Wuying led the Feng army to capture Pei City. This news greatly encouraged all the Feng armies. The only one who felt unhappy and anxious was Qi Heng.
Although Wuying is the deputy commander of the direct army and Qi Heng's immediate boss, she is only a woman after all. Even she can easily conquer Peicheng. As the main attacker of Tongchuan, how can Qi Heng not be anxious? He has set a goal for himself.
, the capture of Tongchuan must be faster than Wuying's capture of Peicheng, and the losses must be smaller.
Under Qi Heng's urging, he and the 20,000 wind troops led by Kong Yan did not make any stop in Peicheng. They passed directly through the city and rushed towards Tongchuan with all their might. After an almost crazy rush, they marched directly through the city.
Xia, Qi Heng, and Kong Yan's troops arrived in Tongchuan in only two days.
In order to march quickly, the 20,000-strong army did not bring any baggage. The whole army did not have a single large-scale siege weapon. Even the food and grass they brought were only enough for three days.
After arriving in Tongchuan, Kong Yan planned to let all the soldiers rest for half a day, but Qi Heng immediately ordered the entire army to attack the city.
For the Feng army, they were already exhausted after two days and two nights of rapid march. When they attacked the city, their combat power was reduced sharply. However, in contrast, Tongchuan also neglected to take precautions.
They came so fast that the news of the fall of Peicheng reached Tongchuan within a day, and the Feng army miraculously reached the city.
The defenders of Tongchuan were frightened and ill-prepared, so they hurriedly responded to the battle. When the two sides started fighting, many Mo soldiers hurriedly ran up the city wall to participate in the battle without even wearing their armor.
The combat effectiveness of the Feng Army has weakened, but the combat effectiveness and momentum of the defenders have not become much stronger. Both sides are fighting with declining troops. Relatively speaking, such a battle is more beneficial to the attacking side.
Qi Heng's fighting style was fierce. He issued a death order at the beginning of the battle. All the soldiers in the army could only move forward and not retreat. If anyone flinched, the soldiers behind him could kill them directly. Anyone who was not afraid of killing on the battlefield could
Anyone who escapes before or before the battle can be rewarded according to merit for killing the enemy.
Such an order is equivalent to telling the soldiers of the Feng Army to either advance or be killed. There is no other way.
As the commander-in-chief, Qi Heng was also unequivocal. He took the lead and was at the center of the battle between the two sides.
Under the attack of the Feng Army with no regard for life and death, the unprepared Tongchuan defenders were the first to be unable to withstand it. First, one point was broken, and then the second point, and the third point were successively breached by the Feng Army. The overwhelming Feng Army
Like ants, they continuously swarmed up to the top of the city along the ladders, and started face-to-face hand-to-hand combat with the defenders.
When Qi Heng also rushed to the top of the city, the defenders could no longer resist it. They were defeated like a mountain. A large number of Mo soldiers rolled back and climbed down the city wall. Countless Mo soldiers were also killed by the wind.
The soldiers rushed directly to the city wall and fell to the ground screaming.
As the Feng army entered Tongchuan City, the battle gradually turned into a one-sided massacre. The defenders were defeated and retreated into the city. They had no resistance and no ability to parry. People were being chased by the Feng army in the streets and alleys and fled in panic.
In the Mo army, there were defenders and soldiers who were besieged and died miserably everywhere.
The battle between the 20,000-strong Feng Army led by Qi Heng against Tongchuan can be described as a bloodbath. From the beginning to the end of the battle, the Feng Army did not capture a single prisoner. Regardless of whether the opponent surrendered or resisted, they ran for their lives and killed and killed everyone they encountered.
Fortunately, Qi Heng has not forgotten Guo Jie's reminder to him. The killing was aimed at the defenders and did not affect the innocent people in the city.
As a Mo Ren, Qi Heng's methods towards Mo Jun were crueler and more vicious than Feng Ren, which can't help but make people sigh.
In the Battle of Tongchuan, the defenders of more than 10,000 people were completely wiped out by the Feng Army. Only a few escaped. The Feng Army also suffered casualties, but they were much smaller in comparison. The total number of killed and injured was less than 3,000.
After successfully capturing Tongchuan, Qi Heng sent people to send back the good news, and at the same time led people to loot the granaries in the city, replenishing the soldiers' rations, then rested for a while, and then sent orders, leaving two thousand soldiers to clean the battlefield and take care of the wounded soldiers.
, guarding the city, he led the remaining soldiers to continue southward, intending to take Tongxia directly.
Kong Yan was shocked after hearing his order. He wanted to break through Tongxia? Tongxia was different from Tongchuan. It was a county town in Surabaya. There must be at least 20,000 to 30,000 defenders inside. He could only rely on his own troops at present.
Can the remaining 15,000 men be defeated? I'm afraid they won't be able to reach Tongxia, and they will be intercepted and killed by reinforcements from various places.
Kong Yan dissuaded Qi Heng and asked him not to be dazzled by the victory in the Battle of Tongchuan. Tongxia could never be defeated by his own troops.
But Qi Heng didn't listen to him at all. He tasted the benefits of blitzkrieg and launched a rapid march with lightning speed, launching an siege before the opponent had time to make sufficient preparations. Siege warfare was much easier to fight.
Tongchuan had more than 10,000 defenders, but we only paid 3,000 casualties to capture it. Even if Tongxia had twice as many defenders as Tongchuan, we would only have to pay twice as much to capture it.
.
