At this time, the camp of the Sui army made a few loud noises, only to see a few black dots flying into the air, suddenly shattered, and many palm-sized pieces of paper fluttered in the air, which were paper bullets shot by the Sui army's trebuchet, and there were thousands of them.

These pieces of paper were blown by the wind to the positions of the Gao Kaidao army, and many people picked them up, and they passed them to each other, and a whisper sounded in the army, and the literate soldiers read the above words, and everyone's eyes flashed with a complicated look, and many people seemed to be moved.

Someone handed the piece of paper to Gao Kaidao, only to see that it was written: 'Zhang Xuan, the guard of Qinghetong, respectfully told all the brothers in Hebei that your parents, wives and children have moved to Qi County and Beihai County, and they all look forward to your return home and reunion. ’

"Bastard!"

Gao Kaidao was so angry that he tore the pieces of paper to shreds, and when he saw that his morale had begun to waver, he immediately ordered: "Attack!" ”

The order to attack was heard, and the drums of battle were beaten, 'Boom! Boom! Boom! The thieves began to shout and run again, but their morale was significantly low, and their speed was more than twice as slow as before, and many of them were helpless to charge forward.

Zhang Xuan sneered, it is true that as Li Jing said, the other party is not strong, once the morale subsides, their combat effectiveness is far inferior to the Sui army, no wonder they can't capture Liucheng in a month, it's just a group of well-equipped rabble.

"Attack!"

Jao Hyun also suddenly gave the order to attack, "Kill!" The angry shouts of 10,000 Sui soldiers were like raging waves bursting the embankment, surging towards the Gao Kaidao army two hundred paces away.

The two armies collided violently, slashing with swords and stabbing with spears. Flesh and blood flew on both sides, and screams rang out.

In particular, the 500 heavily armored infantry were like a sharp fist, and the long knives were like a wall, invincible, killing the thieves and soldiers on their backs, and the formation was in chaos.

Although Gao Kaidao's army was more than twice as large as the Sui army. But they were still unable to resist the sharp offensive of the Sui army, and they were killed and retreated, chaotic, and Gao Kaidao's voice was hoarse, and it was still difficult to stabilize the army's position.

Su Dingfang led 3,000 troops on the right flank and fought fiercely on the left flank of the enemy, although Su Dingfang was the first time to lead the army to fight, but he did not have stage fright, but was extraordinarily brave and took the lead. Led 3,000 brothers to fight fiercely against the enemy.

Although Su Dingfang was the main general of the left flank, he was mainly responsible for coordination, and the specific operations were handled by three partial generals, who each led a thousand troops to attack the thief army from three directions.

The war horse galloped, Su Dingfang saw the main general of the opponent's left flank at a glance, about a hundred steps away from him, Su Dingfang was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately hung the knife on the saddle bridge. Draw the Condor Bow and draw two wolf-tooth arrows. One bites, the other arrow is wound with the bow, and the bow is drawn like a full moon, and an arrow is shot from the side.

This arrow was ruthless and accurate, hitting the neck of the enemy general Han Zhiming, and Han Zhiming screamed. Planted from the horse, his own soldiers were shocked and hurriedly rescued him, but Su Dingfang's second 'whoosh! When the ground shot, Han Zhiming was powerless to dodge. He was shot through the forehead with an arrow and died instantly.

The left flank of the Gao Kaidao army lost its main general, the morale of the army quickly collapsed, and some soldiers began to flee in the chaos.

At this time, a captain rushed to Gao Kaidao to report: "King, the left wing can't stand it, General Han is dead!" ”

Gao Kaidao was taken aback, and hurriedly shouted: "It's rumored that the rear army is supporting the left flank!" ”

The thief army waved the flag, and the 5,000 rear troops who had set up the flag in the distance immediately rushed to the left flank that was about to be defeated, saving the critical situation.

Zhang Xuan saw clearly that the enemy's rear army had come out, and it was this moment where he was waiting, and he immediately shouted: "Order the cavalry to attack!" ”

"Woo-woo-"

Dozens of muffled antlers sounded, and the sound echoed in the field, at this time, a black line appeared in the distance, getting closer and closer, the earth began to tremble, and in a short time, a Sui cavalry of three thousand people came from behind the Gao Kaidao army.

= The sudden attack of the Sui cavalry caught Gao Kaidao off guard, he was so frightened that he suddenly found that he couldn't deal with it, if his rear army had not yet been dispatched, he could order the rear army to respond to the emergency, with dense bows or short spears to block the momentum of the Sui army's attack, and then adjust the strength to besiege the Sui cavalry, maybe he still has a glimmer of life.

But now that his rear army has been put into battle, he has no extra troops in his hands, so he has no choice but to give an urgent order: "The Chinese army turns around and faces the Sui army!" ”

No matter how Gao Kaidao dispatched troops, he could not reverse the end of defeat, his army has lost morale, the morale of the army has collapsed, no one listens to his command anymore, the unstoppable murderous spirit of the Sui army and the momentum of the landslide make the thief army broken, they rushed to flee for their lives, the defeat is like a mountain, there are countless surrenderers, Gao Kaidao saw that the situation was not good, led dozens of guards to flee west......

