Chapter 428, Demon War Horse
Fujita Hiromichi said: "We have already investigated the situation of the Han people. The people who came were all the Yan Yun army from the north of the Han people, and there were nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses in total! Fujita Hiromichi only said that the current Yanyun Army has 100,000 people, but he didn't say that there were less than 10,000 people before, obviously to cover up his own shame. In fact, Yan Yun's main force had just landed in Haizhou, and before that, there were only 7,000 Yan Yun troops on the Haizhou side. Fujita Hiromichi believed that if there were only 7,000 people before, they would definitely be laughed at by Musashi Yu, and when it reached the ears of the general, it would inevitably be condemned, so Fujita Hiromichi ambiguously concealed part of the truth.
Musashi Xiong was a little surprised when he heard that Yan Yunjun was coming with 100,000, but then he said contemptuously: "Others say that Yan Yunjun is powerful, but I don't take them seriously!" General Ben's army of 100,000 is more than enough to destroy his 100,000 soldiers and horses! Honda Tadakatsu said proudly: "I have heard of Yanyun Warriors for a long time, I think I will meet them!" Then he patted the treasure knife on his waist, "My knife hasn't drunk human blood for a long time, and I'm already hungry and thirsty!" ”
Nishinochong exclaimed: "With Honduojun coming out, Yan Yun is a fierce general or something, but he is just a native chicken and a tile dog!" Honda Tadakatsu laughed, very proud.
Musashi asked Hiromichi Fujita; "Is Yan Yunjun in Haizhou?"
Fujita Hiromichi replied, "It's all in Haizhou." By the way, the main general who led this Yan Yun army was none other than King Yan himself. Musashio and Honda Tadakatsu's eyes lit up, and Honda Tadakatsu said excitedly: "Then King Yan couldn't be better here!" Killing one Yan King is better than killing a hundred enemy generals! I heard that King Yan is one of the strongest warriors among the Han people, and I want to let the Han people and the world know that even if he is the strongest warrior among the Han people, he is vulnerable under the sword of my Honda Tadashi! "Thinking of the megatronage after killing the Yan King Yang Peng, every cell of Honda Tadakatsu beat with excitement.
Musashi Xiong said: "Since the Yanyun army is all in Haizhou, there is no need to delay time, the army will rest for a day and march to Haizhou early tomorrow morning!" Everyone cheered in unison.
Musashio glanced at Fujita Hiromichi and said, "This Kaegyo is not only the most important big city in Goryeo, but also the throat key to the north and the south, and it is necessary to leave people on guard. Fujita-kun, you and your subordinates will continue to guard Kaijing. ”
Fujita Hiromichi's heart was bright, knowing that Musashi Xiong had left him out of this big battle, it was nothing more than that he was afraid that he would rob him of his credit, and he couldn't help but be angry in his heart. However, there was no dissatisfaction on his face, and he bowed respectfully and said, "Obey the order." Musashi nodded proudly, turned his head to Honda Tadakatsu and said, "Pass the order, the army will rest for a day, and set off for Haizhou tomorrow." Honda Tadakatsu bowed and let out a sigh of relief.
