Chapter 580: Fierce Battle of Dawan City (Fifth Update)

On the morning of May 25, 431 of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liu Ji took Zhang Shaohua, Liu Meng, Zhang Baofeng, Chen Hao, Chen Zhong, Zhang He, Wei Yan, Xu Huang, Jiang Wei, as well as one hundred and sixty-four puppet bodyguards, as well as eighty second-rate generals and two hundred third-rate generals, disguised as a caravan, and quietly left Gaochang City.

Although a war broke out between the Breakers and the Great Wan Kingdom, neither side blocked the trade routes in the warring areas, and it was difficult to do so, after all, neither of these two forces could block the desert between the oases.

Only Zhang Liang and Jia Xu saw off Liu Ji and others, Jia Xu looked at the team in the distance, and said to Zhang Liang with a worried face: "The lord doesn't know why, he has to be in danger in person?" If something unexpected happens, we ...... Alasβ€”"

Zhang Liang said with a wry smile: "It's useless to say anything now, I just hope that the lord can return to the Western Regions Protectorate safely, otherwise, let alone this war with Dawan Kingdom, our entire Broken Army will face a huge crisis!" ”

"Can the lord take Dawan City?"

"I don't know, but I hope the lord can create a miracle again!"

The number of Liu Ji's team reached four hundred and fifty-four, and the number of war horses was even higher, more than two thousand, with an average of five war horses per person, and these war horses carried water, food, and a batch of silk used as goods, and their main role was to allow Liu Ji and others to transfer.

Liu Ji took this team and avoided various cities as much as possible along the way, and even in the area where the current army of the Broken Capture Army and the army of Dawan Kingdom were fighting, Liu Ji directly chose to detour in the desert, but because Liu Ji and others could constantly change horses, Liu Ji and others were not slow to hurry.

Of course, it is inevitable to encounter some Dawan troops on the way, if there are a large number of Dawan troops, Liu Ji will take people to bypass it far away, if it is a small group of Dawan troops, then Liu Ji will take people to eat them directly, and then destroy the corpses.

Thanks to the small number of people in this team led by Liu Ji, it has not attracted the attention of the Dawan army, Liu Ji and others finally only took eight days to enter Karawan Province, where the capital of Dawan is located, and in Karawan Province, it took another two days to come to Dawan City unimpeded.

The country of Dawan has not been affected by the outbreak of war with the broken army, still a scene of singing and dancing, as the capital of Dawan City, there is no trace of war, on the morning of June 5, Liu Ji and others dressed up caravan, almost without any waves into Dawan City, and then with the help of some Jin merchants in Dawan City, Liu Ji and others quickly rented a very large courtyard in Dawan City, and the real identity of these Jin merchants is the secret agent sent by Heishuitai to Dawan City.

On the night of June 5, Zhang He, Wei Yan, Xu Huang, and Jiang Wei, who were arranged to live in a room, were not sleepy, and Xu Huang said with a worried face: "I don't know where the elite troops that the lord said?" If we only rely on a few hundred of us, it is impossible to take Dawan City! ”

Jiang Wei then said: "Actually, we don't need to worry, since the lord said that a group of elite troops have secretly arrived in Dawan City, then there will definitely be a large number of soldiers to join us, just like when the lord led people to seize Pingliang City of the Qingyi Clan, the lord was like a trick, and suddenly conjured up hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, and finally captured Pingliang City in one fell swoop, forcing the Qingyi tribe to cede the entire western province, so that our northern capital Governor's Mansion has another slippery state." ”

Zhang He frowned at this time and said: "I just don't know how many elite troops the lord has mobilized this time, according to the intelligence of Heishuitai, inside and outside the city of Dawan City, a total of two cavalry corps and four infantry corps of Dawan are stationed, these six legions are among the army of Dawan Kingdom, they can be described as elite divisions, and the population of Dawan City exceeds five million, and the suburbs outside Dawan City also have a population of three or four million, if our troops are too small, it will be difficult to control the entire Dawan City." ”

Wei Yan said in a deep voice: "I feel that the lord will definitely mobilize a lot of elite troops this time, the four of us are all brigade captains, the lord brought all four of us this time, and also transferred more than 280 generals above Sima, indicating that the soldiers who secretly gathered in Dawan City are at least more than 100,000, maybe more than 200,000." ”

