Chapter 597 Iron Horse Chain (Ninth)
"Your Majesty, no, the Turks sent their husband-in-law to surround the back."
When Li Jing, the governor of Mayi County, saw his superior Wang Rengong and his brothers go out, the Turks immediately saw the danger.
"Wang Rengong and the others should not be afraid of the Turkic light cavalry, right?" Yu Shiki said.
Forty-six-year-old Li Jing is handsome and tall, and he is about the same age as the emperor.
As the chief of Mayi County and an official in charge of military affairs, Li Jing's ability to cavalry and shoot is naturally not bad. In fact, Li Jing is also good at strategy and is good at training troops. He was also from the Guanlong general, and his uncle was Han Qinhu, one of the four famous generals in the early Sui Dynasty.
Li Jing's grandfather Li Chongyi was once the governor of Yinzhou and was granted the title of Duke of Yongkang County. His father Li Quan served in the Sui Dynasty and became the prefect of Zhao County.
He was influenced by his family since he was a child, had long been civil and military talents, and was very ambitious. He even told his father that a real man should establish achievements and seek wealth, so why should he be a scholar?
When he was very young, he could talk about military affairs with his uncle, and even let his uncle, a famous general, caressed his head and admired him for discussing Sun Wu and Wu Qi's skills with him.
At the age of sixteen, Li Jing was already appointed as the Angong Cao of Changxian County. Later, he was the direct chief of the hall and the official of the Ministry of Veterans. It can be said that his career was still very smooth, and he was also famous among the ministers and ministers when he was in the capital. Niu Hong, the Minister of Personnel, also praised him for his talent as a king and a minister.
Yang Su once stroked the bed and said to him, "You will eventually reach this position." Even his maid, Hong Fu Nu, elopes Li Jing. Yang Su didn't care, and gave her to Li Jing instead, creating a good story."
However, Li Jing never encountered the opportunity to lead the army to fight, so although he had the strategy in mind, he had no chance to play it. He followed the pace of following the steps and served as the county magistrate in his forties.
The first time he encountered a war, hundreds of thousands of Turkic people came overwhelmingly. He was still by the emperor at that time and had no chance to resist, but Mayi City was destroyed.
"Your Majesty, although the armored cavalry can destroy it, it only has one rushing power. If it is surrounded by the Turkic wolf cavalry after the charge, it may be wiped out. I request to lead a light cavalry out of the city to pick up the prefect of the king and return to the city!"
Pei Shiju reminded the emperor.
"It is very dangerous to leave the city now. The Turks have been prepared for it. If they send troops out, they may be surrounded again."
What I mean is that it is better to look at the fate of Wang Rengong and others. It is best to come back if you break through. There is no way to go back. There is no need to send troops out to avoid adding fuel to it.
"Your Majesty, I only need a thousand light horses!" Li Jing asked for an order again.
The emperor hesitated a little, looked at Li Jing, and said for a long time, "Captain Li, can you do it?"
"I can."
"Okay, I'll give you a thousand light riders."
The city gate opened again.
Li Jing, with a phoenix-winged helmet on his head, a horse spear in his hand, and a steel whip on his back, led a thousand light cavalry to suddenly come out of the city.
"rush!"
The wind whistled above the head, and the horse neighed beside the side.
Ru Lin's swords and guns shine.
I don’t know how many arrows were inserted into Yuchi Gong’s armor and cloak. He was like a hedgehog, and even his mount was hit by many arrows, but he was still rushing to kill.
Most of the arrows did not hurt the people, and some of them only injured some flesh and didn't penetrate deep.
His horse spear had long been lost in the melee, and even the steel whip was hit with blood.
He took off several spears in the charge, but the spear was not as good as a horse spear, and he always broke every time he rushed.
The bright red blood oozed out from the armor leaves again, but he didn't realize it.
Through the narrow slit of the armored eye, his eyes tightly locked on the Turks in front of him.
