Volume 1 Chapter 449 - Breaking the City (II)
Cao Baijing finished thinking about it, and then listened to her husband's voice: "The two ladies have worked hard...... There are still some mana remnants in Taiping Dao, and there are many people, so there must be targeted actions, except for the three thousand soldiers, ten more magicians will be left...... Well, leave twenty of them here to maintain, and you take the rest of the men and return to the south embankment to cover the long causeway for the red armor heavy cavalry and light cavalry, if the enemy chooses to ......"
The old layout showed fangs, and the new layout continued.
The two listened and gradually laughed, the husband always looked at the surrounding situation with the worst changes, and the preparation was also basket by basket...... It may not always be useful, but there can always be collisions, and there is no harm, which is to prepare for a rainy day.
"Knock, knock, knock" At this moment, there was a fierce battle drum sound in the big array, and the cavalry shouted in unison, raised their flags, charged forward, and galloped south.
The smoke and dust are billowing, the sound of horses' hooves and the sound of torrents are all in one place, and they gallop away like thunder on the beat.
The torrent poured into the chasm, approaching the height of the embankment, and the waves crashed on the shore, kicking up thousands of piles of snow.
Some of the scouts of the battalions who went up to the embankment to reconnoiter were accidentally swept in, and immediately disappeared
Along the road, there are thirty feet high arrow towers, towering in the water, near the islands that seem to be isolated islands, but from a distance they are connected in a north-south direction, but the crossbowmen and sorcerers on it are no longer the governor's crossbowmen and magicians, as early as the morning they are rotated into the distribution of small princes, these people are relatively scattered, and they can only continue the order and attack as much as possible when they climb the arrow tower
The general attack is together, and they can't help but get into it.
"Boom-"
The huge ladders were lowered into the water, the logs were sturdy, and the water sank slightly halfway, only revealing a large plane of one foot, but only a few sheepskin rafts were added, and they immediately floated three feet back, and they were very stable on the water...... Tens of thousands of sappers climbed the ramp of the north-south causeway like ants, pulling this Zhang Yun ladder up the embankment.
Wooden planks were laid on each ladder in a series of spaces, and at this time, several or even a dozen were launched side by side, forming a pontoon bridge hundreds of meters wide, and quickly paved forward.
"Damn, he wants to come directly from the water to attack the city" The envoy Zhenren looked at his face and scolded: "Don't those people on the ground care?"
In an instant, he had the intention to destroy the opponent's embankment, but this distance was just beyond the range of real spells, and there must be a magician to protect him, unless he had a powerful Dao weapon in his hand, if only there were a few leaf fire thunders......
"If the governor and Yu Fan don't move, there must be an accident...... Is Ye Qing trying to show up in poverty?" The envoy Zhenren froze, and his gaze gradually condensed: "It is difficult to destroy the embankment from a distance, but the pontoon bridge can be destroyed halfway, even if the mana is consumed, these must be destroyed."
Far on the north section of the embankment, Cao Ying eagerly climbed the watchtower to check Le Jin's face was dark, these sturdy giant ladders were built by their own overseers, because of the simple structure, the lord and in line with the intention of urging Liu Da'er to go to the ant annex to attack the city and send him to death, he spared no effort to build two thousand......
If all the pontoon bridges transformed from giant ladders were paved, they would be able to pave a hundred-pace-wide water thoroughfare on the three-mile gap and charge directly through the formation
"Is there a reply from the lord?"
"None. β
"Go to Liu Ying immediately and save people" Le Jin only pondered for a moment, had already made up his mind, and coldly ordered: "If there is a mistake, I will bear it." β
This is the responsibility of breaking the alliance, but before the words fell, he heard the sound of "rumbling" horses' hooves from behind, and Le Jin hurriedly looked back.
I saw that a huge cavalry formation was converging under the embankment, tens of thousands, with the five thousand red armor elite cavalry at the front being the most dazzling
At this moment, when the spiritual mist under the embankment dissipated, Liu Jiajun completed all the necessary foreshadowing, and finally removed all the disguises, completely exposing the intention of the offensive means......
"Cavalry rushing through the pass, isn't this too exaggerated?" all the enemies they saw had a feeling of powerlessness.
Even the coalition forces were mostly kept in the dark, and at this time, countless people looked at this scene in shock, unbelievable.
