Chapter 48: The Battle of Chang'an
Chapter 48
Zhang Lie's appearance did not alarm anyone, or that except for a few maids and wives who stayed behind in the Qin Palace, everyone else was gone.
Walking on the street, I saw soldiers or men walking rapidly, and everyone had a strict feeling of hatred and hatred on their faces.
When Zhang Lie arrived at the main gate of Chang'an, he saw a crowd of people on the city tower. Not to mention the Datang sergeants wearing Mingguang armor, there are more people wearing leather armor, these people are not Datang soldiers at first glance, but they seem to be the guardians of major families.
It's just that at this moment, the land is not divided into north and south, and people are not divided into old and young, all of them are swaying their blood to defend Datang.
The long horn sounded, and the aura of slaughter rushed straight to the nine heavens at any time.
"Knock~Knock~Knock~" The war drums sounded, and the drums were crisp and clear.
It's just that soon, Zhang Lie felt that something was wrong, how the drum beat was weak, and the more he went to the back, the less powerful he became.
It stands to reason that in the Tang Empire, it is impossible not to find even a suitable drummer.
Zhang Lie tapped his toes, and the whole person was like a cannonball, instantly rising into the air. Standing in the sky, overlooking this epic battle outside Chang'an City, he suddenly understood everything.
Looking at the dense Hu soldiers outside, Zhang Lie's scalp was a little numb. Because he saw that the number of enemies besieging Chang'an City this time was at least twice as many as recorded in history.
Although these Hu soldiers were poorly equipped, especially lacking siege equipment. But the bright sword in his hand, and the tendons and flesh around him, told the enemy in front of him how brave and good they were.
"Li Shimin!"
Zhang Lie was shocked, it was actually Li Shimin on the side of Datang, and next to him, there were the two great gods of the future, the two generals. The two followed Li Shimin from time to time to escort him.
The crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty, actually went to the battlefield in person and fought as hard as the soldiers on the battlefield.
What about the other generals of the Tang Dynasty?
Zhang Lie remembered that the Tang Dynasty in this era did not lack generals who could fight well, and at this time, how to let Li Shimin go to the battlefield. Even if it's for show, he's going too far.
At the same time, he also knew what was going on with the drum beat just now!
Looking at the city gate, it was really the one who, as a weak woman, helped her husband beat the drum, and was really a virtuous queen who could leave a name in history.
"Kill!!"
Li Shimin had just swung his sword and beheaded a hundred-up of Hu soldiers, and the blood gushing out instantly splashed on him, staining the battle armor on his body red.
He didn't care at all, looked up at the dense Hu soldiers, gritted his teeth and shouted: "Soldiers, kill with me!" β
At the same time, Li Shimin understands that this is not the way to go. It is only hoped that the other three route armies will be able to outflank them from the detour and fight from the flanks and rear flanks, and only in this way can these invading enemies be defeated.
"You must hold on, hold on, behind me are the people of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, if I let Hu Kidnap invade the imperial capital today, my Li family will be a sinner for the ages."
Li Shimin didn't expect it. There are so many enemies attacking this time, more than the gods have informed. Originally, he was ready, and even temporarily organized the guards and nurses of each family into an army, responsible for guarding Chang'an City, and the Tang sergeants were responsible for going out of the city to kill the enemy.
"Jieli, Tuli, dare to fight with Lone!" Li Shimin looked at the two Turkic khans who were high up not far away with red eyes. As for the person next to the khan, Li Shimin directly ignored it. He knew that this time these two khans attacked Datang with all their might, and it was this person who instigated it, and they must have promised countless benefits.
"Li Shimin, now that my 100,000-strong army is besieging the city, although your Tang army is scheming, in front of my absolute strength, it will collapse in an instant. I just have to sit here and watch your Li Shimin's head being cut off by my sons. When the time comes, I will make your head into a fine wine vessel and fill it with a glass of mare's milk. β
Tuli Khan laughed and said, he knew that Li Yuan and Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty had a falling out, and Li Yuan left Chang'an City with the army. Now that Chang'an City has few soldiers and the people's hearts are withering, as long as the army is sent to occupy Chang'an City, half of the Tang Dynasty will be theirs.
"Turi Khan, please speak! Before the dust settles, you must be extremely careful, there is no simple one in the Central Plains. Jieli Khan's face was solemn, he didn't expect Datang's resistance to be so fierce.
Not only did Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty go to the battlefield in person, but also the women and children standing above the city gate, especially the person who beat the drum, if there is no mistake, it should be the princess of the Tang Dynasty. With such a resolute will and such a high morale, he was very worried about capsizing in the gutter.
"Yes, Li Shimin is extremely treacherous and cunning, and now that he is on the battlefield, he must be trying to attract the attention of our army. And Li Jing, Li Ji and other generals under Li Shimin are not here, so the Great Khan should be careful that we are outflanked in the back. The middle-aged scribe interjected.
"No matter what, the archers slaughtered Li Shimin for me first!" Tuli Khan looked at Li Shimin, who had killed dozens of his good sons in front of him, and listened to the words of the two, and immediately hated Li Shimin. said to the general standing next to him.
