Chapter 514 The Khitan Hao rode majesticly
In the smoke and dust, the speed of the enemy is extremely fast, but in a moment it has been like a whirlwind to the bottom of the Broken Gut Ridge, the Goguryeo soldiers who were originally nervously preparing for the battle saw the true face of the enemy, not only were they not shocked, but at the same time they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they scolded in chaos - the enemy is coming, but it is not the Tang Dynasty strong army that Goguryeo is afraid of, but the Khitan cavalry wearing tattered clothes, the number is only about 1,000 not to mention, the weapons in their hands are also varied, there are all kinds of things, this is like a cavalry army, It's no different from a group of people called Huazi, you must know that the Khitan tribe at this time is not a powerful tribe that established the Great Liao in later generations, it is just an ordinary small clan in Liaodong, not to mention compared with Goguryeo, it is compared to the big tribes such as Yan and Xi, it is completely a bunch of uncivilized barbarians, long before the Tang Dynasty, Goguryeo sent troops to sweep the Khitan tribe, and it was very easy to kill, at this time it turned out to be the Khitan Yankees, and the Goguryeo generals were in an uproar when they landed, Scolders abound.
"General Gao, the last general asks to go to war!"
"General Gao, how can we allow this little Kou to run rampant and kill them all!"
"General Gao, just give the order, kill the fuck!"
……
A group of Goguryeo generals originally suppressed the scolding of their soldiers, but when they saw that the Khitan people were screaming nonsense at the foot of the mountain, they couldn't help it, and surrounded Gao Keye, and everyone volunteered to kill them down the mountain, making Gao Keye extremely noisy.
"Shut up!" Gao Keye couldn't bear it, he couldn't help yelling, and finally suppressed the noisy and noisy generals under him, and looked at the Khitan cavalry showing off his might at the foot of the mountain with a pale face, and didn't say a word for a long time - the Khitan cavalry Gao Keye didn't take it to heart at all, let alone such a few people in front of him, even if it was doubled, Gao Keye would not look at it, in his mind, if he sent his own troops, he would only need an impact to sweep away the garbage at the foot of the mountain, but unfortunately he didn't dare to move lightly, Just because the responsibility on his shoulders is too heavy, if he really kills himself down the mountain, in case the Tang army suddenly kills, Chifeng Village will be dangerous, if Chifeng Village is lost so easily, even if he Gao Keye can escape with his life, he can't escape the disposal of military law, rather than this, it is better to stick to the camp and be strong in response to all changes.
"Sons, continue to scold Lao Tzu!" A burly man in the Khitan cavalry formation saw that there was no movement in the Chifeng Village, his heart was on fire, he took a step forward, pointed to the direction of the cottage, and drank loudly, this person was the Khitan patriarch Yelu Huainan.
Yelu Huainan was not originally called this name, but called Yelu Awuda, when Li Shimin conquered Goguryeo before, Yelu Awuda also led the elite soldiers of the clan to echo, in order to show loyalty, he simply changed the name to Yelu Huainan, which means that the heart is to the Tang Dynasty, but it is a pity that Yelu Huainan's thoughts are obviously in vain, neither did he catch the battle, nor did he win the trust of the Tang Dynasty, it was purely a march with the Tang army, and the benefits were not much, but he was tired and half dead, but, Later, when Cheng Mingzhen passed through Liaodong, Yelu Huainan followed the Tang army to fight a few victories, and he picked up a lot of cheap, and the woman's treasure was very happy, this time the Tang army went out again, Yelu Huainan was like a wolf who smelled the fishy smell, not to mention how excited, not only led the troops to come, but also rushed to fight the vanguard, swearing that he would bring a thousand cavalry to take Chifeng Village, and I don't know what kind of considerations Cheng Mingzhen had, he actually agreed to Yelu Huainan's request, and that's it, Yelu Huainan led his troops to lead the army for a day's journey to the bottom of the Broken Intestine Ridge.
