Chapter 793 [Qianjun]

The civil and military forces gathered in the big tent, Lin Nan sat in the top position, and after looking around, he saw that all the people had arrived, so he said loudly: "I have received a secret report yesterday, the turmoil of the Goguryeo people is indeed a trap, Rao is so, and the internal situation of Goguryeo is not stable, and many people have succumbed to the tiger power of the king of Goguryeo, and they dare not speak out. To this end, I have thought of a foolproof strategy, and I hope that everyone here will work together to conquer the domestic city in one fell swoop! ”

"No!" The crowd replied in unison.

"Lord Huqiutai, please lead Fuyu's 20,000 warriors to go around behind Marudu Mountain, completely block all exits from behind Marudu Mountain, no matter who you meet, as long as it is a Goguryeo, you will be killed!" Lin Nan immediately commanded.

Niujia Huqiutai of Fuyu Kingdom was ordered by Fuyu Wangwei Qiutai to support Linnan's crusade against Goguryeo with an army of 20,000 troops, and accepted Linnan's dispatch. At this time, when Hu Qiutai heard Lin Nan's order, he immediately agreed, and bowed to Lin Nan, and then went out of the camp with more than a dozen dogs under his command and began to dispatch the troops of the rest of the people.

After Lin Nan saw that Hu Qiutai led the people of Fu Yuguo away, he shouted the names of a series of generals: "Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Wei Yan, Chu Yan, Chen Dao, Hu Yu, Wen Ping, Xiahou Lan......"

"The last general!" The eight people who were shouted stood up together and answered at the same time.

"Each of you shall gather your own troops and horses, and march quickly to the inner city, and dig a deep ditch a mile outside the city wall, and build an earthen wall. In addition, behind the deep ditch were set up antlers, horses and other obstacles, and no one was allowed to enter the encirclement without my order. ”

The eight people said "promise" together, and then went out of the big tent, and each ordered the soldiers and horses of the headquarters. Carried out Lin Nan's order and went.

The big tent was suddenly empty, and there were only ten people, including Xu You, Sima Lang, Ouyang Yinying, Bian Xi, Wang Wenjun, Bai Yu, Shi Jie, Li Yulin, Yu Poison, and Sun Qing.

After Lin Nan finished giving the order, he lowered his head, observingly observing the city defense map spread out in front of him, and did not speak.

The tent suddenly became unusually silent, and everyone present could hear each other's breathing.

"My lord. With such a deep ditch and high fortress, does the lord want to besiege the city? Xu You never understood why Lin Nan did this, if he attacked the domestic city, he would attack day and night, and he would definitely be able to capture it in less than three days, but when he saw that Lin Nan was besieging him, he asked puzzledly.

Lin Nan nodded and said softly: "The domestic city is a fortified city, and our army did not bring siege equipment this time. Even the horses were lost in the city of Susheng bones, and if they forcibly attacked the inner city, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. If you don't take defense as an attack, within half a month, you will definitely be able to make the Goguryeo people take the initiative to open the city and surrender. ”

Xu You smiled dumbly, as if he was laughing at Lin Nan's words, and then said: "Lord, the domestic city is the capital of the Goguryeo people. It is also an important place for money and grain in the entire Goguryeo, and there must be plenty of grain in the city. If our army takes the siege. I'm afraid that half a year may not be able to capture this city. There are a lot of trees in this vicinity, as long as they are cut down to make siege equipment, the subordinates think that the soldiers are fast, and now our army is 40,000, and the Goguryeo people are only 20,000. A strong assault should be taken. The walls of the inner city are circular, which is very advantageous for us, and we will first send two troops and horses to make a feint attack, so as to make the enemy in the city exhausted. When the enemy is tired, our main army will concentrate a little more together and carry out a fierce attack, and within three days, we will definitely be able to capture this city. ”

Lin Nan saw that Xu You had different opinions, and as far as Xu You's opinion was concerned, it was indeed a good strategy to attack the city. But since he learned the true situation of Yiimo and the Goguryeo people last night, he changed his mind and wanted to fight a psychological war against the Goguryeo people, so that the Goguryeo people would take the initiative to surrender under pressure.

