Chapter 619
Early the next morning, Li Shimin left 5,000 people to guard Hejian, and the remaining nearly 300,000 troops left Hejian and headed north, and the troops headed to Zhuo County. The army led by Li Shimin was preparing to cross the Qinghe River from near Mo County.
Cross Danmahe again, then go to Gu'an and arrive in Zhuojun.
The army headed north and passed through counties and towns. However, what Li Shimin and others expected was that all the counties and towns passed by turned into empty cities. There was no trace of people in the fields, there was no smoke in the city, and the vast land seemed to have become
It feels quite uneasy when you get through the wild and unmanned world.
Wang Bodang couldn't help but say, "I have walked more than a hundred miles, but I haven't seen a single citizen! Although it is a strong wall and clear field, it is really unbelievable that he can achieve this level!" Li Shimin frowned and nodded, and said to the person around him.
A commemorative official said: "The commemorative army is careful not to be careless." The commemorative official shouted and rode his horse. The 300,000 army winded forward on the earth, stretching for more than ten miles, but the commemorative official couldn't afford it.
Li Shimin's order was conveyed. Soon after, more than 10,000 cavalry under Li Shimin divided into several teams and dispersed to guard the army. Although the Tang army had many soldiers, the number of cavalry was very limited, which was in line with the Liao army.
It forms a sharp contrast.
The army marched all day and the sun was about to set. Li Shimin rode his horse onto a small hill beside the official road and looked forward. He saw a small village outside the erected front of the army, so he ordered the army to accelerate its advance.
Go to the village in front to rest.
At this moment, a series of rapid horns suddenly came from behind. Li Shimin, who was immediately on the hill, was startled and quickly turned his horse to look back. He saw thousands of people under the setting sun.
The war cavalry was like a whirlwind and penetrated from the two cavalrymen on their side and swept towards their back team! Li Shimin couldn't help but open his eyes! Wang Bodang next to him exclaimed, "Oh no, they are aiming at us."
The baggage team has gone!”
Li Shimin immediately said to Wang Bodang: "Bodang, you will immediately lead the troops to support the rear team!" Wang Bodang responded and immediately rushed down the hillside, leading his 30,000 Wagang warriors to the rear team.
Running away. At the same time, Li Shimin ordered all teams to be on guard on the spot, and at the same time ordered the tweeters to order all cavalry to rush to reinforce the rear team. For a moment, the sound of trumpets came one after another, and teams of Tang army were rushing to mobilize, and the air was tense
The atmosphere.
The sudden Liao army cavalry seemed to be like a strong wind and lightning, as if they had just appeared, and in a blink of an eye it rushed to the vicinity of the rear team! The Tang army officers and soldiers in the rear team roared and formed a formation in a hurry, but before they could form a formation, they were rushing.
The Liao army cavalry collided! In an instant, a huge impact sounded, mixed with the terrifying sound of swords and guns killing human bodies. I saw that the Tang army soldiers who had no time to form a formation were swept to the ground in succession, and flesh and blood were in the sky.
Flying across the sky! The Liao army's cavalry is like wind and lightning, and the impact is amazing! The scene is in chaos, and some Tang army officers and soldiers cannot resist such a terrible rush and begin to flee, but more officers and soldiers grit their teeth and fight desperately, but face their opponents
With the rushing iron hooves, the resistance of the Tang army officers and soldiers seemed to have failed to play much!
After the Liao army cavalry rushed into the middle of the rear team, they did not want to fight. They immediately threw torches onto the large cart carrying food and supplies. After a while, the entire rear team was in flames, at this dusk.
At that time, this scene that the world seemed to be stained with blood!
The war tides were rolling around, and the Tang army troops were coming at full speed. The Liao army cavalry immediately formed a group and rushed out along the way. Two Tang army cavalry tried to intercept, but only saw two Tang army soldiers.
The war cavalry ran hard and tried to rush to the front of the Liao army's war cavalry to intercept them! But it was just a little short. The Tang army officers and soldiers watched the Liao army's war cavalry drilled out from between the two cavalry on their side! The Tang army's war cavalry
Seeing this scene, he was extremely angry and quickly turned his horse to continue chasing and was unwilling to give up. However, the distance between the two sides was gradually widening, and the Tang cavalry could not catch up with the Liao army's combat cavalry!
At that time, bursts of rapid horn sounds came from the Tang army, and the Tang cavalry stopped pursuing.
Li Shimin accompanied the generals to the rear team. At this time, the flames had basically been extinguished, and countless large carts fell on the ground in a row. The scene was very messy! Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but curse: "These hateful things."
Liao people!" Li Shimin frowned.
Wang Bodang rode his horse to Li Shimin, clasped his fists and said, "King of Qin, the loss of food, grass and supplies has been about one-third! The loss of troops is not much..."
Li Shimin frowned and said, "I had expected the Liao army cavalry to attack, but I didn't expect them to succeed!" Wang Bodang couldn't help but say, "We have made complete preparations, but I didn't expect the Liao army's combat cavalry.
It is actually more powerful than the legendary one! It comes and goes like the wind, and our cavalry can't stop them at all!"
Li Shimin suddenly smiled and said, "It's just a trick of rats, it's hard to reach the elegance!" The generals were originally depressed and frustrated, but seeing Li Shimin's contemptuous attitude and hearing his words, the depressed mood immediately disappeared.
After most of the time, the frustrated morale could not help but turn into anger that was teased by the rats. Cheng Yaojin shouted: "They'd better come again! It's better for me, Old Cheng to crush their eggs!"
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Brother Cheng must have a chance!" Everyone couldn't help laughing. The originally solemn atmosphere suddenly became relaxed. Li Shimin ordered the army to continue moving forward until it was a few miles away.
A small village stopped.
Li Shimin arranged the warning matters and immediately led the generals into the village. At this time, the general Hou Junji, who had entered the village first to investigate the situation, ran towards him. He stopped his horse and clasped his fists and said, "King Qin, what's going on here."
Just like the situation in the villages and towns before, all the villagers were gone, just an empty village. Even chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep were missing. These Liao people escaped completely!" Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but smile and said, "This is it.
It's called "Don't Stay!" Everyone couldn't help but smile when they saw that he actually used this idiom here.
A group of people walked into a courtyard and sat down in the courtyard. Li Shimin's personal soldiers held a torch around, illuminating the place like daytime.
