Live History Broadcast: Opening Ceremony Spoilers - Our Ancestor Was Enraged

Chapter 711 I am the King of Qin, come and fight me!

"In response, the Tang army held a pre-battle meeting. Whether to leave or stay, the two groups held opposing opinions. In short, the Prince of Qin felt that the opportunity was too good to miss. If they could get rid of the old king, they could get rid of Dou Jiande."

"Therefore, Li Shimin led 3,500 elite soldiers to Hulao Pass, while Li Yuanji was left to guard the city and assist Qu Tutong."

"Three thousand five against Dou Jiande's combined army, which was said to be three hundred thousand, is something that most people wouldn't even dare to imagine."

The crowd: Only three thousand five?!

"After that, Dou Gui led troops from Ba and Shu to assist the King of Qin in attacking Wang Shichong."

"The two Fengs were promoted to Minister of the Imperial Secretariat of Yizhou, while Dou Gui was reassigned by Li to be the Left Minister of the Imperial Secretariat of Yizhou. In short, the King of Qin's troops have arrived!"

"When the King of Qin set off with his three thousand five men, the old king stood on the city wall of Luoyang and watched, wondering what these people were up to. With so few men, his army could crush them."

"Upon entering Hulao Pass, the King of Qin dispatched five hundred of his men, with Li Ji, Cheng Zhijie, and Qin Shubao leading ambushes along the short distance from where he set out to Dou Jiande's camp."

"He led four cavalrymen, including Yuchi Gong, and wandered to within three miles of Lao Dou's camp, where they encountered the enemy's guerrillas."

"I'm a little curious about what Yuchi Gong was feeling at the time, because before setting off, they agreed to retreat as soon as they saw each other. Who would have thought that the King of Qin would do something so outrageous, shouting: 'I am the King of Qin,' and even shooting an arrow at the other side."

Erfeng: The King of Qin is here! Come and arrest me!

Yuchi Gong: ...6...

"Then they called for reinforcements, five or six thousand cavalry to come after us. Those four cavalrymen were on their toes. No, boss, you didn't tell me it was this kind of reconnaissance!"

"Li Shimin had the awareness of a boss. He patted his chest and said that he and Yuchi Gong would cover the rear, and you guys run first."

"The future general and the emperor covered the rear, and the two of them continued to roam around on the way back. Whenever the pursuers were about to catch up, they would draw their bows and shoot them. In any case, every time they shot one, one would die. It didn't seem like they were covering the rear, but rather like they were playing with the pursuers."

"Once they were lured into the encirclement that Erfeng had set up in advance, those few people rushed out, and Dou Jiande's pursuers were immediately overwhelmed. The Tang army beheaded more than three hundred people and captured Yin Qiu and Shi Zan."

Yin Qiu, Shi Zan: It was so sudden... how did they get arrested?!

"Friendly reminder: This behavior is somewhat dangerous. Don't imitate it unless you are a military genius with exceptional talent!"

The person who heard this "thoughtful" reminder thought to themselves: Who would follow the Qin King's trick if there's nothing wrong with it?

Is this something an average person could learn?!

Junior, aren't you overestimating us?

Those who were filled with enthusiasm and eager to try it out couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, King Qin is awesome!"

So what if there was the Xuanwu Incident? They've already endured all the hardships they were supposed to endure and fought all the battles they were supposed to fight!

As the emperor, Li was supposed to be stationed in the rear; how could he have such a good thing!

"After all this commotion, the morale of the Tang army, who wanted to go home, instantly soared. Look at their leader! He used light cavalry to scout, and he still managed to kill hundreds of enemy soldiers and capture enemy generals. King Qin is mighty!"

"At the same time, Erfeng also wrote a letter to Dou Jiande, stabbing him in the heart... Old Wang is about to be finished. Listen to him, take your soldiers, your food, and your money to fight and wear me down."

"Old Dou, are you out of your mind! Look at the state of your several thousand soldiers against my five hundred!"

"Erfeng's letter is written with such domineering yet cruel words, you can't tell at all that she only has a little over three thousand soldiers."

Dou Jiande: Young people, don't be so young and impetuous!