Xu Huang sighed and said: "Alas-I hope that the more elite troops who secretly gather in Dawan City this time, the better, if the capture of Dawan City fails, it doesn't matter if we all die in battle, but the lord must not make any mistakes!" ”

Zhang He, Wei Yan, and Jiang Wei, hearing Xu Huang's words, their faces became solemn, and at this moment, the voice of a puppet bodyguard suddenly came from outside the room, "General Zhang He, the lord asked you to immediately put on your armor and bring weapons to the backyard!" ”

The large compound rented by Liu Ji and others had a backyard with a small area, and when Zhang He came to the backyard neatly, he suddenly showed a look of shock, and the backyard was already densely packed with heavily armed soldiers.

"Lord...... Lord, these ...... What are these soldiers...... When did you come over? The sudden appearance of a large number of soldiers shocked Zhang He so much that Zhang He couldn't help but stumble a little when he spoke.

Liu Ji, who had already put on his armor, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "These soldiers belong to the ninth elite unit of our Broken Army, the name is Beifu Soldiers, there are 2,400 Beifu soldiers here, all of them came from the secret passage, you immediately take these 2,400 Beifu soldiers to attack the palace of Dawan City, and then there will be more Beifu soldiers who will join the troops under your command, and at all costs, you must capture the palace of Dawan City as soon as possible!" ”

Zhang He heard Liu Ji's order, and immediately took a deep breath: "The last general takes the order!" ”

After Zhang He left with 2,400 Beifu soldiers, Liu Ji immediately summoned three groups of Eastern Jin Beifu soldiers, and then asked a puppet bodyguard to find Wei Yan and ordered Wei Yan to take these 2,400 Eastern Jin Beifu soldiers to seize several city gates in the east of Dawan City.

Liu Ji also asked Zhang Shaohua, Liu Meng, and Zhang Baofeng to lead three groups of soldiers from the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Beifu to seize the gates of the other three sides of Dawan City, let Xu Huang and Chen Hao lead three groups of soldiers trapped in the camp to attack a barracks of the Dawan army in the city, and let Jiang Wei and Chen Zhong lead three groups of Tang Dynasty Mo sword soldiers to attack the barracks of another Dawan army in the city, there are only these two barracks of no small scale in Dawan City, and each barracks is stationed with half an infantry corps, that is, the army of 50,000 Dawan Kingdom.

Next, Liu Ji continued to summon elite soldiers from the system, and then asked those second-rate or third-rate generals who came to Dawan City with him to take groups of elite soldiers to support the attacking troops from all walks of life.

The Broken Army appeared too suddenly, the army of Dawan City was not prepared at all, and Liu Ji summoned elite soldiers very quickly, so that the attacking troops soon had tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and the battle to seize Dawan City had just broken out less than an hour, and the gates on all sides of Dawan City had been captured by the Broken Army, and at this time, the Dawan army outside the city had not rushed over to support.

However, the attack troops of the three-way broken army attacking the two barracks in the city and the palace of Dawan Kingdom encountered a lot of trouble, and Liu Ji immediately continued to send reinforcements to these three-way troops, and the shouts of killing in the entire Dawan City almost resounded in the sky.

"Bang-" Ye Man, the king of Dawan Kingdom, slapped the bookcase in front of him fiercely, and shouted with a gloomy face: "Who can tell this king how the Broken Army appeared in Dawan City?" ”

Prime Minister Sha Feige and more than a dozen ministers and generals looked at each other, all showing confused looks, they didn't know why a large number of troops of the broken army suddenly appeared in Dawan City, Prime Minister Sha Feige and more than a dozen ministers and generals were in chaos in the city, so they took the guards and family members of their respective mansions and hurried to the palace to escort.

Thanks to these ministers and generals who brought a lot of guards and family members from their respective mansions, otherwise they would not be able to stop tens of thousands of soldiers from the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Northern Mansions with only more than 5,000 guards and hundreds of royal guards in the palace.

