Liu Shijiang, who was covering up the retreating Silla army, took a look in a blink of an eye and found the figure of Wen Zhong, the deputy general of the Silla army, only five steps away from him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

How could a God-given opportunity miss the opportunity to kill the Silla general?

Liu Shijiang lifted the knife and killed it, and the long Mo knife was swung down, and one of the three personal soldiers protecting Wen Zhong was cut into two pieces, and the two were broken at the waist and fell to the ground, seeing that they couldn't survive.

Wen Zhong was shocked, and hurriedly raised his knife to meet the battle, and all the personal soldiers around him were entangled by Liu Shijiang's personal soldiers and could not come forward to rescue.

The two fought with knives for ten rounds, Wen Zhong's strength gradually became exhausted, and his own soldiers around him became fewer and fewer, and he had a panic intention to get rid of Liu Shijiang and quickly withdraw. One move was not very good, and Liu Shijiang seized the opportunity, and the domineering Mo knife directly slashed the long knife in Wen Zhong's hand.

Liu Shijiang was overjoyed, and the killing of the Silla general was in front of him, and he hurriedly waved his knife to prepare to bring it to fruition.

Wen Zhong, who had a dead face, was stabbed in the shoulder, thinking that he would also be cut in half like those subordinates who died at the hands of Tang Mo's knife. The strange thing is that Wen Zhong didn't feel the pain of his body being split, but the whole person was slashed to the ground by the force of the knife, except for the severe pain caused by the broken shoulder blade, he actually didn't lose control of his limbs?

Liu Shijiang was stunned for a while, how could it be possible with his mind full of thoughts?

Wen Zhong, who was in a desperate situation, laughed, and didn't find out why he was not immediately split by the Tang general in front of him, so he ran away on his stomach while covering his broken left arm, and quickly ran into the retreating Silla army and disappeared.

At this time, Liu Shijiang raised the knife to see what was going on, and the blade where he cut Chinese Zhong was actually more than two inches long.

Liu Shijiang hated it, and it was this broken knife that failed to kill the Silla general Wen Zhong and made a great contribution? In a fit of rage, he threw the Mo knife in his hand that had been fighting with him for several years towards the retreating Silla army.

A Silla soldier who was running wildly looked back and found that there was no pursuing Tang Army behind him, and he was overjoyed. The man's unbelievable eyes were fixed on the two-foot long knife that pierced through his chest, and the blood in his chest flowed down the blade.

Most of the Silla army retreated into the city, and before the Tang army could rush in, Pinri ordered the soldiers to close the city gates.

Seven or eight hundred people rushed up, ignoring the pleading and scolding of the soldiers who were still outside the city gate, and with a bang, the gate was tightly closed.

Pin Ri did not see Wen Zhong among the soldiers who retreated into the city, and thought that he was killed in battle, until a soldier helped Wen Zhong, who had a broken left arm and a pale face, to the front of his eye.

Haigu City is not a place to stay for a long time, once it is surrounded by the Tang army, it will become a turtle in an urn, and it is necessary to retreat to the east bank of the Licheng River as soon as possible.

Without waiting for the soldiers who had been fighting for several hours to rest, Pinri ordered the whole army to line up and quickly leave the city from the east gate and go straight to the Licheng River ferry.

Outside the west gate of Haigu, although the victorious Tang army soldiers failed to take advantage of the victory to attack Haigu City and wipe out the Silla army, after annihilating the Silla army outside the city, everyone was like a deflated ball, paralyzed or sitting on the ground on the battlefield full of corpses and bloody forests, or lying directly on the battlefield, closing their eyes and recuperating.

For four days, it was a day and night pursuit, and it was a bitter battle for several hours, and even the most brave soldiers were tired enough, and as soon as the battle was over, they did not want to get up when they lay on the ground. Although the battlefield stinks incomparably, in the eyes of those who have never been on the battlefield, it is even more terrifying, and Shura is in hell.

