883 Tai Shi Ci landed on the Korean Peninsula

In Liu Yi's eyes, cavalry combat is decisive or cavalry shooting is king.

In these years, when he led the cavalry of the Liaodong Army to fight with the foreign cavalry, he also won victory after victory, but the Wei cavalry on the opposite side was very different from the foreign cavalry.

They didn't seem to have the idea of a cavalry battle, so they rushed over to fight in close quarters, and the cavalry of the Liaodong Army was close to the Wei cavalry before they even had time to strike with a rain of arrows.

The Wei cavalry used long knives, spears and maces to attack the cavalry of the Liaodong Army, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, knocking them off their horses one after another.

The cavalry of the Liaodong Army did not respond in time, and when they drew their long knives and tried to engage the battle, they were frightened by the extremely superb riding skills and horse combat effectiveness of the Wei army.

One by one, they are playing acrobatics on horses, and all kinds of difficult tactical movements are done very standardly, and they can even use weapons to attack the cavalry of the Liaodong Army with both hands when they rush forward.

To Liu Yi's surprise, a hedge of the Wei cavalry scattered the Liaodong cavalry, chiseled a halve from beginning to end, and then turned the horse's head and charged again.

Liu Yi was well protected in the cavalry unit, but he was dumbfounded when he saw such a sharp impact of the Wei army, and he didn't know how this group of Wei cavalry had such superb riding skills.

But he already knew that it would be difficult for his side to fight back.

It is not a simple matter to sit firmly on his side, but the Wei army can use weapons with both hands to kill the Liaodong cavalry, and when it comes to close combat, fools can see that their side is not an opponent at all.

Unable to fight back, not able to fight back at all, there is no comparison between heavy and light weapons.

The Liaodong cavalry was quickly defeated.

The soldiers were shot down in large numbers and dismounted and died on the ground, but in such a gap, Liu Yi found that what sat under the buttocks of the Wei cavalry seemed to be different from his cavalry troops.

What is that?

Seems to have the function of a cushion?

Liu Yi didn't have time to delve into the twists and turns here, and he realized that the resistance battle had failed.

More and more Wei troops landed with it, and they were gaining a stable advantage, and the Liaodong army could not drive the Wei army down the river, or even hold on to the land, and it was clear that if they did not withdraw, it would be over.

But that's not the most important thing.

If the cavalry can't beat it, I don't believe you can still ride your horse against the wall!

So Liu Yi simply retreated under the protection of his subordinates, retreated into the city, closed the city gate, guarded it on all sides, put all the tools to defend the city on the city wall, and began to prepare to defend the city.

As long as the city is still there, it doesn't matter, this battle can still be fought!

Zhang Fei landed decisively after defeating the defenders of the Liaodong Army, lined up, and quickly rushed to Xiangping County, only to see that Xiangping County had already taken defensive measures, and immediately felt a little disappointed.

What he led his troops south to do was just to quickly attack Xiangping County, thinking of catching them off guard, but since the other party had already reacted, it was impossible to quickly resolve the battle, so he could only carry out siege operations and knock down the city.

Zhang Fei came in a hurry, he didn't carry any heavy weapons, facing the relatively tall and wide Xiangping County, Zhang Fei felt that it was difficult for him to conquer this city, so he thought about it and felt that it was unlikely to attack the city, but he couldn't pat his ass and leave.

Looking at the Daliang River flowing westward, Zhang Fei suddenly remembered something.

The topography of this Xiangping City is very similar to Yecheng, which is built by the waterfront, which facilitates logistics and transportation, and facilitates many things.

Zhang Fei still remembers that when Guo Peng went north to attack Yecheng, he met Yuan Shao's generals who were good at defending the city, and the trial was very hard to defend the city, which made Guo Peng, who had no trebuchet at that time, suffer some hardships, and later in order not to delay the war, Guo Peng thought of a way.

Use the water next to Yecheng to dig a ditch larger than the moat, so that the bows and crossbows of the defenders in the city cannot reach, and then release the water in, so that a city can be trapped with water, making them a de facto isolated city.

In this way, the people in the city will not be able to defend the city if they want to, and if there are no reinforcements, they must take the initiative to go out of the city to fight and give up the advantage of condescending to defend the city.

This feeling is good!

Zhang Fei patted his head, smiled, and immediately gave the order.

He didn't worry about anything else, he asked his subordinates to dig ditches in places where the crossbows and crossbows couldn't reach them, so it was safe, and it would be even better if the people in the city found out about their intention to go out of the city to fight, and he wished that the defenders of the city would come out and fight him.

Dig a ditch with your hands!

Digging a deeper and wider ditch, 10,000 people went into battle, and began to dig the ditch in full swing, and Liu Yi in the city was very strange.

What's going on?

If you don't attack the city, forget it, but dig a ditch?

What do they want to do?

The defenders in the city were very puzzled by the Wei army's sudden trenching operation, and they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the Wei army's gourd, but the Wei army never approached the city and did not reach the firing range, so the defenders in the city did not have any other actions.

Liu Yi stood on the city wall for a while to watch the Wei army's ditching operations, while looking to the south.

Now Gongsun Kang and they should be retreating south quickly, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Xinchang County soon, as long as they arrive in Xinchang County, everything will still have a turnaround.

In any case, he had to hold on to Xiangping City until Gongsun Kang summoned his army to relieve the siege.

However, in a place he didn't know, the other two armies of the Wei army had already landed.

On September 29 of the second year of Yande, Wei Dinghai's general Tai Shici led his army to land at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula, and then the soldiers who were familiar with the road marched north in two ways.

After years of raiding and harassing Mahan and captivating people, at least the route and terrain of this area were thoroughly explored by Tai Shi Ci, so that an area near the coastline was garrisoned by Tai Shi Ci, and a military camp was built, turning it into an enclave belonging to the Qingzhou Thorn History Department.

Although there were no officials to manage it, Tai Shici arranged for the sailors to plant here, plant some food crops, and supplement some military supplies, and also to prepare for this march.

Obviously, it comes in handy now.

Wang Wei and Su Fei, the former generals of Jingzhou, were arranged to be generals of the naval army under Tai Shici, and these two people followed Tai Shici to march together, but they had never been to the Korean Peninsula, so they were quite unfamiliar with this place.

But the two of them were still a little surprised that Tai Shi Ci already had a forward base here.

"I didn't expect the army to already have a garrison here."

After settling the army, Wang Wei and Su Fei accompanied Tai Shici to inspect here.

Tai Shici did not discriminate against Wang Wei and Su Fei because of their status as generals.

After all, Jingzhou already belongs to the Wei State, and their families are also in Luoyang, so they have no reason to rebel again, and they still have a lot of experience in water warfare, and they have been training the navy for more than a year, so Tai Shici cited them as an important helper.

"Your Majesty has decided to take this land a few years ago, and our business travelers have already drawn a map of this land and dedicated it to Your Majesty.

Compared with ordinary islands, this land can be regarded as a peninsula, and because Jizi had established Jizi Korea here, His Majesty called this place the Korean Peninsula. ”

Tai Shi Ci smiled and walked forward slowly.

"I see."

Wang Wei and Su Fei nodded one after another.

Then Wang Wei asked: "Does the general think that it will be difficult to pacify the land of Sanhan and Huiqiao?" ”