Take Gaimu City, but the troops can rob for three days! This is a great reward, as soon as I thought of the promise of the future of the departure, I was immediately so excited that I couldn't help myself, and all Yelu Huainan had to do was to take down the Chifeng Village in front of him, which was a hundred times easier than attacking Gaimu City covered by the city wall, but this person came here, and he scolded the battle for a long time, and the Goguryeo defenders were not out of the shell, which made Yelu Huainan angry, but he was helpless - although Yelu Huainan was fierce, But he was not stupid enough to take his 1,000 cavalry to the point of attacking Chifeng Village, so he was angry, but Yelu Huainan had no way to take the Goguryeo defenders, and besides, the war horse galloped and called for a long time, and the horsepower at this time was also tired, and the soldiers who scolded the formation were also tired, it was time to rest, and the helpless Yelu Huainan had to wave his hand stupidly, and shouted: "Get off the horse, get off the horse, and continue to scold after eating, ***, see how long those bastards can endure." ”
A group of Khitan cavalry rushed for a few days, at this time they were already tired, as soon as they heard the order of the patriarch of the family to have a meal, how could there be two words, they turned over and dismounted, took off the dry food from their respective saddles, sat on the ground in groups of three or five, and ate the mare's milk, and even more, they actually set up a grill and roasted the whole sheep, so that the foot of the mountain was in chaos, not like they came to fight, but like they came to go on an outing, and the lazy and lazy appearance made the Goguryeo soldiers in the cottage so angry that their eyes were red, The shouting and scolding sounded, if it weren't for Gao Keye always standing on the wall of the wall to suppress the formation, the angry people were afraid that they would immediately kill down the mountain.
"General Gao, the enemy army is in chaos, and it seems to be combatable." In the midst of the scolding, Gao Keye's lieutenant couldn't bear it anymore, walked to Gao Keye's side, and asked for instructions with an indignant face.
"Don't be busy, wait." Although Gao Keye was also choked by the arrogance of the Khitan cavalry, as the main general, he didn't want to be emotional, gritted his teeth, forcibly resisted the urge to attack, and replied without looking back.
"Wait? General, when will this be? The last general asked for orders to lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to attack, and swore not to be a man if he didn't kill all these bastards! A thousand-household chief standing beside Gao Keye shouted angrily.
"Yes, General Gao, even those people who dare to come and provoke, kill them, and destroy them!"
"General Gao, these gangs are too rampant, whether they are tolerable or unbearable, you just give the order, how can we be insulted like this!"
……
Gao Keye's generals didn't want to endure it anymore, and they all made their own words, all of them wanted to fight, which made Gao Keye dizzy, and almost agreed to it, but when the words came to his mouth, he still forcibly held back, and ignored the noise of the generals, just looked at the mountain silently, as if waiting for something.
The Khitan cavalry at the foot of the mountain was noisy, very casual, and even the traveling cavalry sentry was not dispatched, and the whole army sat around idly, eating and drinking, and did not forget to point to the cottage and scold a few times, roar a few times, and shout noisily as if rushing to a market, and did not notice that several Goguryeo rangers behind him were quietly approaching from the side and rear, until a Khitan cavalry inadvertently looked back and found the incoming horseman, and shouted wildly, and the Khitan cavalry reacted, Immediately, more than a dozen Khitan warriors with the fastest reaction jumped on horseback, rushed over, and tried to intercept the few three or five Goguryeo cavalry, but the movement was a little slower than half a beat, and failed to rob people, after chasing for a while, they were shot back by the random arrows in the cottage, and they could only watch the Goguryeo cavalry rush into the stockade under the cover of many archers in the stockade.
Gao Keye was waiting for these ranger spies who had been sent out earlier to inquire about the news, and when he saw that the spies had returned to the village, he was excited, and he didn't care about the generals on the side, and rushed down the wall of the wall in three steps and two steps, and hurriedly asked, "How is the movement of the Tang Army?" Where is the army now? ”
"General, the main force of the Tang Army has crossed the Liao River, and is now marching to our village, and has arrived at Sanlitun, the main general is Cheng Mingzhen, with a strength of about 40,000 troops and nearly 10,000 cavalry." A cavalryman who was obviously the leader of the spies saw that Gao Keye was asking urgently, and he couldn't care about his breathing, and hurriedly bowed down to tell the news he had received in one breath.
"Sanlitun?" As soon as Gao Keye heard the name of this place, he was stunned - Sanlitun is more than 100 miles away from Chifeng Village, that is, the cavalry is dispatched, and it takes about three hours to arrive, if it is a march on foot, it will take a day to say less, it is obvious, the Khitan cavalry under the mountain is just a lone army, but the question is how can this group of Khitan cavalry who have no backup at all dare to be so arrogant, is it because they have eaten the gall of the leopard?