At this time, a dusty herald rushed in, knelt down and said: "Your Excellency General, Your Excellency the General defeated the Goryeo Army in Xijing and occupied Xijing, and the remnants of Goryeo continue to flee north!" ”
Everyone was overjoyed to hear such good news, and Musashi said with great ambition: "Providence is on our side of the Yamato nation!" The general defeated the Goryeo army and occupied Xijing, and the general will inevitably defeat the Han people and seize Haizhou! Everyone nodded, all very excited. ……
Yang Peng and Ye Yu Guanyin walked side by side on the city wall, at this time the sun was setting, the smoke curled in the city, the lonely crane and the sunset outside the city took off, and there was a peaceful scene between heaven and earth. Yang Peng turned his head to look at Ye Yu Guanyin, looking at her beautiful and resolute face, his heart couldn't help but be full of gentle feelings. Ya Yu Guanyin noticed that the eldest brother was looking at him, glared at him angrily, and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Yang Peng smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Ye Yu Guanyin's slender hand, turned his head to look at the sunset in the sky, and couldn't help but say: "I really want to do nothing, hide in a beautiful place, and accompany my wife to have a son!" Ye Yu Guanyin suddenly pulled out his hand, slapped Yang Peng's shoulder, and said angrily: "Are you a sow?" ”
Yang Peng smiled, re-grasped the slender hand of Ye Yu Guanyin, leaned over, and said with a wicked smile: "If you were a sow, wouldn't I be a boar?" Ye Yu Guanyin laughed, picked up his fist and gently slapped Yang Peng's chest, and said angrily: "King Yan, who is powerful in the world, is so unserious!" Yang Peng grabbed Ye Yu Guanyin's fist, put it to his lips and kissed it lightly, Ye Yu Guanyin's heart fluttered, and he looked at Yang Peng with affection. Yang Peng said softly: "Pigs are not pigs, that doesn't matter at all!" In short, you are my woman, I am your man, this is the case in this life, forever and ever! The sky is wasted and the earth is old, and this love is unswerving! ”
Ye Yan Guanyin's eyes trembled, and she couldn't help but lean into Yang Peng's arms and murmured, "You will always be my man!" If you don't want me one day, I'll kill you and kill myself!" Yang Peng's intestines turned a thousand times, and the hand holding Ye Yu Guanyin's waist couldn't help but tighten. Looking up at the sky in the distance, I saw a pair of unknown big birds flying high in the sky, and hurriedly pointed to the pair of big birds and said, "Look! Ya Kannon looked in the direction of his finger, and also saw the pair of big birds, and couldn't help but move his heart, and said with a wistful face: "It would be great if we were like those big birds!" ”
Yang Peng smiled: "Aren't we now?" Yari Guanyin shook his head and said, "No. Then he pointed to a line of geese in the sky and said, "We are like that!" Yang Peng glanced at the wild geese, first stunned, and then couldn't help but be embarrassed.
Outside the city, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves. The two of them withdrew their gaze and looked out of the city, only to see a scout galloping on horseback. The hearts of the two couldn't help but move, and Yayu Guanyin said: "It must be that Musashi Xiong has made a move!" Yang Peng nodded.
After a while, the scout rushed into the city gate, came to the two of them, and knelt down and said, "King Qiyuyan, the 100,000-strong army led by Musashi, the general of the Japanese people, has left Kaijing and is marching to this side. Yang Peng said: "Explore again." The scout answered and ran down.
Ya Yu Guanyin said sarcastically: "This Musashi Xiong is not small, 100,000 soldiers and horses dare to attack us!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "Don't look at the short stature of the Japanese people, in fact, they are so ambitious, they don't know how powerful they are if they are not beaten all over the ground to find teeth!" Then he thought: "They took the initiative to attack me, and the previous plan had to be adjusted slightly." ”
The news that 100,000 Japanese troops were coming to attack made the Goryeo people in Haeju who had not had time to withdraw from the city be terrified. However, when they saw that the soldiers of Yan Yunjun were all looking as usual, this panic couldn't help but be reduced by more than half. That night, in addition to sending scouts to reconnoiter the opponent's movements, all the soldiers of the army were recuperating in the city.
Two days later, in the morning, the scouts reported that the Japanese army had reached the wilderness thirty miles east of Haizhou, and that the advance was only ten miles away from Haizhou City. Ya Yu Guanyin said to Yang Peng: "The Japanese are now in arrogance, it is better to send a team of Xuanjia troops to annihilate the opponent's forward first, so as to stimulate them to come over and fight as soon as possible!" ”
Yang Peng nodded, and said to Zhan Jin Guo: "Jin Guo, you lead five hundred Xuanjia troops to battle, you must destroy the enemy's vanguard in one go, but don't kill them all, let some go!" Zhan Jinguo clenched his fists and promised, and rushed down. A moment later, the gate of Haizhou was opened, and Zhan Jinguo led five hundred Xuanjia troops to rush out of the city gate and gallop towards the opponent, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling, and the smoke and dust billowed out, like a group of fierce tigers out of the box.
