King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 96 Attacking Liaodong (7)

And behind each row of spearmen there is a row of sword and shield soldiers. The shields are used to withstand the pressure in front, and the swords are also used to prevent lucky enemy troops from attacking. The spear couldn't react at all, and it was up to them at this time.

Even if more than 3000 cavalry charged, Li Lin believed it, and he would not boast of his [-] soldiers, but Li Lin felt sorry for them after all, so he equipped them with archers. Let the spearmen go up.

Li Lin based his whimsical formation on the basis of soldiers from ancient Rome, Carthage, and some people from Hannibal (of course they saw it in movies or science and education films), and Li Lin experimented and worked it out. After training a few deformation formations, and after hard training, today this team is finally able to do a real job on the battlefield.

As soon as the 3000-man army came out, it was majestic, "Hoha! Hoha! Hoha!" They stepped forward in neat steps, holding their spears at the same time. As a result, whether it was the cavalry who could still charge, or fell to the ground The survivors were almost all stabbed to death by such a hedgehog-like object.

On the other hand, more than a thousand people led by Tai Shici finally arrived in the valley. The 2000 Gongsundu army in the valley was able to withstand the fighting of Yan Rou and Yan Zhi's soldiers for a while at first, but after a long time , Coupled with the arrival of Tai Shici's reinforcements, they immediately surrendered.

Whether it was inside or outside the valley, after half an hour, everyone was cleaning the battlefield, and everyone was not in a hurry, because Li Lin told them that after the old boy Gongsundu knew that all the people he sent out for playing tricks were wiped out, They must be even more afraid to leave the city rashly, they have plenty of time to clean up the battlefield.

Yan Rou wiped the blood off her face, and walked in front of Tai Shici, Yan Rou also walked over slowly, Tai Shici looked at the dejected two, smiled and said, "Hehe, two brothers, there is no need to do this, let's wait a while But the battle has been won!"

Yan Rou sighed and said, "Hey...the first time the acting army went out and was ambushed, it's so fucking unlucky, and many brothers died, how can I explain to Yuan Jie when I go back..."

Tai Shici said, "Haha, brother, let me tell you, in fact, as soon as you left, Yuan Jie predicted that you would encounter an ambush, so he asked me and Xu Liang to help you. If it weren't for you, how could we wipe out the enemy army?" !" Of course Tai Shici couldn't say that Li Lin actually used you as bait, because Gongsundu's soldiers came out to wipe them out...

Yan Rou was startled when she heard this, and said puzzledly, "No wonder you arrived so fast... But why did Yuan Jie know that we would encounter an ambush, why didn't he come and tell us, even if we don't withdraw our troops, we can make another preparation what!"

Tai Shici smiled and said meaningfully, "Hehe, I still can't see it. This is Yuan Jie testing you. Now Yuan Jie thought of it. If the two of you will lead the army by yourself in the future, at that time It’s up to you to figure out a way in times of crisis, so that you can make the right decision at that time. Anyway, we’ve already made preparations for this moment. Why don’t you two test your ability to respond well? Leading the army, when encountering an ambush, can you react as quickly as possible and make the best decision!" After speaking, Tai Shici patted the two on the shoulder.

Yan Rou and Yan Zhijun nodded, the complaints that had arisen in their hearts just now disappeared, and after a while, Yan Rou suddenly sighed, and said slowly, "So many soldiers have been lost this time, Yuan Jie's test ………I’m not qualified……”

Tai Shici immediately shook his head and said, "Hey... You are not unqualified, Yuan Jie said, if you two rush out of the valley desperately, you will also keep resisting when you see the cavalry outside the valley. So after we kill you, if you are dead, you will directly transport the corpses back. If you are alive, you will also be tied back to listen to Hou Yuanjie's fate, and you can actively resist in the valley, do not rush out of the valley rashly, and stand up to our reinforcements If you can turn around immediately, while defending, while returning from a long distance, and withdrawing from the back, then you have passed the test!"

Then Tai Shici said very approvingly, "I didn't expect the two brothers to lead the soldiers to the hillside and defeat the enemy army. I can’t think of a lot of military books! This time Li Lin will definitely praise you two brothers when he goes back! Let me tell you, the two of you led the army this time not because you lost a battle, but because you won a big victory, so there is no need to do this It's frowning!"

Yan Rou and Yan Zhi are both simple and honest people. After thinking about it, the revenge in her heart was quickly let go. Yan Rou asked, "Then we have wiped out these enemy troops for a while, what should Yuan Jie say next?"

Tai Shici said, "Hehe, both of you have become pioneers. Of course, you took the army directly to Xiangping City, but it was not the original 3000, but the 5000 brought by Xu Liang, and the 1000 I brought together. Jie said, let's go directly to camp five miles outside the north gate of Xiangping City, and provoke every day, but if we don't attack the city, it's fine! Yuan Jie will arrive soon!"

