Chapter 379: Kaijing City Awakened
Liang Shanshui only sent a few warships to guard the Goryeo Naval Division that had surrendered, and the troop carriers and other warships behind them sailed to the port, Duan Jingzhu looked at these ships, pointed to the fleet and said to Zheng Wancai, "General, this is our army on Jeju Island, please don't forget the promise you just made, next, please look at the performance of our army!" ”
Zheng Wancai listened to Duan Jingzhu's words, remembered what he said before about becoming a subsidiary of Jeju Island, and couldn't help but be a little unwilling, he looked at the ship and the sergeant who began to disembark and said, "Then you have to have this ability, I think you are only a few thousand people, how can you beat the tens of thousands of horses of Tuo Junjing?" ”
Duan Jingzhu snorted, "My family's soldiers and horses, how can they be normal? ”
As for the artillery, because of the bombardment in front, it is now a little overheated, so they stay in the distance to monitor the Goryeo naval division, the first to go ashore is the sword and shield soldiers, followed by the pikemen, and finally the archers, the sergeants each wear red and black uniforms, and the two generals are in the front on war horses, which are the two generals of Wei Dingguo.
"Brother, look, there is the remnants of the Haizhou army over there, and the one who surrounds them is the Goryeo official army, its formation is chaotic, it is better for you and me to cooperate, I will divide the enemy army, you come to destroy it step by step, and the enemy army will be defeated." Wei Dingguo pointed to the Goryeo official army that was still entangled with the Haizhou army and said.
"Well, that's it, brothers, and form a battle against the enemy!"
"Brothers, the time has come to raise the prestige of our army, in this battle, we can only win but not lose, kill!"
With the command of Wei Dingguo's two generals, the Liangshan army killed the left and right sides of the battlefield, and the sergeants of the Goryeo army saw these guys who were obviously new forces, and they were first afraid in their hearts.
The physical strength required to fight a war in ancient times is not imaginable in modern warfare in later generations, wearing more than a dozen catties or even dozens of catties of armor, running, slashing and killing all rely on their own flesh, if a person uses a gun, as long as he can withstand recoil, it is not a big deal to fight for more than half an hour in a row, but if he cuts and kills for more than half an hour in a row, he will basically be tired and paralyzed.
This is also the reason why reserves are extremely heavy in both later generations and at this time, without reserves, no matter how many people have to finish playing, after all, this is not a game, and the physical strength of the soldiers is limited.
"Enemy attack!! Quick, fight back! "The Goryeo officers and soldiers who had surrounded the Haizhou army saw the Yangsan army coming ashore, and hurriedly recruited troops and horses to defeat the Yangsan army, but these scattered Goryeo troops were often killed by the long-range strikes of the sailors before they could get close to the Yangsan army.
Finally, the collision between the two armies began, and the shooting of the sailors began to gradually fall back.
"There are clouds in the art of war, water can be extinguished, and they cannot be taken away, and they cannot be divided!" Shan Tingqi roared, thousands of black-armored infantry shouted in unison, the pikemen took the lead, the sword and shield hands were behind, and they rushed forward, Shan Tingqi took his personal guards to ride a war horse to attack on the periphery, as long as there was a Goryeo army in formation, they immediately rushed up to disperse. Looking down from the sky, a long black whip can be seen piercing into the Goryeo army's formation, dividing the Goryeo army diagonally.
"The art of war is cloudy, invading and plundering, like the fierceness of fire, unstoppable! Beat them! ”
Wei Dingguo brandished his spear, stabbed sharply, and stabbed a Korean infantry opposite, and then gritted his teeth and flung the spear, the Goryeo infantry was picked up by him and fell on the body of those Goryeo infantry, and thousands of red-armored infantry followed Wei Dingguo's pace and rushed towards the Goryeo army that was divided.
A group of Goryeo troops counterattacked under the command of a general to meet the enemy, the two sides slashed each other's swords and guns, and the Goryeo army was surprised to find that their swords slashed on the bodies of these sergeants, and these sergeants often did not react, but themselves, as soon as they were stabbed or cut, the blood flowed like a spring, and they could not stop.
This is of course, there are very few iron armor in the battle armor of the Goryeo army, most of the leather armor, paper armor, and even many infantry are clothed in battle, and Liangshan since getting the iron ore, go all out to build ordnance, but also in the previous battle, obtained a large number of ordnance, like the two armies of Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingqi who fought at this time, used the original Song army ordnance, and it was also one of the best, in comparison, the ordnance of the Goryeo army was simply not an era, therefore, a battle, the surprise of the Goryeo army found, It's as if you're fighting an enemy you can't kill.
