Thirty-six-year-old Zhang Chengyou, who was at the peak of his life, began to lead the troops alone at the age of twenty, and has been sixteen years now. I have rarely suffered defeats in my life, and the few times I have suffered losses at the hands of the Tang Army with my father.

As the natural leader of the young Zhuang faction in the Liao army, Zhang Chengyou is a staunch anti-Tang faction, and what he thinks about is that one day he can counterattack back to the Central Plains and defeat the Tang army led by Li Ze.

As the supreme governor sent by Zhang Zhongwu to Goryeo, what Zhang Chengyou had to do was to constantly exploit the Goryeo people and plunder the wealth of the Goryeo people to expand the Liao region. Whether it is gold and silver, or grain, medicinal materials, or even people, whatever is the difference in Liaodi, Zhang Chengyou will get anything from Goryeo.

What dried up and fish was not in Zhang Chengyou's consideration at all, in his eyes, the Koreans were not real people at all, just some alternative big animals that could create wealth for him.

His high-pressure behavior in Goryeo finally caused a powerful backlash. Although he was nominally invited by Lee Jae-do, the common people would vote with their feet.

When the Tan clan rebelled, the common people who supported Li Zaidao still accounted for the majority, no matter what, obeying the king was something deep in their bone marrow, and the Tan clan rebelled against the king, in the hearts of many ordinary people, it was naturally wrong.

Tan Daoji was defeated and retreated, retreated into the mountains and began to swim and attack, and after almost becoming the king of the mountain, Zhang Chengyou finally showed his fangs.

Only then did the people of Goryeo realize that they had fallen into the mud. Defeating the traitors only deepened their misery in their lives.

Those who could not survive began to flee.

Some people were lucky enough to flee into the mountains and became supporters of Tan Daoji.

Some people were unlucky and were caught, so they became slaves and were sent to Liaodi by Zhang Chengyou.

For a long time, in order to make up for the shortage of labor in Liaodi, Zhang Chengyou wantonly captured the population in Gaoli, and the people of the whole village and town were arrested in the name of Tan Daoji's subordinates, and then sent to Liaodi to be enslaved.

Lee Jae-do truly became a puppet king, and it was difficult for the government to leave the palace.

And Zhang Chengyou's cruel rule also made Tan Daoji finally breathe a sigh of relief, and as time went by, he became stronger and stronger.

However, they are still not taken into account by Zhang Chengyou.

Just like now, there are only more than 10,000 people under Zhang Chengyou's command, and as for the thousands of Korean soldiers under Li Zaidao, in Zhang Chengyou's eyes, they are at most consumables. At this moment, the people of Tan Daoji on the opposite side were at least more than 50,000 people, and there was no end in sight.

Such a decisive battle between the two armies is exactly what Zhang Chengyou dreamed of.

The battle of the Liao army to attack the Tang land has officially begun, and at this moment, it is the weakest time in the Tang land, only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses of the right Jin Wuwei to defend the Liao army in Pingzhou, and Zhang Chengyou has never taken Xue Chong to heart. And the development of the war, as he expected, Xue Chong simply retreated without a fight, and before the battle started, he basically gave up Pingzhou.

Although Deng Jingshan suffered a loss in the battle of Jianchang, so that Zhang Zhongwu's headquarters had to go out in advance before the autumn harvest was completely over, the prospects for the war were still very optimistic.

Because Zhang Chengyou knew that Li Ze's army would never be able to come to Xue Chong's aid. How could Xue Chong, who was fighting alone, be the opponent of the main force of the Liao Army?

He really wanted to leave Goryeo earlier and participate in the vigorous war in the Central Plains, instead of playing hide and seek with Tan Daoji, a leopard in Goryeo.

It just so happened that at this time, Tan Daoji also thought that the main force of the Liao army had left Yingzhou, and Zhang Chengyou had become a lone army.

After figuring out Tan Daoji's thoughts, Zhang Chengyou was excited, and he planned to lure Tan Daoji out of the mountain to have a decisive battle with himself to annihilate the opponent in one fell swoop, and completely solve the problem of rebellion within Goryeo, then he would be able to leave, and when the time came, only one general here could calm the situation, without Tan Daoji, only need to control the Goryeo lord Lee Jae-do, and everything would be perfect.

The feints after failures fueled Tan Daoji's ambitions, and also made Zhang Chengyou finally wait for the moment of decisive battle with his opponent.

At this moment, he has sent his general Yelu Yuan to make a detour to block Tan Daoji's back road, Tan Daoji is too capable of escaping, once something is wrong, he will pull back and run, once he escapes again, even if he completely annihilates this anti-thief, it is also for the mountain nine thousand, the success is short, only by catching or killing Tan Daoji, can it be regarded as a real solution to the problem of Goryeo.

After Yelu Yuan left with 3,000 Khitan cavalry, Zhang Chengyou was left with only 2,000 cavalry, plus 8,000 foot soldiers, to face Tan Daoji's 50,000 rebels.

