Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 830

In Pyongyang, to the southeast, there is the same big river named Nanjiang, which is the largest tributary of the Taedong River and has abundant water.

At the same time as the naval battle at Hailing Island, the cavalry of the Zhou army fought and retreated, slowly leading the Goryeo army to the Nanjiang River.

The Koryo army is claimed to be 30. Although this is a bit exaggerated, there are still 10,000+ civilian husbands.

This is basically one-tenth of the population of the entire peninsula. It can be seen that the intensity of this mobilization is almost overwhelming.

The march of 10,000+ people is also a very troublesome thing, and the scheduling and difficulty are very great.

Therefore, after Zhou Jun sent cavalry and Goryeo cavalry to fight dogfights for more than ten days, the Goryeo army walked no more than a hundred miles and slowly arrived at the village of Cibeiling in the northeast of Nanjiang.

"Your Majesty, I've got you so choked up, when will I be able to charge you hard!" As the last batch of prairie cavalry who returned, Qianhu Riluge, the first sentence he said when he saw Murong Nobunaga, was His most intuitive feeling.

These days, it is really suffocating, because the combat effectiveness of the Goryeo cavalry cannot be said to be low, it can only be said that Zhiluge has never seen such a low level.

King Murong didn't allow them to scare the enemy away with a fierce beating, so he had no choice but to deliberately not wear armor, and kept his hands to fight back and forth with the Goryeo cavalry.

This is not fighting, this is acting.

"Hahahaha!" Murong Nobunaga threw a small leather bag containing wine to Riluge, laughed a few times and said, "I know you guys are suffering from depression, let's settle down for a few days, and I guarantee you will have a chance to play."

After finishing speaking, Murong Xinchang took Riluge's hand, and approached the big military tent, where all the military officers above Du Yuhou had already gathered.

Murong Nobunaga asked Riluge to sit down not far from his head, and then said: "I got the exact letter, and Wang Zhao has indeed ordered the national army horses, and it is estimated that they will ride around [-] paces."

As soon as this remark came out, the generals below couldn't help being overjoyed.

Judging from the information obtained before, when the three kingdoms were fighting in this land of Haidong, the total amount of troops and horses dispatched was usually only about [-], but now they dispatched [-] at one time.

Wang Jing was more cautious than the others, and said in a low voice: "If the news is correct, counting the civilian husbands, the Koreans will get one out of ten. If you count it as a dime, it is at least one out of four dice, which is almost every household. There is only one person.

We haven't defeated Pyongyang yet, so Wang Zhao is not a fool, why would he be so desperate?
Doesn't he know that once the army is defeated, the small foundation of the Koryo Kingdom will collapse suddenly? "

This point is indeed very magical. Could it be that Wang Zhao thinks that he can destroy a powerful enemy with a snap of his fingers, and the more he thinks about it, the more unreasonable he feels?

A group of soldiers thought about it for a long time but didn't think it through, it was a bastard like Murong Yanchao who came directly, "My lord, prince, why are we thinking so much?
No matter what, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the Koryo country. Wouldn't it be enough to wipe them all off the Nanjiang River? "

Nobunaga Murong was right when he thought about it. In the face of absolute strength, any small trick is futile. No matter what scheme Wang Zhao has, what he needs to consider is to kill all his tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and then the problem will be solved. up.

Thinking of this, Murong Xinchang stretched out his hand and pointed at the military stronghold built by the Nanjiang River, "Your Majesty, I'm going to personally lead the army to attack Pyongyang City. Here in Nanjiang, you will stick to it."

Wang Jing hurriedly came out to respond. He knew Murong Nobunaga's strategy. Now that the Koreans have been attracted here, there is no need to keep Pyongyang City. He must first storm Pyongyang City to solve his worries. of.

At the same time, the army's military stronghold by the Nanjiang River happened to be stuck at the widest and shallowest part of the Nanjiang River suitable for crossing the river.

As soon as this side stormed Pyongyang at the beginning, the Koryo army would definitely storm the military camp immediately, in order to seize this place to cross the river and rescue Pyongyang city.

"Zhao Siwan!" Murong Xin shouted loudly, and Zhao Siwan, who was wearing a helmet and wearing armor, hurriedly knelt down on one knee to answer.