The already exhausted Goryeo army suddenly collapsed.
Tuo Junjing in Haizhou City listened to the news from the front line, and came to Xicheng with the Chinese army in disbelief, only to see countless Goryeo troops running back, he grabbed one person with one hand and shouted, "Why retreat, aren't we about to win?" ”
The sergeant didn't react at first, and he struggled until he was slapped by the sergeant next to him before he came to his senses.
"Both... Lord Dutong, defeated, we are defeated, run away, if we don't escape, we will die. ”
Tuo Junjing slashed at the sergeant's head with a knife, and then shouted, "Whoever retreats will be beheaded!" Stop these cowards! ”
Shen Caihao persuaded, "Lord Dutong, the Haizhou army has a new new force, and it seems that our army's naval division has been defeated, so the enemy's strength must be not small, our army should take a step back first, observe the situation, and then fight." ”
"You mean to retire now? We have already broken Haizhou City, as long as we hold on for a while, the head of Zheng Wancai's traitor will be obtained by us, do you want me to withdraw from the army now? Tuo Junjing's eyes widened and he said, "Don't you know how many people we have sacrificed for today?" How much material was used? Do you want me to quit now? ”
"Lord Toto! It is because we know that we have to retreat at this time, at this time most of our army has entered the city, the team is scattered, and the loss of combat power is severe, while the enemy army is unknown in number, the combat power is complete, the team is neat, and the forward is defeated. Shen Caihao looked back at Tuo Junjing and said, "In addition, our army does not need to completely withdraw from Haizhou City, our army can choose a city gate to defend, so that as long as our army wants to, it can attack Haizhou again at any time." ”
Tuo Junjing gasped for a while, looked at the retreating army, and waved his hand helplessly, "Withdraw the army, control the east gate, and fill the east gate with archers, no matter what, we have to master a city gate." ”
On the port of Haizhou, Zheng Wancai looked at the Liangshan army as if he was chopping melons and vegetables, his hands trembled, and he was surprised to find that the Liangshan army, which was only more than 2,000, really repelled tens of thousands of Goryeo troops.
"Newspaper!! Officers and soldiers have withdrawn! ”
Zheng Wancai sat on the ground with a bang, no matter what, she survived.
Duan Jingzhu looked at Zheng Wancai and said, "General, now, please follow the orders of our two generals, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingqi." ”
Zheng Wancai still stubbornly said: "Do you just have this little bit of troops?" In this way, you can't defeat Tuojun's army, do you want me to get on the ship and evacuate? Is this your way of fighting? ”
Duan Jingzhu snorted and said loudly, "Our army has defeated tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in just two or three thousand, can't the general still see the combat strength of our army clearly?" As for defeating Tuo Junjing, please rest assured, in less than ten days, Tuo Junjing's tens of thousands of troops will all be withdrawn, and with the support and cover of my sailors, ten days, it will not be difficult. ”
Zheng Wancai squinted and asked, "Withdraw?" ”
At this time, the two generals walked in while talking and laughing, followed by a group of sergeants dressed as Song Army, who were Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingqi of the Liangshan Army.
"Oh, Brother Duan Jingzhu, did you just see our battle? What a pleasure! Shan Tingqi said with a smile.
"Yes, after so many years in the army, I have never been so happy, these Goryeo troops are too weak, if it weren't for the too few troops given by the commander, they would have been wiped out this time... Who is this? Wei Dingguo laughed and said, there are a lot of beheadings this time, but it is a great achievement.
"Let me introduce, this is General Zheng Wancai, the general of the Haizhou Army, these two are Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue, both of whom are the commanders of my army." Duan Jingzhu introduced.
"Commander?" Zheng Wancai looked at the two of them puzzled.
"Oh, it's probably the official position of Yu Hou, the military capital of the Song Kingdom." Duan Jingzhu explained.
"Oh~" Zheng Wancai's eyes were full of contempt, it turned out that he was just a petty official. "Is this how you treat the Allies on Jeju Island?"
Duan Jingzhu saw Zheng Wancai's disdain, he stood beside Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingqi, and said to Zheng Wancai, "General Zheng Wancai, don't forget, you are now a subordinate of our army, not an allied army, according to the order of the commander of our army, please ask the Haizhou army to cooperate with our army to fight." ”
"That's... I'm sorry, I just escaped death, I can't help but be a little out of shape, cough cough, cooperate, we must cooperate, but we should cooperate? How to fight? Zheng Wancai wanted to come for a moment, and felt that his situation was still very dangerous at this time, so he coughed, changed his posture, and asked respectfully.
