"Discover the Liao soldiers."

Guoyi's commander Ma Wenju rode back on a horse and reported that the enemy was discovered.

"The defender of Liaodong City?" asked Li Daozongle, the 40-year-old Jiangxia King, and the horse was in a standstill.

The burly Ma Duwei shook his head and said, "It's still thirty miles away from Liaodong City. The Liao soldiers found came down from the north along the Shahe River. We grabbed two tongues, and they said they were reinforcements coming from Wugu City."

Hearing that it was reinforcements from Wugu City, Li Daozong immediately took out a map of Liaodong from his arms. Wugu City is not close to this place. Wugu City is on the banks of the Ai River, a tributary of Yalushui, and is four or five hundred miles away.

“How many people?”

"We met their forwards, about 10,000 people, and there were about 30,000 behind them."

Li Dao frowned, "How did these people appear here?"

"I heard that General Cheng broke through several cities in Goguryeo in the north. These people were originally planning to reinforce Gaimu City, but they were captured by General Cheng before they arrived. They did not dare to fight, so they turned to the south to Liaodong City."

"Why don't you let them go?" said Deputy General Zhang Junyi.

Li Daozong was a little hesitant.

"If we let them go, forty thousand troops will enter Liaodong City and strengthen the army with the strength of Liaodong City. I am afraid that it will be more difficult to attack by then." He gritted his teeth, "We cannot let them enter Liaodong City, find a way to block them."

Zhang Junyi advised, "Prince, our troops are only 4,000 cavalry, and they are still rushing here all the way. Now people are tired of horses, and there is no chance of winning in the field. Besides, the city of Liaodong is thirty miles east, and the Liao soldiers in the city will come at any time."

"Then we can't let them go." Li Daozong said, "The Duke of Wei won all the battles in the south and had won the first merit. Duke of Lu also captured several cities in Goguryeo in the north. We finally acted as the vanguard, but we dared not fight when we met the enemy. Our Tang Dynasty has not only Duke Wei, but also generals like Duke Lu, so we are not bad?"

Ma Wenju immediately volunteered.

"The last general is willing to lead the thousand cavalry in the headquarters to take the lead. Before the Goguryeo people found us, they caught him off guard and destroyed his forward first!"

Zhang Junyi was the chief marching officer and the deputy general of these 4,000 people. After hearing Ma Wenju's arrogant words, he immediately scolded him.

Ma Wenju didn't give up.

He shouted with a modao, "How can one show a hero if he doesn't fight against a strong enemy?"

In other words, Ma Wenju is not a simple figure. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, he followed Yang Guang to conquer Goguryeo and fought in Liaodong City. At that time, he was Yang Guang's Xiaoguo Army and was already a general. Later, he failed the Eastern Expedition and experienced the siege of Yanmen, and finally followed Yang Guang to Jiangdu.

At that time, Ma Wenju was young and strong, and was very dissatisfied with Yang Guang's nostalgia for Jiang, so he followed Shangguan Sima Dekan, Yu Wenhua and others to launch a mutiny in Jiangdu, and forced Yang Guang to be killed with Pei Qiantong and others.

Later, Ma Wenju followed Yu Wenhua and others to lead Xiaoguo's army to return west, and finally defeated and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

Ma Wenju was extremely brave. Yang Guang's Xiaoguo Army was originally an elite soldier selected from the elite. It was a personal army of the emperor and was always recruiting troops, which was different from ordinary government soldiers.

It’s a pity that because of the monarchy, Ma Wenju has not been promoted much in nearly twenty years after returning to the Tang Dynasty. He is still a Guoyi Commander, but he is still better than Pei Qiantong and others who were still held accountable for the crime of tyranny in the Zhenguan Dynasty.

He was about to know his destiny at the age of fifty years, but Ma Wenju was still brave and arrogant.

Li Daozong looked at Ma Wenju for a while and nodded to him.

"Okay, you can lead the thousand cavalry of our headquarters to test those Liao soldiers."

When he led the front army to leave, Li Daozong immediately asked the entire army to start wearing armor to prepare for war.

Ma Wenji's command came from the Flying Cavalry Camp of the Yulin Army in Beiya, also known as the Qianqi Camp. It was an elite guard guard like the Xiaoguo Army back then. They were all from Guanlong and were very brave.

