This night was extraordinary, at least Shi Chen thought so. If he could march overnight and rush to Yuexi Land, there might be another ending.
But now Shi Chen is opposed to his subordinates' requests for an overnight march and the formation of a vanguard cavalry to explore the road. He believed that the Sui army's harassment of them along the way was precisely a manifestation of their powerlessness. Shi Chen has always commanded the elite of the Yuan family army, and has never fought against the Sui army, so he has no doubts about the combat effectiveness of his troops.
As expected, the Sui army seemed to find that their harassment had no effect on Goguryeo, so they gave up the harassment themselves. It only damaged roads and bridges along the way, continuing to slow down Goguryeo's progress.
When Shi Chen found out, he proudly laughed at the Sui army's powerlessness with his subordinates.
Early the next morning, the army broke out of camp and headed north. In the afternoon of that day, Shi Chen, who had arrived late, finally ran into the encirclement of the Sui army.
There are no serious city walls in Yuexi, just the ruins of a group of abandoned villages. Huang Mingxin ordered people to build multiple trenches here and build earth walls one after another. He used these old earth walls to build a simple defense. To the south of Yuexi is the east-west Pan River, which is a tributary of Liao River.
Huang Mingxin ordered Meng Jinyi to lead a group of soldiers to hide behind the fortifications, and ordered Mai Zhongcai to lead the cavalry to ambush in the mountains and forests on both sides, while Huang Mingxin led his troops to hide in the grass on the other side of the river.
The Goguryeo army came to Panhe in a big way and wanted to cross the river.
And Huang Mingxin waited until the Goguryeo army had not yet reached the shore, and suddenly launched an attack. Mai Mengcai led the cavalry into the back of the Goguryeo army, while Huang Mingxin led the infantry with crossbows into the shore and fired towards the other side. Countless rockets were fired at the temporary bamboo rafts built by the Goguryeo people, setting them on fire.
Suddenly, smoke and dust billowed above the river, and the Goguryeo army suffered heavy casualties.
Seeing that he was frustrated in crossing the river, Shi Chen did not panic and immediately mobilized his troops in batches to go to the river bank. When fighting across the river, it is most taboo to fight alone, so Shi Chen prepared to use the numerical advantage to swamp the ambushed Sui army.
The river is not wide, so crossing it at this time is not too difficult. The Sui army was unable to completely block the long Panhe River, and soon the Goguryeo army landed ashore.
The opponent outflanked the Sui army from the flank, preparing to encircle the Sui army on the shore.
Seeing this, Huang Mingxin immediately ordered a retreat.
The Sui army jumped back into the trench and headed towards the earth wall. The Goguryeo troops were in hot pursuit and surrounded them one after another. At this time, behind the earthen wall, countless Sui troops suddenly appeared, holding bows and crossbows, and fired at the Goguryeo army. The overwhelming arrows were like raindrops, hitting the Goguryeo soldiers, causing corpses to cover the entire river beach
The Sui army tried its best to block the Goguryeo army, and the Goguryeo army also tried its best to attack forward.
At this time, seeing that the Sui army was invincible and brave, Shi Chen's barbarism started to rise again. He personally held a spear and led the death squad to charge. At one point, he hit the earth wall and fought back and forth with the Sui army on the earth wall.
Shi Chen was a brave man. Anyone who stood in the way on the earthen wall would be swept away by him with his spear. Soon he created a gap, and then continued to rush in along the gap.
At this time, Huang Mingxin saw this and stepped forward to stop him personally, but Shi Chen was so brave that he could not withstand the enemy for a while. However, Huang Mingxin had a crossbow unit around him for emergency response. Shi Chen was forced to retreat by the crossbow unit, and all his personal guards died in the battle, so he had to retreat.
This battle lasted until evening, with all the Sui army's front trenches lost and more than half of the Goguryeo army crossing the river. Both sides used everything at their disposal to carry out attacks and counter-attacks. Even the remains of fallen soldiers became fortifications blocking the enemy's advance.
Until nightfall, the Sui army held on to the earthen wall. Shi Chen, who was blocked from attacking, saw the Sui army's constant intrusions and was worried that the camp would be blown up, so he had to order all the troops to repair and fight again.
Today's battle finally made Shi Chen feel the tenacity of the Sui army.
Early on the next morning, Goguryeo continued to attack. However, in the face of the Sui army's tenacious resistance, Shi Chen led the blood-thirsty soldiers to attack for a day. The whole Yuexi land had been turned into a flesh and blood mill, but they were unable to gain any major victory. Progress. The furious Shi Chen faced the tattered earth wall opposite, full of resentment but somewhat powerless.
In the evening, Yuan Taizuo, who had escaped the pursuit of the Sui army in Shenyang, finally arrived with his army. In fact, he was only more than a day later than Shi Chen.
After Yuan Taizuo arrived at Yuexi, he took over the war.
The Sui army's blockade did not exceed Yuan Taizuo's expectation, but he did not know whether the Sui army's desperate blockade was to buy time to break through Kaiyuan, or to buy time for reinforcements to arrive.
Yuan Taizuo knew the situation in Kaiyuan very well. If Meilong's reinforcements did not arrive in Kaiyuan, thenThe original is almost undefended.
Yuan Taizuo also knew very well that if the Sui army blocked them here, whether Kaiyuan City was destroyed or the Sui army's reinforcements arrived, their end would not be good.
Therefore, Yuan Taizuo decided to conquer Yuexi at all costs.
Yuan Taizuo ordered Shi Chen and General Zhao Nanxiang to lead some troops to attack from both wings in a pincer attack. He led the main force to attack the front of the Sui army's defense. Three groups attacked at the same time to open the gap.
It started to rain heavily during the night, and it didn¡¯t stop until early the next morning. The heavy rain prevented bows and arrows from functioning, and the two sides could only engage in hand-to-hand combat.
In the morning, the heavy rain subsided a little, and the Goguryeo army launched an attack. The Sui army's bows and arrows could not be used, so they had to use more than ten small catapults as long-range weapons.
The Goguryeo people braved the bombardment of stone bullets, rushed to the earth wall, and climbed up. The two sides fought back and forth on the earth wall, and the rain mixed with blood and formed small streams.
Throughout the morning, the Sui army repelled five attacks by the Goguryeo people, making the enemy's attempts in vain and suffering heavy casualties.
Facing the Yuexi area that could not be conquered for a long time, both Yuan Taizuo and Shi Chen were anxious, because no one knew when the Sui army's reinforcements would arrive.
In the afternoon, Shi Chen did not give up and summoned the elite to lecture on the river beach.
¡°Brothers, our army is elite and capable of many battles. How can the small Sui army stop us?
We follow Mo Lizhi and have a tradition of defeating enemies. When we first attacked Silla, we defeated thirteen cities in one go; when we attacked the Mohe people, we captured all their bases; and when we attacked Baekje, we also defeated two cities in Weirye. In this case, it shows that our army has rich experience in breaking cities, and as for the earthen fence in front of us, it is no problem. "
The senior general, who was a stonemason, added: "The Sui army is trapped in this earthen wall and refuses to retreat. It is God who wants us to annihilate them all. God helps me."
After the training, Shi Chen personally led the death squads to charge.
At this time, the rain stopped, and the Sui army's crossbows roared past, killing dozens of people in succession. Shi Chen charged forward and was also shot by a crossbow. The death squads suffered numerous casualties during the charge, and Shi Chen had no choice but to retreat. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