"You thief should know, if it wasn't for the captain-in-law's 20-year friendship with your brother, you should have gone to the [-]th hell to suffer from the frying."

It would be false to say that Zhao Siwan has no affection for Zhao Kuangzan, who has been inseparable for 20 years, especially after he made a big mistake, Zhao Kuangzan spared his life.

"The servant was able to survive so far because of the magnanimity of the captain-in-law. The king took him in regardless of the previous suspicions. The guilty person has nothing to say. He only wishes to die."

"Well, lead your elite thousand beggars and stay with the prince to guard Nanjiang. If Nanjiang falls, someone will kill you all."

Zhao Siwan chuckled, but the smile on his face was a bit piercing, "If the fort is really captured by the Koreans, the servants will kill all the servants before they die in battle, and the king will not bother to do it."

Murong Nobunaga nodded in satisfaction, and then called Mier beggar's Qianhu to come over, "I heard that Mier beggar's long archer is the only one in Mobei, so don't let me down."

Tuo Hei quickly prostrated himself on the ground, "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is above, Mierqi will definitely kill all the enemies of the king."

. . . .

In fact, Wang Zhao had no plans at all, because on the current peninsula, only the west side close to the Central Plains can support a large number of people, and the total length from north to south is only about a thousand miles. It is quite convenient to recruit. Not that scary.

And because the terrain is such a strange thing that is both narrow and short, once a war starts, you have to do your best, otherwise Pyongyang will be gone, and Kaijing will not be able to defend.

Unless Wang Zhao is willing to go to the mountains to be a monkey, or go to the island to be a water monkey, and the enemy will retreat before returning.

No!Given the current political structure of Wang's Koryo, Wang Zhaogan retreated to the mountains and islands that were all controlled by the wealthy clan, and there was a high probability that he would be murdered directly.

Therefore, it is better to bring all the soldiers available in the country with you.

If the fight is successful, then take advantage of the big victory and let the wealthy families pay people and money in Pyongyang City to immigrate to the border to further weaken their strength.

If you can't beat it, it will also consume all the private soldiers of the rich people here. Whether you go back to the mountains or go to the east bank to stand firm, at least you can guarantee that you will not be completely suppressed by the local rich people.

It's just that Wang Zhao didn't think about it, or didn't dare to think about it deeply, that is, what if the whole army is wiped out?
. . . .

The military village by the South River was actually very crudely built, except for the simple refusal of horses, the terrain was not even chosen to be closer to the hillside, and they just camped a few hundred steps away from the river.

Wang Jing's subordinates control the entire Anton Town of the Forbidden Army and a battalion in Pingdong Town, with a total of about 4000 people. Zhao Siwan's beggars have more than 1000 people, and the nine hundred Mier beggars in black and white are long archers.

There were not many people, that is, about 6000 people, and Wang Jing's formation was even more bold. The heavy armored infantry in Andong Town had only 500 people in a small square formation, with the front two and the rear three leaning against the army stronghold.

At the back of Andong Town's formation, Mier beggar archers lined up in two long horizontal rows, while Pingdong Town's thousand cavalry guarded them on the left and right.

The remaining [-] beggars, wearing half-body ring armor and holding various melee weapons, were like mad dogs waiting for their master's orders at the gate of the village.

After the Koryo army set up camp, Wang Zhao personally led the troops to take a look. His nose was so angry that his mother was too insulting!

I personally led an army of 30 here, and you lined up with 5000 people on the Great Plains. What did I bring with me? 30 pigs?

In the distance, thick smoke was ignited on the top of Pyongyang city, and the sound of killing seemed to be heard faintly, obviously calling for help.

Because Murong Nobunaga gave these Pyongyang defenders who underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army a little bit of strength, and directly let the infantry in Pingdong Town wear heavy armor to attack.

General Jiang Gongzhen of Goryeo rode to Wang Zhao's side. As a veteran general who had fought for more than [-] years, he felt something was wrong.

It was as if his side was being led by the nose by the enemy, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Your Majesty, let's quickly defeat the Beikou on the south river and cross the river for a decisive battle. No matter what, we must reach the outside of the city before Xijing and Pyongyang are captured."

