King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 221 Breaking the Army and Defeating Yuan Tan

Zhao Hu wiped out Yuan Tan's water army in the Yellow River, and Tian Yu was not idle. At this moment, Tian Yu led his 500 elite soldiers, of which [-] broke the army, and the main force was the east gate of Pingyuan City, and the other two teams consisted of [-] soldiers. Feintly attacking the north and south gates of Pingyuan City, encircling three gates and missing one, and the remaining west gate is to give Yuan Tan's soldiers hope so that they will not resist desperately.

The five thousand troops moved out slowly, and Feng Ji on the top of the city immediately saw that something was wrong, "Young master, this enemy army..."

"Hmph! No matter how powerful it is, it's only 5000 people. I don't believe that Li Lin can train 5000 people to kill! All soldiers, shoot arrows!" Yuan Tan gave an order, and arrows rained down from the top of Pingyuan City. .

"Hold up the shield!" The soldiers of the broken barracks immediately raised the shields in their hands, "Ha! The ladder is ready!" They have already adapted to the arrows of the non-stop shuttles around them, and they did not change their color under the rain of arrows. They calmly did what they were supposed to do.

"Give me that piece of wood!"

"Fire oil! It's time for me to pour it!"

"Quick! Bring down the ladder!" Yuan Tan kept ordering the soldiers under him, but he still couldn't stop the advance of the broken barracks.

The equipment of the broken barracks is very simple, but it is also different. They have hard helmets and thick shields. The outer layer of the shield is steel plate, and the inner layer is wooden blocks. Even the arrows of the crossbow are difficult to penetrate. But these helmets and shields have greatly affected their mobility, so the soldiers who broke the barracks did not have iron armor, but exquisite leather armor, which was very light. Only the chest had a heart guard. Arrows can penetrate their bodies, which is a test of their bodies in siege battles.

"Ha!" The movements were uniform, and they raised the round shields in their hands in unison, not only protecting themselves, but also guarding this companion.

"Go!" With a loud roar, the soldiers of the broken barracks climbed up the ladder, and climbed up the city wall bit by bit in an orderly manner.

"Young Master, Ci Jun is not easy to deal with!" Feng Ji shouted.

"Hmph! I don't believe it anymore, give it to someone!" Yuan Tan shouted.

"Ah!" The broken barracks had slowly climbed up to the top of the city, but immediately faced the spears of the enemy troops on the top of the city.

The soldiers of the Pojun camp made an astonishing scene. They didn't even dodge, and just stretched their heads over, only to see the spear hit the Pojun soldier's head at a very tricky angle, "Bang!" There was a crisp sound, and the spear It was bounced off!
"What!" The soldiers screamed strangely, their spears couldn't pierce the enemy's helmets at all!

"Kill!" Gradually, a lot of soldiers who broke the barracks killed and injured the head of the city, "Ha!" I saw them pull out a knife from their backs, no!That's also a sword, which Li Lin specially prepared for the soldiers who broke the barracks --- a three-pointed double-edged knife, which can be hacked and stabbed. After using Baotou Steel's technology, it is even stronger and sharper. Yuan Tan The soldiers' weapons are scum in front of them.

The three-pointed two-edged knife is not as good as the forest knife. The Liao knife is light and powerful, but it has an extremely powerful advantage in the siege battle. .

The broken army waiting at the top of the city did not blindly slash and kill the enemy, but gradually gathered together to form an army formation, and drove the enemy army, who was originally a comrade-in-arms, to the top of the city, "Aha!" Guo Huai took the lead, Ever since Li Lin recommended Guo Huai to Xu Liang, Guo Huai had never told anyone about his relationship with Li Lin, and even Xu Liang knew a thing or two until he attacked Goguryeo and Guo Huai lost his head.

Guo Huai led the Goguryeo people to migrate, but unexpectedly encountered Xianbei cavalry on the road, and Guo Huai was leading [-] cavalry, which was very dangerous. Guo Huai immediately ordered everyone to go to the nearby high ground to ambush, and move Goguryeo threw all the things he was carrying on the ground and rested beside the road.

Xianbei's three thousand soldiers killed them, and when they arrived, they saw things all over the ground. When Goguryeo moved, of course they brought valuables. The Xianbei soldiers immediately regarded these things as trophies, and jumped off their horses to snatch the property of the county on the ground. , Some even dropped their weapons to pick up the property on the ground, and the Xianbei army was in chaos. At the same time, Guo Huai led five hundred cavalry to kill them suddenly. The soldiers were caught off guard, beheading more than a thousand people in this battle, and Guo Huai immediately became famous in the first battle. Tian Yu immediately poached Guo Huai on the grounds that Li Lin needed the support of everyone's gifts to form a broken army camp.

"Pfft!" Guo Huai hacked a soldier to death with the protruding steel plate on the outside of the shield. This is also the benefit of this kind of shield. It can be used for defense or attack. This is what Li Lin saw when he saw the three hundred warriors of Sparta 1 It was imitated, but the Spartan's shield was too thin, so Li Lin added another layer of wood, which can also defend and insulate, but it is a bit heavy.

