Chapter 0124: The Decisive Battle of Pyongyang (4)

Eji Wende's Chinese army deployed 15,000 men, but in fact 5,000 were cavalry, and after the cavalry suffered a heavy defeat, his Chinese army was quickly reduced to 10,000.

An hour ago, the 3,000 elites led by Yuwen Chengdu launched a fierce attack on the Goguryeo Chinese army from the rear, and the Yuwen Chengdu army came very suddenly, hitting the Goguryeo army by surprise, instantly disrupting the rear of the Goguryeo Chinese army, and plunging the Chinese army into chaos.

At this time, the decisive battle between the two armies had been carried out to a fever pitch, the two armies on the battlefield were like dogs' teeth, and the battle line was stretched to a distance of fifteen miles.

The command of the Goguryeo army was even more chaotic, Ulzhi Wende completely lost contact with the various armies under his command, he was like an independent army fighting fiercely with the Sui army, Ulzhi Wende personally commanded 10,000 troops to surround the 3,000 troops of Yuwen Chengdu, trying to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

But the first battalion led by Yuwen Chengdu is the most elite army of the Sui army after all, although the strength is at an absolute disadvantage, they are like a walnut made of pig iron, no matter how the Goguryeo army attacked, they were still extremely tough, with 3,000 troops to drag down nearly 10,000 Chinese troops in Goguryeo, which is also the main purpose of Laihu'er to order Yuwen Chengdu to attack, let them drag the enemy army, reduce the pressure on other armies, and create conditions for the slow reversal of the battlefield situation.

The sound of horns on the battlefield, the rumbling of war drums, the golden iron horse, the fierce battle is especially hearty, Yuwen Chengdu led three thousand elites to form a spear quadripartite array, the first row of soldiers is tall, strong arm strength, they hold a spear in one hand, a shield in the other hand, resist the enemy's bow and arrow shooting, the Goguryeo army attacked again and again, they were resisted to the death, 10,000 Goguryeo Chinese troops besieged them for nearly an hour, still unable to defeat this Sui army.

Echiwende's eyes were red. "Where is our cavalry, where is Ohgaan?" Send me cavalry to attack! ”

A general next to him shouted: "General, Da He'an has been killed, and the cavalry has been killed by the Sui army." Can't get together! ”

Yizhi Wende was stunned for a moment, slammed the war knife on the ground, and scolded angrily: "Taking the initiative to attack the Sui army is the biggest mistake!" ”

A personal soldier next to him hurriedly gave Ezhi Wende a look, and Ezhi Wende woke up. Yuangai Suwen was beside him, it was really inappropriate to scold Yuantai Zuo like this, Yuangai Suwen was full of shame, he stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "The general is reasonable, it is true that he should not take the initiative to attack, so that the cavalry will suffer heavy losses, otherwise five thousand cavalry will be enough to break the defense of the Sui army." ”

Yizhi Wende sighed, "Your father also has his reasons, and it is not good for our morale to drag it out all the time, but no one would have thought that the Sui army's bow and crossbow array would be so powerful." He can't be blamed entirely. ”

Yuangai Suwen nodded silently, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly reminded Yizhi Wende, "General, if we attack this Sui army with all our might, I am afraid that the military flag will not be enough to protect it, and if it is taken advantage of by an enemy army, the consequences may be very serious." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a shout of killing broke out in the west, and the 3,000 Goguryeo soldiers besieging the Sui army in the west suddenly became in chaos. The Sui army was killed from behind them.

Yizhi Wende was taken aback, the west was their garrison flag army, their flag was there, and the Sui army killed from the west. Obviously, it was for the military flag, and he immediately said to Yuan Gai Suwen: "General Yuan can lead a thousand troops to support the west, no matter what, he must keep the military flag!" ”

"Obey!" Yuangai Suwen immediately turned his horse's head and led a thousand soldiers to the west.

The Sui army, which was besieged by the Goguryeo army, also discovered the anomaly in the west, which was that the Sui army had killed it, and immediately a soldier reported to Yuwen Chengdu, who was commanding the battle in the army. Yuwen Chengdu looked to the west, only to see that the west was like a wave, and a sharp Sui army entered the Goguryeo garrison from behind, with a very clear goal, that is, the flag of the enemy.

