The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 859
Just for a moment, outside the pitch-black Changlin County, the sound of artillery suddenly exploded.

240 grenadiers fired in unison.

This scene is really earth-shattering.

The flames suddenly appeared on the top of the city.

The screams came one after another.

The entire city was completely covered by artillery fire.

This surprise attack after a feigned withdrawal will undoubtedly become a classic tactic in the battle.

The Yuan army on the top of the city was directly bombarded.

I don't know how many soldiers of the Yuan army who were drowsy were buried under artillery fire before they had time to recover.

There was a sensation in the city.

The general of the Yuan army commanding this army was awakened in his sleep, and before he had time to put on his clothes, he shouted to the door: "What happened? Why are there such dense cannons?"

The guard outside the gate couldn't give him a definite answer, so he only said: "Master, Commander, it seems that the cannon fire came from the East City Gate."

There was the rustling sound of getting dressed in the house.

The horn sounded at the East City Gate.

An unknown number of soldiers in the barracks hurried out of the room.

Some generals shouted: "Assemble! Assemble!"

However, the Yuan army at the other city walls did not dare to approach even though they saw the bursts of fire at the east city wall.

Under the cover of such artillery fire, whoever will die will really die.

This is simply not something human can resist.

Many even shot directly into the city, blowing up the houses in the city to pieces.

Then, in such a panic-stricken situation for the Yuan army, many flames appeared outside the city.

These flames fell into the eyes of the Yuan soldiers, and they were as terrifying as the green eyes of wolves.

It is a hot air balloon in the Song Army.

In the light of the fire, you can also see Song Jun wearing black armor standing, looming.

In the shadows, no one can judge how many people the Song Army has.

The Yuan army on the city wall didn't know how to deal with it at all.

After the commander in the city hurried out of the room, he galloped to the barracks, but the soldiers who were originally sleeping could not gather so quickly.

The coach can only keep urging.

It was too late after all.

Song Jun's hot air balloon quickly reached the sky above the city.

Their goal is very clear, that is, the place where there is fire in the city.

Because there are no civilians in Changlin County at this time, the place with dense fire must be the Yuan army barracks.

Dense flames appeared above the military camps in the city.

Then, countless thunderbolts fell to the ground.

There are also clusters of flames on the ground.

The Great Song Army has a total of 440 hot air balloons. Even if only [-] thunderbolts are placed in each basket, this is still a jaw-dropping number.

And since they entered the city, they naturally had no plans to bring Hong Tianlei back.

Yuan Jiang, who hadn't had time to run out of the barracks, was blown up to the point of crying.

Countless people ran out of the barracks in panic, exhausted.

No matter how much the generals shouted, they could no longer control the situation.

Outside the city, Su Quandang and others smiled when they saw the flames reaching the depths of the city and the sound of cannons coming from the city.

Another round of grenadier shells poured on the city.

This almost leveled Dongchengtou in Changlin County.

Only then did Su Quandang give the order to tell the grenadiers to stop shooting and put away the grenadiers.

Undoubtedly, the Flying Army is his real killing move.

This grenadier battalion was just to paralyze the Yuan army, making the Yuan army think that they were going to forcibly break through the city.

While the hot air balloons were still bombing the city, Su Quandang led the grenadiers and special soldiers to leave Changlin first, and headed for Gongji Ridge.

Only this time, the army lit a torch, and it was no longer in the dark like before.

The Yuan army in the city was too busy to take care of themselves, and there was no way to go out of the city to pursue them.

What's more terrible is that they also have many thunderbolts piled up in the barracks.

When the arsenal was blown up, the monstrous flames seemed to engulf the entire Changlin County.

That night, the Yuan army did not know how many people it lost.

The barracks were devastated.

After the flying soldiers in the air threw all the Thunderbolts to the ground, they flew directly outside the city without much hesitation.

Not long after, they overtook the soldiers on the ground.

At this time, there were also many flames in the sky above Changlin County.

These blazes chased towards the west in desperation.

The flying soldiers were quite surprised when they found the flames behind them.

Did the Yuan Dynasty even have hot air balloons?

This is undoubtedly extremely important information.

A hot air balloon rushed towards the ground and landed in front of Su Quandang's army.

