The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 601 The Battle of Eternal Harmony ([-])

In the Battle of Zhongzhou, the Xixia Army did not break through the tiles in the city, and lost more than [-] soldiers.Right now, troops have been dispatched from Zhuoluo and the Southern Army Division in the territory, and the defenders in the city are nearly [-].

For Xixia, this is naturally a big battle that must not be taken lightly.

Xixia Heishui Town Yan, Heishan Weifu, Xiping, Gansu, Baimaqiang Town, Zhuoluo, and the South Six Army Commanders, plus the Xiangqing Army sitting on the side of Zhongxing Mansion.The party, the Han and other nationalities are intertwined and mixed, and the forces in the army and the court can be said to be constantly cutting and chaotic, with a total military strength of less than 20.In the Zhongzhou battle, Xixia had already suffered a little injury, and if they lost again, the reputation, military strength, financial resources, and people's hearts that Zhongsun Qifu and others had accumulated for decades would be greatly affected.

At that time, Li Wangyuan, the prince who strongly advocated Kuizhou, was afraid that he would be opposed by the people and gentry in the territory.

The Lintao, Fengxiang, and Lizhou east and west roads that have just been attached are even more unpredictable.Yuan Jiang, who was originally in charge of several roads, may not be willing to be tied to Xixia's boat and capsize.

Therefore, although the Xixia generals and officials who had some confidence in defeating the White Horse Army after having hot air balloons and thunderbolts looked relaxed, they were actually very dignified in their hearts.

Victory, Guotai Minan.Defeated, internal and external troubles.

After He Liancheng and others left Li Wangyuan's side, they scattered around the city to boost morale.

At night, nearly [-] hot air balloons with flames rose into the sky outside the South City Gate.

The horn of the city head sounded.

Li Wangyuan stands on the top of the city and does not move.

There were no more than a few hundred guards on the top of the city, watching the hot air balloon approaching slowly, feeling terrified in my heart.

Suddenly, Li Wangyuan turned his head and asked Zhongsun Qifu next to him, "Teacher, how is the layout outside the city?"

Zhongsun Qifu said: "The Qitian army is already in place. Just wait for the cannon to fire, and it will surely kill the White Horse Army by surprise."

Li Wangyuan looked up at the sky and said nothing.

Five hundred hot air balloons approached the city.

In front of the formation of the White Horse Army outside the city, hundreds of men in black robes came out, walking fast, with thunder hanging from their waists, carrying a ladder and rushing towards the city gate.

The aging Xixia emperor smiled lightly and said: "After these white horse troops won the victory in Zhongzhou, they really didn't take our Xixia army soldiers seriously."

Li Wangyuan lightly held the two knives hanging at his waist with both hands, and hummed coldly in a low voice: "Of course they will suffer."

With his eyesight, he can see it.These hundreds of men in black robes rushing in the night are all masters of the White Horse Army.

This is a sharp knife to blast the city gate.

If it was before, hundreds of military masters would be enough.But now, it would be wishful thinking to get close to the city gate.

Next to him, a general of the Dangxiang clan cupped his hands at Li Wangyuan, "His Royal Highness, are you ready to meet the enemy?"

Li Wangyuan looked at Zhongsun Qifu, and the old master lightly stroked the gray beard hanging down to his chest, and nodded slightly.

The general of the Dangxiang clan shouted loudly: "Get ready to meet the enemy!"

Li Wangyuan took Zhongsun Qifu down the wall, looked up at the sky, "Tuoba Sen may never be able to go down the wall again?"

Zhongsun Qifu said: "The city gate must be broken. Tuoba Sen died for the country is more useful than alive."

His surname is Tuoba, and he is a top rich and noble family in Xixia.It can be called the most deeply rooted ancient family in Xixia except for the Xixia royal family.

Tuoba Sen was born as a member of the offshoot of the Tuoba family, he was a member of the Xiangqing Army, and he was the commander of a thousand commanders.Originally, he might not be used for defending the city, but Zhongsun Qifu recommended him to Li Wangyuan, obviously he was a bit hesitant.

Li Wangyuan didn't ask much, nodded, and walked deep into the city.

For a mere Tuoba Sen, his death would not make the Tuoba family feel dissatisfied.Naturally, Li Wangyuan wouldn't care too much.

Five hundred hot air balloons arrived at the top of the city, carrying the domineering arrogance of the Zhongzhou victory, and threw thunder as soon as they arrived at the top of the city.

Rocks are flying.

Suddenly the city was filled with gunpowder smoke.

In the smoke, hundreds of Xiangqing soldiers fled in panic.

Someone wanted to go down to the city, but was blocked by the supervising army under the stairs without hesitation, drawing his sword and beheading him on the spot.

Tuoba Sen's eyes flickered fiercely, thinking that this was an opportunity to commit crimes.Jumping quickly on the top of the city, his eyes are always fixed on the hundreds of men in black robes below the city.

