Chapter 140: The Tang Dynasty is fierce (from a starting point of ten thousand
The two thousand Tang Dynasty cavalry held their spears straight. Although they were not strictly heavy cavalry, their armor was equally excellent and they rode excellent Turkic horses. They attacked the ten thousand Goguryeo cavalry without hesitation!
The Goguryeo cavalry was caught off guard and was attacked by the Tang army's cavalry, causing chaos.
After barely firing two rounds of arrows, the Tang army cavalry holding war spears had already broken into the Goguryeo cavalry. The hundreds of Goguryeo cavalry at the front were pierced by the war spears!
A Tang general held a horse in his hand, rushed left and right, killing all directions, and one person stabbed more than a dozen Goguryeo cavalry!
The cavalry led by General Tang is full of attack power and invincible!
"He is truly a fierce general."
Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he saw the Tang general's ferocity and the cavalry he led almost breaking the formation.
Maybe this cavalry is the elite of the Tang army, but it is not Li Shimin's black armor cavalry, nor is it the Yulin army and Baiqi who serve as imperial guards.
If it were Li Shimin's cavalry, it would be possible to defeat ten thousand by one thousand.
When Hua Mulan saw her lord praising other generals, she couldn't help but hold her head high, as if she wanted to say that she was not bad either.
Chu Tian saw Hua Mulan holding her head high...
Well, as expected, everything is someone else's good. If Hua Mulan had two thousand Tang army cavalry on the opposite side, her performance would probably not be inferior to that one Tang general.
The cavalry of the Tang Army on the opposite side showed the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty what it means to be an army of a great country.
Two thousand Tang troops attacked ten thousand Goguryeo cavalry, and the Goguryeo cavalry was defeated!
Seeing that the situation was not good, the Goguryeo camp immediately sent a second team of cavalry to rescue the Goguryeo cavalry.
"The Tang Army should be retreating... No, the Tang Army is still attacking!"
When the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty entered the battle, they saw an even more shocking scene. After the Tang army's cavalry defeated the opponent's first team of cavalry, they pursued the victory and drove the defeated Goguryeo cavalry towards the second team of Goguryeo cavalry!
The Goguryeo cavalry had never seen such a ferocious army. They collapsed again and were driven back to the Goguryeo camp by two thousand Tang troops.
Goguryeo's bows and crossbows fired a volley, forcing the Tang army's cavalry back, so the Tang army's cavalry did not continue to pursue.
After a fierce battle, thousands of Goguryeo cavalry were killed, and dozens of cavalry died at the hands of Tang army general Ma Shan.
Blood stained the armor of the Tang cavalry red and flowed down the sharp edge of the Tang sword.
The camps on both sides were silent.
The small-scale cavalry battle that took place on the east coast did not strain both sides, but rather tested each other.
The morale of the Goguryeo camp was severely damaged.
Two groups of Goguryeo cavalry, numbering nearly 20,000, were repelled by the bravery of 2,000 Tang troops and were chased to the edge of the camp. What a shame.
There were a few arrows stuck in the Tang general's Mingguang armor, but he returned with his cavalry as if he was in peace.
"Is he Xue Rengui?"
"Probably not. According to historical records, Xue Rengui was still a small soldier at this time and could not be qualified to lead two thousand Tang troops to attack. And he was still two thousand elite cavalry."
The Tang general returned to the Tang army camp as if he had done something insignificant, and there was no celebration with any fanfare.
This was not the first time that the Tang Dynasty's army used a small number to defeat a large number.
The morale of the Goguryeo camp was low.
On the first day of the National War, an encounter broke out between the lords of both sides, and one lord was maimed by Chu Tian. On the third day, the Tang army and the Goguryeo cavalry had a small-scale trial, and the Tang army won a great victory.
This battle was simply a nightmare for the Goryeo lords.
Although there are few people on the opposite side, they are Tian Khan's cavalry.
Those who came to attack Goguryeo were the veterans of the Tang Empire.
If it were Li Shimin who was in high spirits, coupled with the lineup of fierce generals in the Sui and Tang Dynasties when he was young, it is estimated that Goguryeo would have perished in one battle.
Even the old generals with a few young generals were enough to scare the Goguryeo army.
After the small-scale confrontation, both sides went on patrol to prevent the other party from attacking at night.
Chu Tian summoned the lords of the Second Legion.
The battle of Anshi City lasted three months, and only three days had passed. They were not in a hurry, the time for the decisive battle had not yet come.
The fires in the camp were crackling, and every lord now had full confidence in the Tang army, whose performance was very strong.
"I asked the officers of the Tang Army. The man who just led the troops to kill the enemy was the Tang general Ashina Sheer. He was originally the prince of the East Turks. After the fall of the East Turks, he defected to the Tang Dynasty and became a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. He fought very bravely.
Because Li Shimin was kind to him, when Li Shimin died, he asked to commit suicide and be buried, but he was rejected."
There is a lord who knows the identity of General Tang.
"The Turkic princes can only serve as generals under the Tang army."
"Not only Ashina She'er, but also generals such as Ge Shuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Hei Te Changzhi, Yuchi Jingde, etc. fought for the Tang Dynasty. However, the generals also turned out to be great rebels like An Lushan.
