Chapter 971: Battle Tachibana Family!
4,500 Mongol cavalry passed through the saddle between Wangkehyeon and entered the small plain.
Di Qing left another 500 Mongol cavalry to guard the pass to ensure that the rear road was safe, and then carried the dragon sword, took the lead, and continued to move south.
"Dongying cavalry was found ahead, the number is unknown!"
Dozens of Mongolian commanders and centurions looked at Di Qing in unison.
Di Qing could decide whether to attack immediately or stick to Wangkehyeon.
This kind of broken terrain, there are many mountains, and almost all the enemies are in the south of Stone-hyeon, and both sides are full of scouts, and it is basically impossible to find out the strength of the other party, and can only rely on the experience and adaptability of the generals, as well as ...... Luck.
"Most of them are just the vanguard of the other party, but they can be defeated!"
Di Qing, as always, roughly judged that the opponent's troops were not many, so he immediately attacked. He left 500 Mongol cavalry to guard the Biho Pavilion, another 500 Mongol cavalry to guard the Saddle Pass, and 4,000 Mongol cavalry.
Di Qing put on a hideous bronze mask to hide the tattoos on his face, his cape was scattered, his wrist was flipped, and the dragon knife was ready to kill the enemy at any time.
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen's 2,000 samurai, ashigaru, and cavalry mixed troops were used as the enemy lure troops, and according to the arrangement of Tachibana Michiyuki, they showed weakness and lured the enemy first, attracting the vanguard of the Xia army, and then the main force of the Tachibana family cooperated with the odd army to flank the attack and annihilate the vanguard of the Xia army and improve morale.
"If you capture the enemy scout leader alive, you must kill him!"
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen carried a few javelins with him, and his main weapon was a large naginata.
According to Tachibana Michiyuki's estimates, the vanguard of the Xia army is only a few thousand people at most, and with the strength of the Tachibana family, most of them can be eaten.
"Ahead is the cavalry of the Xia army!"
"Very well, engage it and lead it to the center!"
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen was not afraid of encountering Di Qing's Mongolian cavalry, but chose to follow the deployment of Tachibana Michiyuki to engage Di Qing, pretending to be defeated.
The two squads met on the broken plain between Wangkexian and Lishihyeon, and Di Qing's Mongol cavalry launched a swift offensive!
The 1,000 Mongol cavalry soldiers divided into two routes, detouring from both sides, and it seemed that they did not intend to give Lian Zhen a chance to retreat at ten o'clock!
The two armies are fighting, and the rain of arrows covers the sky and the sun!
The Mongol cavalry rolled off their horses after being hit by an arrow and was drowned by the cavalry in the rear!
The Toei samurai and ashigaru pikemen were shot by the Mongol bow and fell in pieces!
"Fight and retreat!"
Originally, Ten Hour Lianzhen wanted to retreat after the engagement, but the Mongolian cavalry, who were proficient in horsemanship, acted faster, cut off Ten Hour Lianzhen's retreat in time, and inserted between the advance and middle formation of the Tachibana Army!
Di Qing's offensive was too fast, unlike the cautious temptation of ordinary generals, Lian Zhen didn't have time to retreat at ten o'clock, and was outflanked by the Mongolian cavalry!
The vanguard of 2,000 men fell into the siege of 4,000 Mongol cavalry!
The horses of the Mongol cavalry galloped, constantly harassing the army formation of Lianzhen at ten o'clock.
The Tachibana samurai, trapped in it, looked around in horror, and all they could see were Mongol war horses.
The Mongol cavalry carried two quivers, meaning that each cavalry carried more than 40 arrows, which was enough to support a large battle.
The Mongols bowed flexibly and threw at the encircled Ten O'Clock Lianzhen Army in a roundabout!
At ten o'clock, the samurai and ashigaru around Lianzhen were killed by arrows one after another, and even at ten o'clock, Lianzhen's armor was hung with a few arrows!
"My lord, there is a Xia army cavalry blocking our retreat, and we can't retreat!"
"Damn! Break through to the south! ”
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen fell into hysteria, he had no choice, if he continued to be surrounded, his troops would be completely annihilated!
At ten o'clock, Lianzhen personally led a team of samurai and tried to open the situation.
Dozens of javelins were projected, piercing through a few Mongol cavalrymen who had no time to dodge and killing them!
The Tachibana family has a tradition of using javelins, and after throwing the javelin, at ten o'clock Rensada charges with a large naginata.
The Mongol cavalry slashed at the Tachibana family, holding back the vanguard of the Tachibana family, not giving it any chance to escape.
