Chapter 1109: Field Battle
There were a lot of defenders in Baishan County, and the defenders didn't want to see the loss of the Dashiling Military Village, so they led the troops out of the city and lined up outside Baishan County, preparing for a field battle, apparently wanting to break through Lu Han's belongings and rescue the Dashiling Military Village in the north.
After all, if the Dashiling military village is lost, they will become a lonely city to a certain extent, because of the topography of Baishan County, reinforcements will come to the aid in large numbers, and they can only come through the canyon where the two military villages are located.
However, the garrison of Baishan County did not know that Guan Xiaotong did not do his best to attack the Dashiling Military Village, which was originally the purpose of encircling and reinforcing the land, after all, it was much easier to lead the defenders of Baishan County to the field outside the city than to attack the city.
Seeing that the defenders were lured out of the city as planned, Lu Han began to deploy troops with a look of war, and the enemy army had more than 4,000 people out of the city, and he only had less than 3,000 people, but he was full of determination and confidence in victory.
Wang Junlin did not stay in Daluo City, he was escorted by the two hundred special combat teams led by Zhang Tiangang, followed Lu Hanhan and Guan Xiaotong's army ten miles behind, and rode forward unhurriedly.
At this time, he led people over a mountain, and when he looked around, he saw that the south side of a city under the mountain was densely populated with people and horses, and flags were like clouds. At his feet were Lu Han's 3,000 men and horses, who had already completed the arrangement of the battle array. Four or five hundred steps away, the defenders of Baishan County also completed the formation.
The flags of both sides were blown by the north wind, and the momentum of the battlefield was amazing.
The battle formation placed by Lu Han seems to be a regular glaive array, but it is actually very different from the traditional glaive array, and Baishan County is a typical mountain city, but the surrounding width is also limited, and only eight hundred-person teams can be placed on the front, so the two wings of the glaive array are relatively thick.
Wang Junlin picked up the telescope and looked at it, and found that there was a crowd of people surrounding a general on the tower of Baishan County, and that person was also standing at a high place to observe the battle formation, and the other party pointed to the direction where he was, obviously also found him, but the other party did not have a telescope, and it was impossible to see this side clearly at this distance.
Wang Junlin's heart moved, and he turned to Zhang Tiangang and said: "You take a few people to ride over to provoke the other party to go out of the city to command the generals, if the Goguryeo people should not fight, they will weaken their momentum, and if they should fight, you will kill the people who should fight, which will also weaken their momentum and improve our morale." β
Zhang Tiangang's eyes suddenly lit up, he smiled bloodthirsty, hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely live up to my mission!" β
Zhang Tiangang was about to leave, Wang Junlin pointed to the position in front of the right and said: "The queue on the left flank of the enemy is relatively chaotic, it should only be the private army of local people or nobles, and the discipline is obviously much worse. β
Zhang Tiangang agreed, carried the big long knife specially prepared during the horse war, and rushed down with two hundred subordinates.
Zhang Tiangang went down first to convey Wang Junlin's order to Lu Han, and then only took a few horsemen to carry the banner out of the battle, running out of 200 steps.
Goguryeo fired arrows sporadically in the front, Zhang Tiangang and others reined in their war horses and laughed wildly, shouting: "You and the people of small countries, we are ordered by the Great Sui Emperor to kill you and other small countries traitor Xiang Yuan Taizuo, as long as you put down your weapons and serve those who serve, we will never be embarrassed, but if you block the king's master, we will never be spared!" I am Zhang Tiangang, the commander of the Great Sui Sea Route Army, Zhang Tiangang, the commander of the pro-army special combat team under the command of Wang Junlin, who is the commander of the army, dare not come out and fight with the general, if not, he is a coward and a woman. β
There was a commotion on the Goguryeo side, and a loud scolding came, but most of them were Goguryeo dialects, and they couldn't understand it at all.
But Wang Junlin was not worried that the other party would not understand what Zhang Tiangang said, because the Goguryeo nobles and officials must know Chinese, which is the most basic condition.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a Goguryeo general to rush out with two horsemen.
Wang Junlin knows that challenging the other party's main general in front of the soldiers of the two armies is a yang conspiracy, if the other party does not accept the challenge, it will inevitably affect the morale of the other party, unless the main general is really cowardly, otherwise he will take over the challenge, not to mention that winning or even killing the general of the other party's challenge can boost morale and count the equal opportunities for both sides.
The Goguryeo lord shouted from the opposite side, the Chinese language was not very standard, and it was full of Liaodong dialect, Wang Junlin didn't hear it very clearly, and vaguely heard some words, but he didn't understand what the whole sentence meant.
Then I saw Zhang Tiangang stretch out his finger and scolded the military general on the opposite side, both sides scolded, and then each raised their weapons to hedge, the war horse fought back and forth for two rounds, and in the third round, the Goguryeo general Zhang Tiangang cut off his head with a knife, and the war horse dragged the headless corpse and rushed forward for more than a dozen steps, and the corpse fell off the war horse.
The Sui army suddenly let out an excited roar, and when Zhang Tiangang brought people back, the roar and shouts became louder and louder, echoing in the mountains on both sides, and for a while, it was like a giant dragon roaring in the mountains, the earth shook the mountains, and the morale of the army was instantly strengthened.