He smiled and said lightly: "The art of war has a cloud: 'go to the army to plan, then to fight, then to attack the army, and then to attack the city', until the last resort, you can't attack the city casually." After all, after a siege battle, many soldiers will die because of it. Don't forget that the Goguryeo people are very brave, they are good at archery, and they have strong cities to bear, and if they attack it, they will only cause our army to suffer heavy casualties. I already have operational arrangements to deal with the Goguryeo people, and I can surrender them without a fight. ”

Xu You's resourcefulness is not bad, but he is a little anxious for quick success, as soon as he heard Lin Nan say that there is a way to surrender without a fight, he hurriedly said: "My subordinates would like to hear the details......

Lin Nan smiled, closed the map in front of him, and said slowly: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, and when it comes to tomorrow, the military advisor will naturally know." ”

Xu You saw that Lin Nan had sold a pass, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he was helpless, besides, he had already taken all his family to Jicheng, and he planned to follow Lin Nan all the time, after all, in the face of such a smart master, he couldn't say the wrong word, let alone be half-hearted.

"Strategist, rest assured, after tomorrow, there will be a time for you to make meritorious contributions." Lin Nan had long seen that Xu You had a problem with quick success, but since he dared to accept Xu You as his advisor, he had a way to deal with Xu You, sometimes playing a mallet and giving a jelly bean, this method is very suitable for managing Xu You's character.

Xu You nodded silently, stopped talking, and stood there motionless.

"Bian Xi, you have scattered all the two hundred scouts under you, and set up scouts at intervals to be responsible for relaying information back and forth between Huang Zhong and the other eight generals." Lin Nan stood up, his kind eyes became a little fierce, and he said loudly.

Bian Xi said "promise" and left the camp.

"Yu Poison, Sun Qing, Bai Yu, Shi Jie, Li Yulin, you lead the remaining 4,000 Chinese troops to be responsible for demolishing and rebuilding the camp, advancing the camp thirteen miles, and camping under the nose of the domestic city. Xu You, Sima Lang, Wang Wenjun, Ouyang Yinying, the four of you follow me, and you can dispatch at any time. ”

"No!"

The 40,000 troops moved separately, and Huqiutai began to make a detour with 20,000 soldiers from Yu Guo, and they divided their troops into two routes, one directly from the foot of Mount Maruto, and the other by boat, one to the left and the other to the right, and began to implement the plan of encircling Mount Marudu.

Huang Zhong, Xu Huang, Wei Yan, Hu Yu, Chu Yan, Chen Dao, Wen Ping, and Xiahou Lan each led 2,000 men and began to implement Lin Nan's strategy of deep ditch and high fortress. Eight soldiers and horses poured into the domestic city one by one. Weapons were turned into tools, and 1,000 men were sent to defend each part with crossbows, while the other 1,000 men began to dig deep ditches and build earthen walls, and began a big move in full swing.

……

"You beast! Get on my knees! "In the royal palace of the inner city, Pego sat on the throne of the great king. In front of the four ancient Hina and Guilou royal families of the Juannu Ministry, the Absolute Slave Ministry, the Shunnu Ministry, and the Gulou Ministry, he viciously pointed at Yiyimo who was standing in the center of the main hall and shouted with extremely angry words.

Yi Yimo faced Bogu's rage, the whole person seemed very indifferent, his face did not change, a trace of disdain rose on his cold face, and he said angrily: "Why should I kneel?" I'm not wrong! I did this for the sake of our Goguryeo. ”

Bogu was already blowing his beard angrily and glaring, and roared angrily: "You coward! The enemy is approaching the city. Instead of helping our own people, you let the enemy go. Bian Xi came to this city once two years ago, and he was very familiar with the qiē in the city, and you let him go, this is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, do you dare to say that there is nothing wrong? ”

Yiyimo's waist has always been straight, and he said loudly: "I said that I did this for the sake of us Goguryeo people. If the father really killed Bian Xi, or imprisoned him. It will inevitably provoke Lin Nan's revenge. Lin Nan is not easy to mess with, hundreds of thousands of Wuhuan people who are crisscrossing outside the fortress have surrendered to him, not to mention that we Goguryeo people are less than 100,000? If my father had always maintained friendly contacts with Lin Nan and did not increase troops near Xicheng Wubao, trying to take advantage of Lin Nan's army not intending to seize Liaodong, how could the 30,000 warriors become a pile of bones? ”

