The trick in the afternoon was very effective. When the Goguryeo people who besieged Bobi Village heard that a new Sui army of tens of thousands was coming from the direction of Wugu City, the soldiers and commanders were really nervous for a while. Just as everyone
Just as he was secretly regretting that he had not captured Bobei Stronghold in time, the scouts wandering around the periphery quickly reported back. The Sui army suddenly retreated about twenty miles away from Bobei Stronghold. Now it had already withdrawn through Wugu City and was moving quickly.
Turn to Liaoxi along the road they came from.
After hearing this letter, the general and his commanders breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately ordered the brothers to continue to hold on to the camp to prevent the Sui army from Bobi Village from taking the opportunity to break out. As for the attack, let's put it aside for the time being. There are many beds in Bobi Village.
It would be inappropriate to use a heavy weapon like a crossbow for the sake of thousands of people who are about to starve to death.
In fact, the size of the Bobi stronghold is very small, with no more than 4,000 defenders inside. If the Goguryeo people are determined to attack the stronghold, they can crush the defenders' defense within two hours. But since the Sa River
After a surprise attack on the Sui army and a brilliant victory, the Goguryeo people became accustomed to taking advantage and were no longer willing to deal with enemies with resistance. The Sui army was out of food, and this fact was known to the world. As long as they surrounded Bobi Village, they would not be able to use it.
People within ten days will starve to death. The quality of the armor, spears, and crossbows produced by the Sui Dynasty is a hundred times better than those produced by Goguryeo. By then, everyone can go in and pick whatever they want without encountering any resistance at all.
With this wishful thinking in mind, more than a dozen teams from different cities, all holding Goguryeo flags, surrounded Bobi Village. Some of them were regular troops from the Goguryeo court, and some came from the inner city, Cangyan Village and Gebu Village.
The strongholds in the village were powerful and well-armed, and some were simply Mohe tribesmen. Because they were greedy for the bounty offered by the Goguryeo people, they secretly came to Liaodong to fight against the autumn wind behind the back of the king. Anyway, in the eyes of the Sui soldiers, all the tribes in eastern Liaoning looked similar.
Everyone is not afraid that the matter will be exposed, which will lead Sui Dynasty to find Mohe to settle accounts.
More than a dozen soldiers and horses gathered together in one place, and it was inevitable that they were not cooperating well with each other. The flaw was Liu Hongji's opportunity to take action tonight.
In the middle of the night, Liu Hongji and Li Xu quietly approached the enemy with 300 brothers. In addition to their mounts, each soldier also held two more horses. Each horse had a wolf tied to its tail and back.
A large bundle of greasy dry firewood. In order to prevent the horses' hooves from making noise, Liu Hongji also wrapped the horses' hooves with grain bags. Although doing so resulted in a large amount of military rations having to be abandoned in the woods, the Eastern Expeditionary Army had been completely wiped out at this moment.
The food is no longer of use.
Yu Wenshu led more than thirty people and gathered the remaining more than 500 war horses and more than 1,000 stones of grain at a place about two miles north of the Goguryeo camp. In addition to guarding the grain, they were also responsible for creating momentum. Therefore,
A dozen bundles of dry firewood were planted in front of each person, and in addition to fire sticks, each person also held a horn.
Under the cover of darkness, Liu Hongji, Li Xu, and Samurai Xun, each with a brigade brother, quietly approached the Goguryeo camp wall from three different positions on the north side. When it was getting dark, Liu Hongji took off his clothes from the Goguryeo soldiers.
I observed the area with my clothes and found that the defense in this area was extremely weak. I don’t know whether it was due to carelessness or genuine ignorance. The enemy did not set up antlers. Moreover, their camp walls were also very crudely built. The outermost wooden fence was high
Less than five feet (Han ruler), a war horse can easily jump over it if it speeds up.
The team led by Li Xu took the lead in approaching the enemy camp. Halfway through, he put an arrow on the bowstring. At the gate of the enemy camp, several sentries of unknown nationality were chatting by the fire. One of them suddenly heard some strange noises.
, raised his head and looked around, and as soon as he turned his eyes to the correct position, an arrow was stuck under his throat.
"Uh!" "Uh!" The face of the Goguryeo sentinel turned purple in an instant. He moaned in pain and waved his arms desperately. Suddenly, fresh air rushed into his throat and into his lungs. Then, he
He fell down with a satisfied smile.
The first wave of soldiers to attack were archery masters specially selected by Li Xu. The targets were fixed at seventy paces, so that no one would miss. The effect of this round of attacks was surprisingly good, and the Goguryeo soldiers who met the enemy in a hurry did not wait.
After raising the alarm, Li Xu and his brothers shot him down next to the fire.
"Speed up!" Li Xu lowered his bow, drew his sword, and ordered in a low voice.
One hundred warriors who were determined to die immediately kicked the horse's belly hard. The injured horse raised its head and neighed, but its tongue was restrained by the owner with wooden sticks and leather ropes, and it could only make a low gasping sound. It was extremely depressed.
The war horse spread its anger on the ground, hitting the ground hard with its hooves. Within a few breaths, it covered a distance of seventy paces, and led another two hundred war horses with firewood tied behind them to jump over the Goguryeo camp wall.
"Set fire!" As soon as Heifeng's body hit the ground, Li Xu ordered loudly. Then, he drove Heifeng across the fire, lit the dry firewood on the other two horses, and then quickly released the reins in his hands. The flames started quickly.
Stretching from the horse's tail to the horse's butt, the war horse responsible for setting foot in the camp spread its four hooves and plunged into the depths of the company camp like a meteor.
"Set fire!" Liu Hongji, Wu Shiyi and others rushed into the camp and quickly lit the firewood.
