Chapter 234: Japanese Devils

"When! While! While! ”

The alarm bell at the head of Liaodong City rang for a long time, and then the war drums were beaten!

"The Goguryeo people are coming!" On the upper floor of Liaodong City, a team defending the city was roaring hoarsely.

In the dark sky of dusk, I saw that in the distance of the pole, some small black dots with shadows began to appear.

As soon as the alarm bell rang at the head of the city, the war drums beat, and in the Liaodong military camp, which had been waiting for the day in the past few days, and was fully prepared for war, a team of soldiers and horses quickly drove up to the city. The soldiers of the engineer battalion immediately ran to the side of the crossbows, catapults and other equipment at the head of the city.

Archers and crossbowmen also drove up to the city in groups, and according to the war zone that had been divided, the entire city head was spread all over the city. At the gate of the four cities, at this time, a cavalry unit had also gathered, all of which were neatly equipped, holding the reins of war horses and horses, ready to fight at any time.

All the soldiers and horses are in place, and the big flags on the slope are waving in the wind, and the hunting is sounding! There was no noise, no noise, and the entire Liaodong City was in a burst of footsteps, the sound of swords and soldiers unsheathed, and the sound of crossbows and chuáng winding, but it seemed extraordinarily solemn.

The Goguryeo soldiers and horses gradually approached, and even standing on the top of the city, they could already be seen clearly with the naked eye.

This was not the forward force of the Goguryeo, the advance army of the Goguryeo people had been defeated twice in a row by the Sui army, and the last time it was 20,000 people wiped out. On the same day, after Chen Kefu annihilated the entire Liao front army, he immediately quickly retreated to Liaodong City.

In the reconnaissance of the horse exploration and the secret service division along the way, the march of the entire Goguryeo army was in the hands of the Liaodong camp. The Secret Service Division has already found out this force in front of him, and this force is the Western Route Army led by Yuan Jingshui.

The whole army assembled and dispatched from Beisha, Jian'an and other cities on the Liaodong Peninsula, with a total of 30,000 soldiers.

Not only that, but they also met with the Dongying people who arrived from the sea in Beisha City. Hundreds of warships brought a full 10,000 Dongying people, and the number of Dongying people who went out made Chen Kefu and other generals a little surprised.

This army was supposed to arrive a day ago, but after the Liao army was annihilated in Xincheng, this army of soldiers and horses stopped moving. It wasn't until Yizhi Wende's army came up that they slowly reached the city of Liaodong first after maintaining a distance of about half a day's schedule from Gao Jianwu.

40,000 Western Route Army, of which 30,000 were soldiers and horses from Beisha and Jian'an. These soldiers and horses have always been to cope with the Great Sui's eastward advance from the Fuhai Sea in Shandong, and they were the elite soldiers and horses second only to Liaodong City in Goguryeo in the past. The entire Liao army in the middle and upper reaches of the Liao River was annihilated by the Sui army, but the 30,000 soldiers and horses in the lower reaches of the Liao River did not receive any blow. This time, under the command of Yuan Jingshui, 30,000 horses poured out of the city, which belonged to an elite force of the entire Goguryeo Northern Expeditionary Army.

They were all armed with bright armor, spears, scimitars, and longbows, and they flocked like ants. The whole army unfolded a long and huge glaive formation, slowly advancing.

After summarizing the habits of several attacks by the Sui army in Liaodong City, Yuan Jingshui, who was thirty years old, chose to advance cautiously defensively. The 40,000 horses maintained a complete array and slowly advanced until they reached the foot of Liuhe City, ten miles outside the city of Liaodong, before the whole army stopped.

To everyone's surprise, the Liao army did not enter Liuhe City, and did not even send troops to Liuhe City to investigate, but turned around in unison, but instead chose a middle section five or six miles away from Liuhe City and Liaodong City, and the whole army stopped advancing.

40,000 horses, but it is already like a cloud, boundless, standing at the head of the city to look, only to see the entire south gate direction is the crow of Goguryeo people and horses. The spear is like a forest, and the flag is like the sea. The Liao army began to camp six miles south of the city, abandoning the empty city of Liuhe City in the east of Liaodong City.

