Chapter 732

Wang Ping'an snorted and said, "These two thieves are small people, they can only play tricks. They don't understand the actual situation at all, so they exaggerate and want to scare us away!"

Goguryeo is now mainly attacking Silla, and the main force must be in Silla. This is absolutely not wrong. The small court of Goguryeo wanted to make a time difference, and combined with Baekje to destroy Silla in one go. After finishing the battle in the east, It just so happened that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the west also gathered in Yingzhou, and Goguryeo could send troops to fight in the west!

Su Dingfang said hesitantly: "The Goguryeo people are too arrogant. They thought that the previous Eastern Expeditions did not wipe them out, and they would have the capital to fight against my Tang Dynasty. They are really overestimating their capabilities!"

Xue Renyi groaned belatedly, and said: "The last general also understands that there must be no army in that little Chang'an city now, otherwise these two guys wouldn't blow up and scare us. And what is that injustice?" My son's things should be a person who is very good at fighting, but he must not be in the city now, otherwise why mention him?"

Wang Pingan said in a loud voice: "I want to scare us. Did I grow up being frightened? It's good that they don't lie, but if they lie, they reveal the secret! Come on, send the order, the whole army should get off the boat quickly, bury the pot and cook, eat Rest for a while when you are full, and then set off to follow Jiangbei!"

Xue Renyi agreed and immediately passed on the order.

Su Dingfang said: "Why don't we let the fleet go along this river to attract the attention of the Goguryeo people, thinking that we should go to attack them by boat, the fleet is moving slowly, so they think they have enough time to prepare. Let your guard down, before they are ready, we will fight from the land!"

Wang Pingan said: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

A large number of Qingzhou soldiers continued to get off the ship, and the horses, food and grass were also transported down.Ten thousand soldiers, it took almost two hours just to disembark, and they had to eat and rest. They were so busy until it was almost dark that they were all ready.

During this period, the Qingzhou soldiers repelled the attacks of Goguryeo soldiers several times, and more and more Goguryeo troops came to the river to stop them. The last time the troops who came to attack reached 500 people, and they were still armored troops.Estimated from the number and equipment, this is almost all the elite troops of the local Goguryeo!
Goguryeo's last attack ended with the annihilation of the entire army. Xue Renyi went into battle in person and shot dead the leading Goguryeo general with an arrow. Qingzhou soldiers charged forward and killed all Goguryeo soldiers!
Regrettably, none of the last batch of Goguryeo soldiers surrendered until the last one was killed!
When it was dark, Wang Pingan took the Qingzhou soldiers on the road. He left behind a thousand soldiers, first to urge the boatmen accompanying the army to go northward along the river, and second, these soldiers had to take care of the luggage.Wang Ping'an was deeply afraid of losing the battle, and when it was time to escape, if he boarded the boat but ran out of food and grass, he would not be able to escape back to Datang.

Nine thousand soldiers from Qingzhou galloped along the great river, and galloped towards Little Chang'an, where they didn't know where they were.

Although they were all cavalry, the soldiers could endure the life at sea for many days, but the physical strength of the horses was seriously damaged, and some of the horses were even like people, with weak feet and unable to run fast.

For the first [-] miles, nothing could be seen, and everything was going well, but after [-] miles, a large number of war horses could no longer be ridden, and had to be abandoned along the way. Qingzhou soldiers began to ride with two riders!
The longer the run, the worse this situation becomes.Hurrying in the middle of the night, and the road that had not been traveled, it was impossible to march at the fastest speed, and the horses were constantly abandoned, which caused a large number of cavalry to become infantry.When running a hundred miles away, the wear and tear of the war horse reached a shocking [-]%!

I don't know how far ahead, but this cavalry unit has almost lost its mobility and can't run anymore!
Xue Renyi felt sorry for his army. He caught up with Wang Ping'an and begged, "Your Majesty, you can't run any longer. Take a breather! Now our son has lost a lot of horses, and if you run alone, you can reach Little Chang'an." , and they are all exhausted, how can we still fight at that time, the Goguryeo people can wipe us all out with a single recoil, so should we fight them, or wait for them to wipe us out!"

Wang Pingan was riding on a white dragon horse. If you were tired, no one was tired. He was tired too, and he had a terrible headache.