A bloody battle ended after lasting more than an hour, this battle the Sui army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, but also created a brilliant record, killing 6,000 enemies, capturing more than 17,000 people, and only more than 1,000 escaped the battlefield.

Pei Xingyan led the cavalry to continue to chase the thieves, while the Sui army was busy cleaning up the battlefield, and groups of dejected prisoners of war were escorted by the Sui soldiers to Yancheng County, and the captured armor was piled up.

Zhang Xuan came to the piled up armor and seized 20,000 pairs of armor, all of which were Mingguang armor, which was not completely leather armor, but a few thin pieces made of stainless steel to protect several vital places.

In particular, the steel armor plates on the front and rear chest and abdomen can protect almost all the vital points of the soldiers.

Mingguang armor due to the extremely high cost, so in the Sui army is only the Xiaoguo army clothed, the general army can only be worn by officers above the brigade commander, this batch of Mingguang armor is the remnants of the second Goguryeo War, the second Goguryeo battle due to Yang Xuangan's rebellion, so that the son of heaven Yang Guang hastily withdrew from Liaodong, resulting in a large number of military food can not be transported, all fell into the hands of Goguryeo.

The 300,000 pieces of armor that Jang Hyun sank in Beihai a few years ago were materials for the First Goguryeo Campaign, and the armor was mainly leather armor.

And the armor equipment of the second Goguryeo campaign was much better, there were 100,000 sets of brand-new Mingguang armor in the warehouse of Ningyuan Town, Liaodong, but all of them fell into the hands of the Goguryeo people, and Gao Kaidao also got 30,000 sets of Mingguang armor because of the strong support of the Goguryeo people, but in the end it was completed by Zhang Xuan.

"Dashuai, I have captured a Goguryeo!" A soldier rushed to report.

Zhang Xuan looked back and saw more than a dozen soldiers walking with a man in a robe, this man was in his forties, with an arrogant expression, he glanced at Zhang Xuan, but his head was up, and he didn't say a word.

At this time, the captain who grabbed him stepped forward to report, "Marshal Qiqi, this person is mixed in among the prisoners of war and was reported by other prisoners of war, his name is Ning Shoude, a native of Goguryeo, and he is a military advisor of Gao Kaidao." ”

"Strategist?"

Zhang Xuan sneered and said to Ning Shoude: "You are embarrassed to call yourself a military advisor, but the military advisor actually didn't defend against my cavalry, which makes people laugh!" ”

Ning Shoude finally couldn't help but said coldly: "I know that your army will go north from a straight line, but Gao Kaidao is really stupid, he refuses to follow my advice, resulting in the enemy on his back, what does this have to do with me?" ”

"Your name is Ning Shoude?" Zhang Xuan asked again.

Since Ning Shoude had already answered with Zhang Xuan, he was no longer arrogant and ignored, he knew in his heart that the other party didn't want to kill him for the time being, and he had a glimmer of hope in his heart to regain his freedom.

"So what?" Ning Shoude snorted coldly.

"Then you should know who I am?" Zhang Xuan said lightly.

"How could I not know that everyone in Goguryeo is eager to kill you as soon as possible, especially my master, who hates you to the bone!"

"Your master should be Yuan Taizuo!"

Ning Shoude realized that he had slipped his mouth, he was secretly annoyed, turned his head and ignored Zhang Xuan,

Zhang Xuan smiled, "You don't have to regret anything, I already knew that Yuan Taizuo was fighting Liaodong's idea, but with me Zhang Xuan in one day, he will die of this heart, I won't kill you, I have another use for keeping you." ”

………

Pei Xingyan led the cavalry to chase the defeated soldiers all the way, and he received an order from Zhang Xuan to spare their lives as long as they surrendered.

Therefore, he constantly sent people to send the captured prisoners of war back to Yancheng County, and when he chased to Liucheng County, there were only 2,000 cavalry left with him.

At this time, a Sui army appeared in front, about hundreds of people, led by a burly, rugged-looking general, holding a large knife from the gate, he immediately stepped forward and shouted: "But to recruit General Zhang's army? ”

"Exactly!"

Pei Xingyan said loudly: "I am Pei Xingyan, the general of Xiongwulang under Zhang Shuai's account, who is here?" ”

The person who came was Lu Chifeng, the lord of Liucheng, he heard that the other party was the world-famous fierce general Pei Xingyan, he admired it in his heart, and hurriedly saluted: "In Xia Lu Chifeng, it is the general of Liucheng, I have heard the prestige of General Pei for a long time, and when I see it today, Lu Mou is fortunate to have three lives." ”

Pei Xingyan was proud, he heard that the other party knew him, and he was really comfortable in his heart, so he asked: "I'm here to catch up with Gao Kaidao and his party, does General Lu know his whereabouts?" (To be continued.) )