"You...... You beast. Where is your turn to teach me? You have a sentence of Lin Nan on the left and a sentence of Lin Nan on the right, what benefits did Lin Nan give you? We Goguryeo people have been like this for generations, if it wasn't for the blood spilled on the battlefield by our ancestors, how could there be today's Goguryeo? Ladies and gentlemen. But you say, Iyimo's actions have violated the interests of his country, how do you think he should be convicted? ”

The ancient Hina Kadu present looked at each other, and the four of them were silent, but their hearts were full of anger towards Bogu.

"Brother Wang! Iyimo's actions have completely violated the rules of survival as a Goguryeo, and I ask that Iyimo be executed immediately as an example! "The person who spoke was the great Ka Zhongyu of the Gui Lou tribe, and he was also the younger brother of Bogu.

Bogu was furious, but he didn't want Yimo to die, as his only son, all he could do was lock Yimo up for the time being. When he heard Zhong Yu's words, he was shocked in his heart, and secretly thought: "You have such a vicious heart, let me kill Yiyimo, and when I die, you can inherit the throne, don't you think." ”

The Goguryeo people had an unwritten rule that the heir to the throne was not necessarily the eldest son, but must be the royal concubine, and if the king did not have a son, it would be inherited by the king's younger brother, and in short, it could not be passed on to someone else.

Nakaha's ambition was revealed, and the rest of the Gu Hina immediately objected, believing that Yi Mo's crime was not to death, and they pleaded for mercy. Zhong Yu insisted on putting Yi Yimo to death, and several people quarreled in the main hall.

"Newspaper-" A person ran into the main hall and said loudly, "King Qiqi, Han Jun...... A large number of Han troops appeared outside the city. ”

The quarrel ceased instantly, and Bogu stood up and shouted to the warriors standing outside the hall: "Come, put Yimo in custody for the time being, and do not let him take half a step out of the door, and no one shall approach him without my orders." Ladies and gentlemen, please come with me to the city wall! ”

Bogu, Zhongyu, and all the Goguryeo princes and ministers such as Gu Hina Ga, Daega, Xiangzhi, and Ji Lu climbed the castle tower together, and everyone was extremely shocked when they saw the scene outside the city.

Outside the city in China, Han soldiers lined up with crossbows, forming a ring like the city wall, which stretched out along the city wall. Behind the crossbowmen of the Han army were the hot men, all stripped of their shirts and shirtless, armed with various blades to carry out digging work, and some soldiers had set up camp on the flat land two miles away.

"It's too rampant, the Han army doesn't take us Goguryeo people too seriously, I must give them a little color to see!" When Bergo saw this, he immediately became angry, he was also a brave warrior when he was young, but since he inherited the throne, he has never been on the battlefield. Years of pampering have also made his body obese, but his aggressive heart is still alive.

"Yes, Brother Wang, you should send someone out to give those Han people a little color, so that they know that we Goguryeo people are not easy to bully." Zhong Yu echoed.

"Hmm. Well said! A trace of evil thought suddenly flashed in Bogu's eyes, and he said loudly, "Zhong Yu, you are the number one warrior of my Guilou Tribe, please lead a thousand cavalry out of the city and give them a little color!" ”

"What?" Zhong Yu was shocked and immediately shouted, "You let me go?" ”

Bogu said: "Is there anyone else named Zhong Yu?" ”

A trace of embarrassment immediately appeared on Zhong Yu's face, and he thought, "I was bent on putting Yiyi Mo to death just now, and this time Bogu is doing this to me. It must be taking revenge on me. No matter whether I can defeat the Han army or not, I can't go, with the character of Bogu, once I am defeated, there will be no way to live. The Han army was able to slaughter all the 30,000 troops of Baqi, Youju, and Ranren in the city of Susheng Bone without much effort, and even Baqi was not an opponent, how could my old bones withstand the toss? ”

"Zhong Yu!" Seeing that Zhong Yu didn't answer, Bo Gu said loudly. "Why don't you go quickly?"