"Is that true? Is there any sign of the Tang cavalry? Gao Keye hesitated, but still asked in detail.
The leader of the spies replied without hesitation: "General, what your subordinates say is true, the Tang army is not fast, and there is no sign of dividing the troops. ”
"Oh?" Gao Keye sighed lightly, and when he heard the commotion at the foot of the mountain, he still didn't stop, and the anger in his heart couldn't bear it anymore, so he pulled out the sword on his waist, slashed it, and ordered loudly: "The whole army will attack and kill all the Khitan dogs!" At this order, the Goguryeo defenders, who had long been extremely uncomfortable, cheered, shouted and rushed out of the walled gate, swarming down the mountain.
Yelu Huainan had long been paying attention to the movements of Chifeng Village, and those Goguryeo spies were actually deliberately let go by Yelu Huainan, in order to deceive the Goguryeo defenders out of the village, at this time, seeing Chifeng Village's big move, not only was he not surprised, but he was ecstatic, laughed and waved his hand: "Get on the horse, ready to kill!" As soon as these words came out, the Khitan cavalry who were originally scattered on the ground quickly dropped the food in their hands, jumped on their horses, and did not stay in place, but ran their horses in an arc, retreated to a hundred feet away from the foot of the mountain, lined up in formation, and waited for the arrival of the Goguryeo army.
The Goguryeo defenders didn't take the Khitan cavalry seriously at all, and at this time they went down the mountain, coming very quickly, and they didn't arrange troops at all, so they rushed directly towards the Khitan cavalry formation, and Gao Keye took the lead in rushing to the forefront, and there was a charge that tore the Khitan cavalry formation into two sections.
"Sons, follow Lao Tzu and kill dog thieves!" Yelu Huainan saw that the formation of the Goguryeo army was chaotic, and he was overjoyed, waved the long horse lance in his hand, and after shouting excitedly, he rushed out in the first place, and more than 1,000 Khitan cavalry followed closely behind, quickly lined up in a triangular assault formation, and rushed towards the Goguryeo army like a sharp blade.
Yelu Huainan aimed at Gao Keye from afar, and the two sides were still a few steps away, Yelu Huainan immediately shouted: "Kill", and the long horse lance in his hand stabbed fiercely and went straight to Gao Keye's chest.
Yelu Huainan aimed at Gao Keye, and similarly, Gao Keye also aimed at Yelu Huainan, with the same idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, but he didn't expect Yelu Huainan's gun to come so quickly, and in a panic, it was too late to dodge, so he could only wave his hands, and the long snatch in his hand swept horizontally, trying to sweep Yelu Huainan's horse lance away.
It was too late, it was fast, the two guns slammed into a loud "bang", and the weak Gao Keye could no longer hold the gun, but when he felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, the horse lance in his hand was shocked and flew up for a long time, and Yelu Huainan's gun momentum was only slightly off, and it still rushed towards Gao Keye's shoulder.
"Oops, not good!" Gao Keye obviously didn't expect Yelu Huainan's strength to be so great, and when he was shocked to find that the tip was approaching, he turned pale with fright, tried his best to build an iron plate bridge, lay on his back on the horse, and finally narrowly avoided the thrust of the tip of the spear, kicked the horse's belly with his feet, and ran away into the oblique spur.
"Hahaha, rubbish!" Yelu Huainan didn't pay attention to Gao Keye who fled in the wilderness, laughed and brandished the horse lance and killed into the Goguryeo army, stabbing left and right to kill happily, but seeing that the tip of the spear was swallowed, there was no enemy under his subordinates, and more than a dozen people were killed in an instant, and a group of Khitan cavalry saw that the patriarch of the family was so mighty, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they shouted and slaughtered, on the other hand, the Goguryeo cavalry that took the lead was defeated by the main general, and the momentum was taken away, coupled with the chaos of its own formation, how could it stop the wolf-like Khitan cavalry, In an instant, they were crushed by a single blow, and they scattered to both sides, revealing the Goguryeo infantry that was busy arranging the formation when they saw that the situation was not good.
