Chapter 53: The Battle of the Songhua River

Gao Wuxu and Yi Shitai led an army of 50,000 to Jiayeyuan, and met with an army of 10,000 led by Chen Tang in the area of Shuangyashan and Songhua River.

Yi Shitai was over sixty years old, and he met Gao Doumo when he was young, and when Gao Doumo launched a coup d'état, Yi Shitai fully supported and defeated and expelled Xie Fulou, so that there is now Northern Buyeo.

After Xie Fu Lou went to Jiaye Yuan, he established Dong Fuyu, and Yi Shitai led the army to attack Dong Fuyu, captured and killed Xie Fu Lou, and chased Xie Jinwa to go to the king's name, bowing down to the ministers.

After Xie Jinwa surrendered, Gao Doumo was worried that Yi Shitai's prestige in the army was too high and threatened his position, so he dismissed Yi Shitai from his official position.

If it weren't for Gao Doumo's desire to pave the way for Gao Wuxu this time, and he would not have invited Yi Shitai to Gao Wuxu as his deputy, Gao Doumo's move was clearly to let Gao Wuxu make military merits and take this opportunity to gain the love of the army.

Chen Tang garrison in the northeast of Shuangyashan, Yi Shitai garrison in the northwest of Shuangyashan, the two across Shuangyashan, across the river.

"Veteran Yi Shitai, although known as the first name of North Buyeo, but he has been idle at home, more than 20 years have not been in charge of military affairs, and now he is in charge of the army again, I don't know if he still knows whether the army is now."

Chen Tang listened to the information that the military marquis came to report, threw the bamboo slip in his hand on the desk, and said with a smile: "Someone, pass on my order, attack immediately, and capture the old man of Yi Shitai alive." ”

The generals on the left and right were shocked and persuaded them: "Angels, the rebels are five times larger than us, and our direct attack is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg and asking for our own destruction." ”

Chen Tang waved his hand and said disapprerovingly: "War is fought with courage, and what is fought is courage, as long as we rise up and break their front army, the rebels will only break themselves." ”

"If we are indecisive and avoid their edge, once our morale is lost, we will be weaker than others, and what will you do to defeat the rebels."

Chen Tang said that when he was excited, he pointed at their noses and scolded: "It doesn't matter if you lose, if it affects my prestige because of this, can you afford it?" ”

As he spoke, he drew his sword and shouted: "Immediately pass on my order, if anyone disobeys, he will be cut immediately." ”

The generals on the left and right were all frightened and did not dare to offend Chen Tang Huwei, so they retreated with their fists in their fists and gathered their troops to prepare to attack.

At this time, Yi Shitai, who was on the other side of the Songhua River, also got the information, and smiled at Gao Wuxu and said: "Little prince, according to the old minister...... Xie Jinwa was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and he actually let a Han envoy who was less than twenty years old be the commander, and I don't know what he thought. ”

Gao Wuxu patted his thigh and said excitedly: "Xie Jinwa, this prince has heard of it, he is a cowardly and incompetent person, he thought that if he could hug the leg of the Han this time, he would be able to sit back and relax, in order to please the Han Dynasty, so he would let the Han envoy be the commander, then wouldn't we win." ”

Yi Shitai nodded, stroked his long beard, and said, "This Chen soup...... Lao Chen has never heard of it, nor has he heard of any young generals in the Han Dynasty, he thinks he is a nobody, and he is not a person entrusted by the golden frog. ”

Gao Wuxu danced excitedly, and said urgingly: "Then what are you waiting for, I can't wait to press the golden frog back to the royal city, let those old stubborns see how powerful this prince is." ”

"The prince is at ease." Yi Shitai hurriedly dissuaded: "Our logistics troops have not arrived yet, and after they arrive, it will not be too late for us to attack." ”

Gao Wuxu said unwillingly: "Since my father said that you are in charge of the army, then the prince will wait patiently for a day." ”

Hearing that Gao Wuxu listened to his opinion, Yi Shitai stroked his long beard with relief, and thought in his heart: This expedition, with the support of the king and the cooperation of the prince, why worry about the golden frog will not be destroyed!

I Yi Shitai didn't expect that when I was old, I would be able to make such great achievements, and I would be able to leave a name in history for future generations to visit.

Just as Yi Shitai was about to get into trouble, a guard ran in in a panic and said eagerly: "Tell the little prince and General Yi, something is wrong, the enemy has launched an attack on us." ”

"What? The enemy forces are attacking us on their own initiative?! Yi Shitai said in surprise, and the hand that was stroking his beard was surprised and accidentally tore off a few whiskers, which made him open his teeth and tears.

The guard replied anxiously: "Yes, General Yi, the enemy army is crossing the river very violently, we can't hold it anymore, what should we do now, prince, General Yi?" ”

"So fast? What do you eat? I'm just here to report now. Yi Shitai picked up the matching sword on the weapon rack, and rushed out of the tent in a hurry, Gao Wuxu's face was gloomy, and he also stepped forward.

On the bank of the Songhua River, Chen Tang stood with his sword in his hand, looking at the soldiers who could not attack the other side for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "All the attacks must not retreat, if any soldiers retreat, they will kill their captains; If there is a captain who retreats and kills his chief; If any of them retreats, they will kill their commanders; And so on, if any of the generals are timid, the official will personally kill them to sacrifice the military law and military regulations. ”

As soon as Chen Tang's order arrived, the soldiers of Dongfu Yu Kingdom seemed to have beaten chicken blood, and their combat effectiveness increased, and after a while, they approached the opposite shore.

Yi Shitai, who rushed to hear the news, didn't expect the other party to attack the shore so quickly, and hurriedly ordered to set up a formation, with two thousand shield bearers in front, archers and pikemen in the back, and more than a thousand cavalry on both sides arranged.

When Chen Tang saw the formation arranged by Yi Shitai, he immediately ordered the destruction of the ship, and said in a majestic manner: "The ship has been destroyed, there is no way back, you only have two ways to choose now, one is to kill each other, the other is to be killed by the other party, whether you die or the other party dies, it depends on your own performance." ”

The soldiers turned pale with fright, but the ships were gone, and they had to go to the opposite shore and fight with the soldiers of the Northern Buyeo Kingdom.

For a time, the morale of the East Buyeo army soared, and they rushed forward one by one, and actually broke through the army of North Buyeo, and there was a sharp knife that went straight into the camp of the North Buyeo Central Army.

Yi Shitai had just set up his position, and was about to appreciate the one-sided slaughter, and then killed the Han envoy by the way, and then led the army to advance into Jiaye Yuan and capture the golden moth alive.

But...... I have figured out the script myself, why the development of the plot is a little different from what I imagined, the massacre is still a one-sided massacre, but the target of the slaughter has been transformed from Dongfuyu to himself, Yi Shitai can't accept this fact, and keeps roaring.

As soon as Gao Wuxu saw that his army was defeated, he immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet and led his guards back to the royal city.

Yi Shitai was unwilling to accept such an unexplained defeat, and the army under his command wanted to fight to the death with the East Fuyu Army, but the North Fuyu Army was already disheartened, and it had long lost the courage to fight to the death with East Fuyu, and they fled and scattered.
