Nine hundred and eighty-eight ends

If the artillery will be blocked by these cowhides and other things, then Du He can commit suicide, the power of the latest gunpowder researched by Li Tai at the cost of his life has been confirmed, the gunpowder king is worthy of his name, and the power of the latest gunpowder is enough to explode many things that gunpowder can't explode in the past, such as this unidentified object.

Du He immediately ordered the mobilization of ten artillery pieces to replace the blooming bombs to bombard the unknown objects on the city wall, no matter what he was, he also had to blow it up, the ending was of course gratifying, seven of the ten artillery shells hit the target, and the violent explosion blew up the unidentified object so that even his mother could not recognize it, and the key point of the protected city wall suddenly revealed the true face of Lushan, Du He was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the solid bombardment! Fuck it!

The old general on the city wall was shocked, and the army was also panicked, but before they could react, the blow of the solid bullet followed, the city wall was blown down, one after another big holes that could not be repaired, and the shocking shock again and again, the defenders finally could not accept this terrible blow, and completely collapsed, the old general saw that there was nothing to do, if he continued to stick to this city wall, then the whole army would inevitably be destroyed, so he had to order the whole army to leave the city wall and build a line of defense between the ruins of the inner city and the outer city, Hand-to-hand combat with the Don Army!

The old general obviously didn't expect that the Roman way used to guard against trebuchets could not prevent bombs that would explode, as for the later decision, it was even more wrong, the basic strategic idea of the Tang army was to destroy the city wall with solid bullets, and destroy the army formation and most of the army with flowering bullets, and the infantry army and horse army then pressed on, and fiercely cleaned up those remnants of the army, and won an absolute victory, that's all, so. The old general was also in a hurry, and actually made such a low-level mistake.

The defense line had not yet been established, and the soldiers on the city walls had not all withdrawn, and the terrible artillery blows followed, and the old general had already retreated to the inner city, and he never expected that the outer city would be destroyed so quickly. Destroyed so quickly, the outer city is still like this, but what about the inner city? What was the outcome of this battle? There seems to be no doubt about it...... The outer city collapsed, and the expected Tang Army's horse infantry did not appear, but the rain of arrows and the overwhelming artillery bombardment followed, and the defense line exposed to the protection of the city wall was destroyed in an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, blood flowed like a river, and the entire defense line became a puddle of minced meat......

Brutal artillery ......

The old general looked at this qiē in amazement. He seemed to know what to do, so he ordered his lieutenant to take over the command of the next battle, and then rushed in the direction of the imperial city with his personal guard iron horse, along the way, he had already seen the chaotic Persian imperial city, violent noises and terrible vibrations tormented the minds of everyone here, a little fragile, you can't see the sun tomorrow. If you're a little unlucky, you'll get hurt.

Terrible qiē. This terrible moment, the old general knew that the fall of the city was only a matter of time, but at least he had to fight to take the emperor away in the period before the fall, as long as the emperor fled, then there was still hope for Persia, no matter how incompetent the emperor was. What a cowardly waste, he was still the emperor all along, and his existence was itself a symbol that he could gather other forces loyal to the emperor. And I can't, so, no matter what, I must save the life of this emperor, even if it costs all the soldiers to die in battle!

The old general rushed to the palace with the cavalry of the guards, rushed into the palace, rushed to the location of the little emperor, saw the panicked little emperor with a panicked expression, and was disappointed for a while, but he still knelt down on one knee and pleaded: "Your Majesty, the Tang army is attacking too fiercely, our army can't hold the town, it is estimated that it won't be long before the city will be broken by the Tang army, as long as the Tang army enters the city, we will definitely lose the opportunity to escape here, and we are very likely to become prisoners or even die in battle, so, Your Majesty, the old minister is willing to protect His Majesty Xià to break through!" ”

The little emperor has no master, he has long been unable to make a decision, he looked at the old general for a long time, the old general was anxious but didn't know how to wake up the little emperor, and when the little emperor finally came to his senses and shouted "go now, go now", it seemed a little late.

The Tang army destroyed a large number of soldiers and the entire east gate of the outer city with lightning speed, tore a hole in the defense line of the imperial city, the artillery immediately advanced, extending the coverage of firepower, and the eastern Persian uprising coalition army also formed a simple military formation to charge towards the breakthrough point, charging to the ruins, the artillery has begun to hit the inner city, the inner city is much worse than the outer city, when the Tang army first came, it urgently strengthened the outer city, and the inner city was not reinforced, and the Persians thought that the army that could break through the outer city did not exist, so the inner city was not reinforced.

Seventy or eighty solid bullets smashed on the city wall, punching one hole after another, after the second round of salvo, the inner city wall began to collapse, the artillery changed to flowering shells scattered fire, the defenders in the city suffered heavy losses, Du He gave an order, the eastern uprising coalition army began to charge in groups, with unparalleled hatred to attack the city, at the same time the remaining three armies also began to attack the city at the same time, not equipped with artillery, just ladders and wells, but it was enough to contain the defenders here, so that they could not support the east gate, increasing the chance of breaking the city.

The Imperial City couldn't hold on.

