Chapter 85: Born a King Kong, an unborn strong rider!
The night was gloomy, with only a crescent moon hanging high in the sky, emitting a little faint light.

In the quiet night sky, long dragons are slowly passing through the floating bridge.

The bloody smell around was still strong, but it did not cause any impact on the team.

North Bank!

As time went by, more and more people gathered here.

However, under deliberate control, not much noise was made.

"Have all the Koreans really retreated? There's no movement at all?"

A deep voice sounded, it was Zhou Fashang.

"Not even a scout to follow them? Weird!" Lieutenant General Li also spoke at the same time.

Although Gao Changsheng had already told them to keep the noise down to avoid being discovered easily when he gave the order.

But to be honest, no one is completely sure about this kind of thing.

It is impossible for a large army to travel without making any noise, even if it is under the cover of night.

Moreover, no matter how small the movement is, if someone on the other side is following you, everything will be in vain.

This can also be seen from Gao Changsheng's orders.

Quick! Quiet!
Speed ​​comes before quietness.

This shows that Gao Changsheng's intention is to reduce noise as much as possible while speeding up the passage.

Therefore, Zhou Fashang and Lieutenant General Li both accompanied the first group of troops across the river.

As soon as he arrived, he immediately commanded his troops to form a defensive formation.

But the two didn't expect it.

The second batch, the third batch, and large groups of soldiers crossed the river one after another, but there was no movement from the Goryeo side.

It seemed as if he didn't notice their actions at all.

"Commander!"

People are gathering in the night.

The two soon saw a familiar figure appear and spoke at the same time.

"Marshal, Goryeo has not noticed any movement of our army! We can launch a night attack and catch them by surprise!" Lieutenant General Li spoke excitedly.

Zhou Fashang on the side also turned around at the same time.

They also didn't expect that the Korean army on the opposite side would be so careless that they didn't even set up secret guards.

Such a godsend opportunity, how can one not be excited.

Even if the Goryeo camp was prepared to deal with the attack, they could not complete the task, but at least they could dampen the enemy's morale.

Not to mention marching and fighting, even in other matters, no one likes to be passively defensive.

"No rush, just wait!"

Gao Changsheng waved his hand and looked up at the light that stretched for hundreds of miles in the distance.

That was where Goryeo’s main camp was located.

"wait?"

Confusion appeared on both of their faces.

What's there to wait for?

If it is a night attack, you naturally have to do it before the other party reacts, the sooner the better.

If we wait here, do we have to wait until the other party finds us and is prepared?
Gao Changsheng ignored their questions and just looked into the distance with a smile on his face.

The two people were left staring at each other in confusion.

But soon they both realized something was wrong.

"General Zhou, look, the light in the Goryeo camp seems wrong!" Lieutenant General Li pointed to the distance and said.

The Goryeo army came from the north with the goal of making a desperate attempt to break through the defense line.

But it is obvious that the camping location cannot be too close to the Yalu River.

Setting up camp near a river is a taboo in military strategy, especially since this river is now the front line.

In fact, the headquarters of the Goryeo army was located dozens of miles away.

However, the area north of the Yalu River is mostly plains, and given the scale of the Goryeo army's camp, even if standing here, everyone can still see the light from the camp.

At this time, after being reminded by Lieutenant General Li, Zhou Fashang obviously discovered something was wrong.

"Yes, the fire in the Gaoli camp seems to be flickering too frequently."

As soon as these words were spoken, the two of them woke up at the same time.

"There's trouble in the Goryeo camp!"

"Could it be the camp roar?" Lieutenant General Li said in surprise.

If it really is Ying Xiao, then it would be a great thing.

When marching, especially at night, what the army fears most is not a night attack, but a camp roar.

Especially for such a large-scale force, it is difficult for the command to be transmitted to each unit quickly.

Small-scale riots are easy to deal with, but once a large-scale riot breaks out, it will be doomsday for the troops.

"Not like it?" Zhou Fashang shook his head.

"Although the enemy's fire is chaotic, it doesn't look like it's completely out of control. It doesn't look like there's really a camp roar!"

Lieutenant General Li also frowned when he heard this.

If it was really a camp roar, the fire would have been completely scattered.

Although the fire in the distance was chaotic at this time, a certain pattern could still be seen after careful observation.

