Shi Le did not hesitate to let more than 8,000 elite soldiers be buried with him. He just wanted to burn Long Chen to death at the north gate.
But in the end, his troops were burned to pieces, but Long Chen blasted open the north gate and left...
Shi Le looked at the north gate that was blasted open in shock. He just watched Long Chen blast open the north gate with a lion's roar.
"The lion roars..."
Shi Le watched in confusion as Long Chen left, followed by the Xixia soldiers fleeing for their lives.
Shi Le couldn't understand. How powerful could a lion's roar be? It could actually blow open the city gate?
The lion's roar is a move of the Western Xia secret technique, the Wild Lion Art. No one knows the lion's roar better than Shi Le, but he never thought that the lion's roar can open the city gate. This is too fake!
"I have been practicing for decades..."
Shi Le has been practicing for decades, but he can't compare to Long Chen who has been practicing for just a few months...
Long Chen's Mad Lion Technique came from Shi Jingxiang, and Shi Jingxiang had only followed Long Chen for a few months.
"Your Majesty, Long Chengen has run away!"
The general next to him shouted, his tone was anxious but also a little relieved.
The general wanted to kill Long Chen, but he didn't want to see all the soldiers burned alive.
The north gate was blasted open, Long Chen ran away, and other soldiers could also take the opportunity to save their lives.
Shi Le looked at the surging firemen and sighed helplessly: "God won't help me!"
To the east, the Long family army arrived, and Shi Le immediately ordered to retreat to the palace.
After the city wall was breached, the palace wall was the last barrier.
Outside the north gate.
Long Chen rushed out with Bai Tingting and Gan Zhen, followed by the fleeing Xixia soldiers, many of whom were carrying fire.
The more the soldier ran, the greater the fire on his body. Long Chen shouted: "Roll on the spot!"
Gan Zhen looked at the soldiers who were being burned and screaming, and he couldn't bear to kill them any more, so he ordered help to put out the fire.
The Long family troops who came from outside the city also helped rescue people and put out the fire with sand and earth.
The soldier who fell to the ground was dying, his skin and flesh were burnt black, and he was moaning in pain everywhere.
"Shi Le was so ruthless that he even burned himself!"
Bai Tingting really didn't understand Shi Le's behavior.
Gan Zhen scolded: "Shi Le is inherently cruel. He never cares about the life or death of others."
Ahem...
Long Chen slowly squatted down, covering his chest and coughing.
Bai Tingting came over to support Long Chen and asked, "Did you get hurt by exerting too much force just now?"
Long Chen nodded, coughed twice more, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his trachea.
Bai Tingting was shocked and said distressedly: "Take some medicine and heal your wounds first!"
Just now, I forced the lion to roar and concentrated all the energy in my lungs. The explosive roar shocked my lungs.
Long Chen sat down cross-legged. Bai Tingting took out a healing elixir. Long Chen swallowed it and said, "You go ahead, don't worry about me, and go pick up Zhang Qian and the others."
Bai Tingting refused to leave and said: "With Lao Wu and the others, don't worry, we have four Emperor Wus in charge, we will definitely win!"
Gan Zhen asked: "The east gate was breached?"
Gan Zhen had been fighting at the north gate and didn't know the situation at the east gate.
Bai Tingting said: "When we saw your signal flares, we started to attack the city. After waiting for a long time and not seeing the adults come back, we knew something was wrong."
"Lao Wu ordered an all-out attack on the city. Linglong smashed the city gate, and we rushed in."
"I fought from the east gate to the north gate."
Gan was shocked and said happily: "I thought the mission failed, but I didn't expect you to succeed."
Bai Tingting said: "Thank you for attracting Shi Le at the north gate. The defense at the east gate is lax, so we have a chance."
Long Chen sat in meditation to heal his wounds, while the fighting in the city continued. When daybreak, Zhang Qian led the troops to the north gate.
"What's wrong, husband?"
Zhang Qian's heart skipped a beat when she saw Long Chen sitting cross-legged on the ground with blood stains in front of him.
Gongsun Linglong also jumped off the horse and asked, "What's going on?"
