Chapter 346: The Gangyong Army vs. the Goryeo Army
Seeing that Chao Gai stabbed the enemy general to death, and after winning the victory, all the soldiers of the Gangyong Army were greatly boosted and cheered for Chao Gai in succession. At the same time, Na Chao Gai also held his spear high and flaunted his might in front of the two armies.
After seeing that the Song army, which had always been weak, was so brave, the Goryeo Marquis, who was far away on the city wall, was shocked. At the same time, I saw that in the Goryeo army, there was still a general who was not convinced, first shouted in the incomprehensible Goryeo dialect, and then rode out on horseback.
Seeing that there were Goryeo soldiers rushing out of the battle, Na Chao Gai wanted to continue to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, but at this time, he heard someone in the formation shouting, "General Chao, please take a break, this time the thief will give it to the last general!" ”
After hearing this, Chao Gai looked back, and saw that the person who spoke was Shi Wengong's apprentice 'Sai Rengui' Guo Sheng. Seeing Guo Sheng's invitation to the battle, Chao Gai would not refute his intentions, and then he only smiled heartily, then rode back to the battle, and handed Guo Sheng an encouraging look on the road, and Guo Sheng also smiled back after seeing it.
After a few breaths, he saw that Guo Sheng rode his horse and galloped to the front of the two armies, and fought with the general.
This Guo Sheng has been practicing martial arts day and night since he apprenticed with Lu Fang Shi Wengong, for fear of falling into the prestige of his master, and now, he also wants to use the battle to kill the enemy to justify his name.
Although the general wanted to avenge his comrades-in-arms, when he felt Guo Sheng's indomitable fighting spirit, he was horrified, and the two fought for only seventeen or eighteen rounds, and the general was beaten by Guo Sheng in a hurry and couldn't deal with it.
Seeing such a scene in the field, the last Goryeo general feared that his own people would be lost, so he hurriedly ordered the whole army to charge and rescue his companions.
How could Su Ding let the opposing enemy general obey his mind, only to see that while ordering a charge on the opposite side, he also held high the iron boring, and then shouted, "The whole army is attacking!" Then he led the 20,000 brave soldiers to march forward bravely and fought with the Goryeo army on the opposite side.
At the time of the fight between the two armies, I saw that Guo Sheng was not affected by the surrounding environment at all, refused to give up the opponent, and finally got his wish, and cut the opponent's throat with a halberd in the chaotic army.
I saw that the general instantly splattered blood in all directions, and his life was extinct. At this time, the last Goryeo general saw this situation, and his heart was furious, and he immediately rushed towards Guo Sheng, who had just killed an enemy general at this time, but did not notice the impending danger behind him.
In the blink of an eye, I saw that the long knife of the Goryeo general arrived in an instant. However, just as the long knife in his hand was about to fall on Guo Sheng's neck, a giant man and a mountain-opening double-edged axe appeared out of thin air, holding his long knife against the air.
This giant who suddenly appeared was naturally Guo Sheng's lieutenant, the 'Dangerous Dao God' Yu Baosi. Since this Yu Baosi followed Su Ding's army and rushed forward, he has always paid attention to the safety of the main general Guo Sheng.
When he saw that the Goryeo general wanted to attack Guo Sheng, he didn't say a word, rushed forward with the big axe, and saved Guo Sheng at a critical time.
Guo Sheng was very excited when he saw Yu Baosi save him, and then the two joined forces, but they killed the last general in just a few breaths. Subsequently, I only heard Guo Sheng gratefully, "Fourth brother, thank you!" ”
It turned out that Guo Sheng and Yu Baosi were Shi Wengong's apprentices, and the other was Shi Wengong's former head of the guard, both of whom were close to Shi Wengong, and they had a very good relationship with each other. In private, the two are mostly called brothers, but they are not the leaders of the generals.
After hearing Guo Sheng's thanks, Yu Baosi smiled and said, "Haha, it's okay, it's a trivial matter, no need to worry about it." Then, the two of them joined forces, one left and one right, one high and one low, to fight their way out of this chaotic army, leading the brave army forward.
After seeing that these Goryeo guards in his city were so weak that they couldn't stop the pace of the brave army outside the city, the Goryeo Marquis was furious. At this time, when he saw that the brave army under the city was about to enter along the city gate, he was shocked, and shouted loudly, "Close the city gate quickly!" ”
The guards of the city gate were all cowardly people, and after hearing such an order from the commander, they did not think about it, and closed the city gate on the spot, but the remaining thousands of Goryeo soldiers were ruthlessly left outside the city, exerting their last residual heat and contributing their last strength to the city.
At this time, looking at the tightly closed city gate, the Goryeo soldiers who had been killed for a long time rushed to the rear in panic, and many people gave up resistance, only lying on the gate and begging to open the gate and let themselves into the city.
But no one answered them, and the gates that had been closed would not be opened again at their pleas.
At the same time, I saw Su Ding leading a group of soldiers to take advantage of the chaos of these Goryeo soldiers to fight wantonly and expand the results of the battle. Among them, Chao Gai and others, who rushed to the city quickly, brandished the spears in their hands, and wantonly stabbed the Goryeo generals who were lying on the city gate.
The whole battle collapsed in an instant, and after a short time, I saw that Wu Yong marched into the formation under Shi Luo's escort, and ordered Shi Luo to shout to everyone in Goryeo, "Put down your weapons, and those who surrender will not be killed!" ”
Hearing the voices of their compatriots again, the Goryeo generals were overjoyed, and immediately threw away their weapons without thinking about it, and surrendered to the Gangyong army. Su Ding, who was also very satisfied with the army, took them into account and rectified, and took them out of the battlefield and went to camp five miles outside the city.
After counting, the Gangyong army killed a total of 4,600 enemies and surrendered 5,400 Goryeo troops, including 3,800 usable soldiers. On the other hand, they lost 730 men, 240 seriously wounded, and 350 lightly wounded.
Although the battle loss ratio was still superior, it was also the largest number of casualties since the Gang Yong army sent troops, and it was only a battle outside the city, but it did not capture the city of Tokyo.
Now that the Marquis of Goryeo, knowing the strength of his brave army, he will definitely close the four gates, and dare not go out of the city to meet the battle easily. As a result, it was even more difficult to take the city.
But fortunately, after this battle, the city also lost half of its troops, and such a ruthless act by the Marquis of Goryeo will definitely disappoint the soldiers in the city. As long as Su Ding and the others continue to surround this Tokyo city and put pressure on it, I believe that within a month, this city will be broken.
Su Ding led the brave army to confront the soldiers in the city outside the city, while Wu Yong, accompanied by Shi Luo, exerted care and favor to the surrendered Goryeo soldiers, and probed the weaknesses of the city from the side step by step, and finally got the information he wanted.