Zhong Yu turned his head to look at the Gu Hina around him, and saw that they were all hanging up with a posture that had nothing to do with themselves. There's little hope either. When his gaze swept over Xiang Lu beside him, he picked up a trace of hope in his heart, and immediately said: "Brother Wang, my old illness has been committed recently, and I can't ride a horse, so I think I will let Lord Lu lead the troops to battle." Yes, Lord Lu is the number one warrior in the whole of Goguryeo. Even Prince Baqi can't beat him, and it's best for him to go. ”

It was a military position in Goguryeo, a general who commanded the whole country, and only those who fought bravely and made many meritorious deeds were worthy of the position of Zhilu.

Bogu turned his head and glanced at Ma Qiang, who was facing Lu, and saw Ma Qiang's grim face. He asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Ma Qiang didn't even look at the Han army outside the city, and immediately replied: "Don't worry, king, I only need five hundred cavalry to make the Han army flee in all directions." ”

Bogu said: "Baqi died at the hands of this group of Han soldiers, you must be careful, five hundred is too little, I will give you a thousand." Also, let Zhong Yu lead two thousand archers to cover you. ”

"Brother Wang, this ...... Isn't that good? Zhong Yu said.

Bogu sneered: "You can't ride a horse, can't you still walk?" Can't even use your hands? ”

Zhong Yu couldn't defend anymore, and immediately said, "Okay, I'll just go." ”

Ma Qiang and Zhong Yu went down to the city tower, and after ordering the soldiers and horses, they gathered at the city gate. Ma Qiang did not wait for Zhong Yu, and after ordering someone to open the city gate, he led a thousand cavalry to gallop out of the city, while Zhong Yu led two thousand archers to follow.

On the flat ground outside the city, five hundred meters from the city wall, Han soldiers stood by crossbows and swords hanging from their waists, while behind them were men who were digging.

Hu Yu's subordinates were facing the gate of the domestic city, and he was directing his subordinates to work, when he suddenly saw the city gate being opened, and a group of cavalry emerged from the city, and he immediately shouted: "The enemy is out of the city, quickly prepare for battle!" ”

At the sound of the order, a thousand soldiers who were working climbed out of the ditch and gathered together with their weapons, while the 1,000 crossbowmen in front of them hid behind the antlers and the horses, and quickly moved away from the antlers and the horses, about fifty paces away.

At the same time, the scouts, who had already observed the movements of the Goguryeo people, quickly reported the news to Lin Nan, who had set up camp in the back.

Lin Nan had already taken precautions, and also guessed that the Goguryeo people would go out of the city to make trouble at any time, he had already arranged a plan, and when he saw the Goguryeo people rushing over, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "I'm worried that you won't come out, just in time, just in time, hahaha!" ”

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The drums of war were quickly beaten, and the dull beat of drums spread across the plains, beating the silence of this early morning.

I saw that many soldiers armed with bows and arrows and long standards emerged from all directions, Bai Yu, Shi Jie, Li Yulin, and Yu Poison each rushed to Hu Yu with five hundred infantry and went to support. In addition, Wen Ping and Chu Yan, who were adjacent to Hu Yu, quickly surrounded them from both wings with their subordinates, and soon the troops formed a "door" shape.

Ma Qiang didn't expect the Han army's adaptability to be so fast, and when he saw that the Han army was in front of him, he immediately restrained the horses under his seat and stopped all the cavalry. It stood in an open space 300 meters away from the Han army.

The two thousand archers led by Zhong Yu then arrived, and he walked straight to Ma Qiang's side. Seeing the formation of the Han army in front, it was obvious that it had already been defended, so he said to Ma Qiang: "The Han army has already been prepared, let's not go to death, it's important to go back to the city quickly." ”

Ma Qiang was never greedy for life and afraid of death, and heard Zhong Yu's words. Then he said angrily: "I want you back, this is the king's order, I must carry it out!" ”

Zhong Yu was not reluctant, he didn't want to die, so he ran behind.

