Liu Chengmin gritted his teeth, fired three arrows in his hand, and went straight to the Sui crossbowmen on the opposite side, and the three crossbowmen were almost all arrows in the critical positions of their foreheads, and they didn't scream, so they threw the crossbow arrows in their hands and fell on their backs.

The Goguryeo archers gave this crossbow arrow, and also shot down more than 100 people, some of them knocked over the torches when they fell, and flames began to rise in some places, and the ranks of the archers also fell into a small panic, a few people were extinguishing the fire, and most of them, like Liu Chengmin, began to shoot back at the Sui crossbowmen who rushed out of the shield array one by one, but not many people continued to shoot the Sui army who built the bridge.

The crossbowmen who rushed out of the Sui army also shot down more than 20 people, Goguryeo's archers, many of them usually make a living from hunting, bows and arrows are a must, even if there is no spontaneous shooting under unified command, there are almost no arrows, only a blink of an eye, the crossbowmen who rushed out of the Sui army almost suffered most of the casualties, and most of the people who are still alive and can act have finished the crossbows in their hands and quickly retreated into the shield array.

Dozens of shields on the front were re-erected, and more than 50 archers leaned on the cover of these shields, leaning out from time to time, and constantly firing cold at the Goguryeo army in the village, and the bows and arrows of both sides shuttled back and forth in the air, staggered, so lively, but the Sui army that built the bridge was saved.

"Peng" sounded, a Sui military wrestler hammered down, and the last wooden peg was smashed into the junction between the two pontoon bridges, this wrestler shouted excitedly: "The bridge is open!" ”

This voice spread ten, ten to hundred, and almost all the Sui Army water ghosts in the water and the sledgehammer wrestlers on the bridge shouted excitedly. The Sui soldiers who were running on the bridge let out bursts of cheers. The speed of his feet also increased a lot all of a sudden.

Liu Chengmin woke up like a dream. He slapped his head and exclaimed, "Oops, you've been tricked!" He turned back to one of the heralds and shouted, "Quick, hurry up and call for help, 100,000 urgent!" ”

Yang Qianshou looked at the sky-high red wolf smoke rising from the thirteenth battalion of the left army, and looked at the long dragon of the Sui army who rushed over from several pontoon bridges, threw down the cloak camouflage on his body, and his iron armor was shining with cold light. The eyes gradually narrowed into a line.

Yang Chengzhe hurriedly said: "City Lord, quickly order the cavalry to counterattack, if you don't send reinforcements, I'm afraid the thirteenth battalion of the left army will not be able to withstand it!" ”

Yang Qianshou gritted his teeth and shook his head, he pointed to the Sui army in front of him who had received the fifth pontoon bridge in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "No, now all the battalions of the Sui army are forcibly crossing, and my cavalry has to deal with the Sui army in front of him, and the thirteen villages of the left camp are there." It's up to them. ”

Yang Chengzhe shook his head: "But now the other troops of the Sui army have not crossed the river, and only the Sui army from the lord of Liuzhai has come ashore." Now, if we use the cavalry to counterattack and drive them down the river, we will have time to come back and defend. ”

Yang Qianshou closed his eyes, he was quickly weighing the gains and losses, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Cheng Zhe, you take two thousand cavalry, go behind the village, and then rush out from the fourteenth village, flanking the enemy's side, remember, you must wait until the Sui army attacks the thirteenth village of the left army, and then attack when a melee is formed, don't fall in love with the battle, and come back quickly after burning the Sui army's pontoon bridges and boats." ”

A hint of joy flashed on Yang Chengzhe's face: "Order!" ”

Wang Shichong dressed as a soldier of his entourage, standing behind Fei Qingnu in a robe and big armor, walked quickly from the pontoon bridge, Fei Qingnu's wide body, like a wall, blocked in front of Wang Shichong, he held an iron shield in one hand, and carried a long-handled mountain axe in the other hand, plus the weight of that iron armor, almost every step he took, he could step on the bridge deck and sink heavily, so that Wang Shichong, who was following behind, was also unstable several times, if it were not for the entourage around and behind, he would almost fall into the water.

When Wang Shichong's feet stepped on the west bank of the Liao River, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and the hundreds of tribal guards behind him, holding iron shields and heavy armor, set up a net in front of Wang Shichong.

Fei Qingnu's eyes were full of excitement, his face was full of murderous energy, at this time the Sui army had three or four thousand troops ashore, in front of the river bank three or four miles wide, forming an iron wall, the archers kept firing from the shield array, hanging and shooting, as the Sui army had more and more troops, the archers were also more and more, the arrows of the Sui army began to gradually suppress the archers of the Goguryeo army, and now among the ten arrows flying in the air, there were more than seven of the Sui army's fires.

Fei Qingnu looked at the camp of Goguryeo, behind the fence, there were already corpses, there was almost no one alive within thirty steps from the fence, and the remaining more than 1,000 sergeants had been forced to retreat again and again by the rain of arrows of the Sui army, giving up the defense of the first line of the fence. Fei Qingnu said: "General, are we taking advantage of the situation to attack the village and seize this village?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "General Fei, did you hear the sound of horses' hooves?" ”

Fei Qingnu was slightly stunned, held his breath, and listened carefully, in addition to the whistling sound of arrow rain and the burning and cracking of torches, there was indeed the sound of some horses' hooves hitting the ground, but this sound was far away, as if it was a few miles away, and it was not coming towards the position of this river beach.

Fei Qingnu nodded and said, "It is true that there is a large cavalry movement five miles away, but they seem to be heading south, not towards us. ”

Wang Shichong said with a straight face: "There is no our army crossing the river in the south, General Fei, what do you say they are going to the south for?" ”

Fei Qingnu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Then they must have made a detour back to the south and came out of other stockades, wanting to sneak attack the flank of our army." ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Exactly, last time they were like this to General Mai's department, luring the main force to attack the village, and then attacking the flank from the river beach with cavalry, General Fei, we can't be fooled this time." Do you understand? ”

Fei Qingnu suddenly realized and nodded: "Then we must not attack Dazhai, we must lay a defensive line here to prevent the enemy from rushing over." ”

Wang Shichong smiled and shook his head: "No, if we don't attack the village, how can they rush over?" General Fei, judge how many cavalry they have? ”

Fei Qingnu said in a deep voice: "About more than two thousand riders." There won't be more. ”

Wang Shichong asked: "Then if you give you ironclad infantry, how many people do you need to hold the river beach position?" ”

Fei Qingnu said proudly: "Five hundred people are enough. ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Then I'll give you three hundred people, can you hold it for more than half an hour?" (To be continued......)
