The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1152 Battle of Xingyuan Mansion
He Liancheng snorted softly.

Pang Hongguang's stubbornness made him a little annoyed.

If possible, he certainly hoped that Pang Hongguang would give up his resistance.

Because he could see from the bottom of the city that the defenders at the top of the city were well organized, and people like Pang Hongguang were indeed difficult to deal with.

Such an all-round talent, it would be a pity to die.

But He Liancheng also knew that it was impossible for the Empress to have the slightest sympathy for Pang Hongguang.

Talent is rare, but it needs to be a loyal talent.

Seeing that Pang Hongguang had no intention of arresting him without a fight, He Liancheng didn't intend to say any more, he turned his horse and headed towards the army again.

Qu Rujian is in the army.

Soon after, densely packed hot air balloons could be seen inflating on the right wing of the army.

Qu Rujian dispatched Qi Tian's army.

Only the Qi Tian Army can take down this Xingyuan Mansion with the least effort.

Qi Tian's army is nearly [-] people, and the number of hot air balloons is also close to [-].

With so many hot air balloons flying into the sky together, the scene is quite spectacular.As far as the eye can see, the sky is full of violet-colored hot air balloons.

The Empress prefers this color.

But at this time, Pang Hongguang at the top of the city just sneered.

He waved his hand, and there was a general running away beside him.

The big banner shakes.

The defenders of Xingyuan Mansion at the head of the city rushed down the city like a tide.

Before Qi Tian's army reached the sky above the city, thousands of people seemed to disappear out of thin air inside the city.

Qi Tianjun came to the top of the city in such a powerful manner, he was also dumbfounded to see that there were no shadows of Xingyuan Mansion defenders below.

The scene seemed rather awkward.

Then the hot air balloon went back and fell to the ground.

A general ran out of the hanging basket, went to He Liancheng and Qu Rujian and said, "You two generals, the defenders of Xingyuan Mansion are gone."

He Liancheng and Qu Rujian looked at each other.

Then Qu Rujian said: "This Pang Hongguang is indeed difficult to deal with."

Although the two of them did not enter the city, they naturally wondered why the defenders of Xingyuan Mansion suddenly disappeared.

Those defenders must be hidden in the building, or even in the underground secret room.

The two of them drove straight towards the Xingyuan Mansion, and it was no surprise that Pang Hongguang would be prepared.It would be weird if he wasn't prepared.

He Liancheng said: "It seems that he intends to abandon the city wall and start a street fight with us inside the city."

Thunderbolt's power is limited after all, and it is difficult to perform meritorious deeds in the case of concealed objects. This is the biggest drawback.

At this time, Pang Hongguang led his army to dodge, and it would be difficult for Qi Tian's army to stay in the air to play any role.

Qu Rujian sighed softly, "That's all, we are afraid that we will lose some soldiers."

He Liancheng was more open-minded, "What can we do about it? It's impossible for the two armies to fight without death."

"Then what do you mean?"

Qu Rujian asked.

He Liancheng chuckled and said, "We've already arrived here, even if Pang Hongguang sets up the Longmen Formation, we still have to go for it. I'll lead the soldiers into the city first, how about it?"

Qu Rujian nodded, "Then I will let the soldiers fall into the city, and then attack the south wall with you from the inside out."

"it is good!"

Heliancheng agreed.Then drive the horse away.

Qu Rujian ordered to the general of the Qitian Army, "Lead your army down inside the city, then attack the south wall, and join forces with General Helian."

"The last general takes orders!"

The general took the lead, ran back into the hot air balloon, and slowly rose into the sky with the hot air balloon.

Not long after, He Liancheng led nearly [-] forbidden troops to the city of Xingyuan Mansion.

There are not even half of the defenders on the top of the city.

The soldiers built a suspension bridge on the moat, and then they were able to easily cross the moat.

Amidst the rumbling and tremors, the south gate of Xingyuan Mansion was knocked down.

The corridor is also empty.

He Liancheng's expression was a little serious at this moment.Because Pang Hongguang must have made arrangements in the city, they may encounter a surprise attack at any time when they enter the city.

But he still led his army towards the city.

No choice.

At the same time, the Qi Tian Army in the sky also slowly moved towards a little deeper inside the city.

Qu Rujian led nearly [-] imperial troops and stood still outside the city.

"Whizzing!"

ringing.

As soon as He Liancheng led his army through the tunnel, he was immediately ambushed by the defenders.