I heard from Ma Wenju that he would fight against thousands of horses, and each of them was excited and brave, and all rode their horses and followed them.

A thousand riders were quietly ambushing on the road.

When ten thousand troops in front of Wugu City arrived like a long snake, Ma Wenqiu pulled up the war horse, turned over and jumped up, waved the Modao and shouted loudly, and the knights behind him boarded the horse and followed the charge.

"How can you show a hero and make a contribution if you don't encounter a strong enemy?"

When he galloped in Liaodong again, Ma Wen couldn't help but climbed through the scenes from more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was a junior of the general and responded to Xiaoguo's order to recruit Xiaoguo and conquer Liaodong.

Those who responded with him were also many people like the Flying Fairy Chen Guang, who were all heroes and young heroes in the capital, and were brave and brave. With his outstanding skills, Chen Guang first climbed Liaodong City, was defeated by the defenders, and was able to jump up and climb up the city with a sword again, which made the emperor admire him, and he was promoted to a fifth-rank chaotic doctor, rewarded a good horse and a sword, and brought it to the guards by his side.

Although Ma Wenju did not perform as well as Chen Guang on the battlefield in Liaodong, he also saved a lot of Goguryeo's heads with his real skills and was awarded the title and promoted step by step.

Looking back, the past is like smoke.

I am no longer young, no longer a twenty-year-old boy, but the passion in my chest has not yet been extinguished.

This Eastern Expedition was an opportunity he finally asked for. It was hard to come by, and it needed to cherish it more and more.

"Kill the thief!"

Ma Wenju waved his sword and took the lead in breaking into the enemy formation.

The Goguryeo people were killed and caught off guard. They reinforced Gaimo and went south to Liaodong City. Liaodong City was in sight, so they relaxed their vigilance. No one expected that they would be attacked under Liaodong City.

Ma Wenju was still strong, and he swung his sword on the horse, slashing left and right, killing several people in a row.

The Imperial Knights of the Flying Cavalry Camp behind them all rushed forward with a roar. One thousand cavalry suddenly exerted the momentum of tens of thousands of horses. Tens of thousands of Goguryeo's black bone soldiers were beaten and ran around. After the Goguryeo General was panicked, he found that only a thousand cavalry attacked, so he immediately calmed down.

Start command and transfer.

The front part was broken, but fortunately there were many people and the six or seven thousand cavalry behind it was not messed up.

General Goguryeo, who had recovered from his senses, mobilized his troops and set up a formation to block the attack from the front, and sent troops to encircle them from both wings, preparing to eat the thousands of arrogant Tang cavalry.

At the city of Gaimu, they did not dare to go up in the face of the powerful Tang army, but now, don’t they dare to fight alone Tang army?

Infantry formed a strong formation, spearheaded like a forest, and archers from behind also shot in a dense manner.

Ma Wenju and others broke through the front army and rushed to the front, but could not rush through.

Although the Qianqi Camp is an elite imperial guard, it is just a light cavalry after all. Facing the dense spear formation and the rain of arrows all over the sky, there are too few in number.

After rushing for several rounds, he left corpses everywhere in front of the formation.

The Goguryeo cavalry surrounded from both sides, and Ma Wenju and others were surrounded and could only fight to the death.

At this time, Li Daozong finally arrived with more than 3,000 troops.

"Mr. Zhang, I will use you one left and one right, and I will cover my wings to kill them, and kill them first."

Li Daozong made a quick arrangement, and the two led 1,500 cavalry into the battlefield.

Zhang Junyi looked at Ma Wenju who was already in siege and spit out, "Why should the prince save this regicide? Wasn't he very arrogant just now?"

Li Daozong looked unhappy, "Now is not the time to talk about this."

"Then please ask the prince to take charge of the formation here. Finally, the general leads the troops to tear open the gap and rescue the monarch. How can the prince's daughter easily take risks?"

Zhang Junyi persuaded Li Daozong to stay and led his troops to kill him.

Zhang Junyi was also a powerful general of the Imperial Army. He led the light cavalry to rush over and slashed at the Goguryeo people.

It was about to tear a hole open and rescue Ma Wenju. As a result, the horses behind were as thunderous as the horses, and another Goguryeo cavalry arrived, but the troops behind were accelerating when they heard the news.