Duan Jingzhu looked at Wei Dingguo and Shan Tingjue, and Wei Dingguo said, "According to the order of the Commander's Headquarters, our army only needs to contain Tuo Junjing's army, and everything, when the battle in Kaijing is over, Tuo Junjing's army will naturally retreat." ”
"Kaijing?" Zheng Wancai was stunned for a moment and asked.
Wei Dingguo said with a smile: "The main force of our army, at this time, it should have arrived at the capital of Kaijing." ”
-- Kaijing
Before the sun rose in the morning, several Goryeo soldiers yawned and walked up to the east gate of the capital.
The gate of the east gate was also creaked open, and the people who had been waiting at the gate began to line up to enter and leave the city.
Of course, there were also caravans or vendors pushing one-wheelers or horse-drawn carriages in and out.
I don't know what happened, suddenly, the wheels of a carriage fell, and the whole carriage collapsed to the ground, and the carriage was full of boxes, all of which fell down at once, some of the boxes broke to the ground, and countless silver and copper coins fell to the ground.
"Oh my God! It's money! ”
"Grab it!"
"Don't rob them, these are our family's money, come on, stop them!"
But in the face of the temptation of money, where can a simple shout be stopped? In other words, the Goryeo sergeants who were supposed to be guarding the gate also joined in the category of picking up money and even robbing it.
The East City Gate was suddenly in chaos.
"Damn it, how did they have so much luck?" The Goryeo sergeants on the city tower looked at the chaos below, and they were simply greedy, but they looked at the situation below and knew that they couldn't pick up anything now, and they had to bear the responsibility of leaving their posts without permission, so they didn't go downstairs, of course, some of the closest ones still went downstairs to take advantage.
"yes, huh? What's there? A Goryeo sergeant said, pointing into the distance.
I saw that a firework suddenly appeared dozens of feet away from the city gate, and the fireworks were very beautiful, looking at such fireworks, many Goryeo soldiers even felt a little intoxicated.
"This is called fireworks, and it's something from the Song Kingdom, but why are there fireworks here? Does anyone want to have a happy event? A young sergeant asked, puzzled.
"Song Kingdom's things, it must be very expensive, it must be a rich family."
Because the sun has not yet fully come out, and the scenery in the distance is not clear, everyone can only guess.
"Smack!" "Smack!"
But then, one after another, fireworks burst into the sky, until nearly two or three miles away, followed by a muffled thunder from far to near.
"What's that sound?"
"Wait, there's movement there, there's a lot of smoke."
An old general's eyes suddenly widened, and he fell to the ground and listened for a while, then jumped up anxiously and shouted, "Close the city gates!" Light the wolf smoke! Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!! ”
"What?"
"Enemy attack?"
"How is that possible? We're here in Kaijing. ”
No one believed that war would befall the city, at least, before the border warning, no one would have believed it.
Yes, there is a war on the Haizhou side, but Haizhou is on the west side, and this side is the east gate, even if it is a surprise attack, it shouldn't be here.
"Obey me! Close the city gates, violators will be killed!! So saying, he drew his sword and ran towards the city gate with his guards.
If someone faces this veteran, they will find that the veteran's eyes are full of fear.
Under the city gate, the chaos continued, and when these people heard the shouts of closing the city gate and preparing for war, they were all stunned, what was going on? Why is there a war all of a sudden? What kind of battle is this? Fight with whom?
Some of the people and merchants in the gates suddenly looked at each other, drew their blades from the firewood, from the axles, from the goods, and slashed at the soldiers.
One of them shouted loudly in Goryeo, "The Lee family is reversed!" The Li family is reversed!! ”
What the? The Li family is reversed?
As long as you are a Goryeo person, you know who this Li family is, that is the prime minister of the dynasty, the Li family of Qingyuan Mansion who is the first nobleman in the world, they want to rebel, then it's not going to turn the sky upside down?
Many of the generals guarding the city gate were related to the Li family, and they all slowed down when they listened to the Li family's shouts.
And because of such a change, the city gate could not be closed at once.
At this time, the smoke and dust in the distance are less than a hundred zhang away from the east gate, the first ray of the sun illuminates the earth, from the city tower, you can clearly see the light reflected by countless battle armor and blades, and a large sun and moon flag fluttering in front.
"Jeju Island led 200,000 troops to help Li Gong ascend the throne!"
The earth-shattering roar, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves that shook the ground, woke up the entire Kaijing City.
