Chapter 99: The Battle of Pyongyang (4)

The cavalry queue composed of more than 3,000 monks in the Qi refining period, as long as their strength is not exhausted, is almost invincible on the battlefield of Pyongyang. Pei Xuanqin knew that his so-called elite cavalry could no longer have half a chance under the iron hooves of the Tang cavalry led by Chu Zheng, and he could only pin his hopes on other Goguryeo cavalry.

"I have 100,000 elite cavalry, even if the headquarters is damaged, other soldiers can also cross the battlefield, as long as they fight hard, before the Tang cavalry in front of them kills the Tang army, we will still win this battle!"

Pei Xuanqing knew that he had fallen into a desperate situation, and in order to prevent himself from killing himself on the spot, he had to tell himself that he had not lost this battle against Goguryeo.

He only saw what happened to his own team at the moment, so he didn't believe it when he was killed, and the other Tang army cavalry was as strong as Chu Zheng's department, and they were all composed of Qi cultivators. In this way, he could still hold on to his Dao heart and not collapse for the time being.

In comparison, Shen Chongqian, who was sitting at the head of the city, was not so lucky, his vision was broader, and there was no Tang Army in front of him to deal with, so he had enough energy to watch the entire battlefield.

Shen Chongqian, who was sitting on the front steps of the city tower, did not have half a blood on his face, and trembled as if he was swinging. If he had a choice, he would rather not see anything himself, so that he would not be so frightened and desperate.

In his field of vision, the Goguryeo cavalry, who rushed out of the city, was intercepted head-on by the Tang army.

In terms of the strength of the two sides, the Goguryeo cavalry was more than three times that of the Tang army, but when the two formations intersected, the Goguryeo cavalry unilaterally turned on their backs, as if they had touched the tide of the sea cliff being knocked back, rolling up a large area of aura waves mixed with blood mist.

The Tang cavalry battle array was surging forward, and they didn't see how they fought hard, and the Goguryeo cavalry in front of them was like a weed that was scattered and crushed, and was swallowed up and disappeared!

Outside the three city walls and six city gates, twelve Goguryeo elite cavalry, without even seeing the shadow of the Tang army's infantry array, were all hit by the Tang army's iron cavalry, and all of them fell to the ground.

When the Tang army galloped over, there was blood on the ground, and countless severed limbs and wreckage were laid out on the ground, which was shocking. Hearing the wails and screams of the soldiers in the sea of corpses and blood, Shen Chongqian felt as if he had fallen into the eighteenth layer of hell, and his five organs seemed to explode in pain and horror.

100,000 Goguryeo cavalry, just a face-to-face with the Tang Army's iron cavalry, just one wrong pass, eight or nine out of ten losses in battle.

The remaining Goguryeo cavalry, most of whom were good qi cultivators, also abandoned their horses at the moment of life and death, and the frightened birds scattered and fled, so that they could save their lives.

It's just that although they are alive, their horses are gone, and they are no longer cavalrymen.

And these people are all frightened too seriously, in the face of the Tang Army Iron Cavalry like the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, the three souls and seven spirits seem to be incomplete, Mo said that there is no fighting spirit to fight with the Tang Army Iron Cavalry again, and even the courage to stay on the battlefield is gone, in the absence of military orders, they rushed back to the city wall, jumped on the city, and never dared to show their faces again.

Shen Chongqian looked at these monks who were panicking like lost dogs, constantly jumping into the city from his side, and could no longer bear the despair in his heart, and two lines of tears burst out of his eyes.

These monks are the absolute elite of Goguryeo, the pillars of the country, and in the past ten years of conquest, they are also the real warriors who have gone through blood, fire, and frost, and killed from the pile of the dead!

How many Silla armies have been defeated by them, how many Silla elites have been killed by them, and how many Silla fortresses have been breached by them......

But now, with several times the enemy's strength, they took the initiative to fight against the cavalry of the Tang Army, not to mention that they did not gain the slightest result, and they were defeated when they met, and there was no longer any appearance of a soldier!

Even if a mouse meets a cat, it's the worst situation, right?

