The granary arranged by Li Shimin is at the foot of Mount Lu in Luyang County.
Lushan is behind the camp.
It is backed by mountains and water, but the roads are also convenient. It can receive grain and grass sent from the rear and can smoothly transport the grain to Li Shimin's military camp. It is an extremely convenient place.
The granary covers a very large area. It not only stores grain, but also the rations needed by some war horses, and also some weapons, which are all stored in the granary.
Wang Can led the army and hurried on.
When the ugly time was about to pass, the army led by Wang Can and Huang Zhong quietly arrived outside the granary.
Wang Can did not interfere with the use of troops. He looked at Huang Zhong and nodded to Huang Zhong. He saw that Huang Zhong began to mobilize his troops. His soldiers quickly dispersed and ran around the granary, covering an area of several miles.
The granary was surrounded.
About two-quarters of an hour later, Huang Zhong ordered the soldiers to fire arrows.
"call out!"
The sound of arrows rose into the sky, breaking the silence of the night.
This sound is extremely loud.
As the sound of arrows was heard, in an instant, the soldiers surrounding the granary quickly dropped rockets and lit fires everywhere. On the April night, although the weather was not dry in the scorching summer, the rockets fell on the ground, and as the night cooled down, the rockets fell on the ground.
As soon as the wind blew, the fire began to spread.
Especially in the granary, there are a lot of firewood and many more haystacks for storing grain.
These are flammable.
As the fire burned and thick smoke billowed from everywhere in the camp, the military general stationed in the granary reacted quickly and mobilized soldiers to start putting out the fire.
Sand and gravel are prepared in the camp.
Dry sand and gravel are best for extinguishing fires.
But there were fires burning in all directions of the camp. Even if we wanted to put out the fire, it would not be easy. As the fire became more and more intense, it became difficult to put it out.
Under such conditions, it becomes increasingly difficult to extinguish the fire.
The general stationed there was named Li Yuan.
This person is a clan member of the Tang Dynasty. Although he is not as powerful as Li Shentong, Li Yuanba, Li Xiaogong and others, and his martial arts skills are mediocre, he is more cautious than others, so he stays behind to guard the granary.
Li Yuan quickly mobilized his troops and ordered: "The fire in the camp is too big and we can't control the food. Fight out and we will defeat the enemies outside the camp."
After giving the order, Li Yuan led his army to fight out.
Li Yuan was filled with doubts in his heart.
The location of the granary is kept secret from the outside world, except for Li Shimin, Qin Qiong, Wang Can, Li Shentong and other major military generals, and no information about the granary has been leaked.
Unexpectedly, the granary was attacked.
This is strange.
Li Yuan's face was full of confusion, but now was no longer the time to ponder the leakage of the granary's location. He had to mobilize his troops to defeat the invading enemy.
The army rushed out of the camp and attacked on both sides.
At this moment, Huang Zhong led his army to attack.
"kill!"
"Make great achievements, today, kill!"
Huang Zhong gave an order loudly.
Under Huang Zhong's order, all the soldiers of the Shu Army rushed into the battlefield in a mighty manner. Huang Zhong took the lead and rushed to the entrance of the camp first, slashing his sword to kill every Tang soldier.
When the two sides clashed, they fought together.
Huang Zhong was like a pointed cone, constantly pushing forward, no one could stop him wherever he passed.
At this time, the soldiers on both sides of the fire defense had begun to encircle them, and they fought back from both sides to block the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who had rushed out of the camp. The three-party encirclement made it impossible for the soldiers under Li Yuan's command to rush out, even if they did.
, that was immediately beheaded.
Wang Can was also in the army. When he was killing the enemy, he kept paying attention to the movements of the Tang Dynasty.
When he saw Li Yuan, he went straight to kill Li Yuan.
Wang Can relied on his fists to rush forward with domineering force. Wherever his fists passed, soldiers flew out one by one, vomiting blood and fell to the ground. The other soldiers also kept falling. There was no one who could stop Wang Can. No one could stop him.
It's a combined enemy.
After a while, Wang Can arrived in front of Li Yuan.
Li Yuan is a member of the Li royal family and a relative of the royal family. He has met Wang Can before. As soon as he saw Wang Can, Li Yuan's eyes widened and he said loudly: "Li Duan, you?"
At this moment, Li Yuan was shocked inside.
Li Duan actually betrayed.
Li Duan got involved with the Shu army.
Li Yuan originally wondered why the location of the granary was exposed, but now he finally understood that it was because of Li Duan that the granary was exposed.
When Li Yuan just spoke, Wang Can was already in front of Li Yuan. He raised his fist and smashed it out.
He said nothing.
Just kill enemies.
Li Yuan knew that Li Shentong had been defeated by Wang Can, and knew that Wang Can was highly skilled in martial arts. He did not dare to resist head-on, so he quickly blocked with his knife. When the blade of the knife collided with Wang Can's fist, a loud noise was heard.
, the weapon in Li Yuan's hand was knocked out immediately. The hand holding the sword in Li Yuan's mouth was torn apart, and the palm of his hand was in pain.
Wang Can's fist is still moving forward inexorably.
"boom!"
