498th Battle of Thang Long City 16

Moreover, when Xie Feibao led his troops in a roundabout, he had to detour from the side gate in the southeast direction to the west gate of the imperial city, and the distance between them was too far, so they had to act quickly, Cai Dao wanted to divide troops to reinforce Xie Feibao, and he might not be able to catch up.

The north gate of the imperial city is naturally much closer to the west gate.

Moreover, the task of these two teams is not heavy, they only need to hurry and block the gates of the imperial city.

Of course, Cai Dao also assigned them a task and a time limit, and the two teams blocking the door must be in place before the time.

And Cai Dao began to 'cast spells' and blow up the city gate when he was in the middle of the day.

Under the stunned of both sides, Cai Dao used the 'palm thunder' to completely blow up the east gate of the imperial city of Dayue Kingdom. And the general Ruan Chong, who had high hopes from Li Qiande and Li Changjie, was also martyred.

In the face of such a heavenly might, Li Qiande, who has always been calm, is really afraid.

After knowing that the enemy army had entered the palace, Li Qiande was ready to go out of the north gate of the imperial city with the guards to join Li Changjie. His loyal general now has a heavy army in his hands, and once the two of them are combined, his life can be saved. As for the concubines and children in the palace, those who can be brought with them now have been brought with them, and the others can no longer take care of them.

didn't expect the other party's generals to be so clever and clever, and they actually divided their troops to block the north gate of the imperial city.

Li Qiande ordered the guards around him to desperately open a passage from the north gate, but due to the relative proximity, Zhi Kerou had already used the method taught to him by Cai Dao to build the proposed fortifications outside the north gate. Don't seek to kill the enemy, but to hinder the opponent's footsteps.

Naturally, it is still a trench and a chest wall, and Song Jun does not have to do it himself. Zhi Kerou came all the way and coerced many stragglers of the Dayue Forbidden Army who were scattered by Cai Dao with his blade. These people are the main force in digging trenches.

In this way, Li Gande commanded the guards around him to fight in the direction of the north gate of the imperial city for a full hour, and only advanced two distances to the trench in front. And Li Changjie still has no news there.

In desperation, Li Qiande had no choice but to retreat.

This battle was the second most tragic battle in the entire Battle of Thang Long City. In comparison, the martial arts natural cadres of these recruits of the Song Army were the guards beside Li Gande. However, the female general of Zhe Kerou is really too good.

Zhi Kerou's martial arts are not necessarily very high, but the bow in her hand is extremely sharp. Her archery skills are not inferior to Di'an's at all, and more than a dozen middle and low-level military attachés with very high martial arts in the Praetorian Guard have become her souls. The only difference between the two is that there is a natural gap between men and women in terms of physical strength.

Moreover, archery itself consumes a lot of arm strength, and it is simply unrealistic to expect Zhi Kerou to keep shooting like this.

However, in the face of such a marksman, when he thought of Song Jun's divine arm bow, Li Qiande became even more timid, he was really afraid. This is also one of the reasons why he did not dare to break through from the north gate.

If Li Qiande really had to do his best to break through from the north gate, Zhi Kerou and her 3,000 people would definitely not be able to stop Li Qiande and his party.

However, Cai Dao naturally wouldn't let this kind of thing happen, and after he 'cast a spell' to break through the city gate, he didn't stop his steps, but immediately waved his army into the palace of Da Yue Kingdom.

Cai Dao did not choose to go deeper, but went directly around the north gate along the city wall. I was afraid that there would be some accidents in Zhe Kerou, and I was even more afraid that Li Gande was really desperate.

Fortunately, after Cai Dao arrived, Li Gande had already evacuated before that.

Although Xie Feibao was a little later than the appointed time, because Li Qiande had chosen the north gate before, it also gave him and his soldiers time to breathe.

When the retreating Li Gande sent people to hurriedly investigate the situation outside the other two gates, when his men found Xie Feibao's team outside the west gate, the emperor of the Great Yue Kingdom had no choice but to flee from the south gate.

Fortunately, Li Gande did not go to the west gate, otherwise Xie Feibao's headquarters would not have a stable foothold, let alone fortifications, and his subordinates would not even be able to hold the knife in their hands steadily.

