Chapter 30 One Night in Pyongyang (3)(1/2)
Chapter 30 One Night in Pyongyang (Three)
In the Nanshuiyuan, a huge torch appeared.
Unlike the fire in Pyongyang, the flames of this torch soared into the sky and seemed particularly eye-catching. After all, although the flames in Pyongyang City were scattered, they were eventually dispersed. However, the torch in Nanshuiyuan was piled up with tens of thousands of stones of grain and supplies and set fire to burn.
After Zheng Yanqing rushed out for several miles, he turned his head to look.
Seeing the fire in the camp, I couldn't help but smile with relief. The Nanshui River is not far from Pyongyang City. With such a torch standing there, it is probably a bit of hope for the panicked Sui army outside Pyongyang City... Of course, burning the supplies and food is a death sentence for beheading. But at this time, who cares about the issue of supplies and food? Save your life first, and let's talk about the others later.
"Young Master, there is the Tongzhang River in front of you. After you pass by, you can see Pyongyang!"
While galloping on the horse, Chen Guang caught up with Zheng Yanqing and whispered: "If you get too close, you may get us all trapped."
Yan Qing nodded and suddenly stopped the war horse by the clasped stream.
He looked around, pointing at a not-too-high hill in his hand, "Let's look up and make a decision."
After saying that, Yan Qing urged his horse to cross the Hezhang River and rushed towards the hill.
Chen Guang and others followed closely behind, and the group quickly rushed up the hill. They were lucky. Many willow trees were planted on the hill, forming a sparse willow forest. They rushed into the willow forest and could cover up their whereabouts. Zheng Yanqing's horse circled, and after circled around in place, he jumped off the war horse.
Standing in the sparse forest, the sound of people shouting and neighing from the city of Pyongyang was clearly heard.
You can even hear the soldiers screaming and moans when they are injured. Standing on the edge of the willow forest, looking at the past intently, the light of fire was covered with stars, like stars scattered on the night sky. A group of Goguryeo soldiers were chasing the Sui soldiers frantically. Although the distance was still far, it could be seen very clearly. The Sui troops were already in chaos and it was difficult to form effective resistance.
"How many Goguryeo people are there?"
Chen Guang glanced at the battlefield, "I can't explain clearly... But looking at it, there should be a lot of people. Young Master, Nanshui and Pyongyang are separated by this small hill, and it is probably difficult for people here to see clearly. In this case, the fire in Nanshui will be in vain!"
Zheng Yanqing nodded and looked at Liu Lin behind him.
"Cook this forest for me!"
If the Sui army cannot attract the attention of the Sui army, the Goguryeo people can only be chased and killed in the dark. Not to mention counterattacking, it is unlikely that even assemble. The most urgent task is to gather the Sui army as soon as possible to stabilize its position. Otherwise, this will be a big defeat!
Could it be that what happened to Lai Hu'er in history?
Yan Qing had no time to think too much, and the military orders were like mountains. Chen Guang and others immediately set fire and burned Liulin.
After all, this place is several miles away from the Pyongyang battlefield, and the hills are about fifty or sixty meters above sea level. The fire has immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
"Fire, there is fire on the mountain!"
The Sui army noticed the flames on the hill and shouted immediately. They found the flames on the hill and followed the trend and found the flames on the southern slope and soaring into the sky.
"The fire in the South Water... is our people, please withdraw to the South Water!"
On one line, two fire scenes appear, which is unlikely to be a trap. Besides, being killed by the Goguryeo people and fled in a panic, and they could not tell the direction at all. Now it seems that there is hope... Whether it is a trap or reinforcements, there is hope, it is better than a headless fly.
The Sui army, which was closest to the hill, quickly approached.
However, the number of people was not large, and there were only a hundred people. But with such a group of people taking the lead, the chaotic and at a loss of knowledge, the Sui army immediately began to break through. In the dark night, the fire in the south water and the fire on the hills were like a big flag, attracting them.
Zheng Yanqing sat on his horse and looked at the Sui army running from the battlefield.
"Chen Guang, let's face it and kill the pursuers back!"
