"Charge! Charge!"
"Follow me! Charge!"
"Kill!"
Furious roars burst from Qin Qiong and Hou Junji!
The large force of cavalry behind them followed their generals and charged at the troops attempting to reinforce Liaodong City!
"The Tang army—it's the Tang army!"
"Wasn't the Tang army's main force attacking Liaodong City? Where did they come from?"
"Kill! Kill these Tang soldiers!"
The Goguryeo reinforcements, who had originally planned to support Liaodong City, first had their supply route cut off by the cavalry led by Qin Qiong and Hou Junji, then found themselves suddenly attacked from both front and rear!
For a time, the Goguryeo reinforcements suffered grievous losses. Wails and curses filled every corner!
"Enemy general, don't run! Qin Qiong, Qin Shubao, is here!"
A man who had been even more formidable in history than in the romances, Qin Qiong was known as one of the Tang Dynasty's Twin Red-Rod Enforcers. Throughout the charge, his gaze had remained fixed on the enemy's commanding general!
After swiftly dispatching several Goguryeo soldiers around him, he immediately yanked the reins, clamped his legs around his horse's belly, and charged straight at that commander!
Seeing the enemy commander take the initiative to charge him, the Goguryeo general was likewise ablaze with fury. Raising his weapon, he charged forward as well!
However, this Goguryeo general had clearly underestimated the gap between himself and Qin Qiong!
After only a few exchanges, the Goguryeo commander—strong on the outside but weak within—was cut from his horse by Qin Qiong on the spot!
"Your commander is dead! Those who lay down their weapons will not be killed!"
Hearing Qin Qiong's shout, the Goguryeo soldiers who had still intended to resist saw their own general lying in a pool of blood!
These Goguryeo men, forcibly conscripted into the army, exchanged glances.
