The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 461 Two Hundred Thousand Troops Crossing the River

What is supposed to come will eventually come. No matter how hard the Goguryeo army works, the river is still frozen, and Li Xiang has an army of 200,000 people stretching across dozens of miles of river. You can cover the dozens of miles of river. Pry it open? This is simply impossible.

Before dawn, the sound of tapping the river water on the opposite side was still there. Li Xiang had already ordered the armies on both sides to prepare to cross the river. The two armies totaled more than 400 people, and each team consisted of 200 people. They were all better at water. The people in front and behind are tied with ropes. If you encounter any problem, the people in front and behind can pull you up to prevent you from falling directly into the ice hole and drowning.

Everyone is still carrying chains on their bodies. After crossing the river, they have to find a way to fix the chains. Then it is time for our army to cross the river. The first few hundred people to pass, Their mission is to seize a position, holding the serial crossbows and the best steel knives in your hands. Even if there are ten times the number of enemies around you, you people must withstand it.

It can be seen from their size that these people are all strong. They were all selected by Li Xiang from 200,000 people. Some of them are from his own system army. These people are very powerful in combat. , they only need to withstand half a stick of incense, and the second batch of troops can pass by, followed by a steady stream of troops, starting from point to point, and fully blooming.

General Niu Jinda personally led a group of people over, and Su Dingfang was not to be outdone. Originally, Li Xiang would not let the two of them go over, but he also knew that the two of them were eager to make contributions, and there must be people in charge of the front line, so Li Xiang let them go. The two of them passed by. If Li Shimin had not issued an imperial edict to the military camp, Li Xiang would have been prepared to lead the commando there.

Although Li Shimin usually made trouble for Li Xiang, he still loved his grandson very much at critical moments. After all, he was the heir to his throne. Whether the Tang Dynasty could continue to be glorious in the future all depended on Li Xiang. If there was a If something goes wrong, should we count on Li Chengqian and his brothers? That would be equivalent to ruining the entire Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin knew this very well.

The two groups of people crossed the river in the dark, and their feet were already wrapped with cloth, so they were still a little less slippery. However, many people fell, but these people stood up slowly while holding on to the rope, and then continued to follow. Get on the big team.

They had trained many times by the river before, so they could handle any emergencies they encountered, not to mention that Niu Jinda and Su Dingfang also set out with the army.

Behind Li Xiang, hundreds of ballistas have been prepared. We are just waiting for the other side to send us a signal, so that we will know where to bombard. We cannot bombard casually now, in case it hits one of our own people. If so, it would really make the enemy happy.

"How are the artillery shells prepared? Once I receive a signal from the opposite side, I have to throw the most artillery shells at me in the shortest time. Maybe you still remember the essence of fighting on the grassland. We should fire the artillery when we can. Inside, a large number of shells must be fired."

Li Xiang calculated the time and our people will arrive at the river soon.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, we are all ready. In addition to us, there is another team of reserve troops in the rear. When our side becomes tired, someone will come to replace us immediately."

Long Qi is mainly responsible for managing this army, and Li Xiang doesn't feel comfortable leaving it to other people.

Li Xiang is still aware of Long Qi's ability to do things. As long as he says there is no problem, there will definitely be no problem later. This is also accumulated through long-term work.

"The Tang army has crossed the river..."

With a shout from the other side, the Tang army was finally discovered. Hundreds of people arrived on the opposite side of the river. It was impossible not to be discovered, but this man only shouted this, and then he was shot to death by a serial crossbow. .

The place where the Tang army crossed the river was not a place where the Goguryeo army was tightly defended, so even if this person exposed the traces of the Tang army, it would take a certain amount of time for other Goguryeo armies to come over, not to mention looking at it from Li Xiang's position. , many Goguryeo soldiers in the distance had no intention of fighting at all, and they actually ran south in a swarm.

In the military camp of Goguryeo, many troops fled from Jiangbei. They were not idle for a while in the military camp. To escape from the war, they had to have an organization, so they kept in touch with each other in private. At first there were only ordinary soldiers, but later even some junior officers came in.

These people know a trick. If you want to escape in a war, you must escape at the first moment the war starts. If you can't escape at this time, then you will have no chance to escape next time. Datang Army The progress is much faster than yours. Many of them have suffered losses in Jiangbei.

Su Dingfang and Niu Junda were already ready for battle. Niu Jinda asked his men to line up in two rows. They would release a series of poisons continuously. However, after waiting for half a stick of incense, the second batch of troops came from behind. , only a few dozen people were killed in front of them, and the scene in their imagination was not even there.

The situation on Su Dingfang's side was slightly worse. Hundreds of people surrounded them. However, after seeing the ability of the serial crossbows, the first wave of attacks by these people was defeated. The people behind saw Su Dingfang's people acting like this. It was so powerful that it simply stopped moving forward. Even though the shouting was very powerful, no one took a step forward.

"The Prime Minister ran away..."

"General Zuo escaped..."

The spies hidden in the Goguryeo military camp also came out. Changsun Wuji spent a lot of money to hide them. Normally, these people were no different from ordinary Goguryeo soldiers, and they did not provide information to the Tang army. The only thing is to be able to hide them.

Now it's time to use them again. The surrounding Goguryeo soldiers are already in chaos, but some are still resisting. But after hearing the news, those who were resisting were unwilling to resist, and many of them were already running south. , including some generals.

"There's a signal, fire right in front of us."

The observer observing the situation on the other side also discovered the signal from the other side. When our groups of artillery shells hit it, it is estimated that the Goguryeo army should be even more chaotic!

"The whole army crosses the river."

Taking advantage of the chaos, Li Xiang issued an order to cross the river...
