Chapter 469: The Fall of Java

Wei Chi Xunyu was full of confidence in his words, and his mouth was like a river to tell the truth of today's victory, which boosted the morale of all the soldiers and soldiers.

With a battalion (800 people) to attack the enemy's north side of the Heling monarch and minister's guard of honor, not to defeat it, but to contain it. Wei Chi Xunyu personally led 400 elite cavalry to storm the area of the river beach on the south side where the enemy army gathered, and ordered Yang Wuyang to lead a battalion of soldiers to follow closely behind, and then take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill after the cavalry will impact the enemy formation and chaos.

In the face of the Tang army taking the initiative to attack, King Heling smiled left and right: "After the war, Nuo Nengsheng captured this Tang general, remember not to kill it first, you have to be escorted to this king, let me ask him two thousand soldiers, where did he have the courage to challenge our army?" ”

"Hahaha......"

The official of the Heling laughed.

However, a shocking scene appeared, and the princes and ministers of Heling suddenly couldn't laugh, and watched in amazement as the south side where their troops gathered was attacked by the cavalry of the Tang Army and showed a tendency to collapse.

At this time, the monarchs and ministers of Heling were horrified to find that most of the troops gathered in the flat and open river beach area of Nanzheng were too crowded, and the various departments were not separated from each other by a certain distance as a buffer, resulting in the soldiers and horses in front of the battle being attacked by the Tang cavalry and unable to retreat, and the soldiers and horses in the rear did not know the situation in front but rushed forward under the call of the generals, resulting in a chaotic situation of inconsistent advance and retreat of the army on the battlefield.

After Wei Chi Xunyu led the cavalry to break through the military formation of the Heling army, he kept pressing the Heling army without stopping, forcing its army to retreat one step further and causing greater chaos.

A battalion of infantry led by Yang Wuyang also followed the footsteps of the cavalry into the Heling army formation, and the Heling army, which had become panicked and gradually unorganized, was like a wolf entering the flock of sheep, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere it passed.

The Heling army was in a state of confusion, and there was no battle formation at all, and it was even more chaotic at the moment, and more than 15,000 people were at a loss like panicked lambs, so angry that the Heling monarchs and ministers on the north side jumped to their feet and scolded.

King Heling passed orders one after another, ordering the soldiers and horses behind the formation to immediately turn around the battlefield and attack on the flank of the Tang army, but in the chaos, the generals could not organize their own soldiers in a mess. The dense soldiers crowded and pushed each other in order to avoid the onslaught of the Tang cavalry, and even the soldiers and horses that were finally organized would be quickly scattered by the chaotic soldiers.

Wei Chi followed Yu as the first soldier, all the way to shout and chop, his clothes and armor were dyed red, and his hideous face was matched with blood armor when he crossed the erhu fight, and he was even more fierce and lovely, and the place where he passed frightened the Heling army like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and retreated sharply.

Within two moments, Wei Chi Xunyu led the cavalry to split the Heling army formation into two parts, and the cavalry was also divided into two directions to outflank each other, and then the infantry led by Yang Wuyang was also divided into two to attack the enemy on both sides of the north and south, directly stunned the Heling army, which was overwhelming.

King Heling originally wanted to lead his troops and horses to support, but a battalion of Tang army foot soldiers crossed the small river ditch with the arrows of the Heling army and climbed to the opposite bank to directly attack the place where the honor guard of King Heling was.

In the face of the Tang army, except for a few generals with leather armor, most of the soldiers and the unarmored Heling army failed to give full play to their geographical advantage of occupying the west bank of the ditch to block the attacking Tang army in the ditch, but let the Tang army with sharp armor rush to the opposite bank.

The soldiers of the Tang Army, who knew that they were killed by their governor Chi Xunyu today, rushed into the Heling army to fight with one as ten, forgetting their lives and forgetting their lives, and fought desperately without fear of death.

King Heling hurriedly ordered all his troops to come and block the Tang army that was attacking him, and an arrow shot right in his thigh from nowhere.

King Heling screamed and fell to the ground, and the surrounding Heling troops saw the king fall to the ground but did not know his life and death, and the army was in turmoil, and gradually lost the will to fight.

Seeing this, the captain of the Tang Military Academy immediately shouted loudly: "King Heling is dead...... and the rest of the soldiers heard this, and hurriedly joined the ranks of the roarers.

