Part Two, Chapter 40, The Battle of the Imperial Capital 4
[69 Book Bar - www.] I shook my head. Until now, I was still thinking about these stingy things. No matter how bad Pu Anli and I are at odds, he is still fighting for the country now, and I really shouldn't think so.
At this time, the rhinoceros horns roared loudly again, and Pu Anli's 5,000-man team shouted in unison, clapped their horses and charged forward. The 5,000 cavalrymen rushed forward at the same time, causing smoke and dust to billow on the ground, and I could hear the sound of horse hooves in my ears.
Like the beating of a drum, it makes my heart beat violently.
The decisive battle finally begins!
Pu Anli's troops rushed into the snake camp, and the snake men immediately roared like a boiling pot. Even though they were more than thirty feet away, I could still see the blood splashing there, which seemed to turn away the flying dust.
dyed red.
The first wave of attacks by the Imperial Army must have caught the Snakemen off guard, because they didn't expect us to take the initiative to attack. There weren't too many Snakemen camps building that high platform, and their main camp was still a mile away.
, the cry of killing overwhelmed the roar of the snake man for a while.
I stood in front and looked at the dust swirling under the high platform. Cao Wendao suddenly whispered: "General Chu, General Pu seems to have succeeded, but it won't last long. Will Lord Wenhou send reinforcements?"
After all, Thirty Zhang was too close to the city, so the Snake Men probably only put one or two thousand here. The five thousand people brought by Pu Anli were all fresh troops. They were inextricably killed by the Snake Men for a while, and they still had the upper hand.
But I know that this situation will change once the snake team comes up. But now that the reinforcements are coming, it will definitely become
A melee would be very detrimental to us. Marquis Wen would definitely not do this. If he wanted to unleash the power of the Dragon Cannon, he would have to let the Snake Man rush forward. But when the Snake Man rushes to such a close distance,
If the Shenlong Cannon can't stop the Snake Man's offensive, then the war may be over.
I looked at the top of the city. Marquis Wen was holding his hand on the battlement and looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking. What surprised me was that the prince did not leave and was still standing beside Marquis Wen.
The prince is mediocre, but I didn’t expect to stand on the front line at such a critical moment. I have mixed feelings in my heart, and I don’t know what it feels like. He is standing on the top of the city, looking majestic, and he is more powerful than me from every aspect.
I'm far better off. Perhaps, her becoming a princess is a better destination.
I didn't dare to think about it anymore, my eyes were already a little wet. Just as I was about to wipe them away while others were not paying attention, Cao Wendao screamed from the side: "General Pu has stung his hand!"
I raised my head and heard the shouts of killing from Pu'an Li's army getting louder and louder, but the flags were in chaos. Originally, the five thousand troops were marching in five directions, with five big flags surrounding the big flag with the word "pu" in the middle.
The camp was rushing left and right, and it had always been in order. At this time, the flag on the outermost right was shaking as if it had encountered a strong wind, and it looked precarious.
That was the main force of the Snake Man attacking! I couldn't help but look back at Marquis Wen. Marquis Wen was looking at a telescope, but he still didn't move. The messenger next to him was also standing upright.
No matter how brave and skilled Pu Anli is in fighting, he can't hold on for long, not to mention that the number of snake men fighting him at this time is probably more than his. Logically, he should retreat immediately, but he is still fighting, and I am afraid that he is fighting.
Find an opportunity to destroy that high platform.
Flat mines are very powerful, but can they destroy such a huge high platform? As I was thinking, there was a loud "boom" from there, and a column of smoke and dust rose into the sky. Even here, we felt the sand flying towards us.
Soil. Qian Wenyi patted the dust on his head and said, "Hey, it hasn't exploded yet."
At this time, the layer of smoke and dust had gradually dissipated, and it could be seen that only one piece of the high platform had been blown off, and it was still unmoving. The Snake Man's earthen platform was too strong, and Pu'anli had fought hard to this day, but still fell short.
At this time, the rhinoceros horn of Tongtian made another long roar, which was the signal for Pu'anli to return to the army. At this time, all five camp flags in Pu'anli's army fell to the ground, and only one main flag was still swaying.
As soon as Pu Anli retreated, the snake man was about to follow. At this time, Bi Wei came up on his horse and shouted: "General Chu, you follow my orders, be careful."
Now the Fire Legion is blocked by the forward battalion to prevent the Snake Man from seeing any flaws. When the Snake Man rushes into the range of the Divine Dragon Cannon, we will get out of the way. I nodded and said, "Don't worry, General Bi."
Bi Wei snorted and said: "General Chu, please don't delay. If you are a step too late, I will fire a cannon."
There was a surge of anger in my heart. Starting from Dongping City, Bi Wei had been very unfriendly to me. At this time, he was serving as a general under Marquis Wen. He probably felt that I might threaten his status. I also snorted.
, said: "If General Bi feels that there is no need to rely on the forward battalion for cover, then it is better for General Bi to stay far away."
He was slightly startled. My rank is one level lower than his, and I have always been very humble to him. He didn't expect that I would contradict him so much this time. A trace of anger flashed in Bi Wei's eyes, but he just said lightly: "Chu
There’s no need to be angry, general, I’m just reminding you.”
I said, "Thank you." I ignored him and patted him aside. Now that my life and death were on the line, I didn't even know if I would come back alive, so naturally I didn't have to put up with Bi Wei's idleness.
At this time, Pu Anli's troops had begun to retreat. All of his 5,000 men were cavalry, most of them veterans who had accompanied the second prince to fight in Dongping City. Their combat effectiveness was quite strong, but the fierce battle with the snake men was already terrible.
.Seeing them running closer and closer, I couldn't help but feel more and more frightened.
The strength of the snake people in field battles is far beyond our imagination. What strategies does Marquis Wen have to win? I looked at the defeated Pu'an Li army and didn't dare to think too much.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. The snake man was not swimming fast on the ground, so he was chasing in a carriage. However, the carriage was not as fast as the cavalry. Logically, they could have retreated long ago, but Pu Anli could not run fast. They fought.
Let's retreat. Although the snake people's offensive is strong and their numbers are large, they are blocked by Pu'anli's remaining few thousand men and are unable to take a single step forward.
At this time, more and more snake people gathered among them. Pu Anli's army is still maintaining its formation, but it will not be long before it collapses. I watched Pu Anli fight so fiercely, and I couldn't help but be a little stunned. Pu Anli's charging courage was no less than before.
Chai Shengxiang, who is known as the "King of Killers", was not at all confused when he was defeated, and he was as big as Lu Jing
Yu Zhibing. He, Xing Li and Yang Yi used to be colleagues, but now they are their superiors. It is true that his ability is not all due to his father. But no matter how good he is in fighting, under the encirclement and annihilation of the snake-man army, he will definitely
It was a situation where the whole army was annihilated. But Pu Anli was also a very murderous general. He was obsessed with killing and would fight to the death.
As I was watching, I suddenly heard Bi Wei shouting from behind: "Fill the gunpowder!" Turning around, I saw that the Fire Legion had taken off the gun jacket of the Shenlong Cannon and was taking out packages of gunpowder from under the car and filling it into the cannon.
Mouth. I was shocked, clapped my horse and said: "General Bi, General Pu is still fighting fiercely with the snake people. Do you need to use the Shenlong Cannon at this time?"
Bi Wei's face was expressionless and he said: "I have been ordered by the military to let the Snake Man fire the Divine Dragon Cannon when it comes within a hundred steps. General Chu, please move the forward battalion out of the way."
