Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Great Army of a Million Dollars
Out of tune!
The general snorted resentfully, turned and walked down the city.
It seems that you can't rely on these magic sticks, you can only fight hard, I hope God will favor you and let Tongzhou City survive this catastrophe smoothly!
"Tom tom!"
Three cannon shots shook the earth, and the red cannonballs arced and fell into the city.
"Kill~~!"
The roar was like a huge wave crashing towards Tongzhou City, and the bodies of the officers and soldiers defending the city suddenly stiffened, densely packed with countless siege troops, and their pressure was like a mountain!
The troops, which were originally as quiet as a forest, suddenly launched, and the invasion was like fire, quickly rushing to the city wall.
Before the shocked officers and soldiers defending the city could react, artillery, boulders, and arrows rained down!
"Look for cover, look for cover!"
Officers at all levels reacted and shouted loudly, the opponent's offensive was too urgent, and the number of war weapons far exceeded that of Tongzhou, if they didn't dodge one or two, a wave of attacks would kill and wound most of them!
Accompanied by the sound of artillery and arrows, screams and explosions caused by the ignition of gunpowder rang out from time to time at the head of the city, and the officers and men huddled under the battlements, praying in horror that this wave of attacks would end as soon as possible.
"Get up, attack!"
Seeing that the number of falling arrows decreased, the artillery whistle stopped, and the officers who did not die shouted, all the soldiers immediately got up, some ran to the remaining artillery and bed crossbows, and some stood up and opened their bows and waited to be fired.
Unexpectedly, a dense rain of arrows fell, seemingly never stopping, instantly claiming a large number of lives, and the city head suddenly emptied, revealing countless defensive gaps.
The siege team armed with a single knife and leather shield rushed to the top of the city with the help of a long pole pushed by dozens of people, and fought hard to stabilize the territory on the city wall.
Immediately after countless long ladders were erected on the city wall, a steady stream of soldiers poured up to the city, accompanied by the roar of disarming without killing, and quickly cleared the surrounding area.
The corners of Chai Tiannuo's mouth are slightly upturned, Tongzhou City will undoubtedly be broken!
The Tongzhou City Defender's face was pale, he couldn't have imagined that only one wave of impact would break through his own defense, this Spark Army was not a fool who didn't understand the world in his imagination at all, but an extremely capable veteran of a hundred battles!
"Can't let them in, can't let them in!"
The Great Priest of Cangtian Dao Tongzhou was wet with sweat, and he knew that whenever the Starfire Army passed by, the generals would be fine if they surrendered, but Cangtian Dao would be wiped out.
Now the situation must be fought for its life!
"All the Daoists drink the runic water!"
The priest roared, and the assembled Taoist disciples took the talisman water that was said to be the elixir of life and drank it all, and the priest showed a look of yin and yang on his face, took out a golden talisman from his arms, and watched the spark army on the city wall fall down.
"The gates are open, charge!"
Feng Ximo saw the huge Shuangdao City Gate being opened one by one by the soldiers who had been attacking, and his tense skin suddenly loosened.
The city gate is wide open, millions of troops are surging, all obstacles will fall apart, Tongzhou City, broken!
Heavily armored iron cavalry rushed in with tuna in hand, and the siege team that captured the head of the city turned their weapons of war to attack the teams that were still resisting in the city, and under the double blow, the various defensive points were quickly disintegrated.
"King Dadai, the overall situation has been decided, and next, we are ready to attack the capital."
Tiehu looked into the distance and said with some excitement.
Chai Tiannuo raised his hand and slapped him on the back of the head:
"They all said don't call it the king of the Great Dynasty, but also call it, and you don't want to draw!"
Iron Tiger grinned and rubbed the back of his head, and said with grinned teeth:
"Immortal Master, this Tongzhou City is really not beaten, and it hasn't even been able to withstand it for half an hour, and it is not as good as some of the previous cities."
"Nonsense, you don't look at the current Spark Army, how can it be compared to before."
