Chapter 704: The Battle of Chang'an
The autumn winds are raging.
The weather in Chang'an was gloomy, as if a heavy rain was coming.
When Li Yu came to the outside of Chang'an City with his soldiers and horses, Shen Tiannan was already waiting with his Flying Army.
This made Li Yu a little shocked.
He thought that the Tang army was like a bamboo, and the Qi army should be very jealous of them, and if Shen Tiannan was smart, he was afraid that he would definitely stick to Chang'an and consume them, instead of setting up a battle outside Chang'an City.
But Shen Tiannan really did this, which was a very good thing for Li Yu.
Although it was a long journey, Li Yu definitely couldn't miss this opportunity.
The two armies confronted each other.
Shen Tiannan looked at Li Yu, and his eyes seemed to be bursting with fire.
"Okay, you Li Yu, you actually bullied my Qi country like this, today, I want you to die here."
Shen Tiannan scolded angrily, and Li Yu said: "If you kill my Tang envoy, you will have to pay the price." ”
The two sides said a word, Shen Tiannan laughed, he didn't believe that Li Yu sent troops just because the Tang envoy was killed, even if the Tang envoy was not killed, Tang Yu saw the situation of the Qi State, and he was afraid that he would definitely take action.
These are just excuses.
The two didn't continue talking, Shen Tiannan shouted angrily, and rushed over directly.
The Flying Army had the courage to fight to the death, and just as they rushed over, the Tang Army's mechanical crossbow had already been launched.
Sharp arrows rained down, and soon, the soldiers and horses of Qi who rushed in front were hit by arrows one after another.
Shen Tiannan had already heard of the Tang Army's mechanical crossbow, and after seeing it today, he realized that what he said was true, but the speed of Qi was also very fast, so the role of the mechanical crossbow was quickly lost.
The soldiers and horses on both sides were immediately killed.
The Flying Army of Qi is very powerful, they are all full armor, they are a winning army, they are very arrogant, but after encountering the Tang Army, their arrogance will soon be low into the dust.
When the Tang army killed, even if the Flying Army was fully armored, it was still quickly hacked and hacked to death by the Tang army, or even directly cut in half.
These fierce generals in the majestic sea are even more rushing back and forth in the Qi army, as if entering a no-man's land.
After rushing and killing like this for a while, the Mo Dao team came out, and the Qi army that killed them had no power to fight back.
Shen Tiannan was originally very confident that he would turn the situation around at once, but after the battle really happened, he found that the difference between his strength and the strength of the Tang Army was too great.
And this difference is not in the physical fitness of the soldiers, but in the blades of the soldiers.
The blades of the Tang army were too sharp and advanced, and they were no match at all.
One by one, the Qi army fell, Shen Tiannan's forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and at this moment, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the sky.
Immediately after that, it began to rain heavily.
The rain was pouring down, and the wind was a little cold.
Shen Tiannan turned his head and glanced at his Qi army, seeing that the Qi army had been killed by the Tang army and had no fighting spirit, he knew that it was no longer possible to continue to kill, so he did not hesitate and immediately retreated.
"Back to the city, back to the city."
When the Qi army returned to the city, the heavy rain was still falling, and the Tang army could be said to have won a big victory in this battle.
"Holy Lord, let's also set up camp for the time being, and wait for the rain to stop before attacking the city." Xu Maogong suggested, Li Yu nodded, if it weren't for this heavy rain, they could indeed attack the city in one go, but this rain was too big, they could only wait.
--------------------
The Tang army set up camp in Wuli outside Chang'an City, and Shen Tiannan fled back to the palace.
Shen Tiannan, who returned to the palace, looked very bad, he never thought that Tang Guo had become so powerful unconsciously.
I knew that the Tang State had become such a country, and when the envoys of the Liang State asked them to send troops to the Tang State, they should not hesitate to send troops.
Now, the Liang State and the Turks dare not make a move against the Tang State, they can't even find reinforcements, in the face of such a Tang State, how can they say victory?
Remorse, remorse.
Shen Tiannan scolded bitterly in the palace and smashed a lot of things.
And at this time, a woman suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Shengshang, the Tang army is brave, and they are enemies, there is no certainty of victory, in the eyes of the concubines, only by holding on to the city, and at the same time consuming with the Tang State, in this way, there is the possibility of victory."
The woman is charming, she is Shen Tiannan's advisor, and she is also Shen Tiannan's woman, her name is Xiao Yu.
Shen Tiannan glanced at Xiao Yu, if it was before, when he saw Xiao Yu wearing thin clothes, he would definitely be unable to help but do her here, but now, she is not in the mood.
"Hold on to the city, I'm afraid it won't last long, I heard that the Tang army has a siege weapon, as long as they attack it, Chang'an City can't be defended."
is not the opponent of the Tang army, and the Tang army has siege weapons, which make the fate of the Qi country stormy.
However, at this time, Xiao Yu shook his head: "Holy Lord, it's not impossible, now that Jingzhou and other places have been controlled by the Tang army, we might as well put pressure on those places to overwhelm Li Yu, in this way, he will naturally give up attacking the city." ”
"What do you mean?" "Now that the Qi country is in turmoil, there are a lot of refugees from all over the country, the saint might as well send a team to drive all these refugees to Jingzhou, these refugees are all going to eat, and the weather is cold, they still have to wear clothes, if Li Yu can't solve the problem of these refugees, the rear will be chaotic, at that time, Li Yu is still in the mood to continue to attack Chang'an City here?"
The chaos in Qi has indeed caused many refugees to be unable to solve, and some refugees have rebelled, but more refugees are struggling to find a way to survive.
After hearing Xiao Yu's method, Shen Tiannan's expression finally relaxed, and he nodded: "What you said is indeed good, as long as you can force the Tang army back, and when my Qi country regroupes, it will definitely destroy the Tang country, and it will be a shame." ”
After saying this, Shen Tiannan immediately ordered to go down and let people drive all the refugees from all over the country to Jingzhou City.
The rain was still falling, and where Qi Rou was held, Xiaoqing quickly heard the news, of course, in order to find out the news, she still made some sacrifices.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess, the good news, Li Yu led the army and directly defeated Shen Tiannan, I think it won't be long before they will be able to capture Chang'an City, and at that time, Her Royal Highness the Princess will be able to regain his freedom."
Xiaoqing seems to be very innocent, even if she knows how to use her body in exchange for what she wants, but his heart is still pure, thinking that Li Yu is here for Li Yu.
thought that after killing Shen Tiannan, Qi would still be Qi, and Qi Rou would still be a princess.
The news of Tang Jun's victory didn't make Qi Rou very excited, she was just stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then held her chin and looked at the rain outside.
The wind and rain are very urgent, and I don't know how many leaves have been blown off. A sparrow hid under the eaves and waited for the rain to stop.
