Yuchi Jingde led the army to observe outside Shisha Village for a while, and saw that the morale of Li Shimin's army was still there. Considering that Shisha Village was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and this counter-ambush battle was mainly for field operations, there was no
They brought siege equipment, so they finally withdrew to Hehe County, Shanggu County.
Li Shimin stood at the top of the city, his expression gloomy to the extreme, with deep reluctance and hatred, watching the Far Eastern Army leave.
At this point, the ambush and counter-ambush battle secretly planned by Li Jing and Li Shimin's battle of wits and wits was finally over, or it could be said that the Far Eastern Army and the Li Family Army had temporarily come to an end on the eastern battlefield.
In this battle, the Li Army deployed as many as 90,000 troops and lost more than 50,000 people, including more than 30,000 killed in battle and more than 20,000 captured. Four generals including Li Guangming and Du Youchao died in the battle.
.
The Far East Army also suffered more than 13,000 casualties in this battle, of which more than 7,000 were killed, more than 4,000 were slightly injured, and more than 1,000 were seriously injured. They lost their combat effectiveness and are still undergoing intensive treatment.
In addition, Li Shimin's general Mao Haizhong led 10,000 cavalry and has yet to be seen. The spies sent by Li Shimin reported to Li Shimin that Mao Haizhong saw the strength of the Far East Army at that time, and secretly ordered his confidants to immediately attack and kill more than 100 people who had objections to Mao Haizhong.
He was named Li Shimin's confidant, and then led his men to evacuate in advance without fighting.
Li Shimin knew that Mao Haizhong knew he had made a fatal mistake, so he would definitely not dare to come back, and he might kidnap nearly 10,000 cavalrymen and turn them into bandits, or even surrender directly to the Far Eastern Army.
Li Shimin thought for a moment, and immediately sent people to arrest all Mao Haizhong's family members and relatives in Hedong.
After the spies found out the whereabouts of Mao Haizhong and his party, Li Shimin led 500 light cavalry to quietly leave Shishazhai overnight and blocked the 10,000 cavalry led by Mao Haizhong in a valley.
Mao Haizhong knew that Li Shimin would not spare him, and seeing that Li Shimin only brought 500 cavalry, he wanted to lead people to kill Li Shimin. It was just a matter of a few words from Li Shimin, and most of the 10,000 cavalry who followed Mao Haizhong immediately turned against him and returned.
He came into the arms of Li Shimin and killed more than a thousand of Mao Haizhong's direct descendants.
Li Shimin did not kill Mao Haizhong immediately, but left Mao Haizhong to talk with him in depth.
Mao Haizhong knew that he would die, so he did not salute Li Shimin and shouted loudly: "Second Young Master, please kill me!"
Li Shimin obviously hated Mao Haizhong, but now his face was calm, even with a smile, but his words were extremely cold: "I am going to follow Wang Junlin's example and cut you into pieces. In addition, your
I have sent people to arrest your family and clan members, and I plan to sell your wife and daughter to the most despicable brothel, and kill all your two sons and other clan members."
Mao Haizhong's face was already pale, trembling, his mouth was hard, and his mouth suddenly disappeared. He directly fluttered his kneeling against Li Shimin, banging in the sound of Li Shimin, hitting his forehead, and the flesh was blurred.
"Second Young Master, I am not a human being. I am unfaithful and unjust. I am a beast. You can do whatever you want to me! Please let my family and tribe go!"
"Please, Second Young Master, I..."
Before Mao Haizhong could finish his plea for mercy, Li Shimin interrupted him and said: "I can let your family and tribe go, or even not kill you. But you have to listen to me and do whatever I ask you to do.
Just do whatever you want."
"Thank you so much, Second Young Master. Thank you so much, Second Young Master." Mao Haizhong was immediately overjoyed. He kowtowed to Li Shimin again and loudly said: "Second Young Master, please tell me, I am now Second Young Master and a dog. I will do whatever Young Master asks me to do."
What to do."
"Very good." Li Shimin was very satisfied with Mao Haizhong's reaction, "What I asked you to do is actually very simple."
After a pause, Li Shimin said quietly: "I just want you to join the Far Eastern Army."
Mao Haizhong was startled for a moment, then kowtowed quickly and said with a horrified look on his face: "Second Young Master, the villain is wrong. The villain is a beast. The villain will never surrender to the Far Eastern Army..."
"Don't be impatient. Wait until I finish what I'm saying." Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I want you to join the Far Eastern Army, and you can lead thousands of remaining soldiers there."

"General, Mao Haizhong led more than 2,000 remaining soldiers to flee to us after Li Shimin sent people to kill him, and expressed his intention to surrender to us." In Hehe County, in the Far East Army camp, spies asked Yuchi Jingde and Lu Han,
Guan Xiaotong and Li Jing reported.
