The battle is in a confrontation, and the difference between victory and defeat is only a thin line.

The winner is often the one who can grasp that line.

Mencius said: The time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people. What the original meaning of this sentence is, very few people really know. His presence is mostly cited on the battlefield, which is highly justified.

The situation that Datang is facing now is precisely that there is no time, no location, and no people.

Liaodong is bitterly cold, not that the locals are extremely difficult to adapt, and most of the soldiers of the Tang army are from Guanzhong, so there is no time. Goguryeo was on the defensive, with reinforcements after occupying the fortified city, and the Tang Dynasty had no geographical advantages. As for the hearts of the people, Goguryeo has occupied Liaodong for more than 200 years, and the people in the territory have been under the control of Goguryeo and brainwashed by Goguryeo culture for more than 200 years. said how much they yearn for the Central Plains, and think that their Central Plains people are all empty. It can't be said that there are no people with lofty ideals who want to return to the embrace of the Central Plains, but it is inevitable that many people have subtly regarded themselves as Goguryeo people, and regarded the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses as foreign enemies, and the hearts of the people are also unknown.

The most critical issue was the issue of military strength, and the tyranny of Yang Guang caused the population of the world to plummet by three-quarters, resulting in a serious shortage of population in the Tang Dynasty. This ancient underpopulation would lead to a series of problems, and the economy, food, etc., would decline as a result, and the strength of the army was no exception.

Luo Shixin now has only 20,000 soldiers and horses at hand, and in the face of all kinds of unfavorable factors, only by seizing that little bit of fighter can the situation be reversed.

Goguryeo transferred troops from the mainland to support Liaodong, and the journey was extremely tiring. Luo Shixin also spread false news, tempting Goguryeo reinforcements to speed up the march and increase the physical consumption of the reinforcements, while the Tang army rested in place and waited for work.

The Tang Army has been recuperating and has always maintained its combat effectiveness and will to fight at its peak. The willpower of Goguryeo's combat power will inevitably be consumed with the consumption of physical strength.

If only the Goguryeo reinforcements had one more day to rest. The soldiers will be well rested and stand firm. It will be a different situation.

However, it was obvious that Luo Shixin's grasp of the battle situation would not give up this advantage, and when he learned that Goguryeo had stopped advancing and intended to rest, he did not hesitate to launch a reckless attack.

He did not give the Goguryeo reinforcements a chance to rest for a moment, forcing them to wait for the arrival of the Tang army with fatigue.

The military formation of Goguryeo is indeed magnificent, but Luo Shixin knows that this is an illusion, the Goguryeo soldiers are not iron, and no matter how strong the soldiers are, their physical strength has a limit. Now they are just stretching a tendon, holding on to it in one breath. As long as they break that tendon, this group of reinforcements will be defeated.

Luo Shixin's almost barbaric style of play is actually deeply in line with the purpose of the art of war.

This long-distance tired journey is glued with the recuperating division, and the victory or defeat is obvious.

It's just that the first wave of Luo Shixin's sprint has already occupied a certain advantage.

As the commander of the three armies, Luo Shixin has a rare opportunity to go into battle, and at this moment he is once again at the forefront of the battle, feeling that the surrounding areas are full of enemies: he is like a martial arts with killing, and his martial arts skills are honed on the battlefield, although he arrives at the transformation realm, he does not need to be honed on the battlefield. But this return to the battlefield, the long-lost feeling of killing came to my heart, like a tiger out of the cage. The blood boiled all over the body.

"Those who enter live, those who retreat die, kill with me!" Luo Shixin shouted, the spear in his hand hovered and flew, roaring and urging the horse forward!

The silver-white spear was like a scythe of death, shattering the crowd in front of it, slashing all the enemies at a distance of two feet, forming a regional vacuum within the attack range, within the vacuum distance. Anyone who enters the attack range will be killed with one blow!

"Haha! The adults are powerful. The brothers followed behind the first fierce general of the Tang Dynasty and crushed the miscellaneous pieces of Goguryeo! "Mo Hu'er was picked up by Luo Shixin. is alert enough, and many times can cooperate with Luo Shixin's style of play.

Luo Shixin has the courage of an overlord and pulls mountains and rivers, but in the battlefield of more than 10,000 people, there is really little room for individual bravery, but as long as there are soldiers to cooperate, the results of Luo Shixin's fight will be expanded, and the entire battle will be shaken.

Luo Shixin did not lead his Jiesheng army, the Jiesheng army and Luo Shixin cooperated tacitly, they could catch this kind of fighter, but this time the 3,000 cavalry led by Luo Shixin did not have this consciousness. They are brave and brave, and they are inferior in cooperation after all.

This is also a helpless thing, the Jiesheng Army has the combat effectiveness to turn things around, and Luo Shixin still keeps a hand just in case.

The three thousand cavalry couldn't cooperate with Luo Shixin, but Mo Hu'er had this consciousness, seeing that Luo Shixin's divine might was displayed, breaking through the multi-layer crowd, and illuminating the turmoil within the enemy's army, he did not hesitate to boost his morale and impatiently killed the leader. The other soldiers were greatly encouraged when they saw that the commanders of the three armies were brave and brave at the expense of their lives.

With the support of the foot soldiers, Luo Shixin led the middle route army to advance layer by layer, directly defeating the Goguryeo soldiers one after another.