Shen Chongqian stood up tremblingly, pulled out his long sword, and wanted to stand at the head of the city, take on the role of a law enforcement team, and kill everyone who dared

Those who escaped. However, the sword had just been raised, but it was unable to hang down.

The rout of the Goguryeo army was not that the soldiers did not fight bravely, but that they did not have to fight at all, even Shen Chongqian himself, when he saw those Tang army iron cavalry who were all monks above the Qi refining period, he was terrified, and his twin strands trembled!

"It's over...... It's over, Pyongyang City is over......" Shen Chongqian lost his long sword and sat down helplessly on the ground, only to feel that he no longer had the strength to stand up.

"Your Majesty, the Goryeo army that went out of the city has been defeated by the new cavalry of the Wolf Tooth Army, and the last general asked Ling Jingcai to take advantage of the victory to pursue, directly attack the city, and completely occupy Pyongyang City!" Zhao Poyu turned around and clenched his fists, and asked Li Ye for orders.

Although this battle was carried out briefly, it made people feel hearty and happy, and at this moment Zhao Poyu was unwilling to delay any longer, and was thinking about directly capturing Pyongyang City.

Before the magic trebuchet and magic weapon crossbow alternately bombarded the head of the city, it had already caused heavy casualties to the Goguryeo army, which greatly weakened the morale of the other party, and now the Goguryeo cavalry out of the city was almost completely wiped out, and the defenders of Pyongyang City were bound to collapse, and this was the best time to seize the city.

Li Ye agreed with Zhao Poyu's judgment.

There is really no reason to disagree, and the situation is no more obvious.

Li Ye waved his hand and wrote lightly: "The left and right flanks intercept the enemy army on the acropolis, and the main cavalry force directly attacks the city, and the infantry army follows!"

"The last general commands!" Zhao Poyu turned around and drew his sword, held it high above the top, and then led to Pyongyang City, giving the order for the whole army to attack.

Before Pei Xuanqing led 100,000 cavalry out of the city, he once issued a military order, and the defenders' foot soldiers had to fight with them.

The new cavalry of the wolf's tooth army defeated the Goguryeo cavalry out of the city, the speed was really too fast, and the follow-up foot soldiers had not had time to finish the formation behind the city gate.

Just like a flood that broke a dike, the Wolf Tooth Army was invincible and unstoppable into the city of Pyongyang!

The Goguryeo infantry cavalry that rushed out of the left and right acropolises had just arrived at the battlefield and was preparing to show their skills, cooperating with Pei Xuanqing to surround them on several sides and defeat the Tang army in one fell swoop.

The leaders of the two armies were so shocked that their jaws were about to fall to the ground, and they were hesitating whether to attack or retreat, when they saw the Tang Army's iron cavalry rushing over with thunder.

The two generals had no choice but to order their troops to meet the enemy. As a result, there was no surprise, their offensive formation had not yet completely turned into a defensive formation, and the new cavalry of the Wolf Tooth Army rushed into the formation, killing them crying for their father and mother, and the formation was in chaos.

The two Wolf Tooth armies that intercepted the Acropolis of Pyongyang, each with 5,000 horsemen, killed seven in and seven out in a very short period of time in the Goguryeo army of 40,000 or 50,000 people.

When they killed the crowd of Goguryeo soldiers for the last time, they were left with a mess behind them, and most of the Goryeo soldiers in the acropolis lost their lives before they could even escape back to the city.

As the Tang army outside Pyongyang invaded the city in a big way, the defenders in the city retreated like a tide, and the war situation was no longer in suspense. At the same time, the great monks in the Tang army also almost poured out, besieging the city on all sides, sniping the Goguryeo monks in the city, especially the great monks.

When Li Ye saw this, he felt excited. He glanced up at the sky, and it had only been an hour since the trebuchets began to bombard the city, and the battle had advanced very quickly.

Zhao Poyu was very excited, turned around and clenched his fists and said to Li Ye: "Your Majesty, this battle shows that my Datang only needs 100,000 heroes, which is enough to conquer all the surrounding states that are not subordinate! This is the embodiment of the achievements of the Tang Dynasty, and it is the best proof of Your Majesty's eloquence, and the minister congratulates Your Majesty!"