The world world collapsed in front of my eyes, and a more magnificent magical new world was opened.
"Boom-"
A rain of arrows and spells landed on the pontoon bridge that reached the middle of the water surface of the chasm, but at this time there was the protection and blessing of the sorcerer's regiment, and the sappers were even more desperate to move the pontoon bridge forward.
And the major arrow towers scattered and trapped in the middle of this water surface all hesitated, and the princes had admonished, and they had attacked each other with Guancheng before......
Guancheng is full of firepower, but it doesn't matter what the difference, all the arrow towers at this distance are attacked at a time, seeing that the Xiliang army is really playing at this time, trapped in the water under the pressure of life and death on the battlefield, the warlock or the crossbowman immediately instinctively counterattacked.
Qianqian glanced at it and immediately identified: "The mana of Taiping Dao has dropped to the danger line."
Looking back at the first wave of Chijia light horsemen ready on the embankment, and looking at the water surface with only 700 steps left in front of him, with a wave of his hand, hundreds of green vines rushed towards Guancheng.
Although they were all hidden half a foot underwater, they formed a series of tough ropeways, and the whole water area was stained red with blood, and the sappers who were resisting the ladder and almost paving the bridge with their lives cheered...... There's something smoother than that
"Cut these vine ropes and cut them," Hu Zhen ordered angrily, and then heard the spell casting order of Qinghe Nusheng: "Freeze the water surface between the green vine ropeway." β
The huge spiritual pressure flashed, and in the sound of freezing, a hundred-meter-wide green vine composite ice surface appeared, and Liu Zhenren was casting a spell to destroy the green vine, and his face instantly turned black when he saw this......
In an instant, I had a premonition that the city could not be defended, and suddenly roared: "Destroy the dividing embankment of the Yellow River quickly, it will be too late if it is too late."
A few real people rushed over, trying to draw a salary.
Qianqian's heart tightened, the spirit pool erupted, and the green vines spread twice, so that the sappers could run along the solid ice surface with a cloud ladder, making it almost impossible to lay the pontoon bridge.
Realizing the danger, the Taiping Daoist desperately extracted the most powerful mana and tried to destroy the Qingteng Ice Surface, but this made Qianqian breathe a sigh of relief and led the magician group to attack.
"Spell mana, a few days and nights of consumption just for this moment," she commanded in a shrieked voice.
"Boom" The surging mana poured out for a while, and compared to the one hundred and seventy enemies whose mana was exhausted, the number of only forty magicians was at this time, and at this time, it had an advantage.
In just one minute, almost along a bloody road, the green vine, ice crystal, and cloud ladder composite pontoon bridge spread to the Tiger Prison Pass, touching and shaking one after another on a width of 100 meters, emitting one roar after another.
"Long liveβ" The sappers shouted excitedly, and all the soldiers who witnessed the Liu family's army, regardless of the foot and cavalry, cheered: "Liu Zhijun is a thousand years old......
"Queen Mother Chitose ......"
"Long live the Great Han......"
Qianqian laughed out loud...... The military spirit is extremely realistic, and as soon as the situation of this water thoroughfare is presented, who can't see that the breakthrough is imminent?
The huge military victory is just around the corner, the glory and merit are only waiting for the Mercedes to go over to pick it up, Shangluo is already a smooth road, how can you not call the mountains for a long time?
And at the moment when the bridge body was shocked, all the Xiliang troops were as white as earth, and they didn't even listen to the shouts of the supervising team, only staring at the surging bridge-laying sappers in front of them, facing this hideous face of shouting and killing
Here, it's a tiger prison
Flood pontoon bridge, such a crazy thing......
Almost at the same time, Zhao Yun whipped hard and shouted: "Charge"
And Zhang Fei stepped off the horse of the good horse and also raised his spear: "Cavalry...... Charge"
Zhang Fei was excited, the eldest brother misled these enemies to attack the city with a mound of earth, but this project is huge and long, not to mention, the slope elevation angle offensive is slow and causes huge casualties, the Taiping Dao magician has a way to sweep people downhill, how can it be a lightning attack like a cavalry?
