Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 92
Li Ke knew very well that there were still [-] defenders in the opposite city, and if he wanted to take down the entire city with the least loss, he couldn't rush into the city and fight fiercely with the enemy.

Once he entered the city and fell into street fighting, his advantage of having a large number of soldiers and generals would completely disappear.

The terrain in the city is narrow, and no matter how many people there are, they will not be able to charge to the front line. If the front lines cannot be drawn apart, they will not be able to form a siege situation. The 13 troops cannot be deployed at all.

What's more, among the 13 troops, the most advantageous place is the [-] cavalry troops. When these cavalry troops charge up, one can be as good as ten, and they come and go with unparalleled speed.But in the narrow lanes of the city, these cavalry were completely useless.

So even if he took advantage of the opponent's unknown enemy situation, he would not rush forward and throw away his own advantage.

But there are still many benefits to pulling out the watchtower. The army hides the camouflage and arranges an ambush in advance. These tasks have been completed.

Now, seeing the Goguryeo defenders pouring in at the gate of the city, Li Ke was sure, and he ordered Ma Liuzhi to say:
"You lead the main cavalry to guard in the dense forest on the side first, and I will lure people over!"

After all, he picked out five thousand cavalry and headed for the gate of the city.

At this moment, at the gate of Anshi City, defenders were rushing towards the tower. These soldiers were hurriedly urged by the generals who defended the city.

"Quick, get in position and deploy your defenses quickly!"

Li Cunliang, the general guarding the city, rushed to the tower at this time and ordered the soldiers to deploy emergency defenses.

He was called out from the guard's mansion. Originally, Anshi City was located in the rear, and there was a watchtower as an outpost. The possibility of being attacked was extremely low, so he didn't deploy much defense at all.

At this time, he rushed to the top of the city tower in horror, and seeing that the gate of the city had not yet fallen, Li Cunliang felt relieved and heaved a sigh of relief.

If the city gate is lost, he, the defender, will be guilty of a great crime.

Although there are [-] defenders in the city, without the city wall as a barrier, they can only face this unknown enemy head-on.

Win or lose, this is a fight to the death.

But fortunately, the people on the opposite side seemed to be ignorant of the art of war and tactics, so they didn't take advantage of the chaos and took advantage of the chaos to occupy the tower.

Thinking of this, Li Cunliang couldn't help but sneered, and secretly scolded the other person for being a fool.

Thinking of this, he probed down again, wanting to see what this stupid enemy was.

He saw thousands of troops rushing to the city from a distance, the leader was a young general who looked less than twenty.

Li Cunliang was overjoyed, the person on the other side was just a doll, no wonder he missed the opportunity and didn't know how to take advantage of the surprise attack.

He screamed from the top of the building: "Who is coming?"

Underneath, the young general held a long halberd in his hand, and said in a dawdly way: "I am the general of Youzhou. I heard that you Goguryeo is going to send troops to the south, so I led the army here and caught you by surprise!"

This general was riding a white horse and was wearing golden armor. He originally had a majestic appearance, but he was still dangling his legs while riding on the horse, and he spoke in a foolish way. He really didn't look like a qualified general.

Li Cunliang sneered in his heart, I am afraid that one of the second generation ancestors of the Tang Dynasty went to the army to experience, and when he heard that Goguryeo was sending troops, he came out to conquer in anger.

It's a pity that this person didn't know the situation, so he ran blindly and ran all the way to Anshi City.

This is the rear area of ​​Goguryeo. If he encounters the Goguryeo army here, there is no possibility of him surviving.

What's more, this person is dressed like a dog, but he doesn't know how to fight at all. He clearly seized the opportunity, but he doesn't know how to attack the city by taking advantage of the chaos.

Now my Anshi City is heavily guarded, no matter how hard you fight, you won't be able to get in.

Thinking of this, Li Cunliang stretched out his hand and pointed: "Hey! You thief boy, you dare to disturb my city defense, but it's too late?"

The young general smiled instead of anger: "Hahaha, how dare a small border country offend me, Tang Tianwei, and now still speak loudly in front of this general, what a joke!"

He raised the long halberd in his hand again, and shouted: "If you are sensible, hand over this Anshi City, maybe Grandpa is kind enough to disturb your dog's life!"

Li Cunliang sneered, this guy had a perfect opportunity to attack, but he missed the chance. Why would he want to attack the city now?
With a wave of his hand, he ordered the defenders to draw their bows and aim at them.

"Thief boy, listen up, you have violated our Anshi city defense, I have no good temper to argue with you!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows.

At this time, the Goguryeo defenders got the general order, and they all drew their bowstrings to the full, and shot out the sharp arrows.

But the cavalry below reacted quickly, and the young general quickly pulled the team away, out of the range of the Goguryeo soldiers.

When Li Cunliang got angry, this kid was clever, and he ran away in a while.

He was hesitating whether to go out of the city and take the second generation ancestor, but he didn't think about it, and there was another clamor from below.

"I said, haven't you guys eaten yet? Young Master, I'll stand here and let you shoot, but none of you can hit it!"

It turned out that the young general rode up again, and the cavalrymen under his command clamored one after another, and the scene was extremely lively for a while.

"Damn it! This kid wants to die!"

Li Cunliang's heart became angry, and he roared behind him: "Take my war horse!"

He had already roughly checked the opponent's strength, but there were only four or five thousand cavalry, and there were forty thousand defenders in his city, so it would be effortless to take down this kid.

After all, he kissed the soldiers and horses, pulled out all the [-] cavalry in the city, and replenished [-] light infantry, leaving only [-] heavy infantry to guard the city defense.

According to his calculations, [-] troops are more than enough to guard the city gate, even if the opponent's [-] soldiers attack, it will be difficult to break through the city.

Moreover, Anshicheng is located in the rear, so it is impossible for a large army to attack.

The young general led cavalry with high mobility, so he must have slipped to the gate of Anshi City to show off his power while the main force was unguarded.

Naturally, he has figured out the opponent, this person is just a second generation ancestor who has no strategy, he must be a descendant of a general of the Tang Dynasty, who wants to lead the cavalry to show off his prestige behind Goguryeo.

But how could he, Li Cunliang, let the other party be arrogant?
"Boy, Grandpa Li is here, don't run away with the seeds!"

While speaking, this Li Cunliang had led his troops out of the city and killed them.

But the cavalry of the young general didn't retreat but smiled: "Hahaha! My Tang army is invincible, why should I run?"

As he spoke, he gave an order and made a gesture to rush to kill.

Li Cunliang smiled in his heart, you rushed towards me at this time, that is courting death.

Immediately he waved his hand and ordered his troops to beat the horses and charge forward to meet them.

He himself clamped his horse's belly and rushed into the middle of the army.

Li Cunliang originally wanted to take down the opponent directly with his superior force, and he was complacent in his heart, but unexpectedly, the Tang army stopped halfway through the charge.

He was wondering, but he saw that Tang Jun suddenly turned his horse's head and retreated.

Li Cunliang was suspicious, he hesitated whether to chase after him and take down the second generation ancestor.

While hesitating, he suddenly heard a booming sound behind his ears, followed by the sound of sharp arrows "swish".