Yuwen Chengdu's eyesight was far beyond ordinary people, and when he saw a rapidly moving battle flag embroidered with the word 'Zhang', he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, 'Could it be Zhang Xuan's army?' ’

Yuwen Chengdu knows Zhang Xuan's courage, ordinary generals don't have the courage to attack the enemy's commander's banner, but Zhang Xuan dares to attack, it must be him.

Yuwen Chengdu's heart also ignited a kind of courage to compete for power, and he shouted an order: "Our reinforcements have arrived, continue to resist the enemy's attack, and wait for my order!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu was in no hurry to change his tactics, he needed to wait for the effect of Jang Hyun's assault, if the troops were insufficient, Jang Hyun's army might soon be drowned in the wave of counteroffensive of the Goguryeo army.

Yuwen Chengdu's eyes slowly narrowed, and he was also looking forward to seeing the moment when Jang Hyun cut down the Goguryeo military flag.

Zhang Xuan led 1,700 Sui soldiers to attack the enemy's Chinese camp from the west, he led 300 cavalry as the vanguard, the war horse galloped, the spear stabbed, the 300 cavalry smashed into the enemy's back like a sharp knife, the Goguryeo soldiers were in a big confusion, and they dodged to both sides.

The cavalry of the 300 Sui army rampage, like a chopping wave, opened a bloody road, and the positions of more Goguryeo troops were also confused, followed by more than 1,000 Sui infantry shouting and following the cavalry into the enemy's main array.

Zhang Xuan's horse is like flying, the halberd pulls out the arrows that shoot from both sides, two enemy generals rushed in front, each holding a spear, one left and one right to Zhang Xuan to kill, Zhang Xuan stabbed the halberd quickly, the halberd was like electricity, the fierce halberd tip pierced the throat of an enemy general, and he flew out of the horse, Zhang Xuan's war horse jumped up, crossed over the head of another enemy general, Zhang Xuan backhanded a halberd in the air, pierced the chest of another enemy general.

Zhang Xuan led the cavalry like a group of fierce tigers galloping in the flock, the corpses were everywhere they passed, the flesh and blood were flying, the Goguryeo soldiers were so frightened that they were fart, and fled in a hurry, they were getting closer and closer to the Goguryeo military flag car, at this moment, someone not far away shouted, "The Sui army is rampant, Gai Suwen is here!" ”

I saw a burly Goguryeo general from the oblique stab to kill, he held a big iron spear, distracted to stab at Zhang Xuan, the gun speed is fast, strong and powerful, Yuan Gai Suwen is known as the first general of Goguryeo, make a seventy pound big iron gun, outstanding marksmanship, brave and good at fighting.

Zhang Xuan had heard of Gai Suwen's name, he didn't dare to be careless, he shook his spirits, waved his halberd and picked the iron spear outward, and the halberd collided, 'Dang! There was a loud bang, and both of them were shocked to take a few steps back, and Zhang Xuan's arms were slightly numb. Restrained the war horse in time, he was furious in his heart, and stabbed at Yuangai Suwen with his halberd.

Yuangai Suwen was even more shocked to the point that his arms were sore, and the iron spear was almost out of his hand. He couldn't help but be secretly surprised, he didn't expect this Sui general to be so fierce and far more powerful than himself, he had a trace of timidity in his heart, and waved his gun to block Zhang Xuan's halberd.

The two fought less than seven or eight rounds. Yuan Gai Suwen's strength gradually ran out, taking advantage of the opportunity of the two horses to turn the horse and flee, his war horse is called Jade Qilin, it is a BMW that is one in a million, the horse is as fast as lightning, and it will run out of more than 100 steps in an instant.

Jang Hyun's target was not him, and he did not chase after Yuan Gai Suwen, urging the horse to rush under the military banner of Goguryeo.

This is also the handsome flag of Goguryeo, the big flag is as high as three zhang, and the flagpole is as thick as the mouth of a bowl. The blue brocade is embroidered with a ferocious Siberian tiger, which is particularly striking in the field.