At the same time, a high-ranking samurai named Hikaru Midorikawa was leading 2,000 Japanese people as a vanguard to Haizhou. They climbed a hill and looked to the west, and saw a city of great size standing in the distance over the field. Lu Chuanguang's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he muttered, "Haizhou! As a striker, I will definitely make a contribution to make my colleagues respect me! "Pay attention in your heart, and go straight to Haizhou City to challenge the Yanyun Army in the city, although it is unlikely that you can take Haizhou City with more than 2,000 people, but it should be no problem to kill a few so-called Yanyun warriors! As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but say: "Just use the head of Yanyun to increase my merits!" ”
A mid-level samurai beside him suddenly pointed to the billowing smoke and dust below the hillside and shouted, "Someone is coming!" ”
Midorikawa Hikaru looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw a large cloud of smoke and dust rolling over quickly, and under the cover of the smoke and dust, there were hundreds of knights in black clothes and black armor. Lu Chuanguang immediately thought of a legend and said excitedly: "This is Yan Yun's elite Xuanjia Army!" Let's catch them up and kill them all! Lu Chuanguang was anxious to make meritorious service, so he wanted to eat the five hundred Yanyun Xuanjia army with two thousand infantry troops, and make a good start to this battle, what he was most worried about at the moment was that the five hundred Xuanjia army would be timid when they saw their two thousand men and horses, and then turned around and ran, in that way, his desire to make a first merit would be disappointed.
As soon as he thought of this, Midorikawa Hikaru ordered 1,500 people to stay on the hillside, and only led the 500 infantry army to rush down the hillside towards the Xuanjia army, even so, he was still worried that the opponent would turn around and flee.
However, what he feared most did not happen, and when his opponent saw them, he not only did not run, but accelerated to run. Seeing this scene, Midorikawa was very excited, it looked like a man saw the beautiful woman he liked running naked, and immediately screamed, and led his subordinates to meet him impatiently.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides met. The imaginary passion did not appear, and the Xuanjia War Horse was like countless sharp blades that instantly pierced through the Japanese people, trampled with iron hooves, and slashed with horizontal knives, only to see the Japanese people fall in a pool of blood, and the screams resounded. The Xuanjia war cavalry swept past the middle of the Japanese army, only to see that the Japanese people were already scattered all over the field, and almost half of the five hundred people died in the blink of an eye.
Hikaru Midorikawa and the remaining half of the Japanese people stood there stupidly, they were really frightened just now, they were also considered to have been in battle for a long time, but they had never encountered such a terrible situation, as if a violent storm swept over the sky, and in an instant there was darkness in front of them, and the screams of their own soldiers filled their ears, as if they were in the boundless darkness that covered the sky and the sun, and they only felt that they were incomparably small, and they could not fight against them at all. When he came back to his senses, the darkness that covered the sky and the earth had already left, but his own soldiers were already full of corpses! Such a swift offensive, such a fierce killing, they had never seen before! There was no anger or hatred in my heart, only fear, and I was glad that I was able to pick up a life under such a stormy killing.
Zhan Jin led five hundred war horses to run not far away, turned his horse's head, and rushed up again.
Midorikawa Hikaru and the others couldn't help but feel shocked when they saw that devilish black war horse swept in again. Midorikawa Hikaru's eyes showed a fierce color, and he raised his sword and shouted, "Kill!" The Japanese soldiers were originally scared, but when they heard the shout of Midorikawa Hikaru, a bloody and brave aura surged into their hearts, and they couldn't help but howl loudly, and rushed forward with their blades against the black war horse.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides met again, only to see a fierce and short fight, the cold light and blood rain flew together, and the remaining more than 200 Japanese people were basically killed, and even Lu Chuan Guang himself was killed by a shot by Zhanjin State, only a dozen Japanese people were still standing there, all trembling, and their eyes were full of fear. One of the widows screamed and turned and fled up the hillside, and the others quickly followed suit.