Wang Zhao nodded, and just as he was about to order Jiang Gongzhen to oversee the army to attack, Yu Jing, the forward soldier and horse envoy, said loudly, "I would like to lead the [-] cavalry infantry from the headquarters, and I only need the assistance of [-] imperial archers from the imperial army."

The Yu family is the top wealthy family in Goryeo, and there are hundreds of people in the martial arts class under their command. Yu Jing is a general who is known as a soldier in the country. He is willing to go into battle, which is undoubtedly the most suitable. Wang Zhao called immediately. Two thousand archers of the forbidden army were given to Yu Jing.

Goryeo's Forbidden Army archer unit is considered to be an elite soldier established during Wang Jian's period. It is composed of good archers from various states and counties.

And Yu Jing's father, Yu Qianbi, the founding general of Goryeo, was known for his good archery, so most of the martial arts classes and trilogy controlled by the Yu family were also known for their good archery.

Yu Jing mixed his own archers with those of the Forbidden Army, and gathered a total of 7000 people. In the eyes of this second-generation general, the number of archers alone is a multiple of all the generals of the Beikou, and the sky is full of arrows. , and must not crash directly.

Liu Yibao held a short bow and walked forward side by side with the surrounding villagers, listening to the sound of drums.

Pingzhou, where their hometown is located, belongs to the territory of the Yu family. In Pingzhou, the Yu family is the sky above their bitter hahas.

So even in the busy farming season, when the Yu family gave an order, they could only throw the farm work to their elderly parents, take their own weapons, eat pancakes mixed with a lot of wild vegetables and even sand from the Yu family, and come here for a few days. Pyongyang, a hundred miles away, fought desperately with the northern invaders.

The reason why Liuyibao has such a wonderful name is because he was born in such a poor family that he didn't even have the cloth to make a baby clothes for him. It was his uncle who tore a big piece of his clothes and used this piece Cloth wrapped him up, and finally made him a garment with this cloth.

Thinking of his own name, Liu Yibao turned his attention to the kid in the front row who was still wiping tears. He was his uncle's son, his cousin.

As for why my cousin wiped her tears, Liu Yibao knew the reason very well. Uncle’s eyes couldn’t see clearly for some reason years ago. Forget farming.

Now that my cousin is gone, there is no one in the family. Although there are still neighbors who can help, but all the men in the village have been confiscated and only the old and the weak are left. How much can they help?
Liu Yibao felt heavy in his heart, and he twitched his nose twice, wondering if the fields at home would be barren when he returned after beating the Beikou, and if his uncle would be gone.

While thinking wildly, there was a sudden sound of drums, and one after another of military orders came from the front, and everyone panicked at once, because they hummed familiar sounds, it was the sound of drums for war.

Yu Dongge was wearing a pair of fine armor and walked in the front with a strong bow made of beef tendon.

He is a distant branch of Yu's family in Pingzhou, and he was qualified as a martial arts class. He was elected as a small official of the Pingzhou Kushou team. He collected it on behalf of the Yu family.

Even though he is a small official, he has a lot of power in his hands, especially the item of rent collection, which gives Yu Dongge the power to do his best.

Anyway, what the Yu family wants is the total amount. As for who pays more and who pays less, that is up to him.

In the village, this is no different from having the power of life and death. If you want to pay less rent, if a hunter hunts a wild animal, the fattest meat should be honored to him;

It's even common for someone's young lady or daughter-in-law to come over to serve for a few nights.

With such a great benefit, Yu Dongge is extremely loyal to the person who gave him power. Putting on this hanging armor and a strong bow, he vowed in his heart that he must kill all the Beikou who disturbed his good life.

There was a bang of the gong, and the captain on the left cursed loudly, telling everyone to speed up.

This is because some people began to slow down their pace before they reached the shooting distance, causing a group of people to walk more than 20 steps, but in fact they only walked the usual distance of ten steps.

"How can you be so afraid of death? Have you forgotten who gave you white rice?"

Yu Dongge was furious, and following the scolding of the captain, he also roared, and increased his stride distance, and he went up a lot at once.

Some people around thought that what Yu Dongge said was right, how could he be greedy for life and afraid of death when he was fighting the northern bandits?So they followed in Yu Dongge's footsteps.