Ma Qiang held a longbow in his hand, and rode under his crotch a fruit horse with strong weight-bearing endurance and short stature, which was a horse raised by the Goguryeo people, which was different from the tall horse shepherded by the people on the grassland. The cavalry behind him were all archers, and they were also dismounted in green chestnut fruit. He saw that the Han army had set up a position. He immediately shouted to the soldiers behind him: "You are the strongest warriors in the whole of Goguryeo, you were born to lick blood on the edge of the sword, and now the enemy is in front of you, rush forward with me, let them taste the power of our Goguryeo warriors!" ”

"No!" A thousand cavalry replied together.

At this time, Zhong Yu had already retreated to the city gate, and when Bo Gu on the city tower saw it, he immediately asked people to close the city gate and did not allow Zhong Yu to enter the city. Forcing Zhong Yu to fight. Zhong Yu had no choice but to run behind Ma Qiang's cavalry with two thousand archers.

Ma Qiang gave an order. He led a thousand cavalry archers to rush towards the Han army's position, and with their special bows, they beckoned the Han soldiers from the left flank.

The bow is the best bow and arrow of the Goguryeo people, and it is also the toughest bow and arrow, with a range of up to 400 paces, which is much farther than the short bows of the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu on the ordinary grassland.

Lin Nan stood on the watchtower that had just been built. Behind him, Xu You, Sima Lang, Wang Wenjun, and Ouyang Yinying looked at the entire battlefield together.

When Xu You saw the Goguryeo archers rushing over, he also had a trace of doubt in his heart, so he asked, "My lord, are you really not going to the front line to command the battle?" ”

Lin Nan nodded: "I have already settled on the general phalanx." How to meet the battle is the generals' business, at this time it is to exercise their ability to cooperate with each other and command the battle on the battlefield, only a thousand archers and two thousand archers are not enough, Hu Yu is a general, can fight all the way from Lelang County to Susheng Bone City, it shows that he is very capable, I have handed over the command of the front line to him, I should fully believe in his ability. ”

Xu You saw that Lin Nan was so relieved of his subordinates, so he said, "But ......"

"It's nothing good, but I say nothing, the military advisor will see how Hu Yu makes meritorious contributions." Lin Nan interrupted Xu You's words, "Oh, tomorrow it's time for the military division to play, and I will fully believe in the military division's ability." ”

Xu You heard the second half of the sentence, and still hadn't guessed what medicine was being sold in Lin Nan's gourd, and when he saw Lin Nan so relieved, he was no longer worried, and stood there looking at the battlefield in front of him with peace of mind.

Sima Lang and Ouyang Yinying didn't speak, and they didn't say as much, they just followed quietly.

Wang Wenjun frowned, worried about Hu Yu's situation, because he saw that it was Ma Qiang, the chief general of Goguryeo, who led the troops out, this murderous, cold-blooded and cruel Goguryeo people often came to harass when Lin Nan did not occupy Lelang County in the past, and burned and looted many times in Lelang County, so that the people of Lelang County were afraid when they heard Ma Qiang's name, and he was a devil who killed people without blinking. He was unconsciously worried about Hu Yu in his heart, and he didn't know that Hu Yu could resist Ma Qiang.

Lin Nan saw a trace of uneasiness on Wang Wenjun's face, and asked, "Are you worried about Hu Yu?" ”

Wang Wenjun said: "Ma Qiang is the first general of Goguryeo, commanding all the Wangcheng guards, his subordinates are the most brave warriors of Goguryeo riding on Guoxia horses and holding bows, and his subordinates can be said to be the most sophisticated in the entire Goguryeo, and his subordinates have never fought with Ma Qiang, and General Hu has not either, so his subordinates are a little worried." ”

"Ma Qiang? I seem to have heard Bian Xi talk about this person, is he really that tough? ”

Wang Wenjun nodded, and immediately replied: "It is indeed very strong, he is the one who conquered the Northern Wofu, the Eastern Wofu, and the expulsion of the rest of the people, just mentioning his name can make the people of the entire Liaodong dangerous themselves, and he is a big devil who kills people without blinking." ”

Lin Nan said with a smile: "Very good, Hu Yu is not bad, but he is also a generation of famous generals Zhong Liwu, I think when he led his troops to attack Goguryeo, he was already looking forward to the battle of Yu Maqiang." You don't have to worry so much, just watch well. I also want to see if Hu Yu can be qualified for the position of pioneer general without you by his side! ”

"No!" Wang Wenjun saw that Lin Nan valued Hu Yu very much, so he didn't say anything more, but felt happy and happy for Hu Yu.

