Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 532: Abandoning the city and fleeing, the Tang army beat the downed dog!
Hengdao River.

The heartland of the Suomote tribe is also where the leader of the Suomote tribe, Qiqi Zhongxiang, lives.

The reason for such a strange name is that the Mudanjiang River comes from the north, dividing the large land here into several areas of different sizes.

Hengdao River is located where these rivers intersect.

Jin Yong and Cao Yuan, along with dozens of their men, arrived here covered in dust and exhausted after traveling all the way.

Although Hengdao River is the heartland of the Sumo tribe, there are many brokers and merchants from other countries among the travelers.

Jin Yong and his companions came disguised as business travelers, so naturally they did not attract much attention.

The group entered the city smoothly.

"Compared to Chengshanzi, the garrison here doesn't seem to be strict. It seems that the news from Chengshanzi has not yet reached here."

Quietly observing the defenders in the city, Jin Yong came to this conclusion.

Perhaps it was because the Hengdao River was deep in the heart of the Sumo tribe, or perhaps Qiqi Zhongxiang was too arrogant and did not believe that anyone could easily kill their way here, or perhaps it was something else.

At least from the defenders, he found that the defense here was very lax.

"This is the heartland of the Sumo tribe. More than 90% of the people in the city are Sumo tribe members. If someone attacks here, most of the people in the city will fight back vigorously."

Cao Yuan said softly, "It is difficult to capture this place with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. If there were more people and horses, Qiqi Zhongxiang would get the news first."

Jin Yong nodded in understanding.

The group found an inn and stayed there to rest.

As soon as Jin Yong entered his room, he heard a burst of pigeon calls. He hurried to the window and opened it.

Then a white dove flew in from the window.

Jin Yong hurriedly caught the white dove and took the note off the pigeon's feet.

"The prince will personally lead 3,000 troops to launch a surprise attack on Hengdao River. You will cooperate with us when the opportunity arises."

Three thousand?

Jin Yong's eyes widened.

The prince only brought three thousand soldiers and headed for Hengdao River?
This is just a joke!
Jin Yong put away the note, released the white pigeon, and then quickly walked to Cao Yuan's door.

"Cao Yuan."

"Is something wrong?"

When Cao Yuan opened the door, he saw Jin Yong walking in with a serious face, and then took out a note.

After seeing the message on the note, Cao Yuan felt his scalp tingling.

Three thousand people attacked Hengdao River where tens of thousands of people lived?
This is undoubtedly asking for trouble.

"The prince wants to destroy the Sumo tribe and capture Qiqi Zhongxiang alive, so the speed will not be too slow. We must act as soon as possible."

"But we don't have many firearms this time, so we can't create a scene like the one in Turkestan."

"This is a problem..."

Cao Yuan knocked his head and thought that without enough bombs, it was impossible to blow up the entire Hengdao River.

but.

Cao Yuan whispered, "Then why don't we consider blowing up Mudanjiang?"

Jin Yong’s eyes widened immediately. Blow up Mudanjiang?

Let the river water in the river channel directly flood the entire Hengdao River?

"good idea."

"But the question is, if the river channel is really blown up, how will the prince's cavalry reach here?"

Cao Yuan: “…”

This is a problem.

After all, after the Mudanjiang River was blown up, a large amount of river water rushed in. Although it was able to flood the entire Hengdao River, large tracts of land would also be soaked by the river water and become muddy.

Cavalry is worse than walking!

"It's not right, it's not right."

Cao Yuan sighed, "If that's the case, then there is only one way."

"any solution?"

"Use kerosene."

"Kerosene?"

Jin Yong's eyes lit up, but he still shook his head, "This method won't work."

"Hengdao River is the hinterland of the Sumo tribe. Although a small city has been built, there are not many troops, and naturally there are not many defensive equipment."

"How much kerosene can they store?"

"Even if we steal all of them, we may not be able to blow up the entire Hengdao River, right?"

"Then burn it!"

Cao Yuan smiled calmly, "If you want to destroy a city, the easiest way is to burn it or flood it."

"Since flooding the Hengdao River doesn't work, we can only use fire."

"Buy some kerosene and add the bombs we brought with us, and set up an ambush on the main street of Hengdao River where the garrison is stationed. Once the prince takes action, we will immediately ignite it."

"Even if we can't set the entire Hengdao River on fire, we can at least create a great deal of chaos, which will be of some help to the prince's actions."

Jin Yong immediately slammed the table and said, "That makes sense. Let's do as you say!"

……

The Malaysian sect.

Li Wang Qilin couldn't understand why his ambush in Dadou Mountain and Xiaochengzi did not pose a fatal threat to Zhishishili's army, but it also killed a lot of people.

