066, Chiwangqiu's order (II)
Ba Muguo captured Bai Shuxin's witness, and Bai Boyi, the city lord of Baiguo City, led people to sneak into Shanchuan City to save his brother, but he was captured by mistake, and Ba Muguo took advantage of the situation to raise troops and suddenly captured Baiguo City.
This conflict came and ended quickly, and after Shaowu captured Baiguo City, he did not move and sent an envoy to question Zheng Gu. It will take time for the news to reach Chiwangqiu, and Chiwangqiu can't speak again even if he wants to dissuade him. Because Zheng Quan wants the life of Shaowu, even ordinary people have to seek revenge if they have this experience, let alone the king of a country, can they not make people angry?
Zheng Muguo and Ba Muguo gathered heavy troops at the border but did not fight, but at this time, Xiang Poor suddenly inserted a pole, led the army into the border of Ba Muru, and went straight to the national capital in three cities. Xiang Qian didn't ask Chi Wangqiu's advice in advance, and the strategy he pursued was to march into the god fast and take Bamuro by surprise.
Under such circumstances, who can dissuade Bamuro from raising troops to counterattack? Today, the army of Xiangqi has been killed under the city of Badu, and the army of Shaowu has also been killed under the city of Xiangdu. In fact, when Xingyao gave the order, Xiang Qian was still attacking the pass between Pengshan and Zhangren Mountain, and Shaowu had just broken the defense line of Yuegeng's army, but this master had already judged the direction of the battle and knew the strategic intentions of the commanders of both sides.
Since the war is fought like this, it is inevitable that the capital of one side will be breached, and in the end, it will not be good. So Xingyao also gave an order to the sect liaison stationed in the Xiangmuro Kingdom and the Bamuro Kingdom: if the Badu city is broken, he must try to bring one of Shaowu's brothers to Chiwangqiu, and if the Xiangdu city is broken, he will try to bring back one of the poor sons as much as possible.
Xingsha used the rock pigeon to transmit the message, and the rock pigeon carried a small magic weapon on its body, which was attached to the idea of the gods, and it should be interpreted by the secret method of Chiwang Hill. Liang Yichen has been thinking about what to do after receiving the order, when the Yuxuan army was defeated, he was waiting for someone to come to the door, and made a request, which would always have more face and be easier to speak than coming to the door himself.
But Liang Yichen waited for three days. Yu Xuan didn't even find him, he secretly inquired about the news, Yu Xuan had already packed his things and was about to retreat west. Liang Yichen almost couldn't hold back, if Yu Xuan didn't come to him, he was already planning to go directly to Yu Xuan to ask for someone, and gave some promises in passing.
At this time, Yu Xuan finally begged to come to the door, which made him greatly relieved and made a request. Liang Yichen has been waiting very hard these days, but the mission has been completed perfectly. How can you not be upset?
......
Lu met Liang Yichen was just a small episode on the march, and the Shaowu army soon advanced to the city of Xiangdu. Although this city is not as grand as Batu City, it is not small, and the walls are tall and strong, and the four gates are closed at the moment.
Shao Wu ordered the siege of the city from the east, south, and north, but left a gap in the west. This is also the construction of Lingbaoti, although the army of Yuxuan was defeated, but in advance the people of the nearby villages were withdrawn into the capital, if the siege of the four gates was too urgent. Organizing soldiers and civilians to enter the city and spreading rumors that if the city is breached, it will be slaughtered, and the people will have to fight to the death.
This is the strongest city that Shaowu encountered on the way to the army, and it can be very costly to blindly besiege and storm. It is better to leave a glimmer of life for the other party, and it can also disturb the morale of the army in the city.
Shao Wu adopted this Jianyì, and he wished that the defenders of the city would flee, even if they would pursue him in the future. It's also much easier to deal with than storming the capital at the moment. Shao Wu did not surround the west gate, sent troops to block the east gate and the south gate, and set the siege car to attack the east gate. Before the war. He also sent a group of monks with loud voices to stand in front of the formation and shout to persuade him to surrender.
General Zheng Yuguang, the deputy soldier in charge of defending the city, did not take the initiative to surrender the city, but ordered the sergeant to shoot a row of cold arrows. The siege battle was impossible to avoid, Shao Wu waved his hand and ordered, and the siege arrow tower, the climbing slope, and the city-breaking hammer all advanced to the east gate, and finally launched a strong attack. Although Xiang Poor is not as popular as Hou Li's father and son in the country, but after all, there are still forces loyal to him, and it is impossible for Xiang Du City to go down without a fight, depending on how big the price Shaowu pays in the end.
Although the soldiers and civilians defending the city did not surrender under Yuguang's strict orders, they inevitably felt a burst of despair in their hearts when they looked at the murderous army of Bamuro State outside the city. If the poor can't return to the division in time, and there is no large army to reinforce in the rear, this capital will not be able to hold it sooner or later, if it is not for the strong city walls, many sergeants may have already wanted to escape, and they are defending the city at the moment.
In the sound of war drums, Yuguang looked solemn, standing on the city tower to command, he was judging the direction of the main attack of the young army. The siege of the city gate with a hammer seems to be a feint, and the elite and heavy troops of the young generals are concentrated on the north side of the city gate, pushing the climbing slope to try to get close to the city wall, followed by many siege arrow towers to cover, and the area around the area is concentrated with the most large siege equipment.
