Liaodong City was completely silent, but it gave people an inexplicable chill, as if a ferocious beast could explode and hurt people at any time.
The red candles danced, illuminating the hall and reflecting the excited expressions of the soldiers. Each one of them looked at their superior Qin Huaidao feverishly, gearing up and wishing they could fight immediately.
Qin Huaidao was excited when he saw that his army was ready. If he could win this battle, the enemy troops outside the city would have no worries, and the situation would change drastically. If he lost, the whole army might be wiped out. It can be said to be a big gamble, one that can only be won but not lost.
Looking around with sharp eyes, he landed on Li Yixie.
Li Yihui stepped forward with interest: "General, according to observation, there is no large-scale movement of torches in the enemy's formation, and there is no abnormality. Of course, it may be too far away to see clearly, and the enemy has made arrangements secretly."
"The army is mobilized at night, and torches are a necessity. As long as you don't see large-scale movement of torches, it means there is no big problem. If Zhu Huchen is really willing to surrender and has already left with his troops, the King of Goguryeo will be short of 10,000 people, plus there are countless wounded.
Morale is low. I'm afraid the troops will retreat early tomorrow morning. We must not let them escape. We must take action tonight." Qin Huaidao's tone was firm, revealing an inexplicable murderous intention.
Everyone nodded, their eyes becoming more and more fanatical.
Qin Huaidao saw that morale was available and warned: "If anything unusual is discovered, quickly evacuate back to the city. Don't be reluctant to fight. Preserve your strength first. If the matter can be done, strangle me at all costs. Who has a problem?"
"No!" everyone shouted in unison.
"Okay, let's fight!" Qin Huaidao raised his fist and waved it resolutely and powerfully, as if he wanted to smash the enemies outside the city into pieces.
The generals accepted the order with a bang, strode out of the hall, and went straight to their respective posts.
Qin Huaidao was also wearing chain mail, and carried the double knives on the desk behind his back. He checked the dog-legged knife tied to the outside of his thigh, picked up the stainless steel horse and walked out of the hall, got on his horse, and said specially to Li Yixie.
A team of Yulin Guards said: "Everyone, tonight's battle is going to be a disaster, but there will be a lot of misfortune. Do you have any complaints?"
"Back to General, brothers have been prepared to die in battle. They will fight for the Tang Dynasty without any regrets." Dui Zheng said quickly.
"Well done. As expected of me, the Yulin Guards of the Tang Dynasty. I am a personal soldier of the Holy Lord. However, I hope that you all will live well. Remember, when we fight together, you must follow me and use the crossbow to cover and shoot.
, Don’t stand in front of this general and get in the way.” Qin Huaidao solemnly warned.
The pro-soldiers have the responsibility to protect the general. If the general dies in battle, the pro-soldiers will be severely punished, for example, they will protect him to the death.
Qin Huaidao didn't like to be protected by others, as it would affect the performance of his combat power. This Yulin Guard had seen Qin Huaidao's combat power, and knew that what he said was true, so they nodded and did not insist.
"Set off!"
Qin Huaidao rode forward, and the Yulin guards mounted their horses to follow.
After walking out of the city lord's mansion, An Guogong was waiting at the gate, clasping his fists and saying, "General, take care!"
"You too, there must be no chaos in Liaodong City, and heavy rules will be used when necessary." Qin Huaidao warned.
Zhi lost his mind and understood the idea, and promised: "Don't worry, there are a thousand people to help, who dares not to open his eyes, I can still lift the sword, even if I die, I will protect Liaodong City and wait for the general's return."
"Thank you." Qin Huaidao cupped his hands and galloped forward.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the west gate, just in time to catch up with Captain Chi Baolin and the imperial army quietly leaving the city. When he stepped forward, Yu Chi Baolin was shocked and asked: "General, what are you doing?"
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. Don't let anyone know that this general is also leaving the city, otherwise the city may be unstable." Qin Huaidao said in a low voice, riding at the front.