Only Li Shimin can suppress them. Once Li Shimin dies, they might have different intentions. It’s hard to say that Ge Shuhan fought against An Lushan for the Tang Dynasty and died in the battle."
The people present were amazed at the number of fierce generals in the Tang army and the fact that Tian Khan lived up to his name.
"I wonder what the battle situation is like in Anshi City and Baijiangkou?"
"Believe in Tang Jun and our companions."
Chu Tian and the others had no other choice but to trust the lords of the Eastern Han District.
"We are located upstream of the canyon river. Is it possible to poison the Goguryeo army below the river?"
"You have read too much. With the amount of runoff in this river, how many tons of poison do you need to put in to ensure poisoning downstream?"
"Then use sandbags to block the water upstream, and then flood the Goguryeo army."
"It won't work. Once the opponent sees the decrease in river water downstream, they will soon realize that we want to use water to attack."
A group of lords wanted to defeat the enemy and came up with various methods such as water attack and poisoning, but in the end they still thought it was not feasible.
This is a tough battle, with few room for improvement. The lord on the opposite side is careful to guard against it. To catch the opponent's flaw, he must expose the opponent's flaw.
After dividing the patrol tasks, Chu Tian returned to his camp, and Zhou Yafu, Li Guang, and Hua Mulan took turns taking charge of the guards.
On the other side of the river is the Goguryeo army. They may lead their troops across the river to attack the Tang army camp.
Therefore, several groups of Tang and Han troops held torches and patrolled along the river to prevent the other party from secretly setting up pontoon bridges and crossing the river for surprise attacks.
A group of cavalry passed by the camp of the Second Army where Chu Tian was located. One of the cavalrymen was holding Fang Tian's painted halberd, with his bow drawn at his waist, and he glanced at the camp of the Second Army intentionally or unintentionally.
In his opinion, the army of the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty was still unable to compare with the Tang army at its peak.
This Tang army was the elite that conquered the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin wanted to rely on the elite to quell the future troubles of Goguryeo for future generations in his final years.
Chu Tian didn't know that the Tang army's cavalry was passing by, but he slept peacefully in the tent.
In the Goguryeo camp opposite, the Goguryeo lords who were frightened by two thousand Tang troops could not sleep at night.
One hundred thousand Tang troops and 50,000 Han troops went south to confront them. There were 300,000 Tang troops and 200,000 Han troops outside Anshi City. Their movements were really disturbing.
Li Ji's Tang army went south not only to provoke the Goguryeo army, but also to cut off the Goguryeo army's field of vision. Millions of reinforcements were piled in the south of the canyon, but they had no idea what the battle situation was like in Anshi City.
Another disadvantage of the Goguryeo army was that the more people it had, the more food it needed.
"Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen are putting pressure on us. They must attack the Tang army as soon as possible, otherwise they will lose their troops."
Cui Zaishan glanced at the Goguryeo lords present. He planned to strengthen the wall and clear the country, but he misjudged the food problem of the Goguryeo army.
The Goguryeo army numbered 1.5 million, and the logistical pressure was greater than that of the Tang army. It was destined that the Goguryeo army had to launch an attack.
"Can we...can win?"
The Goryeo lord saw the Tang army's majesty during the day and was a little frightened.
"The ones who came to provoke the Goguryeo army during the day were the elite cavalry of the Tang army, not ordinary soldiers, so there is no need to be afraid."
Cui Zaishan faced a group of teammates who were sometimes arrogant and sometimes timid, with sharp eyes, forcing them to obey his orders.
"According to the original battle of Anshi City, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty would send Zhang Sun Wuji to lead a partial division from the mountain road of Beiling to attack the rear of the Goguryeo army and carry out a pincer attack. We can use the trick and set up an ambush at the exit of the mountain road. I have planned this plan Inform the two generals Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen that they have agreed. As long as the Tang army appears, the 300,000 ambushed army will annihilate them."
At the Xiongjin River in the Baekje Kingdom, Liu Rengui led the Tang navy and the Tang army's cavalry to advance by land and water.
Players from the Eastern Han Dynasty led thousands of small boats to follow Liu Rengui's Tang Dynasty Navy, and the ships covered the river in a mighty and mighty manner.
Compared with the lengthy battle in Anshi City, naval battles are easier to resolve, and the outcome is often decided in one battle.
The towers of the Tang Dynasty Navy were tens of meters long, and hundreds of huge tower ships were lined up in a row, which was majestic and majestic. Surrounding the tower ships were battleships, sea falcons, cockroaches, walking Ke and other small and medium-sized warships.
The lords of Jing, Yang and Jiaozhou mostly used walking ke and only a small amount of 艨艉.
"With the Tang Dynasty Navy as the main force, we will definitely win. With such a navy, I dare to go south to attack the Dai Viet Kingdom in Annan District."
Zhao Guang, the lord of Jiaozhou, was shocked when he saw the grand scene of the Tang Dynasty Navy on his warship.
If he was given such a navy, he might not dare to go south to conquer the Kingdom of Dai Viet.
