"Kill!"

A trace of tyranny flashed at the corner of Mu Qingchen's mouth, and the whole person seemed to have become crazy, and from beginning to end, he didn't see a glance at the prince of Dali, and he didn't know if the prince of Dali was before this military formation.

Although it was a powerful scream, and the thunderbolt was also powerful, the soldiers under Liu Fa's command were not vegetarians, and they were about to miss a few times, but Mu Qingchen never stepped into this step, but he just piled up thick corpses under Pingnan City.

Qingyun flew at the head of Pingnan City, like a violent beast, with a movement of his fingers, there were always soldiers from Dali who fell to the city, and on his body, there were many wounds of all sizes, but he just didn't fall down, and the killing was in full swing.

"What's the news on Hanju?"

Liu Fa frowned, looking at the soldiers and horses of Dali under the city, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, he wanted to know what Mu Qingchen's idea was now, why he didn't see the figure of Dali Shizi from beginning to end, whether he was under the city, or, he was almost at Qinglong Gorge now.

The terrain of Qinglong Gorge is steep and changeable, surrounded by mountains, and the road passes through the mountains, if you set up an ambush in the mountains, it is hidden and conducive to attacking.

Nangong Zhinu chose a place where there were cliffs on both sides of the road, and then divided his soldiers into two and ambushed them on the hills on both sides of the road.

He knows very well in his heart where his weakness is, most of the soldiers under his command are ordinary people, they don't know how to use bows and arrows, even if the ambush is good, the lethality of the arrows is very small, it is better to use more stones, which can produce a huge threat as long as they have strength, the road of Qinglong Gorge is so narrow, do not go from there, there is no other way to go by, unless, the prince of Dali does not choose to pass through here, if the prince of Dali takes the road to Qinglong Gorge, then the effect of applying the stone is undoubtedly the best.

At this moment, Nangong Zhifu, the prince of Dali, did not know about the ambush in Qinglong Gorge, because the road of Xiaoshu Road was really difficult and dangerous, although it was a rapid march, but it was also not fast, and in the iron cable, they wasted time not a little bit, because they were going to build an iron chain bridge there so that their army could pass.

As Liu Fa guessed, Mu Qingchen feinted outside Pingnan City to create an opportunity for the prince of Dali to send troops to Qinglong Gorge, in fact, Mu Qingchen was very hard working in Qinglong Gorge, and he was simply deadly, because he knew that Liu Fa was not so easy to hide, if he didn't fight, Liu Fa would definitely be suspicious, so he didn't remember the casualties in the attack on Pingnan City, but he didn't know that Liu Fa had already seen through his conspiracy, when the prince of Dali passed through Qinglong Gorge and wanted to cooperate with Mu Qingchen to break into Pingnan City in one fell swoop, he would find out, Nangong has been waiting for a long time.

Just when Mu Qingchen was attacking hard under Pingnan City, the prince of Dali was also commanding his subordinates to continue to march towards Qinglong Gorge. Tens of thousands of Dali troops are not without eyeliner when they are marching.

Before the main force of the Dali army arrived, Tanma entered Qinglong Gorge first. Seeing that the Dali army horse team wearing silver helmets and silver armor entered their ambush site, the soldiers under their command were nervous, and even the partial generals who were lying next to Nangong were subconsciously touching the swords on their waists. At this time, Nangong was angry and couldn't speak, and signaled the generals on the left and right not to be nervous, let alone make a sound.

They were lying on the edge of the top of the mountain at this time, watching the Dali army swaggering from under their noses close to a team, but they were indifferent, a group of Dali army horses turned around in Qinglong Gorge, and did not find the enemy, so they turned the horse's head, retreated the same way, and explained the situation to the prince of Dali. Although they received a report on the safety of the front of the Tanma, when the Dali army reached the edge of Qinglong Gorge, the prince of Dali still passed down the order to let the army stop advancing first, and they had to stop now, because the big river had blocked their way, although a small number of scouts had already passed, but a large army wanted to pass through here, it was not an easy thing.