Only then did Yuchi Baolin react. When he thought of Qin Huaidao's presence, his confidence greatly increased. He quickly sent someone to give the order. The team accelerated out of the city and marched according to the planned route. The horses' hooves were wrapped in hay and cloth to avoid making too much noise and exposing the officers and soldiers when they were not close.
They also wore white cloths around their necks and covered their mouths to prevent shouting to a certain extent.
The team walked slowly under the hazy moonlight. Qin Huaidao walked at the front, his eyes steady, staring ahead with a keen insight into everything. It is fake to not be anxious in his heart. If there is a conspiracy, the consequences are unimaginable, but if it succeeds, the benefits will be there.
It's also hard to imagine.
While walking, Qin Huaidao vaguely saw the patrolling enemy troops, saw the flags hunting in the wind, and saw the beating bonfire licking the night. Everything was normal and the silence was reassuring, but who can be sure of the calmness behind it?
Does it contain a storm?
We are only a thousand meters away from the enemy's formation. If we charge at this distance, our horses will be at full speed when we reach the enemy's formation. If we charge later, we will not be able to get up immediately.
The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Qin Huaidao looked at the calm formation in front and immediately looked at Yuchi Baolin. Yuchi Baolin nodded knowingly and immediately raised his hand. This was the pre-arranged attack signal. The soldiers took out their repeating crossbows and made
Prepare for battle.
After a moment, Yuchi Baolin pointed forward with his big hand.
"drive--"
The officers and soldiers who had been silent all shouted and slapped their horses with their weapons, and the peaceful night was instantly broken.
Qin Huaidao also rode forward, lowering his body. Behind him were the Yuchi Baolin brothers and Yu Linwei. When other officers and soldiers saw Qin Huaidao leading the charge forward, they suddenly became brave and fought hard to catch up, fearing that they would fall behind.
The war horses speed up together, and the sound of horse hooves becomes louder and denser, shaking the wilderness.
When the enemy troops in the large formation in front heard the sound of horse hooves, they all came out of the camp to check, pulled out their swords, and asked each other about the situation. Qin Huaidao then saw clearly the light of the bonfire in the large formation, and confirmed that the enemy was not pretending. He put down his heart and shouted: "Everyone
You will obey my order and kill with me!"
"kill!"
Countless people stood up, shouted, and raised their repeating crossbows.
Two thousand war horses swept over like a hurricane. Qin Huaidao rushed at the front. The stainless steel horse pole stretched out suddenly and flew away a horse-rejecting stake blocking the front. He rode forward and rushed forward. Yuchi Baolin also flew one away and followed closely.
Qin Huaidao shouted from behind: "Follow closely and kill!"
The Habayashi Guards rushed forward, and the team leader also flew a horse-repelling stake, widening the gap. The soldiers rushed in swarm and started shooting at the front.
Suddenly, the arrows flew over like locusts, overwhelming the sky and falling into the enemy group, screaming loudly.
Qin Huaidao galloped forward with his horse, and flew a large pot with his horse's spear. The hot water was boiling in the pot, and the water extinguished the bonfire below. The surrounding area suddenly became much darker. Qin Huaidao did not stop, and rushed over with his horse's spear.
The snake, like a dragon, stabbed the person standing in front of it, and with a sharp swing, chopped off the torch fixed on a tent.
"Extinguishing!"
A roar spread like thunder.
The soldiers reacted, quickly dispersed, went straight to the burning torches around them, picked them up and threw them at the enemies, scaring the enemies to avoid them. The bonfire fell to the ground, and the light could not be far away. Those who had no chance to hold the torches used repeating crossbows.
Shoot visible enemies to cause chaos.
The enemy was caught off guard and could not stop them at all. Two thousand men and horses followed Qin Huaidao and rushed into the formation. They were like a tornado, with corpses all over the ground. There were many fewer torches for lighting, and the visibility dropped sharply. The enemy in the distance was
The army could not see the real situation and did not dare to send troops to help rashly.
Cheng Chuliang and Cheng Chubi each led a thousand men and rushed in from both sides to expand the victory and prevent the enemy from rolling back the golden hook.