The battle had begun, and Hu Yu had been authorized by Lin Nan. Responsible for commanding this battle, when he saw that the person who came was Ma Qiang, who the entire Dongyi was afraid of, his heart couldn't help but throb twice, and the expression on his face became wooden.

There were 6,000 Han infantry on display on the battlefield, Wen Ping and Chu Yan each brought 1,000 crossbowmen from the left and right wings to support, Hu Yu originally commanded the 2,000 subordinates of the headquarters, plus 2,000 people led by Bai Yu, Yu Poison, Shi Jie, and Li Yulin, and they merged into the shape of a gate. Unanimously hid behind the antlers and the horses, protecting the deep trenches that had not yet been dug successfully.

Hu Yu commanded the soldiers he trained in Lelang County, although they were not elite, but their strength was that they were all good at archery, each of them held a repeating crossbow in their hands, a large bow on their backs, and sabers and quivers hanging from their waists, among which there were five hundred pikemen.

I saw Ma Qiang rushing over with a thousand cavalry archers. Hu Yu immediately gave an order: "Wen Ping, Chu Yan, you all step down." Bai Yu, Yu Poison, Shi Jie, and Li Yulin held down the formation, and this person was handed over to me to clean up. ”

This was a typical battle of infantry against cavalry, and instead of feeling scared, Hu Yu felt more and more excited. After he gave the order, Wen Ping, who was on the left flank, immediately led his troops to retreat, and Chu Yan did not retreat back. The two armies were only in good standing, and viciously stood there watching.

"Brothers, it's time to show your lordship and show your courage, how the Goguryeo people bullied you, you should double down and let them pay it back." Hu Yu roared loudly. Boosting the morale of his subordinates, "The whole army is on alert!" ”

At the sound of the order, the two thousand soldiers were immediately transformed into a battle formation, and five hundred pikemen erected their spears behind the antlers, standing there like sharp awls. And five hundred of the soldiers who had been holding crossbows were replaced with bows and arrows, and they all drew their bows, mounted their arrows, and were ready to shoot. Five hundred crossbowmen were distributed behind the archers, and the other five hundred swordsmen also took the round rattan cards they were carrying from their backs and held them in their hands, guarding the pikemen in front of them one-on-one. The battle formation has been formed, just waiting for the cavalry led by Ma Qiang to attack, and Hu Yu's heart is also extremely excited.

Ma Qiang jogged forward with a thousand archers, originally rushed to the left flank, who knew that the left flank had automatically withdrawn, and retreated beyond the firing range, and the action of the right flank was the same, only a small battle formation stood out in the middle, and he could only beckon his subordinates to rush towards the center.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Almost at the same time, Hu Yu and Ma Qiang shouted these two words at the same time, and one after another feathered arrows flew into the air, covering half of the sky like locusts flying in the sky.

The big bow used by Hu Yu's subordinates is also a bow, and the range is the same as that of Ma Qiang's vicious archers, so when he and Ma Qiang saw each other enter the range, they shouted in unison.

"Puff, puff......" Pieces of arrows shot by the Goguryeo people fell down and landed in the middle of Hu Yu's troops, and there were 500 swordsmen holding rattan cards to protect them, and the 500 pikemen were not injured, only a few were slightly injured.

After the five hundred archers finished shooting the arrows, they immediately scattered to the two sides, detouring to the back from the left and right, and the crossbowmen behind directly filled the gap, and the soldiers took the crossbows and aimed at the approaching archers.

What people didn't expect was that more than 100 of Ma Qiang's archers were wounded by arrows but they were like no one, and they still followed Ma Qiang as they were, and at the same time pulled out their bows and arrows and shot a second wave of arrows. The second wave of arrows fired very fast, and this wave of arrows shot directly into the crossbowmen's formation, and then the entire cavalry team immediately split in two and ran back.

