Queen Seongdeok had three husbands at the same time, Kim Yongchun, Qinfan, and Eulji! Who would have thought that with a small attempt to persuade Queen Seongdeok to surrender, Queen Seongdeok would lose her main husband Kim Yongchun and her deputy husband Qinfan at the same time, and the other deputy husband was...
The person who presided over the affairs of the country did not come, otherwise, Niu Jinda's understatement would have completely turned Queen Seungdeok into a widow.
Don't think that only women can do such things as fighting for favor. Men are even more mindless when doing it. Such a dangerous place in front of the two armies has become a stage for the husbands of Queen Seungdeok's harem to compete for favor.
Paragraphs of eloquent words, paragraphs of righteous condemnation, and bursts of compassionate advice were not enough to move Niu Jinda's cold heart. The two beautiful teenagers turned into two amidst the wild sound of the Eight Niu Crossbows.
Heaps of broken and rotten meat. Niu Jinda was born in a scholarly family, but he did not have the opportunity to learn these profound things, which became the biggest regret in his life, so he could not see others showing off their knowledge in front of him.
The war started in an instant. Queen Seondeok, who had lost her husband, launched a fierce attack as soon as the eight cow crossbows sang. The cavalry, under such terrain conditions, would naturally dispatch the Silla people's pride.
The cavalry, when the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty conquered Goryeo, it was this cavalry that assisted the Tang Dynasty in attacking Goryeo. They successfully dragged Yeon Gaisuwen to Wonsan, allowing the Tang army to sweep across the entire Liaodong.
The leader of this cavalry was General Jin Yuxin, whom Niu Jinda knew. It was this guy who was the first to come forward to persuade him to surrender. For the sake of this guy's loyalty to the Tang Dynasty in his early years, Niu Jinda did not order him to be killed, but just killed him.
Seeing that there was no danger, the two husbands ran up to compete for favor with the prince who had made meritorious deeds.
Morale is always a thing that rises once, falls down after two, and exhausts after three. When morale falls, it is very difficult to build it up again. Kim Yu-shin is also a famous general of Silla after all. Knowing this truth, the only way to stimulate it at this time is with blood.
Only your own soldiers can squeeze out the last courage from them.
After cutting down a hesitant subordinate with one sword, Jin Yuxin's cavalry could finally charge forward. Two miles away, the war horses encountered a barbed wire fence just as they started running. This barbed wire fence was not high. As long as the war horses jumped, they could fly over it.
Most of the cavalry can get through, but of course, there are many people who can't get through. They are tightly entangled in the barbed wire and are lying on the ground struggling. "Why not pull the first barbed wire higher?" Niu Jinda turned around and asked the captain behind him.
"Reporting back to the commander, this is the first barbed wire fence. Its purpose is to prevent the cavalry from escaping, not to block their attack. Now that their horses have picked up speed, they can naturally get over it easily, but it will be difficult to go back.
, without the speed of the war horses, it will no longer be possible to jump over this barbed wire fence. Their best way to deal with it is to dismount and completely destroy the barbed wire fence, instead of running rampant like this. However, most cavalry will ignore this small detail.
The young captain bared his teeth and explained the purpose of this to his commander with a smile.
Countless cavalrymen crossed the barbed wire fence from all directions and attacked the Tang army formed in a circular formation, like waves crashing against the rocks in the sea.
"Trebuchet launch!" When the cavalry crossed the third layer of barbed wire, Niu Jinda gave the order to attack. Countless one-arm trebuchets immediately began to work. The leather ropes wrapped around the one-arms immediately began to operate, and the counterweight bluestone fell.
The long arm immediately carried the black jar around half a circle and then violently threw him out.
While the jar was still flying in the air, the sergeant had already pressed down the counterweight, reset his arm slightly, and another jar was thrown out again along the same angle.
When Niu Jinda originally wanted to ask whether the jar contained gunpowder or kerosene, he found that a jar had been smashed heavily in front of the first barbed wire. There was no movement, only some liquid splashed out, and countless jars fell to the ground, or
If it falls on anyone, it will break into pieces. Some brave Silla cavalry pride themselves on their superb martial arts, and even skillfully use flails to smash these jars falling from the sky. Although some people are killed by such jars, they are used to it.
In front of the people of Silla who were living and dying, such casualties were simply not enough to discuss.
"Get out of the way, this is kerosene, be careful of the enemy setting fire, go quickly!" Jin Yuxin raised his hand to smell the liquid that splashed on his body. He couldn't help being shocked, and hurriedly urged his subordinates to leave this land of death.
Except for Jin Yuxin, only the Tang people knew the purpose of this. When the Silla cavalry filled the open space between two or three barbed wire fences, a huge gunpowder bomb exploded with sparks in the crowd.
