Chapter 1011 The first battle
The shouts of killing can be heard far away. The Goguryeo soldiers who were marching also knew that their vanguard had already fought with the Tang army's vanguard.
This shows that they will soon be in the battle with the Tang army.
They were very excited, but they were not worried that the forward camp would be defeated.
After all, the forward battalion led by Sun Dewang was a forward when attacking Silla. He never lost all the way, and they were all elite cavalry in all battles. Sun Dewang is not only brave but also brave and resourceful.
Even among their 200,000 troops, there are still many fierce men, so they can naturally fight the Tang army vanguard.
You can give the Tang army a warning, you must know that the defeat of the vanguard can affect the morale of the army.
He severely slashed the power of the Tang army, otherwise the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty would have thought that they were made of mud!
"Although Sun Dewang is a little rebellious, he is indeed brave. He will definitely defeat the vanguard of the Tang army in this battle, win the flag, and boost the morale of the army!" Gao Huizhen said with a smile.
Gao Yanshou nodded slightly and said, "That's natural, otherwise I wouldn't have called him a pioneer general!"
Just as Gao Yanshou and Gao Huizhen were talking, a cavalry suddenly rushed over and looked panicked.
"Master, Master, the forward battalion was defeated!"
Gao Yanshou was stunned, Gao Huizhen was stunned, and the personal soldiers next to him were all stunned, were they defeated?
How could it be defeated?
How could it be that it was defeated so quickly?
Just now, they were confident that Sun Dewang would severely slash the power of the Tang army, but why did Sun Dewang lose the battle?
In an instant, Gao Yanshou felt his forehead hurt!
Top!
"Where is Sun Dewang? Let him get over!" Gao Yanshou shouted angrily.
"You are the general, General Sun, General Sun has died on the spot. He was killed on the spot after a few rounds of battle!"
After hearing the messenger's reply, Gao Yanshou couldn't help but take a breath. He was very clear about Sun Dewang's martial arts. He was actually killed on the spot after a few rounds of battle.
Sun Dewang died on the spot on the battlefield, which made him angry and not set off. Of course, he felt a little cold. No matter how he thought about this vanguard, he was a sure win in this battle, why did he lose?
Even the pioneer general was killed?
Gao Huizhen couldn't help but change her face and asked quickly: "Who is the vanguard general of the Tang army? Do you know who was the one who killed General Sun?"
"Qi Bijian Deputy General, the person who killed General Sun claimed to be Su Dingfang and claimed to be a pioneer general!"
Since he claims to be a pioneer general, it should be true. The pioneer general of the Tang Dynasty is undoubtedly the famous general Su Dingfang.
But why haven't I heard of this person?
Gao Huizhen asked in confusion: "Su Dingfang? Have you heard of Su Dingfang?"
Gao Yanshou shook his head slightly and said, "I haven't heard of this person before. I don't know where this person came out."
Both of them looked very serious. If the person who killed Sun Dewang was a famous general like Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong and Li Ji, they would not be shocked, but the person who killed Sun Dewang was someone they had never heard of and came out of nowhere, which was shocking.
"This person's surname is Su. Do you think it has anything to do with Su Cheng?" Gao Huizhen asked.
Gao Yanshou nodded with a serious face and said, "It is very likely that Su Cheng is very evil! Su Dingfang who suddenly appeared was also very evil. He has never heard of such a powerful person in the Tang Dynasty!"
Originally they were full of confidence in this war, but now the sudden defeat of the forward was cast a shadow on their hearts.
Gao Yanshou couldn't help but remember the words of Su Cheng that Li Yang reposted, and that the Tang army could exert greater combat power when they went out of the city to fight.
Could this be true?
After the defeat of the vanguard battalion fled back, Gao Yanshou immediately ordered the generals to go back, but the news could not be hidden and spread rapidly in the army.
The Forward Battalion was defeated!
Even the vanguard general Sun Dewang was killed on the spot by the vanguard general of the Tang army!
All the generals who heard this news took a breath, because Sun Dewang was brave and resourceful, and all the soldiers of the army could see it, and they were very convinced of Sun Dewang's ability.
However, unexpectedly, Sun Dewang was defeated and killed on the spot!
Who is the pioneer general of the Tang army?
Is it Cheng Yaojin?
Is it Yuchi Gong?
Is it Lee Hyo-gong?
Is it Li Ji?
...
No, he is a man named Su Dingfang?
Su Dingfang?
Where did Su Dingfang emerge? He was able to defeat the front camp and killed Sun Dewang on the spot!
How could they have never heard of such a powerful general in the Tang Dynasty?
If Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, Xue Wanche and others are here, they will definitely sigh that there are so many famous generals in the Tang Dynasty, and it is really not easy to make a comeback.
At this point, they finally understood that the Tang Dynasty and Silla were different after all.
In Silla, they never lost a general who had captured the cities and villages. Now they had just fought with the Tang Dynasty and actually lost a pioneer general!
When they attacked Silla, they never lost a single battle, but they were defeated in the first battle with the Tang army!
Can the failure of the first battle be counted as Gao Yanshou?
They asked themselves that they could not count Gao Yanshou's body. Even if General Yuan was here, he would probably have made such arrangements and would probably have suffered a defeat.
However, this battle does not mean that the Tang army is better than them!
After all, they have the advantage of military strength, and they have the right time, place, and people!
"Brothers, don't be afraid. Maybe General Sun's horse was stumbled, maybe the Tang army used some conspiracy. Will our army be afraid of the Tang army in Silla? Let's kill us now and avenge General Sun!"
Many generals encouraged the soldiers, fearing that the morale of the army would be hit.
Gao Yanshou also sent a commander to the battalions to send messages, striving not to be too much affected by the morale of the army.
After defeating Goguryeo's forward, Su Dingfang did not underestimate the enemy and advance slowly, but instead suppressed his position and moved forward slowly. Although he won a battle, it was just an appetizer for this decisive battle.
"Report! Report to Your Majesty, General Su Dingfang defeated the Goguryeo vanguard, beheaded thousands of people, and killed Sun Dewang, the enemy's leading general!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but be happy and smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Su Dingfang fought well, and showed the style of my Tang Dynasty. I have recorded this merit! I will give you a good news to the soldiers of the three armies to boost morale!"
Soon, as the messengers shuttled through, the news that the vanguard battalion defeated the vanguard of the Goguryeo Army spread among the three armies.
The soldiers of the three armies were not surprised. They fought so many victories along the way, so this small victory was not worthy of surprise at all.
