Chapter 669 It's yours

The heavy armored Modao Camp in Xiongkuohai advanced with neat steps. After forming a formation, the Modao Camp really looked like a heavy mountain, giving people an unbearable sense of oppression. Zhang Gongjin ordered the archers to shoot arrows, and the feathered arrows were densely packed into the heavy armored Modao Camp like locusts. But no matter how sharp the feathered arrows were, they could not penetrate the thick chain armor.

No matter how hard the arrow cluster is stuck on the chain armor, it will only shoot the leather armor inside through a small hole. Even if it can hurt people, it will not have any effect. The formation of the Modao Camp is still neat, and looking down from above, it looks like a square tofu cut out from a large piece of knife. But it is obvious that they are not tofu, they are a suffocating steel armor. Under the cover of white feathers in the sky, the steel armor still steadily moves forward.

The Tang army's light armored infantry could not stop the Modao Camp's advance. Under the rows of Modao, the Tang army soldiers had no power to fight back. Even if someone could cut the heavy armored soldiers, no matter how sharp the horizontal sword was, it could not cut off the thick and strong armor.

Although the speed of advancement was not fast, there was no pause at all.

Xiong Kuohai walked in the middle of the front row of the team, and the steps of all the Modao hands on his left and right and behind him were consistent with him. He went in and he stopped. This tacit understanding was not only the result of long-term training, but also the cooperation that could only be achieved after dozens of bloody battles.

The knife rises and the knife falls.

The row of Tang soldiers in front was neatly cut over, and the heavy and sharp Modao could easily split the person's body. Every time Modao Camp took a step forward, it would leave behind a broken limb and a broken arm on the ground. When the Modao Camp's formation stepped over as a whole, only a layer of meat paste would be left on the ground.

The Tang army was suppressed and retreated step by step, and was about to reach the Xuanwu Gate's city gate.

At this time, a large group of Yanyun Army troops outside the city had already rushed up, and a huge tower car that was slightly higher than the city wall slowly moved over. The Yanyun Army archers on the tower car began to cover the attack on the defenders on the city wall. Li Xian drew 10,000 archers from each battalion and 10,000 archers from the navy. Relying on the stone-throwing cart to smash all the crossbows on the city wall into pieces. The arrow formation of the 20,000 people moved outside the city wall and began to show their power.

The array of arrows of 20,000 people cannot understand the trembling scene without seeing them with your own eyes.

White feathers cover the sky, covering the sun.

Feather arrows even collided in mid-air!

Dozens of chariots and arrow formations outside the city wall poured into the city wall in a short time - more than 100,000 feather arrows were gone, and the corpses and wooden buildings on the city wall were covered with white!

If the stone-dumping cart had not shown its power to clear the crossbow on the city wall and the archers of the Tang Army City Defense Forces were not smashed into pieces, the archers of the Yanyun Army would be difficult to suppress such a scale. After all, the archers guarding the city had an absolute advantage, and at least the range would be farther than the Yanyun Army under the city.

After three rounds of volleys, the Tang army on the city wall was no longer able to counterattack. The infantry of the brigade raised the ladder and laid it on the city wall. The huge chariot continued to move forward and finally leaned on the city wall, laying wooden boards, and the Yanyun army infantry on the chariot rushed to the top of the city like a tide. The Yanyun army on the city wall began to clean up the remaining Tang army soldiers, and the surrendered ones would not be killed.

Near the city gate, dozens of Tang soldiers guarded a Tang general with gauze wrapped on his forehead.

"General, take the city down. If you don't leave, it will be too late!"

A Tang soldier exhorted hurriedly.

Liu Hongji's face was so burned with fire that it looked particularly ugly. The gauze on his forehead was still oozing out blood, but there was no trace of despair in his eyes.

He felt guilty, but more of it was relieved.

The reason why Yan Yun's army attacked the city wall so quickly was not only because of the huge power of the stone-throwing cart and the coverage of the arrow formation, but also his military order. Just as Luo Shixin entered the city gate, he ordered the defenders on the city wall to retreat. Except for places where the military order could not be conveyed, thousands of Tang troops had retreated to the city.

From the beginning, he did not make up his mind to fight the enemy with all his might.

He didn't know whether he was right or wrong in doing this, but he did not regret it. He did this just to save more lives, and he had no fighting spirit for this war from the beginning. Even if the King of Yan was not the emperor's legitimate son, it was also a battle between the Li family. Chang'an City could not be defended, and even if there was no secret spies in Yanyun's army in the city exploded and the city gate could not be defended. The King of Yan came prepared. If he had not felt sorry for the soldiers, how could he have waited so long before he started attacking the city?

With so many sharp siege equipment, no matter how much losses are, it is already destined to conquer Chang'an. It is precisely because he saw through this that he is so negative.

It is not worth it for the soldiers to die for a meaningless war.

His guilt is to the emperor, and to his own minister but not wanting to be loyal. In fact, people often think that they are ashamed of something and that they are just ashamed of their own hearts. No one can understand Liu Hongji's current pain except himself.

"Help me up."

Liu Hongji said in a plain tone: "I want to go home."

...

...

Every time the heavy armored Modao Camp in Xiongkuohai takes a step forward, a layer of blood mud will appear on the ground. The blade cuts off the bones and splits a person into two pieces. If you really hear it clearly, no one will be as calm as usual. It is a sound that can make people get goosebumps in an instant.

The shouts, howlings, and the sound of bones breaking are all the sounds of death. What is most unbearable is not the sound of death, but the smell of death.

The air is filled with not only the smell of blood, but also a stench that cannot be dissipated for a long time after entering a person's nose. People will basically have incontinence before they die. At the moment when Mo Dao is on his face, shit and urine will often overflow from their crotch.

