Chapter 1021: Trapped in a Jedi
The wolf-like Datang Iron Rider galloped across the vast sandy land, and the Guizi army in front of it was smashed like a broken crockpot! Regardless of the siege they are in, the first standard iron cavalry bravely marches forward in the crowd of Qiuzi army, forward, forward! Straight to the big pole standing under Yancheng!
The Qiuzi army blocking in front of him was like a river broken by the sharp bow of a ship, invincible with iron hooves and horizontal swords, the enemy's flesh and blood flew sideways, and the strict formation was torn apart!
Guo Xiaoke sat on horseback and commanded the battle in the rear.
He didn't expect that the Qiuzi Congress would accumulate so many troops in the national capital, and he didn't expect that the resistance of the Qiuzi army would be so resolute! Under the strong combat power of the Tang Army and the coalition forces of various ministries, even if the losses are heavy, they will still fight to the death!
Guo Xiaoke didn't want to suffer too much loss under the capital of Qiuci Kingdom, his troops were limited, and after annihilating Qiuci, he would continue to make a roundabout eastward march to sweep away the Yanqi Kingdom! His goal was to annihilate all the rebel forces in the Western Regions, to deter all the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and to uproot the Turkic forces in the Western Regions.
He wants to be the king of the Western Regions!
Therefore, Guo Xiaoke decisively ordered his own troops to implement the decapitation tactic and directly take the opponent's rear position. Where Daxu is, it must be the place where King Qiuzi drives! As long as the king of Qiuzi can be captured or beheaded, all the Qiuzi army will be defeated without a fight......
When the "decapitated" troops drove straight into the attack not far from the Qiuci army, the Qiuci army, which had been resisting fiercely, began to disagree, and when the wind-blowing Daxu hurriedly retreated into the city, the rout began.
The Qiuzi army, which had just returned to a strict formation, was like a collapsing beach castle in an instant, scattering and fleeing in all directions, and immediately gave way to the city gate not far away.
After the battle, Guo Xiaoke saw that the opportunity could not be lost, and immediately commanded the army to give up the pursuit of the rout, and attack the city gate with all his might!
When attacking the fortification, the Tang army retreated moderately and gave up the position of the vanguard to Tiele and other allied forces, and at this time it was impossible for the Tang army to rush to the front as cannon fodder. And Tiele and other allied forces were also willing to do so, because rushing to the front meant a rich reward after victory......
Arrows rained down from the city, and the coalition forces braved the arrows to climb the city walls with ladders and dozens of men carrying huge bumping logs against the city gates.
Guo Xiaoke personally supervised the formation and shouted: "The first to ascend is meritorious three times, and the reward is hundreds!" ”
This is used to boost morale.
The project is the most casualty, if there is not enough reward, who is willing to die?
There will be brave men under the heavy reward, the poor and brave Tiele and other tribal soldiers suddenly roared and charged, and the sharp arrows were just gritting their teeth and cutting off the shaft of the arrow with the scimitar in their hands, allowing the arrow cluster to remain in the body and continue to charge with red eyes!
The military discipline of the Tang Dynasty has always been strict, and there has never been anything like being greedy for meritorious service rewards and other things. In exchange for the solid life of his children and grandchildren's families, and even in exchange for a serious Tang household registration, that is to earn!
Otherwise, what is the life of this weed?
The charge was fierce and fierce, and before the gates could be slammed open, the soldiers under the city had already climbed the ladder to the top of the wall! A member of the Iron Le Warrior held a steel knife in his mouth, climbed the ladder with a knife in one hand and jumped up to the city with the other hand, and held the steel knife in his mouth in his hand.
The soldiers behind him took advantage of this gap to pour in, and finally occupied a place at the head of the city, and the soldiers behind also continued to fight along the city wall into the city.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the Qiuzi army defending the city instantly broke and fled.
The city was in chaos.
Some Tang troops took advantage of the situation from the city wall and opened the city gate.
Guo Xiaoke was ecstatic, raised his arms and shouted: "Kill in!" Kill it! The destruction of the turtles is today! ”
The Tang army beside him got the order, and immediately followed behind the coalition forces of various departments and frantically entered Yancheng!
"Dashuai, why be in a hurry, be careful of deception!"
There were people around him who shouted to dissuade them.
Guo Xiaoke turned his head to look, but it was Ashina Zhong.
Ashina Zhong was originally a Turkic little Khan, formerly known as Ashina Suni Lost, because of the merit of capturing Jieli Khan, His Majesty Li Er worshiped Ashina Zhong as the general of the Zuotun Guard, and in the ninth year of Zhenguan, he was promoted to the general of the Right Guard, commanding the coalition forces of Tiele and other departments, fighting bravely and loyal to the Tang Dynasty.