"Who is coming?"
A general from the enemy army suddenly rushed out, roaring and slashing at the horse's legs with his sword.
"Herod!"
The white-hoofed Wu Youling screamed and stood up to avoid the fatal knife. After landing, he rushed up and kicked the opponent's chest with a horse's hoof, kicking him away. Qin Huaidao's horse followed closely, almost at the same time.
Pierce the opponent's body, throw the body out with all your strength, and knock down several enemy soldiers.
"Well done, let's fight side by side tonight and kill happily, hahaha!" Qin Huaidao touched the white-hoofed black neck to encourage him. His fighting spirit skyrocketed. With this, he could channel the war horse. What else should he be afraid of?
The war horse seemed to understand Qin Huaidao's thoughts. He shouted excitedly and suddenly accelerated forward. Qin Huaidao only had to lift the horse's shaft and adjust the direction. He did not need to use force at all. The horse's shaft caught the momentum of the war horse and moved forward, easily tearing open a
An enemy soldier's neck.
The war horse is so fast that no one can avoid it.
"Puff puff!"
There was the sound of metal cutting through flesh, blood splattered, and screams continued.
Yuchi Baolin saw it clearly. He didn't expect to be able to kill enemies like this. It was a magic weapon for rushing into battle. He also learned to raise the horse's horse and let the horse rush forward without using any moves. He only needed to aim at the enemy's neck.
A horse's stem can be long or short, up and down depending on the heart, and no one can avoid it.
At this moment, the two of them rushed forward like plowing a hole in a courtyard, picking up the corpses on the ground. The Yulin Guards followed closely behind the two of them and did not put out the fire. They kept in mind Qin Huaidao's instructions before leaving and kept shooting those who were blocking the way.
Enemies, especially archers trying to attack with cold arrows.
Fifty Yulin Guards and fifty repeating crossbows, once the firepower is fully activated, the lethality is astonishing.
Two thousand cavalrymen, under the command of Yuchi Baoqi, extinguished fire when they saw it, and killed people when they saw it. They had powerful weapons such as serial crossbows, and their firepower output was uninterrupted. The incident happened suddenly, and the enemy was stunned. Who could stop them?
Cries of killing and screams resounded through the night sky.
Two thousand people are like two thousand seducers emerging from hell, killing and reaching the sky!
"Who dares to charge into battle!"
There was a loud roar, and then a big man came out of the tent. He was disheveled and had obviously just woken up. He was holding a big knife in his hand. When he saw Qin Huaidao, he rushed over.
Qin Huaidao rushed forward without showing any signs of weakness, stabbing fiercely with his horse's spear, moving as fast as a shadow like the wind, and transformed into a spear flower in front of the enemy general, with a sharp cold light and murderous intent like frost.
The enemy general was shocked. He was frightened by this terrible attack method. His body exploded. A arrow flew up and sank into the opponent's abdomen like a meteor. The opponent's body froze. Qin Huaidao rushed forward and slashed with his horse.
A ray of white light struck down, which was particularly eye-catching in the night with extremely poor visibility.
"Pfft!"
Ma Shan's sharp blade struck the opponent's neck. Qin Huaidao followed the trend and pulled out a deep wound. The opponent collapsed to the ground, lifeless on the spot. Qin Huaidao did not even look at the opponent and continued to rush forward, raising his head.
Looking ahead, he saw that he was not very far away from the Chinese army's tent. He cheered up and shouted: "Rush forward, capture the King of Goguryeo alive, and kill him -"
"Kill!"
The soldiers roared in unison and started killing like crazy. When they heard that the King of Goguryeo was captured alive, their morale soared. They struck faster, more accurately, and more severely. Their violent murderous intent shot straight into the night sky, as if they wanted to tear the night apart.
"Kill!"
Crazy shouts of killing also rang out from both sides, and Chu Liang and Chu Bi came up with their troops to pursue them.