Afterwards, Xie Feibao's department only lost five soldiers in the middle of the road, and they really couldn't tell how they lost. At that time, the big guys were desperately on the road.

However, Zhe Kerou's department suffered the greatest losses among all the participating troops, with more than 1,000 killed on the spot alone, and more than half of the remaining soldiers were wounded. Facing the hand directly, his martial arts are not as good as people, his physical strength is not as good as that of people, and his body shape and strength are far from the enemy. Fortunately, thanks to Zhi Kerou, he was able to finally repel the Praetorian Guards of the Great Yue Kingdom.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it was this female general who desperately changed the entire battle situation in Thang Long City, and also laid the foundation for easily taking down Li Qiande.

During the three months of training for these recruits of the Song Dynasty, Cai Dao did not owe them anything, although the food provided was rewarded and punished at the beginning, but later, all the soldiers were able to eat a meal of meat every day.

However, after all, these soldiers are too thin, and the people who fight desperately with them are the carefully selected guards of the Great Yue Kingdom, the elite of the elite. Perhaps, these guards have not experienced the battlefield, but their work is genuine. Moreover, as the personal guard of the emperor of a country, Li Gande naturally will not treat them badly, and with good wine and meat, their foundation is naturally strong.

After Cai Dao saw this scene, he couldn't help but blame himself deeply, at that time, he should have transferred some people from his subordinates to Zhe Kerou. It's not that Cai Dao's men are bullish, but because as long as he himself is still in the formation, let alone the Dayue army on the opposite side, they will immediately turn around and flee when they see Cai Dao.

The matter of Shi Leifa's destruction of the city has slowly spread in Thang Long City, and at this time, even Li Gande can only flee in a hurry when he sees Cai Dao.

At that time, it was enough for Cai Dao to leave only 2,000 soldiers by his side.

It's a pity that it's hard to buy regret medicine with money.

After that, Cai Dao did not pursue Li Gande, who had escaped from the south gate, on the one hand, he immediately sent someone to summon Xie Feibao's headquarters to the north gate of the imperial city, and on the other hand, he ordered Zhi Kerou to lead his troops to retreat to the east gate to replace the uninjured soldiers who remained there.

Moreover, Cai Dao sent three fast horses to issue orders to the soldiers stationed at the three north gates.

At the north gate, except for the wounded soldiers who were left behind by Guo Zhongxiao's headquarters to guard the north gate, the rest of the soldiers were all waiting for an opportunity to attack from behind or contain the enemy in front of them.

The soldiers stationed at the two north gates immediately abandoned their garrisons, and the wounded soldiers gathered at the north gate, and the rest of the soldiers went straight to the area from the north gate to the north gate of the palace from both directions.

Obviously, Cai Dao concentrated all the forces of the Song army that can still move now, and this is the army that is preparing to completely annihilate and attack Guo Zhongxiao's department.

Judging from the strength of the two sides, Cai Dao's move is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, because, at this time, Cai Dao has been unable to gather 20,000 people even if he concentrates all his forces together.

More than 2,000 people have been killed and wounded in the Zhe Kerou section alone, and Guo Zhongxiao's troops have cleared the forbidden troops along the way, escaped and broken through the interception battle, and attacked the north gate position, these three battles are more tragic than the first.

If Cai Dao hadn't sent Zhe Keda to aid them, Guo Zhongxiao's troops would probably have been completely annihilated by the Great Yue Forbidden Army in the interception battle.

Since the start of the war, the soldiers of this southern expedition have suffered more than 10,000 casualties.

However, the reason why Cai Dao dared to use less than 20,000 troops to encircle and annihilate the opponent's army of more than 50,000 people was naturally confident and had his own hole cards.

In the face of Cai Dao's order, the soldiers stationed at the east gate were naturally impatient, they had been left to guard the city, and they had long been tired of it. Even if I saw many soldiers returning injured, it still couldn't extinguish the fire in their hearts. This is the flame that Cai Dao lit in their hearts.

Elder Cai Dao was actually able to break through the palace of the Great Yue Kingdom by Shi Leifa, which was something that no one had thought of before.