Although the Heling army could not understand Chinese, it can be seen that the morale of the Tang army suddenly rose, and the offensive was even more rapid, but the king of his own side was nowhere to be seen, and it was estimated that there was no battle. The army guarding the honor guard of the monarch and the ministers of his country was the first to break and flee after the Tang army roared, and then the chain reaction was affected.

The Heling army, which was passively beaten under the impact of the Tang cavalry on the south side and was difficult to maintain the situation, saw that the troops guarding the king on the north side had broken and fled, and they joined the ranks of the rout.

Suddenly, the Heling army was defeated on all fronts, and nearly 20,000 people fled to the southwest city of Yogyakarta in panic, trying to enter the city and defend the city.

Wei Chi Xunyu suffered more than a dozen wounds in the first battle, and the four hundred elite cavalry lost a quarter, and the infantry was not a few killed and wounded.

How could the victory achieved in the land of death make the Heling army retreat to the city and defend it?

Even if only one-third of the Heling army is allowed to retreat to the city, it will not be able to defeat Yogyakarta City with only the remaining more than 1,000 people, and the entire army will be wiped out here.

"Quick, the whole army should chase after the poor and take the city of Yogyakarta with the governor of Pontus in one fell swoop......"

Wei Chi Xunyu roared like thunder in the noisy battlefield, ordered the whole army to pursue, and followed the defeated army of Heling all the way to cover up and kill without giving the other party a chance to regroup.

The king of Heling was supported by his guards and fled with the rout soldiers all over the mountains, and what he saw in front of him made him heartbroken, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and cry out: "My 20,000 army, why is it so tragic to be defeated by the hands of 2,000 Tang troops?" ”

Seeing that the Tang cavalry caught up, they slaughtered the defeated army of Heling all the way like chopping melons and vegetables, and the target was the large group of people and horses surrounding King Heling.

King Heling suddenly felt bad, with more than 100 people around him, he was not the opponent of more than 20 Tang cavalry who had been killed, and he summoned more soldiers and horses, but he only knew that he would flee for his life and did not listen to the call at all.

King Heling, who had become the target of the Tang cavalry because of the excessive number of soldiers and horses around him, hurriedly waved away the more than 100 personal guards around him, and four or five people drove him away from the brigade and ran into the mountains and forests on the north side, avoiding the pursuit of the Tang cavalry.

The Tang army followed the defeated army all the way to Yogyakarta, and the Heling army that retreated to the city was crowded due to too many routs, and it was too late to close the city gate when the Tang army attacked.

In this way, the city of Yogyakarta, which had been run by the king of Heling, let Wei Chi follow Yu down the day, beheaded more than 2,000 people, captured more than 7,000 people, and more than 10,000 Heling troops were scattered in the mountains and jungles around Yogyakarta City.

King Heling sighed at Wangcheng, gathered more than 3,000 defeated soldiers and retreated to the valley at the foot of the Songbin Volcano on the north side of Yogyakarta City and the west side of the Sundola Volcano Mountain to recuperate, and recruited soldiers and horses who were unwilling to surrender to the Tang Dynasty to gather in an attempt to counterattack Yogyakarta.

After seizing the city of Yogyakarta, Wei Chi followed the Yu army to plunder for three days, looting the city of Yogyakarta and the surrounding Heling people's walled city, seizing countless gold and silver property, and piling up a mountain of grain. plundered more than 1,000 young and beautiful women in Heling who met the requirements, and just sent a female slave to each of the soldiers.

Wei Chi Xunyu also trained 2,000 servants from the captives, and only issued simple one-man high spears to cooperate with the Tang army to exercise control over the local area, and bloody suppression of the Heling people who resisted and disobeyed.

In order to let this servant army completely surrender to the Tang army and not give birth to two hearts, Wei Chi Xunyu specially asked them to execute the dissatisfied Heling people in front of tens of thousands of Heling people, forcing them to commit crimes against the Heling people.

As a result, the notoriety of this servant army far exceeds what the Tang army did.

The news of Wei Chi Xunyu's capture of Yogyakarta and the destruction of the Heling Kingdom reached the camp of Li Wenchang and Li Yexu's allied army in the west of Semarang in later generations.

The faces of the generals of the two governor's mansions who were picked peaches were extremely gloomy, and many hot-tempered generals even scolded them.

Thinking that they gathered 8,000 foot cavalry in Dianzhou and Puluo, they traveled nearly 1,000 miles in half a month, and fought more than 30 battles with Xunren and Heling people along the way, beheading more than 30,000 people and killing and wounding nearly 1,000.

As a result, the fat in the mouth was robbed by the Bo Ni Governor's Mansion.