The distance of six miles was very close, and in the light of dusk, it was clear that about 10,000 cavalry had set up an offensive array to defend in front of their camp. The Liao people in the back, like ants, began to cut down nearby trees.

All the trees in sight, large or small, were cut down by them and used to make siege equipment, large camp fences, lookouts, make fires for cooking, and keep warm. All the Liao army was on alert, camped and camped, but there was still a group of men and horses who did not move. Most of them wore two levels of armor with only xiōng front and back, and many of them were wooden and bamboo. The weapons they held were even more five, including long spears, scimitars, and axes, and all of them wore a large hat. These are the Dongying people who came from the sea, and dozens of Dongying people came to the front of the battle, pointing and jumping at Liaodong City, shouting and wah. ,

There were even a few Dongying people who untied their belts and urinated in Liaodong, and the dozens of people kept yelling and screaming, and the huge sound of "Eight Grid Tooth Road" could be faintly heard even above the city.

"Marshal, what are they talking about?" On the top of the city tower in the southeast of Liaodong, someone asked Chen Kefu, and they all knew that Chen Kefu had a concubine who was from Dongying, and he should understand those words.

Of course, Chen Kefu understands the meaning of this sentence, after all, no one in later generations will not know such a sentence. This is an ugly curse sentence, and the eight grid is the meaning of the red deer, which is actually related to the idiom of referring to the deer as a horse in China.

Zhao Gao's reference to the deer as a horse Everyone knows that it means to reverse right and wrong, but when it comes to Zi Ri himself, those stupid Dongying people have a different understanding. In their opinion, people who can't even tell the difference between a horse and a deer are stupid and bastard. Therefore, the "day" himself scolds Bage, that is, he scolds people for being stupid. But if you add another tooth path to the end, it's a different story. Yalu, the meaning of Yelang. , which means that the red deer is a hybrid of wild breeds and animals, which is a rather vicious word, which is equivalent to the "dog" mongrel of the "middle" country.

Chen Kefu's face was ugly, and in his heart, he had always hated the little devil.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, he was a grandson, and he sent envoys to China to learn various knowledge and etiquette. turned out to be ungrateful and became a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised. The robbers of the Song and Ming dynasties, and the invasions after the end of the Qing Dynasty, robbed the wealth of countless Chinese people, and their hands were stained with the blood of Chinese children.

Such a savage on such a small island dared to call himself the emperor. The Great Sui did not send troops to fight him, and it was already the rate of inviting the heavens, and they actually dared to send troops to mix in the war between the Great Sui and Goguryeo, these people were really arrogant. Sooner or later, one day, he must destroy this wild man country that does not know the height of the sky.

"Which general dares to lead a battalion of cavalry out of the city to fight and frustrate the enemy's spirit!" Chen Kefu looked at the Dongying people who were showing off their might, and turned to the generals behind him.

Everyone had just finished listening to Chen Kefu's scolding words, and they were already about to explode at this time. A few invincible savages also dared to insult them like this. Zhang He, Liu Tiezhu, Chen Feng, Chen Lin, Li Shimin, Guo Xiaoke and others will ask to play. Even the old man Li Benlei was so angry that he must go out of the city to teach those savages a lesson, and Li Jie was not willing to be left behind at this time, so he strongly asked to fight.

At present, the soldiers are pressing, and most of the soldiers in the city are also a little nervous and worried. At this time, Chen Kefu urgently needed a victory to boost morale, even if it was a small victory.

Looking at the performance of the generals, Chen Kefu was very satisfied, and swept over the generals one by one, Li Shimin's brothers were infantry generals, and it was not appropriate to send them out. Guo Xiaoke led heavy cavalry, and it was not time to use them at this time, after turning around, Chen Kefu said in a deep voice, "General's order, Li Jie and Zhang Heer will take five thousand light horsemen out of the city to fight with the enemy." Note that you must not fall in love with the battle, and you can return to the camp after a small defeat of the enemy's spirit. Chen Feng and Chen Lin are ready to lead 5,000 cavalry to return to the city at any time! The four of them clasped their fists together and shouted happily, "Order!" "Especially Li Jie, he, a general, has never given him a chance to lead troops on a war horse since he entered the broken military camp. Right now, Chen Kefu actually asked him to lead the troops into battle, and he couldn't help but feel very moved in his heart.

