Great Sui Dynasty

It was night, and there was a sudden heavy fog on the river, but it did not affect the river crossing, on the contrary, it provided cover for the river crossing.The ten warships had already docked quietly on the shore at this time, because besides Fengyi County and Jingzhao County bordered on Hedong County, although the navy had to pass through Jingzhao County on the Yellow River outside Hedong City, Jingzhao County There is still a difficult place in the county, and Yang Hao doesn't want to touch it for the time being, so the place to cross the river can only be placed in Feng Yi County.

"This time when we cross the river, we are likely to be surrounded by the enemy's heavy troops. We have no backup, but we must persist for two hours! In ancient times, more than [-] people from the overlord of Western Chu broke their boats and defeated Qin's hundreds of thousands of troops. We are going to fight with our backs, are you afraid?!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the [-] soldiers in front of him who were about to go to the battlefield of near death through the faint light of the fire, and asked in a heavy tone!

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!" Although the voice was not loud, everyone shouted firmly.

"Okay, get on the boat!" Cheng Yaojin waved his hand, and groups of soldiers walked towards the boat. At this moment, they still don't know how much danger is waiting for them ahead, even Cheng Yaojin doesn't know I know, but he's already prepared for the worst!

The ten ships sailed away from the east of the river, headed towards Feng Yi County, and slowly disappeared into the night. Although the Yellow River in this section is relatively wide, it is estimated that they will be able to cross to the other side in a short time.

"My lord, I found the enemy's warship!" At this moment, several lights in a military camp somewhere in Feng Yi County were flickering, and the main account of the Chinese army was brightly lit.

"Where is it? How many people are there?" Besides Li Jiancheng and Hejian Yuan King Li Xiaogong, who is called the prince, of course Li Jiancheng will not come to the front line in person as the commander-in-chief, so the only one who can sit here as the prince is Li Xiaogong.

"The enemy is about to land on the river near Chaoyi. There are about a dozen ships. They can't see clearly because of the fog. The number of enemy troops is estimated to be around tens of thousands!"

"Chaoyi?" Li Xiaogong immediately looked at the simple military map. The Chaoyi river section is gentle, and the tidal flats extend to Hanoi, which is conducive to landing, but this is also one of the places where Li Xiaogong's heavy troops are in charge.

"Order the troops to wait for the enemy to disembark and grab the beach before launching an attack. I will make them come and go! Order the reserve troops to be on standby at any time! Order the upstream and downstream troops to continue to be vigilant!" Li Xiaogong issued three orders in one breath, and he They were still very cautious, and did not transfer all the troops to that Chaoyi at once. After all, it was known from the news that the enemy had only tens of thousands of people crossing the river, but their intelligence was that the enemy had hundreds of thousands of troops crossing the river. On the other side, there are only tens of thousands of people here, so at least the enemy army still has tens of thousands of horses who don't know where they are going. Li Xiaogong had to prevent the enemy army from crossing the river from other places.

"Get ready to go ashore, occupy the tidal flats and make fortifications immediately after landing! Order the shield soldiers to be the first team, the pikemen to be the second team, and the archers to be the third team!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the river bank that was getting closer and closer, and immediately The people who ordered the navy contacted the soldiers on the ships and issued combat orders. The semaphore began to be used in the army after the Qin and Han Dynasties. Of course, it was the preferred method of commanding the navy at this time.

The closer to the shore, the shallower the water, but the Qingzhou warship is huge, so there is still a distance from the shore where the warship cannot approach, and the soldiers can only swim to the shore, but fortunately, this section of the river extends to Hanoi, so the water Neither deep nor urgent, this did not cause much hindrance to the soldiers in the north who were not very familiar with water.

"Occupy the river beach immediately, and the shieldmen will defend!" Cheng Yaojin got off the boat with the shieldmen, and he had to step forward to command in person.At this moment, countless torches suddenly lit up on the river bank, illuminating the nearby river surface brightly. With the sound of piercing through the sky, arrows rained down one after another. Of course, this did not cause much harm to the soldiers who landed After all, this team is all shield soldiers, and the damage of arrows is very limited.But even so, it caused some obstacles to landing, and the speed slowed down significantly.

"The bed crossbow and the catapult fight back!" Cheng Yaojin yelled at the battleship behind him. The bed crossbow and the catapult are necessary weapons for the navy, and they are just used to attack the defenders on the shore at this time.

With the power of the catapults and bed crossbows, the rain of arrows from the defenders on the shore was obviously a lot thinner, and there were many screams!Cheng Yaojin seized the opportunity to command the troops to quickly advance to the shore. When Cheng Yaojin led his men onto the beach, the enemy also rushed from the shore to the beach for hand-to-hand combat. At this time, the bed crossbow and catapult on the ship also lost their function. Otherwise, if one is not careful, he will hit one of his own people.

