Chapter 230 Provocation(2/2)

It turns into a dragon, which is a good thing.

Not long after, the enemy cavalry slowly retreated.

Li Yixie and Ma Shan came over carrying a brightly colored skirt. He glanced at Qin Huaidao excitedly, then chased after him and shouted: "Wait, I will give your king a gift."

When the cavalrymen retreated slowly when they saw the skirt Li Yixie was holding up, their eyes suddenly turned red and their breathing became rapid, as if they had been greatly humiliated. The leading general became even more furious and shouted: "Generals, listen to the order.

The king must not be humiliated, kill me——"

"kill!"

Two thousand cavalrymen were like sparks falling into a frying pan, bursting into flames and rushing forward with howls and screams.

Li Yixie showed no signs of weakness and wanted to fight back. When he heard Qin Huaidao's order to retreat, he had no choice but to throw away his skirt and shouted: "Take this to your king and ask him to go back to find his mother-in-law. Come back when he grows up, ha."

Ha ha."

With a wild laugh, he rode back to the city.

The two thousand cavalrymen were furious. They had humiliated the king so much. If they did not do anything, they would be dead if they went back. They rushed up one by one, howling and screaming, without caring about anything. When Qin Huaidao saw that he had succeeded in luring the enemy, he decisively led his men to withdraw. He rushed into the city gate and slowed down.

, leave from both sides.

The platform in front of the city gate seems to be unremarkable, but underneath it is a huge horse pit, which is covered with a thin layer of boards and a layer of floating soil on top of the board, which cannot be seen on the surface.

Outside the trapped horse pit, there were two thousand imperial troops gathered in a pocket shape. Everyone was holding a repeating crossbow and staring at the city gate in a serious manner.

"Boom!"

The roar of the galloping horses is getting closer and closer, but the soldiers' eyes are bright, and their hands holding the crossbows are as steady as a rock. This kind of battle has been experienced last time, and with experience, no one is worried.

Qin Huaidao thought about how he had just fought seven generals in a row and was extremely humiliated. The King of Goguryeo must have been furious. He couldn't explain to the army unless he did something. He might attack madly. He immediately shouted to Li Yixie: "Quick, inform the office.

, Chu Bi each brought a thousand men and horses over, standing by on the left and right, taking turns at any time, and everyone prepared a shield just in case."

"Obey the order!" Li Yixie hurried away.

"Boom!"

At this time, a group of cavalry rushed into the city gate. The general took the lead. When he saw the opponents holding repeating crossbows all around, his pupils shrank suddenly. He realized that it was a trap, but the cavalry had already entered the city and the city gate was narrow. There was nothing they could do.

He retreated and had no choice but to rush forward.

In order to boost morale, the general roared: "Come in and kill -"

As soon as he finished speaking, the general felt his body falling. Before he could react, he was hit by something and fainted.

A large number of cavalry rushed out of the city gate, like demons emerging from hell, each one with murderous intent, their faces as cold as frost, but they fell into the horse pit one after another, accompanied by screams.

The impact was too fast and it was impossible to stop it. The people behind were unable to see the situation of the horse pit due to their blocked vision, so they rushed in with all their strength.

After a while, the horse trap was filled up. If there were not one thousand, there were eight hundred. Those below would be crushed to death if they did not fall to death. The ones above stood up and wanted to run. The cavalry behind them rushed over, bumped the people again, and trampled on the bodies of their companions.

Rush forward.

At this time, a series of crossbows sounded, and a dense burst of arrows came over to seal the city gate.

The city gate was so big, and the arrows intertwined into a big net, sealing the city gate tightly. No one could break through. In a blink of an eye, corpses piled up like mountains, blocking the city gate. The enemies behind could not get in, so they had to turn back.

He went back, but the defenders on the city wall took action.

A dense burst of arrows flew past, and no one could escape.

The battle exploded instantly, but ended quickly.

Everyone was excited as they looked at the corpses all over the ground. They were all worth money.