Tongque, the leader of the naval alliance of the Eastern Han Dynasty, held a nautical map in his hand, which showed the outline of the Xiongjin River and the nearby sea areas.
Historically, the Tang navy led by Liu Ingui met the Japanese navy supporting Baekje at the mouth of the Ungjin River, and the Battle of Baekjiangkou broke out.
In other words, as long as their navy reaches the river mouth, it is very likely that they will meet the Japanese navy and a big battle will break out.
"We are very close to the mouth of the Baijiang River. I didn't expect to have to fight with the Japanese Navy so soon. Raise the flag and prepare for the battle!"
The cockroach of the Bronze Bird raises the flag of preparation for war.
All the lords felt nervous and ordered all the navy soldiers holding halberds and crossbows to prepare for battle.
Donghan District and Dongying District have had feuds for many years.
The Tang army won the Battle of Baijiangkou, and the Japanese lords would definitely try to avoid such an outcome.
Liu Rengui, the general of the Tang Navy, was over sixty years old at this time. His ship was a tall building ship with hundreds of elite Tang Navy soldiers on board.
"Prepare for war!"
Liu Rengui has been reminded by the players that they are likely to encounter the Japanese Navy at the mouth of Baijiang River, so he ordered the Tang Navy to prepare for war.
The Tang Dynasty Navy and the three major naval camps of the Eastern Han Dynasty gradually approached the mouth of Baijiang River, and everyone's breathing became a little rapid.
As long as they see Japanese warships, Dafu will rush up with his rowing boat, and then the archers and soldiers will resolve the battle.
In order to deal with Japanese wooden ships, most of the weapons used by the lords of Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou were rockets.
"It was during this Battle of Baijiangkou that the Japanese were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, which made them realize how terrifying the suzerain country was. However, the Japanese were very good at learning, and they immediately sent envoys from the Tang Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty to learn the technology and system of the Tang Dynasty, forming a more powerful nation.
Country. In a sense, they are much stronger than Goryeo. Just the samurai from Kyushu Island caused huge damage to Goryeo. Goryeo could not defeat Japan."
Tongque mentioned this matter to the other lords on the ship to ease everyone's nervousness.
The navy approached the mouth of Baijiang River, but the Japanese navy, which was as densely packed as imagined, did not appear.
"How is this going?"
Everyone was stunned. The naval battle that was supposed to take place at Baijiangkou was actually avoided by players from Japan!
Tongjak immediately opened the chart and considered where the missing Japanese fleet had gone.
"The minds of these Japanese lords are indeed better than the Goryeo sticks. Although the Korean civilization is more similar to our Central Plains civilization in terms of arms and weapons, it is the Japanese lords who have truly learned the essence of our military art. They do not intend to turn the tide at Baijiangkou because of the difficulty
Too big! Their idea is..."
"They completely gave up the decisive battle at Baijiangkou and chose another battlefield. Now the initiative to join the battle is in their hands!"
Tongque quickly judged the intention of the Japanese lord.
The Japanese lord estimated that he would lose the battle at Baijiangkou no matter how he fought, so he simply avoided the attack of the Tang Dynasty navy and fought again at another day and place.
"What should we do next? Are we going to pursue the Japanese navy on the peninsula's rugged coastline?"
"An encounter turns into a pursuit. If you are not careful, you will be ambushed. Most of the Japanese lords have such a plan."
The lords of the three major naval battalions of the Eastern Han Dynasty gathered on Tongque's warship, talking all over the place. The situation was now a bit out of control.
"Calm down, calm down!" Tongque shouted to calm the panicked lords, "We have the Tang Dynasty Navy. As long as we are not ambushed, we are basically invincible. The next goal is to find the disappeared Japanese navy and then defeat them.
, obtain victory.”
The lords of the three naval battalions finally calmed down a little.
As the leader of the alliance, Tongque personally boarded the ship of Tang Dynasty naval general Liu Rengui and discussed the march route with Liu Rengui.
"The Japanese army is in the south. If we pursue it southward, we may be able to catch up."
Liu Rengui listened to the report of the player lord and finally decided to order a pursuit.
If the Japanese navy was still in the waters of the peninsula, it could be completely destroyed.
If the Japanese navy left the peninsula waters, they would have actually lost.
South of the Baijiang Estuary, tens of thousands of small Japanese warships spread across the sea and sailed along the coastline of the peninsula.
The Japanese generals Azumirafu and Abehirov were persuaded by the Japanese lords to give up fighting the Tang army at Baijiangkou and instead went south.
"The navy of the Tang Dynasty is really indestructible? We are four times the enemy, why should we give in?"
Although Azumirafu gave up the decisive battle with the Tang army, he thought this was a sign of cowardice as he had never fought against the Tang army.
"Please trust our judgment. The Tang Navy has large ships. Once they launch a charge, they can easily crash into our small boats. For the current plan, the only way is to lead them to a narrow strait where large ships cannot exert their advantage and the water conditions are complicated.
You can win.”
A Kyushu island lord with a samurai sword hanging on his waist carefully negotiated with the Japanese general.
"Where is the strait you mentioned?"
"Mingliang Strait."
