Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2098 Fierce battle against Zhao Xincheng (continued)

One moment it was a strong city standing on a mountain pass, and the next moment it was already like a ghost.

The whole city seemed to be ruthlessly arched by a monster emerging from the ground. The walls collapsed and the houses collapsed. The heavy snow was forced to fly in all directions by the smoke and dust.

Countless Xue Yantuo soldiers were buried alive by the collapsed houses and city walls, and countless bricks, tiles, stones, broken wood residues were thrown into the sky, and then fell like a torrential rain.

Yinan Khan, Qibi Kele, Xiao Siye... Everyone was stunned.

What kind of terrifying power is this, to be able to explode with such power, destroying a city and burying nearly a hundred thousand troops?
Under the ruins of the city, there are still surviving Xue Yantuo soldiers struggling to climb out of the ruined walls. Many of them were blown to pieces of flesh and blood, their limbs and arms were broken, and each of them seemed to be a ghost who had come back from hell. , screaming everywhere, crying loudly!
The Tang Army, which had originally shrunk to the south of the city, began to counterattack in an organized manner at this time. They dispersed one by one, with shield players and Mo Dao players in front, and musketeers behind, facing the surviving enemy troops and launching a merciless killing , Gunshots sounded like popping beans, and from time to time, the flickering flames and deafening roar of thunder blasted the ruins again, even the enemy troops buried in the ruins could not escape bad luck.

Yi Nan Khan managed to recover from the shock, seeing that the entire city of Xin Zhao was in ruins, and countless soldiers were slaughtered, his eyes were tearing apart!
"Gunpowder! This is gunpowder! This is the kind of firearm that destroyed Wuchuan Town!"

Qibi Kele screamed in panic.

Others may not know how Tang Jun turned the whole city into a purgatory in an instant, but Qibi Kele knew that this was the method Tang Jun used to blow up Wuchuan Town.

He now knows what's wrong!
It was not that the Tang army was unable to resist and had to retreat, and it was a premeditated trick, which was to force Xue Yantuo's army to rush into the city step by step, and the Tang army had already planted a huge amount of gunpowder under the city, just waiting for Xue Yantuo's army to attack. , and then there was a loud bang, and they all exploded into the sky!

This is nearly 10 people!
too vicious...

He couldn't help turning his head back to stare at Xiao Siye, what a poisonous trick!

I thought he was a traitor from the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect that he was really a "dead man", who led Xue Yantuo's army into hell step by step, and the whole army was wiped out!
Suddenly, he saw Yi Nan Khan suddenly turned his head, stared at Xiao Siye, gritted his teeth for a while, and was speechless.

He regrets it!
I am so regretful that my intestines are green, how can I be blinded by butter, and believe in the bewitching of such traitors?
Qibi Kele didn't look good. Right now, Xue Yantuo has lost a lot. Only the [-] to [-] troops left outside the city can no longer continue to rule Mobei. The whole Mobei is about to face a violent wash The card, where does the Qibi Department go, but it all falls on Xiao Siye, who has made "great contributions" to the Tang Dynasty, so how can Yinan Khan be killed so easily?
He quickly pulled Yi Nan Khan's arm, and said in a loud voice: "Khan calm down, now is not the time to pursue the crime, you should quickly order to return to the tooth tent, otherwise once the Tang army chases you, it will be difficult to escape!"

Before Yi Nan Khan could react, Ye Mang on the other side suddenly pulled out his waist knife, and rushed towards Xiao Siye with his horse's belly, his eyes were about to burst, and he cursed: "Traitor! How dare you bewitch Father Khan?" If you underestimate the enemy and rush forward, you are obviously a spy sent by Datang, I will tear you to pieces!"

Xiao Siye was terrified, and shouted: "General Qibi, save me!"

Qibi Kele wanted to hold back Yemang, but it was too late, and shouted, "The eldest prince keeps someone under his sword..."

The army of more than one hundred thousand was wiped out in an instant, and the whole Xue Yantuo would be devastated because of this, and even became the target of bullying by various tribes on the grassland. It was all thanks to this spy. if?
He stepped forward immediately, raised the waist knife in his hand, and slashed down fiercely.

"oops!"

Xiao Siye didn't have a weapon, so he stretched out his arm in horror to block it, but his arm was chopped off by the sharp waist knife, causing him to cry out in pain, and fell off the horse's back.

Ye Mang threw away the waist knife, took a spear from the victory hook, held it with one arm, and threw it towards Xiao Siye who was on the ground.