What Qin Huaidao saw was the meat of two thousand war horses, and he immediately ordered: "Hurry up and clean the battlefield, let Anguo Gong send people to take the horses down, and stew them in several large pots to reward everyone."

"Follow the order!" Yuchi Baolin responded excitedly and arranged for someone to pass on the order.

The troops acted quickly, carried the corpse aside, and cleared the city gate passage. Qin Huaidao rode out and stood outside the gate looking at the enemy formation. There were still too many people to rush out of the city for a decisive battle. Yuchi Baoqi caught up and said: "

The general is partial and won't call me when he goes out to fight against the general."

"Didn't you get a lot of credit from the battle just now?"

"Hehehehe, this kind of credit is not interesting, not exciting enough." Yuchi Baoqi said sheepishly, the two thousand enemy soldiers' credit he picked up for nothing was too easy, and he couldn't show it off.

"Okay, don't act like a good boy just to get an advantage." Qin Huaidao laughed and scolded.

Yuchi Baoqi smiled and looked at the enemy formation in front and said: "General, the enemy's formation looks like there are probably 60,000 to 70,000 people. We still have too few people. Otherwise, we can set up our posture and fight directly. Otherwise, we

How about camping out at night?"

"Stealing the camp?" Qin Huaidao thought for a while, suddenly he had a plan in mind, and said happily: "What a good idea, it reminds me. Let's fight tonight, and the outcome will be determined by one battle!"

"A battle will determine the outcome?" Yuchi Baoqi was shocked. He thought that stealing a camp was bold enough. He didn't expect that Qin Huaidao wanted to decide the outcome in a battle. This can be done. He couldn't help but remind him: "General, I just said it casually.

It’s not true, if we guys really start fighting, we won’t be able to fight each other.”

"It doesn't matter, I'll find my own way." Qin Huaidao smiled and deduced the plan he just thought of in his mind. While observing the enemy's formation and the surrounding terrain, he felt more and more feasible.

In order to make sure nothing went wrong, Qin Huaidao rode forward and continued to observe the terrain and keep it in mind.

After that, Qin Huaidao climbed up the city wall and kept in mind the deployment of outsiders and the terrain conditions of the other three gates.

Half an hour later, no enemy attack was seen. Guessing that the two thousand people were angry and acted on their own and it was not the King of Goguryeo's decision, Qin Huaidao led his people back to the city and shouted: "Send the order, drop the huge stone, close the city gate,

Clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and officers above the rank of captain will go to the city lord's palace for a military meeting in half an hour."

After saying that, Qin Huaidao took Yu Linwei back to the city lord's office, found charcoal and a large piece of paper, spread them out, and drew the terrain outside the city based on memory.

Half an hour later, the drawings were drawn, and someone was asked to push open a small screen and stick the drawings on the screen for easy viewing. At this time, the captains came over one after another and were particularly kind to see the drawings. It was so convenient. At first, everyone was based on the drawings.

Drawing battle, don't worry about understanding and execution errors.

As soon as the drawings come out, the war will begin!

Everyone got excited and looked at the drawings one after another. The enemy camps and terrain outside the city were clearly visible, which was very convenient.

At this time, Li Yixie hurried in, clasped his fists and said, "General, there are prisoners who want to see you."

"Prisoner? See me?" Qin Huaidao said somewhat differently.

Li Yixie quickly explained: "When we were cleaning the horse pit, we found that a person was still alive. He asked to see you, saying that he wanted to see you for something urgent. He didn't want to deceive you. Do you think?"

"Bring it in." Qin Huaidao became interested and motioned for someone to turn over the screen to prevent leakage.

Not long after, a prisoner of war came with a deposit, and the prisoner hurriedly said to Qin Huaidao: "This general, little Zhu San'er, serves as my general..."

"Wait a minute, your Tang language is much more proficient than other Goguryeo people." Qin Huaidao interrupted, his cold eyes a little more scrutinizing.