But Jang Seung-woo never felt like he was going to lose.

Look at the guys on the other side, the one with a full suit on him is considered a rich man. Most people's weapons are a spear. That is, in the part of the Chinese army, you can see that there are about a few thousand people, all wearing armor. That's also the main force of Tan Daoji.

Look at your side again, even those Korean soldiers of Li Zaidao have a leather armor on their bodies to defend themselves, and as for the Liao army, they are helmets and armor, and the military appearance is neat.

The rumbling sound of the snare drum sounded on the opposite side, and after the three drums, the rebels shouted loudly, and Hulala rushed over.

Zhang Chengyou laughed, rode his horse and stood up, pointed his halberd forward, and roared loudly: "Sons, today's battle will be decided, capture Tan Daoji alive, and we can go home." ”

"Go home, go home!" More than 10,000 Liao soldiers waved the swords and guns in their hands, and shouted excitedly. In the days of Goryeo, although you can show off your might and be domineering, if you really want to talk about it, it is still quite hard, especially when you have to drill a ravine to fight against Tan Daoji, it is really not a human life.

Those rebels, always like you gophers, can come out of any place to get a cold knife and give you a knife, and the places where they hide are sometimes simply eye-opening.

Since Tan Daoji escaped into the mountains, they have not fought a serious battle with their opponents, and they have always spent time in pursuit. In the summer, when I was covered in stinky sweat, I had to fight mosquitoes, rats and ants more than when I fought against thieves. Winter is cold to death, and trekking through the thick snow is a luxury to even drink a sip of hot water.

Now, I can finally fight face-to-face with my opponent, and every Liao soldier's heart is full of fighting spirit.

"All the troops are attacking!" Zhang Chengyou clamped the war horse under his crotch and rushed out first.

Dealing with such a group of mud legs, Zhang Chengyou didn't feel that he needed any special tactics, just face to face with a hard bar in the past, just like grinding the ground, he wanted to grind all the opponents in front of his war horse.

The two armies collided with each other, and as Zhang Chengyou had predicted, the Liao army was like a red-hot tongs stabbed into the snow, and the rebels were melted as quickly as snow as they passed.

But gradually, the Liao army still felt some obstacles.

The morale of the rebels was unusually high.

Probably because of their successive victories during this period of time, or because their numbers were several times that of their opponents, at the beginning, even if Zhang Chengyou was overwhelmed, the rebels with a large number of people still rushed over without fear of death, pestering Zhang Chengyou to death, hindering him from advancing to the hillside where the military flag of Tan Dao Jizhong was planted.

Tan Daoji stood on the hillside, looking at Zhang Chengyou's department, under the layers of obstacles, although it was difficult, but still rushed towards him step by step, he couldn't help but sigh.

It's not that his soldiers aren't brave, it's just that sometimes courage is really not the key to victory. When there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, courage, on the contrary, will make them suffer greater losses.

Just like now, the more courageous his soldiers marched forward, the more they fell under the butcher's knife of the Liao army.

The rebel's knife, slashed at the Liao army, burst out of pieces of sparks, a spear passed, before the strength was sufficient, it was blocked by the armor stomach and slid to the side, even if the opponent was injured, but it was difficult to kill for a while, and if they were stabbed and hit by a spear, they would immediately lose their combat effectiveness.

"Daozhen, is everything arranged over there in Seoul?" Tan Daoji, who was not shocked on his face, looked at Zhang Chengyou, who was getting closer and closer to him, and asked.

Tan Daozhen, who was beside him, nodded and said, "Dowling went in person." When the time comes, as long as Jang Seung-woo is defeated, many people in Seoul will understand which side they should stand on, they are the grass on the wall, and as long as they confirm that we have won, they will naturally do their best to help us, in the hope of making some merit in front of you, brother. ”

Tan Daoji sneered: "If you really want to count on these people to make us Goryeo strong, it is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger, or not, we will slowly clean them up in the future." ”

Tan Daozhen said: "Yes, we have to deal with Li Zaidao first, when Zhang Chengyou's defeated soldiers and the defeated soldiers of the imperial court poured back to Seoul, what happened there, who can say clearly, the lord of the country died in the chaos, that is also something that no one can imagine." ”

"The Tang people want to build an antagonism between the lord of the country and me in Goryeo, so that they can make a profit in the middle, hehe, I will draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, without the lord of the country, I think what else can they do? What else can you do but rely on me to stabilize the situation in Goryeo? They are going to set out from Goryeo to attack Yingzhou, and we are indispensable for us to provide them with baggage, grain and grass, and people's husbands. Who else can make them attack Yingzhou without any worries? ”

"Brother has no last resort."

"What a last resort!" Tan Daoji smiled miserably: "This is the sorrow of the weak." Dao Zhen, you lead 2,000 main forces down to fight Zhang Chengyou, and then we will retreat! ”