Yan Rou asked suspiciously, "Huh? Yuan Jie didn't arrive until later, so what is he doing in Xi'an Ping?"

Tai Shici gave a smirk, "Hey...he! Waiting for his father-in-law to send troops..."

Xi'an Ping, the county magistrate's office, is now Li Lin's residence. Li Lin is looking forward to it sooner or later, and finally waits for the news from Hao Wen that his cheap old man, the King of Goguryeo, has promised to be the leader of the whole country. The soldiers came to help themselves.

When Goguryeo saw Li Lin’s dowry gift from Hao Wen, the little one couldn’t hold his tongue from ear to ear. In the past, the princes and nobles of the Han Dynasty all fawned on the Huns who had great influence outside the Great Wall like the Huns and Xianbei. What? When I was still holding on to my smiling Goguryeo, I wanted to get married, and I also sent such a precious gift. When the Goguryeo nobles, whether they are big girls, young daughters-in-law, middle-aged women, or old ladies, they saw all kinds of colorful fragrances. When it comes to soap, the eyes are straight, and with Hao Wen's mouth that can fool, of course it is a little KISS to deceive the Goguryeo people.

Hao Wen brought news that the King of Goguryeo had agreed to personally lead [-] elites from all over the country to conquer, and when he was victorious, he would send his youngest daughter to him.

Li Lin looked at this item speechlessly, and said without cutting it, "Damn! This old boy still thinks his daughter is a sweet potato?"

Someone nearby asked, "General, how do you know that this Goguryeo king has another beautiful little daughter, and she has admired her for a long time? Have you ever had contact with the Goguryeo royal family?"

Li Lin smiled and said, "Fart! How the hell would I know, but those kings, the wife pushes her a lot, and there are also a lot of children. Under normal circumstances, there must be some small daughters who are not married, so I will say yes." His daughter, did I tell you which one it is, another similar one will do!"

The man's face was full of black lines, "It turns out that the general is just talking nonsense, I didn't expect to guess it right..."

Li Lin patted him on the shoulder, pretending to be very old-fashioned and said, "Little friend, you are still far behind..."

Li Lin immediately turned serious and said, "Since Goguryeo has already dispatched troops, pass on my order to gather the troops immediately, leaving only the old and the weak to defend the city, and the rest of the army will move out tomorrow. Go to Xiangping!"

"No!" The soldier bowed his hands, saw Li Lin waving his hand, and ran out immediately.

On the second day, nearly [-] troops marched out of Xi'an Ping City and marched slowly towards Xiangping City.Li Lin is also not in a hurry, anyway, it will be some time before the Goguryeo army arrives in Xiangping.

On the other side of Goguryeo, Li Lin specially sent people there as a guide to lead the army directly to the city of Xiangping, but don't bang other cities, those are Li Lin's!

In less than ten days, at the foot of Xiangping City, Gongsun Du was standing on the tower, looking at the tens of thousands of troops below the city, he felt his head buzzing, some of them were unstable, and almost fell down, but fortunately there was someone around him to support him. Gongsun Du asked weakly, "Did you respond to the call for help you sent to Gongsun Zan?"

The people on the side shook their heads silently, Gongsun Duchan sighed, and said sadly, "Ah... the sky will kill me!"

One side of the counselor immediately persuaded, "Master Hou, don't be too sad. There are still [-] troops in Xiangping City, and the food in the city is enough for half a year. The tens of thousands of troops under the city have come from afar. It is better to fight for a long time. As long as we can Hold on to Xiangping City, the army under the city will not be able to stay for a long time, wait for the army to retreat, and then we will reorganize the army. If it is impossible to buy it with a lot of money, we will abandon some cities and ask Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan is strong and can help us !"

Where Gongsun Du could still hear the words of the people on the other side, he suddenly jumped up and pointed at the sky and yelled, "Li Yuanjie! I swear against you! I have no you! I can force your father to death, dig your ancestor's grave, and I will definitely kill you!" You! I will kill you! I will kill you..." The more Gongsun Du scolded, the more he lost his strength, he couldn't get up in one breath, and he passed out immediately, and the people beside him hurriedly supported him, and carried Gongsun Du down.

Under the city, Li Lin heard Gongsun Du's scolding, and curled his lips and said, "Huh! I really have no quality, and even said that I am a Marquis, can you talk about civilization!" After speaking, he turned around and said to the soldiers, "Go! Go back Well, I am in a bad mood after hearing Gongsun Du's second son scold me today! I won't attack the city!"

On one side, the brothers looked at Li Lin speechlessly. It seemed that today they could not attack the city again. After so long, Li Lin always found some reason not to attack the city, but Li Lin is a general, and military orders cannot be violated. Quickly ordered Ming Jin to withdraw the troops, several people smacked their lips, but finally said nothing, turned around and returned to the camp unwillingly.
