Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

And the small teams of about [-] cavalry distributed by the main force are distributed among all the official roads and places near the official roads between each city and Liaodong City.

This period is not like there are so many roads to walk in later generations, except for the main official road, there are some small roads.And these small roads have been told by villagers that it can be said that almost all roads are blocked.

Although it is impossible to destroy more supply troops of the enemy, hindering the enemy's scouts and communication between the two places is also a very important strategic means in ancient times, especially the outstanding senior generals in Goguryeo are not many.

The area of ​​Goguryeo itself is not very big, 8 cavalry soldiers spread over a land that is only about half the size of Liaoning in later generations, almost [-] square kilometers of land, it can be said that this density is already very high.

There are about seventy cavalry squads, and each cavalry squad is responsible for an area of ​​only 30 square kilometers on average, that is to say, a rectangle about 40 kilometers wide and [-] kilometers long.

This will also remove a large number of primitive mountainous areas, cities, and many villages in this area that no one can reach.

This means that the area that each cavalry squad is responsible for can run back and forth almost every day. With such a high density, if Goguryeo does not send out a large number of troops to wipe out the situation, it can be said that the scouts will never even think about contacting the front line unless he can fly over.

Even if they were lucky enough to bypass so many cavalry and reach Liaodong City, these scouts would have to return to Pyongyang or Black Bone City on the Yalu River. The probability of this is almost zero.

Dozens of hundreds of scouting teams were released continuously, but they didn't come back after seven or eight days, and Yuan Gai Suwen knew that something was wrong.

Yuan Gai Suwen's expression also became more serious than ever, and he felt troublesome.

Because the [-] cavalrymen... are too difficult to deal with.

This is [-] generations of armored cavalry!Although they were not heavy cavalry in the true sense, according to the soldiers who fled back, the horses on these cavalry were not fully protected, but were protected by armor in key areas, and most areas were still unprotected.

But the knights on horseback were heavy armored cavalry, all equipped with bows and arrows, long knives, etc., and they even seemed to see the military crossbow carried by the opponent.

With such a force configuration, if you also send heavy cavalry to chase, you will not be able to catch up at all, but if you send light cavalry with faster maneuvering speed, you will not be able to stop the opponent.

Just the arrows in the opponent's hand will cause heavy losses to the light cavalry they sent out!Although Yu Ling's record in the first line of Silla was stable, Yu Ling did not hide the situation on the battlefield.

Yuan Gai Suwen had seen the arrows shot by Datang... The three-edged armor-piercing iron arrows were simply devastating to the light cavalry!The point is that among their light cavalry, the number of control strings is far lower than that of Datang, because the [-] cavalry of Datang were transferred from Hanhai Prefecture!

That fucking is the home of the Turkic people. At its peak, Turkic control strings of 40 could not win the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that at least half of the Turkic people have become soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!

And the bows and arrows in their hands have been replaced by Datang's strong bows, how can they fight?

Yuan Gai Suwen felt a sense of restraint, and the [-] cavalrymen directly hit them in the seven inches!

It's too difficult to deal with. If the two sides face a decisive battle, does Goguryeo have the means to limit the [-] heavy cavalry?have!Goguryeo can also collect [-] heavy cavalry now. The problem is that he has already felt from the opponent's actions that the opponent will not fight them at all.

But now he had to try anyway.

"Come here, send an order." Yuan Gai Suwen said loudly.

The generals in this meeting room immediately stood up.

"Order, General Hu Jin of Black Bone City (Houfeng City) leads [-] heavy cavalry and [-] light cavalry out of the city to destroy the enemy's heavy cavalry, but the pursuit is not allowed to go too far. If the pursuit is close to a hundred miles, it will be withdrawn directly." Yuan Gai Su Wenshen He took a breath and gave the order.

He was going to try anyway, but he couldn't lose the ten thousand cavalry.So he didn't allow them to pursue too deep. Once the enemy quickly assembled, [-] heavy cavalry surrounded the [-] cavalry, and it would be good if they could escape one-third of the cavalry.

After Yuangai Suwen gave the order, a group of cavalry quickly set off from Pyongyang and headed straight for Black Bone City at an extremely fast speed.

At this moment, Li Shiji, who was far away near Liaodong City, was a little surprised to find that the impact of the [-] cavalry was far greater than what they imagined!

In particular, the connection between the front line of Liaodong City and the rear of Goguryeo was cut off, which meant that they didn't even have to worry about attacking.

When the generals in these cities cannot get in touch with the rear, they will inevitably be suspicious. These people are not like them in their hands. There is a way of delivering messages that can be reached instantly from hundreds of miles away.

That's right, for the first time, the [-] cavalry of Qibi Heli carried a portable radio transmission device, which can generate electricity through a hand-operated generator or a foot-operated generator.

In fact, because of the built-in modern batteries in these wireless transmission devices, as long as they are not powered on for a long time, but only maintain communication at a fixed time, they can even be used for a month when they are fully charged.

"Order all the troops to suspend the achievements and give our enemies a little shock first." Li Shiji thought for a while and issued a brand new order.

According to Li Shiji's previous preparations, when they arrived at the first line of defense in Liaodong City, they would immediately attack, first pretending to attack Huaiyuan Town, and then sending a main force to bypass Xuantu City (Shenyang) from the north, and then break Gaimu City first. (Fushun).

But now he has new ideas.

Liaodong City, as the largest military center on the front line of Liaodong, the current scale of Liaodong City is far larger than Xuantu City, which later became the capital of Liaoning Province.

Regardless of the city walls, and the size of the assembled army is even more so.

But at this moment, Sun Dai, the guard of Liaodong City, looked at the Tang army under the city wall with an earthy face. The Tang army was lined up less than 200 meters away, and Liaodong City was close to the 2000-meter-long city wall. The Tang army lined up at least 3000 meters away. above!

The point is that all Tang soldiers are dressed in brand new steel armor, with Tang swords on their waists, long spears in their hands, and bows and arrows on their backs.The first two columns hold large shields.

The uniform army is horizontal and vertical, and the armor on their bodies is shining brightly under the sun, but when you look up, there is a feeling of endlessness at the end of the line of sight.

The dense Tang army, all wearing heavy armor, lined up neatly under the city of Liaodong.

As a general, it is basic to roughly estimate the number of enemies through the enemy's formation, tents, etc., but the previous Tang army may not have tens of thousands!

At least [-] fully armed and heavily armored elites!

Sun Daiyin's scalp was numb. He didn't know how to fight this battle. The point is, in the enemy's formation, a specific and huge catapult and large ballistas were also lined up neatly!
