Chapter 263: Thunder, Break the City!
Nie Zheng led 10,000 dragon and tiger rebels, marched rapidly for four consecutive days, and finally appeared seven miles away from Zengzhou City at noon on the fifth day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Tens of thousands of elite men and horses, carrying all kinds of arms and weapons, just appeared outside the city, and soon aroused the vigilance of Zengzhou's western city defense.
All of a sudden, on the western city defense of Zengzhou, the alarm bell continued to sound, and the whole city warned the Dayue people who were guarding other places to send soldiers and horses to reinforcements immediately.
At this moment, under the escort of Shen Hongyu and others, Nie Zheng took the lead, leading 10,000 elite troops, spreading out on the wilderness, and setting up a siege charge formation.
All the dragon and tiger rebels, all fully armed, holding all kinds of arms and weapons, marched neatly and swiftly, rushing towards the city in front of them, making a tidal sound of armor and metal colliding.
Suddenly, when there were still five miles away from the western city defense of Zengzhou, Nie Zheng, who was rushing to the front, suddenly reined in his war horse, and then waved his arms and signaled everyone to stop charging.
Suddenly, the tens of thousands of elite armies who followed closely behind all stopped and stood motionless on the spot.
Nie Zheng sat on the horse, slowly took out the binoculars, looked at the city tower in front of him, and observed carefully.
Zengzhou's city defense is obviously weaker than Yangzhou, whether it is the height of the city wall or the width of the moat, it is not as good as Yangzhou, the county capital.
Despite this, Zengzhou is still a big city.
It is said that when Annam was not occupied by the Dayue people, there were at least 300,000 residents in Zengzhou City.
With a city of 300,000 people, it is definitely a real big city.
Through the telescope in his hand, Nie Zheng clearly saw that within the western city defense of Zengzhou, on the city walls on the left and right, a large number of Dayue officers and soldiers wearing light armor emerged, they were armed with bows and crossbow weapons, and they were constantly increasing troops and deploying troops on the head of the city.
At the same time, on the bank of the moat, which was about fifteen meters wide, an area of red sand about three hundred meters wide appeared.
This red sandy area is like a long isolation belt, firmly isolating the entire Zengzhou City within the red sand.
After seeing this red isolation belt, Nie Zheng's heart moved, and he said secretly: "Could it be that the red isolation belt is the Zengzhou City Protector Array?" ”
Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and called, "Where are the scattered people?" ”
"The subordinates are here!"
After hearing Nie Zheng's call, Wu Sanren immediately ran to Nie Zheng's horse, bowed and saluted: "Dashuai, what are your orders?" ”
Nie Zheng glanced at him, pointed to the red isolation belt a few miles away, and said, "That red area, but Zengzhou's protective array?" ”
Wu Sanren nodded without looking at it and said, "That's right, that is the Yellow Shami Heavenly Array that his subordinates arranged back then!" Handsome, but do you want your subordinates to go forward and break the formation? ”
Nie Zheng nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Now I order you to go and break the formation quickly, I don't know how long it will take you to successfully break the formation?" Need a helper? ”
Wu Sanren laughed and said: "That Yellow Shami Heavenly Array is arranged by his subordinates himself, to break such a small array, one person can go there, and at most two quarters of an hour of hard work can make it invalid." ”
"Okay, then there's the Laosan."
"The big marshal is serious, his subordinates will go to break the formation, and please wait for a while!"
After that, I saw Wu Xuanyin turn around like a whirlwind, and then, his feet were on the ground a little, and his body was like a big yellow bird, and after a few ups and downs in the air, he flew away.
After the Wu Sanren went to break the formation, Nie Zheng shouted again: "Where is Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, and Xue Changsheng? ”
"The subordinates are here! ……”
Soon, Shi Zheng, Xu Shijie, and Xue Changsheng ran to Nie Zheng as quickly as possible.
Nie Zheng looked down at the three of them, and ordered with a proud expression: "Xue Changsheng, after two quarters of an hour, you will lead three hundred mortar launchers and three hundred rocket launchers as the vanguard, enter the attack range in advance, and carry out a covering bombardment of the enemy's western city defense!" ”
"Subordinates obey!"
"Xu Shijie, you bring two hundred heavy machine guns and take the lead in breaking the city!"
"Subordinates obey!"
"Shi Zheng, you wait and lead the rest of the men and horses, and delay the charge with me!"
"Yes, Dashuai!"
After receiving Nie Zheng's order, all the generals and leaders went down to give orders and prepare to go.
At this time, Nie Zheng took the telescope and continued to observe ahead.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wu Xuanyin to break into the big protective array, for him, this big protective array didn't play the slightest role at all, because he had arranged this big protective array with his own hands.