The response from the brother troops made everyone want to fight, burning with blood, and their eyes turned red. The endless fighting spirit was beating and burning. There was only one thought in everyone's mind - follow the front and kill them!
The enemy soldiers couldn't see clearly how many people were coming, where they were, or what was happening on their side, so they fled one after another.
But the soldiers dispersed in pursuit, blended in with the enemy, killed them, and extinguished the bonfires that were lighting them.
The enemy did not know who was their own and who was their opponent. When they saw people falling down around them, they became angry, panicked, and frightened. In order to repay themselves, they began to chop at those who blocked their way and all suspicious people.
Look.
Human nature is selfish. Instead of being hacked by others, it is better to kill others first and survive.
It's such a mess, nothing can be seen clearly, who knows whether it's an enemy or a friend?
Soon, the panic expanded and spread rapidly around. In order to survive, he did not care about anything.
The camp was blown up!
Qin Huaidao was overjoyed when he saw this scene. The Chinese army's tent was not far away and he shouted: "Capture the King of Goguryeo alive!"
"Kill--"
"Capture the King of Goguryeo alive!"
The soldiers roared one after another, and their morale was like a rainbow.
Further away, the unclear Goguryeo officers and soldiers did not know that Qin Huaidao wanted to capture the King of Goguryeo alive, and mistakenly thought that the King of Goguryeo had been captured alive. When they saw the chaos in the direction of the Chinese army's tent, and the shouts of killing were loud, they panicked for a moment.
When we arrived at the front, many people rushed towards us, the darkness was overwhelming, they were hacking and killing without caring about anything. This was the most terrifying bombing of a camp in the legend. They panicked and ran away with their respective troops.
The Chinese army's tent had been prepared for a long time, but when they saw countless people rushing towards them, they couldn't stop them at all, so they panicked and left a force to block them, while the others quickly left.
Qin Huaidao rushed up on his horse and saw a young general leading people to meet him. He was wearing extraordinary armor and his identity was probably not simple. Looking at the troops he brought with him, they were well-equipped. They were probably the personal guards of the King of Goguryeo. He rushed up and Ma Shan
One thrust, thrusting with an aura that penetrated everything.
"Who is coming?" the young general shouted.
"Too much nonsense, die!"
Qin Huaidao shouted loudly, and with the sudden increase in horse speed, Ma Shan stabbed the opponent hard in the heart.
The other party never expected that Qin Huaidao's attack speed would be so fast. He looked at his heart in disbelief and was a little confused for a moment.
"Protect the prince!" the soldiers behind shouted and rushed towards him.
Qin Huaidao didn't understand and didn't care. His horse shook him and threw the man away, smashing him into pieces. The war horse was psychic and jumped up, trampling on two people and knocking one of them away. Qin Huaidao laughed loudly, with murderous intent rising to the sky.
Ma Cha flew up and down as if alive, killing enemies one by one and falling to the ground.
At this time, Yuchi Baolin also rushed up and blocked the other side. The two fought side by side, killing the enemies until they fell to the ground, and no one could catch a single move.
The Yulin Guards also rushed forward, killing in the rear to block the sneak attack.
In the blink of an eye, two thousand cavalry also rushed up. A burst of arrows passed by, knocking down a large area. The arrows were shot out one after another, rushing towards the target like a life-threatening talisman. How could this enemy army withstand such a dense and fast arrow fire?
Most of them fell down in an instant, and the rest were so scared that they had no one to direct them, so they turned around and ran away.
"Catch them and kill them all." Qin Huaidao roared and charged forward on horseback.
Soon, Qin Huaidao rushed to the door of the big tent, opened the door curtain with a horse pole and took a look. It was empty, there was no one, only a bunch of bonfires were dancing. The King of Goguryeo ran away, and he was furious and shouted: "Everyone
Listen to the order and shout while beating, the King of Goguryeo is dead."
"The King of Goguryeo is dead!"
"The King of Goguryeo is dead!"
"The King of Goguryeo is dead!"
The soldiers didn't know why, but they resolutely carried out the order. They rushed and beat fiercely, shouting loudly.