This scene was obviously not a camp roar.

Is it a trap?

The two shook their heads again.

If it was a trap, it was too crude.

Any general with a little experience can tell whether a camp roar really occurs.

Moreover, the Goryeo camp was located dozens of miles away, at the corner of the plain. If it was on the south bank, it would not be visible at all due to distance and line of sight.

Only when you reach the north bank can you vaguely see the fire.

If it was really a trap, Gao Li would have to bet on them crossing the river first, and then seeing the fire in the camp.

Such a plan is too much of a stretch.

Zhou Fashang kept pondering as he looked at the fire in the distance, until he accidentally caught a glimpse of the smile on Gao Changsheng's face and a flash of admiration in his eyes, and a light suddenly flashed through his mind.

"Could it be that the army from the north has arrived!" Zhou Fashang exclaimed softly.

After hearing this, Lieutenant General Li suddenly understood.

"No wonder, no wonder the enemy retreated so decisively, and didn't even set up secret sentries. So that's why our main force has arrived."

They didn't realize it at first, but when they thought about it, it suddenly became clear to them.

The enemy stopped the attack so decisively, obviously not just because of the night, the biggest reason was that they felt a strong threat.

Now, the biggest threat to the Goryeo army is undoubtedly the main force of the Sui army following behind.

This is also the reason why they crossed the river at such great cost.

Once the Sui army arrived in large numbers, they failed to find a gap.

The situation of being trapped was completely formed.

Of course, although the Goryeo army attacked with all their might, it was impossible not to place scouts in the vital position, that is, the rear.

Compared to them.

The Goryeo army would obviously be the first to know whether the main force of the Sui army had arrived.

"Hahaha!"

"The main force of our army has arrived. It looks like the outcome of this battle is decided!"

Zhou Fashang couldn't help but raise his voice and laughed towards the sky.

"Marshal, should our army send out troops immediately to attack the enemy together?" Lieutenant General Li also spoke excitedly.

Gao Changsheng shook his head decisively upon hearing this:
"Not the right time!"

"Ah?" They both asked in confusion at the same time.

Gao Changsheng continued:
"It's not the main force of the Sui army, it's just a small force!"

"Sending troops at this time can certainly inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but it will not be possible to completely encircle them!"

"By then the main force of the enemy will be dispersed, and it will be too troublesome to chase them across this thousand-mile plain!"

Gao Changsheng waved his hand casually.

"Small troop!"

They were both startled at the same time and turned their heads suddenly.

Sure enough, they found something wrong. There was only one area in the Goryeo camp where scattered flames appeared, and the surrounding flames were constantly approaching that direction.

"Is this a night raid?"

The two reacted.

I always thought that Gao Changsheng crossed the river to attack the enemy at night.

But I didn't expect that there was someone else who launched the night attack.

"Are you the vanguard of our army? You are so brave! So courageous!"

Zhou Fashang sighed softly.

From the situation from a distance, we can roughly estimate that the number of this force must be small.

With such a large number of troops, they dared to launch a direct attack on the Goryeo army. Not to mention anything else, but this courage was enough to surpass most generals.

"It should be the descendant of another family!" Zhou Fashang guessed in his heart.

It was already known to everyone that King Kaoshan brought several young generals with him on this northern expedition.

Zhou Fashang was an old man in the army and was very familiar with the styles of many generals of the Sui Dynasty.

He was sure that this was not any general he was familiar with.

"Another outstanding young man?" Zhou Fashang whispered to himself.

Before setting sail for Goryeo, he had already heard that several outstanding young people had emerged during this northern expedition.

Yes, excellent.

Although he hasn't seen it in detail yet, Zhou Fashang has already used the word "excellent" for sure.

"The Sui Dynasty has produced many talented people. This is really cause for celebration!" Zhou Fashang thought with a smile on his face. He glanced at the man in front of him who looked like a mountain standing on the edge of a deep sea. "It's a pity that there is still this man. I'm afraid the younger generation is destined to have a huge mountain pressing on their heads!"

"go!"

Just as Zhou Fashang was deep in thought, Gao Changsheng suddenly clapped his hands.

"Bring a cavalry unit and follow me to take a look."

"It's a good opportunity to support our brother troops and take a look at the layout of the Goryeo camp."

