Chapter 551: Giant Artillery Siege
A few days ago, in the secret chamber of the castle
"Zheng Tianyang has become Situ Wei's person? Wait, if you talk about a martial god...... It's not necessarily him who has changed his position, maybe it's his old boss, right?"
When he heard the news from Jiao Mu, Qiu Wuyi didn't think of the entanglement between the martial gods, but for some reason, he thought of another possibility in his mind.
Because for the Martial God, Qiu Wuyi has been studying it for a long time.
Nominally, there are five martial gods who shake the country, Liao Taihao has three under him, Situ Wei occupies two, and the emperor does not, but this is certainly not the case, how can any country be stupid enough to publish all its hole cards to the public, and a martial god has caused the collapse of strength, so there must be some unknown martial gods active in the dark.
As soon as he heard that the martial god had defected, Qiu Wuyi thought of Liao Taihao.
"That's right, it seems that you thought of it immediately, although there is no evidence yet, but there is already this tendency in many ways, and it is precisely because of this that Situ Wei is ready to fight him to the death in a short time. ”
The information brought by Jiao Mu was quite timely, and it also relieved Qiu Wuyi's considerable doubts.
"In that case...... I'll have to contact my Pirate King brother. ”
Qiu Wuyi's heart moved, and he immediately realized that there was an extremely ingenious opportunity in front of him, and whether this opportunity could be grasped or not mainly depended on everyone's acting skills.
After that, Qiu Wuyi immediately left the territory, and soon the news of the appearance of a large number of pirates came from the port, and in order to take revenge, the pirates razed the port to the ground, and none of the soldiers who went to collect food were returned.
This incident has lost a lot of Qiu Wuyi's prestige, and it has also caused a considerable degree of questioning, and Qiu Wuyi is silent about this matter.
In fact, there is no way not to be silent, because he is not in the territory at all now.
Not only the lord, Shui Chaoyang, the strong reinforcements Ling Qi, the willowberry berry and Jiao Mu who were preparing to fight with the army, and several of the most powerful generals also mysteriously left the main city, this battle, Qiu Wuyi still asked Fan Lingyu not to participate in the war, she could only play casually for a few days and then depressedly returned to the country of Shura to become the emperor.
Is the emperor fun? Not at all.
These things are done secretly enough that no matter which side of the secret agents do not find out, and even if they can find that the core members of the territory are not there, there is a reason to crusade against the pirates, who are said to have not gone too far.
After a short silence, the battle to attack the Qinglong Walled City began.
It is already close to winter, and the weather in the earthquake country in winter is very bad, and the sky is often gray, even if it does not snow.
Therefore, no one will think it is strange to have two dark clouds, even if the dark clouds fall to the ground in the middle of the night...... No, this definitely won't work, so Qiu Wuyi took advantage of the night to do this.
Ji Xiong, Yao Shuo, Jiang Laowan, and the three generals of the unified army respectively commanded tens of thousands of troops under their command, and arranged them in a neat formation on the plain.
Of course, the siege is not like this, and hundreds of thousands of troops must not rush to the Qinglong Walled City in a swarm, they are just lined up here, because in this battle, the Duke of the Apocalypse Situ Wei has an absolute chance of winning, so many troops, in order to be able to quickly occupy a large area of land next, so there are nearly 30,000 elite cavalry inside.
Qinglong Walled City is known as 120,000 troops, but there are not so many people who can fight, after all, it is a fortress, no matter how large it is, it is limited, these 120,000 people include farmers, blacksmiths, herdsmen, etc., who supply the fortress with living materials, as well as their families, these people have built a small city near the fortress, which is partially connected with the fortress and is protected by the garrison.
There are only about 50,000 troops stationed in the Qinglong Walled City, and the number of generals is quite large, and the most important of them must be Zheng Tianyang, the martial god of Tianyang.
Zheng Tianyang's age is unknown, similar to most people who cultivate the fire system, his hair and beard will tend to be red due to the accumulation of fire elements in his body, but the red color of his hair is a bit strange, closer to the color of orange peel, very bright.
No one knows how old Zheng Tianyang is, the age of the martial god is a mystery, Qiu Wuyi has actually seen the martial god, it is a martial god who defected to Yongguo, working as a teacher in the Tianwu Hall, and he is also an old man whose age is a mystery.
"Tianyang Gong, the army on the opposite side has begun to move. ”
Huo Zhiguang, the titular defender of the Qinglong Walled City, respectfully reported the battle situation to Zheng Tianyang in person, and before Zheng Tianyang arrived, he was the first person in the city.
"It doesn't matter, this group of people is just a rabble, I have ambush soldiers, and when the time comes, they will naturally be in chaos, and you will kill them together. ”
Zheng Tianyang stroked his orange beard, his voice was as thick and calm as a bell, faintly containing the sound of gold and iron, and his sleeves were automatically filled with true qi between his gestures, and he was already eager to try.
With Zheng Tianyang here, the entire Qinglong Walled City was reassured, and even individual soldiers became a little arrogant.