"Hey! Speaking of which, Li Shimin has been cautious enough. Yesterday
In that case, Mao Haizhong was sent to lead 10,000 elite troops as a back-up force. If Mao Haitao had led people to stop him for a while, Li Shimin would have led the main force to retreat calmly." Lu Han said with a sneer.
Guan Xiaotong also answered: "Who says it's not the case! This Mao Haitao is our great hero."
Yuchi Jingde said with a look of disgust: "I hate these disloyal and unjust villains the most. I kill every one of them on sight, and this Mao Haizhong dares to take the initiative to send them to my door."
"So, I suggest that Mao Haizhong be killed, along with the more than two thousand soldiers he brought." Li Jing said quietly.
The whole place suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde, Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong, their eyes flickering with thought, but their brows were furrowed with doubts on their faces.
In any case, with Mao Haitao's current situation, it is normal to surrender to the Far East Army, but obviously Li Jing did not think so, and even suspected that there was something wrong with Mao Haizhong.
Since Li Jing planned and led them to successfully lure Li Shimin out of Shisha Village, and fought a beautiful counter-ambush battle, winning the biggest victory on the East Road since the war with Li Jiajun, Yuchi Jingde, Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong
The three battalion commanders of the Far East Army had a great change in their views on Li Jing, and they truly recognized Li Jing's identity as the military advisor of the East Road Army.
Subsequently, he paid more attention to Li Jing's words.
Therefore, Li Jing's words immediately made them think a lot.
"Commander Li suspects that this Mao Haizhong came to surrender to us on Li Shimin's order?" Guan Xiaotong asked with a frown. He had too many questions.
Li Jing nodded and said: "Yes, I do suspect that there is something wrong with Mao Haizhong."
"That's not true! Could it be that Li Shimin deliberately let Mao Haizhong flee in order to pretend to surrender to us now and have such an internal agent?" Lu Han said with some doubts: "You must know that because of Mao Haizhong's fleeing, Li Shimin's losses are not small. Besides,
If he had known in advance that we would have counter-ambush troops, he would not have fallen into our ambush. In short, this does not make sense!"
Yuchi Jingde said nothing, but it was clear from his expression that he thought so.
Li Jing shook his head and said: "Of course Li Shimin didn't know that beforehand, but since Mao Haitao was blocked by Li Shimin's people and was able to escape, and was able to lead more than two thousand people to escape, there is a problem."
"Hey!" Yuchi Jingde said with a ferocious murderous intent, "Just now I was thinking that the other party was surrendering, so I couldn't kill Mao Haizhong, a disloyal and unjust villain. Now it's okay. Since he is pretending to surrender, Then kill him!"
However, after Li Jing thought for a while, he suddenly said: "It is better to keep this Mao Haizhong, maybe he can be used later."
Yuchi Jingde was in charge of Xiaotong. Lu Han's eyes suddenly lit up. Yuchi Jingde blinked and said: "Using Mao Haizhong, you can play tricks and so on."

To Wang Junlin, Shen Guoer was more than just a capable subordinate as the commander of the Military Intelligence Bureau, she was also a relative of Wang Junlin.
Therefore, since Shen Guoer was kidnapped by the No. 1 Killer King half a month ago, Wang Junlin used his flying eagle to summon Nie Xiaoyu, who was in charge of Fanyang County.
Nie Xiaoyu spent five days traveling all the way across the counties of Hedong and arrived near Shuozhou, and then spent another six days traveling nearly a thousand miles. With the full cooperation of the terrifying detective system such as the Military Intelligence Bureau, Xiaoyu Theater, and the Wulin Guild, Next, Nie Xiaoyu finally discovered traces or signals of the contemporary number one killer king in a small town in Changzhi County, Hedong.
After catching the signal from Killer King No. 1, Nie Xiaoyu chased her for nearly ten days and caught up with Killer King No. 1 three times. However, Killer King No. 1 obviously did not want to fight her with all his strength. Every time he would After Nie Xiaoyu repelled him, he floated away with his speed and weird movement skills that were even faster than Nie Xiaoyu's.
Fortunately, the signal from Killer King No. 1 has not disappeared from Nie Xiaoyu's senses.
To be honest, when Nie Xiaoyu was brought out of the mysterious cave by Wang Junlin fifteen years ago, although Nie Xiaoyu was magical, she was no match for the number one killer king who had been in this world for hundreds of years. , and even Wang Junlin and Wang Junlin were almost assassinated several times by the No. 1 Killer King, which was very embarrassing.