Zhan Jinguo led the 500 Xuanjia Army to start again, and drove the dozen or so Japanese who were fleeing for their lives towards the Japanese brigade on the hillside. Hikaru Midorikawa's deputy, the mid-level samurai, saw that his opponent was menacing, and hurriedly ordered the Japanese soldiers to prepare for battle. The 1,500 Japanese people on the hillside originally had the mentality of watching a play, and under the influence of the green river light, they thought that this battle would be easy, just like when they fought with the Koreans before, the opponent would definitely collapse at the touch of a button, and then it would be their own unilateral pursuit and killing them, but the development of things was far beyond expectations, and those black cavalry burst out with unimaginable terrifying combat power, like fierce tigers and demons, and the samurai of their own side could not resist the blade at all, and it could be said that they were invincible. In the blink of an eye, the five hundred people were all wiped out, but the 1,500 people on the hillside had not yet reacted, until Zhan Jinguo led the five hundred Xuanjia troops to rush over, and the middle-level warriors shouted at the top of their voices, and these 1,500 people woke up like a dream and suddenly woke up.
The 1,500 Japanese soldiers who reacted hurriedly lined up. The five hundred Xuanjia soldiers killed the dozen or so Japanese who fled in the process of charging, and then ran straight towards the Japanese army formation on the hillside. Seeing that the opponent was surging and murderous, as if it was unstoppable, the Japanese soldiers couldn't help but hold their breath and tense their nerves.
However, the five hundred Xuanjia army did not directly collide with the Japanese army formation, but suddenly divided into two groups dozens of steps in front of the opponent's army formation and turned to the two wings of the Japanese army formation. The Japanese soldiers watched as the galloping black warrior avoided the front and came to the weakly defended flank, and for a moment they were flustered, not knowing what to do, and the mid-level samurai in charge of the command was also at a loss. The Japanese are very bad at fighting in formations, and as for the higher-end temporary change of formations, they don't understand it even more, and the Japanese people think that fighting in formations is a cowardly behavior, so they never attach importance to the training of military formations in field battles. At this time, the Xuanjia army suddenly avoided the front of their defense and appeared on the flank of the weak defense, and the Japanese people felt that the matter was tricky and could not be dealt with.
The Japanese saw those fierce war horses like tigers and wolves slaughtering into the middle of the military formation, and subconsciously shouted wildly and fought hard, but how could the lightly armed infantry without the military formation as a support be the opponent of the war cavalry, not to mention that these war horses were still the Yanyun Xuanjia Army with the best combat power in the world! I saw that the Japanese people fell down one after another like a pin hit by a bowling ball, the corpses were bleeding and flying, and they couldn't resist at all, and the Xuanjia War Horse was indomitable as if it had entered a no-man's land!
Although the Japanese were fierce, but in the face of such a one-sided crazy killing, they soon couldn't resist, and as the first Japanese turned around and fled, all the Japanese turned around and fled for their lives, and the army was defeated! The Xuanjia war cavalry chased and fought for several miles, killed countless Japanese people, and then collected his troops and returned to the city.
The Japanese general Musashi Yuzheng led an army of 100,000 to march towards Haizhou City, when suddenly a message came from the scouts that the two thousand forwards of Midorikawa Hikaru had encountered Yanyun's war cavalry and the entire army was annihilated! Musashi Xiong and the others were shocked, Musashi Xiong frowned, and said angrily: "It's just nonsense, how is this possible!" ”
However, the defeat that appeared in view soon after showed him that what he didn't want to believe was true. Musashi Xiong asked those defeated soldiers to come to him, inquired about the situation, and learned that Yan Yun had only dispatched five hundred war cavalry, and almost wiped out his two thousand forwards! Boundless anger surged into his heart, and Musashi Xiong felt that he had been severely insulted, and immediately ordered the army to speed up and go straight to Haizhou to take revenge on Yan Yunjun's shame! Musashio originally planned to advance to a position ten miles away from Haizhou, rest for one night, and then attack the next day, but this plan was naturally canceled.
The 100,000 Japanese army advanced rapidly and arrived at the city of Haizhou in the afternoon. The war drums on the city wall of Haizhou rumbled, the city gate was opened, and 100,000 Yanyun troops poured out, with their backs to the city wall and lined up in formation. At this time, it can be clearly seen that the difference between the two armies is obvious, although the 100,000 Japanese army has formed several huge phalanxes, it looks a little messy, while the military formations listed by the Yanyun army are very neat, interlocking, and the layout is strictly organized, it is really like a mountain peak.
