Chapter 240 Capture the Thieves and the King
In the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of people, Chen Kefu could not see the situation on the entire battlefield clearly.
He needs a pair of eyes to command him!
Li Benlei and several other generals on the top of the city personally observed the enemy for Chen Kefu, and guided them with flag words through the messengers on the Diaotai.
After receiving guidance from Xiangdong, Chen Kefu yelled, "Look east! Go east!"
One roar after another passed backwards, and the heavy cavalry began to gradually go east.
The heavy cavalry who were guided by the city on the way basically advanced in the gap between the enemy along the way. Although there were still many soldiers along the way, it was not enough to block the attack of the heavy cavalry.
The rumbling sound of horse hooves kept ringing, four hooves flew, and the soil was flying. Under the guidance of the Pojun banner, the army headed eastward and blocked it invincible!
"Master General, the armored cavalry of the Sui army appeared!" Gao Jianwu looked at Yizhi Wendedao with a worried face.
The iron-armored cavalry is too powerful and it is simply unstoppable. If this continues, the first thing the two sides who have fought fiercely for a day is probably the coalition forces. Gao Jianwu did not fight with the iron-armored cavalry, but he also knows that Chen Pojun, the commander of the Sui army, dared to attack the 80,000 people of Yizhi Wende with one thousand iron-armored cavalry. Then the combat effectiveness of this cavalry can be imagined.
Yizhi Wende frowned, his eyes full of anger. Enemies are narrow and meet on narrow roads!
Yizhi Wende was originally a general in the Goguryeo Army and has always been called a master of military tactics. Especially since Sashui annihilated 300,000 Sui troops, his personal honor reached the top level and became the military god of the Goguryeo people. But when he was a dignified military god, leading 80,000 light cavalry to the north and preparing to build another Sashui achievements. This damn Chen Pojun appeared, and a thousand cavalry broke through his 80,000 cavalry, causing him to be attacked by the 200,000 Sui army and wiped out all the troops. Moreover, this person had just killed his brother Yizhi Wude a few days ago. The hatred and family hatred instantly surged into his heart.
"But he really thinks he is invincible in the world with just a few thousand iron armored cavalry? Did he think his cavalry can be invincible with iron armor? If he doesn't come out, he can live for a while. Since he can't wait and drive out to die, then I will fulfill his wish. He passed this command and transferred General Gao Dalin's 10,000 light cavalry to the battlefield, so don't entangle them. The four generals of Jin, Yuanhu, Gao Rong, and Yizhizheng each unified 10,000 infantry and 20,000 slaves, and gave me a large shield and a long spear formation to surround me. The general has seen Chen Kefu's son's flag beside the cavalry, and I want to capture him alive!"
Gao Jianwu's eyes lit up and he smiled, "The Great Commander is indeed easy to arrange. As long as he surrounds all sides, no matter how strong he is, Chen Kefu will be captured alive. Even if he can't conquer Liaodong City today, as long as Chen Kefu is captured, then Liaodong City will definitely be captured."
The last reserve troops of the Goguryeo coalition were dispatched. At this time, in addition to the B-zhi army and other troops, there were still thousands of troops. The entire 200,000 coalition forces and more than 300,000 slaves were all spread like ants on the battlefield in Liaodong City.
The light cavalry of the domestic city, led by the Liao general Gao Dalin, ran towards the heavy cavalry. Behind them were there five thousand Shiwei cavalry of Commander Tiedan. Although the 15,000 light cavalry could not compete with the heavy cavalry head-on, they could control and entangle them and gain critical time for the infantry to surround them.
There was still a stalemate on the top of the city on all sides, and it was too late.
The wind is howling, the horse is neighing, and countless flags are flying!
"Master, turn to the south!" The messenger yelled in unison!
Without hesitation, Chen Kefu immediately ordered to turn south. At this time, the entire heavy cavalry had already entered the vast crowd of enemy troops. He could not see clearly where was the road to life or the dead. At this time, he unconditionally believed in General Li Benlei who was guiding the city.
Five thousand coalition cavalry arrived, but only saw the smoke and dust from afar. The Sui army's heavy cavalry turned, and they didn't even see a shadow, let alone entanglement.
"Continue chasing!"
The heavy cavalry advanced all the way, and all the coalition soldiers standing in front were vulnerable. One soldier after another fell on the iron hoof. Along the way, with Li Benlei's guidance, the entire heavy cavalry specially found the small gathering of troops and fought with the majority of slave groups.
After repeated attacks, all the soldiers and horses were defeated and dispersed. Most of the slaves were only held by a small part of Goguryeo. After being attacked by the Sui army, all the slaves ran around.
With Li Benlei's guidance, the tens of thousands of coalition troops could not surround the heavy cavalry at all. Every time they opened a large net to surround them. But in the end, the heavy cavalry could always rush over in those gaps calmly.
Nearly half an hour later, the entire coalition army's tens of thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of slaves were running, jumping up and down, and they were tired of losing their strength. Gao Jianwu and Yizhi Wende's faces became worse and worse. They finally realized that although this heavy cavalry seemed to be constantly rushing left and right, without a single nod. However, until now, they could always escape before their troops surrounded.
