Turbulent Times Chapter 1093: Da Luo City Defenders
Liu Zhisheng called his subordinates over and said in a low voice, "There is a military fort in Goguryeo ahead. My lord has ordered us to lure the enemy out of the city in addition to killing the enemy's scouts. What I mean is Let's beat them once, let some people escape, and see if we can lure the Goguryeo brigade out of the city."
Everyone nodded at the same time with fighting spirit on their faces. Liu Zhisheng took the rocks and made a shape of the hill to the north. After discussing with them, they led the horse and dived to the north under the cover of trees.
Half a quarter of an hour later, a horn sounded, and eleven people riding horses fanned towards the Goguryeo military fort.
The Goguryeo people on the top of the mountain were the first to notice. They roared loudly and jumped on their horses. I live near the military fort, so there are children and women here, and they fled to the military fort after hearing the police.
The so-called fort of the Goguryeo people was actually an outpost, a group of 20 soldiers, led by the captain of the fort, rode their horses to welcome Liu Zhisheng and his party, holding bows in their hands.
Eleven special fighters held the reins with one hand and pulled out the rapid-fire crossbow with the other, ready to approach and attack.
When the distance was a hundred steps away, Liu Zhisheng clamped the horse's belly hard, and the mount immediately accelerated, and the people behind followed closely, and rushed straight towards the group of Goguryeo people.
Liu Zhisheng drew out the thick-backed saber with his left hand, and slapped the horse's **** with the blade of the saber. However, Liu Zhisheng bent down and grasped the handle of the knife, and with a light wave of his right hand, the thick-backed saber instantly cut off the neck of the Goguryeo man with the speed of the horse. Red blood fell to the ground.
A kind of thrill of killing welled up in Liu Zhisheng's heart. He rode his horse and jogged for a while before stopping. He checked that the saber blade was still intact. This kind of saber is only issued by their special forces team. It is the latest product of Snake Island Arsenal. , Liu Zhisheng dared to swear that any knife placed on the rivers and lakes would cause a bloodbath, because every knife can be called a precious knife.
At this moment, one of the other ten people also committed suicide. Liu Zhisheng looked up and saw the remaining nine Goguryeo people fleeing to the northeast. Withdrew one after another.

…
Forty miles south of Daluo City, a large number of Goguryeo soldiers who were forcibly escorted from Nanyang Village are digging trenches with sweat, a total of more than 700 people.
"Everyone, work harder and fix the barracks firmly. When Daluo City is captured, you will be released. Those who want to leave us as soldiers will pay one or two or five silver coins a month, and the food and lodging will be paid by the public. Come out, there are meat, wine, steamed buns and steamed buns every day. If you want to leave, you will be let go. Our adults keep their promises and keep what we say. On the contrary, if you are disobedient and lazy, you will die in vain. "
These captive Goguryeo soldiers screamed strangely and were able to regain their freedom. Everyone thought that this was an indelible nature, so when hope reappeared, vitality came to them again.
"My lord, will you leave when you turn around? Can you also take me away to Bailing Island, and I will help you farm or fish." The one who spoke was an auxiliary soldier of Goguryeo, digging the soil As he asked, his clothes had been rotted into strips, his bony body was exposed from the holes everywhere, but his face was full of sunshine. Compared with digging trenches, his previous life was more miserable than this.
The navy soldier who watched them dig the trench smiled and said: "As long as you want, you can follow us all the time, at least you can live like a human being, and you don't need food and clothing."
The Goguryeo auxiliary soldier smiled stupidly, digging hard with his head down.
Wang Junlin was on the small hill of the middle army, and couldn't help smiling when he saw this. These Goguryeo auxiliary soldiers had a miserable life, and they didn't have much affection for the Goguryeo court and government. It was easy to win over for their lives. It is naturally much better than forcing these people to work by killing people.
"My lord, the military situation reported by the sentinels sent by my subordinates." Zhang Tiangang's voice sounded from behind.
Wang Junlin took it in a hurry and saw that the fourth unit of the first unit of the special forces team had a horse battle with the soldiers of Goguryeo Fort No. 1, killing eleven of the enemy and deliberately letting go of nine.
"Zhang Tiangang, do you think the Koguryo army in Daluo City will come out?"
"The subordinates think that the possibility of coming out is unlikely."
"Reason!"
Zhang Tiangang said with a smile: "Goguryeo dispatched 15,000 people for the first time, and 30,000 people for the second time to attack Dami Island and Baekling Island. They were all wiped out. Your Excellency scared them. It is estimated that they dare not come out because of the humble position."
Wang Junlin laughed and said, "That's not necessarily the case. Yuan Gai Suwen is in charge of defense in Annan County. Before losing to us, they would probably think it was at sea. Now that they are on land, they won't be afraid of us."
…
…
On April 26th, Wang Junlin's army set off facing the rising sun.
At the end of the hour, the sentry horses in front urgently reported the appearance of the Koguryo brigade, which was heading south. They were all cavalry, and the sentry cavalry of the Chinese army could not approach. It is estimated that there are about 2,000 cavalry, and there are 3,000 more The auxiliary soldiers on the left and right came very fast, and they were still ten miles away.
Wang Junlin smiled and said: "Sure enough, the other party thought that we only had sailors from the two islands, and their scouts couldn't get close. They obviously didn't know that we also brought in 10,000 elite soldiers. They were here to die." /
Zhang Tiangang asked in a low voice: "My lord, do you want to send more sentry cavalry?"
"It's rare for them to dare to come out, let the sentry horses you sent hold them back." Wang Junlin pointed to a gentle hill facing east-west along the official road three miles ahead, "Send the order, march quickly to seize the top of the slope, Let Yuchi Jingde's men line up on the north slope, and Lu Han's men line up on the south slope, it is not my order
, Luo Chunlai's five thousand naval officers and soldiers were not allowed to cross the ridge. Guan Xiaotong and Lu Han's two thousand Qingqi were released to cover the formation of other troops. "
Zhang Tiangang agreed, and quickly sent people to pass orders to the various ministries.
The order began to be executed soon, the flags were flying in the queue, and all the troops began to move forward at a fast pace, arriving at their positions or forming an array, or running.
Lu Han led two thousand light cavalry battalions to get on their horses one after another, and rumbled forward under the guidance of sentry cavalry.
Wang Junlin led more than 400 special forces to gallop on horses, quickly passed the infantry, and followed the cavalry to the top of the mountain. After crossing the ridge line, the rolling hills in the north appeared in front of him like waves.
Two or three miles down the slope, some figures on horseback were chasing each other, smoke and dust billowed in the direction of the official road covered by the hills, and there was a faint thunder-like sound, apparently a large number of cavalry were approaching. Wang Junlin's side's follow-up Qingqi continued to rush down the gentle slope, and threw themselves into the cavalry battle two or three miles away to cover the main force of Wang Junlin's side.
Wang Junlin turned his head and looked to the right. Yuchi Jingde led three thousand cavalry to emerge from the ridge. The dense cavalry rumbled past Wang Junlin and began to line up on the gentle **** skillfully.