Long Chen slowly opened his eyes, shook his head and said with a smile: "Last night... I almost got burned to death. I used too much force in a hurry and injured my lungs."
As he said that, Long Chen coughed a few more times, and blood foam spurted out.
Zhang Qian said distressedly: "Stop talking, every word is bloody..."
Long Chen smiled and stopped talking.
Zhang Qian looked at the Xixia soldiers lying on the ground, all looking miserable.
"We have captured Xingqing City, and only the palace in the north is left."
"Shi Le retreated to the palace and planned to make a final stand."
Before Long Chen could ask, Zhang Qian first told about the battle situation last night.
Wu Jian, Wu Chuchu, and Wu Xiangyun came over on horseback. When they saw Long Chen, the three of them immediately dismounted.
"Sir, are you okay?"
"Husband, are you okay?"
Long Chen smiled and said nothing. Gongsun Linglong said: "I'm injured, I can't speak, and I vomit blood whenever I speak."
Wu Xiangyun's expression changed when he heard this. He hugged Long Chen and asked, "What's going on? Is it so serious?"
Long Chen laughed softly and said: "It's okay, don't listen to her nonsense."
Wu Jian asked in shock: "Who could hurt the Lord so seriously?"
With Long Chen's martial arts skills, no one can pose a threat to Long Chen except Shi Le. How could he be so seriously injured?
Wu Chuchu and others also found it strange.
Bai Tingting pointed to the collapsed city gate and said: "Shi Le set a fire last night and the situation was critical. Sir, I opened the north gate with a lion's roar alone!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this...
Gongsun Linglong said speechlessly: "You can use the roar of a lion to knock down the city gate, why do you need cannons?"
Long Chen rolled his eyes at Gongsun Linglong and said, "I want to stand three meters in front of the city gate and vomit blood after I yell. Can you bear it?"
Gongsun Linglong was speechless.
In this siege, the power of the artillery seems to be low, which is related to the city defense of Xingqing City.
The city wall of Xingqing City is ten meters thick, and the horses running on the city are all made of stone. Of course, it is difficult to demolish it.
But the power of the cannon was still great, and the east city gate was so thick that it was eventually shattered.
If it were an ordinary city, the city wall could be penetrated directly.
Hearing that Long Chenguang collapsed the city wall with the lion's roar, Wu Xiangyun was shocked and said: "Husband, are you too fierce?"
Wu Chuchu coughed dryly and poked Wu Xiangyun with her elbow. There was some ambiguity in what she said...
Wu Xiangyun knew what Wu Chuchu meant, and immediately explained: "No, I mean that you are very fierce on the battlefield, I didn't say in bed..."
Ahem...
The more you explain, the more obscene it becomes...
"Well... let's go over there and have a look."
Wu Jian and Gan Zhen pretended to have something to do and left...
Long Chen looked at Wu Xiangyun speechlessly...this little daughter-in-law was a little dull.
"Okay, clean the battlefield, surround the palace, let the brothers have a good rest, and enter the palace tomorrow!"
Long Chen whispered, Bai Tingting stayed to take care of Long Chen, and the others immediately went back to lead the troops.
Bai Tingting didn't lead any troops, so she just happened to be accompanying Long Chen.
"Sir, what should we do with these people?"
Wu Jian looked helpless at the Xixia soldiers who were burned all over the ground.
The battle is still going on, Wu Jian can ignore them and let them wait for death.
Anyway, it was Shi Le who set the fire, not Long Chen.
Long Chen sighed and said, "Let the military doctors treat you. Every one can be saved."
Burns are very troublesome. Mild ones can be saved, but serious ones can only be left to die. There is nothing we can do about it.
Wu Jian immediately asked military doctors to save people.
In the palace.
Shi Le was sitting on the dragon chair, with Lu Qichang, Le Min and some generals standing underneath.
Shi Le had his hair removed, his hair was messy, his armor was bloody, his left hand was wrapped in gauze, and the blood was black, and he looked very embarrassed.
The generals and colonels below were not much better, they were all disgraced and dejected.
Shi Le didn't speak, and neither did anyone else. There was dead silence in the hall.