When he said this, his eyes were blazing and fanatical, and he couldn't help but bow down on one knee after he finished speaking. It seems that if it weren't for the armor, he would definitely bow to Li Ye with five bodies on the ground, as a result

Express your supreme respect for His Majesty the Emperor.

Li Ye smiled and motioned for Zhao Poyu to get up, there was no need to be so gaffe.

In this campaign to conquer the peninsula, although there were only 100,000 troops, the armament was extremely good, and there were 30,000 new horsemen of the Wolf Tooth Army.

This is the real combat power of the current Tang civilization and the power of the Tang Dynasty, and the small country of Goguryeo is just the light of fire, how can it compete with the sun and the moon?

Li Ye's eyes fell on the corner of the battlefield and saw Pei Xuanqing.

Pei Xuanqing did not retreat to the city.

Compared with other cavalry teams out of the city, the situation of his team is actually the best, after all, Pei Xuanqing's cultivation is high, although he has lost his war horse, he has been insisting on fighting, and his descendants are still stronger.

At this time of the battle, there were still more than 100 people around him, but there were no war horses, and he was besieged by hundreds of Tang army foot soldiers. Even so, Pei Xuanqing still wielded his knife endlessly, fighting endlessly, shouting and shouting again and again, and never stopped for a moment.

As a great cultivator of the Yang God True Realm, knowing that the war was unfavorable, defeat was inevitable, and it was very easy to escape, after all, Shen Chongqian ran away. But Pei Xuanqing didn't say that he didn't leave, he still fought with a knife on the ground, completely treating himself as an ordinary soldier.

Of course, he was also a great monk in the Tang Army.

The Tang army did not know that the enemy general was strong, and still used ordinary soldiers to send them to death.

The general trend has gone, although Pei Xuanqing fought fearlessly, he was quickly injured by several Tang Dynasty monks, his battle armor was messy, his hair was scattered, and he even vomited blood, and he was barely able to stand firm. And the Goguryeo warriors behind him quickly fell to the ground, and there were less than ten people left.

Li Ye came to the front of the formation, signaled everyone to suspend their moves, glanced at Pei Xuanqing, who was covered in blood and panting like a cow, and still held the broken blade battle knife, and nodded quite approvingly.

He said: "I don't have a good impression of Goryeo, but I have to say that you are also a man. At this time, the city of Pyongyang is about to change hands, your defeat is irreparable, and there is no point in General Pei fighting again, if you are willing to surrender, I can consider giving you a way to live. ”

Pei Xuanqing saw Li Ye calling himself me, so he knew his identity, and his eyes were full of surprise when he looked at him, and there was no lack of admiration, and there was even a trace of fear that could not be concealed.

However, after listening to Li Ye's words, Pei Xuanqing straightened his waist, pointed at Li Ye with a long knife, gritted his teeth, and said: "As the chief general of Pyongyang, I am ineffective in battle, and I have lost my army and humiliated the country.

"The power of the Tang Dynasty is indeed as bright as the sun, and it is difficult for Goguryeo to resist after me. But if Your Majesty wants to persuade me to surrender and humiliate me, he is underestimating me Pei Xuanqing!"

As soon as the words fell, Pei Xuanqing let out a beast-like roar, and actually took two steps forward and raised his knife to slash at Li Ye.

Li Ye shook his head and sighed: "General Pei is really good. It's just that his hero, my enemy, since you are bent on death, I will fulfill you. ”

Li Ye didn't do it himself, and he didn't need to do it himself, the big monks on the left and right rushed up and blasted Pei Xuanqing into a cloud of blood mist before stopping.

As for the remaining Goguryeo soldiers, they were naturally hacked to death by the Tang army.

Soon, Zhao Poyu came to reply with an excited expression: "Your Majesty, the city of Pyongyang has been completely taken by us, and the defenders in the city have either been killed or captured, and less than one percent of them have escaped!"

When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they were all overjoyed, and they saluted Li Ye together, "Congratulations to Your Majesty on winning Pyongyang City!"

Compared with the excitement of everyone, Li Ye looked indifferent, he raised his head with his hands, looked at the Pyongyang City Tower, and said in a bleak manner: "Pyongyang City? Rather, the whole peninsula!"