The explosion blast tore the nearby war horses and cavalry into pieces. The red and black flames burst into flames, and a wall of fire rose from the ground, cutting the Silla cavalry team into two pieces.
.
"Go back!" Jin Yuxin's soul trembled. It was not until this moment that he knew clearly what the Tang army was going to do. It was too late. Cavalry is good at charging but not good at turning around. A horse needs a large enough horse to start from the beginning to run completely.
Space, you can fall over there in a short while.
Dozens of war horses were covered in blazing flames, and the fire oil that had just stuck to their bodies had exerted its greatest effect at this time. The crazy war horses and dozens of crazy pyromen immediately smashed into the battle formation.
When their bodies were leaning against the barbed wire and could no longer move, the Silla cavalry finally remembered what was in these black jars.
When these jars fell from the sky again, they could only watch as it fell to the ground and shattered, and then turned the area where it landed into a new sea of fire.
Wailing, rushing back and forth, and the neighing of war horses echoed between the barbed wire fences. The large group of Silla people outside the flames could only watch their comrades struggling in the flames through the flames.
"Get out!" Jin Yuxin's voice had become shrill. He pushed away the guards surrounding him, drove a dozen war horses in person, and violently rushed back towards the road. The horses hit the barbed wire fence and were burned by the fire.
He went crazy and ignored the entanglement of the barbed wire. He uprooted the uprights of the barbed wire and continued to rush forward with a roar while his body was covered with barbed wire. Some of the horses' necks had been strangled by the barbed wire, and their heads were tilted to one side. Others were beaten by the barbed wire.
The war horses continued to drag them away. Some war horses' bellies were torn open by the spikes on the barbed wire. Their internal organs were dragged on the ground, stained with kerosene, and burned on the ground. After walking a few steps, they collapsed to the ground.
Seeing that the war horse had broken through the barbed wire fence, Jin Yuxin let out a long roar and led the remaining men to run forward like a flood along the road that the war horse had broken through. Behind him, there was the scream of crossbow arrows...
The gunpowder crossbow exploded in the fire, and the flames suddenly went out, and then exploded in an instant. Jin Yuxin saw with his own eyes that his guard captain was blown to pieces by the gunpowder on the crossbow, and there was also a flame burning on his left arm.
Ignoring all this, the only way to be safe is to run out of the range of the crossbow. Jin Yuxin didn't know how he ran out until he was supported by the Silla people outside and poured water on his arm.
Only then did he realize that he was safe, but there was a smell of burning meat coming from his left arm.
Looking back again, he saw that there were only more than a hundred people following him out, half of whom still had flames on their bodies. No matter how much water was poured on his body, he could not extinguish the hell fire on his body.
The Tang people's military formation was silent. They were just watching the fire burning. There were no screams between the barbed wires. Occasionally, one or two horses on fire fell to the ground after running for two steps.
There were tears in Queen Seondeok's eyes, and she kept hitting her riding whip on the saddle with hatred. She wanted to cry, but she held it back, and roared to Jin Yushin: "Don't you say cavalry in the plains?"
Is it invincible?"
Shang Da and others Pi Tan persuaded: "Your Majesty, this battle is not at a disadvantage not only because of the military commander, but because the Tang army's plan is too vicious. The Tang army has used those kerosene before, but we were negligent. We cannot blame the military commander for losing the first battle."
It’s nothing, we can still afford to lose fifty cavalry, and as long as we act carefully next, we will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory.”
Jin Yuxin's face was dark and he looked like an evil ghost. He slowly peeled off his armor and saw that the armor on his arm had been deeply burned into the muscles. He stretched his left hand twice and felt that it could still be used, so he ordered
The subordinate put the armor back on himself and said to Queen Seondeok in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty, we have no retreat. No matter how powerful the Tang people are, we must fight to the end, otherwise, the fate of Goryeo will be our fate.
Wei Chen then gathered his men and made a second charge. Wei Chen knew that Your Majesty was afraid. Wei Chen also felt boundless fear just now. But Your Majesty, we must not stop fighting. We must continue to attack at this time. We cannot do it because we care about the army.
Give up the attack if the pawn's life is spared, otherwise the battle situation in Pyongyang will reappear here."
Jin Yuxin bowed his head and bowed, then he used his right hand to pull the reins of the war horse and stepped onto the horse again. With his ragged left hand, he stretched out his long sword, touched it with the long sword of the Silla warrior who was about to attack again with him, and pulled it around.
He grabbed the horse's head and shouted loudly to the remaining cavalry: "This battle will last until the death. This battle will destroy the cauldron!"
After saying that, he took his war horse and without hesitation, he once again charged towards the battlefield where the fire had just extinguished. This time he planned to clear away those harmful barbed wires first. These inconspicuous little things ruined his five most elite soldiers.
Thousands of subordinates, he wanted to see if after he destroyed the Tang people's defense, they would still be as powerful as the legendary ones.
