Chapter 689: The Tang Army is defeated
Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people?!
With no other choice, the Tang cavalry at the North City Gate took the lead in abandoning their weapons and surrendering, and slowly spread into the city, which played an exemplary role. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking at the Tang cavalry, dismounting, abandoning weapons, surrendering, Wu Xin and the people who left the army, I couldn't help but be a little excited, not to mention the Tang **** pawn itself, the war horses are piles of gold coins, or more precious strategic resources.
"General Wuwu led fifty Xinwu Imperial Guards and 10,000 Xinwu Jingwei to guard here and place the surrendered army!"
Feeling the chaotic situation in the city, Wu Xin quickly instructed Wu Long, Wu Xiang and others, and then took the rest of Xin Wuwei and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
Now that the commanders and generals of the Tang Army have left, there are still some commanding abilities left in the City Lord's Mansion, but there are not many.
With the environment in the city, it was naturally impossible for too many cavalry to set up a position or make a big move, and the main generals such as Li Yuan and Li Xiaogong fled, which made most of the Tang cavalry left behind lose their command and seemed even more chaotic.
At this time, there were still countless Tang cavalry, full of streets and alleys, either wandering around like headless flies, confused, or waiting to line up to go out of the city; only a smaller part was still intercepting the departing army under the command of the generals, and the main objects were naturally the Wolong Barbarian Guards and Hulei Iron Cavalry.
It can be said that the treasure of the military storage transported the siege equipment, and Wang Wuxin personally took action, broke the city in one fell swoop, stunned the Tang army, and scared away the Tang generals, so as to trap nearly 500,000 cavalry in one fell swoop.
"Boom ......"
Wu Xin led the army to the City Lord's Mansion, and when he broke through the gate with a stick and entered the Mansion, there were only a dozen civil officials left in the City Lord's Mansion.
The representatives of the rest of the various forces or the military generals of the Tang State have either left the city with the Tang King a long time ago, or led the army to fight outside, or they have already secretly run away!
"Although you are useless, you will be abandoned. However, Lone will give you a chance, either immediately order the remnants of the army to surrender, or Lone will kill you immediately!"
Looking at the dozen or so flustered and frightened civil officials, Wu Xin scolded with murderous intent.
Just these dozen civilian officials are naturally not qualified to decide the movement of Tang Qi, let alone make them surrender to the enemy.
However, everything is just a "name", Tang Qi has no leader, and is in a state of confusion and despair, some people are the first to surrender, and many people surrender by the way. If these dozen or so civilian officials could give Tang military orders, it would be much easier to surrender.
Civil officials already have a lot of thoughts, as an abandoned group, now they have the opportunity to live and show their merits, and these dozen or so civil officials should come down very quickly.
An hour later......
The follow-up infantry army has not yet arrived in Yongfu City, but most of the Tang cavalry in the city have surrendered and are imprisoned in the military camp in the city.
Until the overall situation has been decided, Zhai Rang, Cheng Biting Jin, Shan Xiongxin, Di Mingdie, Shang Shifu and other generals are still a little unbelievable.
I never thought that the war could be fought like this, and the siege could be so easy, with 150,000 cavalry, it was so easy to capture a giant city-level city with nearly 800,000 troops, and recruited nearly 500,000 enemy troops, captured nearly 500,000 war horses, and countless grains and grass materials.
Thinking back to everything before, everyone will be a little dream-like trance.
Half an hour later, the follow-up army arrived at Yongfu City.
At this time, at the height of Yongfu City, a nine-story pagoda tens of meters high and pitch-black was suspended in the air, slowly turning...... It's the Futu Purgatory Tower!
So far, the battle has basically subsided, and even the beacon fire has been extinguished.
The remnants of dead air, evil energy, and violent qi have been absorbed by the "Futu Purgatory Tower".
In this way, Yongfu City is still full of corpses and ruins, but it strangely gives people a rather calm feeling, rather than a cruel, bloody, chaotic atmosphere, which is also one of the main functions of the "Futu Purgatory Tower".