"Kill"
At this time, there were a lot of Taiping Dao magicians on the opposite side, but this wide and solid ice vine pontoon bridge had been completed, and it was just a few hundred meters away from the enemy's spell casting distance to speed up, and rushed over in one go-
In the dull shock of the pontoon bridge, the horses' hooves trampled on rattan and ice chips, and the five thousand red armor riders were surging, and the rows maintained a certain distance for defensive spells, galloping on the blood-colored pontoon, and the horses came by stepping on the glacier.
Hu Zhen immediately ordered: "The whole army defends and counterattacks"
It's just that this order is basically useless, the city is fighting day and night, and there are not many arrangements in the city in the early morning, only less than 10,000, all of them are extremely tired, and they don't even respond to a few orders.
However, there are still tens of thousands of archers in the rear camp, barely resting and standby, as long as the real person side defeats the watershed and makes the chasm recede, it can directly destroy the ice vine pontoon bridge for the enemy's follow-up troops, and it can be killed by less than 10,000 cavalry that has entered the city
The key is time
Hu Zhen pulled out his sword, and it was a sword against a Taoist priest who escaped, this person's mana was exhausted, he didn't expect Hu Zhen to dare to do this, and suddenly let out a miserable scream, and immediately died on the spot.
Pulled out the sword, did not wipe, let the blood flow down the tip of the sword, and the eyes flashed with a cold light: "The real person has rushed to destroy the river embankment, this is the tea time, no one is allowed to retreat"
"Withstanding this wave is victory"
"Qiang soldiers on top"
"Enforcement Team on top"
"Putting the school on top"
The "boom" red armor cavalry broke through the first line of obstacles, and on the corridor of the city wall with a width of more than ten meters, it was divided into two offensive clusters and poured out on both sides.
Rushed out of a mile only to be blocked by the pile of Qiang soldiers, changed to dismount and fight, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Zhou Feng, Zhang Fangbiao generals did not gnaw these hard bones, from a few stairs straight down into the city, if it were not for the big water outside, they could have opened the city gate.
Nearby were frozen on several towers of arrows in the middle of the river, and the sorcerers and crossbowmen of the princes were stunned as they watched the mixture of friend and foe.
Under the handsome banner of the main city gatehouse, Hu Zhen roared angrily: "Don't retreat from the city"
But this group of red armor soldiers is too powerful, they are all wearing armor, the battle formation cooperates, and they slash and kill again and again, only facing it for a minute, "booming" the city and near the city wall to arrange the first line of defense in turn, the Xiliang army suddenly collapsed, and even the Qiang soldiers were defeated
Sections of the city wall were broken through, and even many Xiliang troops were still in a daze, and they were directly squeezed out of the city by the enemies and friendly troops who rushed in, screaming and falling into the turbid flow of the chasm, and blood gushed out and stained a large area of red water.
"Run, these are not people, they are monsters......"
The defeated soldiers ran down the city one by one, the red tide surged, and when the first black-faced general rushed with a snake spear, the giant eyes like fierce beasts stared.
"Zhang Fei" Hu Zhen swung his sword and was about to catch up, Fan Chou and other cronies hurriedly pulled the boss down: "The city is lonely, the city can still be defended, and the big handsome will die as soon as you die, but it will really collapse...... Handsome"
The spear blade like a dragon has broken through to a hundred paces away, and the thunder roars and rushes: "Hu Nu dares to fight"
"Hurry up, big handsome, I'll stand in the wayβ" Fan Chou rushed up.
Hu Zhen gritted his teeth and gurgled, knowing that what his subordinates said was the truth, his own death would immediately cause the morale of the whole army to collapse, and the main city would be completely occupied by the enemy, even if there were still heavy troops in the city, it was not enough to quickly recapture the city gate under the chaos of command, and the enemy's follow-up army would rush in from the city gate after the chasm receded
"Go" He rushed down, and quickly returned to a Xiliang cavalry army that was catching up in the city, and behind, Fan Chou's screams were quickly heard.
The big banner of Dong characters with white characters on a black background immediately fell at the head of the city, and the new red flag of Liu characters was raised.
"Boom" thunder fell, the water-dividing embankment in the Yellow River exploded, and the water surface suddenly fell rapidly, only a trace of joy appeared, and it faded.
"Is it too late?" Seeing the city's luck explode and disintegrate, and the real human consciousness swept over, I saw the sound of the flood and blood in the chasm receding, and there was a loud creaking sound of the mechanism opening behind the city gate.