No one can know better than him the weaknesses and eyes of this great array of city protectors, and all the illusions and visions in the great array, Wu Xuanyin directly turned a blind eye.
The Dayue officers and soldiers guarding the defense of the western city suddenly broke into a person in the large array of the city protector, and at first, they all secretly sneered, and said in their hearts, if a person broke into the Huangsha Mitian array, he would definitely die.
Because, this large array of city protectors can not only make people hallucinate, but also they are also in the large array, laying a lot of poisonous evil arts, ordinary warrior masters, entering the array, at most, will not exceed the time of tea will bleed and die violently.
But it didn't take long for them to stop laughing.
Because, this yellow-clothed man who entered the formation, he is not only strong, but also extremely weird.
This Yellow Shami Heavenly Array, which was able to trap the eight-rank warrior master, was like a flat ground with nothing abnormal in the eyes of this yellow-clothed man, and he moved left and right in the array, and soon came to the vicinity of the eye of the array.
And in this process just now, the Yin and Evil Poison Techniques deployed by the Da Yue people in the formation actually had no effect on him.
Seeing this scene, the Dayue officers and soldiers on the city defense began to panic.
At this time, a Dayue general wearing the armor of a silver lion hurriedly shouted: "Shoot the arrows, don't let this person enter the area where the formation eye is located!" ”
At the sound of an order, arrows rained down.
I saw hundreds of crossbowmen, shooting fiercely at Wu Xuanyin, who was about to break into the vicinity of the array.
Facing the rain of arrows that shrouded the sky, Wu Xuanyin was unmoved, and he didn't even bother to look up.
At his level, once the True Qi of Body Protection was activated, it would be difficult for an ordinary bow and crossbow to damage him in the slightest.
Soon, Wu Xuanyin saw the location of the formation eye, and immediately his figure flashed suddenly, and under the exclamation of countless Dayue officers and soldiers at the head of the city, he instantly came to the place where the spirit array beast was hidden......
At this time, a few miles away, Nie Zheng picked up the military telescope again and carefully observed Wu Xuanyin's every move in the city protection array.
Suddenly, I saw Wu Xuanyin bounce up suddenly, and retreated like lightning.
When his yellow-robed figure had just left the city protection array, all of a sudden, the red isolation belt about three hundred meters wide instantly burst out of green smoke, and the red sand and soil all over the ground turned gray in a blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng's eyes flashed with light, and he secretly applauded: "What a Wu Xuanyin, he didn't even need a quarter of an hour, so he broke the big protective array without much effort, and the prestige of Kun Yinzi was really not covered." ”
Now that the protective array has been broken, it's their turn to play!
"Xue Changsheng, attack immediately!"
"Yes, Dashuai!"
Due to Wu Xuanyin's speed of breaking through the formation, this attack was a quarter of an hour earlier than the previously scheduled time.
After Xue Changsheng received the attack order from Nie Zheng, he immediately roared: "All bazooka launchers and mortar launchers obey the order, charge with me and blast through the enemy's city defense!" ”
"Yes, General!"
Hundreds of heavy fire launchers responded one after another.
Xue Changsheng took the lead, carrying an RPG bazooka on his shoulder, leading his subordinates, and rushed towards the city defense with great speed.
When he was less than two miles away from the city defense, Xue Changsheng turned his head sharply and shouted: "Mortar ready!" ”
"Yes, General!" Hundreds of mortar launchers immediately stopped when they heard the command and deployed all 300 mortars on the ground.
A moment later, all three hundred mortars were ready.
"Launch!"
Shout! Shout! Shout! ……
Hundreds of fist-sized cannonballs shot out like raindrops, overwhelmingly heading straight for the city.
Thundered!!
The flames rose into the sky, and hundreds of shells exploded at the same time, splashing the bricks and stones of the entire Xicheng bomb-proof, and people turned over on their backs.
In such a short moment, the western city defense fell into chaos, thousands of Dayue officers and soldiers guarding the city defense, all of them screamed and fled in all directions, and some timid and afraid of death directly threw away their weapons and fled from the city defense in horror.
Three hundred mortars, just one round of bombardment, disintegrated the Da Viet people's bow and crossbow counterattack formation.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the enemy's city defense, the remaining three hundred bazooka launchers, under the leadership of Xue Changsheng, immediately charged forward for hundreds of meters.
When they were still three hundred meters away from the West Gate of Zengzhou, Xue Changsheng laughed wildly and said, "You Dayue monkeys, go and die!" ”
With that, he slammed the rocket launcher loaded with ammunition and pressed the trigger on the huge city gate hundreds of meters away.
Shout!