The spear turned into a phantom, hit Xiao Siye's heart, and nailed him to the ground.

Poor Xiao Siye howled and struggled a few times, his limbs twitched and died.

Qibi Kele had no choice but to let go of Yi Nan Khan's arm, looked at Xiao Siye's dead body, and sighed deeply.

It's over now, Xue Yantuo suffered a big defeat, which damaged the foundation. In the future, the Mobei Hu people will go their separate ways and turn against Yingtian. As a staunch supporter of Xue Yantuo, if he can't get the support of Datang, he will definitely become the target of attack and annihilation by various ministries.

Xue Yantuo couldn't take care of himself, how could he cover the Qibi tribe?
It's abominable!
This Ye Mang attack is too ruthless...

He sighed with regret on one side, while Yinan Khan on the other side glared at him, and asked, "This beast is hateful. I tricked me into stepping into the Tang army's trap. I lost my army and lost my general. If I don't peel it off, I won't get rid of the pain in my heart." Hate, why did the general stop me?"

Qibi Kele had no choice but to say: "Great Khan Mingjian, it's not that I want to cover up this traitor, but since this person is the "death" of the Tang Dynasty, its significance to the Tang Dynasty is naturally of great significance. If this person can be captured alive, Using it as a threat, I must be able to ask for some benefits from Datang, so that I won't get anything miserable, but instead I have achieved the reputation of being a loyal and fierce man."

Yi Nan Khan said angrily: "Where do you care about this? If I don't kill this beast, how can I save my face? Needless to say, get on the horse quickly, we will withdraw the tooth tent, and then recruit the young and strong of all ethnic groups. Make calculations."

"Here!"

Qibi Kele didn't dare to say more, so he quickly jumped on the horse's back, turned the horse's head, and was about to follow the Yinan Khan back north to the tooth tent, but he heard another loud bang in his ears, and the road was tens of miles wide. The icy debris and earth clods of Zhang Zhang's mountain pass were blown into the sky, and then fell to the ground like a torrential rain.

Smoke and dust filled the air.

The wide mountain pass was blasted out by the gunpowder, with a width of three feet, and the left and right sides reached the deep ditch on the mountain walls on both sides.

Yi Nan Khan's face was pale, with despair in his eyes.

This ditch is three feet deep, which is not enough to block the walk, but the permafrost in the ditch has been blown to pieces, and there are large and small fragments everywhere. It may take too much time to walk there.

The fighting sounded loudly behind the scenes, the Tang army had already wiped out the remaining enemy troops in the city, and came after them...

This ditch obviously did not cut off Yinan Khan's retreat, but it made him have to pause and give Tang Jun time to pursue.

But where can he hesitate at this moment?
Yi Nan Khan gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Get off the horse, go quickly!"

Jump off the horse first, lead the horse and jump into the ditch, everyone on the left and right dismounted, and imitated his appearance, leading the horse across the deep ditch with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Even though most of the soldiers were lost inside the city, there were still tens of thousands of troops left outside the city. At this time, they could not gallop their horses. The soldiers in front dismounted and slowly crossed the deep ditch, while the soldiers behind could only wait. This gave the Tang army musketeers a chance to show off their might, and completely ruined these soldiers here.

"bang bang bang"

The dense Xue Yantuo soldiers and hedgehogs gathered between the mountain passes did not need to aim at all, just stand in a row to reload, shoot, reload, shoot... such a mechanical cycle.

The dense gunshots shook the snow on both sides of the mountain pass, and the snow fell in the sky. The smoke after the shooting filled the entire mountain pass.

Xue Yantuo's soldiers, who had no time to cross the deep ditch, became living targets. They were bombarded like pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep in front of the overwhelming hail of bullets. It formed a pool of blood, and then was frozen by the severe cold, presenting a strange and poignant alluring blood red.

Zhao Xincheng became a hell for Xue Yantuo's army.

All the tens of thousands of catties of gunpowder carried by Youtunwei were buried in the ground of the entire city, connected by lead wires, and a single torch created the largest artillery battle in the world, killing half of Xue Yantuo's army of nearly [-], and the remaining survivors were also scarred The seriously injured were beheaded on the spot, because with the medical conditions of this era, there was no need for medical treatment, and the slightly injured were captured.

However, the retreat of Xue Yantuo's army outside the city was blocked, and the gunpowder blasted the mountain pass into a deep ditch, which seriously slowed down the retreat speed of Xue Yantuo's army. The Tang army who arrived later ravaged the mountain pass with muskets. .

Xue Yantuo's entire army was wiped out...