But after fifteen years of growth and preparation, Nie Xiaoyu can now fight head-on with the King of Killers No. 1 without losing. She even used the vast resources of the Far Eastern Army to produce many good things for Wang Junlin. Small black key, made of purple wire
vest, as well as the sword in Nie Xiaoyu's hand and the heavy sniper rifle that was built but never had the chance to be used.
Unknowingly, Nie Xiaoyu followed the signal captured by Killer King No. 1 and came to the southern part of Changzhi County.
That night, Nie Xiaoyu sat on a hilltop, looking motionless at the half moon hanging in the sky. There was a faint moonlight on her body.
Four or five miles away to the west is a deserted village consisting of more than fifty shabby houses. It was destroyed by a group of bandits more than a year ago, and it is full of desolation and loneliness.
Suddenly, Nie Xiaoyu sensed that Killer King No. 1 was moving again, so he immediately stood up and left the top of the mountain, heading down the mountain.
Nie Xiaoyu stepped on the path that was overgrown with weeds and led to the deserted village, and headed east.
Just as he was about to leave the path, Nie Xiaoyu suddenly felt something. He looked at a big tree beside the path. The trunk of the big tree was about ten feet above the ground. There was something hanging on the top of the tree.
It was a hairpin, which was Shen Guoer's personal belongings.
Nie Xiaoyu took a look and saw that her legs and knees were not bent, so he jumped up more than ten feet from the ground strangely, and took down the things on the treetops at a glance, but he did not take them at the last moment.
Instead, he fell back to the ground empty-handed.
Moreover, at the moment of landing, Nie Xiaoyu was like an arrow from the string, ejected at an extremely fast speed, far away from here, and came to a distance of fifteen feet.
She took a careful look at the hairpin and the big tree, then picked up a stone from the ground and flicked it, and the stone shot out like a bullet, hitting the hairpin accurately.
"Bang!" The hairpin was knocked off by the stone, but the moment the hairpin fell from the treetop, the whole tree exploded.
Amidst the loud noise, the tree was blown into pieces, and the hairpin had long since disappeared. A large crater with a diameter of three to four meters was blasted in the center of the tree.
Nie Xiaoyu glanced at the big pit and continued on his way expressionlessly.
Not long after, she followed the induction signal and entered the deserted village along the path.
Most of the houses in the village are dilapidated and unfit for human habitation. They are only suitable for wild vines and fox rats to occupy. Only a few houses are still intact. There is a plaque at the entrance to the village with the words "Zhu Xi Village" written on it.
It can be seen that the people in this village originally lived a relatively prosperous life. Looking carefully at some traces, there should be people living in the village a year or two ago, but now it is deserted. Winds carrying sand and dust are blowing, and even more
The village seemed extremely desolate.
Nie Xiaoyu looked around at the terrain and found that the village was located between two mountains. It was like a natural entrance and exit, and it was the passage between north and south within thirty or forty miles.
It is conceivable that in the heyday of the village, Zhuxi Village must have been a place for business travelers. It should have been quite prosperous, but now it has become an abandoned village like a ghost land.
The houses at the southern end of the village all collapsed, and the ruined walls and tiles were scorched black, showing signs of being burned by fire.
Because he sensed that Killer King No. 1 was only moving at an ordinary walking speed, Nie Xiaoyu did not rush to pursue him. Instead, he searched house by house, but found nothing. There was only a relatively complete house in the middle of the village. It was discovered that someone had been there recently.
The traces left behind clearly include fire embers and crumbs of dry food. Although Killer King No. 1 does not need to eat or light a fire to keep warm, the heavy fruits he carries do need it!
Because Killer King No. 1 interfered in some way, Nie Xiaoyu could only sense the general direction of the opponent, but could not find the opponent's specific location.
When she walked from the north end of the village all the way to the south, she had searched all parts of the village without even looking, but she still didn't find Shen Guoer and the No. 1 Killer King.
At this moment, she saw a woman standing with her back to her at the entrance to the village.
Under the moonlight, Nie Xiaoyu immediately recognized that it was Shen Guoer.
"Guo'er." Nie Xiaoyu shouted with light flashing in his eyes.
When Shen Guo'er heard the voice, she turned around and looked at Nie Xiaoyu, with tears streaming down her face, as if she was aggrieved as a child: "Master, you are here to see Guo'er."
Shen Guoer ran towards Nie Xiaoyu while crying.
Nie Xiaoyu suddenly stopped, the light in his eyes flashed violently, and then his body backed up and started running as fast as possible.
"Master, wait for me..." Shen Guoer cried and quickly chased after him.
Nie Xiaoyu, however, just ran backwards while staring at Shen Guoer, the light in her eyes flashed sharply, but she never spoke.
