In the early stage of the war, it is true to rely on fierceness and weapons and equipment.
But in the later stage, the competition is about willpower and numbers.
Comparing strength and equipment, the Tang Dynasty will definitely defeat the Japanese army.
In terms of willpower, both sides are evenly matched.
But in terms of numbers, the Japanese army had an absolute advantage.
Even the Tang Dynasty had such an epoch-making team as Qianziying.
Their number is still less than half that of the other party.
After defeating the Japanese front army, the Tang Dynasty obviously lacked rear strength.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Japanese army commander Qingzhai Minglu commanded the soldiers in an orderly manner.
Under the command of Qingzhai Mingluo, the Japanese soldiers gradually regained the initiative.
The central army transformed into the front army to fight against the Tang Dynasty, while the rear army transformed into the central army and surrounded it from the left and right.
Obviously, these guys want to annihilate all the Tang soldiers in front of them here.
And see the opponent's tactical arrangements.
Li Chengqian also laughed.
He said: "These people have really big appetites. They actually want to annihilate my entire team, Li Chengqian."
As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't care what the expression of Gao Zhixing next to him was, and he rode straight into the crowd.
Cheng Huailiang, who was behind, did not hesitate and rode up to follow.
The two men rushed straight into the enemy's formation one after another, causing a bloody storm in the crowd.
Li Chengqian waved the spear up and down in his hand, like a dragon exploring the sea.
When a gun is fired, it often means that the life of one or several Japanese soldiers has come to an end.
And Cheng Huailiang has always been by Li Chengqian's side, helping him keep an eye on the enemies behind him and those around him who had no time to take care of him.
At this moment, the master and servant fought side by side, killing the Japanese soldiers around them and turning them upside down.
It was at this time when the master and servant were so generous and glorious.
On the other side, Soga Ishikawa also received a report on the whereabouts of Qingzhai.
When I heard that the leading general of the Tang Dynasty was Li Chengqian.
He laughed three times excitedly.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Okay, that's really good." >
"There is a saying in the Central Plains that there is no place to be found without iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there."
"I tried to find you, Li Chengqian, but I couldn't find you, and now you delivered it to my door yourself."
So many generals under Soga Ishikawa died at the hands of Li Chengqian.
How could he not hate the other party?
What's more, if Li Chengqian can be killed, Datang's vigor will be frustrated to a great extent.
Our side may be able to take the opportunity to counterattack.
It would be great if we could capture it alive.
This guy is the eldest prince of the Tang Dynasty and the first heir to the throne of the Tang Dynasty.
If I can capture him and bring him back to my country, then not only the Soga family's status in Yamato will be raised to a higher level.
He, Soga Ishikawa, will gain a firm foothold in the court.
"Generals, obey the order!"
"After the order is passed, the whole army will mobilize. Even the cooks of the Huotou Army will support me and go to the front."
Soga Ishikawa waved his hand and said: "Today I have only one request: capture Li Chengqian alive!"
After his order.
All the Japanese soldiers and horses began to mobilize and rushed towards the battlefield ahead.
They had a good idea, that is, they would use all their troops to surround Li Chengqian and others and then eliminate them.
But how could Li Chengqian be so easy to eliminate?
If that were the case, it would be impossible for him to achieve the status he has today.
Indeed, Li Chengqian's performance when he led the army alone to engage the enemy was criticized.
But his grand strategy planning never failed.
In today's war, his purpose is also very clear.
He just wanted to use himself and these five thousand soldiers and horses as bait to lure Soga Ishikawa, the old bastard with rabbit legs, over.
And when Soga Ishikawa personally led his troops to the battle site, the war was in a fever pitch.
Although the Japanese army had completed the encirclement of the Tang Dynasty, the combat power of the Tang Dynasty was too overwhelming.
So that after they surrounded each other, they could not continue to expand their results.
Instead, they charged down several times and suffered heavy casualties.
Seeing this scene, Soga Ishikawa was also a little annoyed: "Call Qingzhai Mingluo for me."
I heard that the coach is looking for me.
Qingzhai’s reputation came quickly.
When Soga Ishikawa saw him, his first words were: "Useless trash, I gave you 10,000 troops, but you can't even eat 5,000, right?"
waste?
Are you a waste?
So what are you?
To be honest, I am very unconvinced by Qingzhai's reputation.
After all, these soldiers in front of me are different from ordinary soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
This is the ace division led by Li Chengqian, King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty.
In his opinion, it was already very difficult for him to lead ten thousand soldiers and horses to surround these soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
You know, Souga Ishikawa led 50,000 troops and was defeated by 10,000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Soga Ishikawa has obviously forgotten this matter.
After all, for him, that thing was a shame that he never wanted to remember.
At this moment, he just wanted to seize the time, defeat the troops in front of him, and capture Li Chengqian.
At least this must be done before enemy reinforcements arrive.
Otherwise, this battle will be meaningless.
Soga Ishikawa Nao said: "The command will be mine from now on, you can just go away and watch."
As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward, commanded the army that followed, and continued to plunge into the encirclement.
Seeing that the encirclement of the Japanese soldiers was getting thicker and thicker, the number of them was getting larger and larger.
Gao Zhixing looked straight at Li Chengqian beside him and said, "Your Highness, aren't you ready to break out now?"
"No."
"hold on."
plum Cheng Qian glanced at the south and said, "If you wait a little longer, we will break out."
"Your Highness, what are you waiting for?"
"Hongzi's reinforcements are at least fifty miles away from our army."
"As for the distance of fifty miles, even the light cavalry would take half a day to reach it, not to mention that they have to carry so much baggage?"
The situation at hand is critical, and even Gao Zhixing can't control it so much.
He said bluntly: "Now we are seeing more and more enemies. If we don't break out, we won't be able to get out."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian turned to look at Gao Zhixing and scolded: "I said wait, don't you understand?"
This was the first time Li Chengqian got angry with Gao Zhixing.
Gao Zhixing was stunned for a moment.
Then, he also blushed.
"I really don't know what you are insisting on."
"Is annihilating all the enemies in front of us more important than the lives of our brothers?"
Gao Zhixing roared at Li Chengqian: "Brothers are all people who bleed and die, not gods. There are so many enemies, how can you stop them?"
"I said I can stop it, I mean I can stop it."
Li Chengqian waved his spear and drew a circle in the sky.
Cheng Hualiang, who was commanding the Qianzi Battalion to resist the enemy at the front, saw this action.
He did not hesitate immediately and directed the Qianzi Battalion to move closer to the northern part of the encirclement.
As Li Chengqian drew a circle with his spear for the second time, Cheng Huailiang suddenly shouted: "Throw it to me!"
At this time, the soldiers of Qianzi Camp were seen taking off the remaining Skyfire Thunder from their waists and throwing it towards the enemy crowd.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After several explosions like muffled thunder, smoke and dust filled the scene.
Many Japanese soldiers who had no time to escape were blown away by the air wave generated by the explosion of sky fire thunder.
Under such circumstances, the Japanese army's encirclement also loosened.
Li Chengqian did not hesitate, brandished his spear and headed to the north, shouting: "Brothers, follow me to defeat the enemy and kill!"