The smell of blood and the smell of feces are mixed together, and this smell is unforgettable for a lifetime.

The battle boots walked forward on the ground, and when they stepped over, they were not only dead bodies, but also feces. So when the water was in the Yuchi Gong boots beside Li Shimin, he would feel disgusted and want to vomit. The water was not disgusting, but the disgusting thing was the wetness and greasiness of flesh and feces mixed together. Yuchi Gong couldn't help but think of the feeling on the battlefield because of the water in the boots... As long as people who survived on the battlefield would not easily forget it.

The boots stepped on the ground, stepping on the neat rhythm.

The Tang army retreated step by step and was about to retreat in front of Xuanwu Gate. At this time, the Yanyun army had already captured the entire Xi Neiyuan. More than 10,000 Tang soldiers ambushed in Yong'an Palace in the northeast of Xi Neiyuan were also suppressed by Wu Tianxi and could not escape. After the Xi Neiyuan conquered, Li Xian transferred another 5,000 archers to the Yong'an Palace to support him. Under the suppression of the arrow formation, the Tang army generals in Yong'an Palace had to raise their flags and surrender.

In just half a day, Xi Neiyuan was broken.

This speed is shocking. You must know that when Li Yuan attacked Chang'an City, the Sui army did not let him in so easily. Li Yuan walked into the city with tens of thousands of corpses.

Now there is only a Xuanwu Gate that is blocking Li Xian.

There is a Tai Chi Palace behind Xuanwu Gate.

There is a dragon throne in Tai Chi Palace.

An emperor sat on the dragon throne.

"His Majesty……."

Gao Liansheng carefully glanced at the emperor with a surprisingly calm expression, hesitated for a moment and persuaded him: "If anyone was not allowed to enter the Tai Chi Palace, Zhang Gongjin and Liu Hongji would not be able to enter. If the city was broken... they could not enter the palace again, and they would inevitably do something that would be rude. Moreover... If the people in Xi Neiyuan in front retreated into the Tai Chi Palace and then used to defend the palace city, their troops would not appear weak."

"The Tai Chi Palace City is strong in defense. If there are enough defenders, if they insist on reaching reinforcements from other gates, the bandits may not be able to take advantage of them."

Li Yuan glanced at Gao Liansheng, his face calm as if it was as unwavering as the ancient well. Gao Liansheng still couldn't understand why His Majesty the Emperor was so easy to lose his temper in the past, but now at this time, he can calm down as if nothing had happened.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has never sat on the dragon throne except for the court meeting. Today, he left the imperial study room and entered the hall. He sat on the tall dragon throne and looked at the empty hall for a long time.

"Gao Liansheng"

"I'm here"

"If you were not a castrator, I would definitely use you."

"I just want to be able to serve your Majesty."

"Gao Liansheng"

"I'm here"

"Do you know where I lost?"

"Your Majesty did not lose. As long as the two Dukes summoned the entire city's military and civilians, the Yanyun bandits may not succeed."

"I lose, if I lose, I lose."

Li Yuan's palm gently stroked the armrest of the dragon chair, feeling the temperature of the tentacles. The force on his palm was so gentle, as if he was not stroking the cold and hard chair, but the beautiful woman's delicate cheeks.

"My loss is... I never dare to face the facts, and when I have to face them, I often become hesitant. I want to be a saint of eternal age and create a foundation for eternity... But now it seems that I am afraid that this ideal will be left to my descendants. The result is not the worst... At least he is also my seed."

Li Yuan smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I always think that everyone is in my plan. No one wants to hide it from me, and no one wants to let me admit defeat! Perhaps I have been thinking too much in my heart, so I have lost my determination. Instead, it is not as simple and direct as Li Xian thought. He wanted to replace me as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty from the beginning, but I have never thought about how to treat him."

"If Yan Yunjun enters Tai Chi Palace... Gao Liansheng, you go out to welcome Li Xian, I don't blame you..."

"I don't know, I firmly believe that Your Majesty is invincible."

"Invincible?"

Li Yuan smiled and waved his hand and said, "Now I don't have the heart to listen to you tell jokes... You go and pass on my will. All the concubines, servants, and guards in the harem lined up to greet him at the entrance of the hall after the King of Yan attacked the Tai Chi Palace. I want to see what kind of face he appears in front of me as a winner."

"His Majesty……"

Gao Liansheng whined and slowly knelt down.

"Why are you crying? The Tang Dynasty is still the Tang Dynasty, there is nothing to cry."

Li Yuan stood up slowly and left the warm dragon chaise he was sitting on. He walked slowly down the steps and looked carefully at every pillar and every tiles in the hall. He looked very seriously, as if he wanted to remember the appearance of every place. Although his pace was slow, it was not stable. Every time he took a step, his body trembled violently.

"I am the emperor!"

Li Yuan, who walked to the door, looked up at the endless sky and murmured: "What if you win? In history books, I am still the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

At the gate of Xineiyuan, the elite warriors stood on both sides of the street to welcome the King of Yan into the city. The surrendered Tang soldiers knelt behind them in a dense manner. They had no weapons in their hands. They lowered their once high heads. Everyone was filled with uneasiness when the Tang soldiers crawled on the ground.

Li Xian, who was riding a big black horse wearing black armor, walked into Chang'an City slowly glanced over the Tang army surrendered soldiers kneeling on the ground. Looking at the palace gate not far away, his gaze was as calm as water, and his face did not change at all.

From beginning to end, he knew that he was going to enter this big city.

"King of Hedong"

Li Xian turned his head and looked at Li Chengde who was walking side by side with him, and said with a smile: "You have to take a closer look, this is your capital."

“It’s yours.”

Li Chengde lowered his head and said humbly: "It's always yours."