There was still the last ray of afterglow in the sky, and the south gate squeaked and slowly opened.

As soon as the drawbridge fell, Li Jie and Zhang He, who had already gathered 5,000 cavalry, took the lead and took the lead out of the city.

"Beat the drums and cheer for the two generals!"

The sound of the cowhide drum sounded, and the five thousand elite light cavalry were like a sharp sword out of the sheath at this time, heading straight towards the Liao camp.

The sudden attack of the Sui army startled Yuan Jingshui by Groove Liao. He didn't want to fight with the Sui people at this time, everyone knew that these Sui people were crazy people, and they would be defeated and die if they were not careful. His two elder brothers, an uncle, and tens of thousands of clansmen are still in the Sui camp.

However, now that the Sui people have come to the front of the formation, Yuan Jingshui shouted loudly, "Column up the defensive formation, the whole army must not attack, stabilize the formation!" ”

The long-trained Goguryeo soldiers and horses of the Liaodong Peninsula quickly dropped their weapons, and the cavalry retreated into the infantry formation. Columns of shields were held in front of them, followed by spearmen, axes, archers, and crossbowmen. This is the most conservative way to defend and fight, and to include the cavalry in the formation is to make a turtle defense formation, so that the enemy has nowhere to start. ,

The queen of the Dongying people will face the Yuan Pure Water Road with a disdainful face, "The water is flooded, and the soldiers will block." General Yuan's approach is not an act of honor that a samurai should have, and I will not accept such a shameful avoidance of fighting. ”

Yuan Jingshui said with a dark face, "General Suga Taro, I am the commander of the coalition forces, you should obey my orders!" ”

"No, no, no, I, Yamato, just agreed to send troops to deal with the Sui State after accepting your conditions, but I didn't say that I would accept your orders after I came.

My ten thousand men of war will not receive any command from anyone but my command. The Sui State just came with a few thousand cavalry, and they scared the scalers like this, which is really contemptible. No wonder, the 20,000-strong army actually wiped out the Liao people, since you don't dare to fight, let me Yamato warriors fight, let you see how heroic my Yamato warriors are! After saying that, Su Gataro carried his big knife and shouted at his subordinates, and all those Dongying people roared. The 10,000 Dongying people, all of whom were infantry, carried spears and long knives, crossed the Goguryeo position, and quickly set up a large infantry-spear phalanx.

Yuan Jingshui stood there without saying a word, and continued to command the 30,000 horses and horses under his command to form a formation, but he just looked at the eyes of the Dongying people, but he was full of disdain.

"Dashuai, the Sui people are tough and powerful. These Dongying people rushed up like this, they definitely can't please the good, and even if they are not good, they will be defeated, Dashuai, do you want to call them back. One said to Lu Guan.

“。 production, it's not that Ben Shuai didn't remind him, it was that he didn't obey Ben Shuai's orders. Since he has no one in his eyes like this, then it is better to let the Sui people teach him a lesson, and let him know that they are just a dog invited by my Goguryeo Huā Qian. Yuan Jingshui sneered.

"But after all, they are our coalition forces, if we watch them defeated by the Sui army like this, it will not do us any good, please think twice." Yuan Jingshui said with a smile: "This handsome man has his own measure, and I won't let them really be destroyed by the Sui army, but I just plan to let the Sui army teach him a good lesson for me, so that they will not be so arrogant in the future." When they suffer losses, we can rescue them, which can not only blow their arrogance, but also sell them a favor. ”

"Gao Dashuai is really smart, so in the future, this arrogant Dongying people will not only be grateful for the grace of Jī Dashuai's rescue, but will also be more obedient in the future." Six miles of five thousand Sui troops were approaching in an instant, and Li Jie couldn't help but feel a little confused when he saw the Liao people put on such a strange formation to respond to the battle. Of the 40,000 men and horses, 30,000 people were actually set up in a turtle formation in the back, and 10,000 people in front took the initiative to run to the front to line up the spear infantry formation to engage in the battle, no matter how he looked at it, how did he think that there was something wrong with this Liao army general. No matter which book of war, there is no such way of playing in the battle strategy.

However, the goal of his trip was to frustrate the enemy's spirit, and since the Liao army had set up such a formation so cooperatively, he would no longer be polite.

