Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The swords and guns are like forests, and the flags are like sea.  When Luo Yi led the fierce Turkic light cavalry out of Lulongsai and followed the ancient road in the river valley to the back of White Wolf City in the mountains, countless arrows poured down like heavy rain.  The Goguryeo people, who had been arrogant since Liaohe, finally felt fear.  When the fierce Turkic knights are equipped with Sui cavalry swords, rope armor, leather armor, and enough feather arrows, what a power they are. The feather arrows they equip are all made of excellent raptor feathers, matched with  With steel arrowheads attached, these arrows are far heavier and sharper than ordinary Turkic feather arrows.  The fine steel arrowhead is made into a triangular shape and has extremely strong armor-breaking properties.  The Turkic knights with excellent archery skill skillfully set their bows and arrows on horseback, and quickly shot out expensive three-edged armor-piercing arrows. The sharp arrows flew out with a whistling sound, penetrating into the Goguryeo people one after another.  in the body.  Rows of bright sword lights, rolling up countless bloody lights, on the front battlefield, Li Jing's flag soldiers have waved their flags, and the cuirassiers who have been recharging their strength after the armored chariots have finally been dispatched.  The cavalrymen, wearing dazzling mirror armor, got on their horses, divided into two parts, circled out from the left and right of the chariot formation, accelerated slowly, and rushed towards the enemy formation in a neat formation.  The cuirass knights drew their cavalry swords on their horses one after another. The swords were brighter than the snow, and the armor shone brightly in the sky.  The chariot array slowly advanced, squeezing the battlefield space step by step.  Anyone who stood in front of them was crushed into mud, with blood splashing everywhere. The Goguryeo people finally saw the power of the Sui people, and knew what a copper wall and an iron wall are, and what an iron cavalry is.  What is a mobile fortress?  What impressed them most at this time was that they understood the cunning of the Sui people opposite them.  These Sui troops suddenly left the pass and marched eastward along the sea.  Fight straight to Bailang City at the foot of Bailang Mountain.  The Sui army that suddenly arrived just surrounded but did not attack at first, which led them to send troops to help.  As a result, he was ambushed halfway.  If that's all, it's nothing.  But these shameless Han people always hide their own strength. When they came with a large army and finally broke through the interception on the road and rushed to the Bailang City for rescue, that damn Li Jing suddenly summoned many soldiers and horses again, and defeated Li Jing.  The newly arrived troops and horses also surrounded White Wolf City. Today, the two armies were fighting at the foot of the mountain. Li Jingjun was always being suppressed and beaten.  The continuous and slow retreat caused the city general to decide to rush out with his entire army and defeat Li Jing's Sui army in one fell swoop. Damn it, another large army suddenly appeared behind them.  Having suffered many losses and been deceived, the Goguryeo people, who had always been cautious, were still deceived.  They never expected that as early as the beginning of the army, Li Jing sent Luo Yi to lead a group of Turkic cavalry to take an ancient detour from the north.  Finally, when the Goguryeo soldiers and horses in Bailang City were all out and they were about to win, they suddenly appeared behind the Goguryeo people.  The Goguryeo people were attacked from both sides.  At this time, even if you want to withdraw to White Wolf City, it is already too late.  The cavalry troops advanced like a wall.  The cavalry swords and dense horse hooves became the nightmare of the Goguryeo people.  There are also the riding arrows of the Turkic cavalry that are constantly roaring from behind, plus those are extremely thick.  The mobile tank, which is harder than a turtle shell, is equipped with a catapult and a heavy crossbow.  The counterweighted catapult can be quickly assembled and disassembled, and combined with the chariot array, it has extremely strong striking power.  A piece of stone as big as a fist.  Some stone bullets as big as heads were even thrown high, and then whizzed into the Goguryeo military formation.  The winner will be killed immediately.  And the eight-ox three-bow crossbow can shoot continuously, and there is even a swarm of terrifying crossbow machines that can shoot a hundred arrows at a time.  When Luo Yiru appeared behind the Goguryeo people as planned, Li Jing finally showed a smile on his face.  It's time to end this battle. "Blow the trumpet and attack with the whole army." Countless crossbowmen began to stand on the chariot. Standing behind the chariot, as the chariot moved forward slowly, they shot an arrow at the Goguryeo people.  He shot out the sharp arrow in his hand.  Catapults and ballistae were also launched continuously, while spearmen and sword and shield soldiers firmly guarded the chariot and protected this moving castle. The Goguryeo people wanted to desperately attack the chariot array, but they could only throw away one  body.  In just a moment after the two armies attacked, hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers had already fallen.  They live in the bitter cold Liaodong and have always claimed to be the overlords of the East, but now, they are feeling cold in their hearts.  They had never fought a battle like this, a battle so utterly hopeless.  Gao Ning turned his head and looked at Gao Wu, who was more than ten feet behind. The Goguryeo prince's face turned pale, and he obviously did not expect that they would eventually fall into the trap carefully designed by the Sui people.  Gao Ning is still thinking about the prince's excitement when he heard that Sui general Li Jing finally no longer cowered like a tortoise behind the tall and sturdy Yuguan, but was willing to come out to fight.  It seemed that as soon as the Sui army came out of the pass, they had become a duck to be slaughtered and his prey.  But thinking about it now, Gao Wu was not the only one who held this attitude at that time.?At that time, we were not thinking that all the elite of the Sui people would be fighting the civil war in the west. Now the Sui army coming to fight is just a ragtag army made up of elements from all over the world.  