At this time, the surrounding Goguryeo soldiers saw Zhang Xuan's attempt, and they were shocked and desperately killed from all directions, and the Sui soldiers rushed forward one after another, withstanding the crazy counterattack of the Goguryeo army.

Zhang Xuan sneered, brandished his halberd and slammed it towards the flagpole, 'Click! With a bang, the sharp green dragon halberd blade slashed the flagpole with a thick bowl mouth. Goguryeo's handsome flag fell suddenly, Zhang Xuan's halberd was picked, and the handsome flag was picked up by him at the tip of the halberd, and he shouted: "The enemy's handsome flag has fallen!" ”

The surrounding Sui soldiers cheered. Yuwen Chengdu also saw that the Goguryeo military flag had fallen, and he shouted excitedly: "The enemy's military flag has fallen, our army will win, and the whole army will attack!" ”

Thousands of Sui troops thundered with joy and morale, and began to launch a counterattack against the enemy forces surrounding them. When the Goguryeo soldiers saw the fall of the Shuai Qi, their morale was affected, and they began to fight without intention.

At the same time, Zhang Xuan led an army from the west to attack, and the two Sui armies cooperated tacitly to defeat the Goguryeo army, and the army in the west was the first to collapse.

Immediately afterwards, the Goguryeo soldiers in the south could not resist the fierce attack of the Sui army, and the morale of the army collapsed, and the soldiers fled in defeat.

"Steady! Hold my ground! ”

Yizhi Wende was so anxious that he waved his knife and shouted, at this moment, Yuwen Chengdu opened his bow and set up an arrow, and an arrow shot at Yizhi Wende a hundred steps away, Yizhi Wende couldn't dodge, an arrow hit the left shoulder, he screamed, turned over and fell off the horse.

Dozens of personal soldiers rushed to rescue Eulji Wende, escorted him to Pyongyang City, with the military flag was captured and Eulji Wende was injured and fled, the Chinese army of the Goguryeo army finally collapsed, thousands of Goguryeo soldiers scattered and fled, were chased and killed by the Sui army, suffered heavy casualties, and surrendered countless people.

The rout of the Chinese army seriously affected the overall situation of the Goguryeo army, and the battlefield situation began to reverse rapidly.

"!"

Yuan Taizuo, who was watching the battle at the head of the city, smashed his fist on the city wall, he thought that the 50,000 elite army could defeat the other party, but he didn't expect that a good game of chess would be lost by Yizhi Wende, he was so hateful that he bled in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "The reserve army is killed, and I must save the battle!" ”

The western city gate of Pyongyang was wide open, and nearly 70,000 reserve troops came out of the city and killed the battlefield seven or eight miles away, but they only ran out for a few miles, and the drums in the woods not far away were loud, and a Sui army of 20,000 people came out of the woods, coming fiercely, and rushed the reserve army into two sections.

Cui Hongsheng shouted sharply: "Sons, the time for revenge has come, kill all the enemy soldiers for me!" ”

The humiliated Sui prisoners of war burst into a roar, and they rushed towards the Goguryeo army with hatred, waving their swords and stabbing their spears, killing the Goguryeo soldiers crying and screaming, and the screams resounded outside the city.

The Goguryeo reserve army was in chaos, although they were numerous, but most of them were civilians who had just taken up arms, and before the battle began, they were frightened by the fierce Sui army prisoners of war, and the soldiers who had not had time to leave the city retreated into the city one after another, and the soldiers who had not been out of the city for a short time also turned around and fled into the city.

At this time, the main force of the Goguryeo army on the battlefield finally collapsed on the whole line, the Goguryeo army was defeated like a mountain, tens of thousands of soldiers lost their armor and ran for their lives in the wilderness, and the Sui army chased and killed the corpses of Goguryeo soldiers all over the field, blood stained the earth, countless soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy, and countless surrendered people.

The western gate of Pyongyang was quickly closed, allowing the Sui army to chase and kill the defeated and helpless Goguryeo soldiers outside the city.

"Sadly, the tide is gone!"

[Note: Historically, Laihu'er defeated the Goguryeo army in the city of Beiluxury, and Lao Gao changed the location to Pyongyang City] (To be continued.) )
