"Got it."
Li Shimin replied.
After the soldiers retreated, Li Shimin said, "Li Jiancheng invited me in the middle of the night. I don't know what his purpose is. I'll go see him first and see what he has to say. "
Du Qi said, "Your Highness, be careful when you go there."
"I know," said Li Shimin.
He changed into a formal robe and armor and went straight to the Tang dynasty's camp. Li Shimin entered the Crown Prince's tent. After standing still, he glanced inside but didn't see Li Yuanji and Li Shentong. Even Wei Zheng was not there.
Li Shimin said, "Crown Prince, is there anything important you want to tell me?"
Li Jiancheng said, "King of Qin, the purpose of this Crown Prince is to talk about the upcoming war. I don't care how you attack Quzhou County, but you must take it. "
"This Crown Prince has now set up an inescapable net near Quzhou County, blocking Liu Heita's escape route after Quzhou County is broken. So your next task is to lead the army to attack the county. After you break the county, you'll still be in charge of controlling the county. As for the area outside the city, I'll take over. "
Li Jiancheng didn't hesitate and directly gave the order.
Li Shimin sneered inwardly.
Here it comes again!
Li Jiancheng came to pick peaches again.
Last time in Mingshui County, he broke the county. Li Jiancheng directly asked Li Shimin to stay and then arranged Xue Wanche to lead the army to chase after him. Now he came again.
In fact, Li Shimin didn't care much about it. According to Du Qi's inference, Liu Heita certainly couldn't break out of the city but through the water. So Li Jiancheng didn't have the chance to pick peaches.
Li Shimin pretended to be angry and said disdainfully, "Your Highness is really powerful. You did this in Mingshui County and now in Quzhou County."
Li Jiancheng raised his head and said, "What? You don't agree?"
Li Shimin said, "I agree!"
Li Jiancheng sneered and said with a condescending look, "It's good that you agree. Besides, even if you don't agree, you have to agree."
Li Shimin said, "Enough. Eldest Brother, you're the Crown Prince. You're strong, so you can do whatever you want. Besides, if you want to use your power for personal gain and earn merits, Imperial Father will support you. You should be showing off. "
When Li Jiancheng heard his ambiguous words, he laughed instead.
That was how it should be.
Li Shimin should be like this.
Li Jiancheng raised his head and said, "I did use my power for personal gain. So what?"
Li Shimin said, "I said it just now, it's your turn to be cocky. What you want to do after I leave is your business. In short, you can arrange the ambush of Liu Heita outside Quzhou County. I won't get involved. Maybe I have already killed Liu Heita in the county town. "
Li Jiancheng said, "We'll see."
"Goodbye!"
Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
After Li Shimin left, Li Jiancheng sneered twice. He did not believe that Li Shimin could kill Liu Heita in the county.
After all, Liu Heita was not a simple character.
Li Shimin returned to the camp. In front of Du Qi and the others, he told them about Li Jiancheng's arrangement. Du Qi and the others, however, laughed and did not care, because Liu Heita did not break out on land, but by water.
The few of them gathered together and chatted about tomorrow's battle.
The next day, early morning.
Early in the morning, Li Shimin commanded the army and arrived outside Quzhou County's southern city. Even though there was a moat, the Tang Army still surrounded the county town.
Li Shimin spurred his horse and stepped forward again. He said, "Liu Heita, this Prince is here again."
Liu Heita stood on the city gate tower, dressed in armor. He said, "Li Shimin, this Prince is in Quzhou County. If you have the ability, attack. Yesterday, you talked a lot of nonsense, but you didn't really attack. How are you going to attack today? "
"According to your attack method, let alone breaking the county town, it's impossible to climb up my Quzhou County."
"Li Shimin, you want to break Quzhou County? Dream on. This Prince has stockpiled enough food and weapons in Quzhou County. You want to win? That's impossible. "
Liu Heita appeared to be extremely powerful.
He was not afraid of the county town being broken.
Li Shimin said, "Whether or not we can break Quzhou County town doesn't depend on you, Liu Heita. It depends on this battle. This Prince will definitely break the county town. Today, Quzhou County town will be broken! "
Liu Heita heard him and said, "Come, this Prince will wait and see."
Li Shimin said, "Beat the drums!"
"Boom! Boom! "
The war drums were beating.
The mighty war drums resounded in the air. The sound was louder and louder.
In particular, the excited war drums inspired the soldiers in the army, making the Tang Army officers and soldiers in the army all have high fighting spirit. They were ready to fight.
"Kill!"
Li Shimin gave the order.
With Li Shimin's order, a group of officers and soldiers moved and launched the attack.
More and more officers and soldiers kept rushing forward.
They had already launched the attack.
Li Shimin returned to the front of the army. His eyes were sharp, staring at the city gate tower of Quzhou County. It was impossible for Liu Heita to still want to guard Quzhou County.
He must win this battle.
…
In the city, Qu Family.
In the hall.
Qu Wufeng sat on the main seat. A group of people sat below him. They were the leaders of the big clans that Qu Wufeng contacted. This time, to open the city gate to welcome the Tang Army, the Qu Family's strength was still a little weak.
Qu Wufeng knew some people, so he contacted four trustworthy big clans and joined forces to smoothly open the city gate to welcome the Tang Army into the city.
Qu Wufeng said, "Everyone, today is the most critical day. Whether we can expel Liu Heita and the Turks or not depends on defeating Liu Heita today. Otherwise, sooner or later, we will be exploited by Liu Heita. Now that we can make contact with the Tang dynasty, it will be helpful for us to establish our foothold in Quzhou County. I won't say anything unnecessary. In short, today we must win! "
"Victory!"
Everyone answered in unison.
At this time, everyone stopped and looked out of the hall.
Because everyone heard the sound of the war drums.
The vigorous and magnificent war drums had come from the southern city and echoed in the city. Even though they were far away, everyone in the Qu family could still hear them.
After Qu Wufeng heard it, he stood up and said, "The war drums have been beaten, and now the war has happened. Next, we will break the county and welcome the Tang dynasty's army into the city. Everyone, follow me to the eastern city. "
"Let's go!"
Qu Wufeng strode out.
Everyone followed Qu Wufeng and went straight out of the hall. Outside the hall, there were already private soldiers of the family standing in formation. These people were the Qu Family and other families.
"Send out the troops!"
Qu Wufeng directly ordered.
The mighty group of private soldiers headed toward the gate of the East City. There were only more than 3,000 people in this team, but it was not difficult to open the gate.
After all, there were people of the Qu Family in the eastern city.
When everyone arrived at the gate of the eastern city, the Qu Family in charge of the gate immediately ordered to open the gate. Qu Wufeng led his subordinates to the gate, cut the rope of the suspension bridge, and put down the suspension bridge.