At that time, he also thought about coming with Gao Wu and defeating these Sui armies with Gao Wu, and then he would make a military exploit, and maybe even become the first batch of soldiers to enter the pass.  Even at that time, I was thinking about how much rich loot I could grab and how I could make a fortune after entering the customs.  But who would have thought that Li Jing, whose name he had never heard before, was said to be only thirty years old, but could be so powerful.  There is also the Sui army that came out from behind. Where did they come from? The few soldiers and horses that rushed to the front just now have been completely defeated, and the few units in the rear formation have also been defeated by the surprise attack.  Li Jing is going to annihilate them all in one fell swoop and kill them all.  Xijing, the imperial city, the province under the door.  In the Political Affairs Hall, all nine prime ministers and deputy prime ministers were present. In addition, five chief and deputy privy envoys from the Privy Council were also summoned to the hall to report the latest military situation in western Liaoning to the emperor.  Yi Feng glanced at all the prime ministers and said, "Inform me about the military situation in Western Liaoning." Pei Zeng, the Military Intelligence Department of the Supervisory Academy who was attending the meeting, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, prime ministers, the latest military situation in Western Liaoning is that Marshal Li Jing of the Yanshan Road March led his troops a few days ago.  After leaving the pass, he fought with Goguryeo at White Wolf City. Li Jing first attacked and attacked all the way to White Wolf City, then encircled and failed to break through, luring the Goguryeo people to send troops to help, and then ambush and defeat them halfway.  Block the attack, and finally let the Goguryeo reinforcements enter Bailang City. Afterwards, Li Jing attacked the city and pretended to retreat, leading the Goguryeo troops out of the city to pursue them. The two sides fought on the banks of the Bailangshui River outside the city. After the Goguryeo troops were lured away from the city for dozens of miles, Luo Yi led another group of troops.  He arrived and appeared behind the Goguryeo people, and then the two armies attacked from behind, and the Goguryeo people were defeated. " Pei Zeng said in a very excited tone, "In the battle of White Wolf City, more than 8,000 people were beheaded and more than 13,000 people were captured.  , and recovered Bailang City, capturing more than 20,000 horses, countless armors, swords and guns, and tens of thousands of stones of food and grass. " Hearing this good news, all the officials in the political hall were very happy.  Only Yi Feng frowned. Yi Feng was already mobilizing troops and horses to gather in Youzhou and prepare to regain Yingzhou.  But Li Jing ignored his orders and went to war without permission. Although he won the battle, it was a risky act.  It would be good to win, but if they were defeated this time, Yuguan and Lulongsai might have been lost by now, and the Goguryeo people had already entered the pass and galloped into the flat plains of Hebei.  "Where is Li Jing now?" "General Li Jing left Yingzhou Governor Fang Qiao to guard Bailang City, and then he and General Luo Yi led the army eastward along the coast." Pei Zeng replied.  Recruiter Yang Su brought the map, glanced at it a few times, and said to Yi Feng with a worried look on his face, "Your Majesty, does Li Jing want to block Gao Yuan's retreat?" "This Li Jing is really brave." Yi Feng Zao  I have already guessed Li Jing's purpose.  He did not lead his troops east along the Bailang River towards Yingzhou, but instead headed eastward along the Liaoxi Corridor. It was obvious that he was not going in a circle to Yingzhou, but wanted to intercept and outflank Gao Yuan.  Judging from the direction Li Jing was heading, it was most likely that he was going to Songshan, which was later known as Jinzhou. He was going to hold the Daling River and cut off the passage between Yingzhou and Liaodong City, the important Goguryeo town on the east bank of the Liao River.  Jinzhou is indeed a good place, with rivers and mountains, and seizing it can achieve the goal.  However, Yi Feng is worried that although the terrain here is good, there is no solid city to rely on. In addition, it is four hundred miles away from Yuguan. The distance from Goguryeo Liaodong City to Jinzhou is also the same, and Yingzhou is closer to Jinzhou.  Li Jing was not going to intercept others, he was sending them to surround them.  "We must immediately send troops to western Liaoning." Privy Councilor Wang Bao expressed his opinion.  ¡°The food, grass, weapons, etc. are not ready yet.¡± Fan Zigai, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, told the truth.  Yi Feng waved his hand and said, "I can't wait any longer. Li Jing has already led his army into western Liaoning, and it's so deep that it's almost reaching the Liaohe River. If the imperial court can't follow up immediately, he will have a lone army."  We are in danger of being surrounded and eaten. Although I want to dismiss Li Jing immediately, I have to put this matter aside for now. Winning this battle is the most important thing. We cannot lose tens of thousands of troops in Liaoxi last year.  Thousands of people are there and cannot come again this year. The Privy Council immediately issued an order to mobilize troops. The Ministry of Civil Affairs must ensure the supply of food, grass and weapons no matter what." "Who should be sent to lead the troops?" Although Wang Bao is the Privy Council, it is the power to mobilize troops.  , the right to appoint generals is in the hands of the emperor.  Yi Feng glanced at the three deputy privy envoys, He Ruobi, Han Senshou, Shi Wansui, and the deputy envoy Li Jing. Right now, he was the one who was causing trouble and needed reinforcements.  "Commander Han, let's take a trip with the troops." Finally, Yi Feng selected Han Senshou's general. Li Jing is his nephew, I believe he will do his best, and Han Senshou is relatively prudent in his military use, and he is stillLi Jing, who has been defeated before and likes to use risks and surprises the most with Lang Feiqi, is completely different. With him taking action, Yi Feng can rest assured.  To be continued.  .
