Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 597 Iron Horse Chain (Ninth Update!)
"Your Majesty, it's not good. The Turkic people have sent their son-in-law Li Lang to ride around."

Li Jing, Mayi County's prime minister, saw the danger immediately after seeing his boss Wang Rengong taking his brother out, and the Turkic people circling insidiously behind him.

"Wang Rengong and the others shouldn't be afraid of Turkic Qingqi?" Yu Shiji said.

The 46-year-old Li Jing is imposing, burly and tall, and he is about the same age as the emperor.

As the magistrate of Mayi County, an official in charge of military affairs, Li Jing's ability to ride and shoot is naturally not bad.In fact, Li Jing is also good at strategy and training soldiers.He was also from the Guanlong general family, and his uncle was Han Qinhu, one of the four famous generals in the early Sui Dynasty.

Li Jing's grandfather, Li Chongyi, served as the governor of Yinzhou, and was granted the title of Duke of Yongkang County.

Influenced by his family since he was a child, he has long been talented in civil and military affairs, and is very self-motivated. He even told his father that a man should build up his career in order to get rich, why bother to be a scholar.

When he was very young, he was able to talk about military affairs with his uncle, and even let his uncle, who is a famous general, stroke his head and admire him as a soldier with whom he could discuss the art of Sun Wu and Wu Qi.

At the age of 16, Li Jing had already served as An Gongcao of Changxian County. Later, Zhichang in Lidian and Wailang, a member of the driving department, it can be said that his official career was very smooth, and when he was in Beijing, his talent was also famous among the ministers. Hong Ye once praised him for his talent as Wang Zuozhi.

And Yang Su once patted the couch and said to him, you will eventually achieve this position, and even when his maid, Hong Fu Nu, eloped with Li Jing, Yang Su didn't care, and instead gave her to Li Jing, making a good story .

However, Li Jing has never encountered the opportunity to lead the army to fight, so although he has a strategy in his heart, he has no chance to use it.Following a step-by-step approach, he was appointed as the prefect of the frontier in his 40s.

The first time he encountered a war, the result was that hundreds of thousands of Turkic people came overwhelmingly, and he was still with the emperor at that time, and he didn't even have the chance to lead troops to resist. As a result, Mayi City was already destroyed.

"Your Majesty, although armored cavalry can destroy the dead, they only have the power of a single charge. If they are surrounded by Turkic wolf cavalry after the charge, the entire army may be wiped out. I request that you lead a light cavalry out of the city to take the prefect Wang back to the city!"

Pei Shiju reminded the emperor.

"It is very dangerous to go out of the city now. The Turkic people have long been prepared. If they send troops out again, they may be surrounded again."

The implication is that it is better to look at the good fortune of Wang Rengong and the others. It is best to break through and come back, and there is nothing to do if you don't come back. There is no need to send troops out, so as not to add fuel.

"Your Majesty, I only need a thousand light cavalry!" Li Jing asked again.

The emperor hesitated, looked at Li Jing, and asked for a long time, "Li Juncheng, can you do it?"

"I can."

"Well, I'll give you a thousand light horses."

The city gate opened again.

With a phoenix-winged helmet on his head, a lance in his hand and a steel whip on his back, Li Jing led a thousand light cavalry and rushed out of the city.

"rush!"

The wind howled overhead, and the horse neighed beside him.

Rulin's swords and guns shine.

Yu Chigong's armor and cloak had countless arrows stuck in it, his whole body was like a hedgehog, even his mount was hit by many arrows, but he was still charging.

Most of the arrows didn't hurt the horses or men, and some of them only hurt a little flesh and didn't penetrate deeply.

His horse lance had long been lost in the melee, and even the steel whip was smashed full of blood.

During the charge, he took off countless spears, but the spears were not as good as the horses, and they always broke every few times.

The bright red blood oozes out from the nail leaves again, but he doesn't realize it.

Through the narrow armor eye slit, his gaze was tightly locked on the Turkic man in front of him.

