Chapter 1824 Why did you rush towards your own people?
Early the next morning.
Yeon Gaesumun got up early. According to yesterday's discussion, today is the time for their Goguryeo army to take the lead in attacking Yangcheng.
But Yunkai Suwen is not a fool, and there is no way he would really let Otsuka Yoshio's plan go as he wished.
The wide river flows quietly, and the water is glowing with a faint silver light, as if telling an ominous omen of the coming. .??.
The woods on both sides are lush and green, like a green barrier, protecting this war-filled land.
On the river bank, Yeon Gaesumun's army was gathering.
The soldiers of Goguryeo wore various armors and held sharp swords in their hands. Their eyes were confused and they looked back from time to time.
Amidst the sound of war drums, they came to the other side of the river in an orderly manner, stood upright on the other side of the river, and confronted the Tang Dynasty border troops in front, preparing to cross this natural barrier and start a life-or-death battle.
At the forefront of the army, Yeon Gaeso Moon was wearing a battle robe and looking majestic, staring at the enemy on the other side.
There was no change in expression in his eyes, and other people around him couldn't tell what Yeon Gaesumun was thinking at this moment.
However, it can be vaguely noticed that Yeon Gaesumun's fingers tightly holding the sword are trembling slightly, showing the tension and anxiety in his heart.
In the sky, groups of war eagles circled and screamed shrilly, as if foreshadowing the coming bloody battle.
On the ground, the war horses neighed and scratched the ground with their iron hooves, showing their desire and uneasiness for war.
The entire battlefield was filled with a tense atmosphere, the air seemed to have solidified, and even the wind became extremely heavy.
On the other side of the river, Qin Huaiyu led the Tang Dynasty border troops and was staring at Yuengai Suwen across the river.
Qin Huaiyu was also extremely worried at this moment.
After all, the number of our own troops is still inferior to that of the opponent. Once the opponent really launches an attack on them without any scruples,
I'm afraid this city is not so easy to defend.
At this moment, Qin Huaiyu was thinking about what Zhao Chen told him before he came to Rangcheng, so that he would not have to worry about Yuan Gaisuwen and the others attacking Rangcheng.
Qin Huaiyu believed in Zhao Chen, but at the moment he was not very sure.
The attitude on the other side was almost as if they were ready to fight against Yangcheng at all costs.
Can you still defend it with these people under your command?
Qin Huaiyu looked ahead worriedly and couldn't help but squeeze the reins tightly in his hands.
…
Otsuka Yoshio led the Japanese soldiers under his command and followed the rear of Yeon Gaisumun's army.
Li Boming led his own army on another road, blocking the retreat direction of Yeon Gaesumun.
Obviously, Otsuka Yoshio was on guard against Yugaisumi leading his men to escape.
"Sir, will Yeon Gaesumun really defect?" A Japanese general looked at the Goguryeo army in front and suddenly asked Otsuka Yoshio next to him.
Otsuka Yoshio smiled and his eyes fell on the Goguryeo army in front.
If the Tang border army had not fought against Cheng Yaojin's army, he certainly believed that Yuan Gaisuwen would not defect.
Because defecting at that time, for Yeon Gaesumun, was tantamount to seeking death.
Not only will they send troops to pursue them, but the Tang Dynasty's border troops will also block all retreat routes for Yuengai Suwen's army.
But it's different now.
The border troops of the Tang Dynasty were too busy taking care of themselves that they had no time to support Yangcheng.
In other words, Yeon Gae So-moon had lost half of his worries when he ran away, plus he
Yesterday, it was clear that Yeon Gaeso-moon had an attitude of asking Yeon Gaeso-moon to lead people to be cannon fodder. How could Yeon Gaeso-moon actually do it?
Therefore, Otsuka Yoshio was very sure that Yuugaisumi would definitely lead someone to escape today.
And as long as Yeon Gaesumun does this, he will know how to lead the Japanese army in pursuit.
He has a terrifying weapon like the Sky-Hunting Cannon in his hand, which is definitely not something that Yeon Gae So-moon can compete with.
And he also gave Yeon Gaesumun a warning yesterday, that is, the hundred sky-blasting cannons sent to him were simply useless waste.
The purpose was to make Yeon Gaesumun think that he had the capital to defect.
And as long as Yeon Gae So-moon escapes, then...
"Of course." Otsuka Yoshio turned his head and looked at the Japanese general beside him with a smile.
The look on his face was gloomy and proud.
…
In the Baekje military formation, Li Boming looked at the Yeongaesomun military formation on the side, feeling uncontrollably worried in his heart.
Although Otsuka Yoshio told himself not to worry, Li Boming was not a fool.
If Yeon Gae So Moon really wanted to defect, he would either flee from the other side, or directly attack his own military formation.
As for Rangcheng in front, a large river blocked the way, and the Tang Dynasty border army was powerful, so Yuan Gaisuwen would not do this at all.
As for the Japanese military formation at the rear, as long as Yeon Gaeso-moon was not a fool, he would not get into trouble with this.
In this way, only one side and the other side are left.
But if Otsuka Yoshio wants to force Fuchizumi, then on the other side, Otsuka Yoshio will not be prepared in any way.
In this way, isn't this Baekje military formation the most dangerous place?
Li Boming was frightened and stared at Yuan Gaesuwen's army.
The formation looked at it for a long time, and then immediately turned to look at the general beside him: "I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'll leave this to your command!"
"General?" Before the general could react, he saw Li Boming turning his horse's head and walking towards the rear.
A group of Baekje soldiers were left behind who did not know what was going on.
…
Time passed slowly, and now all that could be heard was the flag being swept by the strong wind, and the deep breathing of the war horse.
Yeon Gaesumun stared at the river in front of him and saw Qin Huaiyu on the opposite side.
"Commander, Otsuka Yoshio sent people over and told us to attack Rangcheng immediately." The bodyguards around him ran over and conveyed Otsuka Yoshio's news to Yugaisubun.
Yeon Gaesumun did not respond, but slowly pulled out his weapon and raised it high above his head: "Kill!"
There was a sudden loud shout, and Qin Huaiyu on the other side of the river tightened his heart and immediately shouted: "Archers, prepare!"
The archers of the Tang Dynasty border army immediately bent their bows and set arrows, aiming at the Yuan Gaisu Wen army on the other side of the river.
As long as Yeon Gaesumun's army dared to take a step forward, tens of thousands of arrows would immediately fly towards them.
The ballistae stood upright in front of the army formation, staring covetously at the river in front of them.
However, a scene that surprised Qin Huaiyu appeared.
Yeon Gaesomun's army did not attack towards the river as he feared, but suddenly the entire army rushed towards one side of the Baekje army's formation.
"What are they doing?"
"what happens?"
"Is this some kind of conspiracy?"
"Why did they rush towards our own people?"
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty's frontier army were completely confused at this moment, looking blankly at the strange scene happening in front of them.