Wang Pingan said angrily: "Back then, when the first emperor fought in all directions, he chased the enemy for more than [-] miles in one night. He chased and won the victory. We only ran a hundred miles, but now it is dawn, even if we It’s far behind the late emperor, and you can’t march and fight at the same time, but can’t you just march? It’s only a hundred miles away, so we’re going to give up?”

Xue Renyi said with a bitter face: "But the first emperor didn't sit in a boat for many days, cross the sea, and then go after the enemy! Our son Lang just got off the boat, and he was about to run wildly, even the horse couldn't bear it, let alone Is it a person?"

Su Dingfang ran over. He heard Wang Ping'an scolding Xue Renyi, and he also said: "Little General Xue, you must not stop moving forward now. Once you stop moving forward, the morale of our army will immediately become low. We are in a dangerous situation. If there is no morale, the whole army is in danger of being wiped out."

Wang Pingan said again: "If we retreat without fighting and return to the ship, the Goguryeo people will immediately know the strength of our army and will send a navy to pursue it. General Xiao Xue, you have to retreat on land, so let me ask you, when we are at sea, Our army is not familiar with naval battles, do you think we will all die in battle?"

He waved his horsewhip, and said: "If you retreat, there is only a dead end; if you advance, you will not only have a chance, but you may even be able to win. Moreover, if we have a big battle, the Goguryeo soldiers will not dare to chase, and our army can calmly retreat. The reason, you have to understand!"

Su Dingfang shouted: "Follow the prince, go forward, go forward!"

Qingzhou soldiers have always been tenacious and famous for their bravery. After hearing Su Dingfang's chanting, they also yelled, those who had horses yelled, and those who lost their horses also followed up, shouting loudly, but no one Want to retreat back to the ship!
Xue Renyi thought to himself: "It seems that taking a boat is too uncomfortable. Brothers are not afraid of death, but are afraid of taking a boat!" Those girls are pretty good!"

"Fuck Goguryeo, fuck those bastards!" Qingzhou soldiers shouted, followed closely behind Wang Ping'an's horse, strode forward with great strides!
He ran another twenty miles in one breath.After a night-long forced march, no matter how strong the soldiers in this Qingzhou army are, their physical strength will always reach their limit. At dawn, the darkest hour of the day, the entire army can no longer run Now, more and more soldiers will fall behind. In the end, there are only less than 1000 soldiers who can keep up with Wang Ping'an!

Xue Renyi chased after him again, and this time he really cried aloud, shouting: "My lord, please, I really can't run anymore. You have rushed to the city of Little Chang'an, and you can't fight anymore, the soldiers are gone, who can fight!"

Wang Pingan looked back, but in the dark night, he couldn't see anything clearly, he wanted to continue on his way, but Su Dingfang also came to persuade him.

Su Dingfang said: "My lord, it is really inappropriate to go forward at this time. I don't know where Little Chang'an is, and it's not clear how far away from here, but our army is exhausted and can't fight anymore. Let's take a rest and wait until dawn." , look for villages, catch some Goguryeo people, and let them lead the way!"

His combat experience far exceeds that of Wang Ping'an, so he naturally knows that he can't march anymore, but he also knows that the famous Qingzhou soldiers are not so fragile.
To put it bluntly, Wang Ping'an's prestige is not enough to completely control this Qingzhou army!
In history, there are many cases of long-distance raids. There are more or less cases of running farther than this, and the conditions are more difficult than this. Those who cross the desert and run wildly on snowy nights are no worse than the current situation!

Why are Qingzhou soldiers unwilling to risk their lives?Why let people risk their lives?Wang Ping'an's order?Who is Wang Ping'an?A well-known little genius doctor?But he is not a well-known general, let alone the one who pays Qingzhou soldiers!
If Wang Ping'an's Turkic soldiers were replaced, who dared not follow up, Wang Ping'an glared, and those who could not keep up were trash, what's the use of trash?All cut!Let's see who dares to run wildly!
But if Wang Pingan dared to chop off the head of any Qingzhou soldier now, it would easily cause a mutiny, let the Qingzhou soldier chop him off first!