However, the ratio of casualties on both sides was hard for Li Wang Qilin to believe, as it reached an astonishing one to two ratio.

Only one cavalryman can replace one Tang army.

Such casualties were truly unimaginable, and it was for this reason that he led his troops to station in Damazon.

But today, Zhishisili seemed to be crazy, arranging soldiers to attack Damazon again and again. What was he trying to do?
Although most of the troops under his command were soldiers from Goryeo, with such losses, wasn't he afraid that the Goryeo soldiers would rebel?

"General, the Tang army is about to attack the city again."

"Got it. Defend carefully and don't let them climb the city wall!"

Li Wang Qilin casually said something.

After all, most of the soldiers under his command were cavalry, and fighting outside the city was what they were good at, so defending the city seemed a bit cramped for them.

Fortunately, there are still many Korean soldiers and brave men assisting in the Malaysian sect.

"Report!"

"General, General Mo Chi was ambushed and died in Chengshanzi."

"what?"

Li Wang Qilin's face changed instantly. He grabbed the soldier who came to report and shouted angrily, "What on earth is going on?"

"General, we didn't expect that King Su Chen led the army to capture Chengshanzi first, and they changed the clothes of the defenders, so General Mo Chi didn't notice and led the army directly into the city."

"Afterwards, General Mo Chi and his men encountered an ambush. They fought hard to break out of the encirclement. When they notified everyone, they were already halfway into the city. The Tang army suddenly dropped countless bombs from the city wall, killing countless members of the clan..."

"Damn it!"

Li Wang Qilin pushed away the soldier in front of him with a ferocious look on his face.

You are so good, Su Chen, I really underestimated you!
He actually managed to capture Chengshanzi before Mo Chi arrived at Chengshanzi, and set a trap for him!
very good!
Li Wang Qilin's bloodshot eyes stole a glance at the Tang army outside the city.

No wonder Zhishi Sili suddenly went crazy and kept attacking Damai Sect. It turned out that he was trying to buy time for Su Chen and the others!

Are you trying to hold back my army so that Su Chen can go straight to Hengdao River and capture my leader? !

wishful thinking!

"All soldiers, listen to my command and follow me to withdraw from the Damasi Sect immediately!"

Li Wang Qilin's roar immediately stunned the soldiers who were fighting with the Tang army.

Quit the Malaysian sect immediately?

What is this going to do?
Are we going to hand over the Damasi Sect to the Tang army for nothing?

"General, what happened?"

Several generals who got the news rushed over.

Li Wang Qilin gnashed his teeth and said, "Su Chen has already taken Chengshanzi, and is very likely to kill his way to Hengdao River."

"what?"

"Damn it!"

"Hurry back to Hengdao River for support!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed color.

Once Chengshanzi was lost, their retreat was blocked. Even if they could take a detour back to Hengdao River, their food and supplies might not be able to hold on.

Second.

Su Chen has already captured Chengshanzi, and is very likely to launch an attack on Hengdaohe. If Hengdaohe doesn't understand, Su Chen is very likely to succeed! Once Hengdaohe is captured by Su Chen, then these people will really become dogs without a home!

As Liwang Qilin's order was issued, a large number of elite troops from the Sumo tribe withdrew from the battlefield.

The Goryeo defenders who were still fighting with the Tang army seemed a little confused. It was clearly a good time for fighting, so why did these Suomote soldiers run away?

Looking at the ferocious Tang army, these brave Goryeo defenders chose to run away at the first opportunity.

Li Wang Qilin has already escaped, so why should those of them who were captured to defend the city stay?
soon.

One by one, the Tang soldiers successfully climbed up the city wall.

After discovering something was wrong, he immediately informed Zhishisili of the news.

"Li Wang Qilin ran away?"

Zhishisili raised his brows.

The fighting between the two sides was fierce, why did Li Wang Qilin choose to escape?

unless……

"He got the news!"

Zhishisili's face looked serious. It must be that the news that Cheng Shanzi was captured by Su Chen was known by Liwang Qilin.

Otherwise, he would never have withdrawn from Damazon so quickly.

"Where is the cavalry captain?"

"The general is here!"

"You can lead the cavalry in the army to pursue Liwang Qilin and delay their return to the Sumo tribe as much as possible!"

"Yes!"

Watching the cavalry riding away in pursuit, Zhishisili glanced at the Damazon in front of him, who had become a hollow shell, and waved his hand.

Without the soldiers' obstruction, Damazon naturally fell into his hands easily.

Next, it depends on whether Duofa Yue can cooperate and stop Liwang Qilin from retreating back to the Sumo tribe.