Another four hundred war horses were on fire. Together with the previous two hundred war horses, more than six hundred meteors quickly moved through the Goguryeo camp. Following the meteors were three hundred sharp steel knives.
After finishing the fire horse, Li Xu, Liu Hongji, Samurai Xun and others immediately launched an attack. Before the enemy could make any reaction, they had already overturned the first camp tent.
"Light the fire!" Seeing the flames coming out of the enemy camp, Yu Wenshiji ordered loudly. Thirty soldiers made fire tips and quickly lit more than a thousand scattered piles of firewood. Then, they blew the horn of attack.
"Woo--Woo-Woo", in the middle of the night, the trumpet sound suddenly burst out and shook the earth. In the distance, it seemed that hundreds of thousands of troops were holding torches and rushing toward the Goguryeo company camp.
The entire Hutou Mountain was awakened by the continuous sound of horns.
Li Xu didn't want to give the enemy a chance to wake up. The black knife in his hand seemed to be thirsty for blood. Every time he swung it, it took away a life. There was a torch in his left hand, and every time he used his right hand to block it in front of him, Goguryeo was half asleep and half awake.
After arriving at the Buddhist Kingdom, the torch in his left hand immediately touched the enemy's tent. Forced by the fire, the Goguryeo people who were hiding in the tent and trying to pick up weapons to resist had to rush out naked. Before their eyes could adjust to the firelight outside,
Their bodies had been knocked to the ground by the cavalry behind Li Xu with their war horses.
Three huge fire dragons quickly extended to the center of the camp. With the fire dragon as the central axis, there were hundreds of fireballs rolling and spreading irregularly. They were war horses carrying firewood on their backs. They were destined to die in battle tonight, but they sacrificed their lives in exchange for
It gave countless people hope for survival.
The tongues of the war horses were restrained by their bits. No matter how frightened or painful they were, they could not neigh loudly. The warriors all had sticks in their mouths. No matter how nervous or excited they were, they could not roar. Killing,
They were just killing silently, pushing death forward silently. This kind of weird killing was more frightening than the continuous sound of horns in the distance. The Goguryeo people who had just woken up from their sleep collapsed quickly, and many people didn't even think about it.
He fled the camp naked and scattered in all directions.
But their enemies showed no mercy at all. As long as there was a living creature in front of them, they would immediately ride on their horses without hesitation. The movements of people in half-asleep are far less flexible than usual, and the Goguryeo people often did not have time to utter a exclamation.
He was trampled to the ground by the horse's hooves. Then, there was the front hooves of another war horse. The huge weight was beyond the ability of flesh and blood to bear. Within three horses, a living life could be ended. The interweaving of blood and fire created a tunnel.
On the road to hell, hell is on both sides of the road. Those Goguryeo soldiers, farmers, and herdsmen who were trampled to death but were trampled to death struggled and screamed, each sound becoming more desolate and more desperate.
The warrior Yun was so noisy by the screams of the Goguryeo people that he was not as "experienced" as Li Xu and Liu Hongji. Today was his first time leading troops in actual combat. Therefore, the threat of his fire dragon was greater than that of the other two.
The fire dragon was much smaller. This situation inadvertently led to a vicious cycle. Some Goguryeo soldiers who had just woken up from their sleep instinctively regarded the dark place near Samurai Tun as a safe zone and rushed to the area regardless of risk.
The warrior Xun regarded the slow advancement as a shame. He was born in Shanglu. If Li Xu had not felt sympathy for him, he would not have been able to climb to the position of the brigade leader for another three years. Usually everyone joked, and occasionally they would be sarcastic.
The anxious mentality of some nouveau riche to cling to wealthy families was unintentional, but in Samurai Yun's ears, he always felt that the other party was making fun of himself.
In the entire Bingzhou, the timber business is almost entirely controlled by the Wu family. If the Wu family is not considered a nouveau riche, all other small-time traders can be called beggars. Therefore, the warrior Yu has been holding his breath in his heart, looking for opportunities to prove his "humble family"
Children from a family background are no worse than those from officials' families. Children from "poor families" can also glorify the entire family with their actions.
Several naked Goguryeo men stood in front of the warrior Yu's horse with their swords. He did not hesitate and slashed at him with his sword. These people on the other side had obviously received formal training. Although they had no armor to protect themselves, they did not panic.
Not busy, one jumped diagonally to attract his attention, the other rolled low and tried to create a miracle before being stepped on by the horse's hoof. The other jumped directly from the side and pounced on Samurai Yu's saddle in mid-air.
The samurai Yu hurriedly withdrew his sword and chopped off the man who jumped down in mid-air. He then gently pulled the reins and used the front hooves of his war horse to step on the Goguryeo warrior who was trying to chop off the horse's legs. At this moment, he jumped diagonally to the man who jumped away.
He rushed back again and slashed directly at Samurai Yu's calf with his sword.
"Go to hell!" A voice suddenly burst out from the shadows. Qi Poning lowered the long tree and picked the Goguryeo who attacked the warrior Yun on the top of the tree.
The speed of the war horse was too fast, and Chang Yan carried the body of the Goguryeo man and rushed forward. The guy who was always lazy in training inadvertently replaced the samurai Xun and became the blade of the brigade. The pressure around him suddenly increased, but the Chang Yan in his hand was because of
With the weight of an extra person, it doesn't obey orders at all.
More than a dozen steel knives were slashing at Qi Po Ning at the same time. The naked Goguryeo seemed to be going crazy, not caring about the danger of being trampled to death by war horses.
"I, Lao Qi, are finished!" Qi Po Ning casually swept over two people with his long spear, and then closed his eyes. For a moment, he regretted a little, and then, a sense of peace filled his heart. (To be continued)