Under the city of Pingnan, there is a bloody and shouting of killing, endlessly, Mu Qingchen's heart is dripping blood, but he has to do this, at this moment under the city, are the soldiers and horses of their Mu family's army, and if one dies, there will be one less, but he has to do this, from the time when Mu En was politely invited to his account by the prince of Dali, all this has become a certainty, if Mu Qingchen is ruthless enough, he can also ignore the prince of Dali, but in that case, it will also put Mu En to death, but Mu Qingchen does not dare, because he is now infamous far and wide, the words of traitors and lackeys have never been less, if you add a name of disloyalty and unfilial piety, he will not be able to establish authority in the army.

"Trebuchet!"

Mu Qingchen waved his sword, a chill flashed in his eyes, all he could do was to rely on these maximum blows to Liu Fa, so as to protect the remnants of their Mu family's army.

Under the commander's order, the whole army moved in unison, and in the shouts and cheers of the people, dozens of stone throwing machines shot out stones in unison.

These stones, each weighing up to 100 catties, flying in mid-air, the whistling sound is piercing, hundreds of stones are combined together, the sound of breaking the wind is deafening, the Dali sergeant who is moving forward subconsciously raised his head, looking at the dense stones that are speeding over his head, people instinctively touch the top of their heads, for fear that which stone will suddenly fall down and hit their heads.

"Retreat!"

Seeing that the stone was smashed up again, Qing Yunfei's scalp was numb for a while, he scolded secretly, and then ordered the soldiers under his command to hide in the arrow stacks.

Before he could finish speaking, the stone fell near. In just an instant, the rumbling sounds above and below the city, inside and outside the city, were connected. Some of the stones fell outside the city, smashing large holes in the ground, and some fell into the city and smashed into the barracks and the streets.

As long as it is hit by a stone, the small barracks will be basically destroyed in half, if it is hit by two or three stones in a row, it will be basically destroyed, most of the stones are still accurately smashed on the wall of Pingnan City, the stones hit the wall, bang, sparks splashed, and the stones were deeply embedded in the wall. Fortunately, the walls of Pingnan City are strong enough to withstand heavy blows, otherwise under such a dense blow, I am afraid that it will collapse in an instant. The biggest threat to the Liuhua army is the stones that fall on the head of the city, because the Liuhua army's position is too dense, as long as there are stones falling, there will be Liuhua soldiers will be hit by it, and once hit, either be crushed into a meat pie, or be hit by the bones and tendons, for a while, the city screams everywhere, crying and wailing.

This is just the first round of volleys, followed by the second round, the third round...... Continuous attacks. A large number of willow soldiers did not shoot an arrow, before they had time to shoot a round of arrow rain, first killed and wounded under the attack of the opponent's heavy stone thrower, the city head was in chaos, people scattered and fled, many people were a little careless, they were squeezed down the city wall by their companions, from the outside of the city to look at the south of the city, the willow army on the head of the city was like a dumpling, crackling and falling from the city.

"Go on!"

Seeing that the soldiers kept falling from the head of Pingnan City, Mu Qingchen's eyes did not have the slightest relaxation, but he waved his hand and asked his soldiers to continue to fill in the stones and attack Pingnan.

At this moment, Qing Yunfei reacted instantly, and when he gave an order, he saw a black cloud rising from the head of Pingnan City, emitting bursts of sharp whistling, drawing an arc in the air, and then falling towards the camp of the Dali army.

When the arrow array approached to the end, it was as dense as raindrops, and in an instant, the array of the Dali army sounded with the sound of arrows breaking through the armor. After the rain of arrows poured out, a row of wide and long gaps appeared in the originally neat array, and in this clearing, arrows were all over the ground, corpses were stacked, people were pressed on the arrows, and the arrows covered the people.

This is just the beginning, just after the previous round of arrow formation, the next round of arrow formations of the Liu Expedition Army came one after another, smashing into the crowd, and the dense carving feathers made the people in it instantly turn into hedgehogs.

The generals of the Dali Army shouted one after another: "Forward!" Keep moving! Fill in the front position, and all the top shields-"

The soldiers, under the command of their respective generals, raised their shields one after another and continued to advance. The Dali army is all steel helmets and steel armor, and the shield is also made of steel, after the whole army raises the shield, it seems to hold up an iron wall, the silver light is shining, and it is magnificent.