The reaction of the Goguryeo infantry is not not fast, but it is a pity that the previous rush was too fierce, the team was scattered, how could it be arranged for a while and a half, and before the Goguryeo army put on an appearance, the Khitan cavalry that was like a thunderbolt had already been killed in front, the two sides were just a contact, and the Goguryeo infantry formation that had not yet been formed had been broken through, and the chaotic army ran all over the mountains, how could there be the pride when they went down the mountain before, everyone only hated that their father and mother had a few legs, and they were desperately defeated and retreated, but how could they get faster than the war horse under the crotch of the Khitan cavalry, All the Goguryeo officers and soldiers who wanted to return to the village to guard were all tragically killed under the swords and guns of the Khitan cavalry.
"Go up the mountain, grab the village!" Yelu Huainan didn't pay attention to the Goguryeo rebels who fled left and right, brandished his horse lance to kill the rout soldiers in front of him one by one, and led a group of his men to kill Chifeng Village, which had only a few defenders.
When Gao Keye ordered the whole army to attack, all the Goguryeo officers and soldiers were red-eyed, everyone wanted to make meritorious contributions, and no one was willing to stay and guard the village, and when Yelu Huainan was killed, there were less than 100 Goguryeo officers and soldiers who were still guarding the Chifeng village. At that time, because of the uphill terrain, the speed of the Khitan cavalry has slowed down, except for more than 100 cavalry fast soldiers can follow closely behind Yelu Huainan, the rest are a big step behind, if the Goguryeo defenders stabilize their position, as long as the gate is not broken, the Goguryeo army that has begun to reassemble under the mountain is bound to be able to flank the Khitan cavalry before and after, and it is unknown to regain the initiative in the war again.
"Kill it, knock it open!" Yelu Huainan is clear about his own situation, and his goal is also very clear, that is, to take Chifeng Village in one go, as for how many Goguryeo defenders can be eliminated, it doesn't matter at all, at this time, when he saw that the defenders in the village were busy arranging the formation, he immediately yelled, Pegasus pounced towards the gate of the village, and the long horse lance in his hand picked left and right, and swept away the scattered arrows one by one, and fought bravely to the gate of the village, and shouted: "Open!" The long horse lance in his hand stabbed at the gate of the wall, but listened to the sound of "poof", the horse lance actually pierced the thick plank with the momentum of the horse, several Goguryeo soldiers who were hiding behind the door and carrying the door were also stabbed through the heart by this domineering shot, and the screams just started, I saw Yelu Huainan shake his wrists with both hands, and a strong force surged forward, and the gate shook violently, and then the Khitan cavalry who killed him did the same, and they rushed towards the gate with their guns, but they heard a loud sound of "boom", The gate of the village could not withstand the impact of the huge force, and it fell down with a bang.
"Kill it!" As soon as he saw the door of the village open, Yelu Huainan dropped the horse lance that he stabbed on the door panel, pulled out his waist knife, and took the lead in the village, and the Khitan cavalry behind was unwilling to slack off, and rushed into Chifeng Village, killing the Goguryeo defenders who tried to resist stubbornly, so far, it was a foregone conclusion that Chifeng Village would fall into the hands of the Khitan cavalry!
At the foot of the mountain, Gao Keye, who had just gathered more than 2,000 defeated troops, originally planned to carry the butt of the Khitan cavalry to attack on both sides, but when he saw that the gate of the village had been broken, his heart was half cold, and he was stunned to watch the Khitan cavalry cheering and killing into the village, and he was so remorseful that he wanted to kill and recapture the cottage, but when he thought of Yelu Huainan's fierceness, he really didn't have the courage, and after standing silently at the foot of the mountain for a long time, he gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and ordered with a black face: "Retreat, go back to Gaimu City." As soon as the words fell, the defeated soldiers fled along the path under the Broken Gut Ridge in the direction of Gaimu City, and the Khitan cavalry on the mountain did not chase the enemy Long Wushuwu, but just laughed and watched the Goguryeo cavalry flee.
After Chifeng Village, the door of Gaimu City has been opened, and Cheng Mingzhen's department, which was returned by Yelu Huainan, immediately accelerated the speed of the march, and rushed to the direction of Chifeng Village, and the war has begun......