In the city, Pang Hongguang did more than just dig an underground secret room.No one knows what kind of arrangements he has made in the city.

This guy is impeccable in the details.

These arrow-firing defenders may appear at the window, or appear under a certain roof, and some even drilled out of the ground.

It looks quite like the style of tunnel warfare in the Song Dynasty.

Defending the city always has to take advantage of it.

"shield!"

He Liancheng drank continuously, and waved his gun to push away several arrows.

Only next to him, there was still a soldier who fell to the ground with an arrow.

The shield army who followed him into the city quickly set up their shields and stood in front of the army.

The arrow hit the shield with a thumping sound.

"Enter!"

Heliancheng drank again.

The soldiers who followed him into the city shouted to kill and rushed towards the city behind the shield soldiers.

More and more Xixia Forbidden Army poured into the city from the corridor.

There were archers shooting at those defenders.

There are also more and more defenders emerging from everywhere.There are even some caves not far from the city gate.

Pang Hongguang seemed to have hollowed out the ground around the city gate.

The sky thundered endlessly.

Although there were no grenades in the two armies, the momentum of the fight was not far from that of the imperial army of the Song Dynasty.

The popularity of Thunderbolt has given the armies of various countries already possessed impressive firepower.

The Imperial Army in Helian City will inevitably suffer some losses.

Their soldiers rushed in from the corridor, making it difficult to lay out a firepower front.But the layout of Pang Hongguang in the city is absolutely ingenious.

There are many small cannon-throwing vehicles pouring out from nowhere, appearing everywhere around the city gate.

The gates of the city were covered by artillery fire.

The imperial army that was pouring into the city suffered a lot of losses.

He Liancheng had nothing to do about it.All he could do was to lead the soldiers to continue to charge forward.

Fortunately, the Qitian army in the sky has not yet flown far, at this time they can support the imperial army on the ground with Thunderbolt.

Their Thunderbolt focused on dealing with the defenders' artillery throwing vehicles.

Even so, the effect is not too great.

Pang Hongguang probably had already planned all these things into account, and the arrangement of these cannon-throwing vehicles was rather scattered.

Moreover, when they see a hot air balloon flying towards them, they often disappear immediately.

Of course, the Qitian Army's support still relieved the pressure on the Ground Forces a lot.

More and more forbidden troops were able to pour in from the corridor.

It is difficult to have any rules in such a fight.

Under the leadership of their respective generals, the soldiers rushed towards the defenders.

They didn't come to capture the city as simply as they wanted to wipe out all these defenders.The fight quickly became chaotic.

Soon, soldiers from both sides were fighting everywhere inside the city gate.

Especially archers shoot at each other mostly.

It seemed that the imperial army in Helian City was at an absolute disadvantage.

They seem to be trapped in a maze, and defenders often emerge from unexpected places.As soon as he took the lead, he gave them a heavy blow.

The forbidden army is like headless chickens, rushing to kill wherever they see people.

The price paid for this is of course much higher.

Fortunately, there were no firearms such as the Shenlong Gun in the defenders, otherwise the Xixia Imperial Army would have suffered even more losses.

Fortunately, after a while, Qi Tian's army finally fell in the city.

No one dared to stop the defenders.

He could only watch Qi Tianjun fall to the ground.

Because as long as they show up under the hot air balloon, they will inevitably become the target of thunder bombing.

Pang Hongguang would not do such a stupid thing.

What he wanted to do was to forcefully consume the soldiers of He Liancheng and Qu Rujian with these thousands of soldiers.

And whether he can succeed in the end, it is still unclear now.

All I know is that as the soldiers of the Qitian Army rushed to the street, the situation of the Xixia Forbidden Army gradually improved.

After all, they occupy the superiority in force.

The hideouts of the defenders were gradually breached.

Soldiers on both sides are constantly losing.

Then about half an hour later, Qu Rujian from outside the city also led his soldiers into the city.

The entire southern city of Xingyuan Mansion was almost affected by the fighting.

The entire battlefield can only be described as chaotic.

Thousands of defenders in Xingyuan Mansion hid in hiding, as if they couldn't kill them all.

In the end, the fight did not come to an end until late at night.

Although Pang Hongguang's arrangement was ingenious, he was still unable to turn the tide in the end.

Many secret passages and secret rooms under the ground were breached by the Xixia Forbidden Army.

There are only a few places where there are still defenders stubbornly resisting.

At this time, Pang Hongguang was no longer in Nancheng District.