After saying that, Gao Changsheng took the lead and rode away into the distance.

"General Li, I will lead the troops to follow the Marshal. You stay here to prevent any accidents."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lieutenant General Li paused.

If he had a choice, he would certainly want to follow Gao Changsheng.

But it was helpless. In such a dark night, someone had to stay here. Without a commander, if there was a riot, it would be no joke.

But if he wanted to compete with Zhou Fashang, it was obvious that he didn't have the confidence.

As the saying goes, a higher-ranking official can crush a lower-ranking official. Whether in terms of position or qualifications, Zhou Fashang is more than one level higher than him.

"Sigh..." Lieutenant General Li sighed deeply, then began to greet the surrounding troops with a listless look.

the other side!
Gao Changsheng and his group, running recklessly, soon approached the Goryeo camp.

"Roar!"

Just getting closer.

A roar like a madman came towards him.

"What a fierce young man! Whose descendant is he?"

Zhou Fashang was the first to exclaim.

When they arrived here, they could already roughly see the situation in the camp.

However, Zhou Fashang did not have time to see the layout of the Goryeo camp.

Just arrived, the moment I looked up.

The two violently flying hammers attracted all his attention.

The dark golden hammer was raised high, and then fell down like a mountain.

The surrounding soldiers instantly exploded into blood foam.

From a distance, a circular vacuum zone had appeared around the place where the giant hammer appeared.

With Zhou Fashang's eyesight, he could clearly see the face of the man holding the hammer.

It turned out to be a skinny young man.

"Born as a diamond, destined as a Tai Sui, this world is filled with all kinds of sins."

Zhou Fashang sighed sincerely.

Although it was just a quick glance, he could tell at a glance that the young man raised his hand to attack, using all his physical strength.

Such natural physique and strength are enough to make anyone astonished.

"It is rumored that Xu Xiao, the Northern Liang King of Liyang, has a young son who is born in the Vajra Realm. The martial arts realms of Liyang are very different. Their Vajra Realm seems to be the innate realm of martial arts."

"Of course, we don't know whether this is true or not, but this young man in front of us is a real living King Kong!"

Zhou Fashang praised it repeatedly.

"Yuanba, don't fight any longer, return to the battlefield immediately!"

A clear and urgent roar was heard again in the camp.

What followed was the sound of horse hooves.

"Roar!"

The man swinging the hammer let out a dissatisfied roar, and then uttered a muffled hum: "Got it!"

Although it was a whisper, the sound was still as loud as a bell.

"Good formation!"

Gao Changsheng suddenly spoke and praised softly.

Zhou Fashang turned his head when he heard that, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"What a sharp assault formation! It seems that the young man who spoke up is the one who is in charge of this night attack."

Zhou Fashang praised.

"What a pity, there is still some deviation after all!"

After saying this, Zhou Fashang shook his head again.

"This formation should use that young man as the spearhead. According to his natural power, he should be invincible."

"It's a pity that the young man seemed to lack wisdom and was too absorbed in the battle, causing the army formation to shift and the arrow body and the arrowhead were almost disconnected."

Gao Changsheng did not comment.

Of course he recognized the two people in the formation at a glance.

In fact, he already had a guess when he sensed that someone was attacking the camp.

There were many young men joining the army on this expedition, but not many of them were capable of carrying out such a night attack based on their personalities.

Luo Cheng is still a little immature, and as he is under Shi Wansui's command, it is unlikely that he would appear here.

Li Jing does have the ability and dares to do so, but unless he is sure of winning, he probably won't take the risk, especially Li Jing at this stage.

The others are Yang Xuangan and Li Shimin.

The latter are particularly good at charging into battle array and attacking camps, while the former are even more daring.

As for Zhou Fashang's evaluation, it is indeed not wrong.

But Gao Changsheng obviously didn't care about these.

Judging from the military formation, Li Shimin's formation is indeed not perfect at this moment.

But Gao Changsheng was looking at what was behind the formation.

Although the formation was not perfect at this time, the soldiers charging behind him also had weaknesses.

But there are already some clues to many things.

"The prototype of the Black Armor Army?"

Gao Changsheng whispered to himself.

He could be sure that this cavalry was definitely not the direct descendants led by Li Shimin.