Panting heavily, Wang Ping'an had no choice but to point to a dark hill in front of him, and said, "Go there and rest, let the brothers follow, and we will go on our way in the morning!"

Xue Renyi breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank you, Prince, for your understanding!" He hurriedly passed on the order, and asked the soldiers to go to the hill to rest.

Wang Ping'an had no choice but to go to the hill. Seeing that there were many trees around the hill, he got off his horse, found a big tree, sat under the tree, and kept silent.

He was very anxious. This time, sending troops to fight across the sea was simply a "masterpiece" of the big men playing politics in the imperial court. It was one of Changsun Wuji's methods of attacking Li Ke, and unfortunately he himself became a victim.

Of course, for the bosses, Wang Ping'an will not really be "sacrificed". Just numbers!

But what he was anxious about was that he had arrived in Goguryeo. He knew that there was a lack of guards in the city, but he couldn't seriously attack it. Up to now, he couldn't even find where Xiaochang'an was. If he arrives, he will really have to board the ship and flee for his life. This will be a great shame that he will never be able to wash away in his life!
He was deceived by the Baekje people, landed on the wrong land, found the wrong country, the opponent was an empty city, and he failed to capture it... If this matter is recorded in the history books, he will become a big joke, and he will spend the rest of his life I don't even have the face to look up and be a man!

Wang Pingan sighed, and his guards surrounded him. Ouyang Li said in a low voice, "Master, don't worry. If it's really impossible, it's not difficult for us to leave. Our brothers carried you and robbed you." The ship returns to Datang, this is not difficult to do!"

Wang Pingan waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to die. I knew this before going out, but the problem is embarrassing!" He shook his head, closed his eyes, and didn't want to talk anymore.

The Ouyang brothers didn't dare to persuade him anymore, so they had to surround him and protect him.

Qingzhou soldiers kept gathering towards Xiaoshan, and many soldiers complained loudly, dissatisfied with this hasty march, not only were they tired, but even their horses ran away.How easy is it to come all the way across the sea and bring so many horses, and lose most of them as soon as we land, who can bear it!

Just as Su Dingfang expected, Qingzhou soldiers are not so fragile.This army has been famous all over the world since the Three Kingdoms era, and now it is even more powerful in the early Tang Dynasty. It is neither a weak dynasty nor a weak soldier. Let them run wild all night and throw away some horses. What's the big deal?

But the soldiers were unhappy, and Wang Pingan didn't promise any benefits, such as letting them burn, kill and loot after they attacked the city.Who would want to cross the sea and fight hard without getting any real benefits?It's not defending Qingzhou!You can work hard, but you can't sell them all!

After procrastinating, at dawn, all nine thousand Qingzhou soldiers rushed up.It has to be said that a strong army is a strong army. Although there is too much nonsense to complain about, as a fighting group, they still have not lost their military discipline, and no soldiers have escaped... Of course, there is no place to escape!
The east is pale, the dawn has passed, and it is dawn!

Wang Ping'an opened his eyes and said, "Anyway, it's already like this, why don't you rest for a while, let the brothers eat some dry food, and then we'll go on our way..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard someone shout: "His grandma, what kind of mountain is this? Brothers, look up and see what kind of mountain is this?"

The voice of this man shouted was full of shock and anger, and he seemed to be furious!
Wang Ping'an felt strange, isn't it just a small hill, what's so strange?He looked around first, and saw that the surroundings of the hill were full of trees. These trees were not wild, but artificially planted.He looked up at the hill again, and upon seeing it, he jumped up!

At the same time, countless Qingzhou soldiers also jumped up, yelling, and the crowd was excited. Many people drew their swords and yelled at Goguryeo like crazy!

I saw this hill, filled with stones and earth at the foot of the hill, and built a stone pagoda on it, and there are countless skulls embedded in the stone bricks!

Su Dingfang was right next to Wang Ping'an. His head was bulging with veins, his eyes were red, and he pulled out the big knife in his hand. He cursed, "These damn Goguryeo people actually built a stone pagoda with the head of my brother Zhongyuan!"

The hill in front of the Qingzhou soldiers was a so-called pagoda built by the Goguryeo people with the corpses of the Eastern conscripts of the Sui Dynasty in the past to show off their military power. This is the greatest humiliation to the Central Plains army!
