Chapter 424: Depressed Ge Xiyuan

Views:

The generals of Silla and Baekje were not fools. At this moment, the front was torn open by the Tang army. It was not a big or small hole. The Tang army used the horse sword and the horizontal sword at the same time. It was like entering a deserted land. The long horse sword During the charge, the real power displayed is to drive straight in, like a fork, easily inserted into the cheese.

This caused the coalition soldiers who could not clearly see the situation ahead to react. Before they could react, they followed their companions in front. Under the powerful impact of the Tang Dynasty cavalry, they were pierced through the chest by a horse spear emitting an icy cold light. , tightly together with the companions in front, they were pierced on the long horse's trunk, and the heart-rending screams suddenly resounded through the sky. Even the war horses under their crotches were stunned by the screams of the owners on their backs. Suddenly startled, he turned around and rushed into his own battle formation, causing chaos again.

The horse trousers in the hands of the soldiers from the pagoda camp shook slightly, and the Silla and Baekje coalition soldiers who were originally pierced by the horse trousers fell to the ground with blood on their chests. The war horses passed by and trampled on the bodies penetrated by the horse trousers. From the chest, lower abdomen, hips, calves, thighs, etc., suddenly there were only screams and cries from the entire Silla and Baekje battle formations.

The Tang army on both sides ignored them and just galloped forward. If the generals of Silla and Baekje still didn't know, the enemy had instantly seen their scattered formation and was using the two wings to look for them. If it's the weakest point, then it really should be hit to death with a piece of tofu.

But when he wanted to order some troops to be dispersed to defend the two wings, the chaos caused by the hole torn in the middle by the Tang army made it impossible for him to convey the order to the two wings. At this time, the two wings were still following the front troops. Shocked, not even a single general paid attention to the encirclement from both wings of the Tang Dynasty.

Opportunities on the battlefield are fleeting, and the battle situation is also changing all the time. Before the two wings received the order from the city, the gap that was torn apart by Wei Tuqi's sudden attack was getting wider and wider at this time. , Wei Tuqi took the lead, the horse spear in his hand was like a silver lightning, and every time he thrust out, it would definitely bring out a handful of blood flowers and a scream.

The soldiers of the pagoda camp behind them, in the eyes of the soldiers of the Silla and Baekje coalition forces, these people are simply not human beings, but more like cold and heartless demons.

With their resolute and strong faces and cold murderous eyes, each of them is like a Shura who is fighting in a bloody battle. There is no emotion at all. He just stabs out the horse in his hand with an expressionless and cold expression, and can kill anyone in an instant. If two or even three cavalrymen are in a hurry, at least one of the three will be killed by the horse.

As for the horizontal sword in the left hand, as a weapon for melee protection that complements each other's strengths and weaknesses, it is extremely sharp and ruthless. It is suitable for stabbing, chopping, chopping and other battlefield killing moves. When faced with the iron weapons of Silla and Baekje, It has an overwhelming advantage in terms of quality.

A beautiful and short arc is drawn, and a forearm and a wrist will be tumbling in the air. As the forearm and wrist fly into the air, beautiful blood flowers will bloom in an instant. , and then scattered on the ground, either on horse armor or on soldiers' armor.

Li Hong on the top of the city held the flag tightly with one hand and looked at the battle with a telescope in the other. Yu Tuqi only knew how to fight and attack under his own orders, but forgot to look for the enemy's leader in the crowd.

However, the hole that was struck and torn apart by Yu Tuqi became larger and larger, which caused the center of the Silla and Baekje battle formations. At this time, it was like a big stone slamming into the lake, and the real splash was Real water splashes and wave ripples spread out.

The entire Silla and Baekje armies were about to be easily dispersed by the attack of a thousand men. However, there are no absolutes in anything. Relatively speaking, the thousand men of Uituqi were too few. In a battle formation with at least 20,000 people, it is extremely difficult to completely defeat the enemy at once.

What's more, the enemy is not stupid. The huge battle formation does not have more than 20,000 or 30,000 people gathered together. It also has a buffer zone between the battle formations, but the buffer zone at this moment is in one place. When the generals of the Silla and Baekje coalition forces faced the Tang army at the beginning of the confrontation with the Buddha camp, the moment of delay had been compressed to the point where there was not much distance left to buffer.

The instant deceleration of the enemy generals was the main reason for such a result, but more importantly, none of them expected that the already empty Ryugyong City would take the initiative to attack them, catching them off guard and making them lose their foothold. This was completely unexpected. They thought they would only stick to the city.

Therefore, from the beginning of this battle, they lost the initiative and could only be passively beaten now.

What Li Hong wants on the city wall is the moment when the buffer zone between their battle formations is squeezed and lost by their own people. Only when there is complete chaos between them can the pagoda camps on both wings play a real role and defeat the enemy. The military's numerical advantage completely turned into their disadvantage.

As soon as he put the telescope in his hand, the flag in his hand danced vigorously on the city wall, and the flags were conveyed from the city wall to the eyes of the soldiers of the Futu Camp on both wings.