Zheng Yanqing gave the order and knocked his feet lightly on the horse's belly. The jade hoof seemed to feel the coming killing. He suddenly felt the sudden excitement of Xi Yuyu, and rushed to the battlefield like an arrow from a string. Chen Guang, Kan Ling and Xiong Kuohai followed closely behind. The hundreds of cavalry dispersed and launched a charge like a fan. One hundred and four hundred and sixteen iron hoofs stepped on the land of Pyongyang and made a loud bang.
"It's our people, our people!"
The Sui army, who was first approaching, was panicked and saw clearly what Zheng Yanqing and others were wearing, and suddenly exclaimed excitedly.
The number of Sui army was about a hundred, and behind them, dozens of Goguryeo soldiers, holding torches, with ferocious expressions and were chasing them. Yan Qing and others did not stop and directly passed by the Sui army. In the noise, Zheng Yanqing roared: "Tiger Guard, raise the spear!"
Since he was born in Anyuantang, his entourage was naturally named "tiger".
Except for the three Shen Guang, the other hundred cavalry were originally walking with their spears. With Yan Qing's roar, one hundred horse spears with cold light were suddenly raised. The speed of the horse's galloping was lifted in an instant, and one mile distance was just right for the heavy cavalry to exert the maximum impact.
Zheng Yanqing took the lead and rushed into the crowd.
The horse spear rolled around in his hand and suddenly slammed his arm and stabbed him.
With a puff sound, the Goguryeo man who was rushing in front was penetrated by a sharp spearhead. Zheng Yanqing shook his hands and exerted force, and the body flew out, knocking a Goguryeo man to the ground.
These Goguryeo people are chasing and killing them.
There would be some thought that the Sui army, who was fleeing in a panic, suddenly broke out like this?
After Zheng Yanqing picked up the two, the cavalry also rushed into the crowd. The Goguryeo people caught off guard were stared at by horse spears to death on the ground. The war horses roared past, leaving only a dead body. Yan Qing didn't look back and shouted sternly: "You will retreat to the Nanshui Camp immediately."
It's really reinforcements!
The Sui army, who survived, couldn't help but cry with joy.
From a big victory to a sudden defeat, this daylight situation made them go up and down like a roller coaster. I thought I would die without a doubt, but I knew it was a dark and bright future. The retreating Sui army was led by a brigade coach. Looking at the backs of Zheng Yanqing and others, they suddenly asked, "Who recognizes that general?"
"Ship Zhu, since they came from the Nanshui River, they must be either Zheng Zheng or Xie's men."
"I recognize that person, Mr. Zheng!" A Sui army sired: "When he was in Ye County, he broke through the Feng family's barracks alone and killed many people. I have seen him... He is the famous Bai Yuanjun, Zheng Yanqing, the captain Zheng."
The coach hurriedly shouted at the backs of Yan Qing and others: "Zhong Father Zhu Can, thank Mr. Zheng for saving his life."
Unfortunately, Zheng Yanqing and others had already gone away and did not hear his shouting.
Chengfu is a place name. Zhu Can shouted and immediately retreated to the south with his defeated soldiers.
Yan Qing and others rescued three groups of Sui troops along the way, with about five or six hundred people. The Sui troops also noticed the situation here and broke into the hills. However, the Goguryeo people also discovered the existence of Zheng Yanqing and others, and the troops began to surround them.
"Young Master, you can't move forward any more..."
Chen Guang immediately cut over an enemy with one knife and shouted loudly: "Walking forward, there may be danger."
Zheng Yanqing's spear flew over, like a strange python that had come out of a cave. The spear head was drawn one by one, one by one, and a scattered arc of light. Wherever the jade hooves passed, they could only kill the Goguryeo people. Beside him, Xiong Dahai and Kan Ling also started killing. Xiong Dahai's two axes danced up and down, like two posts from the King of Hell. No one could block Xiong Dahai's attack by the Goguryeo people.
Kan Ling was even more fierce. The long sword he called "Mo Dao" in his hand slashed and slashed. The sharp blade took away one person's lives. But he saw that he became more and more excited as he killed him, and he shouted repeatedly, and the long sword's slash became more and more fierce. One slash was enough to cut the person in half.
Hearing Chen Guang's shouting, Zheng Yanqing also knew that he could not rush forward any longer!
There were more and more Goguryeo people, and they began to surround him. In the fire, I couldn't see how many Goguryeo people were, but roughly estimated that there were at least more than 10,000 people. It was still far away from the Pyongyang city gate... It was easy to kill him, but it was difficult to kill him.
