Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 214 Strong Decisive Battle ([-])

Just like the last time Li Fei went to war, Lin Shiyue and eldest grandson Lanxin sent him off on the city wall.

For some unknown purpose, the Khitan girl Princess Yangu made friends with her eldest grandson Lanxin and Lin Shiyue successively. No one let her out of Liaoyang City anyway. Either go to Li Fei's house and chat with Li Fei and Lin Shiyue for a few discussions. Recently, I have become obsessed with practicing yoga with Lin Shiyue.

"Sister Yueyue, elder sister Changsun, although that guy is not a good person, but there is a saying in your Tang Dynasty called 'disaster for a thousand years', that guy will definitely come back. In our Khitan, you should be happy to send a man to the war, because I look forward to their return in a big victory." Princess Yangu comforted.

Lin Shiyue shook her head with a smile and said: "You girl, when you fall in love with a man, you will know that the happiness on the surface of you Khitan women is all fake."

No woman can be happy to send her husband off to war, after all, the battlefield has no eyes, and one mistake is life and death.

Princess Yangu seemed to understand something.

Not all of the [-] Andong troops were cavalry, but [-] were infantry Modaozhen. If they marched normally, it would be impossible to reach Gewuzhou City without a day and a night.

Li Fei once captured more than 5 horses from the Khitan King City. In order to hurry, Li Fei also pulled out those mares, lean horses, and underage horses that were not suitable for the battlefield, and let the Modao formation Soldiers ride.

In this way, every soldier has a horse to ride, and he should be able to reach the city of Gowat State before the early morning.

Fanyang Road, Youzhou City.

An Lushan hated Li Fei, wishing to eat Li Fei's flesh and blood raw, and Anton was close to Pingludao, plus he had the ambition to rebel, so he naturally developed his own eyeliner in Anton.

When Li Fei had to send someone to report to Chang'an City, An Lushan's eyeliner also sent the news to Youzhou City.

On the night when Li Fei led his army to set off, An Lushan also got the news overnight.

He was sleeping with two beautiful concubines in his arms, full of warmth and fragrance, when he was called suddenly, An Lushan was still extremely uncomfortable, but when he heard the news, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, God help me, I will not only seize the opportunity to take down Anton, but also crush Li Fei to death, and occupy his wife and daughter, so as to relieve my hatred!"

Overjoyed, An Lushan sent people to Chang'an City overnight to operate.

Although it is expected that in the face of the invasion of the [-] troops of the Bohai Kingdom, the court can only deploy the army under his command to support Anton, but if there are officials from the court to help speak, it can be confirmed with [-]% and at the same time, he can also take the opportunity to ask the court. You need food, salary, weapons and armor to further enhance your strength.

An Lushan suddenly thought of multiple benefits, and a pair of tiger eyes the size of copper bells shone brighter than ever.

Gewi State is the northeast barrier of Andong Dufu. Although it is a 'state', it is not a big city, with only about [-] households.According to the practice of Datang with tens of thousands of households as a prefecture, Gewi Prefecture should not be called a "state", but because it is located in the bitter cold place in the most northeastern part of the Tang Dynasty, it is not easy to have so many household registrations. The frontier of Xinjiang needs a state city, so Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty decreed to set up Gewucheng as the state city in the first year of Kaiyuan.

The city of Gewi Prefecture guards the main road between the two mountains. Only when the army of the Bohai Kingdom captures the city of Gewi Prefecture can they drive straight into Andong and occupy more cities.

In the evening, the army of the Bohai State made its last attack before dark.

"Kill!" Shangquan Yi, the 'Marshal' of the Bohai National Army, pointed his sword.

"Boom! Boom!" The boulders thrown by the catapults smashed some buildings on the city wall, and some unlucky soldiers were smashed into meatloaf. It was very miserable!

"Chong——" Thousands of soldiers from the Bohai Kingdom also rushed towards the city wall of Gewi State with ladders and siege vehicles.

Although it is a country established by ethnic minorities, because it is close to the Tang Dynasty, it is deeply influenced by the culture of the Central Plains, and its generals are also familiar with the Central Plains' military tactics, so its way of attacking the city is not much different from that of the Tang Dynasty.

There are only more than 4000 garrison soldiers guarding the city of Gewuzhou. They usually only maintain law and order, and their combat quality is not high. It is not easy to attack until the evening.

Now more than half of the garrison soldiers and temporarily recruited young men in Gowat State have been killed or injured. They don't know if they can survive this wave of attacks. When will it come, so morale is very low.

A guard soldier watched helplessly that his comrade who was with him just now was smashed into meat paste by the flying boulder, his face was pale with fright, his legs trembled, and he couldn't even hold the knife in his hand steadily.

Two Bohai State soldiers took the opportunity to board the city wall.

"Drive them down!" A mighty voice came, a burly man holding a knife, led ten guard soldiers to kill two soldiers from the Bohai Kingdom who charged up the wall, and blocked the gap.

This burly man is none other than Wei Yuankui, the governor of Gewa Prefecture.

Because of the complexity of Gewuzhou City, Han people, Bohai people, Mohe people, and other seven or eight ethnic minorities gather together, and the incidence of security cases is the highest in the entire Andong. Yuan Kui can be a city captain in such a place. Martial arts are not weak, and his prestige in the city of Gewi state even exceeds that of the state order. It is because of him that the city of Gewi state has survived until now.

In the end, Gewuzhou City still blocked the attack of the Bohai National Army and lasted until dark.

At Haishi, when Li Fei led his army into the city of Gewuzhou, he was horrified when he saw the tragic situation of the city. The catapults of the Bohai army not only attacked the city wall, but also many houses near the city wall were smashed into ruins by huge stones. , There was a strong smell of blood in the air.

"Wei Yuankui of Chengzhou of Gewu Prefecture pays homage to Master Jiedushi." After half a day of bloody battle, coupled with the constant guard against possible overnight attack by the Bohai National Army, Yuan Kui did not rest for a moment, his body was covered with blood, and his eyes were also covered with red silk.

"He's a warrior, good job!" Li Fei praised him. He was very pleased that Gewuzhou City was not breached before his arrival, and it saved a lot of trouble. .

"Thank you, Lord Jiedu, for your compliment." Yuan Kui looked at the army behind Li Fei, all riding horses, wearing fish-scale armor, and well-equipped. elite.

"The rest will be left to the envoy of this section. Pass down the order, the army will rest overnight, and leave the city for a decisive battle with the enemy tomorrow morning!" Li Fei passed the order with a serious face, and said that he would leave the city for a decisive battle tomorrow morning.