The enemy did not know the truth. When they saw that the Chinese army's tent was being stormed and no one came to notify them, they thought that the King of Goguryeo was really killed. They were all in chaos. The last bit of luck collapsed and they did not bother to fight. They fled one after another, even more sharp swords.
He slashes at those who block the way forward, for fear of being overtaken.
For a time, the enemy army became even more chaotic.
Qin Huaidao led his troops to cover up and kill them, and their crossbows flew like rain, harvesting areas in pieces.
The battle turned into a one-sided massacre!
After killing the enemy camp in one breath, there was no trace of the King of Goguryeo, and he probably escaped. This was a fly in the ointment, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart because of his evil spirit. Qin Huaidao led his army to turn around and fight back, continuing to expand the results of the battle.
The enemy troops were so demoralized by the killing that they could no longer organize any effective counterattack and fled.
The soldiers rushed all the way and killed no one knows how many. When they arrived, Qin Huaidao took the lead. He saw a dark and large team rushing towards him. He thought it was the enemy organizing an effective counterattack and shouted: "Follow me.
Scatter them!"
"General, it's me!" Li Yixie's voice came.
Qin Huaidao heard this clearly and quickly shouted: "Our people, rush to the side and kill!"
"Follow me!" Yuchi Baolin shouted knowingly. He led his troops to change the direction of attack and continued to charge. There were fleeing enemies everywhere. The opportunity was rare. How long would it take if we didn't take the opportunity to kill the enemies?
A general came over on horseback. It was Li Yixie. He shouted excitedly: "General, why did you come to the south gate? Are you okay?"
"It's okay, how are you?" Qin Huaidao asked.
"I'm fine. I killed them all over again, and the enemy was all in chaos." Li Yixie explained excitedly.
Qin Huaidao was a little confused. He actually came to the south gate. He was chasing the enemy. It seemed that the King of Goguryeo had probably fled towards the south. Unfortunately, he still didn't have enough troops. If there were enough, arrange a detachment to chase and kill him.
Can capture the opponent alive.
A fly in the ointment!
Suddenly, Qin Huaidao thought of Cheng Chumo. They were killing like crazy here. The shouts of killing could be heard far away. Cheng Chumo would definitely find out and might bring troops to block the King of Goguryeo. He cheered up and shouted: "Kill back and expand."
Please be careful about the outcome of the battle."
"Obey the order!" Li Yixie led his troops to fight back.
Qin Huaidao pursued Captain Chi Baolin and continued the pursuit. There were still too many enemies and he could not divide his troops. Otherwise, the good situation would change. He must take advantage of the chaos to pursue and kill to expand the results and seal the battle.
This battle lasted until dawn.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, the broken flags, and the war horses walking around, Qin Huaidao stopped, his heart was completely relieved, and he smiled in victory. Unfortunately, he ran away from the King of Goguryeo, which was not perfect.
"Hahaha, general!"
"General!"
The generals came over excitedly, with the joy of victory on their faces. There were definitely no less than 50,000 corpses in the wilderness, and there were only 13,000 people on their side. They defeated many with less, and their shocking power could last a lifetime.
As a military general, it is enough to have this once in your life.
When everyone saw Qin Huaidao's face was heavy and his brows were furrowed, they all stopped laughing and came forward one after another.
"General, what's wrong?" Yuchi Baolin asked.
"If the King of Goguryeo escapes, he will have at least 5,000 people around him, and probably around 10,000 at most. He is expected to head south. To the south is Anshi Prefecture. Once he enters the city, don't even think about catching him." Qin Huaidao reminded.
"General, shall I lead the men to chase you?" Yuchi Baolin asked.
"I'll go, there are more mercenaries." Luo Zhangye said.
"Don't fight, just listen to my order." Qin Huaidao's face became serious and he said with murderous intent: "Capturing the King of Goguryeo will bring more benefits than this great victory. Send my order to the general to quickly collect feather arrows, arrows and war horses, one person and two horses.