Yan Qing doesn’t want to present any heroes either!
Anyway, his goal had been achieved, and the Sui army had begun to move closer to him.
So he hurriedly stopped Xiong Dahai and Kan Ling and shouted: "Brothers, withdraw your troops and retreat!"
Nearly a thousand Sui troops retreated to the Nanshui Camp in a mess, and Zheng Yanqing also began to retreat while fighting.
"Yanqing, save me!"
Suddenly, a shout came from afar.
Zheng Yanqing turned his horse and looked around, and saw not far away... about a mile away. Hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers were surrounding a group of Sui troops. The general led by the Sui army was wearing white robes, his helmets were gone, and his hair was scattered and his shawls were scattered.
"Is it Zheng Xing?"
Chen Guang came over and looked at Yan Qing and said, "Young Master, will we save us?"
To be honest, Zheng Yanqing really doesn't want to save Zheng Xing. But after all, he came out together and was even more of the same clan, so he couldn't ignore it.
Besides, Zheng Xing’s father, Zheng Yuanshou, once helped Zheng Yanqing.
This favor must be paid back!
Yan Qing thought for a while, raised his spear and urged his horse to rush towards Zheng Xing, "Tiger Guard, charge!"
The entourage immediately shouted in unison and followed Zheng Yanqing with a spear.
At this moment, a general rushed out of the crowd. He held a heavy spear weighing 60 kilograms, iron armor, soap robe, and a big horse under his crotch. There were four or five bloody heads hanging around the horse's neck, and rushed towards Zheng Yanqing like a ferocious demon.
"Sui Dog, don't be rampant, Yi Mi is here!"
Zheng Yanqing didn't say much, and urged the horse to come forward. The silver-wire horse spear flipped in his hand, and the wide spear head thrust at the visitor.
The horse spear was hung with a strong wind, as fast as lightning.
When Yimi saw him, he raised his spear to meet him. After Yan Qing's horse spear was broken, the spear slipped through his hand, swept across the thousands of troops with one move, and swept towards Zheng Yanqing in the waist. Yan Qing was calm and waved his spear to block it. When he saw the head of the spear intersecting with the iron spear, he turned his wrist and the flat spear was placed on the iron spear and led outward. At the same time, the jade hoof suddenly accelerated. Yan Qing exchanged the horse spear for his left hand. Taking advantage of the wrong kick, he secretly took out the silver whip and buckled his feet on the stirrup. His body suddenly grew. A rhino looking at the moon, and the silver whip hit Yimi's back of his head, which made Yimi scream and his brain burst.
This seems to be very slow, but at that time, it happened in a flash.
Yan Qing didn't fight with Yi Mi at all, so he used Yu Juluo to teach him his trick of freehand: a whip in the spear. Yi Mi was whipped by Zheng Yanqing, but he didn't know how to fight the horse under his crotch and continued to move forward.
Xiong Dahai urged the horse to pass by Yimi's side, and his right axe snatched Yimi's head. He rushed over, and Kan Ling arrived again... Mo Dao swept across, splitting the man and the horse in half.
"General Yimi is dead!"
The Goguryeo people were stunned for the first time, and suddenly shouted in unison, making a mess.
Anyone who sees the murder methods of Zheng Yanqing and his group of people will feel frightened. These guys are simply a group of murderers.
Yan Qing ignored it, kept his head shut, flew over with his spear, and fought out a bloody path.
"Zheng Xing, don't be in love with the battle and follow me to break through!"
Zheng Xing was also stained with blood at this time, and he didn't look like a young man from aristocratic family. Seeing Zheng Yanqing coming, he was also energetic, flew over his horse spear, and overturned two Goguryeo soldiers. He led a group of defeated soldiers and generals to join Yan Qing and others, and broke through the siege.
In the distance, above a mountain of earth.
At the foot of the mountain, thousands of Goguryeo soldiers lined up to guard the mountain, silently.
The lights were brightly lit on the top of the mountain, and a large flag was roaring in the wind, with the words "Yuan" written on it. In the center, a general with a golden helmet and a golden armor stood under the flag with his sword, staring at the killing field under the city of Pyongyang. A ferocious smile appeared from time to time on his broad face.
"Sui Gou Zhang Kuang, this time I want them to be wiped out."
To be continued...
