Volume 3 Beauty Singing Chapter 121 Defeated
"It makes no sense. Qi Tian was furious, he was very surprised, the army he had trained, with well-prepared weapons, enjoyed better treatment than the army of the Great Xia Empire, why was it defeated at this time, in front of the army of Nanning Mansion, it seemed that there was no way to fight back, what is the difference between the two armies?
Just relying on Qi Tian's own strength, it can't save the defeat after all, and it is a doomed defeat from the beginning.
Qi Tian seemed to look down on his army, and after the battle lasted for more than ten minutes, Qi Tianzhen's army was covered by the army of Nanning Mansion under the base of the city wall, and there was no way to retreat. Although Hua Chun desperately commanded the crossbowmen to fire several volleys on the city wall, and the rain of arrows fell, stopping the momentum of the pursuing army in Nanning Prefecture, it was soon responded to by the long-range siege ballistas.
The crossbowmen on the city wall were hit by pieces of rubble and were overwhelmed, and after several rounds of ballista salvos, the battlements on the city wall were swept away and became ruins, and the people on it had no cover, and there was no room to hide, so they had to run under the city wall, and even Hua Chun was almost hit by a boulder, and brought people down from the city wall to support the frontal battlefield.
Lost the protection of the crossbow arrows above the city wall, the frontal battlefield had no to fight, almost crushing, Qi Tianzhen's army retreated all the way, the army of Nanning Mansion re-awakened the offensive, and chased all the way, Qi Tianzhen's soldiers were beaten and lost their armor and fled to the city, the so-called will to fight has been killed and gone.
This is the terrible thing about the army of Nanning Prefecture, if they want to attack, they will attack to the end, they want to fight the enemy's heart, completely frighten the enemy, so that they dare not face the battle, to the point of death, then Qi Tianzhen is probably already in the bag of Hua Nong.
It's just that this place, Hua Nong wants to come useless, so from the beginning when discussing countermeasures, some people advocate that Qi Tian Town should be completely flattened and made into a cemetery, no matter who it is, as long as it is a person in this town, it is a traitor to the empire, and it must be strangled, in fact, this truth is correct, whether it is a soldier with a weapon, or a common person, they all follow Qi Tian to make a fortune, and they will inevitably be implicated, but Hua Nong is still kind-hearted, and does not want to kill, this is also a long time, Hua Nong's strict way of reorganizing the army, in summary, is five can not do, one must be done
If you encounter civilians, you can do no harm.
If you encounter a general, do not hurt it.
If you encounter a wounded soldier, do not hurt it.
If you encounter a private house, do not destroy it.
If you encounter people's wealth, do not be greedy.
If you encounter resistance, you will be killed.
Not all the armies of Nanning Mansion are as brave and good at fighting as the army under Hua Nong, such an army, even if you look at the entire Great Xia Empire, it is difficult to find a second one, speaking of which, the gluttonous mercenary group can fight with it, but unfortunately the Dongmu family will not be stupid enough to get along with Nanning Mansion, if these two big families fight, then the Great Xia Empire will be seriously affected, and the national strength will be at least permanently reduced by three percent.
"Retreat, retreat to the gates, and block the gates for me. "Hua Chun just ran out, and saw that the battlefield situation was gone, and victory was actually out of reach for them, the only thing they could do now was to hold on and wait for the army of the Demon Domain in Gugou Town to turn back, thus forming a situation of two-sided attack, maybe they could still fight a dozen, but in the end, Qi Tianzhen still had to lose, otherwise, if it continued like this, there were not thousands of dead people on the Nanning Mansion, and tens of thousands of troops on their side would have to be reimbursed, but over the years, Hua Chun's entire effort was spent on Qi Tian Town, how could I bear itγ
And Hua Nong is very happy to see this situation, to be honest, she has never put Hua Chun and Qi Tianzhen in her eyes, but this Qi Tian, as well as the army of the Demon Domain, is her real goal, especially the army of the Demon Domain, they dare to cross the border, run to the hinterland of the Great Xia Empire, and it is also an army that does not know the number, however, since it is called an army, the number must be more than a thousand, and this number is almost impossible to complete if you want to cross the border at one time, even if a hundred people cross the border together, they will also be discovered by the imperial scouts on the side, so how these people are bordered, this needs to be carefully investigated, The key is the forces behind this matter, this is what Hua Nong hates the most, they are the moths of the Great Xia Empire, corroding the foundation of the Great Xia Empire all the time.
Almost every family in the empire is responsible for a defensive area on the border, if it weren't for their disadvantage, or if they cooperated with the Demon Domain, how could they let the army of the Demon Domain enter the hinterland of the Great Xia Empire? Such a person must be eliminated, so after this battle, Hua Nong also wrote to the imperial family of the Empire, asking for a strict investigation of this matter, and now he knows the movements of this Demon Domain army, if he doesn't know, wouldn't it be bad if he was infiltrated into the imperial city by this army?
Qi Tian alone is still difficult to stop the army of Nanning Mansion, but he also really shows the height of the strong, he killed several generals in Nanning Mansion, these generals are so many years with Hua Nong south and north of the war heroes, Hua Nong resentful, after Qi Tian withdrew to the city, ordered the siege troops to storm the front city wall, all the siege weapons fired together, the city wall in front of Qi Tian Town, opened a gap, the army turned to a full-scale attack, the two sides fought at least two hours in this gap, in a width of less than ten meters, a total of more than 300 people on both sides fell, and finally Li Dahai led the vanguard army into the city, and engaged in fierce street battles with the army of Qi Tian Town.
Qi Tian, at this time, retreated to the mansion under the protection of his entourage, and was discussing a solution with Song Shi and others. Qi Tianzhen is afraid that he will not be able to hold on, if this is the case, Qi Tian will also think about the future by himself.
At present, they have no way out, only to fight to break out, go to the land of the Demon Domain, and preserve their strength, there is a good saying, it is called 'stay in the green mountains and are not afraid of no firewood', if they continue to fight like this, the family funds accumulated through these decades of hard work will be served by Hua Nong.
"Brother Qi, don't hesitate any longer, let General Song Shi cover your retreat, as long as you want to live, we will have a comeback one day, if you have an accident, then there is really no hope. "There is an entourage advising Qi Tian.
"I'm Qi Tian, I will definitely not back down after my cultivation has reached this point, you don't have to worry about my safety, just with that little girl, he can't kill me, the problem is, we are so strong now, Qi Tian Town is surrounded on all sides, and the geographical location is quite unfavorable, even if we can rush out, but we will be hunted down by the Great Xia Empire along the way, who knows where the people from the Demon Domain are now?" Qi Tian said.
"I've sent a message to the Demon Domain, they are coming to support, the main thing is that we are holding on for a few hours, preserving our strength, and when the army of the Demon Domain arrives, we can attack back and forth, and hit the Nanning Mansion army by surprise, maybe we can defeat them, even if I can't defeat them, I won't lose too badly, they will have to pay the price." Hua Chun said.
"My lord, it's not good, the army of Nanning Mansion has already killed Zhongjie and is rushing towards this side, and we have come to protect the retreat of the generals. Just then, a young man outside the door ran in.