But from the formation to the soldiers, a lot can be seen, especially in the eyes of Gao Changsheng, a man with two lifetimes of experience.

If the formation is completely improved, and a perfectly compatible army is added.

A series of deductions instantly appeared in Gao Changsheng's mind.

The already sharp attacking formation, coupled with the unique troops, will produce a tearing and piercing power that will definitely be earth-shattering.

If a military spirit is born on this basis, its terrifying level will increase exponentially.

Gao Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the charging cavalry troops again.

“It’s lucky!”

Zhou Fashang spoke again.

"General, you killed Yeon Gaesomun. Now there is no one in the Goryeo army who is good at fighting. At best, you can only mobilize a small group of troops."

"This also makes it easier for this cavalry to charge."

"If the enemy has a famous general in the camp, connecting the entire camp, with such an imperfect formation and the disconnection between the front and the back, there is absolutely no chance of survival!"

After hearing this, Gao Changsheng nodded.

Many of Li Shimin's tactics were risky in nature.

Just like the charge of a few against a larger force in front of us.

The danger is self-evident.

Unless you really have a very powerful cavalry.

Otherwise, like today, it's more about luck.

"But judging from the situation, the Goryeo army reacts too slowly. It should not be a problem for them to break out of the camp." Zhou Fashang laughed.

Upon hearing this, Gao Changsheng just shook his head slightly and looked in another direction.

Zhou Fashang was stunned when he saw this, but he quickly reacted and exclaimed:
"Oops, I forgot about Fu Cailin!"

Fu Cailin is not familiar with military formations, but as a grandmaster, his reaction and action speed far exceed those of ordinary generals.

At this moment, Li Shimin's formation was disjointed and had flaws. If he were suddenly attacked by a grandmaster, the outcome would be unknown.

"How dare you attack my Gaoli camp with such a small force? Leave your life to me!"

Sure enough, it was only the next second!
A roar filled with rage came from the sky.

"It's Fu Cailin, Yuanba, hurry back to the formation!"

Li Shimin's face also changed!
The entire team quickly changed direction and headed towards Li Yuanba.

The Grand Master suddenly appeared, and he had to meet up with Li Yuanba as soon as possible, unify their forces, and break out of the encirclement.

Otherwise, if time goes on, it might become really dangerous.

Li Shimin was indeed fast.

But Fu Cailin was obviously faster.

Fu Cailin, who was already full of anger, attacked with hatred at this time, which was like thunder.

The most important thing is that the most conspicuous person on the scene at this moment is undoubtedly the killing spree Li Yuanba.

Fu Cailin's target was naturally placed on him.

"Buzz!"

The space vibrated and the sword energy roared.

The sharp aura rolled in and pressed directly towards Li Yuanba.

Fu Cailin, filled with hatred, did not hold back at all and used all his strength as he raised his hand.

"Roar, I'll smash you to death!"

Faced with such terrifying power, Li Yuanba did not show any fear. Of course, he had never known what fear was.

"Yuanba, stop it, come back quickly!"

It seemed that Li Yuanba not only did not retreat, but instead rushed towards Fu Cailin with a hammer raised.

Li Shimin's face changed again.

"Yuanba!"

Seeing two figures getting closer and closer.

Li Shimin couldn't help but let out a roar of grief and anger.

Li Yuanba does have an amazing physique, natural supernatural powers, and a Taoist heritage, but he is still young now. In terms of true combat power, how can he compare with a grandmaster?

It seemed that the two sides were about to collide.

Li Shimin couldn't help but feel despair in his heart and closed his eyes reluctantly.

Compared with Li Shimin, Fu Cailin's face showed a look of joy at this time.

Of course he could see Li Yuanba's talent.

This also made him involuntarily think of Gao Changsheng.

Unable to kill Gao Changsheng, it is undoubtedly a comfort for Fu Cailin to be able to kill a genius from the same Sui Dynasty.

Unfortunately, his plan was obviously going to fail again.

That was the moment when Fu Cailin's sword was about to fall on Li Yuanba.

Thunder exploded, instantly lighting up the entire night sky.

Under a sky as bright as day.

A white knife light rose up from the sky and pointed straight at Fu Cailin in the air.

"Gao! Chang! Sheng!"

Sad, mad, and miserable.

A roar mixed with all the negative emotions suddenly exploded.