With Tuli's order, the archers naturally did not dare to slack off, and as for whether they would be injured by mistake, they didn't care. As long as Li Shimin is killed, it will be a great achievement.
Whoosh
Several bows and arrows were shot in the direction where Li Shimin was, and the archers were all Turkic marksmen, so it can be said that each arrow was shot towards Li Shimin's vital point.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Feeling the thick crisis, everyone was shocked. After Qin Qiong waved his hand to knock out a sharp arrow, he was unable to knock out another arrow. There was no way, Qin Qiong quickly twisted his body and used his body to block another arrow.
"Uncle Bao!"
Li Shimin saw that Qin Qiong had blocked an arrow for himself, and immediately shouted.
Although Qin Qiong was injured, the arrow did not hit the vital point, got up, and continued to meet the enemy.
Wei Chigong was in a hurry at this time, waved the golden whip in his hand, killed a few Hu soldiers in an instant, came to Qin Qiong's side, and said, "Shubao, how about it, can it be done." The Turkic old boy is not authentic, put a dark arrow, I will cover, you protect His Highness and evacuate first. Seeing the old boy like this, he is eyeing His Highness. β
Whoosh
Another dozen arrows!
This time, the three of them were not spared, all of them were hit by arrows, especially Wei Chigong after the break, and he was hit by several arrows in his body, and Li Shimin was also hit by an arrow in the back of his heart.
"Your Highness!! Minister, it doesn't seem to work!! Wei Chigong felt the changes in his body, and the blood gushing out of the corners of his mouth said vaguely.
"Uncle Bao, take Your Highness and leave!"
Li Shimin was seriously injured, and everyone on the gate of Chang'an City saw it clearly. The eldest grandson of the crown princess passed out even more, but soon woke up again, stood up and played the drum for her husband.
What happened in an instant was completely shocking Zhang Lie.
Zhang Lie felt as if he was too tricky, if it weren't for his own trickery, with Li Shimin's current status, he wouldn't have been able to go to the battlefield in person, but he went to the battlefield, even if it was a show, Cheng DΓΉ's show was too much.
Li Shimin can't die, he is going to die, he really can't believe what the Tang Empire will be like in the future.
Zhang Lie didn't say a word, took out a green capsule from the moonlight brocade box, bumped it lightly, and instantly a huge multiple rocket launcher appeared on his shoulder.
This is Zhang Lie's backhand, and in the Dragon Ball world, Zhang Lie has brought out a lot of capsules. It's just that because you can't put it back when you take it out, unless it's used, it will be put in a moonlight brocade box in the shape of a capsule.
This MLRS was collected by Zhang Lie at a stronghold of the Red Ribbon Legion. Although this kind of rocket artillery is in the Dragon Ball world, he and Son Goku can easily dodge. But against ordinary people, this thing is not small.
Zhang Lie didn't care about the others, he pulled the launch switch, and in an instant, seven thick barrels continued to spray out shells burning with red flames.
The shells pierced through the air, emitted a piercing chirp, and flew rapidly towards the positions of the Turkic Khan's central troops.
"Boom, boom!"
The earth-shattering sound sounded instantly, and soon in the area where the Turkic Khan was located, the fire was shining and the sound was terrifying.
Almost everyone was shocked by the scene in front of them, whether it was the Turkic soldiers or the sergeants of the Tang Dynasty, they all stared blankly at the explosion over there at this moment.
Follow the direction of the cannonball, and look at the man hanging high in the air. Especially the heavenly fire that keeps spewing out from the opponent's hands!
"Immortals, it's immortals!"
When the soldiers of Datang saw this scene, they immediately knelt on the ground, they were so happy, they were already desperate, and they saw their immortals coming. And as soon as he made a move, he put the Turkic base camp at an end.
Zhang Lie saw that after the hundreds of shells just now, the entire battlefield stood still at this moment, and he instantly put away the shells, but when he collected them, he found that something seemed to be wrong, and he almost didn't load them.
After putting away the weapon, Zhang Lie looked at the beings below and shouted loudly: "Surrender and avoid death!" β
Zhang Lie's voice was full of momentum, and it could be clearly heard within a radius of dozens of miles.
The Turkic soldiers looked at the gods standing above them, and then at the large pit left behind by the fire. Reluctantly, he dropped his weapon and fell to his knees.
Li Shimin didn't expect that at a critical time, it was Zhang Lie who made a move. He also thought that Zhang Lie had returned to the fairy world and would not come back for a short time. Unexpectedly, he appeared at a critical time, and saved his life and saved his Datang.
"The people of the world thank you for the immortals!" Li Shimin knelt down in front of Zhang Lie and kowtowed respectfully to thank him. At this moment, he was sincere, if it weren't for Zhang Lie, he and his Datang would be finished.
"Jingde, Jingde, Jingde is not good, Shangxian, please save him!" Although Qin Qiong was also seriously injured, he could still hold on, but Wei Chigong, who was hit by several arrows in his body, couldn't. However, he smiled when he saw that the immortals made a move and wiped out the Turkic army in an instant. He knew that the Tang Dynasty, which he had fought for all his life, had saved.
Zhang Lie saw the scene just now. didn't think much about it, and threw three immortal beans directly at the three of them.