The madness of not fearing death made the Turkic people tremble with fear. Although the Turkic people were nomadic and fought on horseback, they were too weak compared with the elite soldiers of the Sui Dynasty who fought all the year round.

"I can hit ten, come on!"

Hit ten, this is the colloquial language of the heavy cavalry.

The attached wolf riders were closely attached to the back, constantly drawing their bows and shooting arrows. As the bodyguards of the Great Khan, these attached wolf riders were the best archers, and their archery skills were even more exquisite.

These arrows are also heavy arrows, and some people even soak the arrows in horse dung and wolf urine to make the arrows poisonous.They were like wolves, biting tightly behind the heavy cavalry, shooting arrows continuously, and from time to time, heavy cavalry's horses fell to the ground with arrows.

However, the heavy cavalry were left alone, and continued to charge forward, sweeping away the Turkic people who were carrying weapons to attack the city under the city wall.

Li Jing led Qingqi out like a whirlwind.

His gaze was directly fixed on those attached wolf riders.

He is at the forefront of the light cavalry array, taking the lead.

He tried his best to destroy the mount, and straightened his horse to kill the wolf rider directly behind.

The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

The Qingqi led by Li Jing did not use the technique of roaming, riding and shooting, but charged directly, directly into their buttocks, and stabbed their buttocks fiercely.

Horses and spears.

Iron armor and horizontal knife.

Under their sudden impact, the sturdy attached wolf cavalry continued to fall off their horses.

Wang Rengong led the heavy cavalry to charge all the way to the end and wiped out the city.

The war horse turned around slowly.

Wang Rengong regrouped.

"Can you charge again?"

"can!"

Liu Wuzhou roared loudly.

"Hahaha, you are worthy of being a warrior of my Han family."

Yu Chigong also came up, "Captain, we have lost a lot of brothers, and the horse can't go fast."

"Then take out the iron chain, five horses in a row, charge for a while, and go back to the city."

Earlier, when Wang Rengong and the others rushed to kill, the men and horses were bound up with iron chains, so that even if the knights died in battle, they would not fall off their horses.Now Wang Rengong sees that the horses are exhausted, so he uses this more ruthless move to chain five horses in a row.

The five horses are connected by iron chains and charge side by side, so that all enemies in front of the five horses will be knocked down and pulled away.

However, this tactic is also very dangerous. If one horse dies, if the lock is not unlocked in time, it may bring down other horses.

But at this time, Wang Rengong couldn't care less.

If you can't go back today, then kill a few more Turkic people!
Five horses in a row.

Some of the knights on the horses had already died, but they were still chained and carried by the horses.

There were two dead bodies among Yu Chigong's five riders. He glanced at these brothers who died in battle, and said, "I'll take you back to the city!", and locked up their horses.

"kill!"

The heavy cavalry charged again, this time not just connecting horses and horses, but a chain of five cavalry.

In the distance, Li Jing had already rushed over with a thousand Qingqi all the way.

He rode his horse and rushed to the front of the heavy cavalry, "I will open the way for you, follow me!"

Shibi Khan frantically mobilized his cavalry under the banner of the golden wolf, trying to surround and kill the two Sui troops who dared to come out of the city outside the city.

"kill!"

Qingqi turned around and opened the way for the heavy cavalry brothers.

The heavy cavalry at the back rode five horses in a row, charging all the way away.

The Turkic people standing in front of them were like an avalanche.

Arrows rained all over the sky, but the heavy cavalry still moved forward.

Finally, they rushed several miles again and returned to the city.

At this time, the city also sent thousands of infantry out of the city to form an array, to intercept the Turkic pursuit with shield walls, spear arrays, and crossbows, and to meet the Sui cavalry entering the city.

As soon as Wang Rengong entered the city, he unchained and fell under his horse.

Liu Wuzhou and Yu Chigong hurried forward to help him up, and found that the old boss was drenched in blood, seriously injured, and had already lost too much blood and passed out.

Li Jing was the last to enter the city. He jumped off his horse and asked immediately.

"How about Wang Shuai?"

"It's not dead yet, send it to the city and ask the doctor to treat it with you."
