On the other hand, Feng Xun was in his early twenties when he was young, and his progress during this period was obvious, especially his equestrian skills. Many of the horse riding masters who taught him at the time lamented that they were no longer there.
His skills are teachable. In addition, he wears chain armor, which Tang Ao spent a lot of money to build. Although it is still very heavy due to technical reasons, it is indeed very strong in terms of defense, and ordinary weapons are helpless.
.
Wearing strong armor is like wearing a bulletproof vest, giving you more confidence to rush into the battlefield during gun battles.
Yes, after feeling Li Yongqian's great power, Feng Xun was not surprised but happy. If he wanted to improve himself, he would have to undergo more training on the battlefield. If the opponent is a master, that would be even better.
It will be easier to break through between life and death.
With their own thoughts, the two of them fought together again in the next moment. They made the same movements without urging their horses to move, and they looked like a fight to the death where only one person could survive.
Ding dong~ding dong...
The halberd and the bright silver gun continued to collide in mid-air. When the sparks reconnected, the bodies of the two men were broken and trembling slightly. It was obvious that they were enduring the huge force coming from the other's weapons.
They are all long weapons, and there are no flashy moves. The competition is who can draw the gun faster, who has greater strength, and who can hold on longer.
This battle lasted for more than twenty rounds, and both of them had a layer of cold sweat on their foreheads. They fought very hard. But if you look carefully, you can still see that Feng Xun has already occupied a certain amount of ground.
Advantage.
Just now, when the two of them exchanged moves, they also exchanged injuries. At this moment, the advantage of the chain mail was fully demonstrated. When the halberd fell on it, it only made a mark.
On the other hand, although the armor on Li Yong's body was of good quality, due to the backward technology, the armor still could not withstand the huge force when faced with the bright silver gun. Several places had been deformed by the shooting, and blood began to overflow inside.
came out.
Li Yongqian was injured. He was already weak in physical strength and was too old. After the injury, the situation became even more dangerous. If he had not already been determined to die and had a strong will, he might not have been able to hold on long ago.
But a strong will has its limit. When Feng Xun used the method of exchanging injuries for injuries, he once again let the opponent's halberd hit his chainmail body. He also took the opportunity to stab the bright silver spear into
On the opponent's armor, the sharp tip of the spear broke through the defense and penetrated Li Yongqian's ribs.
The intense pain immediately spread throughout his body, and Li Yongqian's face turned pale in an instant, and cold sweat fell like rain.
"Go to hell." With one successful blow, Feng Xun gained the upper hand. After a loud shout, he exerted force with both hands, and the bright silver gun was pulled out. At the same time, a bloody arrow was brought out. At the same time, Li Yong's body was also shot in succession
He was startled, and then with a look of reluctance on his face and a look of relief, he fell down from his horse with a thump.
For a general to die on the battlefield, it may be a kind of destiny and a kind of prosperity.
Especially after seeing the powerful artillery of the Jizhou Army, Li Yongqian had no hope for the future. It was a relief in life to be able to die on the battlefield earlier and no longer have to worry.
Li Yongqian died, and the hundreds of soldiers he led were quickly killed by the brothers from the Shanshan Guard Tiger Camp.
With the death of their coach, the Goryeo Army, which originally had no will to resist, began to surrender on a large scale. After the first battle, the number of prisoners taken by the 50,000 Goryeo Army reached more than 43,000, and artillery bombing killed and wounded two people. More than a thousand people died in the battle, more than 3,000 people died in the battle, and less than 2,000 people actually escaped. The Jizhou Army won another great victory.
...
Woju City three days later.
In the palace of the King of Goryeo, Li Cunren changed his previous appearance of having everything under control and was furious.
Xinyi City was lost, and the 30,000-strong army was defeated without blocking it for even a day, leaving the west gate of the royal capital wide open and becoming a place where the enemy could attack at any time.
But this did not scare Li Cunren, the aloof King of Korea, at least on the surface. In his opinion, his opponent this time was just the rebel alliance composed of Jizhou Army and Park Deokfa, and his strength was still limited. Perhaps he would be afraid if it was Emperor Daqian who sent troops.
But the danger already existed. In order to deal with the difficult situation at hand, Li Cunren gave an order to General Li Yong, asking him to lead troops back for reinforcements. As long as hundreds of thousands of main troops returned, the crisis would be solved. He did not believe that with the Jizhou Army Can the tens of thousands of troops plus the remaining tens of thousands of rebels be able to defeat our own army of hundreds of thousands?
And all this self-confidence came to an end when Hudan ran into the city and came to him. Li Yong was defeated and killed before, and now not even 2,000 of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers escaped.