As long as Tongxia can be captured, then our side will have won most of the entire battle of Surabaya. No other contribution can be greater than this. The position of commander of the direct army is still vacant. Once he can accomplish this miraculous feat, he will be the commander-in-chief.
None other than.
Qi Heng is a brave and resourceful man, but his only shortcoming is that he loves success, always wants to be the best, and outshines everyone else. Now he is guilty of this problem.
He was the commander-in-chief, and he insisted on conquering Tongxia, but Kong Yan could not persuade him. Under the mobilization of Qi Heng, the Feng army of more than 10,000 people left Tongchuan, which they had just captured, and continued southward, going deep into the center of Surabaya.
As Kong Yan expected, the road from Tongchuan to Tongxia was not smooth. Not only were there more and more troops stationed in the villages and towns they passed, but there were also many checkpoints and small camps along the way, which caused a lot of trouble for the Feng army.
, the marching speed was also greatly slowed down.
It stands to reason that the Feng Army has long been exhausted and cannot continue to fight fortitude. However, at this time, Qi Heng's powerful force showed terrifying power. He took the lead in all the battles along the way. When charging, he was at the front.
, he was always the first to break the formation. The Feng army was able to win consecutive battles and was unstoppable. He even defeated the villages, towns and camps where the Mo army was stationed, almost all by Qi Heng's own strength.
When he and Kong Yan led the Feng army out of Tongchuan and rushed south for 200 miles, they encountered a large number of Mo troops gathered.
This group of Mozambican troops numbered 30,000, with the main forces coming from the Mozhi army's three military camps in the east, west, and south, and some from local armies patchworked together.
Thirty thousand Mo troops and more than 10,000 Feng troops started a hand-to-hand battle in the grassland area between Tongchuan and Tongxia.
There was a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, and the Mo army did not pay attention to the more than 10,000 disgraced Feng troops on the opposite side. Soon, both sides blew the horn of attack.
With the sound of beating drums, Qi Heng rushed out of the formation first like a wild horse with a howl. When Kong Yan saw this, he was so powerful that he hurriedly ordered the whole army to advance to meet the general.
Even though Qi Heng was so fast, he was not too slow to retreat, but he was shot back by Mo Jun forcefully.
With 30,000 Mo soldiers, the arrow formation should not be underestimated. Just one round of arrow shooting turned Qi Heng's horse into a hedgehog. Qi Heng himself was also in a very embarrassed state and was hit by several arrows. Fortunately, his cultivation was deep enough. The spiritual armor is strong enough to protect him from harm.
Returning to the main formation, he changed his horse and did not dare to rush forward rashly. He followed the main force of his army and kept the formation forward.
Soon, both sides entered the shooting range. Feng Jun and Mo Jun, who had not yet made direct contact, started a needle-to-head arrow shooting.
Feng Jun is good at archery, but his troops are too few. Archery is not Mo Jun's strength, but they have many troops and both sides have their own strengths. The arrow arrays that come and go inflict huge damage to the other side.
As the casualties on both sides gradually increased, the distance between them became closer and closer. At this time, the Mo army suddenly launched a surprise attack.
I saw that the entire Mo army camp was divided to the left and right, with a large gap in the middle. Then, a cavalry quickly ran out of the Mo army camp and went straight to the Feng army camp.
The cavalry is too lethal to the infantry. The galloping horses alone cannot be resisted by the flesh and blood of the infantry. If the cavalry is allowed to rush in front of the wind army, the formation will be torn apart immediately. When he opened his mouth, Qi Heng raised his head and laughed loudly. He was worried that he would not be able to break through Mo Jun's arrow formation, but he did not expect that Mo Jun took the initiative to come to his door.
He raised the nine-turn soul-breaking knife and urged his horse to meet Mo Cavalry. He raised the knife and dropped it. A cold light flashed through. The cavalry at the front fell off his horse and his body was found in another place. Qi Heng's speed did not slow down and he charged into the cavalry with his knife. , slashing left and right, killing people is like chopping vegetables.
Qi Heng was only one person, but he was like a knife, slashing through the middle of the Mo cavalry team, slashing all the way, and actually went straight into the depths of the entire Mo army camp.
He raised his eyes and looked forward, and saw a general's flag standing not far away. Under the flag were several horsemen, all dressed as generals of the Mo army. Without thinking, he gave a loud shout and charged forward with his horse.
Before anyone arrived, shouts and cheers came first.
"Don't leave, you rat, I'll kill you!"
The spiritual sword in his hand suddenly appeared with thousands of rays of light. The light was so bright that it was like a sun rising in the crowd, piercing people's eyes.
When the light dissipated, the spiritual sword in his hand had grown to nearly three meters in length. The blade of the sword shone with light, reflecting the eerie and biting cold air.
After completing the spiritual transformation, Qi Heng swung his sword in the air with one hand. When the three-meter-long spiritual sword fell, he threw out a huge virtual sword that was three feet long and two meters wide.
This huge virtual sword composed of light and shadow mixed with spiritual energy made a dull whistling sound. Before the sword even hit the ground, it shook the dust on the ground and sent it flying all over the sky.
Under the unparalleled power of the Spirit of Soldiers, several generals under the general's banner fled on horseback. The horses were frightened and raised their hooves and barked wildly, uncontrollably.
A click was heard in the helix of the ear, and Mo Jiang, who was directly in front of the flag, was hit by this virtual knife. He had no resistance. The men and horses were split in half from the center, and the ones on his left and right sides Mo Jiang felt the momentum and flew to the left and right, falling far away.