"Ah......h

A group of crossbowmen immediately fell in front of Hu Yu, losing about 200 people. He had wanted to wait for the other party to get closer, and then rush directly with the pikeman, but he thought that the other party would turn back halfway, and the speed of the horse was obviously more than twice as fast as when attacking.

"Damn, it's heartwarming, I'm really not used to not having horses!" Although Hu Yu commanded all the infantry, he himself liked to ride horses, and there were originally 500 cavalry in his troops, but when he fought all the way from Lelang County to Susheng Bone City. Most of the cavalry followed him and died, and the remaining horses were very few, plus the horses could not stand the turbulence on the water from the Susheng Bone City to the domestic city, so they could only leave all the horses in the Susheng Bone City.

The first confrontation between Hu Yu and Ma Qiang was completed, but for Lin Nan, who was standing on the watchtower and watching. It wasn't what he wanted to see.

Lin Nan's brows furrowed, seeing that Ma Qiang commanded the archers very quickly, and the cavalry team was very slow when attacking, but when it came to escape, the speed was abnormally fast. He knew that the infantry had always suffered a lot against cavalry since ancient times, and he didn't blame Hu Yu, after all, Hu Yu himself could come up with a battle formation where four arms cooperated with each other, which was really good, and it might be able to win against the attacking cavalry. But it was a bit of a disadvantage to deal with the archers who were good at guerrillas.

Hu Yu immediately asked the dead soldiers to be pulled down, and let the wounded soldiers also go off the battlefield, and roughly counted the number of people, but there were only 1,500 left.

Wen Ping, Chu Yan, Bai Yu, Yu Poison, Shi Jie, Li Yulin and others were all watching, and they all begged to join the war, but they were rejected by Hu Yu.

Hu Yu suffered a loss just now, and seeing that Ma Qiang was fighting guerrilla warfare with him, he simply stopped engaging in any battle formations. He summoned several of his subordinates to him, and immediately said, "The cavalry will rush over again in a while." You will rush with me, they have less than a thousand men left, and if we launch a fierce attack, we will definitely be able to disrupt the other side's layout. As I saw just now, this group of cavalry was highly trained, unlike the Goguryeo army we had seen before. They followed some experience, where the horses ran to start firing arrows, when to retreat, they didn't see Ma Qiang say a word at all, they had already agreed on it. Just mess it up. ”

Several military horses were all pulled up by Hu Yu, and they were not greedy for life and afraid of death, so they all nodded and agreed.

Hu Yu didn't talk much nonsense, and immediately let several military horses scatter and prepare to rush forward.

Ma Qiang returned to the city wall, he just tried his sword, really tested the strength of the Han army, and saw that although the Han army was numerous, it was stuck in the evolution of the infantry battle array, so he smiled and said: "The Han army is nothing more than this, see if I don't completely defeat them this time!" Lord Nakaha, please lead all the archers to cover me in the back, rush up together, and destroy the army in the center first. ”

Zhong Yu was very unhappy when he saw Ma Qiang's smugness, but after all, he was Ma Qiang, the number one warrior in Goguryeo, and the person who made the entire Dongyi frightened, no matter how unbalanced, he could only swallow his anger in his stomach. He only nodded, but did not answer.

Ma Qiang didn't care what Zhong Yu thought, he didn't need to care, he just needed to see the enemy's every move.

"Okay, do it again, this time you have to use all your strength to completely defeat the front of the Han army!"

"No!"

With Ma Qiang's order, the remaining more than 800 cavalry rushed forward together, but this time it was different from the last time, this time all the cavalry were sprinting with all their strength, and the horses under the seat also used all their strength, carrying the knights on horseback to charge the formation at the fastest speed.

Hu Yu frowned, and when he saw Ma Qiang's cavalry team rushing up, he smiled, took the rattan card from a soldier's hand, and said loudly: "The sword player is in front, the pikeman and crossbowman are in the middle, and the archer is behind, rush over together, and we must completely disrupt the enemy's formation!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Hu Yu held a steel knife and a rattan plaque in his hand, and the first one rushed forward, followed closely by the 1,500 soldiers behind him.

