Chapter 589: Kill Him and Scatter His Soul

Baizhangping is flat, but it is also relative to the steep Ganting Ridge, the terrain here is relatively high, and in addition to some rocks, Xue Rengui not only prepared a coffin for Gao Yanshou, but also prepared a generous gift. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

That's the catapult.

Although the earliest rudimentary versions of catapults such as the Thunderbolt have appeared since Cao Cao's meeting, after hundreds of years of improvement, the catapult can fully optimize the shortcomings of the Thunderbolt countless times in terms of range and operability. Xue Rengui couldn't make an unusually gorgeous catapult in a hurry, but the simple version still made a few ones.

After a little test, Xue Rengui led people to set up five commanding heights and bunkers.

If placed in a high place, the effect of the trebuchet can be maximized.

A bunker on the commanding heights was built, and the soldiers who were stationed at the sentry used it as a patrol point.

Ascending to the heights and looking into the distance, those Goguryeo people who wanted to be caught off guard lost their wishful thinking.

In the afternoon, the soldiers who stood on the bunker and took turns guarding soon discovered the arrival of the Goguryeo soldiers, in order to hurry, in order to deter the purpose of "Eulji Wende", Gao Yanshou made a bloody investment and pulled out all the cavalry he relied on the most.

"Oh, it's finally here. After preparing for one night, if you don't come back, you can't guarantee secrecy. Listening to the soldier's report, Xue Rengui nodded as a matter of course. And let the herald give the order to prepare for battle.

Going to fight?

The various departments that were waiting for the banner with their ears pricked up and staring at their eyes, as soon as they saw the banner from the heights, they couldn't help but get excited, and after working hard all night, they were finally able to fight for the country.

The Tiger Ben Army and the Loyal and Righteous Army are the strongest of the strong, and they have the most persistent fighting blood flowing in them, and they can finally be completely stimulated.

"Let everyone prepare, it's time to reap the fruits of the battle." Xue Rengui patted his shirt, casually carried the Tang knife of hand-to-hand combat, and looked at the enemy troops slowly marching outside Baizhangping.

"Yes! General Xue! Xue Rengui's side of the more than a dozen Tiger Ben military captains straightened up.

In the city is a one-sided massacre. But it didn't make them enjoyable, and this time the cavalry of nearly 4,000 was the real enjoyable battle.

As for the results. After countless trainings, the word failure has long been absent from their beliefs.

Dying on the battlefield or returning triumphantly, they will not tolerate any defeat.

Unlike before, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army who fought head-on were not only equipped with equipment for fighting on foot, but also carried a wooden round shield in their left hand. This was also a new tactic that Qin Feng thought of specifically for the soldiers and terrain of Goguryeo.

Four thousand cavalry crisscrossed the plains barren by the change of seasons, and the aura of slaughter soared into the sky.

Although Gao Yanshou looked down on Ezhi Wende, who was born as a civilian, he admired Ezhi Wende's military talent very much, and he was conceited, which did not mean that he was a fool. The closer he got to the enemy, the more cautious he became, and although he was very familiar with the terrain, whenever he came to a dangerous terrain, he sent his men who were good at climbing to search in all directions, and only when he found that there was no one left, did he feel confident and bold to continue the march.

Gantingling was the most dangerous place on the way, and he sent a large number of soldiers to search for a long time before marching.

There was no danger to pass through the Ganting Ridge, and the whole army breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon after, they entered Baizhangping, and a seemingly dangerous mountain area appeared in front of the Tibetan army.

Baizhangping has been artificially excavated, the mountain road is wide, and the army can operate, but it is surrounded by lush forests and can hide soldiers.

Gao Yanshou did not stop this time, but directly ordered to march!

If they stop and waste time in such a place, it will take at least another day to surprise the enemy, so that it is difficult to ensure that the other party will not notice.

Gao Yanshou's lieutenant wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, there were so many dangerous enemy troops in front of him who had not set up ambushes, how could they set up an ambush in such a not so dangerous place, so he didn't speak again.

Seeing that the Goguryeo army was unguarded and entered the ambush circle one after another.

The Tang army, who had their armor tied, bit the branches that prevented the sound in their mouths one by one, and entered the predetermined ambush site to hide.

There was still a moment before the arrival of the Goguryeo army, and the net had already been opened, just waiting for the prey to come in by itself.

After all the enemies entered the urn, Xue Rengui saw the banner from the northeast.

This man's banner means that all the enemies have entered the urn, and there is not a single person left.

In an instant, a wave of excitement and excitement welled up in Xue Rengui's heart: Gao Yanshou finally took the bait!

Xue Rengui played what he learned from Qin Feng's special emphasis and teaching of psychological tactics, and he gave up countless dangerous places that were convenient for hiding troops, the purpose of which was to give Gao Yanshou an illusion, making him feel that stopping and searching was just a waste of time, but would make his opponent aware of it, and once the opponent found out, it would cause him to return in vain this action.