The pikes were paired with crossbow troops, which was indeed a good strategy against cavalry.

However, they forgot that they were dealing with the Sui light cavalry, a well-equipped army of soldiers and horses. Although the Dongying people have spears, the spears are not the spear arrays of the Central Plains people, which have the longest and shortest spears of at least four or five meters. The Dongying people were generally short, no more than five or six feet tall, and the spears they held were actually no more than a spear, no more than eight or nine feet long, and their bows and arrows were few, and most of them were soft bows that were not very strong.

Seeing the Sui army approaching, Su Itaro roared, and those people in the front line wearing hats put down their spears one after another, pointing obliquely at the Sui army, like a hedgehog suddenly opening up the short thorns on his body.

At this time, the archers in the middle also opened their bows and arrows one after another, and shot the feather arrows in their hands. A rain of arrows passed, and there were very few who could shoot the high-speed galloping Sui army, and most of those arrows were also blocked by the bright light armor on the knight's body, except for a few unlucky soldiers who were killed or wounded, the Sui army did not suffer any losses at all.

As soon as the arrows of the Dongying people fell, the crossbows of the knights of the Sui army began to exert their might. Each knight brought two crossbows for three consecutive shots, and there was no need to wind them at all.

The armor of the Dongying people only protected the two backs of the xiōng, and except for those officers, most of the soldiers wore wooden armor and bamboo armor. The 10,000 Dongying people didn't even have an iron helmet, and they all wore bamboo hats. ,

The crossbow has a long range, a fast rate of fire, and a strong force. A round of five thousand crossbow arrows roared into the Dongying array, and those simple armors could not stop the Sui army's crossbow arrows at all, and one after another Dongying people screamed and retreated uncontrollably by the crossbow arrows. A scream was like a scream, and in the first round, hundreds of people died, and the rest of the injured were hundreds.

The Sui army was still galloping fast, 5,000 cavalry around the 10,000-strong Dongying infantry phalanx, galloping at high speed, shooting a crossbow every once in a while, a crossbow with three good crossbow arrows, they brought two crossbows, there were six crossbow arrows, and 5,000 people were 30,000 crossbow arrows.

Except for the outermost Dongying soldiers who were guarded by big shields, the rest of the Dongying people were all within the range of the Sui army.

The rain of crossbow arrows that didn't stop like rain, and the suppressed Dongying people couldn't even lift their heads. Except for the first round of arrow rain, the Dongying people did not organize a decent confrontation in the back, except for the occasional shooting of sporadic feather arrows, these Dongying people were completely passively beaten.

If this momentum continues, these Dongying people will not last long at all, and they will be approached and dispersed. When the support of the array is lost, it will be the end of the Dongying people. After 30,000 crossbow arrows were fired, the Sui army retrieved the cavalry bow from its back and continued to shoot.

Li Jie was riding on the horse, his eyes were about to laugh and he couldn't see, he never thought that he was just here to beat the Liao people, take advantage of it and leave, and slightly demoralize the Liao army. But the result was such a surprising result, the Liao people actually sent 10,000 Dongying people to send them to death, looking at the Dongying people who kept falling, he estimated that they had killed at least 2,000 people.

Suga Taro was no longer half arrogant at this time, and his face was full of horror. The Yamato warriors who fell one by one made his heart feel like death, and his face was miserable. At this time, he no longer mentioned any Yamato warriors and any samurai spirit. A hoarse roar continued to sound, and the Dongying people, who were on the verge of collapse, began to slowly retreat towards the Goguryeo array in the rain of arrows of the Sui army.

"Marshal, the Dongying people have suffered heavy losses, let's send troops to take them back!"

Yuan Jingshui was also full of surprise, and even a little panicked, this Sui army was too strong.

"Quick, the whole army is moving forward slowly, pick them up, stabilize their positions, and don't rush forward."

The sound of a long horn sounded, and the 30,000 people of Goguryeo began to march in a neat pace, maintaining a complete array to move forward to meet the Dongying people.

Chen Kefu, who was watching the battle at the head of Liaodong City, looked at the stable formation of the Sui people, and said with a smile: "In the next battle of the city, the two generals Li Jie and Zhang He have severely damaged the morale of the enemy army, and although the Goguryeo people are defeated, the formation is not chaotic. ”
