Chapter 159: Soldiers Descend on the City
In March, after the fall of Yizhou City, General Bai committed suicide, which seemed to sound the final alarm bell for the twilight Great Chu Empire. The pen and the court of the www.biquge.info court went against the norm, stopped the never-ending infighting, and restarted the reorganization of troops and horses to prepare for a counterattack.
In April, after a month's time, the Iron Wolf Rider completely swept away the resistance forces in Yizhou and temporarily halted its expansion. While sticking to his current territory, he is fighting hard to increase his own strength.
The reason why Li Fei made this decision was also because there were several scribes who took refuge in him, who were by his side and helped him with careful advice. Because the speed of the rise of the iron-blooded wolf is too fast, he has not yet taken down the entire Great Chu Empire, and some of his hidden dangers must be solved as soon as possible. For example, because of the growth of personnel, the problem of mixing fish and dragons that can be avoided and the emergence of black sheep in the army cannot be tolerated.
In May, the imperial court again raised troops to attack. This time, 500,000 soldiers and horses were mobilized, and King Wen was still under the command, and he invited domestic skilled craftsmen to make various war equipment, so as to break through the iron-blooded wolf cavalry in one fell swoop and recover the lost rivers and mountains.
In June, the Iron Wolf Rider and King Wen officially went to war. The iron-blooded wolf rode in many battles before, which gave them a proud mentality, but they were brutally defeated by King Wen with the help of the terrain. Then King Wen chased and fought fiercely, won three battles and three victories, and even captured Yizhou in one go.
suffered such a big defeat, which was unprecedented since the Iron Wolf rode up, and the morale of the army was greatly reduced. Taking advantage of this opportunity, King Wen continued to send people to secretly contact the small forces attached to the iron-blooded wolf cavalry to win over and divide, and many speculators saw that the opportunity was not good, and broke away from the iron-blooded wolf rider one after another, and for a while, the situation changed dramatically.
In July, Li Wenyuan, who had been paying attention to the changes in the battle situation in Yunzhou, sent someone to send a bag of tips to Li Fei in person.
In mid-July, the two armies of the Iron Wolf Cavalry and the Imperial Court fought again on the border of Jingzhou. King Wen secretly plotted against a force in the Iron Wolf Rider, and prepared to join forces with the outside to destroy the Iron Wolf Rider in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, Li Fei had already taken precautions, secretly set up an ambush, and the court army that he killed was defeated, which once again stabilized his own military morale.
In August, Li Wenyuan gave away tips again. Li Fei led the iron-blooded wolf to ride, regrouped, dismantled King Wen's conspiracy several times, regained lost territory all the way, brought Yizhou back under control, and waved his troops straight in, defeated King Wen and retreated, and took a state of territory in Qingdao.
In September, because King Wen was repeatedly defeated, the imperial court decided to change the generals and transfer King Wen back to the capital. A minister wrote a letter to King Wen to supervise the unfavorable crime of the army, but he was beheaded by King Wen in the dynasty, and then walked away, and since then he has closed the door and ignored the government.
In October, since the change of generals in the imperial court, no one is the opponent of the iron-blooded wolf rider, and occasionally there are people who can fight well, but they are also wiped out under the artillery of the iron-blooded wolf rider. drove all the way straight in, trance into no man's land, and took three continents in a month.
In November, with victory in sight, the Iron Wolf Rider continued to chase and fight. The imperial court, having lost a large part of its territory, could no longer organize an army for a counteroffensive. At this time, the people of Wanbao Firm stood up, and with a wave of his hand, Mrs. Wen directly took out half of the family property, recruited troops for the imperial court, and once again formed a resistance force.
In December, in the face of the army organized by the imperial court again, the iron-blooded wolf cavalry still won consecutive battles, conquering two states again, and all the resistance forces of the imperial court were curled up on the last territory of the Great Chu Empire - the capital of the Great Chu Empire.
Li Wenyuan, who had been hiding in Yunzhou to engage in construction, finally left Yunzhou and came to the military camp of the iron-blooded wolf horseman.
Looking at the majestic giant city in front of him, a flash of excitement flashed in Li Wenyuan's eyes, and he finally waited for this day.
At this time, the iron-blooded wolf cavalry has already approached the city, and this is already the last resistance force, as long as the capital is taken again, everything will be over.
"This is a tough bone!" Li Fei looked at the tall city wall and the dense figures on the city wall, and said with a slight frown.
Li Fei is also a congenital master now, with his eyesight, he naturally found that many of the soldiers on the city wall are the elite of the elite, including the Wanbao Army who has dealt with before, and now he has become an opponent again.
Li Wenyuan also nodded when he heard this, within the scope of his divine sense, the aura of the innate masters in the entire capital was almost close to hundreds, and among them, there were seven or eight innate masters, which were far higher than the other masters.
"These should all be those who break through the innate on their own. Li Wenyuan thought secretly in his heart.
With Li Fei's order, dozens of artillery pieces appeared in front of the military formation and began to bombard the city wall non-stop.
"Even if you are really impregnable, there will always be a time when you will be broken!" Li Fei thought secretly in his heart. On the opposite side are all elite soldiers and strong generals, if you use people to attack the city, then you don't know how many lives you have to use to fill it, so you just cannonball it and pull it down. Simple, violent, Li Fei is now more and more fond of artillery.
An earth-shattering roar sounded, and the people outside the city were full of anticipation, while the people inside the city were terrified.
Especially the emperor of the Great Chu Empire in the palace, every cannon shot made his heart beat, and he was afraid that a group of people would rush in the next second and cut off his head. He is very scared now, very, very afraid, he has not been on the throne for a long time, and he has not enjoyed enough of this glory and wealth, and he can't let go of this high imperial power.
In the midst of this burst of artillery fire, the emperor's mood became more and more irritable, and he drove everyone around him out and locked himself in the study to vent.
At this time, everyone can see clearly that the Great Chu Empire is over, and it is only a matter of time before the city gate is breached.
Father-in-law Wei came out of the emperor's study and quietly came to a room in the palace, where a lot of people had gathered at this time.
"Everyone, our family has already made contact with the Iron Wolf Rider, and when you change shifts tonight, as long as you secretly open the city gate, then you can not only avoid death, but also enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future!" said to Gonggong Wei to the people inside.
"I am willing to listen to my father-in-law's orders, go to the soup and fight the fire, and do not give up!" everyone replied with their fists clenched, and at this time they must plan for themselves.
A smile appeared on Gonggong Wei's face, and he thought silently in his heart: "Niangniang, the slave has finally avenged you, and has been used as a country for thousands of years in the Great Chu Empire, and I will bury you!"
At night, the sound of artillery fire outside the city was still continuous, and there was no intention of stopping.
The people on the city wall were frightened for a day, and when they saw that the sound of artillery fire still did not stop at night, they had already cursed the iron-blooded wolf in their hearts.
And Li Fei is now secretly scolding in his heart, the walls of the imperial capital of the Great Chu Empire are too thick, and he has bombarded them with artillery all day, and he has not made any gaps.
In fact, there is no way to do this, after all, the power of this simple artillery is limited, and it is of course invincible to deal with ordinary people and low-level martial artists, but it is also limited to this range, and it is a little powerless in the upward.