Before landing smoothly, a soldier jumped out of the hanging basket, ran to Su Quandang in a hurry, and said, "Marshal, there is a Yuan army hot air balloon chasing after him!"

Su Quandang just nodded slightly, "Stop them! Fight and retreat!"

Naturally, he saw those hot air balloons behind him on the official road.

In such a night, the fire of the hot air balloon is really conspicuous.

"Yes!"

The soldiers ran back into the basket again.

Su Quandang ordered loudly: "All soldiers, speed up!"

They headed for Rooster Ridge at a faster speed.

After the hot air balloon took off, the hot air balloon of the Great Song Army slowly stopped in the air.

When the Yuan Army's hot air balloon got closer, rockets pierced the sky.

The only unexpected thing is that Yuan Jun's hot air balloon dared not get too close.Seeing Song Jun shooting arrows, he flew back towards Changlin County very quickly.

The number of hot air balloons they rushed into the sky was not as many as that of the Song army, and they were blown up so bleakly just now, but they didn't have the courage to desperately at this moment.

The laughter of the soldiers of the Song Army resounded in the night sky.

Then, they caught up with the ground troops ahead.

Cross the Rooster Ridge and go south.

On the way, the Song army ambushing along the way appeared one after another, joining Su Quandang's army.

The army is getting bigger and bigger.

All night, I have been marching, and I have never slept.

But every soldier in the army looked excited.

Some people spat and talked about the scene of bombarding Changlin at that time, and told those soldiers who hadn't been able to see it with their own eyes.

It made those soldiers envious.

It's a pity that they are not from the Special Regiment, nor from the Grenadier Battalion and the Feitian Regiment.

The soldiers in these three special armies are all the elite of their Forbidden Army.All of them are top picks from the Forbidden Army.

And the soldiers of the garrison military area are full of envy and longing for the imperial army.

Although the soldiers of the garrison are known as the Reserve Forbidden Army, there is undoubtedly a big difference between the Reserve Forbidden Army and the real Forbidden Army.

Bombarding the city with more than two hundred grenades, it was a scene that they had never dared to imagine before.

There are no more than a dozen grenade launchers in each of the garrison military regions, and each of them looks like a big treasure. Usually, these soldiers can't even touch them.

When the sky was clear, Su Quandang and other talents finally rushed to Wen Qi's camp site.

The army is all gathered here.

After learning that Su Quandang and others succeeded in their surprise attack, Wen Qi and others were also very happy.Immediately released flying pigeons to spread the good news to Changsha.

Then the army just rested for a while, and continued to go south happily.

In this battle, although the Song army lost Changlin, it wiped out an unknown number of Yuan troops without losing a single soldier, and blew up an unknown number of Yuan troops' weapons, food and grass, which was a great victory.

Looking at the many previous battles in the Song Dynasty, there has never been such a big victory.

Changsha City.

Zhao Dongting received a good news from Liu Hongyi's army in Hengshan village near noon.

It can't be said to be an authentic victory report, because although the battle was a success, Liu Hongyi still reviewed his negligence in his heart.

He led the army to camp and did not fortify the Dali army. This is an oversight that cannot be ignored.

If it wasn't for the Song army's lack of defense, with the fighting power of the Dali army, it would be impossible for them to pay so much damage.

But after Zhao Dongting read the news, he was still very happy.

Holding the good news in his hand, he laughed a few times, then tilted his head and kissed Le Chan's cheek beside him.

This made Le Chan blush.

Eunuch Liu pretended not to see it, and quietly looked out the window.

Zhao Dongting handed the victory report to Le Chan, saying: "Although Liu Hongyi made mistakes in this battle, it is enough to show that the fighting strength of the Dali Army is no more than this."

Although Da Song's situation was critical at this time, Liu Hongyi's victory gave him great hope.

The garrison army of Jingjiang Mansion and Qiongzhou Army did not disappoint him.

He firmly believes that the line of elite soldiers he is taking is correct.

Then, Zhao Dongting announced to Lu Xiufu and others, and told them the good news.

This naturally made everyone in Changsha City overjoyed.

The great victory in Qinzhou, and now Hengshanzhai's defeat of the enemy.The situation is developing in a better direction than they expected.
