With more than 20,000 fresh troops under the command of Feng Hebi joining the battle, the situation in Jiumao Pass changed again.

After hundreds of hot air balloons arrived in the sky above the Pass, they dropped thunderstorms one after another, so that the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty did not dare to fight in a military formation anymore, and they scattered separately.

Under the command of the generals, the soldiers tried their best to mix with the Dali army. At this time, these Dali troops seemed to be their talismans.

However, this also allowed the Dali army to gain a foothold in the city, and the retreat trend was eased.

The army of Fenghebi outside the gate approached the city head without hindrance with siege equipment.

A number of ladders were erected on the city wall, and many Dali soldiers climbed up to the top of the city along the ladders.

They effortlessly took the eastern wall of Jiumao Pass. Then, everywhere there were Dali soldiers running down the city.

In the absence of shells, the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army was brave, and the losses gradually increased.

However, when they learned that Zhang Jue had arrived with a large army, all the generals still led their soldiers to fight to the death.

Even Zhao Dongting joined the fight.

He, Kong Qiangu, Qi Wulie, and those Bauhinia Mountain Villa masters were constantly shuttling through the crowd. On a night like this, it's even harder to catch their traces.

The fighting around the city gate was extremely fierce.

The soldiers on both sides were filling with human lives. You advance and I retreat, you retreat and I advance, and it is difficult to solve the killing.

The momentum of the Dali army is far inferior to that of the Great Song Forbidden Army, and at this time, some people may want to retreat, but they can't even retreat.

The army outside the Guanguan continued to swarm into the Yongdao, which forced them to continue to fight with the Great Song Forbidden Army.

The situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for the Great Song Forbidden Army.

Originally, there were only 8,000 soldiers, but until now, they are just like big trees in the torrent, and they seem to be about to be washed away.

At this time, outside the pass, Feng Hebi also ordered the scouts to rush to Luoxian Pass and other places to report the news. He was clearly trying to gather all the forces under his command.

Duan Shi and Feng Hebi sat in the chariot together, and said meaningfully: "Marshal Feng is going to fight a decisive battle with the Song army?" ”

Feng Hebi said: "If we don't fight a decisive battle, we can only be eaten by the Song army one by one." What does the prince think? ”

Duan Shi sighed: "These Song armies are indeed powerful, much more powerful than the army we put together. ”

Saying that, his eyes looked deeply at Feng Hebi, and said: "In this decisive battle, can Marshal Feng have confidence?" ”

Feng Hebi asked Duan Shi rhetorically, "Does the prince want to hear the truth or a lie?" ”

Duan Shi said: "How about the truth? What about lies? ”

Feng Hebi said: "If you listen to lies, then our army will destroy Zhang Jue's Song army." And to tell the truth, if Zhang Jue arrives with his army, our chances of winning are probably less than fifty percent. ”

Duan Shi frowned slightly, "The truth is really not as good as the lie......"

He let out a long sigh again, "Just because of the surprise attack of thousands of iron cavalry of the Song army, we have been forced to such a situation, if we lose, what should we do?" ”

Feng Hebi was silent for a while when he heard this, suddenly sneered, put it next to Duan Shi's ear, and said in a low voice: "If you lose, you will sacrifice your life for the country." Could it be ...... Does the prince have any other thoughts? ”

Duan Shi didn't care, and only asked, "Could it be that Marshal Feng didn't have it?" ”

The smile on the corner of Feng Hebi's mouth gradually converged, "Let's talk about it after this battle!" If we win, there is still hope. ”

With that, he looked back in the direction of Changsha.

Inside, the fight continues.

Only at this time, Zhang Jue finally led the army over.

He led nearly 20,000 foot soldiers, but only two infantry regiments poured directly towards the city.

Many of the soldiers were still a kilometer away from the city gates.

This is the cupola gunner in the army.

The Tiangu and Tiangui armies, as the regular forbidden army group armies, have as many as 100 sky-high guns in the army, plus the 20 of the special regiment, which is a full 120.

Although the Flying Sky Army is a special forbidden army, there are no cupola cannons in the army, but the 240 cupola cannons against the Dali army are less than 400 hot air balloons, which is more than enough.

When the cupola gunners set up the cupola in the night, they aimed at the glowing hot air balloons in the night sky.

