At dawn, Ma Kui, the guard at Huaishan Gate, stretched hard, then looked to the west with a smile on his face, thinking in his mind, wondering when he would be able to send out troops, galloping across the battlefield like Marshal Sima Zhen, killing people.
The country of Qixia is full of falling flowers and flowing water.
As early as when the Kingdom of Jinyang attacked Xinglin Hall, Ma Kui had been ordered to guard Huaishan Pass. Huaishan Pass was not a big pass, but it was the most important pass between the Kingdom of Jinyang and Xingchang County.
During the sneak attack on Xinglin Hall, Ma Kui received an order personally issued by His Majesty: Once the sneak attack is successful, troops will be sent immediately to open the gate of Qixia Kingdom from Xingchang County.
However, the plan failed. Since then, Ma Kui has been waiting here. The army here has also been mobilized little by little, and now it is less than 100,000.
What happened after that became even more exciting. Sima Zhen shot and killed the emperor of Qixia Kingdom, opened the gate of Qixia Kingdom in one fell swoop, marched straight in, and completely occupied Jianwu County of Qixia Kingdom.
Then, Sima Zhen turned around and headed south, preparing to attack Xingchang County and Xinglintang. At this time, Ma Kui received an order again, this time from Sima Zhen - to prepare for a flanking attack on Xingchang County, and this time he must completely capture Xinglintang.
As a result... just when Ma Kui was about to send troops, he received the bad news: Sima Zhen was defeated! And a new 'war weapon' appeared in the Kingdom of Qixia - yes, that's how Sima Zhen described it at the time
Artillery.
Ma Kui was also a little frightened because the sound of artillery explosions, especially the explosions after the later salvos, could be heard here.
So after receiving the news from Sima Zhen, Ma Kui was even a little frightened. What kind of weapon could be so powerful and could defeat Sima Zhen.
Then things changed again. Sima Zhen unexpectedly attacked the second line of defense of Qixia Kingdom. Just before dawn today, he received new news: Jiuyang Sect also defected to Jinyang Kingdom!
Ma Kui felt a little erratic for a moment - was he going to attack Xingchang County again soon?
So today, Ma Kui had a sudden impulse and felt an indescribable excitement in his heart. He had a vague feeling that he was about to shine, gallop on the battlefield, and finally join forces with Sima Zhen in the Imperial Capital of the Kingdom of Qixia!
Just thinking about it makes the earth tremble?
Hmm? The earth trembles?
The next moment, a violent explosion sounded, and eight balls of flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the camp in an instant. The sound of the explosion echoed between the sky and the earth, making a rumbling tail sound, like rolling thunder from the sky.
The nearest flame to Ma Kui was less than 200 meters away. Part of the shock wave and a few excited soil debris came to Ma Kui. Although there were not many examples, it still made Ma Kui feel painful.
Ma Kui was stunned by the sudden explosion. Anyone who saw a shell exploding so close would be stunned, let alone being completely unprepared to encounter such a violent explosion for the first time.
The rolling flames quickly dimmed, but Ma Kui's heart trembled. Could this be... the strange war weapon that the Marshal mentioned?
So……
Enemy attack!
Ma Kui's brain finally returned to normal, and he yelled for the soldiers to prepare for battle.
However, at this moment, eight more artillery shells fell, but they changed places. High in the sky, senior brother Feng Zhiling whistled excitedly, pointing out the artillery attacks on the ground.
"Haha! Let's go!" General Zhao Donghe fired up the artillery even more excitedly. This general from Zhenxi, the country of Canglan, was having a great time at this time, or he had never been so happy.
The power of the artillery made him a little excited with excitement. It was so enjoyable and exciting. This artillery was more enjoyable than any previous war weapon, even more than the first war weapon in the Canglan Kingdom: Qingtian Pavilion!
Feng Zhiling is also very excited in the sky. He has found a new pleasure. Although I don't fire cannons, I am now commanding eight artillery pieces to attack. It's so refreshing!
Every time the artillery exploded, Feng Zhiling could use the short-term light to find the enemy's dense area, especially the general's mansion.
Feng Zhiling was very talented in distance and direction, and he was able to skillfully direct artillery attacks. The artillery fire continued to spread, and finally three artillery shells spanned 13 kilometers and accurately landed on the general's mansion.
Although General Ma Kui is now behind the city wall, the General's Mansion is a symbol of a military zone and a legion. The General's Mansion was razed to the ground in the explosion, and an unknown number of soldiers died tragically on the spot without preparation. This is very important to the period.