As long as one gate is breached, the remaining three are meaningless even if they are impregnable, and the east gate is completely destroyed, so for the remaining three gates, it is meaningless to hold on, although the old general brought out an army that can resist the attack of the Tang army with tenacity, but if people die, how can they fight tenaciously? The equipment of the Tang army and the equipment of the Persian army were not at the same level, the crossbows and artillery of the Tang army completely destroyed the bows and arrows and trebuchets of the Persian army, and the trebuchet position of the Persian army in the city was completely destroyed by the artillery bombardment of the Tang army, and there was no chance to play.

Since the old general already knows this ending, he will naturally not waste more time, the front-line army can no longer be withdrawn, in order to better ensure the safety of the emperor, he can only reluctantly abandon the front-line resistance army, and use their flesh and blood to win time for the emperor's safe evacuation, he is very unbearable, but this is the only opportunity, the only way, in addition, he has no other way, the people's army has long collapsed, can not fight, and the people sent to organize the people's army to fight are gone. The violent gunpowder explosion of the Tang army outside the city gate made everyone have no hope of survival, and the old general retreated all the way, and everyone he saw was also retreating all the way, without advancing.

The final result is almost certain.

Now the only hope is to take the emperor away, and the emperor will not yet be able to ride a horse, but can only ride in a car. The old general prepared a carriage for the emperor, and asked the emperor to take his son to get into the carriage quickly, the little emperor actually didn't want a son, but wanted to take his beauty, the old general was furious, and killed the crying beauty with a sword, the little emperor was stunned, and was thrown into the carriage by the old general, and threw into the carriage with his little son. Then he led the carriage with less than five hundred men and ran to the west gate.

The West Gate is the least garrison of the Tang Army, and it is also the largest number of people in the Eastern Uprising Alliance, for the old general, it is not so difficult to break through the rabble, along the way the old general continued to collect the cavalry, drive away the crowd of people, and when they arrived at the West Gate, the number of cavalry had exceeded 1,000. I didn't care about anything else, just to run for my life. Leaving the Tang Army, which had the strongest troops, in the east gate, left behind, it was just bent on breaking through the west gate, and more importantly, the two provinces that had not yet fallen were in the west.

The west gate had not yet been opened, it had not yet been breached, and the army of fierce resistance could still be seen on the city walls. Although it was only a small number of people, most of them had already collapsed and fled in all directions, and the pro-guard team had to kill many people in a row to stabilize the situation, and the prestige of the old general was effective, and more than a thousand infantry troops surrounded the old general. Waiting for the old general's order, just right, the old general immediately ordered to open the city gate, kill a bloody road, everyone has a way to live, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, all the armies, charge with me!

In order to survive, the army of less than 3,000 people bravely charged towards nearly 70,000 eastern rebel coalition troops outside the city, and the sudden rush to catch the rebel coalition army that was besieging the city was caught off guard, the first wave of troops was killed and turned over on his back, the gap between combat experience and combat effectiveness was vividly reflected at this moment, although the border guard corps was only less than 3,000 people, but still killed several times his own rebel army and retreated again and again, The old general took the opportunity to organize a cavalry charge, personally escorted the little emperor's carriage in the formation, and rushed forward with all his might.

The peasant rebel army has always lacked horse troops, not to mention that in the early days of its establishment, there were less than 10,000 people on horseback, and only a few hundred of the 70,000 or 80,000 people here had horses, all of them were leaders and people.

Behind him, the once majestic and prosperous Persian imperial city was shrouded in thick smoke, shouting and killing, shouting, crying and crying, and the violent roar and vibration were interspersed with it, converging into a passionate but cruel war march, for the Persians, this is a memorable day, for the Tang Dynasty, it is also a memorable day, of course, it cannot be drawn for the time being, because the culprit has not been caught.

At the west gate of the Persian Imperial City, in the roadside jungle where the breakthrough team must pass through, Wang Xuance yawned helplessly, he didn't want to participate in the ongoing war, but Du He didn't let him participate, Du He fooled him, fooled him and said that he wanted to give him the first merit of this battle, he took the order in a hurry, he thought he was going to lead the assault team to attack the city, but it turned out to be an ambush here with a small number of "elite troops", Du He smiled and told him, saying that this is the first merit, you just stay there and stay, There must be credit for sending it to the door yourself.

Wang Xuance realized that he had been fooled, in the military academy, in the army, no matter where he was, he knew that the credit was to be won by himself, and there was no credit that was automatically sent to the door, unless it was a trap.

The unlucky Du He, didn't he just hear him fart with his own ears, and then said it a little, which affected his majestic image, and he retaliated against him.

I think I'm unlucky, people are really powerful, he is the commander of more than 200,000 troops at a young age, alas, he is the leader of the ambush force of less than 3,000 people, he is really more popular than people, this guy is still the youngest in a group, he is the youngest in a lifetime, and among the more than 600 students who are still alive, this guy ranks first......

What kind of credit, it's just a passing cloud, right, anyway, it's just a handful of loess in the end, Du He is a cow, and he will not be engraved on the tablet in the future, it's all the same, no, I don't know if this guy can enter the Lingyan Pavilion in the future......

He could only comfort himself in this way, and even when the guards hurriedly ran over to tell him the news that a Persian cavalry was rushing towards them, he waved his hand very casually and said that he knew, ready to fight, in his mind, it was just a fish that slipped through the net, and it was better than nothing to talk about it!

And then, there is no then...... (To be continued......)