"Kill!" Cheng Yaojin waved his long spear and led the troops to charge forward, and the troops behind came down from the boat continuously. Since Cheng Yaojin's first wave of troops landed were all shield soldiers, and all of them were brave, so it was very difficult. Soon they gained the upper hand, and the enemy army was beaten and retreated steadily. After the pikemen came to support them, the enemy army retreated decisively and did not entangle with Cheng Yaojin's troops.

"Excavate the fortification immediately!" Cheng Yaojin saw that the enemy retreated temporarily, so he ordered the soldiers to build the fortification immediately. Because of the river bank, it was easier to dig. After a while, an artificial river with a width of several meters and a depth of half a person was laid across. In front of the two armies, the place where Cheng Yaojin was was like an isolated island!

"Interesting, this enemy did not take the opportunity to attack, but this does not mean that the enemy's follow-up troops must land from now on. Order the reserve troops to go up and take down this enemy for me!" Li Xiaogong thought after hearing the report from his subordinates. Cheng Yaojin's enemy is responding to the follow-up troops, but he is not sure, maybe it is a bait, he is not sure, it will not be known until the enemy's follow-up troops cross the river one after another, but they still have to be eliminated of.

"Shield soldiers line up along the river, spearmen make up for it, and archers suppress the enemy's attack!" Cheng Yaojin issued orders one after another, and the shield soldiers immediately lined up along the isolated river just dug to form a wall. , The pikemen poked their spears into the gap, like a barbed city wall, if the enemy only had infantry or cavalry, it would be completely impossible to break through.

After the enemy retreated, they regrouped and continued to attack, but after seeing the defense of Cheng Yaojin's troops, there was nothing they could do for a while. The attack stalled for a while, and the archers of the two armies shot at each other.Of course, this situation didn't last long. There were more and more enemies, and several logs were suddenly lifted out of them. It seemed that they had just been cut down, and they were used for the defense of the Cheng Yaojin troops.

The enemy has also learned to use shields to protect the soldiers carrying logs. The enemy soldiers are carrying logs and smashing them against the defensive shield wall. The seemingly unbreakable defense gradually showed signs of breaking down.

"Hold it! Archers, suppress the enemy for me!" Cheng Yaojin also realized that he had encountered a powerful character, otherwise the enemy would not have rushed forward under the dense rain of arrows, but he, Cheng Yaojin, was not It's easy to deal with, but you don't know who is afraid of whom if you fight hard?

With a sound of "Bang!", the defense was broken, and the enemy's follow-up troops immediately took out wooden boards and put them on the artificial river, and rushed over. The enemy didn't seem to be afraid, and they rushed forward one after another.

"Kill!" Cheng Yaojin yelled and rushed towards the enemy. This was just the second hand-to-hand combat. It was not the most difficult time. The bravery of the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty was far from comparable to that of the enemy. The offensive was quickly disintegrated, and Cheng Yaojin led his men to counterattack. After driving the enemy to the shore far away from the tidal flat, he ordered the troops to return to the defense, and built a shield wall again. It was more than an hour.

"Hmph! All rush up to me, I don't believe that I can't take down tens of thousands of people in this area!" Li Xiaogong was very angry when he heard the report.

After Li Xiaogong got angry, the enemy's offensive became more fierce. It was simply a way of exchanging lives for human lives, consuming Cheng Yaojin's troops bit by bit. No matter how brave Cheng Yaojin led the troops, it would be difficult to repel the enemy. It directly entered the white-hot state, and the weather in the autumn night was relatively cool. The Sui army swam across and landed. The whole body was soaked, and they kept fighting, which was a huge exhaustion of physical strength. It would definitely not work to continue entanglement, his troops needed time to rest.

"Archers draw their swords! Kill!" Cheng Yaojin ordered the archers who had never been in close combat to draw out their sabers and come forward to help. As for being too disadvantaged, with the support of this new force, the situation gradually became favorable to Cheng Yaojin's side, and finally repelled this wave of strong attacks from the enemy.

"The enemy is more difficult to deal with than we imagined, are you afraid? Do you regret watching your brothers fall one by one? Maybe we will never go back, do you regret? But I don't regret it, Because our compatriots are still lingering under the trampling of the enemy, even if I take my life, I have no regrets!" Cheng Yaojin looked at the soldiers who had just fought bloody battles in front of him, although he couldn't bear it in his heart, he still wanted to encourage them The fighting spirit, otherwise the hard-working people will not be able to support it.