The heavy cavalry is east and west, and the next is north again. However, the Sui army has brought their side closer and closer. Seeing that there are more than a thousand steps to rush to this side, Gao Jianwu shouted, "No, Grandmaster, the purpose of this Sui army's heavy cavalry is not to attack the troops under the city. Their target is us, and they must be someone who is watching the formation for them, otherwise they will not be able to escape our encirclement again and again!"
The two looked at each other and suddenly realized that from when, the Sui army defended the ground at various cities in Liaodong had broken up one tilt after another. Even from more than ten miles away from Liaodong City, they could clearly see soldiers waving flags on it.
His face changed, and he sighed in his heart, and he became careless.
"That's right, it seems that the flag bearer on the scattered platform on the front of the city is a messenger. Someone at the head of the Liaodong city is guiding them to watch the formation. Their target must be the coach's flag." Yizhi Wende said with a gloomy face.
Among the three armies, the general flag is crucial. Once the general flag falls, morale will inevitably be greatly lost. Especially now, the battlefield has been fought for a whole day. If the general flag of the coalition suddenly falls, the exhausted coalition soldiers may even collapse.
Huang Ge, the young leader of the Hei Shui Mohe tribe, heard that the heavy cavalry was coming for them, and his face couldn't help but look ugly. Now, under the commander's flag, there were only three thousand cavalry of the Hei Shui Mohe and five thousand Goguryeo infantry. He could not believe that he could stop the fierce iron armored cavalry.
"Master, why don't we avoid the edge for the time being and move the handsome flag backward!"
Gao Jianwu glanced at Huang Ge disdainfully, "Shiqi is the courage of a military army. During a great battle, he can only advance but not retreat! Once the Shiqi retreats, the morale of the army will inevitably be greatly reduced. This is the way to defeat!"
"The commander-in-chief is passed on to me. General Gao Dalin quickly retreats to the commander-in-chief's post. The four generals of Ke Jin, Yuanhu, Gao Rong and Yizhi led their troops to surround the commander-in-chief's banner. In addition, they sent me to shoot the commander-in-chief from the tower on the Sui army's city to cut off the contact between the city and Chen Kefu's children."
At this time, retreating could no longer retreat. Yizhi Wende was also a ruthless man. He simply ordered to use himself as bait to attract Chen Kefu's re-cat, and then use other troops to directly surround the commander's flag. Without the guidance from the city, he would not believe that Chen Kefu could escape his palm this time."
"Master General, we only have eight thousand people, so I'm afraid we can't stop that iron-armored cavalry!" Huang Ge looked unwilling. He was not sure about the eight thousand people resisting this heavy cavalry. What's more important is that among these eight thousand people, there are three thousand of his Marine cavalry. Regardless of success or failure, he will be pushed to the front line.
One by one, the cavalry commanded the cavalry to run quickly on the battlefield, and quickly spread the orders of Yizhi Wende to the ears of all the generals.
With the command of Yizhi Wende, the coalition forces under the city mobilized a large number of archers to attack the commanders on the city. Under the suppression of dense rain of arrows, one of them died, and the Liaodong City and Chen Pojun completely lost contact.
"Deputy Commander, what should I do now?" Li Jie and other generals had already seen that the general flag of Yizhi Wende had become a trap, and countless soldiers were sieging the general flag. If Chen Kefu continued to advance towards the general flag of Yizhi Wende, it would be really going into the trap.
"Deputy Commander, let me take the remaining cavalry out of the city. I'll go and pick up the commander back!" Zhang Jin, Chen Feng, Chen Lin and other generals of the Chen family said anxiously.
The marching Sima Maoxi gritted his teeth and said, "The general must not be mistaken. He dispatched all the cavalry to fight out of the city and brought the general back." This sentence was not as if he was asking for the deputy general Li Benlei.
Before Li Benlei could speak, Chen Feng, Chen Lin, Zhang Jin and other generals had already turned around and rushed to the top of the city wall.
Chen Kefu's heavy cavalry was still charging, and the Liao people's commander flag was not far away. The purpose of heavy cavalry leaving the city is very simple. To capture the thief, first capture the king, just cut down the generals of the coalition forces, and force the Liao people commanding the battle to retreat. Then the entire Liao army siege would inevitably be in chaos.
The general flag fell and lost command. The coalition forces that had fought fiercely for a day would definitely be unable to continue to attack the city.
"Master, the messenger in the city was shot and killed by the Liao people, and he can't contact the deputy commander!"
The golden crow sank westward, and only the last bit of afterglow remained in the sky.
The cold wind blew Chen Kefu's cloak. He raised the corner of his mouth and sneered softly. Did he finally discover the secret of their flag command? He looked up at the Liao general flag, which was less than a thousand steps away, and thousands of coalition forces fighting to form a formation in front of the general flag. He shouted, "The enemy general flag is right in front of him, success or failure is here! Brothers in the Pojun Camp, cut down the banner and kill the Liao general commander! Glory belongs to us, Pojun Camp will win! Kill!"
"kill!"
In the afterglow, the heavy cavalry did not hesitate at all. With the rolling smoke and dust and the rumbling thunder, all the cavalry were lying down and putting their horse lances flat to launch their final charge!
Chapter completed!