Such a tragic result left Li Cunren stunned on the spot. He quickly reacted and threw everything he could in front of all the courtiers. When he was done venting, he knelt down on the ground with a plop. He cried loudly and bitterly, "Has the heaven abandoned Korea?"
In the eyes of the ministers, no one tried to persuade the king to show such a rude behavior, and everyone felt a sense of sadness. Even the former general Li Yong was defeated and killed. Will their ending be any better?
Who can defeat the Jizhou Army?
Soon, due to Li Cunren's influence, the hall was filled with cries, and no one could see any hope.
"Okay, now that the defeat is a fact, let's think about what to do next." Prime Minister Li Yaoshi stood up, scolded the ministers, and raised an inevitable question, that is Where will Korea go in the future?
Without foreign aid, not even a grain of food can be transported into the city. Even if we hold on, how long can we hold on?
In other words, defeat is certain and has become an unstoppable trend. Even so, how to maintain their dignity and lives as much as possible in the inevitable defeat has become a crucial matter.
Li Cunren was also awakened by the Prime Minister's shout. He seemed to have thought of something and shouted to the ministers: "Where is Jin Dajiang?"
"I'm here." Jin Dajiang stood up in the crowd. If he looked carefully, he could still see his bitter look.
Obviously, calling Jin Dajiang out at this time means that he is going to have peace talks with the Jizhou Army. He is just a man who is inferior to others. Can the peace talks be successful? No one has any hope.
"The Prime Minister and Jin Aiqing stay, and the others should leave." Seeing Jin Dajiang, Li Cunren breathed a sigh of relief. At least he saw hope of living.
On the tenth day of August in the 22nd year of Hanchang, Jin Dajiang came out of Woju City and took the initiative to find King Tang Ao of Ji, which represented the surrender of King Li Cunren of Goryeo.
In a military tent two hundred miles away from the royal capital of Goryeo, Tang Ao met Jin Dajiang again. Compared with the last time, this man knelt down on his knees after entering the tent, showing off his defeated opponent in both attitude and behavior.
Everything one party should do is performed vividly.
Since it is a surrender, it can only be unconditional. Jin Dajiang must have been warned before coming. This time, his posture was very low, indicating that King Li Cunren of Goryeo was willing to open the gate of Woju City to dedicate the city, just to allow Li Cunren to surrender.
As long as his bloodline survives in the world.
Both Li Cunren and Li Yaoshi thought things through very clearly. For them, the strength of the Jizhou Army, which has mastered artillery and aerial bombing capabilities, is simply beyond what they can compare with. They may not even have the chance to surrender.
There was only one time. If they didn't act more decisively, when the Jizhou army came to the city, they would not even be able to save their lives.
"Well, Li Cunren is quite aware of current affairs." Tang Ao had a look of satisfaction on his face.
Tang Ao was satisfied, and Jin Dajiang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said: "But I don't know when His Highness Prince Ji will enter the city, and we are also prepared to welcome him."
"There is no need to enter the city. This time, this king was just invited to help by Pu Defa's appointment." Tang Ao waved his hand, he would not enter the capital of Goryeo to review the victors.
Don't look at Goryeo's defeat this time, but it is a sovereign country after all. Secretly, I don't know how many people are watching everything that happens here. If I really lead troops into the city, it will be equivalent to explaining to the world that this time he is the leader.
Wang annexed Goryeo, which was not a good signal for some people. It would only stimulate some people's nerves and create some variables.
Besides, when the war is going on like this, what difference does it make if you can enter the city or not? Goryeo under the leadership of Park Deok-po still has to act based on its own face. As long as the real benefits are achieved, the so-called situation will not go away.
What's the difference.
Naturally, Tang Ao did not enter the city because he considered the thoughts of some people. This is also the reason why the Jizhou Army is not strong enough. Once one day, the Jizhou Army becomes strong enough, then he will not have to consider other people's feelings.
.
Tang Ao was not going to enter the city, and he also said that the future of Korea would be handed over to Pu Defa. Jin Dajiang was immediately shocked after hearing this. When it comes to Tang Ao entering the city, considering some of the implications, perhaps Li Cunren's Li
The family will still survive, but once Park Defa is allowed to enter the city, will he allow the Li family to survive? I'm afraid they will definitely be exterminated.
"Your Highness King Ji, our King has said that we have prepared a lot of good things for you. What will you do with these things if you don't enter the city?" Jin Dajiang said with an expectant look on his face, and almost knelt down to hug him.
He touched Tang Ao's thigh and said, "Please, please go into the city."
"Oh? What are the many things?" Tang Ao smiled and asked with some interest.
At this time, Jin Dajiang dared not hide anything, so he said truthfully: "Our king has prepared twenty million taels of silver, hundreds of carts of fine furs, hundreds of century-old ginseng roots, and countless beauties.
