Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3525 Catastrophe is imminent
However, Hou Mo and Chen Lin seem to have forgotten, how can a man with two legs outrun a horse with four legs?He also really didn't expect the cavalry led by Changsun Wen to be defeated so quickly and so thoroughly, probably in the blink of an eye, six thousand cavalry rushed up like a storm, and then fell like a mountain collapsed or a river flooded.

When he commanded the infantry to change from the front to the rear, and from the rear to the front, he intended to quickly leave the battlefield and return to Chunming Gate, but the Guanlong cavalry behind him had been routed like a tide, galloping past the infantry like headless flies and retreating to Longshouyuan , and the light cavalry of Youtunwei followed closely behind and arrived suddenly.

Without giving Hou Mo and Chen Lin any time to react, the right guard cavalry had already arrived.

The reason why cavalry was called the "King of War" in the cold weapon era was that its super high mobility was enough to crush infantry.Cavalry and shooting can kill infantry from a long distance, and charging can divide the infantry array and destroy the infantry's defense. Once the strict formation is separated by the cavalry relying on the powerful impact, it often means a complete massacre, until the war end.

The light cavalry of You Tunwei chased after the tails of the Guanlong cavalry, and after the Guan Long cavalry fled in a panic, they exposed the infantry in front of You Tunwei.The cavalry of the Right Guards rushed up like a tide, but when they approached the infantry, they split into two and turned to the two sides. .

Under normal circumstances, the infantry could only stand in formation facing the cavalry and fight back with bows and crossbows. Otherwise, the more they ran away, the more they would be chased and killed by the cavalry. How could a man outrun a horse?The final outcome is to be bit by bit by the cavalry, and the whole army is wiped out.

However, at this time, the Guanlong army had already lost all morale, and the defeat of the cavalry made these infantry have no desire to fight, and only wanted to rush back to the camp at Chunmingmen.Although Hou Mo and Chen Lin kept ordering the whole army to stand firm and fight, and shouted that as long as they hold on for a while, reinforcements will come, but it didn't work.

Once a defeated force is formed in the army, even if Bai Qi is resurrected and Han Xin is reborn, it will be difficult to reverse.

The more than [-] soldiers are like sheep driven by wolves on the grassland. They only know how to run and flee in a panic with their heads down, without any intention of fighting again.

The right guard cavalry first kept harassing the two wings of the infantry, shooting the infantry with bows and arrows to destroy their formation, and then began to accelerate the charge, forcibly charging into the gaps in the middle of the infantry team, dividing the infantry one by one, encircling and suppressing massacre.

From the Xuanwu Gate not far away to Longshouyuan, in the vast field and under the heavy snow, the Guanlong army completely collapsed like a flock of sheep, and was chased by the cavalry of the Right Tunwei. Leaving behind countless corpses along the way, those crying for their fathers and mothers fled towards Chunming Gate.

It wasn't until they passed the Longshou Pond and were too close to the rebels gathered outside the Chunming Gate that the Youtun guard cavalry retreated with gold and left with a full harvest.

And when the remaining infantry withdrew outside the Chunming Gate, all the Guanlong Gate clansmen were stunned...

Who would have imagined that more than [-] people would attack the Xuanwu Gate aggressively and would be beaten to pieces before noon, and the whole army would be defeated?
The combat strength of this right guard is too astonishing. Cannons, muskets, thunderbolts, armored cavalry, Mo Dao formation, as long as you have one of these arms, you can be regarded as a powerful army in the world, but the right guard is completely complete.What's more important is that this is the remaining half of the Youtunwei after being taken away by Fang Jun.

What kind of ferocious combat power would it be if the Youtun Weiqi was fully staffed?
Hou Mo and Chen Lin fled back to Chunming Gate in embarrassment, seeing that the right guard cavalry behind them had disappeared, so he was relieved. The rout just now was too miserable. Massacred wantonly by the opposing cavalry.

However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, he saw the disciples of Guan Long gathered near Chunming Gate looking at him meaningfully one by one. The gloating gesture made him jealous and resentful.

He can understand the mentality of these people. This remonstrance is not only a key battle for Guan Long to regain the government, but also an excellent opportunity for the young children of the Guan Long Men Clan to rise to power. He made meritorious service in this war, and from then on, he entered the court and became a rising star of a powerful family?

