Chapter 302: Mole Warriors
The Goguryeo people on the top of the city looked at the dozens of people standing in a row, with only one shirt and a disheveled hair left. At this moment, they could not believe that they were the arrogant noble generals in the Liaodong city.
But the flags thrown under the city and the head of the Liaodong general confirmed their suspicion. Ten thousand reinforcements were really destroyed like this. Although they couldn't believe it, it was really true. The last trace of expectations of the people suddenly turned into a bubble.
Looking at the compatriots kneeling on the ground in front of the city gate, the Goguryeo people on the city shed tears, and many of them were beating their chests and crying loudly.
"Submit, but don't!"
Wang Mahan shouted under the city.
The Goguryeo soldiers looked at each other on the top of the city, but just as they were about to wait, the north of the city suddenly opened wide, and a series of cavalry rushed straight out of the north gate and left the city gate.
Looking at this scene, the Goguryeo people above the city were in great anger. Because it was the city lord who fled, he took his family and abandoned them and fled towards the Liaodong city.
"Submit, but don't!"
Wang Mahan held the horse and held the whip, and kept raising his arms and shouting from left to right under the city.
The surrounding county soldiers mobilized him, all of them raised spears, bows and crossbows, and stood up to cheer. The flags were piled up like mountains, and the enemy generals were given heads in front of him. Wang Mahan only felt that his life was happy than today.
Nearly ten thousand soldiers from all counties also shouted together, and shouts came into the city one after another.
Yuanxiao Kongshan came to Li Chongjiu together. Yuanxiao Yuanxiao saw Li Chongjiu's martial power today and was convinced. They didn't know what happened, but Li Chongjiu defeated Goguryeo's 10,000 troops without hesitation.
Both of them came to Li Chongjiu, and they all looked in admiration and asked, "How did the envoy defeat the reinforcements of Liaodong City?"
Li Chongjiu smiled. He immediately put his forehead on his back, Ying Hefu and his two were standing aside, their chests were three feet high, and they smiled without saying a word.
Li Chongjiu said immediately: "Let the two generals and the envoys tell us about the battle situation, so you can report it to King Silla."
Etu said immediately: "Yes, Khan, and I led five thousand light cavalry with Brother Yinghefu, encountered Goguryeo reinforcements, and then fought with him. He ordered people to report back to Khan, and Khan immediately ordered General Wang, Wuguna, Shi Defeng to lead the Wansheng Army and the Cavalry Group to come for reinforcements."
Yinghefu smiled and said, "The Goguryeo people are mostly infantrymen, while our army is all cavalry. Under the harassment of our army, they did not go fast, so they waited for the Khan army to arrive. They were still far away from this city, timidly crawling slowly as turtles."
Speaking of this, everyone laughed, and the victorious atmosphere immediately infected everyone.
Etuo was a little unhappy. Yinghefu stole his words and said anxiously: "Khan, Goguryeo. They were reinforcements, but they were surrounded by us in place. You are ridiculous. I discussed with Yinghefu and knew that the opponent's general was just like this. Now when the Khan's reinforcements arrived, we took advantage of the unpreparedness and broke into the opponent's camp with Uguna's heavy armored cavalry as the vanguard. The troops entered one after another, and the Wansheng Army and the Cavalry Group, and our cavalry were behind us to kill them. The group of Goguryeo collapsed as if they had no eggs. It was like deserters all over the mountains and fields..."
Seeing that Ertuo was talking vulgar, the civil officials didn't care and happily congratulated Li Chongjiu on the victory.
Only the general Wuguna stood silently and said nothing. When several generals were scrambling to talk about this war, Wuguna was silent.
Li Chongjiu looked at Wugunai and asked, "How many injuries are there for heavy armored cavalry?"
"Eighty-seven!" Wugunai said in a deep voice.
Eight hundred cavalry casualties and eighty-seven cavalry were killed and eighty-seven cavalry, which was the heart of Li Chongji. Eighty-seven cavalry, plus the previous battle with the Xi tribe, the eighty-seven cavalry had suffered and hundreds of cavalry casualties, but this also shows that the Maru-Chatred is good at fighting.
What kind of Goguryeo general was timid and defeated in one fell swoop. If it weren't for the power of the heavy cavalry of the Marx, Yinghefu and his light cavalry would have only dared to surround the Goguryeo army and did not dare to attack forcefully, and there would have been no such great victory.
When he first met the power of the Jurchen heavy cavalry of his descendants, no wonder the Jurchens in later generations dared to shout out words that the Jurchens were not as strong as ten thousand and were invincible. Li Chongjiu wanted to hold this man firmly in his hands and never let the shame of Jingkang repeat itself in later generations.
"Reward!" Li Chongjiu said this word.
At that moment, Li Chongjiu said, "The record room obeys the orders and records the Marine Armor cavalry as its first merit. Each cavalry is rewarded with a thousand coins, two pieces of silk, five stones of grain, and ten sheep! The fallen soldiers will give them the reward and give them to their families!"
"promise."
Everyone heard that the seven hundred cavalrymen of the Marines were rewarded, and they all looked at Wugunai with envious eyes. This time, the Marines of the western Liaoning were able to make a fortune.
Li Chongjiu said to Wugunai: "Brother, no matter how much reward you give, it cannot be exchanged for the lives of the soldiers, but this is all I can do."
Wugunai's face moved slightly, and he clasped his fists to Li Chongjiu and said, "Thank you."
After hearing this, Yuanxiao Kongshan realized that Wugunai and Li Chongjiu were sworn brothers.
Li Chongji looked at Tudiji again and said, "As for the fallen soldiers of the Mariner, should they choose elite troops from the clan to supplement them, how about?"
He suddenly smiled and said, "Khan, with such a heavy reward, my warriors of the wild horse will definitely rush to enter these eight hundred armored cavalry."
Yuanxiao Kongshan remembered the group of the Marine cavalry, who were wearing heavy armor with people and horses. At that moment, Yuanxiao quietly said to Kongshan: "Envoy Li is strict in governing the army, and he is strong in his command, so he cannot do anything about it in the future!"
Kongshan nodded.
Later, Etuo reported the results of the battle to Li Chongjiu. More than 500 troops of Goguryeo were killed. Except for hundreds of cavalrymen who fled, the remaining infantry surrendered because they could not escape the pursuit of the cavalry.
So this time, the complete victory almost wiped out the enemy.
Yuan Xiao said to Li Chongjiu: "Empress, all reinforcements will be destroyed, and the Liaodong City will be empty. In order to protect the Liaodong City, King Goguryeo would definitely transfer the eastern Lord Yuan Gaisuwen to return to the rescue. Before that, the Khan could lead his troops to look around in Liaodong."
Li Chongjiu smiled. He was here to get a bargain, not to fight against the Goguryeo people.
In the evening, the lord of Baiyan City was taken back by the cavalry under Li Chongjiu's command. It turned out that Li Chongjiu had set up an ambush in the north of the city, so he captured them all.
The city lord's previous behavior of betraying the defenders and the people and abandoning the city and fleeing has long shaken the hearts of the army and the people in the city. Now the city lord is being held under the city, which makes the army and people in the city look at it in full view.
Seeing that the city lord was stripped of his clothes, his hands tied up, and he sat down at the city with a dejected look. The people in the city were suddenly in a state of turmoil.
On the last day, the Goguryeo soldiers in the city, along with more than 10,000 people, went out of the city to surrender.
Weapons were piled up like mountains in front of the city gate, and soldiers and the people came out in two rows. Then they all squatted on the ground with their heads in their arms. Everyone had a sad face, and they didn't know what their fate would be in the future.
