Datang ancient martial arts system

Chapter 386 Attacking Goguryeo

As long as Jin Shengman didn't interfere with his arrangements, Situ Changfeng wouldn't take care of her private life, and of course he wouldn't worry about Jin Shengman marrying Li Tai and causing him trouble in the future.

Accepting Silla is faster than Baekje. First, there are fewer people in Silla, with a population of less than 200 million;

From Silla, another [-] elite young men and [-] auxiliary soldiers were selected, plus Baekje's manpower, and trained for another month until mid-July, when the integration was completed, the army once again approached Goguryeo.

The manpower for this expedition is very sufficient. There are 30 soldiers from Silla and Baekje, plus Datang dispatched 28 to 58 troops, marching into the border of Goguryeo.

Along the way, I didn't see a single person for five days. It was like arriving in a desolate desert. There was no one in the village, nor in the county town, not to mention people, not even a chicken or a dog.

Of course, Situ Changfeng knew that this was Goguryeo's usual tactics. Fortify the walls and clear the fields, and prolong the front. First, it can find more opportunities, and second, it can increase the logistics consumption of the Tang Dynasty. retreat.

It's a pity that they are old-fashioned. They thought that the Tang Dynasty was similar to the former Sui Dynasty, and estimated it according to the strength of the previous Tang Dynasty.

But there were two mistakes. First, Datang attacked from the sea this time, and the logistics route was very easy.

If it is said that the transportation of grain and grass by land is very costly, and the destination is only three points, then the sea transportation is at least seven points, not to mention Silla and Baekje have grain storage support.

The second mistake, that is, the wrong direction, attacking from the direction of Baekje and Silla, completely bypassing the Great Wall built by Goguryeo, the defense on this side is much weaker!
Moreover, Situ Changfeng was not in a hurry to win. With 15 auxiliary soldiers and 15 new recruits, the recruits were in front and the auxiliary soldiers were behind, opening up a wide road to Pingxiang.

Fortifications were also built along the way to ensure the safety of the retreat, and [-] elite cavalry cruised to investigate, which also ensured that the ambush was invalid.

At the end of August, after more than a month of marching, the army approached Xiangxiang, across the river from Pingxiang City.

Along the turbulent Datong River, Goguryeo has built many fortifications, and it seems that it wants to guard against danger.

Situ Changfeng left behind [-] Silla auxiliary soldiers, cut down trees on the opposite bank, built new ships, and pretended to cross the river to attack.

When Goguryeo was very nervous and broke away from the heavy troops on the other side of the river, Situ Changfeng led people to land from the sea, and the troops were already approaching the city.

Although it was unexpected, Pingxiang City was not attacked. Firstly, there were many guards in the city, and secondly, only 3 people landed in the first batch.

By the time Goguryeo returned to aid, all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had already surrounded Pingxiang.

Faced with each other head-on, Situ Changfeng discovered that Goguryeo actually had two more support troops.

One has 15 Xi people, and the other has [-] Khitan people.

Fifty thousand Xi people and 15 Khitan people are almost the vast majority of fighters of their clan, which made Situ Changfeng a little puzzled why they would fight against each other.

"Yelü Chuxiong, you actually dare to resist the heavenly soldiers. Do you want to destroy your entire clan?" Situ Changfeng rode on a white jade rhinoceros and asked with murderous intent.

A middle-aged man with many braids on his head and a full beard clasped his fists with a wry smile and said, "General Situ, it's not that we don't know what to do. We must fight Datang, but there is no way out, so we have to."

"You talk so much nonsense with him! People of the Tang Dynasty, if you want to fight, fight. None of us Xi people are afraid of death." A man with black and white patterns on his face and wearing animal skins shouted loudly.

"Yelu Chuxiong, take me three swords and survive, I promise not to kill all Khitan!" Situ Changfeng said proudly, pointing at the tiger-winged knife.

"Flying tiger with a jade face, with a strong word, Yelu Chuxiong gave up his life to accompany him." Yelu Chuxiong shouted, with a dignified expression, he raised his sword and rode forward.

"Kill!" Yelu Chuxiong knew that he was no match for Situ Changfeng, so he didn't think about keeping his hand. The first move was a killer move.

Situ Changfeng didn't underestimate him either, he raised his hand to meet him with a knife, but only aimed at his weapon.

With a sound of "Dang!", the blade of Yelu Chuxiong's long knife was cut off.

One move tested Yelu Chuxiong's height, and Situ Changfeng made another blow with his backhand.

Now Situ Changfeng seldom uses cumbersome moves, every knife is so ordinary sweeping and vertical chopping, but his knife is extremely fast and powerful, no matter where he wants to cut, the opponent can only parry There is no chance of counterattack.

Yelu Chuxiong's sword broke with one move, he couldn't help being startled, when the second strike came, it was too late to parry, so he quickly threw himself sideways.

Yelu Chuxiong threw himself on the ground, rolled around a few times, and saved his life, but his mount was not that far away, and there was a sound of "poof", and blood gushed out.

"The third trick!" Situ Changfeng shouted loudly, jumped up, and swung his knife at Yelu Chuxiong from a distance.

Yelu Chuxiong quickly set up his weapon with both hands, and parried Situ Changfeng who was in mid-air by raising fire to the sky.

With a sound of "click", the weapon in Yelu Chuxiong's hand broke into two pieces again.

"Pfft!" Yelu Chuxiong only felt a force hit his chest, and he couldn't help opening his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.

"It's not bad to be able to receive my three sabers. Ben will keep his word, so you can go." Situ Changfeng danced a saber in his hand, slightly dissatisfied with himself.

"Thank you, General Situ!" Although Yelu Chuxiong was injured, he couldn't help but beam with joy when he heard Situ Changfeng's words, and hurriedly stood up, clutching his chest.

"Bah! Trash!" Patriarch Xi Ren sneered at the injured Yelu Chuxiong with disdain on his face.

"Hmph! Heixi, try it if you have the guts!" Yelu Chuxiong replied coldly.

"Try it!" Heixi was provoked by him and was about to fight. After taking a step, he stopped and rolled his eyes and said: "There is no need for the chief of the clan to fight, black bear, kill him."

"Roar!" Following Hei Xi's order, a tall figure stood up among Xi people.

He had a messy beard and hair, several white patterns on his face, his arms and legs were as thick as a woman's waist, and he looked stronger than ordinary bears.

Holding a thick wooden stick, the black bear strode towards Situ Changfeng.

"This is the thousand-year-old iron wood in our clan. It is not afraid of water and fire, and it will not move when cut by knives and axes." Hei Xi said proudly.

Yelu Chuxiong just sneered at this. He would not tell Hei Xi that his sword was forged from a mixture of white mountain fine copper and black water fine iron. It was the treasure of the Khitan clan and a mid-level weapon at the heaven level.

On the battlefield, Situ Changfeng was a little surprised to see such a tall man, but more excited. Except for Li Yuanba, it is rare to meet someone who can make him attack with all his strength. This guy who looks like a savage looks powerful Not small.
