Reborn Tang Emperor Li Chengqian

Chapter 191

"Woo~woo~" The melodious sound of the horn was transmitted in the army, which represented the sound of the offensive note, which was located in the first echelon at the forefront.

After getting the signal to attack, he immediately charged towards Wantong City in front of him.

"Archer ready!"

All the archers stepped forward immediately, stretched their bows and set arrows, and drew the bows into a full moon. They only waited for an order, and then shot the sharp arrows in their hands at the enemy.

"The enemy army has advanced to three hundred steps." Cheng Wu said.

Li Chengqian still stood on the top of the city, motionless, this time he planned to use fire to scare Xue Yantuo's army back.

If you want to attack with fire, the direction of the wind is very important.

"The enemy has advanced to 250 steps!" Cheng Wuting shouted again.

"Wait until the enemy army gets closer! Bring up the gifts we prepared for them." Li Chengqian said.

"No!" Qiu Shenji took the order, and immediately returned with a few guards.

Each of them held two wine jars in their hands, and they didn't know what was in them.

Then, some guards immediately stepped forward, took out some weird things, and placed them on the top of the city.

At first glance, it looks like a slingshot played by a child, but it doesn't look like it. Just when Liu Lan and others were puzzled.

As Cheng Wuting's voice sounded, Qiu Shenji showed everyone the functions of these gadgets.

"The enemy has advanced to a hundred steps!" Cheng Wuting shouted again.

"It's a northwesterly wind with a moderate wind force." A general from the East Palace reported the wind direction.

Qiu Shenji knew that now was the best time to use fire to attack, so he used this slingshot-like tool to throw the wine jar they brought to the city.

It fell to the ground and hit the running enemy soldiers.

The jar was shattered, and the liquid inside was scattered everywhere, and they could even smell a smell of oil.

"Fire the arrows!" No matter what the prince is doing, now that the enemy army has entered the shooting range, Zhi Shisili immediately ordered to shoot.

"Pa, pa, pa" the trembling bowstring threw the arrow into the sky, drawing an arc in the air, turning into a rain of arrows.

Poured down towards the running and charging enemy army, Xue Yantuo's army continued to charge, raising the shield in his hand above his head to defend against the rain of arrows falling from the sky.

The first wave of arrow rain hadn't landed yet, but the second wave of arrow rain followed closely into the air, drawing an arc again, and turning into shooting at the enemy.

The first wave of arrows rained down, shooting hundreds of thousands of enemies down, or even killing them, and the third wave of attacks on the city began again.

Li Chengqian turned his head and said to Wang Fangyi beside him: "Let's start!"

"Promise!" Wang Fangyi took the order, and immediately drew his bow and arrow, aiming at the city. What he aimed at was not the charging enemy army, but the shattered jar on the ground.

"Crack!" Wang Fangyi loosened his finger, and the arrow flew out from the string, and the flames on the arrow were burning.

The rocket was shot into the ground, and the arrow feathers at the end of the arrow shaft trembled slightly. When the arrow landed, the flames ignited the grease and spirits scattered on the ground, and a sea of ​​flames suddenly ignited.

Under the action of the northwest wind, the fire burned more violently.

"Ah!" The fire ignited the soldiers of Xue Yantuo's army, and the enemy soldiers who turned into fire men screamed and were swallowed by the flames.

The other soldiers who were not burned by the fire fled one after another. Immediately, Xue Yantuo's first echelon was in chaos, and the neat formation began to become chaotic.

And some people start to run backwards, with the first person, more and more people will start to run backwards.

At this time, they had only one thought in their minds, that is to run non-stop, and finally formed a big defeat, and many people even discarded the weapons in their hands.

"Hun Dan!" Ba Zhuo, who saw this scene, was very angry. He originally thought that Wan Tong City could be easily taken down, but he did not expect such a result.

"Order the second echelon to make up for it, launch an attack on Wantong City, and send people to gather up these defeated remnants." Ba Zhuo said.

"Yes!" The messenger galloped away with the order, conveying Bazhuo's order to the leaders of the small tribes in the second echelon.

"What should we do now?" The generals of all the small tribes gathered together.

They were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for Ba Zhuo, and now they could see that Ba Zhuo was planning to use them as cannon fodder.

Let them go to die, while I sit back and enjoy the benefits, where is there such a good thing in the world.

However, if they disobey Bazhuo's order, they know what is waiting for them.

"We simply refused Ba Zhuo on the grounds that the defeat of the first echelon would affect us, and took the opportunity to retreat." A general of a small tribe said.

"Okay! Let's do it like this!" Everyone agreed with his method, and immediately followed suit, making the soldiers under his command pretend to be defeated and flee, and retreat back.

At the same time, they also sent someone to tell the "situation" to the messenger sent by Bazhuo, and asked him to go back and convey it to Bazhuo.

The messenger had no choice but to return to Bazhuo.

Soon, the messengers went back and forth, reporting to Bazhuo: "Report to Khan! The tribal generals of the second echelon said that they were affected by the defeat of the first echelon. The soldiers had no fighting spirit, and even appeared Signs of defeat."

"They need to appease the soldiers below, and they cannot launch an attack on Wantong City."

"What?" Bazhuo was furious after hearing this, how could these guys do this, this is obviously an excuse, what needs to appease the soldiers is all lies.

Ba Zhuo was very angry, these guys actually dared to disobey his orders, if he had known, he would have taken them down together!
"Khan! The second echelon has begun to retreat!" The scouts rushed over and reported to Bazhuo.

Ba Zhuo almost vomited blood. Today's battle was really aggrieved. Before the city wall was touched, the first echelon of the charge was collapsed by the opponent's trick.

Not only that, but it also triggered the collapse of the second echelon. As a result, the entire [-] army lost its combat effectiveness.

How can I let him continue to fight, I can't let his [-] soldiers and horses go to storm Wantong City!
If his soldiers and horses are exhausted, what else can he use to suppress other tribes.

Just when Ba Zhuo was in a dilemma, Meng Jitai said: "Khan! Let's withdraw our troops! The current situation is not good for us. If the enemy troops come out of the city to surprise our army, our army may be difficult to parry."

"It's better to retreat quickly! Khan! It's not too late to make plans when we gather these remnants again."

"Hey! It's a plan for the present! It's the only way! Withdraw!" Ba Zhuo nodded, and Ba Zhuo agreed with Meng Jitai's opinion.

Ba Zhuo would not let his own tribe's soldiers and horses go to attack the city, it was to prevent the generals of other tribes from taking the opportunity to make trouble.

He needs to rely on [-] soldiers to deter and suppress these people's minds.

Right now, Bazhuo can only retreat, hoping that his newly dispatched 20 troops can give him a little surprise.

"Woo~woo~" The horn player blew the horn for retreat, and the sound waves of retreat spread to the entire army.

Xue Yantuo's army began to retreat while gathering the remnants.