Zhang Junyi was caught off guard and was chasing the Goguryeo people, but he was suddenly surrounded by the counterattack of the Goguryeo cavalry. The number difference between the two sides was too large.

He couldn't figure out how many people came to the enemy. Anyway, the sight of them was all Goguryeo's men and horse flags. Looking over there, there was no trace of Ma Wenju's troops.

I don't know if it was annihilated or in battle.

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Junyi ordered a breakout and retreat.

"withdraw!"

Zhang Junyi turned around and retreated, and the other Tang cavalry also ran with the flag. The Goguryeo people chased each other and fought hard. For a moment, the Tang cavalry was in a very embarrassment.

Li Daozong led hundreds of cavalry to watch the battle in the rear, but he saw Zhang Junyi retreating in a short while. What was terrible was that he only wanted to escape, but the thousands of cavalry had no formation and showed signs of defeat.

Li Daozong is also known as the famous king of the royal family. He imitated his cousin Li Shimin everywhere. He was guarding Lingzhou in Shuofang for many years and practiced with Turks. Later, he fought against Tuyuhun and others. He had good military command ability, otherwise it would not be his turn to be the pioneer this time.

King Jiangxia was furious. Even if the battle situation was not good, it had to ensure the formation. You could pull it. You could not just run around like this. How could you take it back if you run away?

Li Daozong raised his horse spear and led his personal soldiers to go upwards. He waved his spear and knocked down several running cavalrymen one after another, and then ordered that those who dared to continue to escape would kill Wuhe.

Finally, the defeated cavalry stopped and gathered again behind him.

Li Daozong ignored the dissuasion of his personal soldiers, and led the light cavalry and guards he had escorted, and then brought the defeated soldiers he had just stopped, and rushed towards the Goguryeo pursuers.

Less than a thousand riders.

Go upstream!

King Jiangxia took the lead, just like Ma Wenju and Zhang Junyi before, but this time the situation he faced was even worse, but he was not at all timid.

Thousands of riders recoil.

Li Daozong led his cavalry to rush left and right, and directly stared at the position of the Goguryeo commander and went to kill him, regardless of it.

If the war reaches this point, even if it is dead, it will have to fight to the death to take some people.

The princes had already charged in person. Who would run away again? They all turned around and fought back, and even followed the flag of the Goguryeo general.

Capture the king first, and ignore the others first.

The Goguryeo commander was also panicked. Who had ever encountered this kind of playing style? Isn’t this crazy?

He had just sent all the cavalry out to surround the two cavalry that had attacked before and all of them were spread out. At this time, the rear formed a formation and a vacant defense appeared. Li Daozong came over so desperately that he could only avoid the edge for the time being.

So they chased and ran.

Li Daozong chased after him desperately, and the former commander of Goguryeo's army fled desperately. Then more Goguryeo people chased Li Daozong from behind, and even the Ma Wenju army, who was already in desperate situation, suddenly had more vitality.

A chaotic battle.

Li Daozong finally failed to catch up with the Goguryeo's main general. Moreover, as time passed, reinforcements continued to come from behind Goguryeo. Soon, Li Daozong and thousands of forwards under his command had been surrounded again, and this time everyone was surrounded.

A thunder sounded in the sky.

It's raining.

Then the horse's hooves on the west side were thunderous.

A Tang army general was carrying a helmet and armor, holding a black lacquered horse spear, carrying a nine-section steel whip, and behind him were eight thousand Tang cavalry.

"Yu, Goguryeo kid, don't hurt me, Prince of Tang, you Grandpa Yuchi is here!"

At the critical moment, Yuchi Gong led 8,000 cavalry to arrive. He came to earth like a god of gods and came to the world. He led 8,000 light cavalry to stab into the Goguryeo army like a sharp sword, and then cut it hard.

Goguryeo tried to encircle and divide these thousands of Tang cavalry again, but this time she could no longer bear it. Yuchi Gong was so fierce that no one could stop him, and the eight thousand elite cavalry that were so majestic that she could do everything.

Under their continuous charge, the Goguryeo Army was defeated layer by layer. In the end, about 20,000 people on the battlefield fled and ran around. Yuchi Gong and Li Daozong led the Tang cavalry, who were like wolves and tigers, to chase and kill them all the way.
