Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

"Pfft~"

"puff!"

Su Dingfang's spear was already stained with blood, and at his feet lay densely packed enemy corpses.

"General Tang, stop being so violent!"

The defender of Huaiyuan City roared and rushed forward quickly with a big knife in hand.

Behind him, in addition to more than ten personal guards, there was also a dense group of soldiers following.

The defender of Huaiyuan City ran and yelled.

"Archers shoot at the ladders to prevent the Tang army from climbing up!"

Under his command, the Goguryeo archers on the city wall instantly changed direction and shot in the direction of the ladders.

Faced with the dense arrows, the Tang army climbing up the ladders was forced to retreat and hide.

Seeing that the brothers behind him could not come up, and the enemy was getting closer and closer, Su Dingfang shouted to the soldiers behind him:

"Form a formation to ward off the enemy and guard the ladder behind you!"

"Come with me, some men, to resist the enemy!"

Su Dingfang glared with his eyes wide open, then charged out with a gun in hand.

They had only fifty or so soldiers to climb up the city wall, while there were thousands of Goguryeo defenders on top.

Although the number of enemies and our side was extremely different, thanks to Su Dingfang's brave performance, more than 50 Tang soldiers still fearlessly launched a charge in the face of the dense Goguryeo soldiers.

They stood on the left and right, firmly resisting the rushing enemy troops.

"court death!"

When the Huaiyuan City defender saw that General Tang dared to rush over with a few men, a grim smile appeared on his face.

"clang!"

The broadsword in his hand collided head-on with Su Dingfang's spear.

"What a strength!"

The defender of Huaiyuan City took several steps back, his knuckles numbed by the shock.

"General Tang is fierce, let's attack together!"

"As long as we take down the Tang general, the rest of the Tang army won't be a problem!"

The defender of Huaiyuan City also showed no martial ethics and directly summoned his men to besiege Su Dingfang.

Although the military strength of the Huaiyuan City defenders was average, the number of people on their side was hundreds of times that of Su Dingfang's side.

After a round of charging, the defenders of Huaiyuan City killed Su Dingfang and several others and forced them to retreat.

On the left and right sides of the city wall, more and more Goguryeo soldiers rushed up.

After their desperate fight, Su Dingfang and his soldiers were instantly forced into a small area.

"Brothers, you must not retreat! We must guard the ladder behind us!"

Su Dingfang roared and swung the spear in his hand with all his strength.

The enemy troops were getting closer and closer, and Su Dingfang and others were already unable to resist.

At this critical moment, Xue Rengui finally climbed up the city wall.

"General Su, I'm here to help you!"

Xue Rengui roared and jumped down from the city wall holding his Fang Tian Hua Ji.

As the painted halberds swung wildly, countless Goguryeo soldiers fell one after another.

In just a few breaths, Xue Rengui had rushed to Su Dingfang.

The Fang Tian Huaji turned into a residual shadow and stabbed directly into the throat of the Huaiyuan City defender.

"Pfft~"

The Fang Tian Hua Ji pierced his throat, and then Xue Rengui raised both hands violently.

The body of the Huaiyuan City defender was lifted into the air.

"The enemy general is dead!"

"Surrender without killing!"

Xue Rengui roared.

Then Su Dingfang and a group of soldiers shouted together.

"The enemy general is dead!"

"The enemy general is dead!"

Hearing the roar of the Tang army, the Goguryeo soldiers on the city wall saw the body of their general in the light of the fire.

"The general is dead!"

The news of the death of the Huaiyuan City defender spread among the Huaiyuan City defenders in an instant.

Their originally high morale instantly became low because of the death of their commander.

At this moment, Xi Junmai, Qin Huaidao, Cheng Huailiang, Yuchi Huan and others took the lead and climbed up the city wall together.

Under their powerful charge, the Goguryeo army was killed and forced to retreat.

Xi Junmai shouted, "Kill the archers on both sides! Let the brothers behind charge forward!"

The Tang army that rushed up was like a pack of ferocious wolves, instantly wiping out the archers on both sides of the city wall.

Without the suppression of archers, more and more Tang troops climbed up the city wall.

A general in Huaiyuan City saw that the situation was hopeless, so he quickly shouted to the soldiers around him.

"retreat!"

"Quickly retreat back to the city!"

As he spoke, he carried his spear, turned around and squeezed into the crowd behind him.

The Goguryeo soldiers, who had no intention of fighting, turned around and fled when they saw their general leading the retreat.

This action of theirs completely exposed their backs to the Tang army.

Because the city wall was relatively narrow and the front was blocked by their own people, the Huaiyuan city defenders who wanted to escape could not squeeze through at all.

In desperation, the group had to jump off the several-meter-high city wall.

"what!"

"It hurts!"

Countless cries of pain were heard from below the inner city wall.

Because they had no leader and the defenders of Huaiyuan City were frightened by the Tang army, they could not organize any effective resistance except to flee.

By the time Hou Junji climbed up the city wall, all the enemy troops on the wall had been wiped out, and the ground was littered with their corpses.

Hou Junji hurried to the other side of the city wall, only to see the Tang army chasing and killing the Goguryeo defenders under the wall.

Among them, Xue Rengui, who was wearing a set of bright silver armor, and Xi Junmai, who was wearing a set of dark red armor, were the most eye-catching.

The two of them were like tigers, charging left and right among the enemy troops, leaving corpses everywhere they passed.

"These young people are so fierce!"

"Du He is such a freak that he was able to discover these two powerful generals."

Hou Junji rested his hands on the city wall, his heart filled with emotion.

Behind him, countless Tang troops rushed up.

They were like two steel torrents, instantly sweeping towards the Goguryeo defenders.

Under the command of Hou Junji, the troops of Xi Junmai, Cheng Huailiang and Yuchi Huan continued to pursue the fleeing Goguryeo soldiers.

He led his troops and attacked Huaiyuan City together with Su Dingfang's troops.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the Tang army easily broke through the gates of Huaiyuan City, which had few defenders.

After they entered the city, they killed anyone standing, regardless of whether they had weapons in their hands or not.

...

Liucheng.

In the dental tent.

Du He and Li Chengqian were drinking tea comfortably, without any panic on their faces.

The probability of failure of 20,000 well-equipped Tang troops attacking 10,000 Goguryeo soldiers was infinitely close to zero.

Suddenly, the shouting and screaming outside stopped abruptly.

Du He paused, then said softly: "Your Highness, the battle is over."

"Du He, do you think we won?"

"That's for sure."

Du He's tone was extremely certain.

Half an hour later.

Hou Junji, with a smile on his face, strode in with his head held high.

"Your Highness, our army has won a great victory in this battle!"

"The specific results of the battle will not be counted until tomorrow morning. Your Highness can rest assured."

"After we have dealt with the enemy's bodies, we will welcome you into Huaiyuan City tomorrow."

After the battle, in addition to counting the results, the soldiers' military exploits must also be recorded.

In addition, the enemy's bodies must be buried in pits, otherwise the rotting of the bodies will cause a plague.

Li Chengqian waved his hands excitedly and said, "Great! General Hou, you fought well in this battle!"
