Chapter 324: Attack from both sides


Gao Wei took Luxiali City and annihilated Jin Sitong's 70,000 reinforcements, Gao Wei thought that all the Goryeo troops who went south to rescue Xijing had been annihilated by himself, but Gao Wei did not know that there was an elite Goryeo army that had made a strategic detour from the sea, and this elite Goryeo army was a reinforcement led by Yiwen Zhide himself.

"General," said a general of the Navy, walking up behind Yiwenzhide.

Yiwen Zhide asked the general of the water division: "Where are we now, how far are we from Xijing?"

"We'll be there in three hours, just in time for daybreak."

The general of the water division said to Yiwen Zhide.

Yiwen Zhide pondered for a while and said: "The ship of the sailor is ordered to stop advancing fifty miles away from Xijing, and all the personnel go ashore for a short rest for a while, and then go south. ” "General, Xijing is in danger at present, and our army should rush to Xijing as soon as possible."

The general said anxiously.

"It is precisely because Xijing is in danger that we can't mess up, our army has been floating at sea for three days, and the brothers are exhausted.

Yiwenzhide said with anger in his eyes.

"Yes, the Admiral understands."

The general of the sailor immediately received the order.

On the other side, Li Bingchang and Li Wu didn't know that the danger was approaching them step by step, and after the sweeps in the past few days, within the range of three hundred miles around Xijing, basically everything was robbed by Li Bingchang, Li Wu and Xiao Jinghuan, and Goryeo Xijing completely became a lonely city; At this time, Li Bingchang, Li Wu and Xiao Jinghuan were drinking and eating meat happily in the big tent of the Chinese army, through this period of contact, Xiao Jinghuan can be said to admire Li Bingchang and Li Wu, the two brothers, and everyone is young and has a common language.

"Brother, this Xijing City is defended like an iron bucket by the Koreans, we have been here for so long, what should we do next" Li Wu took a sip of wine and asked Li Bingchang.

Li Bingchang said to the two: "Recently, I always have an ominous premonition, I always feel that something is going to happen, and in the past two days, I have told my brothers to step up patrols, and Jing Huan will leave this matter to you." ” "Your Highness, don't worry, when did I Xiao Jinghuan make a mistake in doing things," Xiao Jinghuan assured Li Bingchang.

Li Bingchang said to Li Wu again: "Second brother, this Jiangbei brother will be handed over to you, this is the retreat of my army, you must guard your brother."

"Brother, don't worry, I can't lose it in Jiangbei."

Li Wu said to Li Bingchang.

The next day, Li Bingchang's life was still the same, at this time the coalition cavalry had a new deployment, after sweeping around Xijing, Li Bingchang transferred most of the main force to the south of the Datong River, leaving only 3,000 cavalry in the north of the river, these 3,000 cavalry were all Boliao cavalry commanded by Li Wu, the main task of these 3,000 cavalry was to guard against the back road, and protect the captured materials and materials; As for the remaining more than 10,000 cavalry, they are on the south bank of the Datong River, commanded by Li Bingchang and Xiao Tzu Rin, and the main task is to besiege Goryeo Xijing.

At this time, Li Bingchang did not know that fifty miles west of Xijing, a Goryeo naval fleet had already docked, and the 10,000 elites led by Yiwen Zhide had begun to board the case one after another, fifty miles was not far for the cavalry, and it was not very far for the foot soldiers, although it had been floating on the sea for three days, but this Goryeo army was still in good spirits and had a certain combat effectiveness.

"The order is that all sailors of the Marine's fleet go ashore."

Yiwen Zhide immediately issued a military order.

Now for Yiwen Zhide, what is less in his hands is the army, as long as there are enough soldiers and horses, Yiwen Zhide is confident to defeat the Xia army, although Yiwen Zhide does not know who the commander of the enemy army is, but Yiwen Zhide knows that he is now in the dark, and the enemy only has one chance to defeat the enemy army in Ming, so the first attack is naturally the more troops gathered, the better. 10,000 elites plus sailors, Yiwen Zhide barely gathered more than 15,000 people, Yiwen Zhide led this support army did not approach Xijing, but went south, in order to prevent being discovered by the enemy, Yiwen Zhide was cautious along the way; On the other hand, Yiwen Zhide sent his henchmen to infiltrate Xijing City to contact Wang Huan who was guarding Xijing, and Yiwen Zhide planned to unite the defenders in the city and launch a night attack on the enemy army with an absolute superiority of troops, so as to win a decisive battle, even if it could not be said that the enemy army was completely destroyed, it should be severely damaged to temporarily ensure the safety of Xijing.

I have to say that Yiwen Zhide's idea is very good, and the implementation was very smooth at the beginning, Yiwen Zhide led 15,000 troops to return to the south of Li Bing's permanent garrison camp in a covert detour, in order to maintain the strong combat effectiveness of the army, Yiwen Zhide immediately ordered the army to repair after arriving at the predetermined location, and at the same time did not allow to bury the pot to cook, only allowed to eat some cold food, fortunately it is not winter now, otherwise the Goryeo army will be miserable; When Yiwen Zhide was ready, Wang Huan in the city also gathered all the troops.

Late at night, everything is still the same as usual, Li Bingchang doesn't know that he has fallen into a crisis, tonight I don't know why Li Bingchang's right eyelid keeps jumping, and he can't sleep, Li Bingchang is sitting alone in the big tent of the Chinese army and is thinking about what to do next; Although Li Bingchang achieved an unprecedented victory, Li Bingchang did not relax in the hinterland of Goryeo, and the defense of the coalition army was still very tight.

Ten miles away from the camp, a summer army patrol was patrolling, and the head of the sentry cavalry suddenly felt that something was not right, as a veteran of the battlefield, the chief immediately realized that the big thing was not good, and the chief said to the people around him: "It's not good, listen to the voice, the enemy army must have at least more than 10,000 people, hurry up and send a signal to your highness." ” "Yes."

A sentry immediately took out a bamboo pipe from his arms and then flicked it into the sky, only to hear a red signal flare rising from the sky, and the signal flare that rose into the air was immediately seen by the Xia army guarding the camp, and the sound of the signal flare immediately startled Li Bingchang, who had not rested.

Li Bingchang walked out of the big tent and asked, "What's the matter?"

An adjutant general came to Li Bingchang's side and said, "Your Highness, there is an enemy attack on the camp and it has been discovered by our patrol. ” "In that direction," Li Bingchang asked the lieutenant general.

"The flare is coming from the west."

The adjutant replied.

Li Bingchang frowned and said: "This shouldn't be, the west is Xijing of Goryeo, for so long, I didn't attack the camp early or late, why did I attack the camp today." ” "Your Highness, I can't take care of so much now, hurry up and order the whole army to assemble," the adjutant general said to Li Bingchang; "It just so happens that we took advantage of this opportunity to annihilate all the Goryeo troops who came to attack the camp, and after dawn, this Goryeo Xijing City will be ours."

Li Bingchang nodded and said, "That's right, blow the horn and order the whole army to assemble to meet the Goryeo army." ” "Yes, the last general commands."

The lieutenant immediately took the order and left.

Under the leadership of Li Bingchang, more than 10,000 allied cavalry quickly assembled, and murderously went straight west to the Goryeo army that came out of Xijing City and killed it.