An arm-thick high-explosive rocket, dragging a long flame tail, shot straight at the city gate hundreds of miles away.
With a loud "boom", the two heavy and huge city gates were blown up on the spot and the sawdust flew and collapsed.
At the same time, the remaining 300 rocket launchers bombarded the city tower hundreds of meters away as if they didn't want money.
Hundreds of high-explosive rockets bombarded the city, directly shattering all the enemy's defensive deployments and turning them into scattered sand.
Seeing this scene, Xu Shijie suddenly picked up a light machine gun and roared loudly: "Brothers, rush me and kill those Dayue beasts!" ”
"Kill!"
Suddenly, suddenly......, suddenly
Bang! Bang! Bang!!! ……
All of a sudden, outside the city of Zengzhou, the deafening explosions and all kinds of dull and piercing gunshots were intertwined into an unrivaled firepower network.
Originally, the Dayue officers and soldiers who were guarding the western city defense added up to less than 8,000 people.
As a result, Nie Zheng led his men and horses to charge and bomb, and nearly half of them were damaged in the blink of an eye, and the remaining Dayue officers and soldiers who were not injured were already frightened by Nie Zheng's arms and weapons, and they rushed to leave the city defense one by one, and fled in other directions quickly.
I have to say that since the hundreds of thousands of elite tribes led by Sang Kang last time were exterminated by Nie Zheng, the remaining Dayue officers and soldiers, whether they are in terms of soldier quality or on-the-spot combat ability, cannot be compared with the previous group of Dayue people.
The comprehensive combat effectiveness is too poor, from Nie Zheng leading the men and horses to appear outside the city, and then organizing a large army to attack the city, the whole process, these Dayue people who are guarding the city defense, they actually haven't had a single resistance and counterattack?
Of course, in the face of Nie Zheng's fierce armed firepower, no matter how much they fought back, it was useless, but the nature of a soldier is to fight, and no matter how strong and ferocious the enemy is, they can't give in and admit it. The weak resistance of these Dayue people like today really disappointed Nie Zheng.
The Dayue people who guarded Zengzhou this time were not at all as fierce and cunning as the Dayue people they encountered before.
Through today's siege battle, Nie Zheng has thoroughly figured out the reality of the enemy.
It seems that the last time the battle of annihilation outside Yangzhou City really hurt the vitality of the Great Yue Kingdom, and now in the entire territory of Annan, it is estimated that there is no decent elite of the Great Yue.
Although no matter how powerful the Dayue elite team is, in front of Nie Zheng's arms troops, they are still bombarded into scum, but at the very least, the enemy's strength is stronger, and the performance is more fierce and tenacious, and it is not fun to fight by yourself, isn't it?
There was a classic saying in my previous life, which said, "Your name! You're struggling! The louder you scream, the more excited I get! The more ferocious you struggle, the more pleasure I get! ……”
Today, the group of Dayue monkeys guarding Zengzhou, they didn't scream or struggle, they fled immediately after being beaten, and they didn't even care about the city defense, so that Nie Zheng didn't have a sense of accomplishment at all.
Therefore, this time, except for the beginning of the scene, Nie Zheng used mortars and bazookas to make a big move, and in the end, it was basically unimpeded, and no enemy dared to jump out to resist.
Half an hour later, Nie Zheng led 10,000 dragon and tiger rebels to occupy the western city defense of Zengzhou, and then divided into several roads to attack other defense areas in the city.
However, to Nie Zheng's surprise, since the moment they broke through the defense of the western city, all the Dayue men and horses stationed in Zengzhou all fled out of the city from the east gate and south gate of Zengzhou at the fastest speed.
Now the entire Zengzhou City has been completely occupied by the Dragon and Tiger Army. No, strictly speaking, it was the group of Dayue natives who directly gave up Zengzhou to Nie Dashuai.
After Nie Zheng led the soldiers and horses into the city, the city was in a mess.
All the streets and alleys, the doors and windows are closed, and there is not a single pedestrian in the city at all, so it can be seen that the residents in Zengzhou City may have just been frightened by the loud sound of artillery fire when Nie Zheng and them attacked the city, and now, they are hiding in the house one by one and dare not show up.
Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng immediately ordered the generals and leaders to occupy the city as quickly as possible, and then go to various city defense fortresses to garrison and set up defenses. At the same time, it is necessary to send some well-spoken people to the city to pacify the people.
After explaining all this, Nie Zheng couldn't wait to lead a group of people to the official office in Zengzhou, ready to seal up the treasury in Zengzhou.
Nie Zheng's biggest purpose in attacking Zengzhou this time was to be able to take down Zengzhou's treasury and see how much gold and silver were stored in it, so that he could add some arms funds to himself when the time came.