And those hot air balloons of the Dali army saw that the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty suddenly came to the city gate with torches, and they wanted to destroy them and spread towards this pass.

At present, the two armies in the pass are fighting, and for them, it is obviously more important to resist these Great Song reinforcements than to support the robes below.

These hot air balloon troops under the command of Feng Hebi have not yet suffered from the cupola, and they don't know that there are already hundreds of cupola gunners aiming at them in the night.

"Fire!"

With the roar of the general, there was an instant flash of fire on the ground.

One by one, the shells burst out of the cupola chamber and shot high into the air.

Then, a ball of fire exploded in the air.

In an instant, hundreds of hot air balloons of the Dali Army burst in the air and were blown apart.

The flames almost lit up the ground inside the city.

There are not many soldiers inside and outside the pass who looked up at the sky, stunned.

Hundreds of hot air balloons exploded at the same time, and this scene seemed to be the end of the world.

Such shouts soon erupted in the Great Song Forbidden Army in Guannai, "Reinforcements are coming!" Zhang Shuai is here! ”

They were pleasantly surprised.

And those Dali soldiers were panicked.

Guanwai Feng Hebi and Duan Shi were also slightly discolored in the army.

Feng Hebi sighed: "Zhang Jue's army has arrived......"

At this moment, this high-ranking talent in the Ghost Valley Academy looked at the hot air balloon that exploded in the air, and there was an extremely helpless look in his eyes.

He admits that there is nothing wrong with his tactical command. The reason why it has fallen into the current situation is that the combat effectiveness of the Dali army is too far behind that of the Song army.

This gap cannot be bridged by tactics.

Duan Shi also looked up at the hot air balloons in the night sky, with no expression on his face, and only said, "Cupola cannon...... It looks like it's going to lose. ”

Feng Hebi did not answer him.

Because at this time, there were flames in the air again.

The cupola gunners in Zhang Jue's army fired the second wave of shells in unison.

Although the hot air balloon of the Dali army had retreated out of the city in panic at this time, the speed was slow. In the blink of an eye, more than half of it was lost.

"Kill!"

Zhang Jue waved his sword in front of the army, leading all the foot soldiers in the two armies of Tiangui and Tiangu to swarm and kill under the city.

They are imposing.

Although the number of people is still far less than that of the Dali army, the momentum that erupted made the Dali soldiers at the head of the city feel a little chill in their hearts.

If they continue to fight like this, even if they have a numerical advantage, I am afraid that they can only fight with these Song troops and lose both.

And at this time, there was another cannon shot.

Only a few dozen hot air balloons of the Dali army flew out of the city, and they were able to escape outside the range of the cupola.

The drums outside the gate were thunderous, and Feng Hebi never gave the order to sing gold.

The Dali army still rushed to the road, or climbed the ladder to the top of the city.

Under the city walls of the pass, soldiers from both sides are fighting.

The smell of blood was already in the air.

The blood and rain mixed and stained the ground red.

Thousands of soldiers of the Great Song Army guarded the pass, and now they are fighting a decisive battle with tens of thousands of Dali troops. This war, not surprisingly, will go down in history.

In just a few minutes, the tide of battle changed.

A little deeper in the pass, nearly 2,000 fires suddenly appeared.

It's a hot air balloon!

It's all hot air balloons.

Nearly 2,000 hot air balloons have been lifted off one after another, spreading everywhere, and in a short period of time, they are almost all over Jiumao Pass.

The Dali army at the head of the city was completely dumbfounded.

They had obviously never seen such a battle.

Although there are also hot air balloons in the Dali army, the Heaven-Shaking Army can be compared with the Great Seinfeld Heavenly Army. And their heaven-shaking army has been scattered among the various armies.

Duan Qilin was still guarding against those tribal armies in the end, and it was impossible to hand over the crafting process of the weapon of the hot air balloon to them. Because, this is his reliance on deterring Dali.

The fight didn't last long.

As Ren Wei led the flying army to gradually approach the sky above the city, the Dali army at the head of the city and outside the city couldn't help but retreat to the back.

"Run!"

"Run!"

Even if there were tens of thousands of them, close to 2,000 hot air balloons would be enough to destroy them.

Looking at the starry hot air balloons that spread across the night sky, few people can have the courage to resist.