On the other hand, Goguryeo's side was a mess, some scolded, some ran out to retrieve the corpse of their general, and some watched the Sui army silently, in short, morale has been imperceptibly weakened.
Wang Junlin had already ordered to attack Baishan County, in general, he would not interfere, and handed it over to Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong, at this time down the hillside, Lu Han did not need to ask Wang Junlin, and shouted directly: "Blow the trumpet of attack!" β
The two soldiers next to Lu Han puffed out their cheeks at the same time, and blew the big horn with all their might, and the vigorous trumpet fluttered in the wind. Countless spears in front were flattened, and the army was surging. Immediately after the sound of drums, the army that seemed to be densely packed pushed forward, like a sword light pushing steadily and flatly, and like a black huge wave rushing forward.
The drums are loud and noisy between the heavy mountains, and the infantry is mainly on both sides, and the waves are slowly approaching. Wang Junlin on the hillside looked at the upcoming head-on collision with a calm expression.
"Whoosh......" A black dot whistled in the air. Wang Junlin looked up, only to see the countless black shadows of the long shuttle gradually slowing down at the heights, and then accelerating and pouring down. The clanging was like a hailstorm, screaming everywhere, and people kept falling to the ground and screaming in pain. The rain of arrows continued, and countless angry roars grew louder and louder in the valley.
The Sui army was well-armed, everyone wore iron armor, and even the helmet had an iron face mask, except for a few soldiers who were unlucky enough to be shot in the eye by arrows or in the gaps in their armor, other arrows fell on them at most and only gave them a beating.
On the other hand, in the Goguryeo army formation, nearly half of them were wearing leather armor or rattan armor, and the Sui army fired fast crossbow arrows one after another, covered by arrow rain, and the strength was strong, and the long-range bows and crossbows fired each other with heavy casualties.
When he was a hundred paces away, Lu Han shouted, and with three thousand people, his speed suddenly accelerated, and he rushed to kill the Goguryeo army in front, and the Goguryeo army also began to speed up, howling and rushing up.
Wang Junlin stood condescendingly on the hillside, watching the lighter surface in the middle being swallowed up by the two armies, getting smaller and smaller, and with the dust flying, the two armies fought together.
Huang Zhixuan saw very clearly from the heights, Lu Han led three thousand people and seemed to be disorganized, but the whole was a big battle array, and it was divided into three battle formations on the left, middle and right, and these three battle formations were divided into several battle formations, and there were battle formations within the battle array, one ring after another, the smallest battle array was a group, and the cooperation between each equal battle array was very tacit, and it seemed a little weird, Goguryeo soldiers rushed into it, as if they were devoured by monsters, and turned into corpses.
And at this time, Zhang Tiangang led two hundred special combat members to rush into the left wing of the Goguryeo army on horseback, each of them at least one to ten, plus the power of the charge, these two hundred people were like a sharp knife that instantly pierced into the left wing of the Goguryeo battle formation, not to mention, and soon directly chiseled through the left wing.
The crowd on the left flank of the Goguryeo army suddenly panicked, and many people fled in all directions, shaking the surrounding array like a plague.
The two armies also began to fight head-on, although from the beginning the Goguryeo people were killed and wounded much faster than the Sui army, but they were numerous, so the fighting front did not waver much; But after the left wing was chiseled through by Zhang Tiangang and others, it seemed to explode here.
And Lu Han discovered the flaw in the left flank of the Goguryeo battle formation at the first time, and commanded a large group of men and horses on the fan-shaped edge to move forward, and poured into the boiling and chaotic left wing battlefield. At this time, it was like adding fuel to the fire, and the festering place of Goguryeo was greatly torn open and spread to the depths. The previously stalemate began to falter rapidly.
"The big picture is decided." Wang Junlin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.
The originally neat array of the Goguryeo army was constantly broken up by the rebels like a neatly stacked dike, and at first it was slowly eaten away. Suddenly, the army on the left flank, which had been gathered together by the nobles' private armies and guards, and had not been trained for a long time, finally collapsed, and if the first one turned and fled, there would be a second, and a third, until everyone had broken down and fled.
At a certain moment, the left flank of the Goguryeo battle formation completely collapsed, and everyone dispersed in a hurry.
The great rout on the left flank immediately affected the battle formation of the Chinese army, some soldiers began to flee, the Chinese army also began to rout, and it was not long before the right flank of the Goguryeo battle formation began to rout.
The Goguryeo rout army ran to the city gate in a mess, but because they did not give in to each other, they were huddled together, and the lord of the city roared and ordered, and released arrows to obstruct the Sui army that caught up, the number was not less than a thousand, and under a few showers of arrows, the Sui army was also obstructed, but Goguryeo's own chaos on the battlefield was unbearable.
The Goguryeo people rushed to enter the city, but the speed of entering the city was very slow, and the Goguryeo soldiers who ran behind saw that there was no hope of escaping, so they still dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the lord of Baishan County was worried that the Sui army would follow the chaotic army into the city, and after putting more than 2,000 people into the city, he decisively closed the city gate, and the city wall was full of swords and guns, and sat back and watched the nearly 1,000 Goguryeo soldiers outside surrender to the Sui army.
