I'm a marquis in Datang

The sentry officer knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and saluted, "Your Highness, we followed Xue Wanche to inquire about the news, and the sentry sent back the news. Xue Wanche chased the enemy to the Sanjiangkou in front, and was besieged by the Turks and Liu Heizai." , Xue Wanche suffered heavy losses. Now, only about [-] soldiers have returned. Xue Wanche's pursuit has completely failed."

"understood!"

Li Shimin waved his hand.

After the sentry retreated, Li Shimin looked mournful and said, "Erlang, this was caused by Li Jiancheng. A pursuit caused the loss of more than 2 Tang Jun Erlang."

Du Qidao: "I can understand His Highness's mood, so what His Highness has to do is to strengthen his confidence and be steady.

Play steadily and move forward step by step.His Highness now has the sustenance of countless people. "

Li Shimin nodded solemnly.

He knew what Du Qi said, since he had embarked on the road of seizing the heir, Li Shimin would not hesitate or look back.

Don't give up until the Yellow River.

Chapter 416

Joy begets sorrow

As the evening approached, the sky was dark.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the horizon, making the entire horizon golden, as if rendering the entire horizon once.

In the city, in the barracks.

Chinese army tent.

Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and Li Shentong were drinking. At this time, all three of them were a little dizzy from drinking.after all white

I have been chatting and drinking all day long, and I have never stopped drinking.

For Li Jiancheng, winning this battle will inevitably establish a huge prestige.Liu Heitai is a veteran general, such a person is not easy to deal with, it would be a great thing to defeat Liu Heitai, or even win Liu Heitai.

To put it simply, Li Jiancheng is a little drifting now.

He felt that war was nothing more than that.

If he hadn't been by Li Yuan's side all the time in the early years, if he had gone to the battlefield to fight, then now, perhaps he has already made great achievements, accumulated countless military achievements, and would have countless people in the army to support him.

This is what Li Jiancheng thinks now.

Li Shentong is now completely behind Li Jiancheng.Although he said he was a little drunk, in fact, his mind was clear.For an old fox like him, this drink has no effect at all.

Li Shen said: "Congratulations to His Royal Highness, congratulations to His Royal Highness, wait until the army led by Xue Wanche returns triumphantly. Then His Royal Highness, you can draw up a good news, and Pegasus will send someone back to Chang'an to report the good news."

Li Yuanji smiled and said: "There is no need to wait for Xue Wanche to come back. In my opinion, we can draw up a good news now and send it back by flying horse. As long as the good news is sent back, the emperor should reward him."

Li Shentong nodded, stroked his beard and smiled, and said, "What His Royal Highness King Qi said is true."

Li Jiancheng was even more ecstatic.

I am very happy.

This feeling of being praised, this feeling of being respected, is really great.

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier entered and reported: "His Royal Highness, there are sentries returning from the front line."

"pass!"

Li Jiancheng gave an order.

The soldiers went to inform, and a moment later, the sentry came in in a panic, knelt on one knee and said, "His Royal Highness, something is wrong. General Xue went to cover up and kill Liu Heita. He was ambushed and lost troops."

boom! !

Li Jiancheng's mind exploded.

There was a momentary blank in front of my eyes.

Li Jiancheng believes that this battle must be won and it is impossible to fail.But under such a premise, how could it be possible to be ambushed?Just like before, he was already ready to draw up a good report and send it back.

Up to now, everything has ceased.

There's nothing left.

Not only that, he also lost.

Such a situation was placed on Li Jiancheng, and the gap was too great, and Li Jiancheng couldn't accept it for a while.

Li Shentong and Li Yuanji were also dumbfounded.

What's going on!

They all lost.

Li Yuanji couldn't wait to say: "What happened? How many people were lost?"

The scout shook his head and said: "The specific damage result is temporarily unknown. We only know that we were ambushed by the Turks. At that time, General Xue asked us to report the news quickly, so the follow-up result is temporarily unknown. It is estimated that it will take another quarter of an hour at most." , and there will be new news.”

Li Jiancheng's face was livid, and he waved his hands: "Go down!"

"Yes!"

The sentry turned and retreated.

Li Jiancheng's eyes fell on Li Yuanji and Li Shentong, and said: "Liu Heita's army retreated, and there were Turkic cavalry outside to help us, and they were ambushing us. It's a shame that there are Turkic cavalry. This time the pursuit is inevitable. The loss is huge."

Li Shen said: "The reason why the old man lost at the beginning was because Liu Heita colluded with the Turkic people. But the Turkic people have been away for a long time, and they came again. Alas, what a miscalculation, a miscalculation!"

Li Yuanji said: "I thought we were going to seize the opportunity this time. Unexpectedly, now we can't steal the chicken. Li Shimin didn't do anything, but nothing happened. If I had known this, I should have done it." Let Li Shimin go after him."

Li Jiancheng said: "It's meaningless to say this now."

"Come here, tell Wei Zheng to come see you."

Li Jiancheng ordered to go down immediately.

Not long after, Wei Zheng entered the tent and bowed to Li Jiancheng to salute.Seeing Li Jiancheng's slightly drunk appearance, he even felt angry in his heart, wishing to yell at him.

But Wei Zheng lost his mind again.

Persuasion is useless.

He can only go on this road now.