The simultaneous rush of both sides surprised the spectators, only to see that the archers under Ma Qiang shot the arrows in their hands early, but they were not equipped with sabers or spears and other melee weapons, and when they saw that the other party rushed up desperately, they could only quickly turn around and return.

Hu Yu's gaze was indeed very sharp, and he immediately had insight into Ma Qiang's combat methods, and he ran forward quickly, blocking the arrows with a rattan card, while shouting the words "kill".

Soon, before the archers behind could figure out what was going on, they were rammed by the Han army's infantry, and blood sprayed out of the Han soldiers' blades, and the Goguryeo fell off their horses one by one.

Hu Yu took the lead in taking down a horse, he didn't have the slightest worry about his subordinates behind him, how to fight him could be completely handed over to Jun Sima to command, they were all brothers with tacit understanding. What he has to do now is to chase after Ma Qiang and cut off Ma Qiang's head.

He rolled over and jumped on horseback, shouted "ride", and mixed with the Goguryeo archers, and retreated backwards with him.

Zhong Yu's archers had just caught up, and before they could figure out what was going on, they saw Ma Qiang retreating back with the cavalry in the middle of the road, retreating and releasing arrows at the same time. When all the cavalry disappeared in front of him, he saw the scene in front of him clearly, and it was actually a group of Han infantry who rushed up desperately. He saw that Ma Qiang had run away, and he had no confidence, so he immediately retreated without a fight, and in a hurry, he forgot the order to retreat, and only cared about his own escape.

The Goguryeo archers did not receive the order to retreat, but simply rushed forward, and soon got into a melee with the Han army's sword and brand soldiers. As soon as the archers, who were not good at close combat, touched these warriors with steel swords, they immediately fell into a disadvantage, and before they had time to draw their bows and arrows, their hands and feet were cut in two.

Hu Yu took the lead, carrying a steel knife everywhere he passed, suddenly he saw Zhong Yu passing not far away, saw Zhong Yu dressed very elegantly, so he hurried over, holding the steel knife, after a loud shout, he cut off Zhong Yu's head.

The soldiers of Goguryeo were already in a mess, and they were rushed by Hu Yu and his subordinates, and immediately fell into a disadvantage, and groups of archers raised their big bows to resist the swords and guns of the Han soldiers, and many big bows were cut in two by the Han soldiers.

In the camp of the Han army, Lin Nan looked at the scene, his frowning brows were also loosened, a faint smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and he praised: "Hu Ciyue, the real general!" ”

Wen Ping, Chu Yan, Yu Poison, Bai Yu, Shi Jie, and Li Yulin all maintained their own formations, and saw Hu Yu and his subordinates clashing back and forth among the Goguryeo soldiers, and blood gushed everywhere the blade passed, and many strong Goguryeo warriors came to block it, but their heads were cut off one by one by Hu Yu's knife.

Ma Qiang had already returned to the city gate, and when he turned the horse's head, he saw Hu Yu riding a fruit and dismounting and holding a steel knife in the panicked camp, and Zhong Yu's head was still tied to the horse, which surprised him, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "There is such a person in the Han army?" ”

"Who is that guy with a scar on his face?" Ma Qiang pointed at Hu Yu and immediately asked.

Someone immediately replied: "Qi Yu is Lord Lu, he is Hu Yu, the Taishou of Lelang County." ”

"Is that him?" Ma Qiang shook his spirit, clenched the big bow in his hand, took out three arrows casually, put them on the bowstring, aimed at Hu Yu who was in the melee, and roared angrily, "Hu Yu, you suffer death, today I will avenge my brother!" ”

Only a string sound was heard, and three arrows pierced the sky and flew straight towards Hu Yu.

"General Hu beware of cold arrows-" I don't know which soldier shouted loudly, and the voice reached Hu Yu's ears.

Hu Yu had just cut off the arm of a Goguryeo warrior, and as soon as he heard someone prompt him, he turned his head and saw three arrows flying towards his body, his eyes widened, and his face that was already covered with blood became hideous. Seeing that the three arrows were about to shoot into his body, saying that it was too late, it was too fast, Hu Yu turned the steel knife and put it across his chest, only to hear the sound of "dang", and one of the arrows was blocked by him with a knife.
