Chapter 64

Blood on the top of the city

At the head of Liaodong, the two armies were hard to part with each other. Although the Sui army suffered heavy casualties, there were still neat platoons behind them, all of which were infantry that were raising their strength.

The siege infantry under the city rushed forward in groups. When the casualties were too great, they retreated and replaced with a brand new platoon. The withdrawn remnants had just been re-divided according to their physical condition. The seriously injured entered the injured camp, and the light camp sent them to bandage them, and reorganized into a team to be responsible for external guards and patrols.

The uninjured soldiers will be reorganized and formed a brand new square array. After a short rest, they will be reorganized into a square array under the city to prepare for siege. For the Sui army, with the current scale of the siege, they can continue to attack continuously.

Chen Kefu's Pojun Camp was still lined up in the west at this time, but everyone had already rested for an hour, and they were all fully armed and watched the battle. Although the two sides fought to the death and their blood was boiling, the 10,000 cavalrymen in Pojun Camp had been here for almost a day.

In the past, when Chen Kefu fought, he was always in it. He was fighting hard, but he was still fighting hard. It can be said that he was in a state of concentration. However, this was the first time he participated in a battle like today. He rode a horse and watched the two sides fight leisurely.

Without that tension and that kind of oppression, after a period of initial adaptation, Chen Kefu now completely regarded the war in front of him as a three-dimensional epic war blockbuster, which was even more exciting than watching Hollywood blockbusters before traveling through time. While watching, he could also discuss the tactical characteristics and gains and losses of both the siege battle and the offensive and defensive sides with Mr. Li Benlei next to him.

For the soldiers of this era, they did not have military academy or teachers to teach. The battlefield was the best military academy and the enemy was the best teacher. Under Chen Kefu's deliberate guidance, this war became a case analysis lesson for the officers of the Poujun Camp.

Each general expressed his opinions and summarized his strengths and weaknesses. Looking at the officers who were arguing with enthusiasm, Chen Kefu couldn't help but smiled in his heart. He had always planned to open an officer training class, but the specific methods and models had not been decided yet. In this era, generals who could not recognize a few hyphens would come to talk about military theory, and it would probably not have any effect at all. But today's situation strengthened his thoughts, saying that they could not understand the theory, but if some classic battle examples were taken out and analyzed and discussed like today, it would undoubtedly be very useful.

For a different opinion, these officers were blushing and red in their faces. In order to prove their views, they even used their brains and found various reasons. For Chen Kefu, as long as they were willing to use their brains, they were good students. As long as they guided their behavior and made it a habit for them, these people would take a big step towards a qualified general in the future.

When Qin Qiong and others jumped onto the city wall and when he finally cut off the man's head and roared, the officers in the military camp all stopped discussing and focused on the warrior who could not see clearly.

Lu Shishen was at a disadvantage in the discussion of the battle examples and suffered a great loss. At this time, he said loudly, "Wow, who is this man? I really have a kind of person. We just like this. Just talking is useless, you still have to do it well." After that, he glared at Chen Guang. Although the two of them are still good now, they still use words to each other to squeeze each other out of time. When Chen Guang and Lu Shishen were discussing, they were completely opponents. If you say this is good, I will find a reason to say that it is better. However, although Lu Shishen is very good at drinking, he is far worse than Chen Guang, who has been in Chang'an City for many years. After a long time of fighting, he has never won.

Mr. Li Benlei and others also hurriedly said, "This man is indeed brave. He takes the enemy's head from a million troops, which really boosts our morale. It's just that it's too far away and I can't see who it is."

Chen Guang looked at the city wall with a smile and said, "I see those people are from the group who rushed up the car. This time, the one who is responsible for the car crash and the eight-wheel flying building is our Zuo Bei Mansion. These are all Xiaoguo. Last time, I, Old Shen, also followed the car crash to attack the city, and finally used this trick. These people were obviously learning from me. But they are indeed heroes. The ten thousand Xiaoguos around His Majesty are the most brave heroes selected from the various armies. It is nothing to be able to perform like this." After that, he also looked back at Lu Shishen.

Chen Kefu sat on the horse and watched for a long time, but he couldn't see the other person clearly. At this time, he heard that it was Xiaoguo's person, so he hurriedly said to Chen Guang, "This Xiaoguo is also from our Zuobei Mansion. Why don't you find this warrior tomorrow to see if you can transfer him to our Pojun camp? If he is willing to come, I will ask Your Majesty to give him a sixth-grade position. Seeing that he is so brave, he must be very good at grooming skills."

