Chapter 29: Heavenly Thunder Shock Divine Beast

The drums of war roared incessantly, and the swords and guns fought non-stop.

The old marshal Hu Yanlie invested 50,000 troops to attack the city at one time, not to mention a temptation, nor a general attack, but the scale was indeed very large.

The two sides fought fiercely, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye. The Tiger Prison Pass was too majestic, and the Tianchu army still failed to climb the city wall.

And after an hour of rushing and killing, the 50,000 troops invested by Tianchu suffered heavy casualties, and they were already exhausted, their morale had dropped, and they could no longer launch a fierce attack.

"When, dang, dang, dangใ€ใ€ใ€" Tianchu Mingjin withdrew his troops, and the surviving Tianchu soldiers were like being amnestied one by one, and their physical strength had been exhausted, and at this moment it seemed to be resurrected with full blood in an instant, like a sharp arrow from the string, rushing to their own camp.

After an hour of fierce fighting, more than half of the Tianchu army suffered casualties, the army returned to the camp, and today's fighting came to an end for the time being.

Both sides have a tacit understanding, each cleaning the battlefield, carrying the fallen soldiers, even if it is close at hand, will not continue to fight, this is the rule of the battlefield since ancient times.

There is no win or defeat in an offensive and defensive battle, there is no win or loss, and each has its own damage.

After noon, on a hillside a few miles outside the Tianchu camp, more than 20,000 Tianchu martyrs were ready to be cremated collectively, and tens of thousands of robes were given a simple farewell to them.

Before the fire was lit, he saw flags flying in the direction of Tianchu, and the mighty Vermilion Bird Legion arrived.

The Suzaku army camped on the side of the Blue Dragon Legion, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally attended the farewell ceremony of the fallen martyrs, which can be regarded as an explanation from the old marshal Huyan to the fallen soldiers. At the same time, it is also an explanation to the Qinglong Army that failed to recapture the Tiger Prison Pass as soon as possible.

Bidding farewell to the martyrs who died in the first battle, the prince and the old marshal Huyanlie were stationed in the camp of the Qinglong Army, and in the center, the Chinese army tent had already been prepared for His Royal Highness the prince, and the generals at all levels were lined up on the left and right, waiting for orders.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not procrastinate, and will hold a meeting in time to listen to the current situation of the battle at Tiger Prison Pass and discuss the next strategic deployment.

In the end, it was decided that the Suzaku army would first set up camp, build fortifications, and wait for the arrival of the Xuanwu army before launching a general attack together.

In fact, although the four major legions of Tianchu are of equal status, and they are all comprehensive legions, cavalry, infantry, spearmen, archers, etc., are all equipped, but they also have their own emphasis.

The dominant class of the Blue Dragon Army is spearmen, which have strong attack power, but lack defense.

The superior class of the White Tiger Army is cavalry, which moves quickly and is extremely powerful, but has no obvious advantage against spearmen.

The Suzaku Army's superior class is archers, which have extremely strong long-range attack capabilities, but their movement speed and defense capabilities are slightly lacking.

The dominant class of the Xuanwu Army is heavy infantry, heavy armor and heavy shields, and the defense is extremely strong, but the attack power and movement speed are slightly insufficient.

Therefore, although it was imminent to seize the Tiger Prison Pass, after discussion, it was still decided that it would be more appropriate to wait for the arrival of the Xuanwu Army before fighting together.

The next day, the Suzaku Army continued to build fortifications and waited for the arrival of the Xuanwu Army.

Another half a day passed, and the Xuanwu Army finally arrived. The brave and belligerent Xiang Tianba was the last to arrive, he was really aggrieved, if he was the first to arrive, it is estimated that the tiger prison would have been full of bones and bones, but fortunately, the king of Chu assigned him to lead the speed Xuanwu army, so as to avoid that senseless sacrifice.

Two days later, the armies of all walks of life had been encamped, and the original army of one million could not be assembled, but the main force was still nearly 700,000, and the momentum was extremely huge.

This is the first time that Tianchu has dispatched such a large-scale army to fight collectively, and looking at the entire history of Kyushu, it is difficult to compare with the battle.