The fist hit Li Yuan's chest, and with one punch, Li Yuan's body-protecting Qi was shattered, and it hit the chest hard.
Li Yuan screamed and felt countless power bombarding his heart.
Blood rushed up in one breath.
"puff!"
Li Yuan opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. There was blood-colored flesh foam in the blood, which was extremely shocking.
He covered his heart and his face gradually turned pale.
The look in his eyes gradually dimmed.
Li Yuan took advantage of the fact that there was still a trace of consciousness in his mind, took a breath, and said loudly: "Li Duan, why, why..."
"Because I am Wang Can!"
Wang Can replied loudly, and his fists moved forward again.
When Li Yuan heard Wang Can's answer, there seemed to be thunder in his mind, and he froze on the spot.
Li Duan is Wang Can!
Li Duan turned out to be Wang Can.
Li Yuan smiled sadly. He didn't expect that Li Duan, whom Li Shimin valued most, and who had placed all his hopes on him, was actually the former emperor of Shu. How ironic!
"boom!!"
Wang Can's fist hit Li Yuan's chest again.
Li Yuan screamed, and his burly body flew upside down like a kite with its string broken. When Li Yuan's body passed through the air, blood sprayed out, and the dim look in his eyes was already complete.
Sadly, there is no trace of brilliance anymore.
Wang Can's two punches shattered his life.
"boom!"
Li Yuan's body fell to the ground. The body that had already lost its breath twitched twice reflexively, and then lost any breath.
After Wang Can killed Li Yuan, he led his troops to continue the charge.
Originally under Huang Zhong's attack, the defense of the Tang Dynasty soldiers was unable to withstand it. They were retreating steadily, unable to withstand the Shu army's offensive, and they all began to retreat into the camp.
Now that Li Yuan was killed, his morale was even lower and he no longer had the strength to fight.
The Tang Dynasty was defeated like a mountain.
As the sea of fire in the rear gradually spread, the fire spread and burned, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who retreated into the camp began to fall into the sea of fire and found it difficult to escape.
Countless people were burned by the heat wave.
Countless people have no choice but to retreat.
After Wang Can saw this scene, he no longer continued to cover up the killing, but ordered: "Those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
…
Shouts came and went from the Shu army.
Every soldier was shouting.
This sound echoed in the air, and when the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty heard the sound, they felt as if they were hearing the sound of nature. They could not withstand the attack, and now the Shu army surrendered one after another.
"I surrender, I am willing to surrender!"
"Do not kill me!"
"Let us out quickly, I am willing to surrender."
…
Every soldier on the Tang side began to shout for surrender. Many soldiers did not kneel down and surrender in the camp, because the fire was attacking the fire. If they stayed in the camp, it would mean falling into a sea of fire.
Huang Zhong saw this and ordered to retreat a hundred steps.
As these soldiers retreated, the soldiers from the Tang Dynasty were finally able to come out of the camp. They were no longer blocked in the camp. They left the camp one by one, stopped running, stopped fighting, and all knelt down in a swarm to surrender.
.
The fighting lasted for less than half an hour and ended completely.
This battle was won extremely easily.
After all, Li Yuan is dead.
If Li Yuan was still alive and could still lead the army in battle, the Tang army would not be so decadent.
Huang Zhong ordered a prisoner count, detained all the prisoners, and then carefully counted them. In this battle, nearly three thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were captured, and the number of casualties among the Shu soldiers under Wang Can was less than eight.
Hundreds of people.
This battle was a complete victory.
Huang Zhong stood next to Wang Can, with sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, Li Shimin's granary has been burned to the ground. Next, we can attack Li Shimin by force. But what should we do with these nearly three thousand prisoners?"
There are three thousand prisoners, which is not conducive to the journey.
Moreover, it is not convenient for fighting and killing.
After Wang Can thought for a while, he said: "It doesn't matter. Now, we are escorting these prisoners and walking northward from Mount Lu in a swagger. Our military camp is not far from Li Shimin's camp. Even if Li Shimin mobilizes troops to attack
We, we can resist for a period of time. During this period of time, Xia Houying led his army to kill us. What's more, Li Shimin's granary is lost and the morale of the army is unstable. Even if Li Shimin has a large army, he may not be able to defeat us."
"My lord is wise!"
When Huang Zhong heard this, he cupped his fists and praised him.
Wang Can ordered: "Rest for half an hour, and then we will immediately set off to the north."
"Here!"
Huang Zhong received the order and immediately ordered him to go down.
Half an hour later, the army began to march, starting from the Lushan line and walking north along the official road. At the beginning, because the sky was still gray, no sentry noticed it, but after dawn, Wang Can and Huang Zhong
The troops he led were still rushing behind Li Shimin when they began to be discovered by spies under Li Shimin.
When the news was reported to Li Shimin, the army led by Huang Zhong almost arrived at Li Shimin's camp.
Chinese army tent.
The expression on Li Shimin's face became extremely solemn.
His eyes were full of worry.
The loss of food and grass in the rear means that the tens of thousands of troops under his command have lost their food rations. Even though his army currently has more than half a month of food rations, this cannot solve the morale turmoil caused by the loss of the granary. (Unfinished)