For Chen Kefu, he has now begun to prepare for the future. Whether this man is good at both horse and stance or just working hard, he wants to dig him over. Even if he only works hard, it is very appropriate to stay in the Pojun Camp first and help him lead infantry when he has the opportunity. Now the generals of the Pojun Camp are all the generals at the moment, and he also hopes to win more talents. Although the Sui Dynasty has begun to be in chaos, when it comes to the strongest generals of the Great Sui Dynasty, it is still necessary to talk about the Sui army. These are all from regular troops, no better than those rebels who became monks halfway.

Chen Guang nodded, "I'll try it tomorrow, but he has performed like this today, I'm afraid that your Majesty will see it too. If your Majesty likes him, then we dare not compete with Your Majesty for someone."

Chen Kefu shook his head and said, "Why can't you turn your mind? What does your Majesty have to do with his eyes on him? What are we? We are your Majesty's personal guards. If you transfer him to our Pojun Camp, you will still protect His Majesty the same. Of course, unless Your Majesty really likes him very much and rewards him with a second or third rank high-ranking official, then this small temple in our Pojun Camp will not accommodate him."

Everyone laughed. Although the man on the city was brave, His Majesty the Emperor had no chance to reward him as a second- and third-rank high-rank official. It was really possible to reward him as a sixth-rank fifth-rank. After all, His Majesty’s personal reward cannot be judged according to common sense.

"Okay, I'll try it tomorrow. I'm still familiar with Xiaoguo." Chen Guang said.

Qin Qiong on the top of the city did not know that the actions he had just taken notice by everyone. Although he killed a Liao general, his morale increased. But what came with him was the Goguryeo people. Gao Jianwu also saw the situation here. Seeing that his brave Ke Shaogu was beheaded, he immediately saw the bravery of the Sui people.

At the command of Gao Jianwu, he urgently dispatched a team of 200 elite soldiers who were resting below. Two hundred people were not too many, but Gao Jianwu could not bring too many people. The Sui army's offensive was too fierce and they could barely support them everywhere. Although he still had three thousand reserve teams in his hand, this was his last force, and in addition, it was transferred to Gao Ming's three thousand elite soldiers. But those were the new forces he left the city tonight. Without an elite cavalry, they could not escape the siege of the Sui army.

There is still several time left before the negotiated breakthrough time, and the reserve team of these 3,000 people is the final guarantee for him to hold on to these few hours. He will not be able to send it in unless it is absolutely necessary.

The city was attacked for a long time in the morning, and since the city was on the afternoon, Qin Qiong and others had no rest. The continuous high-intensity short-term battles were quickly consuming their physical strength. Fortunately, they defended the city's position, and many soldiers had already passed the ladder and climbed the city's tower. As long as they held for a while, there would be more and more Sui troops on the city's front, and the Goguryeo people could not stop it.

When he thought that he might become the first group of soldiers to attack Liaodong City, he was very excited. The first group of soldiers to attack the city had always been able to receive great achievements and rewards. Especially during such a battle, and His Majesty the Emperor personally watched the battle. He could be promoted to the next level when making military achievements. Now the emperor is here, it is possible that he will double. He has never seen Chen Kefu and Shen Guang's example.

"Liaogou's archer, raise your shield!"

While imagining how many rewards he had won for the battle function he had set this time, Qin Qiong rushed over with a spear. Wang Daniu, the team behind, heard the loud voice of Wang Daniu. Qin Qiong rolled everywhere like a reflex, picked up a corpse and folded it in front of him. Although he did not see the Liao people's archers, he had been in the army for two years. Qin Qiong knew that sometimes if he reacted a little slower, his life would be his life.

Qin Qiong's reaction saved his life. Each of the two hundred Liao people rushing up held a bow and was holding a rain of arrows at the Sui army guarding that section of the city. At this time, there were still many Liao people fighting with the Sui soldiers. However, the newly-up Liao people did not hesitate at all. They came up and took the bow and drew arrows. Not only did the Liao people themselves not expect it, but even many Sui troops did not expect that the Liao people would shoot arrows. Although they saw them, they thought that the Liao people in the melee would not fire such a volley.

Suddenly, more than a dozen brave soldiers of the Sui army were covered with feather arrows and fell down unwillingly. The body of the Liao people that Qin Qiong used to block was also covered with feather arrows. After the rain of arrows of the Liao people passed, Qin Qiong picked up a spear from the ground and flew over the group of Liao people. Carrying Qin Qiong's anger, the spear penetrated two Goguryeo soldiers with a glimpse.

Qin Qiong threw out the first spear, and the Sui soldiers who escaped under the feather arrows also began to pick up the weapons beside them and threw them over. The spears, spears, even horizontal swords, scimitars, and axes all became long-range weapons of the Sui army, especially the axes, which were even more powerful. The Sui army's counterattack was immediately greater than the casualties caused by the rain of arrows by the Liao people.
