killing one of the opponent's generals, and left the words "I am the King of Qin", and then let the others go first, with himself and Yuchi Jingde at the rear. 】

[It has to be said that Captain Chi Jingde was on tenterhooks all the way. Although both of them were extremely brave, facing five or six thousand cavalry behind them and having to back up others, it was not a big pressure. 】

[Whenever they were about to be overtaken, the two would bend their bows and arrows, and shoot the enemy generals, so that the other party would slow down. 】

[Finally, as they continued to retreat, the army chasing the two of them finally entered the ambush circle. Soldiers and horses from all sides rushed out, killing the 6000 people at once, and finally completely collapsed and captured many generals. 】

Yuchi Jingde looked at himself in the miracle and couldn't help but feel a little moved. The miracle was so considerate!

He was really worried at the time!

It would be fine if he died, but Li Shimin couldn't die!

Did you dare to stop for a moment?

Not at all!

If there was a slight mistake on the road, if an arrow hit the horse, if there was a deep pit and the horse fell down, he and Li Shimin would not be in this hall today!

Li Shimin, who was in the main hall, ignored the resentful looks below and smiled to himself: "My dear friends, I am truly a gentleman. I will definitely fulfill my promises. I am by no means the kind of person who keeps his word. people!"

The hearts of many ministers were momentarily twisted. They had a lot to say but still stopped their desire to speak. Then they responded: "Your Majesty is wise."

What can I do?
There is nothing they can do with such an emperor!

Fortunately, these are all small problems, and being able to solve them is better than anything else!