"But"
Chai Tiannuo shook the feather fan gently, pinched the bone joints with his left hand, frowned and said:
"The progress is too fast, there will be waves, I'm afraid there will be a lot of casualties, Tiehu, you go and talk to Feng Ximo, like this......
Excited roars came one after another, the last line of defense of the defenders of Tongzhou City was broken, and then, the tide battle array could sweep the entire city!
"Heaven forbid!"
Suddenly, countless Daoists in golden robes poured out from all over the building, their eyes were scarlet, and they didn't care about the spear blade that stabbed at them, and slammed into the battle array!
Oh, how can the number of Heavenly Daoists be so large?
"Heaven please!"
"Boom~~!"
The sound of explosions came and went, blood and flesh splashed everywhere, and the original surging offensive was instantly blocked.
Feng Ximo's heart trembled, the Cangtian Dao that he had always wanted to be wary of finally appeared, and as soon as he came up, he didn't care about his life, when did these guys become so determined?
"Please heaven, please heaven!"
With the roar and explosion, everyone retreated step by step, and the soldiers in front opened their bows and shot fiercely, but there were many buildings, but once they entered a range, they would be blown down by the Cangtian Daoists who rushed out, and there was no way to deal with it at all.
"General Feng, General Feng!"
The Iron Tiger rode a horse and galloped, and when he came to Feng Ximo's side, he hurriedly said:
"The immortal master said, open the north gate and let them go!"
Let them go?
Feng Ximo was a little confused, everywhere he went, the Starfire Army would definitely not let go of the Heavenly Daoists, and the immortal master even said that no one was allowed to let go, why did he let them go now?
"The immortal master said, leave a line, vent their resistance heart, and the casualties along the way are smaller!"
Feng Ximo suddenly realized, the sixteenth of the thirty-six plans, and wanted to capture the old one!
"If you want me to die, then you must not die well!"
The Tongzhou priest sitting on the ground cried for a while and laughed for a while, and the eighteen concubines and children around him cried loudly, he knew that when the dedicated Taoist people died, it was the time when his whole family would die.
"Great priest, great priest, the north gate is opened, and the traitors have rushed into the shops along the street, and there is no one to guard the city gate!"
One day, the soldiers ran into the hospital with excitement on their faces to pray, and the Tongzhou priest, whose body was shaking, jumped up and yelled at the squeaky family:
"Don't howl, there's a way to live, get in the car and go~!"
Thousands of gold-clothed Cangtian Daoists withdrew from the north gate in panic, Chai Tiannuo entered Tongzhou City with the team, looked at the soldiers kneeling on the ground, frowned and asked the Tongzhou guards who were stabbed several times and lay on the ground:
"What do you think, the overall situation has been decided, why do you have to die."
"You should know what the Great Wei Imperial Court is like now, why is it like this, foolish loyalty?"
Chai Tiannuo heard from the soldiers who surrendered that General Tongzhou was born as a civilian, had an upright temperament, and was far better than other bureaucrats in the soldiers and the people.
「...... Soldiers, naturally, must be loyal to their duties, and a certain task is to defend the city, how can they surrender without a fight?"
Lang Sheng said that the Tongzhou guard was smiling, and his eyes were getting bigger and bigger, but the luster was slowly disappearing.
Chai Tiannuo squatted down, brushed his palms across his face, Tongzhou Shou General's eyes were closed, and the corners of his mouth were still smiling.
"The crockpot will not be broken from the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle, good man, thick burial!"
"Whoa!"
The city of Tongzhou is broken, and the front is a flat river, and the figure of the Great Wei Kyoto Shangjing is clearly visible.
"Hahahaha, escaped, finally escaped, God bless, God bless!"
The Tongzhou priest laughed, and under the protection of thousands of sectarians, fled to Shangjing.
"Da-da, da-da~"
At first, the sound of falling rain soon turned into the sound of dense horses' hooves, and the Tongzhou priest looked to both sides in panic and found that fifty zhang away from his team was like a sea and iron horse.