"My lord, the first formation is besieged by the Xia army!"
You Bu Weixin, who commanded the middle battle, learned that Lian Zhen was severely injured by the Xia cavalry at ten o'clock, and his expression was solemn: "You, immediately go with me to support!" As for the two of you, go and inform your lordship! ”
500 cavalry led by Bu Weixin broke away from the center and tried to join up with Lianzhen at 10 o'clock.
"Kill!"
Di Qing wore a hideous mask, and the dragon knife slashed more than a dozen naginata cavalry, and blood splashed on Di Qing's bronze mask, making Di Qing look very terrifying.
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen's army formation was broken through by Di Qing, and Di Qing was in the enemy formation as if he was in a no-man's land!
The broadsword rolls and the samurai blood splatters!
At ten o'clock, Lian Zhen suffered the enemy on his back, and the original tactic of showing weakness and luring the enemy became a lone army.
The Mongol cavalry was inserted between the advance and middle formations of the Tachibana family, and when Yubu Weixin tried to save Shishilian Zhen, the Mongolian cavalry immediately intercepted Yubu Weixin's cavalry.
The equipment of the Mongolian cavalry was different from that of other cavalry, and the Mongolian cavalry was recognized by Bu Weixin, and his face was not very good-looking.
The mongol cavalry was terrible, and only a few cavalry could compete with it.
Yubu Weixin desperately joined up with Lianzhen at ten o'clock, and Tachibana's family came one after another.
"You must save Shishi Lianzhen, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Shishi's family."
Tachibana Michiyuki couldn't help but have a headache and immediately mobilized his troops and horses.
Ono Zhenyuki's surprise team received an order, and 800 cavalry moved in the direction of Ten O'Clock Lianzhen, wanting to rescue Ten Hour Lianzhen.
The vanguard of the two armies has turned into a melee.
However, Shishi Lianzhen, who was attacked by Di Qing, had been beheaded by Di Qing!
At ten o'clock, the samurai around Lianzhen fell into a panic.
The ten-hour Lianzhen of the Four Heavenly Kings of Tachibana Mountain Castle died in an encounter like this, and he was unable to complete the task given to him by the head of the family, Tachibana Michiyuki!
Di Qing's big sword slashed horizontally, harvesting the warriors around Lian Zhen at ten o'clock.
"General, there seem to be more and more enemies around!"
The Mongol cavalry reminded Di Qing.
Di Qing is still struggling to harvest the vanguard of Ten Hour Lianzhen and expand the results.
The main forces of the Tachibana Army in the rear arrived one after another and pulled with the Mongol cavalry.
Di Qing led the Mongol cavalry to repeatedly storm the Tachibana army.
The military commander of the Tachibana family, Ono Zhenyuki, led a surprise army to fight from the flanks and oppress the Mongol cavalry.
Tachibana Michiyuki also went into battle in person, trying his best to suppress the Mongol cavalry.
A group of Taiji banners appeared, and the Goryeo general Jiang Handan led 10,000 Goryeo cavalry to cross the stone and join the attack on Di Qing with Tachibana Doxue.
Di Qing fought and retreated, retreating in the direction of Wangkexian.
In the rear, Prince Yan's Mongolian cavalry also arrived at Wangkexian and Bihu Pavilion one after another.
Prince Yan boarded Wangkexian and saw Di Qing's cavalry fighting with the soldiers of Tachibana and Goryeo, so he immediately mobilized more Mongolian cavalry to pass through Wangkexian and join the battle!
Tens of thousands of people fought, and the Mongol cavalry charged several times, trying to repel the opposing side.
To the south, the Fire Dragon Legion of the United States and the Shimazu Legion of Kyushu Island arrived on the battlefield one after another, and flags spread all over the mountains.
"I need a fierce general to open the western road pass of Lishixian, go around to the rear of the enemy army, cut off the passage between Lishixian and Kaijing, and completely annihilate the enemy army between Kexian and Lishihyeon!"
"Let the last general go!"
Gongsun Fan, the younger brother of Gongsun Zhan, took the initiative to ask Prince Yan for war.
Prince Yan frowned slightly.
After Gongsun Chan's death, Gongsun Chan's family was taken care of by his sworn brother, Prince Yan.
Gongsun Fan was not capable enough to compete with the Goryeo coalition army for the West Road Pass of Liseokhyeon, because his commander value was 73 and his force was 69, so he could only be regarded as a third- or fourth-rate cavalry general.
"I'm going to fight for it myself."
Prince Yan still decided to take action himself.