But after all, everyone has their own ideas, some follow the big strides, some are pretending, take two big strides, take advantage of people not paying attention and then change to small steps, some people still take small steps in silence.

Wang Jinghaha smiled at his son Wang Tingyi beside him, because with Yu Dongge's big stride, the Koryo army formation, which was originally considered complete, immediately began to crooked.

"Let those Mier beggars fight, and give these Koreans some appetizers first."

Tuohida received the military order, and he was the first to step forward. He took a step and beat the drum, and the rest of Mier beggars took a step, looking very strict.

And the longbows in their hands are also different from the hard bows of the Han Dynasty. The bows are longer and the arrows are long and heavy.

"Warriors of Mierqi, the time has come to bring back the glory from the battlefield." Tuohei knew that the only way to gain respect for the ethnic group and survive on a better territory was to fight desperately.

As he shouted, hundreds of Mierqi bows fired equally huge arrows.

"There are still more than 100 steps, what can you shoot!"

Yu Dongge smiled contemptuously, these Beikou are too stupid, don't they know that they have iron armor?At such a long distance, the arrows shot over did not pose much threat at all.

But right away, he felt something was wrong, and there was a scream in his ear, and an arrow at least three feet long fell from the sky, and directly stuck in the chest of the team who was still cursing just now.

Like him, Du Zheng was also wearing an 'excellent' armor, but even so, this arrow actually pierced directly through the armor on Du Zheng's chest. Half of the thick arrow shaft seemed to have just grown out of Du Zheng's chest. Same.

Du Zheng had been shot and fell to the ground. He opened his big mouth soaked in blood and yellow teeth, and screamed at Yu Dongge, the nail leaf on his chest was completely deformed.

This... This fell from the sky, is it arrows and spears or throwing spears?
Yu Dongge was almost taken aback by fright. He looked at the long arrow shafts on the team's chest, and suddenly felt chills for no reason.

Puff, there was another sound of an arrow piercing into the flesh, and a pair of big black feet covered with mud suddenly flew up in the line of sight of Yu Dongge's right eye.

The owner of the big black foot seemed to be hit by a mad cow, and was shot on the ground with his limbs in the sky.

"Counterattack! Run!" Someone yelled, and the Koryo archers who were stunned by a round of longbows seemed to wake up suddenly, and started to run forward.

But at this moment, with a bang, with Wang Tingyi raising his hand, the Forbidden Army of Andong Town, which was originally in a square formation, suddenly unfolded into a three-row horizontal formation. The soldiers held painted wooden single crossbows .

The sound of machine guns sounded like a swarm of bees coming out of the nest, and the flying crossbow arrows streaked across the air with a dark silver light, and then rushed towards the Korean archers.

Yu Dongge ran in the front. He just raised his hand to shoot the arrow with a hard bow, but suddenly felt that his hand was a little weak. This is strange. It is no problem to draw the bow ten times on weekdays?

Yu Dongge felt that the posture might be wrong, so he took another deep breath, but with this inhalation, a strong fishy smell quickly spread to his nasal cavity, it didn't come from outside, it seemed to come from his mouth .

Frightened, Yu Dongge lowered his head, only to realize that a crossbow arrow with a short shaft but high lethality had been inserted into his chest at some point.

The armor he was proud of on weekdays did not play any protective role at all, and was directly pierced.

Click!Yu Dongge's hard bow, which he regarded as a treasure, also fell to the ground. His strong hands could no longer hold the bow anymore, and the crying and roaring around him seemed to become clear in an instant.

Yu Dongge desperately turned his head, wanting to take a look at Yu Jing, the patriarch of the Yu family, and tell him that he was killed in battle.

But at this moment, that huge long arrow fell from the sky again, with a puff, passed through Yu Dongge's neck, and nailed him to the ground.

Thousands of wooden single crossbows and thousands of longbows, one flat shot and one projectile, formed a perfect all-round attack surface, instantly crushing the thousand armored infantry Yu Jing had deployed in front.

And watching these martial arts squads and armored soldiers who usually show off their might and ran backwards, who among the conscripts like Liu Yibao cried and ran faster than them.