"Obey the orders of the Heavenly Yang Gong!"
Huo Zhiguang heard Zheng Tianyang say this, and he had to admire in his heart, if he calculates more and wins, can he still suffer defeat if he can calculate to this extent?
Zheng Tianyang's order was issued to the whole army in this way, and the soldiers in the Qinglong Walled City are all experienced veterans who can strictly implement military orders, and they may sometimes play some tricks, but when the order really comes down, everyone will implement it meticulously.
When Zheng Tianyang was the only one left in the most gorgeous military tent, Lord Martial God, who was the spiritual pillar of all the soldiers in the entire city, suddenly showed a cold sneer.
It's easy to let an army collapse, but it will take some time to sweep them away, and he doesn't want to destroy this precious Qinglong walled city, so it is not appropriate to directly turn against the water in the city.
The tactic he formulated was very simple, that is, to take advantage of the fact that the army in the city was killed and attacked from both sides with the army on the opposite side, and wiped out all these tens of thousands of people in an instant, and then Ji Xiong and the other three were not stationed in the city, and immediately attacked several cities planned in advance, and tried to beat Liao Taihao into serious injuries in one battle.
It's not for money or glory or power, as a martial god, he has already gained too much, and now what fills Zheng Tianyang's heart is just an almost distorted attachment, and for this attachment, he is willing to become a traitor.
Because it wasn't him who betrayed first, that's all.
At that time, the army of Ji Xiong and the other three generals seemed to be chaotic, but in fact it became a pocket, waiting for the soldiers to be killed.
It's almost time.
Zheng Tianyang opened the military tent and looked into the distance, just now he heard a strange sound, could it be the action signal that Ji Xiong had said in advance?
"What a sound!"
Ji Xiong is a strong man who has experienced a hundred battles, as soon as the strange sound sounded, he immediately realized that something was wrong, although he arranged a fake "ambush", but now is far from the time to launch, and this sound has absolutely nothing to do with ambushes and the like, no matter how you listen to it, it is a cannon sound.
His foreboding was correct.
Several shells with white smoke fell from the sky without warning, turning into scorching flowers of death, and the exploding projectiles were inaccurate, but they were all lined up in extremely tight formations, which could easily hit a unit.
Even the most elite troops could not withstand the oncoming cannons with their own bodies, and perhaps the warriors who were the squad leaders could barely resist one or two blows, and for the vast majority of people, it was the gaze of death that descended on their heads.
The light of the explosion flashed one after another on the plain, countless stumps and severed arms were blown into the air, and the blood rain suddenly fell on the soldiers who had not yet been shelled, staining their dull faces red.
This is just the first act of the death overture.
With a deafening and terrifying loud bang, a huge cannonball with more power than ten times more powerful landed impartially in the middle of the plain, this blow was not trivial, even the solid ground could not withstand it, and a huge pit appeared in front of everyone in shock, and the army standing here could not find even a single residue.
"What the hell is this! Hold the line for me! Hold on!"
Ji Xiong roared angrily, no one answered his question, and now all the army was in chaos, and the artillery bombardment falling from the sky did not stop for a moment, and sometimes there was a particularly powerful artillery bombardment, and the enemy did not know where the enemy came from after the loss of the army.
"The place where the cannon was fired is the mountain over there! This cannonball is not a cannon to defend the city, but a cannon used on a ship!"
Jiang Laowan had more experience in the war than everyone present, and he immediately deduced from the frequency of the shelling what was the artillery, but there was not even a small lake in this area, let alone a river, that could row a boat.
"Ship, battleship, tell me where the battleship came from! Did it fall from the sky! Hurry up and help me stabilize!"
Ji Xiong was already so angry that his face turned red, and he shouted unceremoniously to Jiang Laowan, so far, although the army's morale has collapsed, the three main generals and the generals under their command have not lost their cool, and they are still trying their best to rectify the scattered team.
"One more round, this time to aim at the guys on horseback, at first glance it is the main general, do you hear it!"
On the top of the hill more than ten kilometers away, Ling Qi gestured to the sailors who were working hard to load the shells.
"Old ...... We can't see it, boss!"
The sailor was stunned and muttered aggrievedly.
"Ahh
Ling Qi was tasked with directing several pirate warships to open fire, including Guo Yong's flagship, but the flagship was not here, and like other ships, it "climbed" up a high hill and hid it with branches and other branches at a position about the limit of its range.
Why did the ship appear on the mountain out of thin air, naturally Ling Qi manipulated the floating city to take advantage of the dark moon and high wind to transport it up.
At the same time, these people were also the pirates who "attacked" the ports of Qiu Wuyi, and the army of the Earls of Daystar who fought with them was naturally not completely annihilated.
Bypassing the eyes and ears of the enemies on both sides, Qiu Wuyi's fangs were finally revealed.
"Keep firing! The more the merrier! Don't worry about hitting!"
Ling Qi was a good sniper, but she didn't seem to be a good commander, and even so, the sailors still obeyed her words, and more shells slanted from the air towards Situ Wei's army on the plain.