The crazy and fearless aura made the Turks frightened. Although the Turks were fighting on horseback and nomadic people, compared with the elite soldiers of the Great Sui Mansion who fought for many years, the Turks were too weak.
"I can beat ten, come on!"
Fighting ten is the oral words that the heavy cavalry have always spoken.
The Fuli Wolf Rider was tightly attached to the back, constantly pulling bows and shooting arrows. As the guards of the Khan, these Fuli Wolf Riders were the best archers, and their archery skills were even more superb.
These arrows are also heavy arrows, and some people even immerse the arrows in horse manure and wolf urine, making the arrows poisonous. They bite tightly behind the heavy rider, keep shooting arrows, and from time to time, heavy rider war horses fell to the ground by arrows.
But no one cared about the heavy cavalry and continued to charge forward and swept away all the Turks under the city wall carrying equipment to attack the city.
Li Jing led his light cavalry to attack like a whirlwind.
His eyes were directly aimed at the wolf riders.
He is at the forefront of the Light Cavalry Array and takes the lead.
He tried his best to destroy his mount and thrust his horse spear directly to the wolf cavalry.
The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind.
The light cavalry led by Li Jing did not use the roaming and riding technique, but directly sprinted, rushed into their butts, and stabbed them hard.
Horse lance and spear.
Iron armor and horizontal knife.
The fierce wolf cavalry of Fuli was constantly falling off the horse under their sudden impact.
Wang Rengong led the heavy cavalry to the end and swept the city into nothing.
The war horse slowly turned around.
Wang Rengong reorganized the team.
"Can you still rush again?"
"able!"
Liu Wuzhou roared.
"Hahaha, I am worthy of being my Han warrior."
Yuchi Gong also came up, "Governor, we have lost a lot of brothers, and the horse can't rush."
"Then take out the chain, run five horses in a row, rush for a while, and fight back to the city."
When Wang Rengong and his team rushed to kill, the people and horses used iron chains to raise their troops, so that the knights would not be dismissed even if they died in battle. Now, Wang Rengong saw that the war horses were tired, so he used this more ruthless move to form a five-horse chain.
The five horses are connected by iron chains and charge side by side, so that all enemies in front of the five horses will be knocked down and pulled.
However, this tactic is also very dangerous. If one horse dies, if the lock is not unlocked in time, it may lead to other war horses.
But at this time, Wang Rengong couldn't take care of it.
If you can't kill back today, then kill a few more Turks!
Five horse series.
Some knights on the backs of war horses had long been dead, but they were still locked by iron chains and were always carried by war horses.
There were two dead bodies among the five horses of Yuchi Gong. He glanced at the brothers who died in battle and said, "I will take you back to the city!" and locked their horses.
"kill!"
The heavy cavalry charged again, this time it was not just a connection between men and horses, but a series of five cavalry.
In the distance, Li Jing had already rushed over with a thousand light cavalry.
He rode his horse and rushed to the front of the heavy cavalry, "I will open the way for you, come with me!"
Shibi Khan frantically mobilized cavalry under the golden wolf flag, trying to surround and kill all the two Sui troops who dared to leave the city.
"kill!"
The light cavalry turned around and opened the way for the heavy cavalry brothers.
The heavy cavalry behind them ran a series of five horses and rushed all the way.
The Turks who stood in front of them were like an avalanche.
The rain of arrows shot up in the sky, but the heavy cavalry still moved forward.
Finally, they rushed through several miles and returned to the city.
At this time, thousands of infantry soldiers were sent out of the city to form a formation, using shield walls, gun arrays, bows and crossbows to intercept the Turks' pursuit, and to support the Sui cavalry into the city.
As soon as Wang Rengong entered the city, he untied the chain and fell under the horse.
Liu Wuzhou and Yuchi Gong hurriedly stepped forward and helped them up, and found that the old boss was covered in blood, seriously injured, and had lost too much blood and was in a coma.
Li Jing was the last person to enter the city, so he jumped off and asked immediately.
"How about Wang Shuai?"