Many tired soldiers who fell asleep on the battlefield were covered in blood, and they thought it was a dead corpse because they didn't pay attention to their heaving chests, which made the soldiers responsible for collecting the bodies of their fallen soldiers make a lot of jokes. Several of the soldiers who had fallen asleep were carried onto the carriage full of corpses as dead bodies, and it was not until they were overwhelmed by the corpses in the cart that they woke up to find themselves in a pile of broken corpses, and they were immediately frightened and crawled out of the pile of corpses.

Li Shangdan and Liu Shijiang clenched Chen Xuan's hand and laughed, patted Chen Xuan's shoulder and said gratefully: "Brother Chen, it's really time for you to come, otherwise this victory or defeat is really unpredictable!" ”

Chen Xuan's face was embarrassed, Nuofei rejected Li Shangdan's suggestion a few days ago, and it would not be so difficult to fight today, so he had to smile: "A certain and Qi Biguang are now at the order of His Royal Highness to listen to Brother Li's dispatch, and I hope Brother Li will ignore his previous suspicions." ”

"Hahaha, when did a certain Li Shangdan have a suspicion with Brother Chen?" Li Shangdan was as if the previous unhappiness had not happened, and he hugged Chen Xuan's shoulders and said enthusiastically like a brother: "You and I are all under the account of King Yan, and we should work together to expand the territory for the Tang Dynasty and exterminate the unconvinced Siyi, why should you pay attention to the slightest unhappiness on weekdays?" ”

Chen Xuan heard it in his ears, and he knew what Li Shangdan meant's words meant, and everyone didn't care about it, so why should he worry?

An hour later, Qi Biguang rushed to the battlefield with the remaining 5,000 reinforcements panting like an ox, looking at the battlefield that had long ended and was full of corpses, and the soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, in their current tired state, they really rushed up to fight, and I don't know how many people died on the battlefield because of their exhausted bodies.

Whether it was the soldiers who had just experienced the battle or the reinforcements brought by Qibiguang, they were all tired divisions, and Li Shangdan decided that the whole army would rest outside the city for a day before preparing for the siege.

At this moment, the sentry cavalry reported that the Silla army had already fled from the east gate of Haigu City, and it would be able to reach the Licheng River tonight by running more than ten miles east.

Liu Shijiang asked: "In today's battle, our army killed more than 7,000 Silla troops, and the rest of the army may have more than 8,000 people. At present, our army has more than 2,000 cavalry, and there is a plain terrain to the east of Haigu City, which is suitable for giving full play to the advantages of our cavalry. ”

Li Shangdan shook his head and denied: "Our army is currently very tired of both cavalry and foot soldiers, and it is extremely resting and recuperating, not the time to pursue, and we will send cavalry to pursue tomorrow." ”

There was no Silla army in Haigu City, so Li Shangdan asked people to climb the city wall and open the city gate from the inside, led the army into the city tonight to rest, and ordered every household in the city to offer livestock wine to eat as a reward for the soldiers.

The people in the city complained that yesterday the Silla army entered the city to ask them to sacrifice livestock, wine and food, and today the Tang army won the victory and entered the city again. In just these two days, the livestock of the people in Haigu City was gone, and most of the grain stored at home was requisitioned by the Silla army and the Tang army. On the second day, most of the people in the city fled to the countryside, not only to avoid the war, but also to find a bite to eat.

……

When Pinri and Wenzhong led the remnants of the army to Lichengjiang until late at night, there were more than 8,000 soldiers when they left the city. Fleeing all the way, thousands of soldiers could not keep up with the large army and got lost on the road, so the remnants of the Silla army were only left with more than 5,000 tired divisions.

When they stopped on the bank of the Yeesung River, the Silla soldiers thought that they had no standing statue, no sitting posture, and their bodies were extremely filthy and filthy, like a group of refugees fleeing.

Pinri ordered to camp on the riverbank tonight, and cut down wood and build a raft to cross the river early tomorrow morning.