Yu Jing was furious. Although he could see that the crossbow arrows on the other side were sharp, he couldn't bear the fact that his team started to collapse after only one or two hundred people were injured.

The sharp sword light was shining in the formation, it was not Zhou Jun who was chasing and killing, but Yu Jing's personal guards were killing people. Anyone who retreated and charged the army formation was hacked to death by his own people without distinction.

Liu Yibao had quick eyes and quick hands, and just as he was about to hit the knife edge, he grabbed a bow that was passing by and pretended to retreat to both sides.

And the man whose bow was snatched by him was pushed forward by the flow of people, his hand was still pointing to Liu Yibao to say something, and then his head flew into the air.

Yu Jing personally rode his horse to the front row, and threw dozens of heads that had just retreated and been beheaded in front of the soldiers, "This time the two wings are the main attack, if there are retreaters, kill the whole family!"

Most of these people belonged to the Yu family. Yu Jing said that killing their whole family would definitely kill their whole family. Under this threat, the situation immediately stabilized.

Yu Jing's plan is very simple, if you have few people but many crossbow arrows, then he will attack with a crane wing array emphasizing the two wings.

This formation is more like a crab with two large pincers, with a meat shield holding a rattan shield in the middle, and the real ultimate move is the elite soldiers who turn around from the two wings.

Doing this can confuse the enemy and attract the bow and crossbow to the middle of the human shield. Even if it is not attracted, the lethality will drop a lot because the crossbow and arrow are fired in an array and shot at the two wings of the crane wing array.

The quality of the armor of the Koreans is much worse, but it also means that they carry less weight, so Yu Jing's crane wing array unfolded very quickly.

Countless Koryo sticks who ate a honey plum rice ball wore straw sandals. Amidst the howling sounds one after another, they showed the true specialty of their nation-the feet are almost flying.

Wang Jing sneered, and immediately ordered the cavalry on both wings to attack. To deal with the Crane Wing Formation, which relied on the two wings to turn around, but could not form a phalanx, the cavalry was the best to use.

Yu Jing also touched the beard under his chin in the distance, and then waved the command flag. He had two thousand horse troops, and the opposite side had a maximum of five hundred. He was waiting for the opposite horse army to dispatch, and he happened to counterattack.

It seems that Wang Jingqi is missing, but in fact, if Wang Jing only has these two brushes, he is not worthy to be the leader of the generals in the Liaoyang County Wang Bafu, and he is not worthy of the British Princess Li's personal recruitment.

"Change the formation, let Mier beg someone to attack!" Wang Jing had already thought up a countermeasure, and the outermost five hundred Anton Town crossbowmen quickly changed into a figure-eight formation to protect the central army.

At the same time, Jiu Bai Mier beggars put down their longbows, suddenly got on their horses and held their bows, and became a cavalry soldier.

This change caught Yu Jing off guard. If he didn't care, his two wings would be scattered by nearly a thousand cavalry.

So he had no choice but to let the remaining three hundred core pieces of the Yu family around him also get on the horse, and go to intercept them quickly, so that Beikou could not let his crane wings break down.

It's just that there are only a few hundred infantry left around Yu Jing, and without the protection of the cavalry, the infantry may not be able to protect him in time when the critical moment comes.

The Goryeo Chinese Army, Liu Yibao, etc. were organized again, and this time they had a large number of people and were protected by rattan shields. It seemed that there were not many crossbows and longbows coming from the opposite side, which immediately boosted their already low morale. .

However, the advantage of the Zhou army's crossbow arrows was offset. After all, the Koryo army was four times larger than Wang Jing's army, and the large number of spears stabbed each other was still very advantageous.

Wang Jing was at the highest point, staring at the hourglass with one eye, watching the Koreans besiege on three sides.

After fighting for a full quarter of an hour, hundreds of Koreans were killed and injured, and the front row could no longer fight. When he was about to change to the back row, Wang Jing yelled:
"Zhao Siwan, it's up to you guys to crush these Koreans!"

Zhao Siwan had been hiding in the gate of the village for a long time, and when he heard Wang Jing's call, he jumped out immediately, followed by his army of cannibals who ran and yelled.

The soldiers of Pingdong Town, who were confronting head-on, also immediately moved out of the way, letting them, the guilty mad dogs, crush the enemy.

