Chapter 1333: Chestnut in the Fire
"And what if Hudar doesn't let the cavalry out? Or what if he is still moving forward like yesterday? Obsessively thought about it and asked.
"If they're still moving forward like they did yesterday, we're still the same as we were yesterday. Anyway, we're not afraid to go slowly, and it's not us who are in a hurry now. Qi Qi He Li shook his head, "This combat mission is to be flexible and adaptable, and the task of our cavalry is to interfere anyway, whether it is combat or interference, we have to depend on the fighters." ”
"If tomorrow starts smoothly according to my battle plan, then we will storm this place, if tomorrow the enemy's cavalry troops come here, but the cavalry attacking the baggage behind has not yet attacked, we will not wait, we will kill a wave directly."
"Yes!"
……
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, just like what Qibi He Li said, Hudar made the same judgment as Qi Qi He Li.
In order to speed up the march, he ordered the 30,000 cavalry to go forward fifteen miles, keeping a distance of about fifteen miles from the infantry behind, so that the infantry could always maintain the maximum marching speed. And if there is an obstacle ahead, 30,000 cavalry is enough to clear it.
You can't blame Khudar for being careless, and you can't blame Khudar for not having a brain, he is too anxious.
In other words, the military situation made him have to be anxious, and the importance of Liaodong City made it impossible for them to lose Liaodong City.
In a hurry, Khudar did ignore his rear.
He didn't know that behind him, 10,000 cavalrymen were leading their horses on foot at night, and they had already touched a place more than a thousand meters away from them.
The rear of Hudar's army was indeed a baggage force, fortunately, he did not have any defense, and there was an infantry of 3,000 men in the rear of the baggage army.
In the early morning, when Khudar's army began to move, the first to move were 30,000 cavalry.
And in the mountains and forests on their side, several Datang soldiers stared here for a night, confirming through binoculars that the cavalry troops in front had left a distance of at least ten or twenty miles, and then these Datang soldiers decisively took out a steel cannon barrel from their arms.
An optimized salute shell was then slipped into the barrel.
With a dull sound, a firework with a sharp whistling sound instantly rose to a height of more than 100 meters on the top of the mountain, and then exploded with a "boom", making a loud noise.
The huge sound echoed throughout the valley, and everyone in Hudar's army could be said to be startled, and before they could recover from their confusion, four thousand cavalry out of the 10,000 heavy cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, who had already prepared behind their buttocks, rushed directly towards the troops behind the palace of Goguryeo!
The person in charge of commanding this 10,000 heavy cavalry was Ashinadur, and the reason why he only sent 4,000 was decided by Ashinadur temporarily, because of this terrain, 10,000 cavalry were not allowed to charge collectively, so he left 6,000 as a response!
The sudden shouting of killing and the passionate charging horn made the entire Goguryeo baggage and the troops behind the palace stupid, they never thought that there would be a heavy cavalry unit rushing in behind their buttocks!
Although there were 3,000 infantry behind the palace, the distance of more than 1,000 meters was too close for cavalry, even the heavy cavalry who were not very good at charging were so!
Today, the 4,000 heavy cavalry in charge of the charge were already armoured, and when they rushed into the Goryeo infantry, which was caught off guard and even frightened by the cavalry charge, there was only one end.
Slaughter!
The cavalry that cut in at high speed adopted the knife-dragging tactics invented by His Highness, and their purpose was not to kill the enemy at all, but only to create chaos.
The 4,000 heavy cavalry directly crossed the 3,000 rear infantry and directly smashed into the baggage troops, and the chaotic Goguryeo army was stunned by the sudden attack and did not organize an effective attack at all.
The cavalry general who was responsible for leading the attack was about a kilometer or so away from the enemy's camp, and saw that the enemy infantry in front had organized an effective formation and decisively led the army to turn around.
In the same way, the six thousand cavalry behind the palace also rode up and killed, but did not charge, because these enemies had already been routed and fled, and there was no need to charge, they were just to respond.
When the cavalry that responded to the turnaround was received, Ashinadur did not hesitate at all, and directly led the cavalry to turn around and leave.
Anyway, the enemy's cavalry is in front, and no one can stop them from leaving!
……
Also when Ashinadur launched a charge, the second fireflower bomb on the mountain peak close to Qibi He Li also exploded directly in the air.
Seeing this fireworks, Qi Qi He Li directly ordered his soldiers to blow the charge without hesitation, and at the foot of the mountain more than 800 meters in front of them, the enemy's cavalry troops were in confusion and panic because of the explosion of these fireworks.
When 10,000 heavy armored cavalry rushed down the hillside with a rolling torrent, the heavy cavalry of Goguryeo below was in disarray.
Because their formation was already in disarray, not to mention that the enemy had already begun to charge, and they simply had no room to increase their horse speed.
Some of the heavy cavalry on the edge plucked up their courage and also rushed directly towards the Tang cavalry, while more people were frozen in place, not knowing whether to retreat and give way to the enemy's charging route, or whether to turn around and attack, because they had not yet received orders from their generals.
The 10,000 cavalry led by Qi Bi He Li did not hesitate at all, although the other party was also a cavalry, they still did not hesitate to cut directly into it.
Before rushing into the enemy camp, Qi Qi He Li directly let go of the bowstring in his hand.
Countless dense arrows slammed into the enemy's camp. After shooting an arrow, Qi Qi He Li hung the bow and arrow directly on his body and drew the scimitar at his waist.
There's no room left for them to shoot a second arrow, but that's enough.
10,000 heavy cavalry rushed into the enemy's camp, and in an instant, people turned on their backs!
But their team still rushed through the enemy's camp, and he didn't know how many people he had chopped, and he didn't see how many of them were, and he didn't know how many brothers would stay here, but it didn't matter, the enemy's losses were definitely greater than theirs!
After rushing out of the enemy's formation, Qi Bi He Li looked back for the first time.
There was still chaos behind, and the enemy's pursuit had not yet arrived, as he had expected. Because this part of their attack was the vanguard of the enemy's cavalry troops, a large number of enemy cavalry pulled a long formation and was still in the valley behind, they were disrupted by their own people, and for a time they could not rush at all.
Seeing this scene, Qi Qi He Li resolutely yelled: "Turn around!" Kill back! Snatch out our wounded brother and take as much as he can! ”
"Woo" followed closely by a cavalryman beside Qibi He Li, decisively picked up a trumpet from his waist and blew the trumpet.
On the other side, the two cavalrymen carrying the red Datang flag decisively followed Qi Bi He Li and directly turned their heads and rushed back.
