Seven hundred and fortieth chapters the enemy is destroyed
Chapter 746: The Enemies Destroy
Ouyang Li brought a big stone to Wang Ping'an and asked Wang Ping'an to sit on it and watch the Goguryeo army in the distance. The generals also found a place to sit down, resting and watching the fun.
The Qingzhou soldiers below also learned that there was a big battle in Xiaochang'an, but they were blocked by the woods at the foot of the mountain and could not see the scene in the distance, so they had to sit under the tree and breathe. The few who could climb trees climbed onto the trees, watching and explaining, just like a live broadcast, explaining the battle situation to the Qingzhou soldiers below!
Before the ruins of Little Chang'an, the two troops of Goguryeo glared at each other, and both regarded each other as mortal enemies!
Near the ruins were the army of the city lords who came to support. The country had been burned down for ten days. For such a long time, as long as the city lords who could arrive in the capital were basically brought their troops.
When the city lords arrived in front of the ruins of the capital, they saw that everything except the bare walls had been burned. In addition, they first cursed the Tang army for being tyrannical, and then started to quarrel with each other.
At this time, the capital had neither king nor powerful ministers. The people fled, and the city lords' army rushed over again. As a result, the place arrived, but the food and grass were cut off. They wanted to ask the people to raise military rations everywhere. When the army arrived at the capital, they began to go hungry!
Hungry is the business of the soldiers and generals. The city lords cannot be hungry. As long as they don’t whine, they will have the energy to compete for power and profit. The city lords all want to preside over the mission of rescuing the king.
Of course, they didn't really care where the king was. Just like during the Three Kingdoms period of the Central Plains, the princes in the world attacked Dong Zhuo, the Tang army was Dong Zhuo. Now the Tang army has left, but the king has not found it. What should I do?
Whoever can preside over this rescue operation can control the king after finding the king and gain a legitimate position with Yuen Gaisuwen. Even if he can't compete for Yuen Gaisuwen, he can always become the leader of the princes. In the time of chaos, whoever has the reputation of his name will gather more heroes. This is an eternal truth!
The city lords have big and small power, but if they use force, no one can destroy anyone. They do not have overwhelming strength, so everyone can only argue, but they cannot get a result. As for the king... everyone is busy arguing, who has the time to find him!
This morning, the city lords had dinner and were about to continue arguing, but suddenly someone came to report that Yuan Gaisuwen's infantry troops had returned. The city lords were very surprised. Why did Yuan Gaisuwen's army come back so quickly? And the infantry came back first. Why didn't the cavalry come back first?
Confused in his heart, the city lords immediately went out to greet Yuan Gaisuwen. After all, Yuan Gaisuwen is the powerful Mo Lizhi of the government and the people. The city lords are not as strong as him, so they have to pretend to be grandson!
But the city lords had just approached the infantry unit, and a rain of arrows shot up, and they immediately put half of the city lords down, and the remaining half fled back to their camp in a panic!
The infantry general brought the army to the ruins of Xiao Chang'an and set up a square formation. He deliberately did not go to see the city lords, but waited for the city lords to come to see him. Taking advantage of the city lords' unpreparedness, he set up a secret arrow. In just a blink of an eye, he defeated half of his opponents!
Not only can Yuan Gaisuwen not stand it, but the city lords can’t stand it either!
The city lords who were not shot to death fled back to the camp and started to make noises again. They didn't make any noise, but were just to compete for the army of the dead city lords. In the face of the interests of the city lords, they were really unwilling to give in to each other and no one would be polite!
Fortunately, the enemy was facing the enemy, the city lords quickly divided the troops, assembled the troops, formed military formations, and confronted the infantry generals.
Both sides cursed, and the city lords scolded Yuan Gaisuwen for being a human being and wanted to take the opportunity to annex their army, while the infantry troops cursed back, saying that the city lords assassinated Yuan Gaisuwen!
The city lords do not believe in the words of the infantry troops at all. They have already died of a group of city lords and have turned against each other. Even if they are afraid of Yuan Gaisuwen, they can only bear it to the end. They do not believe that Yuan Gaisuwen will die. Good people will not live long and will harm them for a thousand years. Such a great disaster as Yuan Gaisuwen may die so easily!
The battle formation was lined up, and the leaders of the two armies wanted to fight and decide quickly, and even save negotiations. They planned to use force to settle the other side directly! Each of them sent the most fierce generals in their army to fight and scold in front of the formation, insulting the other party's ancestors for the eighteen generations, and chopping and scolding in a mess!
At this time, the infantry generals and the city lord were all red-eyed, and no one noticed that the real enemy had arrived. How could they have thought that the Tang army would be watching the fun in the distance!
The fierce soldiers and generals in front of the formation fought for two quarters of an hour before the victory was decided. The city lords' soldiers were stronger than the infantry troops in terms of personal bravery, and killed all the warriors sent by the infantry generals. The victorious soldiers and generals cut off the enemy's heads, held them in their hands, and had fun in front of the formation, while the city lords' soldiers and generals laughed loudly and their morale was high!
The infantry leader snorted and said to his generals: "I used a delaying strategy to buy time for our children to rest. We rushed back from afar, but they had enough rest. If they didn't let the children rest well, they would suffer some small losses if the war started later!"
