Gao Zhixing used only one move to kill Jin Zhicong, who was known as Goguryeo's most powerful general.
To be honest, this is an ending that no one expected.
Almost all of these South Goguryeo troops regarded Jin Zhicong as the god of war.
When they saw Jin Zhicong being killed by Gao Zhixing, everyone looked in disbelief.
Even Eulji Mundeok, who was retreating under the protection of his generals, found it incredible when he saw this.
Jin Zhicong is definitely the most powerful general in the South Goguryeo Army. Even if you look at the entire Goguryeo army, almost no one can compete with him, but today he was defeated...
They really never thought that Jin Zhicong would be defeated.
After Gao Zhixing killed Jin Zhicong, he looked at the gun in his hand and said with disdain: "Is this the most powerful general of Goguryeo? Isn't it just that..."
After saying this, he directly urged his war horses to charge into the enemy's formation.
That scene was really cool and unrestrained.
The so-called dusting off clothes and hiding one's body and name when the matter is over is nothing more than that.
And just as Gao Zhixing rode his horse into the crowd, billowing smoke suddenly rose from the surrounding mountains.
It didn't take long before I saw soldiers from the Tang Dynasty all over the mountains and plains, killing them from all directions.
Among these people, a guy wearing a woman's corset was particularly eye-catching.
Not to mention her monster-like face, just her aura that resembles that of a goddess of war descending to earth, is enough to make anyone tremble.
She led a group of light cavalry into the battlefield with a brutal attitude.
I saw her wielding her sword to kill the enemies around her. Her attacks were extremely cruel and cruel, without any trace of the gentleness and virtuousness that a woman should have.
The rear army of the Goguryeo Army itself was thrown into chaos by the cavalry attack caused by Zhi Xili.
Now Li Tingxue led others to join in, causing the Goguryeo army, which had lost all fighting spirit, to completely collapse.
The front line was pressed step by step by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and finally retreated into the canyon.
At this time, the soldiers brought by Gao Zhixing in the canyon were charging out. >
The cavalry brought by Zhi Shisi Li and the infantry brought by Li Tingxue rushed in, sandwiching the Goguryeo army in the middle, and the front line shrank smaller and smaller.
Seeing this, Gao Zhixing did not hesitate and immediately rode his horse to break through the enemy's defense line.
After reuniting with his own sergeants, he ordered the entire army to break out from the rock wall on the east side and join their own camp.
As Gao Zhixing led his men to get out of the way, the Goguryeo army finally found a place to escape.
They swarmed into the valley, intent on avoiding the enemies behind them as if the god of death was coming.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were originally in the canyon also took this opportunity to get rid of the enemy's siege.
Not long after, the vanguard troops had even gathered with their own brothers, and turned around to encircle the Goguryeo troops who entered the valley.
At this time, the soldiers of Goguryeo had almost no ability to resist, and were completely forced into the valley by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
After organizing several breakouts, Eulji Munduk found that it was impossible to break through at all.
In desperation, he had to lead his troops back to the valley to rest and wait for the opportunity.
This battle also ended with the Tang Dynasty besieging the Goguryeo army in the canyon.
This battle was the war with the largest number of Goguryeo soldiers killed since the war between Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo.
Nothing else can be seen inside or outside the canyon.
Everywhere he looked there was nothing but corpses.
Even the mountains on both sides of the canyon have been washed dark red by blood...
After the truce, the Tang Dynasty sent some corpse collection teams of slave workers without weapons or armor to collect the bones of its own soldiers.
Looking at the corpses, none of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty spoke. They all stood there and stared at their former comrades...
Gao Zhixing could not help but look up to the sky and sigh: "The wind blows at the mouth of the valley, and the lonely soul
There are lives all over the world, I am waiting for the heroic spirit to go out with the army again..."
…
After a fierce battle, Goguryeo suffered heavy losses.
This was the most useless battle that Eulji Mundeok had fought in his life, and it was also the most wrong one.
The most wrong thing he did was to misjudge the situation.
If we had withdrawn earlier, I am afraid the current situation would not have been caused.
A general came to Ulji Mundeok.
"General, the strength of our army is still at its peak, and the physical fitness of the soldiers below has not yet reached the point of being depleted."
He swallowed his saliva and said: "If we don't organize a breakout now, and wait until Gao Zhixing builds defense fortifications, we won't be able to get out."
"That's too late."
Eulji Mundeok smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Our army can no longer get out."
"Not to mention that the Tang Dynasty has great morale and a large number of people, but our army's current low morale means that even without fighting, our army itself will be in chaos."
"Even if I command the soldiers to fight regardless of the cost of casualties, the final outcome will be just more casualties."
"Instead of doing this, it is better to let the soldiers below rest and wait for the opportunity."
"How long will it take..."
The general said with a sad face: "Now that our army is besieged here, I'm afraid the enemy will never give us a chance again."
"That will have to wait."
Eulji Wende said: "Okay, hurry up and see the injured brothers."
After hearing this, the general also knew that it would be useless even if he continued to say it.
Simply retreat and direct the uninjured soldiers to help those who were injured.
And then allocate some people to gather all available resources.
This ambush location was chosen by Gao Zhixing after searching for a long time.
gorge The cliffs on both sides of the valley are very steep and impossible to climb, and there is only one entrance and exit to the canyon, which is similar to the situation Li Chengqian faced at the beginning.
It's just that these Goguryeo guys are in a much worse situation than what Li Chengqian faced originally.
After all, Li Chengqian asked the soldiers to carry some dry food for a few days.
But in order to pursue Gao Zhixing, these guys completely abandoned their food and baggage and brought nothing in.
In the end, they had no choice but to gather the horses, slaughter them, and keep the horse meat for later use.
But there are nearly 30,000 people in the valley, and these 30,000 people obviously can't last long relying on these horse corpses, so they still have to prepare for a breakout.
But it is indeed a bit late for them to break out now.
After all, Gao Zhixing had already planned it. After almost driving them into it, he immediately started building fortifications.
The Tang Dynasty was very fast. It took only two or three hours to cut down many trees and build a simple fortification at the mouth of the canyon.
And as time went by, the fortifications became bigger and bigger, and in the end it almost became a city wall in the opposite direction.
Three days later, Goguryeo's soldiers began to find it difficult to hold on.
Not only was there no food, water sources were also starting to run out.
And this is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that they have too many wounded soldiers, and they can't find any medicinal materials to treat the wounded soldiers in the canyon.
As a result, the wounded had no medicine to treat their injuries, and their wounds began to become inflamed and suppurative.
People also began to have high fevers, so the army's water was used up faster.
However, the wounded soldiers did not receive proper treatment, which eventually led to minor injuries becoming serious injuries. The seriously injured soldiers simply closed their eyes and could never open them again.
The huge canyon was filled with the intermittent wails of the injured no matter day or night.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty outside were tortured by the sound and could not sleep, not to mention how miserable the Goguryeo people inside were...
