Li Waner stood next to Li Xu, jumping and screaming. Seeing her excited look, Liu Hongji really didn't understand whose daughter the hedgehog-like woman last night was. After just one night, she had lost all her unhappiness.
Forgot, wearing a stolen soldier's uniform, and joining millions of troops waving flags and cheering for the brave men crossing the river.
Li Xu, standing next to Li Shimin and his brother, looked solemn. Since the beginning of today's battle, his eyes had never left the other side of the river. This posture made Liu Hongji feel more guilty for his suspicion, and at the same time, he also felt vaguely
Now comes the difference in Li Xu. If you use one word to describe Li Xu's state at this moment, the only suitable word is calm, very calm. This is a kind of precocity that belies his age, and Liu Hongji sees it.
Here, I even had some doubts as to whether the current Li Xu and the boy I first met on the grassland were the same person.
At this moment, Li Xu saw more than just blood and fire. After experiencing the initial tension and excitement, his mind slowly calmed down. Yue Gong Yang Su's military record, the coppersmith master's explanation, and Xu Dayan's usual follow-up
The summarized military training outlines were blended together, and all the previous ambiguities suddenly became extremely clear compared to the battlefield on the east bank of the Liao River.
"A well-trained soldier advances and retreats in an orderly manner. One is equivalent to ten, melting soup and splashing snow..." Xu Dayan once summed up the reason why he kept training his soldiers when he was practicing martial arts in the Minbu. On the other side of the Liao River, the battle scene between the Fu soldiers and the Goguryeo army
It is a vivid portrayal of this sentence. The first wave of Sui soldiers who crossed the river were all soldiers who had undergone long-term training. Their combat cooperation with each other exceeded their opponents by more than one level. The number of Sui soldiers on the battlefield was far greater.
Less than their opponents, but they firmly controlled the initiative on the battlefield. Without the support of suitable strategies, the Goguryeo people were only qualified to be passively beaten under the aggressive offensive of the Sui army.
The two generals who crossed the river, Yu Wenshu and Wang Rengong, echoed each other, demonstrating the power of the Sui army in their own special ways. Li Xu discovered that the two generals had completely different fighting styles. Use the words in the Yue Gong War Records to describe
, Wang Rengong's use of troops focused on gaining momentum. Once across the river, the attacks of Zuo Wuwei's soldiers came one after another, like a boulder crushing an egg, without giving the opponent a chance to breathe and adjust tactics. General Yu Wenshu's use of troops focused on
Under his control, the various arms cooperated very well. From a distance, thousands of soldiers and horses looked like the same person, executing every move in an orderly manner.
With Wang Rengong's style of play, soldiers need to have the courage to fight and die without turning back. With Yu Wenshu's style of play, soldiers usually have to double their training. Only veterans who have practiced a lot cannot complete such skillful cooperation. Looking at the two generals
A thought suddenly came to Li Xu's heart: what would he do if he were in Wang Rengong or Yu Wenshu's position? This thought made his tongue dry and his heart felt as uncomfortable as a fire.
.But at the same time, a cold voice told him, "Save it, you are just a common man's son, with no support, and you will never be a general in this life!"
"One day, I will show off this majestic appearance with thousands of troops!" Someone whispered in Li Xu's ear, as if reading his mind. Li Xu turned his head in surprise and saw Li Shimin clenching his fists tightly.
His eyes were fixed on Wang Rengong's general's flag on the other side of the river.
Feeling that he was being watched, Li Shimin suddenly realized that he had lost his composure. He smiled and asked Li Xu: "Brother Zhongjian, Goguryeo can't hold it anymore, do you think so?"
"If they can't destroy the pontoon like last time, they will definitely be defeated!" Liu Hongji commented for Li Xu first. He was as obsessed with fighting with soldiers as Li Shimin. He glanced at the ears attracted by his words and explained in a low voice.
Said: "Look at the flags of the generals in Goguryeo. They have begun to become chaotic. This shows that the generals have lost confidence in victory. Although they are all moving forward, there is no response and cooperation between them. Once a partial failure occurs, the whole team will definitely be defeated.
Being passive can't save the situation!"
"It's useless if the bridge is destroyed. The soldiers crossing the river have already formed a large formation, at least ten thousand troops and horses!" Qin Ziying also came over to join in the fun. Since his wife disappeared, he has worked hard on martial arts and military tactics.
After seeing the fierce battle in front of me, I naturally had some independent opinions in my mind.
"Our soldiers of the Sui Dynasty have been trained for a long time, and they can fight one against five in the field. If ten thousand soldiers and horses cross the river, Goguryeo will need at least fifty thousand to deal with it. Unless they still have an ambush, they have been defeated!" Qin Ziying concluded in a low voice!
.I suddenly thought with surprise in my heart, since the government troops alone are enough to sweep away Liaodong, why did His Majesty the Emperor temporarily conscript so many people into the army? The Goguryeo people were not well trained, and although they were large in number, they could not gain the upper hand, so His Majesty the Emperor conscripted them hastily and forcefully.
The people who came here were not as well trained as the Goguryeo people. If they were driven to the battlefield, wouldn't they be a hindrance to the government soldiers?
Despite his courage, Qin Ziying did not dare to raise this issue in public. In fact, no one had time to listen to his comments. The situation on the battlefield on the east bank of the Liao River was changing rapidly, and in just a few words, there were
A new team has joined the battle group.
"Ambush!" Li Waner screamed in surprise. Everyone's breath stopped in fear. But everyone quickly gave her a look without distinction, in retaliation for the little girl's surprise.
It was indeed an ambush, but it was not from the Goguryeo people. The red battle flag and khaki armor clearly told both warring parties that a new force of the Sui Dynasty was outflanking them from the lower reaches. In an instant, the situation on the battlefield changed drastically. Three frontal troops
The Sui soldiers and horses crossing the river simultaneously started a new round of charge. The Sui soldiers who rounded back to the flanks leveled their spears and thrust them diagonally into the backs of the Goguryeo people.
It was the soldiers and horses of the Youyu Guards. Li Xu recognized the opponent's identity from the flag. Suddenly, he realized all the tactical arrangements of his side. That night four days ago, the Goryeo envoy came to "sell" the corpse. He and Liu
Although Hongji was not qualified to enter His Majesty's imperial chamber to discuss matters, he heard about the Emperor's decree to allow the Goguryeo people to cease fighting for one day and to order the reconstruction of the pontoon bridge.
It turns out that the so-called armistice and the so-called building of bridges were all just a pretense for him to paralyze the Goguryeo people. The real killer move was a hundred miles away. The officers and soldiers of the Sui Dynasty built a plank road openly and secretly crossed Chencang. Even if the forced crossing of the Liao River cannot be successful today, the army that secretly crossed the river will still be able to do so.
It can give the Goguryeo people an unexpected "surprise".
Under the double blow, the Goguryeo people were quickly defeated.
Completely defeated, the sudden appearance of the army completely destroyed their fighting spirit. Without waiting for the commander to give the order to retreat, all the generals, soldiers and warriors recruited with heavy sums of money fled. Even if the opponent was close at hand, they would rather be hacked to death from behind.
Don't want to go back and fight.
"Yes!" The commander-in-chief of the twenty-four armies and envoys from dozens of countries bowed at the same time.
"Hmph, whoever deceives me once, I will deceive him twice!" Looking at the Liaodong City in the distance, the sage Khan Yang Guang thought proudly. (To be continued)