"No regrets! For the sake of the people, kill, kill, kill!" At this moment, it seemed that all the soldiers rekindled their fighting spirit!

"It's all a bunch of trash, it seems that the king must go out in person! Order the upstream troops to come to support, I don't believe that this group of enemies can't be taken down!" The enemy's large army has no news, and the enemy's forward troops have been unable to be defeated for a long time. Elimination, Li Xiaogong had to be anxious, so he decided to go out in person.

"You outflank me from the left and right sides, attack me from behind, and the rest attack from the front!" With the participation of more troops, Li Xiaogong can outflank Cheng Yaojin's troops. This time, the tens of thousands of enemy troops must be captured wipe out.

"General, the enemy is coming!" Cheng Yaojin asked people to collect some materials and light a fire to wait for the enemy's next attack, but he did not expect the enemy to attack again so soon, it seems that the enemy did not intend to let them rest up.

"Follow me to meet the enemy!" Cheng Yaojin picked up the long spear and ran forward. With the enemy in front and no support in the rear, all they can fight is perseverance!In the face of the crazy attack of the enemy, Cheng Yaojin was gradually lost, and under the trampling of nearly 10 people, water began to emerge from the tidal flat exposed by the river retreat at night, mixed with mud, and the battlefield environment became more and more serious. bad.

"General! There are enemy troops behind!" Li Henglie rushed to Cheng Yaojin's side and said.

"What?!" Cheng Yaojin was very shocked when he heard that, he was outflanked, and the situation became more and more unfavorable. At this moment, an arrow feather rushed towards Cheng Yaojin!

"Be careful, general!" Li Henglie noticed the flying arrow feathers, but it was too late, Cheng Yaojin would never be able to avoid it, he took a step forward without thinking, and blocked the fatal arrow with his body!

"Heng Lie! You can't die!" Cheng Yaojin yelled while supporting Li Henglie, who was hit by an arrow in his chest. The surrounding soldiers also noticed the situation here and immediately killed him to make room for Cheng Yaojin.

"General! Heng Lie is a damned person. Thanks to the General's rescue, he is able to live until today. Now he can finally repay the General. It's just that there is still an old mother at home. I hope the General looks at the General..." Li Henglie closed his eyes before he finished speaking. .

"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of your mother and family. From this moment on, your family is my Cheng Yaojin's family! I will avenge you!" Cheng Yaojin said tremblingly, and then his eyes Turning red, "Protect General Li, archer, suppress the enemies behind me, and kill the rest to avenge our brothers!" There is a tendency for Wanjun to take the head of the general from it, and directly kill the enemy's banner!

"Oh, it's a pity that this person was not killed!" Li Xiaogong put down the bow and arrow in his hand. He saw that Cheng Yaojin was the enemy's general and he was extremely brave, so he thought of attacking and killing him. He didn't expect someone Help him block an arrow. "Shield soldiers go up and block this person!" Seeing Cheng Yaojin attacking all the way, Li Xiaogong immediately asked people to block him.

Seeing that the shield soldiers blocked him, Cheng Yaojin's way forward was blocked. He had no choice but to vent his anger to the surrounding enemy troops. After a while, a vacuum appeared around him. Where would he go, the enemy troops The soldiers fled in a hurry, but they couldn't move forward!

"Look, the reinforcements are here, the reinforcements are here!" The archers who were suppressing the enemy's retreat from the water suddenly saw a few huge black shadows slowly approaching on the river, and when they got closer and closer, they could clearly see It can be seen that there are battleships, which are the battleships that sent them over. At this time, the lights on the battleships are bright, and rows of soldiers can be seen on the ships. They know that the reinforcements have arrived!

This was actually arranged by Yang Hao. He told Cheng Yaojin that there was no reinforcements, but that was just to let Cheng Yaojin not have any hope, and to use the most ruthless efforts to defend.But Yang Hao knew that it was not easy to defend the tidal flat with Cheng Yaojin's troops, and it was even more difficult to attract all the enemy troops, so he sent another navy to transport [-] soldiers to support, and at the same time, he could create a false impression for the enemy troops, That's where they're going to land!

[-] reinforcements filed out from the battleships, and the enemy fled one after another knowing that the encirclement had no effect.

Seeing the reinforcements from the enemy army, Li Xiaogong's heart trembled. Could it be that the enemy is really going to land and break through here?If this is the case, it is obvious that the troops in front of us can't hold it. Do we need to transfer all the rest of the troops to defend?

"Order all the troops to rush to support!" After some ideological struggle, Li Xiaogong decided to take a gamble, but there are too many places to cross the river, and the enemy does not necessarily have to cross the river from this section, but he still sent a reconnaissance team to patrol along the river !