After initially refining the "Futu Purgatory Tower", Wu Xin obtained a lot of corresponding information.
It is rumored that the power of Buddhism to suppress hell is ...... The King of Jizo, who has four great treasures:
The Pudu tin rod represents the Dharma, the Tianxin Mani bead represents compassion, the holy beast Di Ting, which represents the discernment, and the Sanji robe contains the three auspicious blessings of longevity, which represents the blessing of the field.
However, few people know that the king of Jizo has another treasure that is dedicated to suppressing the recalcitrant spirits of hell, which means that the Buddha also has fire.
This supreme treasure is the Futu Purgatory Tower!
This is the true treasure of King Jizo, not only containing the exercises practiced by King Jizo, but also containing the power of King Jizo to suppress hell!
The so-called "hell is not empty, vow not to become a Buddha", the most famous grand wish of the king of Jizo, has a great relationship with this treasure.
"Futu Purgatory Tower" seems to have only nine floors, but it is nine layers of yin and yang, a total of eighteen floors, representing eighteen hells, the interior is its own space, and it is self-acting.
It's a pity that Wu Xin's cultivation realm is not enough, and he only preliminarily recognizes the master, not even refining, so he can't know too much information. Knowing that the interior is its own space, it can only collect the dead souls, not the living and the dead.
Now it can only be used to practice the "Futu Town Prison Sutra", and it can be used to absorb the dead qi, evil qi, evil qi, and dead souls of the battlefield, and the effect is similar to the "reincarnation umbrella of all beings".
Of course, the "Futu Purgatory Tower" is much stronger than the "Reincarnation Umbrella of All Beings", which can release the fierce spirits and evil ghosts in the tower to ward off the enemy, and can also be used to smash people.
......
The sun is setting, and the sky is full of sunset.
Emperor Mingdie led the Wolong Barbarian Guards to stay behind to guard Yongfu City and be responsible for handling the follow-up matters.
Li Wang Wuxin led more than 30,000 Xinwu guards, Shang Shifu and 30,000 Hulei iron cavalry, Zhai Rang, Cheng Yanjin, Shan Xiongxin and 50,000 cavalry, quickly left the city to the north, continued to pursue the Tang army, quite a never-ending posture.
The Tang army, which was defeated and left Yongfu City, was about 200,000 and was soon divided into two parts:
One was led by Li Yuan, the king of Tang, and retreated to Xuyi County in the north, with only the Tang Janissaries and some remnants, numbering about 70,000;
One was led by Li Xiaogong, most of whom were Beidi Tiecai, numbering about 150,000, and went to Anyi County in the northeast to join the coalition army.
Originally, more than 100,000 iron horsemen were rushing into the sky, and they were mighty and ambitious.
Now there are only more than 70,000 left, miserable and miserable, Tang King Li Yuan seems to be dozens of years old, listless all the way, depressed, the army is even more silent, and morale is low.
"Report ......"
When Wang Wuxin led his army to leave the city and go north, the Tang army scouts immediately knew about it and reported it to Li Yuan at great speed.
"Arrogance! Too much deception! Too much deception......
When he heard the report, Li Yuan was so angry that his facial features were hideous, and he gritted his teeth and scolded angrily.
However, scolding and scolding, there are only about 70,000 remnants of the army left, and they are caught up by more than 100,000 iron horsemen who have left the army, and they are basically dead!
Fortunately, when the Tang army invaded the south, it was mainly cavalry, and many troops were left to defend the cities captured along the road, but they were not without the power to resist.
In particular, the nearest county town of Xuyi, located on the border of Jiangdu County, was the primary base for the Tang army to covet the capital.
Most of the Tang army's half-infantry army was in the city, with more than two million troops. As soon as Wang Wuxin dared to chase after Xuyi County, Li Yuan would dare to fight to the death, and he would no longer be as caught off guard and "unmatched" as Yongfu County! )