Yu Jing already felt that he had the chance to win. The Beikou had few people, so they could be exhausted even by fighting with wheels.

But at this moment when he called Jin to signal the front row to retreat, and the back row was about to step forward, Zhao Siwan rushed to the front with Qi Huo Lang.

Under the leadership of Zhao Siwan, they collectively let out a piercing howl, and then threw the hatchets, hand spears, stone hammers and other throwing weapons in their hands to the opposite side.

Hatchets whizzed and whirled in the air, and the huge stone hammers and piercing spears were thrown by these fierce men, producing great destructive power, and a large number of Koreans fell in response.

And taking advantage of this small opening, Zhao Siwan and the others charged in like a pig, directly plunged in, and then began to slash and kill.

The Koreans don't even have many armors or short armors. How can they withstand the impact of Qi Huo Lang who wears cloth armor and trains soldiers according to Cai's way.

Even though Zhao Siwan and others only have 1000 people, they are all veterans of murder. Under their assault, more than 4000 people in the Korean Central Army were beaten back again and again, and they had no strength to fight back.

Yu Jing turned around anxiously, the two wings of the crane wing array could not move, and the Chinese army was repelled again, maybe it would collapse soon!

It's just that he didn't see it. Ever since the cavalry around him were sent out, Wang Jing had been following him.

"Thief slave! A certain family is here to take your life!" Wang Tingyi shouted.

It turned out that when Yu Jing was paying too much attention to observing the situation on the battlefield, he had already led Baiqi to bypass the sight of the Koreans, and inserted around Yu Jing from the side.

Yu Jing felt his whole body go numb, and his mood changed from anxiety to fear. The generals around him shouted for the unarmored pawns to come over and block them.

This is the reason why pawns cannot protect the commander alone. It is impossible for a person to wear armor for a long time. Without armor, the combat effectiveness will be reduced exponentially.

If it is cavalry, they will be on guard outside in a large area, and it is impossible for people to get close easily.

At the same time, some people can be separated immediately to intercept, and some of them will protect the coach and run to safety.

Without their delay, the infantry was fully armored and sufficient for protection.

The hundred cavalry under Wang Tingyi's command were red-eyed, this is the one who took the head of the enemy general among the ten thousand armies!
Who wouldn't want such credit and prestige? With the support of the adrenaline soaring, each of them shot a large number of arrows as if they were tireless, and the unarmored Korean infantry were shot down to the ground one after another.

Wang Tingyi and other hussars easily passed through the infantry formation that was on the verge of collapse.

At this time, Yu Jing was being pushed onto the horse's back by several generals. Before the horse could run, Wang Tingyi had already arrived. He held a long lance and had stored up his energy for a long time. Yu Jing's brains burst with a lance from behind!

Wang Zhao was furious in the distance. He had no idea that this battle would turn out like this. He attacked 6000 people with nearly [-] soldiers, and even the main general was killed in the end.

Wang Zhao, who didn't know much about military affairs, wanted to order Pu Yinggui and others to lead the cavalry to save the battle, but the veteran Jiang Gongzhen already knew how powerful it was.

He hurriedly let people protect Wang Zhao to retreat, and at the same time let the assembled infantry slowly step forward to meet him.

Sure enough, the hussars in Pingdong Town had already killed Yu Jing's cavalry and ambushed them around. As long as Wang Zhao dared to release the thousands of cavalry around him, they would not mind letting Wang Zhao taste Yu Jing's treatment. .

Seeing that Wang Zhao was retreated to a safe area under the guard of Jiang Gongzhen, Zhang Jianxiong, Marquis of Duyu roared, turned around and killed Yu Jing's men who were on the verge of collapse.

Over there, Jiang Gongzhen personally set up the big Yamen flag on a hillside, and ordered the Koryo soldiers to move forward slowly and shout loudly to respond.

This veteran is still very good. He knows that there are few Beikou people on the opposite side, so it is impossible to cause a lot of damage immediately.

　Alas, yesterday I was temporarily arrested and sent to other places to solve the problem, and I only wrote more than 2000 words when I came back to write at twelve o'clock. I'm really sorry, I will write more slowly over the weekend, and I promise not to babble later.