Prince Yun knew that the time for the decisive battle had arrived.

Whether Da Yan can hold the Tiger Prison Pass or not is up to here.

If you win, the tiger prison will truly belong to Dayan, and the soldiers will go out of the Xiongguan Pass and set foot in Kyushu, which is just around the corner.

If you lose, your previous achievements will be wasted, and the tiger and wolf will enter the customs, and you will have the worry of destroying the country.

Therefore, this battle is related to the national fortune of the Great Yan and the rise and fall of the world.

"Knock, knock, knock, knockใ€ใ€ใ€ใ€" Facing the rising sun, the sound of heavy war drums sounded again.

Tianchu once again sent a fierce general to call the battle, and Prince Yun came to the city in person, resolutely not opening the door to meet the battle, and laughed at the stupidity of Tianchu's soldiers to call the battle.

There are Da Yan soldiers shouting, I have a strong city that I don't defend, open the door and fight with you, is my Da Yan soldiers as brain-dead as you?

There are even more Dayan soldiers shouting, thanking Tianchu for his century-old experience, willing to make a wedding dress, and establishing such a majestic pass for my Dayan.

The war has not yet begun, but it is full of gunpowder, and they are all holding their breath.

The big war is about to break out.

Seeing that the Great Yan Army would not open the door to fight, Tianchu launched a fierce attack, the heavy infantry of the Xuanwu Army was in front, the infantry of the Qinglong Army was covering, the strong archers of the Vermilion Bird Army followed, and the catapults in the rear were also slowly pressed, orderly and fierce.

The Great Yan Army was also ready for war.

At 1,500 paces, the Xuanwu heavy infantry had already entered the range of the siege crossbow, and the powerful crossbow arrows of "Huh, Huh, Huh, Huh, Huhใ€ใ€ใ€" were once again powerful.

At the same time, dozens of large red balls also flew out from the head of the Tiger Prison Pass, like huge stone bullets issued by catapults, but they were regular in shape and red all over, which was very eye-catching.

It was too late, but it was fast, and almost part of the crossbow arrows and heavenly thunder fire bombs entered the Tianchu army one after another. The power of the oversized crossbow bolts has not diminished, and they can still penetrate the Xuanwu heavy infantry, but the effect is slightly weaker than before, and it is rare to be able to connect more than three enemy troops.

But this time there was a thunder fire bomb that landed together, as soon as it touched the ground, there was a loud bang, bursting open, the fire was full of light, there was no grass within ten steps, and a fire bomb landed, which was the casualties of the Chu army in dozens of days.

More than a dozen people were killed in the battle, and it is difficult to count the number of people who were ignited by the fire oil. Dozens of fire bombs fell to the ground, roaring incessantly, flames erupting everywhere, and the lethality was shocking.

Coupled with the thunderous sound and the sky-high firelight, the Tianchu soldiers who were killed for a while trembled, and even Xiang Tianba, who had always been fierce and fierce, was taken aback, so powerful, if he hit it head-on, he didn't dare to assert that he would survive.

A wave of heavenly thunder and fire bombs erupted, which actually made the 100,000 Tianchu army that was in full swing and fiercely charged.

Although there is a fate, continue to attack, but the previous sharp qi is gone.

Fortunately, the Celestial Thunder Fire Bomb did not continue to be projected like the siege crossbow. The Tianchu army continued to charge three hundred steps, and "boom, boom, boomใ€ใ€ใ€" another wave of heavenly thunder and fire bombs fell from the sky, and pieces of Tianchu soldiers returned to the Nine Heavens.

Although the number of Heavenly Thunder Fire Bullets projected each time is not very large, and the frequency of projection is not high, the pressure on the Tianchu soldiers is better than tens of thousands of strong bows and hard crossbows.

Three hundred steps in one round, six hundred steps away from the city wall, Dayan's Heavenly Thunder Fire Bomb has been projected four times, and it has already taken the lives of thousands of Tianchu soldiers. And the strong archers of the Tianchu Vermilion Bird Legion are about to be able to start launching an effective counterattack.