On the other hand, the Liuhua army is all leather armor, and the shield is not made of pure steel, but is wrapped with a layer of iron on the basis of the wooden shield.

The resources in the southwest are very scarce, there is not so much steel, and it is impossible to build a shield of pure steel, and secondly, the Liuhua army likes to fight in close combat, and uses wooden shields that are light and flexible, and they are good at charging.

When the arrow array of the Liu Expedition Army came, the situation of the Dali Army was also completely different, the arrow array was shot in the camp of the Dali Army, clanging, and the Eagle Ling rebounded to the ground, and when it was shot into the camp of the Dali Army, it was the sound of fluttering together, and most of the arrows were nailed to the shield. After a few rounds of arrows, the Dali army camp was like a mirror, and the Dali army camp was like a huge hedgehog.

Of course, no matter how dense the shield array cloth is, no matter how perfect it is, it is impossible to be impermeable, under such a dense rain of arrows in the Liuhua army, there are screams from time to time in the camp of the Dali army, and the soldiers who fell down with arrows one after another.

At the head of the city, Qing Yunfei stared at the advance of the enemy camp, and was also silently calculating in his heart, and when the enemy army was about to reach nearly eighty zhang, he waved his arm forward violently and shouted: "Broken army crossbow, broken city crossbow together!" ”

As soon as he gave the order, the soldiers of Liu Fa made the undamaged army-breaking crossbows and city-breaking crossbows, aimed at the enemy's shield array, and then fired them in unison.

The crossbow arrows of the city-breaking crossbow and the army-breaking crossbow are too powerful, and they can't be stopped by manpower at all. The crossbow arrows were shot into the shield array, and the soldiers who bore the brunt of the crossbow were all shattered, because the crossbow arrows were stabbed down obliquely, after shooting through one person, the strength did not decrease at all, and they shot through the second and third people, and when the crossbow arrows were deeply nailed to the ground, two corpses were also strung on it.

Seeing that there was a gap in the shield array, the soldiers on the left and right shouted in unison: "The rear team fills the ......"

Before they could finish speaking, countless arrows had fallen from the sky, and the soldiers behind the blank block were full of carved feathers in their chests, screaming and falling on their backs, this time, the gap was even bigger, and more soldiers fell to the ground in the continuous rain of arrows, and never got up again.

By the time the people finally filled the gap, dozens of soldiers had been shot, but the shield array that had just been propped up had to withstand the impact of the next wave of crossbow arrows. This is just a corner of the Dali army, a large number of crossbow arrows mixed with the rain of arrows shot into the crowd, causing screams to be heard everywhere, wailing constantly, the military shield array is scattered and replenished, supplemented and scattered, and the camp began to be chaotic. The generals of each battalion rode their horses back and forth through the crowd, constantly shouting loudly to stabilize the soldiers under their command.

In the Dali army, the commander of the battalion at the top of the top was hoarse, he was covered with black armor, but his eyes were blood-red because of congestion, and he swung his knife forward again and again in the crowd, and ordered the soldiers below to move forward, advance and advance. But his shouting soon stopped abruptly, and it turned out that a crossbow arrow that suddenly flew over hit him in the chest, and the strong force directly shattered his iron armor, piercing his chest, and even the war horse he stepped on was not spared, and was shot through by the crossbow arrows, and the poor commander did not even have the opportunity to fight the enemy face to face, so he was nailed to the ground alive with men and horses, until death, and the corpses of men and horses were standing.

If the commander dies, the commander of the battalion will take command, and if he dies, he will be replaced by the commander of the second formation, and so on, this is the rule of the Dali army, and the battalion will not be chaotic due to the leaderlessness of the dragons.

Seeing the corpse of the commander nailed to the ground, the nearby soldiers immediately put down their shields and went up to take the corpse, but they went up quickly and fell quickly. went up to a group of soldiers, and was shot down by a group of soldiers, but the Dali army was one after another, and people rushed up regardless of it, even if they lost their lives, they had to take the corpse and save the whole corpse under their command.

