Chapter 81: This Is Just the Beginning
The Goguryeo cavalry finally broke through the defense of the Mo swordsmen as they wished, and only two hundred of the four hundred Mo swordsmen retreated into the rear shield wall, and although the other two hundred Mo swordsmen died on the battlefield, their fierce appearance had already been deeply rooted in the minds of the Goguryeo people.
"Damn Han people, it's too ferocious!"
The commander's tone froze, and he turned to look at the cavalry coming from behind.
In front of this group of cavalry, a big man was wielding a long knife, surging forward, and the scorching sun in the sky stretched his figure, and his shadow was several feet long, as if falling from the sky.
"Master Qianfu, it's Han Qi, we have been ambushed!"
A centurion yelled in fear.
The commander looked around, his body and bones suddenly cooled, how could the four thousand cavalry who followed the battle only have more than a thousand people left in the blink of an eye?
"Grandpa Guan Hai Laiye, the thief army will die soon!"
Guan Hai Ma was fast, the jujube red horse flew with four hooves, and in a few breaths, he rushed into front of the Goguryeo array, and at the same time, the long knife in his hand carried the afterimage, broke through the air, swept through the thousands of troops, and immediately cut off the three Goguryeo cavalry.
"Kill!"
The cavalry of the Qingzhou battalion roared vigorously, their morale was high, and like a tiger, they rushed directly into the Goguryeo cavalry formation.
……
In the wilderness west of Goguryeo City, a group of black-armored elite cavalry ran slower and slower, and finally suddenly stopped their pace, turned their horses' heads, and looked back at the Goguryeo cavalry chasing behind them.
"Array!"
One of the leading white-robed generals waved his spear, and in an instant, the five hundred cavalry scattered and formed a front row of fifty people, a total of eight rows of cavalry phalanx, and the remaining one hundred cavalry fled to the left and right flanks.
"Phew!"
The Goguryeo centurion, who was ordered to pursue, hurriedly drank his war horse, and looked around, with four fields and one horse and a flat river, there was neither a dense forest, nor a canyon, nor an ambush.
The centurion was relieved, and laughed loudly: "Presumably, this group of thieves can't escape, brothers, kill them, cut off their heads, so that you can go back and ask for merit." ”
"Wow......"
The Goguryeo cavalry suddenly screamed as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, raised the scimitar in their hands, and pounced.
In their eyes, the group of Han cavalry in front of them was at the end of their rope, and this phalanx was also useless, and if they wanted to destroy them, they would charge at most.
Moreover, they still had an advantage in numbers, and the Han cavalry only had five hundred men, but they had seven or eight hundred.
"Kill!"
The Goguryeo cavalry galloped at high speed, and the sound of horses' hooves was like spring thunder, although it did not have earth-shattering power, but it continued one after another.
"Humph!"
Zhao Yun shook the gentian and flashed the silver spear, and shouted loudly: "The Xuanjia sergeant obeys the order, rushes into battle, and fights quickly!" ”
"Drink!"
The four hundred Xuanjia troops in the phalanx roared in unison, and the spears in their hands stabbed forward in unison, charging at this Goguryeo cavalry with Zhao Yun's long shadow.
"Huh?"
The Goguryeo centurion frowned, did this group of Han thieves lose their hearts and go crazy? Or are you not afraid of death?
The centurion muttered in his heart, and in an instant, his face changed greatly, and he saw that his soldiers were like paper paste, and they were stabbed from the horseback one by one by the spears, and the leading white-robed general was even more brave, and with the strength of one person, he killed his own cavalry formation, and was coming to his side.
"Changshan Zhao Zilong is here!"
A long sound broke through the air, like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, shattering the centurion's eardrum, and in horror, the centurion hurriedly slashed his knife in his chest, wanting to resist the gentian bright silver spear in Zhao Yun's hand.
It's a pity that it backfired, the centurion's eyes flickered, and a spear like a dragon, a cold spear as fast as lightning had pierced his chest, and the heart that sucked was immediately blocked by the blood vessels.
The centurion's eyes widened sharply, and the scimitar in his hand was waved out weakly, slashing through the air, leaving no trace.
"Boom!"
Zhao Yun pulled the gentian bright silver spear out of the centurion's chest, and suddenly a burst of blood spurted out, dyeing the war horse under the centurion's crotch red.
"Boom!"
After that, the corners of the centurion's eyes were full of ashes, and the man suddenly fell off his horse and died.
The Xuanjia soldiers did not show weakness, the spear in his hand was a swift and incomparably straight stab at the Goguryeo soldiers, the guns rose and fell, and after half an hour, no one survived the Goguryeo cavalry on this road, because the retreat had already been cut off by a hundred Xuanjia soldiers outside the phalanx.
Zhao Yun looked around on the battlefield, and there was no shadow of half of the enemy army, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Do according to the plan!" ”
"No!"
The five hundred Xuanjia soldiers dismounted one after another, pulled off the clothes and armor of the dead Goguryeo soldiers, and then abandoned the spears in their hands, and one after another held scimitars, turned over on their horses, and ran away with Zhao Yun again.
……
Outside the city of Goguryi, King Taejo was looking ahead with a smug face, and most of the time had passed, and his men would soon bring back the news of victory.
Here it comes!
Looking at a team of cavalry rushing back, King Taizu looked back at Tian Yu beside him, and said with a smile: "The warriors of this king are back, haha......, stay for a while, you go to Liaodong for me, find out the truth, this king is going to break through Liaodong." ”
"No!"
Tian Yu bowed down to receive the order, as a Han Chinese, he did not have the slightest sense of guilt, but was full of achievements, the wider the territory of King Taizu, the higher his status.
"Drive!"
One by one, the war horses rushed back, which speed, a few points faster than when they just rushed into battle, King Taizu's eyes were sharp, what was going on? Why this point?
Tian Yu straightened his body, looked at it from afar, and was puzzled, no, how could this Goguryeo cavalry feel like they were running for their lives!
Behind this Goguryeo cavalry, another cavalry appeared, waving weapons of different colors in their hands, and was shouting: "Hugh is going to leave the thief army, kill!" ”
Defeated?
Tian Yu was stunned, and hurriedly said to King Taizu: "King, it seems that the situation is not good, let's withdraw to the city first." ”
"What?"
King Taizu roared sharply: "What did you say? ”
Tian Yu pointed to the cavalry rolling in front of him, and said hurriedly: "King, you see, our cavalry is being chased by the Han cavalry!" ”
King Taizu's face turned black in an instant, and as far as he could see, he saw that four or five hundred Goguryeo cavalry were fleeing for their lives, and behind him, there were one or two thousand Han cavalry chasing and killing.
"Retreat to the city, my lord!"
Tian Yu said urgently.
Because the cavalry left by King Taizu's side only had five hundred personal guards, although these five hundred people were one of the warriors in a hundred, once they were rushed out of place by their own soldiers, they would not be far from death.
"Removal ......"
King Taizu shouted loudly, his tone filled with consternation, disappointment, anger, and fear.
