Chapter 1770 Battle of Cheorwon (Part 2)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Cheorwon City is a mountain city, surrounded by hilly areas and rugged roads.  Zhao Renji deployed a large number of ravines outside the city to block the advance of the German troops.

    The German army on the opposite side was actually quite well prepared for this attack.

    Because of the importance of the location of Cheorwon Fortress, for the people of Silla, this place was a must-win.  Jin Baijing was worried that the German army would be useless and could not break the city, so he gave the German army hundreds of crossbows and nearly a thousand pieces of armor.

    And the Goguryeo people are extremely good at mountain defense, but they also have some experience in mountain attack.

    In order to break the city, Gao Baobao gathered all the elites into the central army. The vanguard were all armored soldiers, and behind them were the covering soldiers holding crossbows and strong bows.

    This group of people lined up in a compact formation to attack Cheolwon City.

    The Sui army fired at the Goguryeo people in the city walls and ravines, but the Goguryeo people were not afraid of death and did not avoid the charge of arrows.  Soon the two sides started a fierce battle outside the city wall.

    Zhao Renji¡¯s estimate of the enemy¡¯s situation was inconsistent. He did not expect that the group of Goguryeo remnants on the opposite side would be so powerful.

    Seeing the soldiers reporting to the German army, one fell down and another rushed up.  If you get hit by a knife, you have to fight back even if you die.  In the ditch outside the city, there are corpses of both sides everywhere, and they all died fighting desperately.

    The brutality of the battle was beyond Zhao Renji's imagination. He didn't understand why the German army, which used to be like sheep, could be so strong.

    In fact, Zhao Renji didn¡¯t know that Gao Baobao had no way to retreat.

    Before this, there had been discussions within Silla. Many people believed that Silla had given Germany a lot of support, but Germany would be defeated in every battle against the Sui army and could not play its due role at all.  Since reporting to Germany cannot hold up the wall, it is better to cancel reporting to Germany and at least spend the money on our own army.

    Gao Baobao knew very well that the reason why Germany could exist was entirely because the Silla people needed them to contain the Sui army.  If the Silla people gave up on them, they would die in retribution to Germany.  No need for the Silla people to take action. As long as the Silla people open the border and allow the Sui army to enter, it will be over.

    So this time, in order to make the people of Silla believe that they still have the meaning of existence and that they can still do things for Silla, Gao Baobao had to work hard.

    The battle was fierce, and the German troops suffered heavy casualties. Those at the forefront were the Nationalist Army, all of whom were Gao Baobao's confidants. Gao Baobao watched the Nationalist Army fall one by one, and his heart was bleeding.

    "Your Majesty, no war is fought in one fell swoop. The casualties are huge today, so it is better to retreat temporarily."

    Many people came forward to persuade Gao Baobao to stop and repair it before starting.

    But Gao Baobao turned a deaf ear to this.  The husband has been vigorous for a long time, and then weakened and exhausted. Now that he retreats, it will be difficult to kill him again.  Now the Sui army was caught off guard. How could they still succeed when the Sui army had prepared a good defense?

    So he watched his subordinates charge forward one by one and then fall down. The whole battlefield was filled with blood. Gao Baobao was still as hard-hearted as iron and would never retreat.

    At this time, regardless of whether the German army could hold on or not, the Sui army really couldn't hold on anymore.

    The Sui army originally had only 3,000 people, and there were less than 1,000 people guarding the highlands and key passes outside the city.  Although the Sui army was geographically advantageous and its losses were far less than those suffered by the Germans, their numbers were still insufficient. Every time one was lost, Tiewuan City lost one point of strength.

    "Crazy, crazy! Are these Goguryeo people really desperate for their lives?" Zhao Renji's deputy general Pan Feng is also a veteran of the army for nine years. He has been on the battlefield many times, but this is the first time he has seen such crazy Goguryeo people.

    "General, we can't fight with them!"

    Zhao Renji has recovered from the shock, but looking at the Goguryeo troops under the city, his expression is a bit complicated.

    If Goguryeo¡¯s army was like this army, how could Goguryeo, which stood tall in the east of the sea, be destroyed?

    "It can't last long. The German army is not an iron man and can't last long." Zhao Renji didn't dare to retreat. Once the positions around Cheorwon City were lost, the entire Cheorwon City would become an empty shell. It was trapped in the isolated city and could not even break out of the siege.  May succeed.

    ¡°As Zhao Renji expected, the German offensive momentum soon declined.  After all, human physical strength is limited, and no one can carry the armor and attack for several hours without getting tired.

    Seeing that the German army's momentum was declining, the Sui army began to launch a counterattack, preparing to suppress the opponent.

    At this time, Gao Baobao, who was in front of the battle, could no longer sit still. He suddenly pulled out his sword and shouted to the guards beside him: "The survival of Goguryeo depends on today's battle. Follow me and charge."

    Gao Baobao wanted to lead the charge himself.

    Gao Yanwu, Xue Wuru and others on the side were all in a daze. After they woke up, they hurriedly stepped forward and started to fight.? Live high treasure.

    ¡°My Majesty, the King¡¯s ten thousand gold drives must not be allowed!¡±

    But Gao Baobao's eyes were red and he shouted loudly: "What a drive with ten thousand gold. If we lose today, even Goguryeo will be gone. What's the use of my life?"

    So Gao Baobao flicked his sleeves, shook off Gao Yanwu who was pulling him, and rushed forward.

    The general is so courageous that even Gao Baobao is so desperate. How can the officers and soldiers of the three armies not fight bravely to be the first?  As a result, the morale of the German army, which had been somewhat depressed, suddenly rose.

    The German soldiers shouted and rushed forward, over the ditch and over the hill, almost like an iron man, rushing forward one after another.

    Zhao Renji commanded the counterattack at the top of the city, and it went as he expected at first.  The German army consumed a lot of energy, and after three ax blows, its momentum gradually declined. But who would have thought that almost instantly, the morale of the German army would rise again, almost like magic.

    At this time, Pan Feng pointed to the large banner in the distance and said loudly: "General, that is the Lianjia Floating Turtle Flag."

    The people of Goguryeo claim to be the son of the Emperor of Heaven. According to legend, the ancestor of Goguryeo, King Zou Mou, his father was the Emperor of Heaven and his mother, He Bolang, was born through the dissection of an egg.  Later, King Zou Mou went south on a patrol and happened to encounter a flood when he passed by Fuyu. So King Zou Mou said to himself, "I am the son of Huangtian, and I will connect the floating turtles for me." After saying this, the floating turtles appeared, as expected.  Then he made a ferry and built his capital on the mountain of Hubenxicheng in Feiliu Valley.

    Although this is a legend concocted by Goguryeo King Gao Dande, everyone believes that the Goguryeo royal family also uses Lianjia Fugui as its flag.

    Hearing Pan Feng¡¯s words, Zhao Renji was startled and looked around. Sure enough, it was the King¡¯s Banner of Goguryeo.

    At this time, Zhao Renji was filled with shock. Since the former queen of her homeland, she had not heard of the King of Goguryeo who dared to charge into battle in many years.  If Gao Yuan and others in the past were as strong as Gao Baobao today, how could Goguryeo be destroyed? How could it be destroyed?

    "General Pan, give the order to retreat!"

    "General?"

    "The thieves have gained strength. If they continue to fight, they will not be attrition to the enemy. Our army cannot afford it."

    Pan Feng then obeyed the order and withdrew his troops.

    Zhao Renji stood at the top of the city, looking at the Goguryeo army outside the city, with a surge in his heart.  If the enemy army has such a commander, this battle may be difficult to win.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