It took a lot of effort for the Dali army to pull the crossbow arrows out of the ground, and the corpse of the commander was finally carried down, but in such a short time, the Dali army paid for the lives of hundreds of people.

The siege battle has been carried out for more than an hour, and Dali's soldiers and horses were blocked by the Liu army outside Pingnan City. The Dali army fought bravely, and the Dali army had many siege equipment, but Mu Qingchen did not even open a gap.

First, Pingnan City is indeed precipitous, although the city wall is not strong enough, but there are soldiers who are not afraid of death, but the city wall is extremely high, as high as three zhang three, which is a lot higher than the tower of the Dali army. Second, the Liuhua army trained quickly, the main general gave an order, moved up and down, and the soldiers were also brave, in the battle, they were quite deadly, and they were willing to use their own flesh and blood to block the enemy's attack. Third, the Liuhua army was too well prepared, and there were countless city defense weapons hoarded, and people could use them without any worries.

In this situation, Dali's soldiers and horses attacked a wave, and were beaten down, not to mention that there was no effect, but he lost countless soldiers. At this time, Mu Qingchen, who was watching the battle in the back, was no longer as relaxed as at the beginning, he felt bitter and a little helpless, so it didn't have much effect, and it seemed that he could only rely on the son of Dali.

As the casualties of the soldiers in front of the battle became larger and larger, the faces of the generals behind Mu Qingchen became more and more solemn, and gradually, people's smiles disappeared, and their brows were deeply furrowed.

The strength of the resistance of the Liuhua army was expected by Mu Qingchen, before they clashed with the Liuhua army, they just heard that the Liuhua army fought quite bravely, and now it seems that it is true, the Liuhua army can defeat the barbarians in a row and occupy the southwest, it is not a fluke.

Mu Qingchen saw that the casualties of the first group of his own siege team were too large, and the attack had begun to weaken, so he immediately made a decision and immediately sent the second group, and the Dali army sent ten battalions each to replace all the battalions that were fighting in front.

This is the place where Mu Qingchen commanded the ferocity of the battle, and changed the top of the army in multiple batches, so that the intensity of the attack was always maintained in the most violent state, and the enemy army was not given a chance to breathe at all.

Soon, Dali's soldiers and horses completed the replacement of the attack, and while the first group of siege troops retreated, the second group of siege troops immediately filled in and continued to launch a fierce attack on Pingnan City. After the second group retreated to the main formation, and then made statistics, not counting the wounded, the Dali army had nearly 30,000 casualties, and the Liuhua army had tens of thousands of casualties, and the number of casualties of the two armies together was equivalent to five battalions being wiped out.

Such a tragic battle made Mu Qingchen feel secretly cold. But what he is most anxious about is whether the prince of Dali has crossed the Qinglong Gorge safely now, if the prince of Dali can send troops from the Qinglong Gorge, and he can attack him back and forth, it is just a very simple thing to break through Pingnan City, but no matter how anxious he is, there is not much he can do.

Qinglong Gorge!

"Ding...... Ding......"

Hundreds of baggage soldiers were working on the cliffs, trying to use the steel cable in the Qinglong Gorge as a medium to make a big road out, but now it is late autumn, moss is everywhere, and it is very slippery.

Seeing that the chain bridge was about to be completed, the prince of Dali also let out a long breath, he knew Mu Qingchen's pressure, so he didn't dare to be too slow, now Mu Qingchen and him are grasshoppers on a rope, whoever dies, the other party is not good, especially him, now his position in Dali is already precarious, so he has to fight a few beautiful battles to consolidate his position.

"Move fast!"

Dali Shizi looked at the sky was already a little gloomy, his brows were tightly locked, unconsciously, it was already a day, I don't know how Mu Qingchen is now, whether he can withstand it and buy himself a little time.

Not far away, Nangong on the high slope was even more anxious than the prince of Dali, he saw that the chain bridge was being repaired so slowly, and he wanted to go over to do good deeds and help them......

It's been a whole day, Nangong Ji is lying there angrily, his whole body is a little stiff, he is waiting to welcome the prince of Dali all day, but these Dali people are as slow as turtles, which really makes him extremely angry.
