Late Tang

Chapter 376

Iron Spear Wang Yanzhang leaped into the formation with his spear straightened out, his eyes were full of divine light, and he was full of majesty.Go straight to the white horse and silver gun Gao Si from a distance, shouting in his mouth: "That little white face don't leave and stay, meet me for a while!"

Liu Xun also rode together, holding a long spear and riding straight towards the horse.

Among the chaotic army, Baima Yinqiang saw most of the enemy army coming, and it came from the same direction as he had come before, and it looked like it was after the war, so he knew in his heart that his father had made a mistake.Shocked, the Guizhou white horse cavalry was even more panicked at this time.Previously, it was all due to a momentum that he was undefeated against thousands of people.But now people are tired and horses are exhausted. After fighting for a long time, there is no water and rice, and the horses are also poorly equipped.The arrival of the Zhendong Army at this time caused a chill in everyone's hearts. They were already extremely panicked and complained incessantly.

Gao Siji knew that no matter how hard it was to persevere at this time, he wanted to lead his troops to fight a bloody road, but he saw two horsemen charging towards him from the enemy line far away, and one of them, a black boy, named him by name. fight.I couldn't help being angry, "How dare you deceive each other like this!"

Seeing the low morale of the army, Gao Siji was furious and prepared to take these two generals, who were only fifteen or sixteen years old, but wearing school captain's armor, to boost morale and break out of the encirclement.Immediately, he shot down a Liaonan cavalry beside him.He yelled: "Someone is the successor of Gao Si with the white horse and silver gun in Guizhou. The person who came is going to be crazy!" Before he finished speaking, he had already rushed to kill the white horse under his crotch.

Iron Spear Wang Yanzhang yelled at Liu Xun who was next to him: "Brother Liu, let me deal with this little boy!" After saying that, he took off another gun, shot one in each hand, and pointed at Gao Sji with two guns.

Generally, most generals use lances, and few others use spears.Even with a gun, most of them take the light and agile route, such as sticking and picking.But Wang Yanzhang, an anomaly, uses iron spears, but he has a unique skill, that is, he can fight with two guns.With two iron guns in hand, they danced like two iron whips.

Wang Yanzhang, the Iron Spear, met Gao Siji, the White Horse Silver Spear, and the two fought each other.Although Gao Siji was only in his twenties, the Gao family was a wealthy frontier family in Guizhou. They had been generals for generations, and they were known as the generals of the Gao family in Guizhou.Gao Siji learned martial arts and tactics since he was a child, and he has been outstanding since he was a child.Li Maoxun raised an army to attack Youzhou, and Gao Siji led Gao's family Ding to go out with his father, and fought a beautiful battle for the first time.Then Li Ke attacked the Ningwu Army in Guizhou with troops and horses, and Gao Siji performed extremely well in that battle, and officially won the title of a white horse and silver flower.

But Wang Yanzhang's battle was just the first battle, but he was not afraid of the opponent at all.He was favored and valued by Li Jing, not only recruited him, a refugee who was about to starve to death, as a soldier, but also promoted him as a personal guard general.Wang Yanzhang's desire to make military exploits on the battlefield is not only a kindness to Li Jing, but also a proof to those subordinates who have not been convinced by him.Just now, he had already seen the bravery of this white-robed general, and now he was determined to make him stand out...

Two young generals, three long spears, meet opponents in chess, meet good talents in chess, it is indistinguishable to kill.

On the other side, after Liu Xun gave Wang Yanzhang the chance to face Gao Siji, Ti Yang directly faced Gao Siji's two brothers, Gao Sixiang and Gao Mian.Although these two people are not as famous as Gao Siji, they are not much different in terms of bravery.Liu Xun directly picked the second one, and danced like a dragon sailing out of the sea with his exquisite lance technique, and danced like a silver snake.

