Chapter 36
: Capture the General in Front of the Formation
The long summer night finally passed, and a trace of white fish belly was revealed in the horizon in the east. Although the sun had not yet come out, the whole morning was clear. The Goguryeo cavalry who were struck by heavy cavalry of the Sui army finally saw this cavalry like a messenger of hell. After so long, the army still maintained their triangular arrow formation and their rapid impact speed.
The earth was still shaking, and the horse's hooves were still flying. In front of the Sui army's charge formation, a high black battle flag fluttered in the wind in this bloody morning. The two words "Pojun" on the black military flag were extremely clear. As the flag fluttered, all the heavy cavalry maintained the formation intact, constantly breaking through, breaking through, and continuing to break through.
Chen Kefu was still at the front of the impact formation. He clearly saw the Goguryeo people gathering on the hillside not far away. He saw that the other party had begun to abandon their horses to form a phalanx of infantry spears. When he looked at the fallen Goguryeo cavalry who had just been hit by the armored cavalry, the panic and frustrated Goguryeo cavalry began to gather under the hillside like a stream, he couldn't help but look at Goguryeo's command with admiration.
Yizhi Wende came up with a way to crack the heavy cavalry. How could Chen Kefu not see that once these spear formations were assembled, then with the one thousand of them now, they could no longer strike this phalanx. If they rushed hard, they would only fall into this spear formation. In the end, they might be fighting to the last person and shed the last drop of blood.
A spear swept a cavalry in front of him and fell off his horse. Chen Kefu waved his spear and pointed at the Goguryeo people who were still gathering on the hillside, "Glory belongs to us. It breaks through the formation of the Goguryeo people, so that they cannot form a formation."
"Glory belongs to us!"
Once again, a shout like a mountain shout sounded, and all the heavy cavalry began to bow down, tightly clamp the war horses, take off the crossbow from behind, and shoot at the Goguryeo who was still running in front of him. In the high-speed impact, the scattered soldiers and gamblers blocked the impact. The soldiers in the military camp put away the crossbows, held the horse spears again, and charged towards the Goguryeo who were still in a hurry to form a formation.
On the battlefield, it is quite difficult to regroup tens of thousands of people, especially the troops that had just been defeated and dispersed. If an outstanding general led a group of elite soldiers, it could still be completed in a short time. However, Yizhi Wende was carrying a large army of tens of thousands of people who were completely impacted and lost their morale. Seeing the heavy cavalry of the Sui army getting closer and closer, the entire infantry formation was not yet arranged.
If it were just the ten thousand elite soldiers of Yizhi Wende, it would be better, but the other Goguryeo nobles who were attacked and fled around, as if they had found a safe haven and joined the hillside. Although the Goguryeo army gathered more and more people, the formation became more and more chaotic. Yizhi Wende understood that before the Sui army rushed, they could not set the formation.
"Who dares to lead a team of warriors to block the Sui army and win us the time to set up the formation?" Yizhi Wende told the generals gathered around him. Every general present knew that someone had to stop the Sui army at this time and win time for them to set up the formation. However, most of these people were nobles. They had already been attacked by the Sui army and had no soul. At this time, their faces were still pale. They had no courage to take the initiative to fight again.
Yizhi Wende glanced at the generals with some disappointment. When those people saw Yiwenzhi De's gaze, they all lowered their heads, but none of them dared to look at him.
In the end, everyone had no choice but to turn their eyes to another person, that is, the big model Dajin Dalai standing next to Yiwenzhide. This person was the most brave man in Goguryeo and the most brave soldier under Yiwenzhide's legitimate subordinates. He was known as the tiger general. When he was young, he was a prey. Once, he encountered a tiger hunting in the mountains. In the end, he shot the tiger dead with his bare hands. He became a famous warrior in Goguryeo for a while. Finally, he was admitted to the army by Yijieman and fought for many years, but he had not received any defeat.
Jin Dalai's face was a little pale like everyone at this time. Although he had once been a fierce tiger, in just a short time, he felt that the Sui cavalry was a hundred times more fierce than the tigers he had killed back then. He really had no confidence to let him face such a group of people. However, when everyone's eyes were looking at him, especially when Yizhi Wende looked at him with a look of expectation, he stepped out with a tragic mood, "Master, the last general is willing to lead his subordinates to fight the Sui army."
Hearing this, all the Goguryeo generals breathed a sigh of relief, and finally they didn't have to attack the damn terrible Sui people head-on. Yizhi Wende also laughed several times with relief, "Sure enough, I am worthy of being my No. 1 warrior of Goguryeo, General Jin. I ordered you to speed up 5,000 cavalry but fight against the Sui army. But remember one thing, your task is to delay the formation of the army for a little time, so there is no need to fight head-on with the other party. As long as we have a good step in the formation, I want to let all of them be buried here."
Jin Dalai, who was riding on the horse, felt a feeling of a whistle and cold Yishui, and the heroes never returned. Forget it, just treat it as a reward for the great general's kindness to his understanding. Jin Dalai held a mace and shook his head, "My sons, the great generals have promised that each of the men who fought this time will reward 100 cattle and sheep, ten slaves, and ten thousand yuan. If a Sui cavalry head is cut off, he will reward 100 cattle and sheep and ten slaves. Children, wealth and honor are here, and I will kill them with me!"