Whether the capital can be defended or not, Yuguang tries not to think about it, he just wants to do his best to fight the sharp spirit of Shaowu, if the main elite of the siege is frustrated, this wave of attacks is defeated, and he can usher in a respite. He also knew that Shaowu had not besieged the West Gate, so he had already ordered the West Gate to be closed, no one in the city was allowed to flee, and all the young men were to be organized to go to battle.
On the side of Bamurokoku, it was Pan Gu who commanded the army to resist the climbing slope and rush to the city wall. As a rule of thumb, the first wave of counterattack they encounter should be an arrow coming at them. However, the sergeants were hiding under the giant wooden slopes of the castle, and the threat of arrows was not great, and when they approached the walls, the second wave of the defenders' counterattack was a large number of rolling stones, and the co-operation of the army could be combined with spells, which would cause heavy casualties.
Therefore, the speed of the attack must be fast, and more climbs must be successfully leaned against the city wall, and the command army array will rush up to fight, and the sergeants on the siege arrow tower will take the opportunity to shoot and cover.
The hill slope forward, the arrows on the city came like rain, and then the rolling stones fell, and several sides of the hill climbed the city wall, and the elite army took the opportunity to cover and kill. This is the most critical moment of the siege, if you can rush to the city wall to establish a local position, so that the follow-up army formation will continue to surge, there is a hope of breaking through the city defense in one fell swoop. At this moment, twelve things suddenly shot out of the city
These things are small, barely noticeable in the Arrow Rolling Stones, but they fly out with mana fluctuations.
Pan Gu led the army formation and was rushing towards the city wall, and there was a man standing behind the forward battle formation. He appeared here very suddenly, without armor on his body, only wearing ordinary cloth clothes, and without any weapons in his hands, standing in the position where the rolling stones under the city could not be hit, and the arrows flew and inexplicably changed direction and could not hit him, this person was the tiger baby.
When the twelve things flew into the air outside the city, the tiger baby suddenly raised her head and waved her hand to shoot out two green leaves.
For the first time since she marched with the army, the tiger baby appeared on the battlefield where the front line was fighting. It is also interesting to say, Huwa has only one experience on the battlefield in his life, he has never even served as a general who commands the army, but in later generations he has been regarded as an ancestor by many great military artists, and some people even respect the Taoist ancestor Taishang as the ancestor of the soldiers.
Because Taishang not only learned the art of war and used the art of war, but also followed the army to pacify Bayuan and witness all things of everyone, of course, he was also proficient in the art of war strategy, and the way he preached also inspired later generations of soldiers.
But at this moment, it is impossible for Huwa to think so much, it is he who took the initiative to ask to join the battle formation, not only worried about the pan gourd charging in front, but also expected that the situation that may be encountered in the storming of the city wall, the other party will use the secret treasure of Soul Eater Smoke, which has the power of mass destruction.
The young army fought all the way, and the opponent had not used the Soul Eater Smoke. Many of the Soul Eater Smoke stored in the Xiangmuro Nation's arsenal must have been taken away by Xiang Poor, but those left behind will definitely be used when defending the capital.
If there is no wind today, it doesn't matter what favorable wind direction you occupy. The main attack of the Shaowu army is concentrated in the most elite military formation and various siege equipment, if a batch of soul devouring smoke is concentrated and detonated at this time, the poisonous smoke formed by the gray cloud and black fog will naturally settle, quickly enveloping the army outside the city, causing casualties and panic in Yanzhòng.
Tiger Baby has experience in dealing with Soul Eater Smoke, so she took the initiative to ask to follow Pan Gu to the battlefield. Shao Wu agreed, but ordered him not to rush into battle, but to stand at the back of the battle formation to prevent the other party from using the secret treasure.
The tiger baby expected it well, the other party really used the soul devouring smoke, and in order to pursue the maximum killing effect, he concentrated on twelve pieces at a time. The tiger baby himself has the five-colored divine lotus protection, of course, he is not afraid of these gray mist and black clouds, but the mana of the twelve soul devouring smoke bursting out at the same time, he does not have the ability to follow hard, let alone calmly resolve it. Therefore, he also used the secret treasure - the talisman leaf given by the elephant sha.
Huwa also has a secret sword talisman created by himself, but it is not of much use on this occasion, the sword talisman can only be used to attack the enemy, and cannot expel and dissipate those poisonous smokes, and his cultivation mana is too far away from the elephant sha. To be on the safe side, Huwa knocked out the two remaining rune leaves on her body to ensure that nothing went wrong.
At the beginning, the three talisman leaves given by Xiangsha, the tiger baby had tried one, and she already knew its power and control. The two rune leaves seem to be played at the same time, but they are actually cast one after another, and the tiger baby can only control one of them at a time.
I saw that the twelve Soul Eater Smoke Secret Treasures had just burst open in the air, and a rune leaf flew diagonally, and the light and shadow exploded into the shape of a boy dressed in plain clothes. The tiger baby not only used the power of the secret treasure, but also cast a spell himself, he did not let people see the face of the boy clearly, only to see the illusion of the figure waving in mid-air, and then a piece of clear light spilled out, clear light rolled up to support the explosion of poisonous smoke, so that it did not drift to the city.
Immediately after that, another leaf talisman unfolded, and the shape of the illusion almost completely coincided with Fang Cai, and the figure in mid-air waved his sleeves towards the city wall, and a sword-like rain of light sprinkled out, enveloping the defenders. But this rain of light is not a murderous sword, with a sealing and binding force, everywhere it reaches, the soldiers defending the city all snort and fall to the ground. (To be continued......)