However, he, Hou Mo Chenlin, was only a mere city guard before, but he was entrusted with an important task by Changsun Wuji, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so there is no need to describe his jealousy.

Seeing him disgraced and returning in a big defeat at this moment, everyone is naturally in a happy mood and gloated at his misfortune.

Hou Mo and Chen Lin were full of resentment. If he was really a waste that could not be supported, it would be fine, but it was clear that Changsun Wen seized power first and was defeated later. , How much resentment does this scapegoat bear?
Eh?
Grandson Wen...

Only then did he remember that he seemed to have never seen this bastard since the beginning of the defeat, his heart tightened, and he quickly asked left and right: "Has anyone seen Changsun Wulang?"

They looked at each other in blank dismay, shaking their heads, not knowing that in a situation where the soldiers were chaotic and defeated all the way, everyone was running for their lives, fearing that they would be shot and hacked by the right guards if they were too late, who would care about Wulang Liulang?But now that the eldest grandson Wen is nowhere to be seen, everyone is on tenterhooks.

This is the eldest son of the eldest grandson's family. Over the years, the eldest son Wuji's sons have been killed one after another. There are only a few crooked melons left. If they die again in the army, everyone will have to bear the anger of eldest grandson Wuji... …

Hou Mo and Chen Lin hurriedly sent his own soldiers down to collect the defeated soldiers and search for Changsun Wen's traces. After asking around, someone said: "When the rout occurred, it seemed that Changsun Wulang accidentally fell off the horse, but we are also in that situation." I can't turn around to rescue, but I don't know whether I'm alive or dead right now..."

Hou Mo and Chen Lin only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and a chill rose from his spine and spread all over his body.

Where is life and death unknown?Among thousands of troops, if they don't fall off their horses, they will almost surely die, especially when the soldiers are in a chaotic rout, every soldier is desperately fleeing, and there is no time for others. If you step on one, you will end up with your brains cracked and your bones broken...

It's over now, not only the [-] soldiers and horses were lost, but even Changsun Wen died in the army, and Changsun Wuji had to skin him?

But the problem is that this wasn't caused by his incompetence at all. If it wasn't for Changsun Wen who robbed the military power and was greedy for meritorious deeds, why did this happen?

However, Changsun Wuji would not listen to his explanation at all, and could only pour the pain of losing his son on him.Thinking of Changsun Wuji's "yin man" method, he shuddered...

However, the matter has come to this point, where can he hide?

This is going to be a catastrophe!

He could only let out a long sigh, and told his own troops to continue to gather the defeated soldiers, while he himself rode into the city, and went to Yanshoufang to meet his eldest grandson Wuji.

……

Although the snow in the sky has not stopped, but the cloud has dissipated a lot, the vicinity of Yanshoufang is full of soldiers, all kinds of siege equipment have also been transported to the city, and they are besieging the imperial city non-stop.It's just that the Sixth Commander of the Eastern Palace had been prepared long ago, with excellent armaments and sufficient supplies, and with Li Jing and other famous commanders in command, the situation of winning or losing could not be seen for a while.

Perhaps only when a certain opportunity arises will the current situation of such a fierce battle be broken...

Hou Mo and Chen Lin arrived at Yanshoufang, got off their horses before coming to the tall shop, handed the reins to the soldiers who came forward, came to the door, looked at the hurrying in and out of civil servants and generals, took a deep breath , Suppressing the uneasy mood, stepped into the hall.

The light in the hall was a bit dim, Hou Mo and Chen Lin came to the place in the back, and saw Changsun Wuji sitting behind the large desk dealing with military affairs, he hurried forward two steps, knelt down on one knee to perform the military salute, bowed his head and said: "At the end of the day, there is a heavy trust, and he returns home. I implore Zhao Guogong to punish him!"

Everyone in the hall was taken aback by Wen Yan, glanced this way, and immediately performed their duties, but they might not be gloating in their hearts.

Still the same sentence, everyone was originally an ordinary Guanlong disciple, with few soldiers under him, let alone much power, and you suddenly rose to have tens of thousands of troops under your command, and you will make great achievements in the sky, how can you not feel that way? envy, jealousy, hate?

Of course I can't see you well...

The eldest grandson Wuji, who hadn't slept all night, had his eyes flushed. He paused slightly when he heard Hou Mo Chenlin's confession, put down the brush and documents, and raised his head to look at Hou Mo Chenlin who was kneeling in front of the desk.