Ashina Zhong has a reputation among Tiele and other departments, and Guo Xiaoke does not dare to be too contemptuous, but this person hits the morale of the army at this moment, which makes him extremely unhappy, and he shouts angrily: "The army is defeated like a mountain, what can be done?" ”
Ashina Zhong persuaded: "Marshal Mingjian, although the Qiuzi army was defeated, its formation was not chaotic, and it was in good order when it was defeated, so I can't say that there is any ambush in this Yancheng." ”
Seeing that the monstrous feat of exterminating the Guizi Kingdom is at his fingertips, where is Guo Xiaoke willing to listen? Even if there was an ambush in the city, he was convinced that with the bravery of the Tang army and the fierceness of the allied forces, he would be able to achieve the final victory!
When even angrily reprimanded: "Hugh wants to disturb the morale of our army and hit morale!" The army of Qiuzi has been defeated, how can it be possible to reorganize against our army? If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame this marshal for engaging in military law! ”
Ashina Zhong was so frightened that he didn't dare to say more.
is trusted by His Majesty Li Er, he is just a Turkic who has surrendered inside, Han and Hu are different, how dare he anger Guo Xiaoke at this time? had no choice but to lead his generals to rush into the city, but he always paid attention to the situation left and right, and immediately withdrew from the city once he found that something was wrong.
The army poured into the city, and the Qiuci army had already collapsed, and the streets and alleys were full of Qiuci soldiers who were scattered and fleeing, as well as the Tang army and the allied forces of various ethnic groups who were chasing and killing from behind. As soon as Guo Xiaoke entered the city, he strictly restrained the army under his command, and it was absolutely not allowed to trespass on people's houses, rob shops, annihilate prostitution, plunder, burn, kill and rob, and violators would be executed!
With Hou Junji's experience, who dares to be careless and negligent?
Is Hou Junji's merit in destroying Gaochang great? It was because of the lack of strict restraint of the army after entering the city that most of the entire Gaochang City was destroyed, and finally he was impeached by the imperial history, forcing him to embark on the road of no return to rebellion, and his reputation was in vain.
The Qiuzi soldiers were driven by the Tang army like a flock of sheep, scurrying like headless flies, and most of them were attacked by the Tang army from the west of the city, and they ran away from the east city. Yancheng was not big, and it didn't take much effort to run away from the Qiuzi soldiers in the city, except for a few who were captured.
Guo Xiaoke doesn't care about those soldiers who fled, his purpose is Wangcheng!
As long as the King of Qiuci is in his hands, the entire Qiuzi Kingdom will never be able to make any waves!
"Shhh...... What is this, slimy, and smelling so weird? ”
Many soldiers found a black and sticky substance in the drainage ditches on both sides of the road, and the ditches were everywhere, exuding a pungent and strange smell, and they couldn't help but be surprised.
Guo Xiaoke walked along the main road to the Qiuzi King City in the center of the city, and found this abnormality on the way, and immediately sent soldiers to check around the city, and the feedback was that almost all the drainage ditches in the city had this thing......
Although I don't know what this is, there is always a strange thing about such a large-scale appearance in the city. Guo Xiaoke is also a generation of famous generals, with good military literacy, and immediately realized that he was afraid that things would be extraordinary, and when he ordered: "Search the royal city immediately, and the king of Qiuzi and Ben Shuai will be found out in the shortest possible time, and then the whole army will withdraw from the city!" ”
"No!"
The surrounding soldiers responded with a bang, and they were about to rush into the royal city.
At this moment, Guo Xiaoke only heard the sound of "Peng" ringing in his ears, as if something had been ignited, and then his eyes were filled with a flame that seemed to rise from hell!
The boundless fire burned without warning, spreading wildly at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye, and the flames and thick smoke enveloped the entire Yancheng in an instant, burning heat, pungent smell, and billowing smoke......
The entire Yancheng is like an eighteen-story purgatory!
And the culprit is the viscous liquid that comes from the drains!
"What's going on? Put out the fire now! ”
"No, this fire can't be extinguished......"
"Oops, it's not good, this thing can't be glued to my body, save me......"
Instead of extinguishing the flames, the soldiers who put out the flames were stained with the black oil and the flames spread to themselves, and they fell to the ground with a wail of pain, and in a short time they were burned to black charcoal!
"Quick! Hurry back! ”
Guo Xiaoke's eyes are split!