The unique drum sound of the Japanese people sounded loudly, and the soldiers of the Yanyun army saw a general galloping out of the Japanese army formation on the opposite side, wearing heavy armor, and his physique was very majestic, not like a Japanese people, with his eyebrows upside down, his expression was fierce, and he was holding a long-handled weapon like a gun and an ax in his hand. I saw that the man rode his horse to the middle of the two military formations, reined in his horse, carried his blade, and raised his voice arrogantly at the Yanyun army: "I am the first fierce general of Yamato, Honda is loyal to victory, what kind of Yan King of your Han people, don't be a turtle with a shrunken head, come out and die!" He spoke Chinese, and the soldiers of Yanyun understood it, and they all showed anger, and Yang Zaixing and the others couldn't help but want to fight.
Yang Peng smiled: "He challenged me, so naturally I should fight!" Then he turned his head to Ya Yu Guanyin next to him and said, "Guanyin, you sit for me!" Ya Kannon nodded.
Yang Peng rode his horse out of the military formation, and the Japanese soldiers all stared at Yang Peng with wide eyes, all wanting to see what kind of character the legendary Yan King was, only to see that the person who came was tall and heroic, dressed in the face armor of the iron chain beast, wearing a dark cloak, and straddled a majestic horse with a black body, holding a cold and shining iron horse lance in his hand, which was really the god of war. All the Japanese soldiers couldn't help but praise in their hearts, but then they thought: 'Although this Yan King is like a character, he must not be the opponent of Honda-sama, and Honda-sama will definitely be able to behead him in one fell swoop, showing the majesty of our Yamato samurai!' At this thought, everyone's eyes showed excitement.
Yang Peng rode his horse to Honda Zhongsheng and stood more than ten steps in front of him, glanced at Honda Zhongsheng, and said with a smile: "I am Yang Peng, the king of Yan." If you want to take my head, it's up to you to see if you have the ability! ”
Honda Tadakatsu stared at Yang Peng, his eyes showed excitement, and he suddenly shouted, urging the horse to rush towards Yang Peng. Yang Peng stood in place, and did not ride his horse to meet him, and some Japanese soldiers laughed and said: "That Yan Wang is stupid!" ”
In the blink of an eye, Honda Tadashi rushed in front of Yang Peng, the blade like an axe and a spear in his hand was raised high, and it fell towards Yang Peng's head with a roar, like a mountain, it was really extraordinary! At the last moment, I saw Yang Peng raise the iron horse lance, and the axe-like blade slashed heavily on the crossbar of the horse lance, and in the sonorous sound, sparks splashed everywhere. Yang Peng didn't move, and Honda Zhongsheng was shocked. In the blink of an eye, Honda Tada's war horse took Honda Tadashi and Yang Peng to stagger.
Running out of more than a dozen steps, Honda Tadashi turned his horse's head violently, his eyes stared at Yang Peng, his expression revealed a very surprised taste, he originally thought that no one would be able to block his thunderous blow, but he didn't expect that this Yan King not only blocked, but also didn't seem to have any effort, this is really incredible. On second thought: he must be pretending to be calm, how can anyone in the world be so calm after receiving such a blow from me! Hmph, see how long you can fit!
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately shouted, and once again urged the war horse to rush towards Yang Peng, raising his strange-shaped weapon with both hands, and his momentum was even stronger than just now, like a wild beast that had gone berserk. Seeing this scene, the Japanese soldiers couldn't help but be extremely excited, and they shouted one after another, and the huge sound was like the tide of the sea.
Honda Tadakatsu rushed in front of Yang Peng, and the blade slashed straight down at Yang Peng's head. However, after only cutting one foot, he suddenly turned around, changed to a sweep, and swept towards Yang Peng's neck from left to right! Yang Peng erected the horse lance, and Honda's loyal blade slammed into the horse lance's crossbar with a thud! Honda Tadashi saw that the other party took over his trick again, and his demeanor was very relaxed and relaxed, without a little reluctance, he only felt extremely surprised, if the first move was just a fluke to block it, then what about this second move, is it also a fluke?
Yang Peng smiled: "You attacked two moves, I want to return you now, be careful!" Honda Tadakatsu couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