Li Jing was watching the battle under the commander-in-chief's banner. After seeing the three generals of the opponent fight for a long time, he was a little surprised that the two most stalwart young generals under his command actually fought inextricably.This Liu Xun and Wang Yanzhang can be said to be famous generals of the Five Generations, especially this Wang Yanzhang's innate bravery, his martial strength is still higher than that of Liu Xun, and he is also smart.They didn't know how to ride a horse when they were first recruited, but now they can charge on horseback.

"Who is fighting with Wang Tieqiang?" Li Jing looked around at the generals and asked.

Li Wei of Flying Eagle Camp replied: "This man must be the son of Gao Shunli, the general of Guizhou in Youzhou Town. Gao Siji, the former vanguard of the army, has extraordinary martial arts skills. , nicknamed White Horse and Silver Spear. The other two should be his two brothers. One is his brother Gao Sixiang, and the other is Gao Mian, the son of his uncle Gao Zhongwu."

Li Jing couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words "white horse and silver gun".Gao Siji, the white horse silver gun, was once evaluated as the first gun of the Five Dynasties by later generations.Not only is his martial arts extremely high, but what impresses him even more is that Gao Siji's family is the generals of the Gao family. Perhaps the Gao family is not very well-known now.But the Gao family runs through the entire five generations, and there are generals from generation to generation.Especially Gao Siji's great-grandson is Gao Qiong, the founding general of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Seven generations of the Gao family were crowned kings in five generations, more than [-] generals in the seven generations, and a queen who was known in history as "Yao and Shun among women".Throughout the Northern Song Dynasty, the Gao family reached its peak, and the Gao family generals were as famous as the Yang family generals and Zhe family generals.

At this time Li Jing couldn't help but want to subdue the Gao family, and even more liked the bravery of the three Gao brothers.He immediately ordered them to be surrounded and not to shoot arrows.

Wang Yanzhang and Liu Xun fought against the three brothers of the Gao family, and the fight was inextricable.Gao Siji's marksmanship from Gao's family is extremely powerful, and the shadows of the spear are full of shadows, like plum blossoms blooming.But Wang Yanzhang's iron spear was powerful and heavy, every hit was like a hammer.

After fighting for more than 100 rounds, Gao Siji was tired and exhausted, and gradually became exhausted. Wang Yanzhang's two iron spears were lifted like light, and he seemed to be holding two wooden sticks in his hands. However, when they hit the bright silver spears, Gao Siji was hit once. The mouth of the tiger was numb after the earthquake.

In the end, the white horse couldn't hold it up anymore, he knelt on his front hooves, and fell down. Gao Siji hurriedly took off the saddle and rolled off the horse to avoid being pinned down by the war horse.Wang Yanzhang came after him on horseback, thinking that he was not proficient in horseback riding, so he jumped off his horse to fight.

The two fought for dozens of rounds, at this time Li Jing's soldiers and horses had surrounded most of the white horse cavalry.

The rest wanted to escape, but the cavalry and horses of the Zhendong Army were full of strength, and they were all surrounded before they ran far.

At this time, Lin Wu, who was in charge of cleaning the battlefield by the river, arrived, and he brought a surprise to Li Jing.Brothers Gao Shunli and Gao Zhongwu were both washed downstream by the river, failed to escape, and were sent to prison by captives.Li Jing was overjoyed, and quickly pulled the two of them to the front of the battle, ordered Wang Yanzhang and others to stop fighting, and made Gao Siji and his cavalry surrender.

Brothers Gao Siji and others were already trapped in a tight siege, and they expected to escape, but unexpectedly saw their father and uncle being taken prisoner, finally they had no choice but to put down their weapons and surrendered.

Seeing the surrender of the Gao family general and the white horse cavalry, Li Jing personally untied Gao Shunli and Gao Zhongwu brothers, and pulled Gao Siji to his side to look carefully.Sure enough, he is worthy of being a white horse and a silver gun, and he is a handsome young man with a jade face.

After Gao's general surrendered, less than a thousand people in Gu'an City surrendered without a fight.Li Jing easily captured Gu'an.

