Chapter 186: Race against time

"General Manager, the other party went directly towards our infantry."

Ji Song led the cavalry to constantly harass the enemy army, but at this time the enemy army did not bother with them anymore and headed directly towards the army.

"How are Su Lie's preparations?"

Ji Song put down his bow and arrow. This was a powerful five-stone bow that could not be used by those who were not born with supernatural powers. So far, only he and Xue Li can use it.

The visitor took a look at the strong bow in the hands of his chief steward. He saw with his own eyes that everyone who was shot pierced through the heart with one arrow, and even shot two or even three eagles with one arrow.

He swallowed and said, "Report to the General Manager, General Su has sent word that the army will be assembled in a quarter of an hour at most."

Ji Song murmured: "A quarter of an hour?"

In normal times, nothing could be done in a quarter of an hour while tens of thousands of troops were on the march. Not only does it take time for the army to assemble, but it also takes time for the enemy to cover up and kill them.

But now the distance between the two armies was too close. If Yang Wanchun was not extremely confident and believed that his 50,000 troops were on the list, the Tang army would not be able to escape anyway, so they were given some time.

But now, Yang Wanchun had woken up and headed directly towards the infantry, hoping to make his kite-flying tactics ineffective.

It has to be said that he is a veteran on the battlefield. Although he faced unexpected situations, he still made the best decision in the shortest time!

"Send the order, immediately join forces and follow the general manager to attack the enemy. Be sure to buy the army half an hour."

Although Su Lie said it would only take a quarter of an hour, he understood that this was a very difficult thing. Once there is insufficient preparation, it will be like a disaster for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!

This couldn't help but make him careless, let alone be careless at all!

"All soldiers, follow me and charge!"

Boom boom!

The sound of galloping horses and the shouts of soldiers sounded in this dark night!

It makes sense that there have been few battles at night since ancient times. Due to the influence of night blindness, all leading generals can be restrained by sleeping without distinguishing between friend and foe.

Any night battle is a choice made out of desperation. No one dares to take the risk unless it is absolutely necessary.

But now, both Yang Wanchun and Ji Song understand.

At this time, there was no choice. Although Yang Wanchun had the advantage in military strength, he was inferior to the Tang army in terms of armor and combat effectiveness. The Tang army had not yet assembled at this time, which was when they were weak.

Once the Tang army is assembled, Datang's unique military formation will make them suffer. Furthermore, it is easy for his 50,000-strong army to leave the city, but it is difficult to retreat.

The Tang army was not stupid, and Ji Song was even more of a fool. How could we just watch them retreat calmly?

Therefore, this battle must be fought, especially since they have the advantage at this time.

As long as they fight the opponent's army, they can take advantage of their numbers. With Anshi City having tens of thousands of troops behind them, the Tang army did not dare to attack with all its strength.

If the Tang army dared to go out with all its strength, Yang Wanchun himself would probably wake up laughing. Once the army is anxious and the army in his city comes out in full force, Ji Song will not be able to escape completely even if he has Tongtian!

Therefore, one wanted to send troops to fight the enemy as soon as possible, while the other relied on the power of cavalry to harass and intercept the enemy's speed to buy time for their own side.

Everyone is racing against time, and no one dares to be careless!

Ji Song took the lead and charged towards the enemy. His war horse rose into the air and stepped directly on the opponent's shield. The army behind him all rushed into battle. Even if the horse was stabbed by a spear and fell, the people behind him could only bite him. He bared his teeth and trampled on his comrade's corpse to attack the enemy's formation.

Ji Song hung the strong bow on the side of the war horse and drew out the horizontal sword. The sword took a hundred days to be made by the family's master craftsman. How could its sharpness and sturdiness be comparable to other standard weapons?

Moreover, the armor on his body also took a long time to make. The enemy would only leave a white mark if they cut it, which could not break the defense at all.

Although the soldiers behind him are not as good as Ji Song, they are still a good thing that is hard to find in Chang'an. Along the way, all the enemy soldiers swept by them either had their weapons cut off, or were injured or died on contact, with limbs and arms broken. It was extremely cruel!

Wherever Ji Song's horizontal sword passed, there was no enemy at all. Whether they were enemy generals or ordinary soldiers, they were all killed with one strike.

Under the dark mask, Ji Song's heart was calm. In this world where people eat people, it's either you or me who dies. After the Battle of Mobei, he completely lost his tolerance.

Five thousand cavalry attacked the army, causing a large number of casualties to the enemy, but our own side also paid a sufficient price.

Of course Yang Wanchun knew that his army suffered heavy casualties, but he also knew that if he could not quickly engage the enemy in battle, his own Jiangbei Datang would hang alive on the road.

"General, the army can no longer hold out. At least ten generals in our army have been killed by him. That Ji Song is not a human being at all. It's terrible..."

"Shut up! If you dare to disturb the morale of the army again, I will kill you!"

Yang Wanchun also saw Ji Song's ability to take the lead and defeat all enemies. With the Tang army having such a strong general, would Goguryeo really have a chance?

"Soon, soon..."

Time passed slowly, and half an hour passed immediately.

Su Lie stood at the forefront on horseback and saw solemn expressions on the faces of the enemy soldiers who rushed to the front of the army.

The gathering of the army was too hasty. No one expected that they would dispatch 50,000 troops at once. Now he is a tired army, and although the other party suffered a lot of casualties due to being blocked by the general manager on the road, compared to the 50,000-strong army, it is just a disease.

Yang Wanchun was immediately excited when he saw the enemy troops, and finally arrived...

"kill.........."

There are no unnecessary words. At this time, if the two armies are fighting, you will die or I will die. There is no reason at all. Only by defeating the other party can you survive.

They are all fierce soldiers in the army. Although they are exhausted at this time, they can still kill the enemy without letting go of their hearts. They know that the more scared they are at this time, the easier it is to be killed. Only when they are willing to be killed can they inspire courage and fight.

Ji Song had already broken out of the enemy siege, but after the fierce fighting, the soldiers were extremely exhausted. Even if a person can hold on, a war horse can't!

"Immediately lead everyone to count the number of people and start repairing, and wait for the opportunity."

After saying that, he walked away. The situation on Su Lie's side was the most critical. If he was not careful, he would be defeated.

Sharp weapons such as bed crossbows are too bulky and extremely inconvenient to move. Otherwise, Ji Song can turn defeat into victory by relying on the huge power of the crossbow.

At this point, the only thing left was hand-to-hand combat. This was the only time Ji Song had ever participated in a battle involving nearly 100,000 people fighting hand-to-hand. Now that we don’t have the advantage in terms of military strength, we can only take risks...

He quickly led people to the place where the two armies were fighting. When he saw that the Tang army could still hold on, he breathed a sigh of relief. But now the situation is extremely pessimistic. The soldiers haven't slept all day, and after the ambush battle just now, they are already exhausted, and now they are relying on one breath to hold on.

Once this is leaked out, it will be over.............