It was like there was an invisible line between the flag and the pagoda camp that was galloping in the distance. As the flag swung, the pagoda camp on both wings plunged into the enemy camp without fear of death. .

As they expected, the enemy troops here were completely defenseless. When they saw a thousand people from the Pagoda Camp attacking in a cone shape, the Silla and Baekje coalition forces suddenly became confused and howled like ghosts. He actually began to retreat back. In the crowded situation, many people were squeezed off the horse before they could realize what was going on. Before the soldier got up and grabbed the reins again, the iron hoofs of the war horse stepped on them. On his waist, or on other people's backs, the entire enemy formation suddenly became a mess.

"Jingzhe and Mang Zhong listened to the order and immediately led five thousand gold guards each. They will definitely annihilate the Silla and Baekje coalition forces!" Li Hong slammed the flagpole to the ground and said quickly.

"Yes, Your Highness." Jingzhe and Mangzhong saluted quickly, and then they did not walk down the city wall, but jumped directly from the city wall. The war horse felt a weight on its back, raised its front hooves and neighed, and immediately jumped on Jingzhe Under the control of He Mang Zhong, he rushed towards the city gate like an arrow from a string.

After Yutuqi tore a hole, the Jinwu Guards had already assembled. If Yutuqi and the others could not disrupt the enemy, then the Jinwu Guards would welcome them back to the city and cut off their rear. If this happened now, it would be beneficial to the Tang Army. As a result, the Jinwu Guards will serve as the main force to annihilate the enemy, striving to annihilate all those more than 20,000 to 30,000 people.

"Your Highness!" Ge Xiyuan had been standing behind Li Hong for a while, but he was afraid of the military order Li Hong issued when he was at the foot of Anshi City, so he did not dare to step forward and speak for a long time.

Li Hong took another look at the battle situation in front of the city, then turned around and slowly pulled out the horizontal knife from his waist, and said coldly: "Just say what you want to say, I'll give you one last chance!"

"Pfft!" Ge Xiyuan understood what this last chance meant, that is, no matter what he said, he would be executed on the spot by His Highness immediately!

Gexi Yuantou pressed close to the ground of the city wall and hummed: "Your Highness, please calm down. I am following His Majesty's orders to find out if Your Highness took the initiative to attack."

Hearing Ge Xiyuan's explanation, Li Hong twitched his lips with a sneer, and slowly sheathed the horizontal sword in his hand: "Get up and speak."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ge Xiyuan's legs felt weak. Who said that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger? Being with His Highness is not as good as being with the Emperor. This is a job where one's head will fall off all the time.

"Didn't you see it already? I've already sent out the whole army, why don't you go and respond?" Li Hong turned around and continued to stare at the battle group ahead.

The Jinwu Guards are like gods descending to earth. They wear Mingguang Armor, which is the opposite of the Xuanjia Army. It is their most unique symbol. Similarly, on the battlefield, when blood splashes on their silver Mingguang Armor, it shows a bright red. , and it has the effect of deterring the enemy.

Ge Xiyuan took two steps closer to Li Hong so that his Highness could hear his voice clearly despite the interference of the distant battle groups' fighting. He saluted and said, "Your Highness, will you tell your Majesty the truth?"

"No need to report." Before Li Hong could answer, Li Zhi's dissatisfied voice sounded from behind him.

Li Hong looked up at the sky speechlessly. Why did this cheating father Long come to the top of the city? Hua Meng and the others are pigs!

Forget it, even if he is not a pig, no one dares to care about the emperor's freedom, including himself. Do you really dare not to let him move around as he pleases? If he dares, Father Long will definitely do it in front of his wife after he returns to Chang'an. Complaint.

Li Zhi clasped his hands behind his back, looked coldly, and glanced at Ge Xiyuan dissatisfiedly. He heard every word of what he just said.

Isn't Ge Xiyuan just afraid that he will give random orders again? Are you afraid that once you tell yourself that Li Hong is really taking the initiative to attack, you will order him to stop attacking without asking any questions

At this time, the most depressed person on the city wall was Ge Xiyuan. Seeing Li Zhi glare at him with dissatisfaction, how could he not know that the words he had just asked His Highness had been listened to without missing a word, so He knelt on the ground with a thud again.

'Hey... this is life. In just a few breaths, I have knelt down twice on the city wall. No matter what, I won’t participate in the military anymore. Even if His Majesty drives me to conquer the country again, I won’t come. As long as I can survive the siege of Silla and Baekje, I will honestly just be a civil servant. Stay out of it! I no longer expect to broaden my official career and gain military glory. '

"Chen Ge Xiyuan has met your Majesty and asks Your Majesty to atone for his sins." Ge Xiyuan was about to cry again. His eyes were not swollen from crying just now. He was a little worried whether he would have to cry again soon.

"I won't argue with you! Get out of the way." Naturally, Li Zhi would not give him a good look now, and he dared to arrange himself in this way. Could it be that he didn't understand military affairs and didn't know the priorities of things? Isn’t it a long lesson that I don’t understand? It really deserves to be killed!
