Chapter 17 III. Fierce Warfare
Xue Boren rushed to the front of the team. The broadsword he wielded in his hand was already stained with the blood of the Goryeo soldiers, and each swing would spill a line of blood, while causing more bloodshed. Originally, Xue Boren was not the type of fierce general who took the lead, but this time it was different, the key to the success or failure of this battle was to quickly capture Hushou Mountain, so Xue Boren played a jaw-dropping bravery, leading the team all the way to the foot of Hushou Mountain, and even Wang Hanxin and Gao Dingbian failed to run in front of him.
Xue Boren had observed the mountain situation of Hushou Mountain for a few days before, but he couldn't see it really because it was too far away. Now he looked closely, identified some of the most important places, and shouted, "Follow me!" Aggro! ”
Before the words fell, Xue Boren had already ridden his horse and rushed towards the mountain. Wang Hanxin, who followed closely, sighed: "It's the first time I've seen adults working so hard." ”
"The situation is urgent, you still have the mind to talk nonsense!" Gao Ding on the side reprimanded.
As soon as Wang Hanxin was about to fight back, he heard Xue Boren shouting in front of him: "Wang Hanxin listens to the order!" I ordered you to lead 500 troops to capture the stronghold at the foot of the mountain on the right, and there must be no mistake! If you are shot with a bow and arrow from there, half of our army will be killed or wounded! ”
"Order! Leave it to me. Wang Hanxin looked at the stronghold, and then shouted, "Brothers, come with me!" Give me the strength to feed! Hack those bunnies to death and we'll be safe! ”
"Watch out for the enemy's bows and arrows!" Gao Dingbian shouted loudly.
"No problem, whoever dares to shoot me will throw him down the mountain!" Wang Hanxin replied.
"This bastard." Gao Ding smiled and flew out with the head of a Korean soldier attached to his helmet.
The mountain road became more and more steep, and if it weren't for the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Battalion, they would not have been able to continue riding. Gao Dingbian saw that Wang Hanxin's attack was not going well, so he said, "My lord! I'm going to help him. ”
"No, you don't! The enemy army was attacked by us and had no time to mobilize his forces, and if he could not even complete this little thing, then he could not expect anything! See! There is a dangerous checkpoint on the top of the hill ahead, which is even more difficult to capture, I want you to lead a thousand men to take this place down, I will capture the small slope diagonally opposite it, and from there support your attack! ”
"Understood, sir!" Gao Dingbian lifted his spirits and led the people towards that level. Gao Dingbian clamped his legs, and the black horse galloped out like arrows, dodging a row of bows and arrows of the Goryeo army, and the two soldiers behind him were not so lucky and fell to the ground.
Gao Dingbian did not dare to stop, and urged his horse to rush forward, and before the enemy could shoot a second wave of bows and arrows, his spear had already pierced the throats of seven enemy soldiers. The stormy spearmanship discouraged every Goryeo soldier he saw, and Gao Dingbian had no intention of killing, his goal was to take control of the level. The mountain road at that checkpoint was so steep that only one horse could pass through, and at the same time as he rode up, three Goryeo soldiers condescended and slashed at him! Gao Dingbian jumped up, jumped up, the three soldiers pounced, just a moment of hesitation, Gao Dingbian's gun had pierced one person's chest, and at the same time free his right hand drew a sword to cut the carotid artery of the second person, and kicked the third person out with flying legs before landing. As soon as he landed, an arrow flew over, Gao Dingbian swung his sword to pull the arrow away, his left pistol stabbed out, pierced the soldier who was kicked away, and then threw the sword in his hand, hitting the archer in the chest, at the same time, Gao Dingbian had already danced his spear, and fought with dozens of Goryeo soldiers around him.
Between these lightning and flint moves, the Goryeo soldiers saw that this person was not something they could deal with, so they dodged one after another, refusing to fight head-on on the Gaoding side, and turned to block the entrance of the checkpoint. Gao Dingbian killed back and forth several times, each time he could only cover one friendly soldier to come up, and by the time the seventh man came up, four people had already died in battle.
At that moment, a figure flashed from below, and the man swung his twin knives and rolled around like a ball, slashing the enemy troops around him to pieces. Gao Dingbian could see that it was his brother Wang Hanxin.
"You've finally got the following done, it's too slow."
Wang Han's novice was busy non-stop, and his mouth was not idle: "Without my help, how can you succeed so easily!" Big brother, you can rush and kill, I'll guard here! ”
"Then please, don't be hacked to death!" Gao Ding said as he swung his spear and killed the Goryeo army.
"Phew! Who dares to cut me? It's against him," Wang Hanxin cursed in his mouth, the knife in his hand constantly pulling away the arrows fired by the enemy, and at the same time cutting down the attacking enemy soldiers to the ground.
"There's too little space here, so everyone gets off their horses and fights on foot! Someone who came up! Cover each other with shields, besiege the city in a circle, and then slowly expand outward, who dares to attack indiscriminately without my order, I will cut off his head first! ”
"Attention to the top! Don't think there are no bows and arrows on top! Squat down for me! ”
Wang Hanxin gave orders while fighting, and the soldiers who rushed up acted according to the orders, and it didn't take long for more than 30 people to gather at the entrance.
"Now in groups of five, cover each other's front! Leave twenty people behind to protect those who come up behind! ”
After a long fierce battle, Xue Boren finally rushed to the small slope opposite, and after the rain of arrows shot from there suppressed the Goryeo soldiers, the troops behind were able to enter in a steady stream. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Goryeo army began to retreat.
The trio reunited after a fierce battle. Xue Boren nodded approvingly: "Good job!" Further up is the main peak, this section will be more difficult to attack, and the horses will not be able to go up, you must be prepared for a fierce battle. ”
Wang Hanxin was tired enough, and he wiped his sweat and said, "My lord, don't you think it's strange? This is where the flag of the Goryeo army is located, but we have attacked for half a day, and we have not encountered a single enemy general, will they stay on the top of the mountain and wait for us to fight? ”
Before the words fell, a soldier suddenly ran over in a panic: "Three adults! The enemy has cut off the way down the mountain! We are surrounded from the bottom of the mountain and the east side of the mountain road! ”