Prime Minister Shafig immediately said urgently: "Your Majesty, the situation in the city is critical now, and the gates on all sides have now fallen into the hands of the Broken Army, which also indicates that it will be difficult for our army outside the city to enter the city quickly, and the two barracks in the city have also been attacked by the Broken Army, and it is impossible to send troops to support the Imperial Palace, so it is better to take advantage of the fact that the Imperial Palace has not been completely surrounded by the Imperial Palace, and the ministers will escort His Majesty the King to evacuate the Imperial Palace first!" ”

King Yeman snorted coldly and said: "Lone wants to see how capable the broken army is, Lone will not leave the palace, you immediately mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized in the city to reinforce the palace, and pass on the king's order, all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace should immediately receive weapons, and at the same time send an order to two cavalry legions and three infantry legions outside the city to enter Dawan City as soon as possible and destroy all the broken army in the city!" ”

Prime Minister Shafig opened his mouth and did not persuade King Yeman to evacuate the palace, Shafig knew King Yeman's character very well, and knew what King Yeman had decided, so it was useless for him to persuade him, so it was better to quickly find a way to mobilize more people to guard the palace!

After Liu Ji summoned all the 216,000 Eastern Jin Dynasty Northern Mansion soldiers, 102,000 Tang Dynasty Mo sword soldiers and 150,000 trapped camp soldiers stored in the system, he learned that Zhang He led more than 60,000 Eastern Jin Dynasty Northern Mansion soldiers and still did not take the most important palace in Dawan City, so Liu Ji took 164 puppet bodyguards and directly killed outside the palace in Dawan City.

"Lord, you ...... How did you get here? Give the last general some more time, and the last general will definitely knock down the palace of Dawan Kingdom! Zhang He, who was covered in blood, gasped and said to Liu Ji.

"How's your wound?" Liu Ji frowned and asked.

"Don't worry, the last general has some minor injuries on his body, there are many masters in the palace of Dawan Kingdom, the lord should go back and wait for the good news of the last general!" Zhang He now has more than 60,000 elite soldiers from the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Northern Mansion under his hands, but he is full of confidence.

Since Liu Ji came, of course, it was impossible to leave the palace of Dawan Kingdom like this, Liu Ji then directly ordered many puppet bodyguards under his command to join the attack on the palace, and Liu Ji was protected by eight puppet bodyguards with peerless military strength, and swept outside the palace.

However, as time passed, Liu Ji's brows became more and more wrinkled, and the enemy resisted here in the palace, unusually tenacious.

The sound of the battle in Dawan City lasted until dawn and did not disappear, but intensified, and the three infantry regiments and two cavalry regiments of Dawan State stationed outside the city began to attack the city gates and city walls in four directions of Dawan City at the same time from the second half of the night.

In Dawan City, the two barracks have been conquered by the Broken Army before dawn, and the entire infantry corps in these two barracks has almost been wiped out, but the most important palace in Dawan City, the battle is still going on, and the entire Dawan City has almost become a battlefield.

The people in Dawan City, knowing that a large number of troops of the Broken Army suddenly appeared in the city, spontaneously organized a team, and launched an extremely tragic street battle with the Broken Army in the city.

And the officials, generals, nobles, and wealthy businessmen in Dawan City organized all the men in their families to support the palace like crazy, and by the time dawn, the entire palace had become corpses all over the place.

Standing on the stone steps outside a palace, Yeman, the king of Dawan Kingdom, wearing armor, listened to the shouts of killing coming from all around the palace, turned to Prime Minister Shafig and asked, "Has the first wall of the palace been lost?" ”

The palace behind King Yeman is located within the third wall of the palace, and there are three fully enclosed walls in the entire palace.

Prime Minister Sha Feige hesitated for a moment and said: "The first wall of the palace cannot be said to have completely fallen into the hands of the Broken Army, the soldiers and civilians of our Dawan Kingdom are still fighting with the Broken Army for the control of the first wall of the Imperial Palace, and now we still have at least eighty or ninety thousand people here in the palace, and if they all retreat into the second wall, they will not be able to accommodate so many people." ”

King Yeman sighed and said: "Our Dawan City can be said to have experienced a catastrophe this time, and now there is a large-scale resistance in the city, only the palace should be left, I don't know when the troops outside the city will be able to attack the city?" Once the palace is lost, even if the troops outside the city enter the city, it will be useless! ”

Prime Minister Shafig said: "Your Majesty can rest assured, the three infantry corps and two cavalry corps currently stationed outside Dawan City are attacking the four walls and gates of Dawan City, and our troops in the palace are quite sufficient, and the spontaneous team of the people in the city is still converging on the palace, we will definitely be able to defend the palace and ensure the safety of His Majesty the King!" ”
