Chapter Seventy-Six: Directly Defeat the Enemy's Commander
"Kill! It is also said that the army of 50,000 looks so vulnerable, and the combat strength of this Goguryeo army is really poor. Lin Cheng, who was beside Li Xian, said with a smile while stabbing to death a Goguryeo soldier who tried to rush up.
But after listening to what he said, Li Xian, Xue Ne, and Cheng Yanjin all changed their faces, glanced at each other, and then said loudly: "It's not good." ”
"What's wrong?" Lin Cheng only cared about killing the enemy, and didn't pay any attention to the changes in the expressions of the three of them, so he asked casually.
But I heard Li Xian say: "Did Lin Dianjun find that the enemy army is getting fewer and fewer?" Why is this so? ”
"This ......" Lin Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Maybe the enemy has suffered too many battle losses and can't afford to launch another large-scale attack, right?" ”
"The army said that the battle had only been going on for less than half an hour, and how much could the enemy lose? Eight thousand? Ten thousand? Or twenty thousand? Li Xian asked as he ordered the soldiers to be gathered.
"There shouldn't be so many, with the combat strength of our army, I'm afraid that the enemy's loss of three thousand will be difficult to ......" Thinking of this, Lin Cheng suddenly realized that his previous judgment was really wrong, so he continued: "In this way, did the enemy see that our army was prepared and prepared to withdraw?" ”
"Hehe, this is even more impossible, since the enemy army is prepared, they must know the reality in the city, it has only been half an hour, although our army has made the enemy pay a lot of price, but it is not enough to shake its foundation, not to mention that our army has also caused a loss of nearly a thousand people, how can the enemy withdraw when it has the advantage?" Li Xian saw that Cheng Yanjin on the side also nodded silently, so he knew that he had guessed correctly, gently wiped the spear, and then anxiously urged the soldiers to gather immediately.
"Then according to the king, could it be that the enemy army has found a breakthrough and deliberately confuses us with a small number of troops?" Lin Cheng was not too stupid, and immediately understood Li Xian's worries, and his face couldn't help but change, and he spoke.
"That's true, this king went around the city wall earlier, and found that there was a broken wall not far from the south of the city, and it was surrounded by a wooden fence, and it must be here that the breakthrough of the thief army was here." When Li Xian said this, when he saw that all the soldiers had been assembled, he no longer said to Lin Chengduo, but shouted loudly: "All the soldiers obey the order and kill the enemy with this king, and the target is the wooden fence not far south of the city." ”
"Kill!" The soldiers had all seen Li Xian's bravery, and now when they saw Li Xian rushing over with a prancing horse, they all let out a loud roar and followed Li Xian to the battlefield.
And at this time at the wooden fence.
"Why hasn't General Gao's reinforcements arrived?" The defending general Zhang Deyu was worried, because the enemy's offensive momentum was very fierce, and within a moment, thousands of soldiers around him were killed and wounded, and there was almost no one to fight.
"General Tang, surrender. The general could have spared a dog's life, and if he resisted, these sergeants would have been killed. A Goguryeo general saw that Zhang Deyu refused to surrender, although he didn't even have a weapon in his hand, but he was still standing at the wooden fence, but he also had some courage, so he laughed wildly and said, trying to humiliate the other party and have fun, anyway, his task is completed, and the new city is about to be broken, so he is not in a hurry at this time.
But he never thought that Zhang Deyu shouted loudly: "The thief will not think, the head of the general can be broken, the blood can be shed, but the backbone cannot be lost, I, Zhang Deyu, was born as a Tang Dynasty and died as a Tang ghost, how can I bend my knees and surrender to Hu Lu?" ”
The general wanted to humiliate Zhang Deyu, but he was humiliated by the other party for a while, and he was immediately furious, pointing at the other party and shouting: "The thief Tang Man, dare to be so ignorant, even so, he will become Quaner, let Er go to Jiuquan to be a Tang ghost." ”
After finishing speaking, the general raised his scimitar and slashed at Zhang Deyu with all his might.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, only a sharp sound of breaking the air was heard, and before the general could react, he felt a pain in his throat, and then spurted out a large mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground softly, seeing that he was not alive.
"Huh? General Mosadore died. ”
"Xue, Xue Manzi."
"Run." When those Goguryeo soldiers saw that the lord was about to be shot through the throat with an arrow and died, they immediately thought of Xue Rengui, the Tang general who was threatening Goguryeo, and they were immediately frightened and retreated one after another.
Zhang Deyu originally thought that he would not be spared this time, but he didn't expect to be rescued from a desperate situation, and he was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and he heard the enemy soldiers shouting "Xue Manzi" and thought that Xue Rengui was leading the army to come, but when he looked at it, where was there Xue Rengui was only a team of about 500 people, and the leader was a young general, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed, because with this little man, it was impossible to resist the attack of tens of thousands of enemy troops.
At this moment, he heard a member of the general next to him say to him: "This general is also a tough guy, I don't know who his surname is?" Would you like to go into battle with this king to kill the enemy? ”
"It turned out to be King Zhou!" When Zhang Deyu heard this, he realized that the person who came turned out to be the famous Zhou King Li Xian, no wonder he was so brave that he shot the enemy general to death with one arrow.