In the face of Baizhangping, which is relatively not a dangerous place, Gao Yanshou naturally won't waste time stopping and searching.

didn't know that this was exactly what Xue Rengui's clever plan was.

Seeing the Tubo army gradually appearing in front of them, Xue Rengui and the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time had their blood veins boiling, and the blood rushed to their cheeks and the top of their heads, and their hearts touched, touched, touched...... It was as if it was about to pop out of the cavity.

The leaves swayed in the breeze, and there was a "rustling" sound, and Goguryeo marched rapidly, not caring if there were ambushes on the left and right.

Looking at the Goguryeo army that was being walked into the urn step by step, the anxiety in Xue Rengui's heart is difficult to describe with pen and ink: he only feels that time is too slow.

glanced left and right, and saw that the others were also like him, and one by one they also showed a nervous and excited look

At this decisive moment, no one can avoid such a feeling.

With the strong sunlight shining through the cracks in the treetops, and listening to the chirping of birds in the thick green shade, who would have thought that in a few moments, such a peaceful and beautiful forest would be transformed into a battlefield of flesh and blood?

"Ready, throw the catapult at once!"

As the supreme commander, after Xue Rengui gave the order, a terrible sound of arrows, as the sound of transmission, was clearly conveyed to every secret post.

"Bump! Touch! Touch! Touch! ......”

The previous poignant sound had already made Gao Yanshou's heartstrings tense, and this low sound seemed to be even more terrifying, but he had no time to give any instructions, and his words seemed a little pale at this time.

Soon the rapidly falling shadows in the sky confirmed the uneasy thoughts in his heart.

"Oh no, spread it all!"

Stone! The shadow was nothing else, it was a huge rock.

If it really falls on the body, no matter how strong the force is, it will be difficult to escape the end of death, after all, no matter how strong they are, they are still people, not invulnerable immortals.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast the horses galloped, they could not scatter in a short period of time, and the first round of falling rocks really hit the scattered horse team of the Goguryeo cavalry.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ......”

Falling rocks bring more than just a dull hard blow.

The most terrible thing is not the whole stone, but the "shrapnel" produced by the broken stone after it has been shot down to hard ground.

For a time, the rubble was flying all over the sky, coupled with the wailing of the wounded lying on the ground, and the hearts of all the Goguryeo cavalry were covered with an unknown terror.

What is the most terrible thing for man, obviously the unknown is the most terrible thing.

The stone that fell from the sky was able to bring such an effect, even if they saw their former brothers wailing on the ground, looking at themselves with longing eyes, no one dared to step forward, and they hoped that they would be able to walk off the battlefield alive.

Such mental torture made an iron-blooded army almost collapse in a short period of time.

If you think that the terrible falling rock, only once, is completely wrong.

The first round of falling rocks, mixed with the power of gravel, knocked the Goguryeo people out of measure.

And the second round was a simple falling rock, and even then it brought enough deterrence.

Immediately after that, there was the third and fourth rounds.

This situation lasted for about a stick of incense, and the falling stone henge stopped, of course, there were still some soldiers who were still knocking on the surrounding rocks, preparing to surprise the Goguryeo cavalry again.

Four thousand cavalry!

When they set out, they were so heroic and arrogant like them, and they rarely lost a single defeat all year round, but now they have lost nearly a thousand troops before they even see the shadow of the other party.

Heavy casualties! This is not the most terrible word, for the Goguryeo people, the most terrible thing is the psychological defense line that is gradually crumbling, and some people have already come up with the idea of escaping.

"Ahh

Finally, someone couldn't help but shout. The crazy horses retreated, wanting to escape back to the original way, but death can no longer enjoy the glory and wealth of the world, and they are accustomed to a comfortable life, and they do not want to die.

But before he could rush far, a feathered arrow pierced the back of his head, and the person who shot the arrow was none other than Gao Yanshou, the leader of the entire team.

"Death to those who retreat! I Goguryeo have no weak waste, you are all warriors of Goguryeo, give me the blood of the enemy. Honour the memory of those who died. Rush! Rush! Rush! ”

Waving his arms, Gao Yanshou's eyes were red and he waved his arms wildly.

Military orders are like mountains, and if you don't obey, you will die. No one wants to die. The words of high longevity are also to a certain extent. stimulated the blood in their bodies, and the teams that were scattered for a while once again had a tendency to converge.

Rush! Just charge through it like this. With the strength of their cavalry, they will definitely be able to terrify the enemy.

Seeing that the Goguryeo cavalry had a look of color again, Xue Rengui also made the decision to charge.

That's right, it's to use infantry to shock the cavalry formation.

1,000 infantry versus more than 3,000 cavalry, it seems that the balance of odds has not changed because of the previous attrition, but all the soldiers of the Tiger Army believe that the winner will only be them.

The tiger is a strong army, the sword of the country, overcoming thorns and thorns, invincible, such a belief has long been deeply rooted in their hearts.