If it succeeds, Li Wang Qilin and his more than 20,000 soldiers will have no way out!
……

"Report!"

"General, there are Tang cavalrymen behind us, chasing us."

"…Don't worry about them, just return to Su Mo Shui as soon as possible."

Li Wang Qilin gritted his teeth and looked back at the pursuers behind him.

He knew very well that these people were chasing them in order to delay them as long as possible!

Once it gets entangled, the Hengdao River will be in danger.

"Report!"

"General, the Tang army that attacked Yue has left the city and is blocking our way."

"what?"

The soul of Li Wang Qi Lin is surging.

Damn.

These damn bastards!
He besieged Duofa Yue for many days but was unable to conquer it, so he angrily cursed the defenders in the city, calling them a bunch of cowards and bastards!

However, they didn't expect that the Tang army, which had been hiding in its turtle shell, would come out of the city this time and block their way!
"Rush over!"

"Go as fast as you can, don't stop!"

"Yes!"

Twenty-seven thousand elite cavalry, like a long dragon, galloped along the official road under the leadership of Li Wang Qilin.

however.

Right in front of them, the defenders of Duofa Yue, who had been prepared for a long time, were now on high alert.

For this blocking attack, they not only brought all the kerosene in the city, but also the last box of bombs. They were determined to bite off a piece of flesh from Li Wang Qilin before he retreated back to the territory of the Su Mo tribe!

In the distance, dust and smoke were rolling, as if thousands of troops were galloping towards us.

this moment.

All the soldiers knew that Li Wang Qilin’s elite cavalry had arrived!
"Prepare!"

Give an order.

The Mohe cavalrymen, whose figures gradually became clearer, were at this moment targeted by countless arrows, bombs, and muskets.

"Everyone, don't save your ammunition, arrows, or kerosene, shoot them!!"

Whoosh whoosh!
Bang bang bang!
Boom boom boom!
Arrows, bullets, and bombs were thrown at Li Wang Qilin and the others without mercy.

Despite facing the enemy's attack, Li Wang Qilin still did not order a detour, because a detour would make them walk farther and take longer!
The most important thing now is to rush out of the blocking circle in front.

Only by rushing out can they make a comeback!

otherwise.

Even if they turned around and attacked Duofa Yue, they were just trapped beasts fighting hard.

"Go, go, go!"

Li Wang Qilin roared.

The soldiers around me kept falling down one by one, and the roar continued to explode in my ears.

Although they had made preparations in advance and blocked the ears of their horses, the fall of the cavalry in front posed a great obstacle to the cavalry behind.

"Go ahead, keep going!"

……

"Everyone, come on, shoot to death!"

Wang Duoyi, the general of Duofa Yue's defending army, kept yelling.

All the resentment that had been trapped by Li Wang Qilin over the past few days was finally vented at this moment.

But this is just the beginning.

Because they dug many holes on the official road!

Even if Li Wang Qilin and his subordinates crossed their line of defense, the pits behind would still cause them heavy losses!
As for whether the other party would stop and rush towards them...

Wang Duo had never thought about it.

In his opinion, even if he died in battle here this time, he would kill more than half of Li Wang Qilin's 30,000 elite cavalry and leave them here to be buried with him.

In fact, Li Wang Qilin really wanted to kill him.

But he restrained himself.

The death of a large number of soldiers was not for him to exchange for the heads of Wang Duo and others, nor for the city of Duofa Yue.

Instead, he broke through the encirclement and killed back the Su Mo tribe.

otherwise.

Those soldiers around him died in vain. It won’t be long before they meet on the way to meet Changshengtian!

Wang Duo watched helplessly as a Mohe cavalryman rushed past him without raising his bow to shoot, but only swinging his sword, as if he would give up if he missed. He immediately understood what was going on.

Li Wang Qilin wanted to run away and return to the Su Mo tribe as soon as possible.

"Cum for me!"

"Keep cumming!"

"Chase their asses and shoot them!"

There was no need for Wang Duoyi's reminder. The soldiers, who were already full of anger, beat the man even more fiercely when they saw this situation.

Especially those who ran slowly or were knocked down by their companions in front of them became the main targets.

As for those who run fast...

Although they missed the target, many people fell into the big pit!

In just a moment, both the people and the horses turned into a beehive.

"besides?"

"They left in batches?"

"Stop, stop, stop!"

"It's one of our own!"

When Wang Duo saw more cavalry appearing in the rear, he was about to order shooting, but he saw the flag.

It's one of our own!

"General Wang?"

"Hurry up and chase them! Li Wang Qilin has run away with his troops and doesn't dare to stay. I asked my brothers to show you the way so that you won't fall into a trap!"

"Good good!"