Of the five generals of the Gao family, the two brothers Gao Shunli and Li Jing were all entrusted with the posts of soldiers and horse envoys, while the three brothers Gao Siji were all entrusted with the ten generals of the battalion just like Wang Yanzhang.

The former army brought by the Gao family originally had 1 people, 3000 infantry troops, and 2000 horse troops.However, at this time, more than [-] infantrymen were killed and seriously injured, and more than [-] people surrendered and were captured.There were [-] cavalry. Because they surrendered at the end, the loss was not big, but they were exhausted, and there were still nearly [-] cavalry.

Li Jing did not directly break up the more than 2000 surrendered troops, but reorganized the 1 men and horses of the two officers and guard battalions of the Zhendong Army, plus the [-] remaining soldiers and horses who were severely injured by the Liaonan soldiers. After the wounded were temporarily withdrawn, they were reorganized into two battalions of [-] horses, [-] cavalry, and [-] infantry.

After the Guizhou soldiers, the Liaonan soldiers, and the Zhendong Army were all disrupted and reorganized, a large number of officers and non-commissioned officers in the barracks took up middle-level military positions.In the two wings, Wang Pu and Gao Shunli from Duli Town each sent soldiers and horses, and separated the hatchbacks into the left front army and the right front army respectively.

Li Jing's reorganization order was issued, and the Liaonan soldiers were no longer as independent as they used to be. Not to mention the individual squadrons, even the individual battalion heads were gone.Now from gang to team, from battalion to compartment, all three soldiers and horses are integrated together.Although the Liaonan soldiers occupied nearly half of the troops, the Zhendong Army held a large number of middle-level positions among them, and with the support of the Guizhou soldiers, the situation of the Liaonan soldiers was not as good as before.

However, for the rest of the Liaonan soldiers' lives after the disaster, although Shi Shoucheng and other generals knew that Li Jing was taking advantage of the opportunity to reorganize, they had no choice.

The front-line reorganization was completed that night. Although it was a bit rushed, Li Jing didn't care too much.Zhendong Army has 1 horses, but only 2000 people were drawn out for reorganization.He still has [-] elites who remain pure, so he doesn't have to worry about combat effectiveness.

After resting all night, Li Jing did not continue to stay in Gu'an, but prepared to take advantage of the unpreparedness of Youzhou soldiers to continue to expand the results of the battle.

"I ordered General Wang Zhong in Huichang to divide 3000 troops to defend Gu'an. In addition, the [-] wounded soldiers will also stay in Gu'an." Li Jing immediately proposed to continue the attack after reorganizing that night. . "Right now, we have captured the former army from the Fifth Route Army in Youzhou, and this news will not reach Li Maoxun's ears immediately. Changzhou, where the former former army was stationed, is an empty city. I plan to wave it immediately. The soldiers captured Changzhou, and then directly attacked Li Maoxun's headquarters. As long as Li Maoxun can be beaten hard, then this battle will be over."

This battle in Youzhou needs to be fought, but Li Jing is not going to fight a long and protracted battle, but wants to end it quickly.To end this battle, the most critical thing is Li Maoxun.

Li Zhen and the others had no meaning to Li Jing's plan, and they discussed the final details that night.

Before dawn the next day, we cook at the fourth watch and set off at the fifth watch.

After the Zhendong Army left 2 wounded, because of the reorganization of the surrendered army, although only half of the Liaonan Army had set off at this time, the number of troops that finally sent out still reached [-] horses.The same number as when leaving Huichang.

2 horses followed the route of the Gao family's former army, and originally rushed to Changzhou.Arriving at the city of Changzhou in the afternoon of the next day, Gao Shunli volunteered to go to the city.Li Jing asked him to take the newly formed left front army and change into the original clothes, and went to call the city.When the Changzhou guards on the city saw Gao Shunli coming back, they were not suspicious and immediately opened the city gate.

The left front army rushed in and quickly captured the city gate, and then, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, before the people in the city understood what was going on, they had already wiped out the few guards in the city. Captured Changzhou City.