"Yuan Tan, go away!" Guo Huai saw a man in gorgeous armor, he must be the leader of the city, Yuan Tan, and immediately roared to frighten the enemy, leading the broken army to move towards Yuan Tan like a sharp sword.

Yuan Tan was shocked and backed away again and again. Feng Ji immediately grabbed Yuan Tan and shouted, "My lord, the enemies are all powerful elites. Our army is irresistible. My lord, hurry up and go with me!"

"So-and-so is not reconciled! So-and-so is not reconciled! So-and-so is not reconciled!" Yuan Tan never expected that Tian Yu, who was vulnerable a few days ago, would send out such a powerful army today, killing his own soldiers without fighting back Yuan Tan stared at his soldiers as he was pulled back by Feng Ji while watching his soldiers being engulfed in the broken army.

Tian Yu looked at the Po Jun who was confronting the enemy on the top of the city, bit the corner of his mouth and said, "Po Jun, you must take down the city! You are my pick out of tens of thousands of people!" This is The reason for Po Jun’s bravery is that the youngest member of their Zhizong was also a corps leader with a lot of actual combat experience. Li Lin has gone through many years of fighting, and Po Jun is a microcosm of how good the soldiers are. So not only Li Lin, but also Tian Yu , even Tai Shici, Yan Rou and others trust Pojun very much.

Pingyuan City was finally breached under the unstoppable attack of Po Jun. Yuan Tan escaped from the west gate with the remnants of the army and Feng Ji and other cronies. Tian Yu did not set up an ambush outside the west gate, not because Tian Yu didn't want to , or didn't expect it, because the troops were too limited, and I couldn't afford to send people to ambush outside the city.

Yuan Tan originally wanted to lead the remnants of the army to Gaotang, which is also the big city in Pingyuan County, and the Yellow River navy he trusted was used as a barrier. He didn't expect that when he arrived, he received a burst of arrows before the door was called out. The welcome of the rain saw a Liao flag erected, Zhao Hu poked his head out of the city, and said with a big smile, "Yuan Tan, I am Zhao Hu, General of the Liaozhou Navy! Now this Gaotang is ours. The soldiers in Liaozhou have fallen, and your father Yuan Benchu ​​was defeated by my lord, do you think you are capable of dealing with my lord? Hurry up and surrender!"

"Ah! Zhao Hu, why are you here? Where is my Yellow River navy?" Seeing Zhao Hu taking down Gaotang, Yuan Tan immediately realized that something was wrong. How could his Yellow River navy let Zhao Hu come over? .

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Hu burst into laughter, and the little Yuan Tan soldier's heart trembled, "Your Yellow River navy has been reduced to ashes on the Yellow River now!"

"Thief, how could you defeat my elite navy? Don't bully me!" Yuan Tan still didn't believe it. How could the navy who had reported success a few days ago be defeated all at once? Zhao Hu just arrived, so how can he have that strength? !
"Hmph! It's useless to talk too much, archer, let the arrow go!" Zhao Hu was willing to talk nonsense with him, so he ordered immediately.

Thousands of arrows were fired, and Yuan Tan's defeated army quickly retreated. Yuan Tan originally wanted to retreat towards Liaocheng with the remnants of the army. Tan Xiaoer, I have been waiting for you here for a long time!"

Yuan Tan's army was frightened and fled quickly to the front of the Yellow River. When they saw the Yellow River in front of them, Yuan Tan almost cried when he saw the predicament in front of him. Is God going to forget me? Father, I'm sorry for you! I lost Qingzhou!"

Yuan Tan almost fell off his horse in panic, Feng Ji hurriedly persuaded him, "My lord, don't be like this! Now the Lord's army is still in Jizhou, we can't be discouraged by the loss of Qingzhou, let's run away!"

"Ah! So-and-so has no face to see his father again!" Yuan Tan said in mourning.

"Boom, boom..." There was a sound of horseshoes, Yuan Tan's army was startled, thinking that the pursuers had arrived, Yuan Tan cried out in mourning, "God will kill me, God will forget our Yuan family!"

"Young master, look quickly, it's our flag, it's not a chasing soldier, it's not a chasing soldier, it's ours, it's ours!" Yuan Tan's soldiers saw from a distance that the cavalry was attacking Yuan's. Banner, he reacted and shouted.

The news spread to the entire army immediately, and Yuan Tan's defeated army raised his throat and his heart fell. A young general led the cavalry to Yuan Tan's army, quickly reined in the horse, and shouted, "There is a lot ahead! The defeated army in Pingyuan, where is the eldest son?"

Feng Ji immediately shouted, "The eldest son is here, the eldest son is here!"

The little general hurriedly jumped off the horse, and everyone moved away one after another to make a passage for the little general. The little general walked over, looked at Yuan Tan who was sitting on the ground with his head down, knelt down and said, "See you, Eldest Young Master!"

Yuan Tan waved his hands and said, "Hey... what kind of a prince! A certain is a defeated general who lost Qingzhou and failed his father's trust. So, I will meet my father with my face! I will see my father with my face!" Yuan Tan, who had bowed his head in silence, suddenly woke up. Feng Ji thought he had comforted Yuan Tan, and he was fine. Yuan Tan suddenly yelled like crazy. Feng Ji was so frightened that he quickly held Yuan Tan down... ……………