Thinking of this, Zhang Deyu suddenly laughed and said: "The last general, Zhang Deyu, has heard the name of King Zhou for a long time, and the life of the last general was picked up, and it is really the wish of his life to be able to go into battle with the king to kill the enemy today." ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Deyu picked up the spear left by the Goguryeo general when he died, rode the war horse left by the general, followed closely behind Li Xian, and rushed forward with pride, stabbing the enemy with all his might, and humiliating him with snow.
"Soldiers, kill thieves for me to serve the country, just today, kill it." Li Xian rode the purple horse, roared loudly, and first stabbed to death an enemy general who tried to plot against him, and left fifty soldiers behind to be responsible for beating the drums, and then he rushed around with confidence.
Seeing that Li Xian was so brave, the soldiers under his command also mustered up the strength of their lives, fought bravely to kill the enemy, and did not dare to lag behind, Xue Ne, Lin Cheng, Zhang Deyu and others were even more desperate to kill the enemy, and even the veteran Cheng Yanjin also danced a big knife and killed an enemy who dared to approach on the spot.
Although the army led by Li Xian was only 500 people, everyone fought bravely and was full of murderous spirit, and Li Xian took the lead before, killing the enemy general with an arrow, and the morale of the enemy army was robbed, causing the enemy camp to start rioting.
"What are you all worried about? Don't panic, don't panic, the enemy army is only a few hundred, and it's not a problem. Chi Shouxin, the chief general of the Goguryeo army, was also shocked when he saw the sudden riot in the front, but after all, he was a general, and he was familiar with the reality of the Tang army in the city, so it was expected that the Tang army was also bluffing, and its men and horses would not be too many, so he immediately shouted loudly.
But this is in the midst of the chaos, no matter how loud Chi Shouxin's voice is, how many people can hear it? What's more, this is at night, although the moonlight is also very bright, maybe the visibility is not as good as during the day after all, the Goguryeo army only heard the sound of shouting and killing, plus the drums of the Tang army behind the formation, how do you know how many people and horses? It was also thought that he had fallen for the Tang Army's plan, and fled in all directions to save his life.
For a while, I saw the Goguryeo army killing each other, people trampling on horses, screaming again and again, I don't know how many people died in the chaos?
Chi Shouxin was furious when he saw this, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to kill several soldiers who tried to escape, so that the surrounding chaos was calmed down a little, and under the compulsion of the main general, these soldiers began to reorganize their ranks, lined up, and tried to confront the Tang army.
But how could Chi Shouxin's actions be concealed from Li Xian, who had extraordinary eyesight? From the very beginning of the battle, Li Xian's eyes were aimed at the enemy's main general, but because the enemy's formation was still neat, it was difficult to break through for a while, so he slowed down, first rushed into the enemy's formation with the whole army, causing confusion among the enemy's entire army, and then rushed in the direction where the enemy was located.
"Hmph, when you are looking for death, you dare to rush my Chinese army!" Chi Shouxin saw that the Tang army was so rampant, and he didn't pay attention to these sergeants under his command at all, so he immediately ordered the elite Chinese army teams around him to intercept it, and ordered his own soldiers on the left and right to shout in unison: "Brothers, when the Tang thief killed my compatriots and destroyed my homeland, it was difficult for us to return home, and now the Tang thief is in front of us, and the time for us to take revenge is coming." ”
It turned out that this Chi Shouxin was originally a general of Baekje, leading his troops to defend Rencun City, but later the city was broken by the Baekje people who had just surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and he had no choice but to abandon his wife, led the remnants of the defeated army to flee to Goguryeo, and since then he has become a general of Goguryeo, and later their wives were all killed, and they hated the Tang army, always thinking that one day they could take revenge.
When the Baekje soldiers under Chi Shouxin's command heard the shout, they gritted their teeth and doubled their courage, and immediately assembled and lined up, holding their spears, while slashing the fleeing Goguryeo soldiers, while struggling forward to meet the Tang army.
"Hehe, it looks a bit imposing, but it's still not enough, after all, most of the enemy army is breaking and fleeing, only this little force to meet the battle, this king is not in his eyes, brothers, kill with this king, see what this enemy will be capable of?"
Li Xian urged the horse to hold the gun, and the first one rushed forward, and the spear in his hand stabbed out with lightning speed, and immediately pierced the throat of an enemy soldier, only to see the soldier spurting blood from his throat, falling to the ground in pain, and dying before he could even struggle.
"Kill!" Xue Ne, Cheng Yanjin, Lin Cheng and others followed closely, and the army composed of 500 war horses was like a torrent of steel, dividing the enemy's seemingly well-organized military formation into two halves, and then Li Xian and Xue Ne were the main ones respectively, and the two halves of the enemy army were slaughtered.
Li Xian's goal did not change in any way, he was still aimed at the enemy's main general, and the 200 soldiers led by him were like a sharp knife, stabbing straight at the core of Chi Shouxin.
"Enemy general, take your life." Li Xian's face was splashed with the blood of the killed enemy, and the whole person looked even more hideous and terrifying, and when he came to Chi Shouxin's two hundred steps, he roared loudly, rode with a gun, and rushed straight over.
"Bold." Chi Shouxin had eight personal guards around him, all of whom were extraordinary in martial arts, even if they were stronger than ordinary generals, and now when they saw Li Xian rushing over single-handedly, they were all furious, and immediately roared forward, ready to surround Li Xian and die on the spot.