The impact is immeasurable.
Such attacks were carried out three times in succession, and a total of nine shells fell on the General's Mansion and its surroundings. After the nine shells, nothing was left at the General's Mansion, only a piece of debris, turbid smoke, and scattered spiritual flames.
Oh, and there were screams.
Ma Kui, the guard general of the Kingdom of Jinyang, screamed and wanted to rectify the army, but it was not easy. Feng Zhiling kept commanding from the sky. Whenever he saw a gathering, three or five cannonballs were fired. The soldiers were so scared that they did not dare to go.
Taken together, Ma Kui's expression is wonderful!
With some preparation, Ma Kui may have opportunities and ways to reduce the impact of artillery shells. However, this time it was too sudden. Faced with artillery shells falling from the sky and an attack from several kilometers away, the Army of Jinyang Country
Everyone was panicking up and down.
Ma Kui thought of war, but what he thought of was active attack. He did not expect that the weak Qixia Kingdom would actually have the courage to attack actively. Moreover, this active attack was still so violent.
Screams, explosions, flames, shock waves, and tragic death scenes all aroused fear in the army. And the sound of explosions even suppressed Ma Kui's voice.
As soon as the artillery appeared, it brought a huge surprise to the world. But for Zhang Hao and others, it was 'joy', while for Ma Kui and others, it was 'surprise'.
Under dawn, the white fish belly in the east became brighter and brighter, but the sky and the earth were still dim. On the dim land, the rolling flames of the artillery looked particularly ferocious.
The darkness before dawn is the color of hell.
Almost three hundred artillery shells were poured out in one breath, and a layer of gunpowder smoke, dust, and pungent smell shrouded the entire Huaishan Pass, constantly stimulating the senses of the Jinyang Kingdom army.
Some people in the Nascent Soul stage want to take action, but they have no time, because the Nascent Soul stage in Qixia Kingdom has already pressed forward.
The war broke out in an instant.
Zhang Hao suddenly said: "Three second-generation artillery pieces, change the target, shoot flatly, city wall!"
"Okay!" Everyone excitedly adjusted the muzzle. The second-generation artillery exit speed is faster and the attack power on the city wall is more fierce. Just the first explosion caused the defensive barrier on the city wall to tremble violently. The panicked people above
The soldier's footing was unstable.
After three attacks, the perfectly arranged city wall of Jinyang Kingdom collapsed, and a gap of more than fifty meters appeared.
Dugu Junjie suddenly ordered: "No. 1 to 5 artillery cover, the vanguard troops charge!"
Five first-generation artillery pieces attacked behind the gap in the city wall, while the army, under the cover of the artillery, poured into the city wall like a tide.
The first wave of incoming troops were more than 70,000 prisoners affected by the ghost poppy grass. Their eyes were red, and under the leadership of a few masters, they tore apart all the animals they saw like crazy demons - never mind whether
Human or horse, dog or cat.
Ma Kui wanted to command the war several times, but he and Guan Zhengqing were helplessly targeted and entangled.
The army of Jinyang Kingdom was leaderless and panicked.
Youdao is afraid of those who are stunned, and those who are stunned are afraid of losing their lives. The captives affected by the ghost poppy grass are those who are desperate and have the aura of madness.
About half an hour later, Dugu Junjie gave the order again, and the regular troops began to enter the city wall.
When the regular army's battle formation began to crush, the defeat on the side of Jinyang Kingdom turned into a rout, and the soldiers lost their fighting spirit. They screamed, went crazy, dropped everything they could, and headed towards the rear.
Fleeed for his life.
However, Dugu Junjie did not relax at all, and still commanded the army to divide, surround, annihilate and capture prisoners in an orderly manner!
The melee continued until sunrise, which was already an hour and a half later.
Dugu Junjie scanned the battlefield and immediately ordered: "The army is not allowed to rest and continues to move north to seize the Yunhai Pass in the north. This is the retreat of Sima Zhen and his army!"
(Today I would like to discuss something with you: Why do you always think that the heroine and the hero must be a couple? In fact, you should have seen that the heroine of this book is the princess Liu Xinyu; but the ideal partner of the hero is,
But it was Zhou Xueyao.
Therefore, in this book, Liu Xinyu has the role of the heroine, but does not have the affection for the heroine. And Zhou Xueyao has the affection for the heroine, but rarely has the role of the heroine.