, leave the wounded behind, and after a cup of tea, the others will set out with me to hunt down the King of Goguryeo."
"Obey the order!" Everyone accepted the order and hurried away.
Qin Huaidao said to the Yulin guards beside him: "Go and ask Duke An Guo to come over immediately."
"Follow the order." The other party quickly rode over.
Qin Huaidao turned over and dismounted, helped the injured to treat them, reminded them how to bandage them, and immediately started to reset the joints if they encountered a dislocated joint. His movements were extremely skillful.
Joint dislocation was a trivial matter in later generations, but it was a big deal in this era. The wounded soldiers with dislocation thought that their legs were useless in this life. Unexpectedly, Qin Huaidao took them back again and again, and everyone was moved.
Not long after, Zhi lost his mind and shouted excitedly: "General, it's incredible, it's incredible!"
It was indeed unbelievable that 13,000 people attacked at night and killed at least 50,000 people. However, Qin Huaidao did not think that after the camp was bombed, at least half of the 50,000 people died from fighting each other. He signaled aside and whispered in a low voice: "Dong An Guo,
I entrust you with three things, which must be done as soon as possible."
"Please tell me, General." Zhi lost his thinking and became serious.
"First, I will lead people to hunt down the escaped King of Goguryeo. I will leave it to you to clean up the battlefield. It must be completed as soon as possible. There is a lot of food and supplies that our army needs and cannot be lost. Second, send people to Huaiyuan and let them go.
Governor Xue brought people, food, and materials to take over Liaodong City; thirdly, Governor Xue, together, you will immediately lead the army to escort grain, grass, arrows, arrows and other materials to Anshi Prefecture for support, is there any problem?" Qin Huaidao solemnly warned.
.
"No problem, I promise to complete the mission." When Zhi Shensi Li heard that Xue Wanshu would take over Liaodong City, he would be able to lead troops to the battlefield again and get rid of the heavy logistics. He was overjoyed and agreed.
"Please, take care!" Qin Huaidao cupped his fists and saluted, then got on his horse.
As far as he could see, corpses were everywhere on the ground. The soldiers were still collecting arrows and arrows for use. Countless captured war horses were gathered together. Qin Huaidao looked in the direction of Anshi Prefecture, wondering if Cheng Chumo could stop them.
We must not let the King of Goguryeo escape!
The next moment, Qin Huaidao shouted with a loud voice: "Send my general's order to gather troops!"
Several Yulin guards quickly dispersed and rushed out on horseback, conveying orders to the generals to gather troops.
Not long after, the officers and soldiers were assembled, with excitement on their faces. Victory boosted morale, boosted confidence, and made them fearless.
Qin Huaidao stepped forward and looked around.
The whole place fell silent for a moment, leaving only the crackling of flags.
A strong fighting spirit erupted, shaking the world.
Qin Huaidao took in everyone's expressions, smiled with satisfaction, and shouted: "Soldiers, we fought well last night, showing my style as a man of the Tang Dynasty, and also your honor, but the King of Goguryeo ran away last night,
Do you agree or not?"
"No!" Everyone roared angrily, and their fighting spirit was instantly ignited.
"Okay, what if you don't agree?"
"Fuck you!" Yuchi Baolin shouted.
"Fuck you!"
"Fuck you!"
"Fuck you!"
The soldiers cheered in unison, and their morale instantly reached its peak. At this moment, even if a hundred thousand troops came to kill them, they dared to rush forward and fight.
Zhihuan Sili watched this scene silently, sighing to himself that he made the soldiers scream with just a few words. No one in Zhihuan Sili's memory had such an ability. He was secretly grateful for the good relationship he had formed along the way.
Yuchi Baolin and others didn't think much about it. They just felt very happy and happy. Their eyes were wild and they wanted to fight.
Qin Huaidao saw that the army was ready and shouted: "Let's go, follow my general and catch up and do his mother's work."
"Hahaha, go fuck yourself." The soldiers laughed, their hearts fervent.
"drive!"
"drive!"
The army turned into a rolling torrent, which was unstoppable.
