Chapter 1807: All armies are irresistible
Three hundred meters, two hundred meters, one hundred meters…
Seeing that the crossbow stone array was ineffective and could not stop Li Cunxiao at all, everyone including Li Shimin panicked.
After all, Li Shimin was not an ordinary king. He woke up from his panic in an instant and ordered: "Li Cunxiao has a limited time to burn his internal energy. If it is delayed until his internal energy is exhausted, he will be dead."
Immediately sent an order to order sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, and heavy armored infantry to form a formation to stop Li Cunxiao. "
)
General Zhang Xiu, Hua Xiong, Li Jue and other generals were relieved when they saw that Li Shimin did not send them to fight together, but only sent soldiers to consume Li Cunxiao. After all, Li Cunxiao was in a state of burning internal energy, and whoever bumped into him would die.
Li Shimin personally participated in the battle that besieged and killed Xiang Yu. Naturally, he knew that Li Cunxiao in this state could not win even if all the powerful generals in the army joined forces. Therefore, it was naturally impossible for him to be stupid enough to send generals to kill Li Cunxiao.
Li Shimin has made up his mind to use soldiers to consume all Li Cunxiao's internal energy. After all, the duration of the burning internal energy state is limited, and it is absolutely impossible for Li Cunxiao to kill all the soldiers in his hands.
Aren’t you Li Cunxiao amazing?
Isn’t it possible to fight and kill?
I have an army of 150,000. Let’s see how many you can kill by yourself!
It is easy to get a thousand armies but hard to find a general. Between generals and soldiers, Li Shimin decisively chose the former, and this was indeed the wisest approach.
Li Shimin felt that the large square formation composed of spear formations, sword and shield formations, and heavy armored infantry formations would definitely have a delaying effect. In fact, it did have an effect, but the delaying effect was minimal.
Li Cunxiao, who was burning with internal energy, ran so fast that even ordinary war horses could not catch up. How could these ordinary soldiers and heavy infantry keep up with Li Cunxiao?
The Tang army hadn't formed its formation yet, but Li Cunxiao took advantage of every opportunity and got directly into the Tang army. What followed was a rampage.
Every soldier standing in front of him was knocked away directly. As long as he passed by, it was even less possible to catch up with Li Cunxiao. On the contrary, the formation was messed up by turning around to pursue.
Seeing Li Cunxiao messing up his front army by himself, Li Shimin was even more shocked and frightened. Now he really understood what it means to "only be quick and never break".
“Send the order and order Feixiong Army and Xuanjia Army to attack Li Cunxiao.”
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and said, there was no other way. After all, Li Cunxiao's speed was too fast, and the infantry couldn't catch up even if they wanted to encircle him. Only the cavalry could keep up with him.
After hearing this, the expressions of the four great counselors changed. Du Ruhui immediately warned: "My lord, you must not do this. Li Cunxiao is already in our army, and sending out cavalry to deal with one person will only make our army's position worse." It will be even more chaotic. Once the Qin army in the pass breaks out, our army will probably be defeated under the chaos and stampede. "
Li Shimin slapped his head suddenly. He only wanted to deal with Li Cunxiao, but he forgot about this problem. It is true that the entire army's formation cannot be disrupted just because of one person.
“So, military advisor, what do you think we should do?”
Li Shimin asked, now he really has nothing to do with Li Cunxiao.
"Judging from the direction of Li Cunxiao's attack, his target must be you, my lord. As long as you retreat, Li Cunxiao will not be able to find your position. If he charges blindly in this army of more than 100,000 people, he will die of exhaustion sooner or later."
“What? You want me to leave the army and escape alone?”
Hearing Du Ruhui's words, Li Shimin immediately exclaimed, then shook his head decisively and said: "No, absolutely not."
Although Li Shimin was afraid of Li Cunxiao, it was impossible for him to abandon an army of 150,000 and flee for his life just because of him. If that were the case, what would the world say about him?
At that time, people in the world will definitely say that Li Shimin is greedy for life and afraid of death. Under the protection of an army of 150,000, he was frightened by Li Cunxiao alone and abandoned the army and fled. If this spreads out, Li Shimin's reputation will definitely be ruined, and he will really lose all face.
Although Li Shimin was afraid of death, he was not afraid of death. How could he endure such humiliation? So naturally I refused decisively.
Du Ruhui and others were not surprised at all by Li Shimin's choice. Li Ru stood up and advised: "My lord, which one is more important, face or life?"
“My lord, Li Cunxiao has gone crazy. According to his attitude, the fifty thousand troops from the front army may not be able to stop him for long.
Once Li Cunxiao rushes to the center of the army and approaches the commander's flag position, all the generals will definitely fight Li Cunxiao in order to protect the safety of my lord. Even if they win by then, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties. "Li Kui advised.
“Yes, my lord…”
After hearing everyone's persuasion, Li Shimin's heart was actually shaken, but he was really unwilling to run away like this. You must know that he was under the protection of an army of 150,000 people. If Li Cunxiao could force him back by himself, then what would happen? Is there any safe place in the world?
“You literati are really greedy for life and afraid of death.”
After Hou Junji pointed at Li Kui and cursed, he knelt down and clasped his fists and said: "My lord, you must not retreat. Facing the Qin army, my lord can retreat. Facing Li Cunxiao alone, if my lord retreats, he will definitely fall." As a laughing stock, I, Tang Jun, will also become a laughing stock.”
“Yes, we can’t retreat, we absolutely can’t retreat.”
“Yes, the worst case scenario is that I’ll fight with Li Cunxiao. Do you really think I’m afraid of death?”
“A severed head is no more than a scar the size of a bowl, but after eighteen years I will be a good man again.”
The Tang army, led by Hou Junji, said that retreating was a bad idea, and they all stood up to oppose it, and even exchanged curses with the civil servants.
Li Shimin was ready to run away. After all, ordinary soldiers obviously couldn't stop Li Cunxiao, and it was impossible for him to really stay here and wait for Li Cunxiao to attack him. However, the generals felt humiliated and took the initiative to ask for a fight. This made Li Shimin feel humiliated. Li Shimin was a little at a loss.
Li Shimin was naturally extremely moved by the fact that the generals even dared to challenge Li Cunxiao in order to maintain their dignity, and actively sought death to save their respect.
But facing the current Li Cunxiao, basically whoever kills him will die, even Li Yuanba is no exception. Li Shimin is reluctant to let these painstakingly trained generals die.
At the time of the civil and military debate between the Tang army, Li Cunxiao had already broken through the front army, entered the middle army, and charged straight towards Li Shimin's Wang Banner.
"Stop the quarrel. If the quarrel continues, Li Cunxiao will come and kill him." Du Ruhui roared.
Hearing this, all the generals also regained their composure, and Li Shimin couldn't help but panic when he saw that Li Cunxiao was about to kill him so soon.
Seeing this, Hou Junji gritted his teeth and said: "General Li Yuanba, and other generals, you protect my lord and go first. I will take my lord's royal flag to lure Li Cunxiao away."