The generals agreed and nodded and said, "Let them be proud first, let's give them a good look!"
The city lords saw a small victory in front of the formation, and their soldiers were in high spirits. They thought the time had come, so they ordered the cavalry to attack and defeat the infantry units on the opposite side. Their own infantry raised their spears, followed the cavalry and advanced slowly!
The city lord's cavalry unit was added to a total of tens of thousands of people. It was like concentrating his strength to rush into the enemy camp like an awl. It should be said that on the one-acre three-point ground in Goguryeo, no infantry unit could resist and had to be washed through!
However, the cavalry of the city lord all fought on their own. Some soldiers rushed to the two sides and turned to escape, leaving the battlefield!
These escaped soldiers were the dead city lords. For these cavalrymen, their city lords were dead, so how could they stay here and work for other city lords? There was no chance to escape just now. Now, once there is a chance, the one who doesn’t escape is a fool... Nowadays, who is stupider than who is stupid!
When the infantry general saw that the city lords' cavalry had not yet rushed to the front, he ran away for half of them. He immediately laughed and said, "It's really God's help. It seems that Goguryeo will be mine in the future!" He waved his hand and ordered the archer to shoot the arrow!
The infantry troops were trained by Yoon Gaisuwen, and they were the most elite troops in Goguryeo. They had always had enough arrows. The soldiers raised their longbows and shot arrows into the air. The waves of arrows were shooting at the cavalry at all costs. Even when fighting against the Tang soldiers and the Silla soldiers, they were not as strong as that. The archers' fingers were broken, but they still kept shooting!
The overwhelming rain of arrows caused the cavalry to lose 30% of the cavalry. When the cavalry rushed into the infantry formation, the number was only more than 3,000!
The archers retreated into the formation, and the spearmen rushed up, stabbing the cavalry. Unfortunately, the infantry were too hasty and did not do too many horse-rejecting rifles. Otherwise, several rows of horse-rejecting rifles would stand up, and more than three thousand cavalry would be able to solve half of them in an instant!
The cavalry rushed into the infantry formation, and the two armies began to fight. In the blink of an eye, blood was flowing into a river. Hundreds of soldiers were killed and corpses were everywhere. Infantry could no longer be arranged in a square formation, and the cavalry could only dismount and fight in the field!
With the sound of the horn, the city lords' infantry troops rushed up and rushed into the position in the melee!
The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of weapons, and the sound of drums and trumpets mixed together! In front of the ruins of Xiao Chang'an, the Asura hell became, and blood was everywhere!
On the hill in the distance, Wang Ping'an was holding a bowl of broth and was drinking it with a sigh. He looked up at the battlefield, then looked down at the meat in the bowl. He felt very disgusting, so he turned his body over and did not look at the battlefield, and concentrated on drinking the broth!
Su Dingfang and Xue Renyi also held the broth, but they didn't feel anything disgusting. They chewed the meat cubes while chatting.
Xue Renyi took a sip of the soup, swallowed his throat, and said, "These Goguryeo people are very fierce in war. If you want to be fierce, they are not weaker than our Qingzhou soldiers. They should be stronger than ordinary soldiers, right?"
Su Dingfang chewed the horse meat in his mouth and shook his head, "You can't say that. This is a field battle. It's all Goguryeo people beat themselves. They know what the opponent is and have no worries. Naturally, the fight will be a little fierce. If they know that we are watching them from the mountain, they will not dare to let go and fight like this. They must keep some strength to deal with us!"
Xue Renyi nodded, lowered his head and drank the soup, and ate the meat inside with his fingers.
Wang Ping'an drank a bowl of broth, threw it away, turned around, and said, "Fortunately they have no city to defend, otherwise even if they suffer heavy losses, once they retreat to the city, we really have no way to deal with them. There are too many casualties and injuries in the attack. They can afford to defend, but we can't afford to attack!"
The generals on the hill nodded together. The Qingzhou soldiers did not bring supplies, and the food was almost broken, not to mention the ladders used to attack the city. If Xiao Chang'an was not burned, as long as the Goguryeo soldiers retreated into the city, there would be no cheaper outside the city!
The Qingzhou soldiers finished their meal, but the Goguryeo soldiers next to the ruins were still fighting, fighting until it was dark and the two armies were still fighting!
But from the situation, the troops of the city lords were at a disadvantage. The soldiers began to flee and refused to fight anymore. However, Yuan Gaisuwen's infantry troops became more and more brave. Although the soldiers suffered huge losses, as the victory was right in front of them, the soldiers and generals still tried their best to fight!
If the city lords have the advantage in the battle, the city lords can still unite, but as soon as they see the situation is gone, everyone's mind will be alive. Many city lords gradually gathered their soldiers and slowly withdrew from the battlefield, preparing to escape!
As the outcome was about to be decided, suddenly, the sound of a trumpet came from a distance, which was the long and short sound used by the Tang army to send orders. As long as the Goguryeo generals who participated in the battle against the Tang Dynasty knew the terribleness of this long and short sound!
The battlefield gradually became quiet, and the soldiers and generals stopped fighting for the time being and looked northwest together!