The Goguryeo general Gao Tubo stood on a high hill to the east and looked down on the battlefield, taking in the current situation of Goguryeo, which was not optimistic.

This area has a relatively vast terrain, the terrain is low in the west and high in the east, and choosing to fight here can give full play to their two major advantages of standing on the upper hand, fighting low with high and fighting low, and far superior to the Tang army in terms of troops. The most important reason for choosing this terrain is to let the Tang army retreat in the face of difficulties and dispel their thoughts of attacking. He had already received news from the Tang army, and saw that the Tang army was blocking the main road for their reinforcements to Jian'an, and thought that the purpose of the Tang army was to prevent them from supporting Jian'an and Liaodong. I never imagined that the Tang army would attack directly, and he fought so resolutely that he did not hesitate at all, so that he did not have time to rest.

Originally, he thought that even if they would be inferior to each other in physical strength, they had a solid advantage in strength, and a little geographical advantage had a better chance of winning, and this confrontation only found that the combat effectiveness of the Tang army's soldiers was far beyond his expectations, especially the figure who was like a bad star, just single-handedly disrupted his gun formation, and easily tore and destroyed his formation.

"He's Luo Shixin! The demon who killed the god of war! ”

Even now, there is still a legend that the demons who came to the Central Plains were killed by the Thousand Armies who killed their Goguryeo savior, the god Eulji Moondeok......

Gao Tubo had never met with Luo Shixin, nor did he know Luo Shixin, but looking at the evil star who came and went freely on the battlefield and slashed and killed the brave soldiers one by one, Luo Shixin's three words instinctively came to mind.

Looking at the legendary figure, I felt a sense of powerlessness: the battle has reached this point, it is already suppressed in strength, and in the face of Luo Shixin's fierce killing, it is only a matter of time before the Chinese army collapses.

At this time, his face was like a cooper, and he couldn't see the slightest change in his expression, but he was secretly anxious in his heart.

This initial battle has been strengthened, and if it is consumed, the problem of the physical strength of the soldiers will be more reflected, and the gap between the two sides will widen and widen, and finally let the Tang army be defeated.

This made the Tang army crushed, and the next situation was definitely not something he could afford.

The Tang Dynasty soldiers took Liaoshui without blood, and the speed of the troops and the effect of the attack were beyond Goguryeo's expectations. The whole country of Goguryeo did not expect that Goguryeo's best defensive general, the general Yuan Binzhi, who had made Yang Guang's million-strong army deflated, could not withstand the attack of the Tang army at all, and the Great Wall that had been carefully built for ten years did not achieve any effect, and there was a certain delay in the deployment of troops to support. The 35,000 troops he led were the only troops that could support Liaodong in the near future. If he is defeated, it will be impossible to have reinforcements to support Liaodong in the short term.

Once Liaodong is obtained by Datang, it is not easy to take it back.

But with the suppression of this strength, he really couldn't think of a strategy to deal with it.

"General, I've done my best, it's really irresistible!" A retired general, clutching his broken arm, bleeding profusely, panting like an ox, on horseback, the whole person was shaky.

Gao Tubo was silent, and the general who spoke was the first fierce general under his command called Gao Quan, because the middle lane was tight, he was specially sent to press him to stabilize the situation. Gao Quan bravely killed six Tang cavalry in his first contact with the Tang army, temporarily stabilizing his retreat. However, before they could gain a firm foothold, Luo Shixin was the first to detect the situation and led the troops to kill. In just one round, Gao Quan's arm was cut off by Luo Shixin. Gao Quan's personal guards took more than 50 lives before they reluctantly snatched Gao Quan back and saved his life.

Gao Tubo looked at the grief-stricken Gao Quan, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said sharply: "If you can't stop it, you won't stop it." Lao Tzu today to Luo Shixin, admit it. Hold me in the middle of the lane, and I can delay as long as I can. The left and right flanks attacked forward with all their might, broke through the defense line of the Tang army, and ran towards Jian'an City. Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil, my army of 35,000, he can eat all of them. It's also good to be able to rush out of five thousand. ”

With nothing to do, Gao Tu Bo became angry, and the jar was broken.

I have to say that this forced desperate gamble has achieved unexpected results.

There was a slight fluctuation in the right flank of the Don Army.

In the face of Goguryeo's intensified offensive on the left and right flanks, Ma Wenju, the commander of Guoyi, raised his head and laughed indifferently: "If you don't meet a strong enemy, how can you show a strong man!" Soldiers, kill me with me! ”

Ma Wenju was originally a Sui general, a general in the Xiaoguo Army of the Sui Dynasty, and his courage and martial arts were extraordinary, giving the Goguryeo breakout soldiers a head-on blow, and directly broke a group of Goguryeo soldiers from the middle and broke them into two. The upper and lower soldiers of Goguryeo received special instructions, and the soldiers who were divided into two waves did not cooperate with each other, but brainlessly broke forward.

Inspired by the survival **, these two Goguryeo soldiers who were torn apart rarely broke out with a strong will to fight, chaotic and fierce.

The strength of the Tang army did not have an advantage, and Zhang Junyi, the commander of the march, faced this mad dog-like counterattack, could not resist, could not hold the pressure, retreated, and directly sold the brave Marven in front, and the right wing was faintly in danger of collapse.