There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Jin Dalai's move is indeed very useful. The Goguryeo cavalry who were afraid of going forward heard that there was such a generous reward, and they all became desperate. As long as they did not die this time, no matter whether they were killed or not, the reward would be enough for them to live their rest of their lives safely.
"Kill!" Under the leadership of Jin Dalai, five thousand Goguryeo people rushed towards Chen Kefu and the others again with fearlessness.
The heavy cavalry of the Pojun Camp was completely fearless against the oncoming Goguryeo people. Their target was the valley ahead. Only by charging, charging, and then charging until all the Goguryeo people who were blocking the front were able to break through, they could rush into the valley. Once they were entangled, the brothers of the Pojun Camp would die here.
The two teams of cavalry collided fiercely again, no longer prepared when they were raided before. This time, the Goguryeo people finally stopped panicing, but instead began to fight guerrillas. If they missed a single blow, they would often dodge first and then start attacking again. In order to deal with the heavy armor of the Sui army, these Goguryeo people also began to equip a lot of blunt weapons, such as maces and big axes.
The Pojun Camp still moved forward, but it began to keep knights falling on the Goguryeo maces and under the heavy axe with both hands. Chen Kefu looked at the guards around him who had fallen down several times, and sparks were almost popping up in his eyes. These were the bravest soldiers in the Pojun Camp. As long as he stayed by his side for a while, he could be sent down to serve as a lower-level officer, but now he died here one by one.
Chen Kefu ignored the Goguryeo cavalry who retreated to both sides with one blow, but stared at the Goguryeo army under the hillside ahead, where the formation was still gathered and the formation was still not completed.
Jindalai is worthy of being the number one warrior in Goguryeo. There are several soldiers in the Pojun camp who died under his huge mace, and their heads are basically smashed. No matter how thick the armor on his body is, it cannot withstand the huge impact of the dozens of kilograms of wolf teeth sticks hitting the head. Jindalai even began to surround many Goguryeo warriors, gradually resisting the wave of the Pojun camp advance.
The wolf-toothed stick in Jindalai's hand had already dyed red at this time, and there was even some white brain on the nail head. At this time, he had no fear, only the kind of madness in the war. Waving the wolf-toothed stick in his hand, Jindalai shouted arrogantly in the Central Plains language that he had not been familiar with for half his life, "Come on, I am the No. 1 Warrior of Goguryeo, Jindalai, who dares to fight me?"
During the chaotic battle, Jindalai's arrogant voice was particularly loud, and even the Goguryeo cavalry who were originally a little afraid of heavy cavalry laughed arrogantly. The morale of the entire Goguryeo cavalry increased a lot.
Chen Kefu gritted his teeth and said nothing, but his eyes had already stared at the arrogant guy. He gently touched Qingzhi, and Qingzhi accelerated again with great spirituality, exerted force from all four legs, and collided with a straight collision towards the Goguryeo cavalry blocking in front of him, knocking the Goguryeo cavalry in front of him, and knocking the Goguryeo cavalry in front of him, and then being trampled by the heavily falling horse hooves.
After the cavalry fell, Chen Kefu and Jin Dalai finally faced each other. Jin Dalai looked at another Sui cavalry rushing to his eyes and said disdainfully, "One more death comes, hahaha, let me send you back to the west." After saying that, he waved the huge mace and smashed it with one stick that day, and it was not as if the brain bursting as expected. He felt like a black shadow flashing beside him, but the Sui knight had already flashed by.
The two horses intersected, and Chen Kefuping held the horse spear. He wanted to use this huge impact force to penetrate the opponent directly. The two horses rushed past, and Jin Dalai missed a blow. He soon became alert and immediately saw the oncoming horse spear. He hurriedly lay down on his back and immediately gave this killing blow.
Just when he thought he had avoided this fierce attack, Qingzhi raised his head again and made a fierce impact on Jindalai's mount. Although Jindalai's mount was also a good war horse, it was completely unarmed. Facing the sudden attack, he was immediately hit by the huge impact force and stood unsteadily. With a tragic ripple, the horse turned over and raised the horse. Without waiting for Jindalai to pick and kick off the horse, the personal guards who had been guarding Chen Kefu had already been rushing up and stepped on the No. 1 brave man from Goguryeo into a meat paste. Chen Kefu hit by and didn't even look back at that guy. For Chen Kefu, his goal was the gathering place of Goguryeo.
If the army camp wants to enter the valley, they can only continuously attack the opponent's large army and cause the Goguryeo people to disperse. There are more than 70,000 people on the other side. Even if they are placed there for them to kill, they don't know that they will kill until the year of the monkey and horse month. They can only continue to attack, so that the Goguryeo people cannot gather until the morale of the other side is completely defeated, and then they can penetrate the other side and rush directly to the valley at the end.
The long summer night finally passed, and a trace of white fish belly was revealed in the horizon in the east. Although the sun had not yet come out, the whole morning was clear. The Goguryeo cavalry who were struck by heavy cavalry of the Sui army finally saw this cavalry like a messenger of hell.