The other party quickly explained: "To tell you what the general said, the younger one is a domestic slave. He used to be responsible for guarding the caravan. He often traveled between Yingzhou and Pingzhou, so he is more skilled."

"Who is your general? Tell me."

Zhu San'er quickly said: "Back to the general, my general's name is Zhu Huchen. He is from Fuyu and is currently the former general of the Goguryeo Forbidden Army. He has experienced the general's style and noble military demeanor, and he yearns for the splendor of the Tang Dynasty. He is willing to bring 10,000 troops to join him. Please also ask.

The general took him in."

"Give me a reason." Qin Huaidao asked bluntly. If he came to vote rashly, it would inevitably lead to fraud and he had to guard against it. However, there was no need to refuse directly. He could simply throw the question to the other party.

The other party was not surprised, as if he had already thought of it, and said truthfully: "The general told me before he came that he must not lie to your army in any way and should tell the truth frankly. There are two reasons. First, the King of Goguryeo did not care about the life and death of his soldiers, and his behavior was chilling.

, Secondly, I received a message from Fei Ying last night that Fuyu was captured by the Shiwei people. Shiwei and Goguryeo formed a secret alliance to divide the Tang Dynasty. However, they captured Fuyu and killed the generals. If this revenge is not avenged, we will not live together. "

Qin Huaidao was shocked. Sure enough, Shiwei sent out troops. He didn't know if Li Derjian could stop him. He was moved in his heart and asked: "Shiwei captured Fuyu. Didn't the King of Goguryeo know in advance?"

"I don't know about this little thing. Maybe I know it, maybe I don't know it, but it's not important. My general just wants revenge. If your army is willing to accept it, there is one condition. He must not ask my general to attack Goguryeo. After all, the people of the same country cannot go down.

Hand, I hope to go north to block Shiwei, even if the whole army is killed in the battle, I will not hesitate."

Hearing this, Qin Huaidao felt the determination and sincerity of the other general's defection. No one could calm down when his clan members were killed. Not attacking his own people was considered a principle and a bottom line. This kind of person could be trusted. Anyway, he had nothing to lose, so just look at it.

To everyone.

Everyone responded in silence, apparently letting Qin Huaidao have his say.

Qin Huaidao looked at Zhi and lost his ability to think. It was a matter of great importance and it would be right to seek more opinions.

Zhi lost his mind and clasped his fists and said: "General, if I were this general and my people were killed, and the murderer was brought in by the King of Goguryeo whom I was loyal to, I would definitely resist. The other party would still be able to restrain themselves and not kill their own people, but just ask to go north.

You can trust it, there’s no harm in it anyway.”

What Qin Huaidao was worried about was a false surrender. If he deceived his trust and took the opportunity to stab Li Dejian after going north, wouldn't this lead to a wolf? Out of caution, Qin Huaidao pondered for a moment and then said: "Your army will leave tonight to prove his sincerity. After going north, he will find people from Fuyu."

Have a fight and prove your determination. If you can do it, I, the general, will believe in you."

As for tokens, they must not be given to prevent the other party from cheating.

"Thank you, General!" the other party said gratefully without asking any further questions.

"Go back and tell your general that the opportunity has been given to you. Whether you can seize it or not depends on you. Remember, if you dare to cheat, I will personally send him to hell to regret it."

"I will never deceive the general. I promise to bring it to you." The other party quickly agreed.

Qin Huaidao nodded and told Li Yixie: "Find a place to lock him up and send him out of the city after dark."

If there is a fraud? The other party is not asking to go north, but suggests cooperating inside and outside, allowing himself to steal the camp, and then set up a net to wait. Therefore, there is no possibility of fraud, either an excuse to escape, or a sincere surrender.

If it is just an excuse to get away, only a few prisoners will be released, and there will be no other losses. But if you sincerely surrender, the time of darkness will be just right for the other party to sneak back to the camp. If it is really less than 10,000, the chance of winning the camp tonight will be greatly increased, and the compensation will be paid.

The rate is too high and worth a try.