Although he is a member of the Tuoba family, but he has fallen into the Xiangqing army, obviously he has no status in the Tuoba family.Those in the Tuoba family who have great influence on Xixia may not even know that there is him.If he wants to climb up, he can only rely on his own hands to accumulate military achievements.

Not every aristocratic son of a wealthy family can easily ascend to a high position that others can't match.

The Tuoba family has been branching out for hundreds of years, and the strength of the family is focused on those children with good roots or extremely talented children. How can it be Tuoba Sen's turn?
After a few minutes of bombardment by the hot air balloon overhead, more than half of the defenders on the top of the city were killed or injured.

But the Thunderbolt continued to fall.

In the city, there are several Xixia generals leading several troops to the city, but the total number is probably no more than a thousand.

Hundreds of men in black robes outside the city finally approached the city.

Tuoba Sen, who was in his prime, stared wide-eyed and shouted hoarsely, "Fire the arrow!"

But on the top of the city, there are only dozens of scattered arrows shooting down.

Now the soldiers can't take care of themselves, but how can they care about shooting arrows?

Tuoba Sen was able to become a commander by virtue of his skills, so naturally he also had some skills.The longbow in his hand was drawn twice to approach the arc of the full moon, and the two men in black robes under the city fell down in response.

But more people in black robes were still able to rush towards the moat, and the ladders were stretched across the river, and the people in black robes were all walking on the ladders.

This light work alone is enough to show that they are not simple.

Tuoba Sen shot a few more people to death, looking around the inner city below the city.

The thousand or so soldiers who were about to climb to the top of the city retreated because of the power of the thunder, not daring to try to climb to the top of the city by force.

Tuoba Sen was furious, but then, he understood something.

There is thunder in the army, he knows it.But the prince and Mr. Zhongsun asked him to guard the city gate, but they didn't send him Thunderbolt. Why?
A pensive look flashed in his eyes, perhaps the prince and Mr. Zhongsun never thought about guarding the city gate at all!
Please enter the urn?

Then he, Tuoba Sen, is he an abandoned son?

At this moment, he suddenly realized in his heart that he naturally had hatred.But then I thought again, this may not be an opportunity.

If he can go down to the top of the city alive, the contribution of this battle will not be underestimated.

Thinking of this, Tuoba Sen rubbed his arm that was slightly sore and numb from drawing the bow several times in a row, and stopped shooting arrows down the city.Just concentrate on avoiding the thunder from above.

The faster the city gate was broken, the sooner he could leave the city that was riddled with holes.

And the man in black robe under the city really did not disappoint him.

After passing through the moat, hundreds of people rushed outside the city gate with scattered arrows.

A bang.

The city gate collapsed without accident.

Hundreds of men in black robes didn't hesitate, and didn't enter the city, they turned around and ran towards the other side of the moat.

The battle drums in the White Horse Army were like thunder, resounding continuously.

More than ten thousand infantry shouted to kill Zhentian, and they all attacked the city gate.

Tuoba Sen immediately shouted: "Abandon the city."

Then he took the lead in jumping down towards the top of the city.

Five hundred hot air balloons in the night sky overhead mightily float towards the city.

At this time, Li Wangyuan, Zhongsun Qifu and others did not enter the city too deeply.Just outside the teahouse on the side of the main street, look up at the top of the city.

A scout came to report: "Prince, the enemy army has broken through the city. The army is attacking the city."

Li Wangyuan nodded, "Well, let the defenders fight and retreat."

The scout left again.

Zhongsun Qifu raised his head suddenly.

Countless people came out of the shadows like phantoms.

Zhongsun Qifu said: "Notify the army and horses outside the city to prepare for the fight. In addition, Tuobasen cannot stay."

No one answered, just a few people shrouded in black robes quietly hid in the darkness.

The White Horse Army broke through the city like a bamboo.

More than ten thousand infantry set up countless ladders and pontoon bridges on the moat, and rushed into the city gate like walking on the ground.

In the city, the Xixia army shot and killed hundreds of people in front with an arrow array, and then they were rushed to the front by the elite infantry of the White Horse Army.The battle was chaotic, and the two armies fought endlessly.

Shouting and killing.

Countless people were bleeding at the gate of the city.

Tuoba Sen took the remaining one hundred people under his command to the top of the city, waited and watched not far away, and did not step forward to join the battle.

outside the city.

Shen Yongyi sat on the horse in a silver armor and white robe, with a small smile on his lips, "The Xixia army is still so vulnerable."

Waved again.

The drum beats again.

This time, not only more than ten thousand people entered the city, but all the remaining soldiers rushed into the city.

The bursts of cannon fire in the city made Shen Yongyi feel that taking down Yongmu City was already an easy task.

Although the Xixia army is not weak in combat, what can they do to resist Hong Tianlei?

Just relying on those bows, arrows, ballistas, and knife carts that were gradually neglected in the White Horse Army after Hong Tianlei was born?
In front of Hong Tianlei, these things are nothing more than chickens and dogs.
