I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 712: Two Armies Confronted
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

The Qing army fled in a panic, leaving behind a field of corpses and wounded soldiers.

"General, the Tang army has occupied the east gate and they are blocking our way!"

"General, please make a quick decision."

The Qing army generals were all in a panic.

The Tang army was able to break through the city gate?

How can this be?

"Quick, quick, rush over!"

Sony roared loudly and rashly led the last 10,000 Qing troops to prepare for a breakout.

He knew this was a dead end, but he would not feel at ease if he didn't try it.

"Kill! Kill!"

Sony leads the charge.

Wu Liuqi, who was supervising the battle in the rear, saw this and nodded in appreciation, saying, "Well, this Sony is really courageous."

The Qing Dynasty lacked loyal people like Sony, which was Wu Liuqi's biggest regret.

"Send an order, have the captain and his men intercept Liu Sheng's siege troops and annihilate them completely."

Wu Liuqi issued this order.

"Yes!"

Then Wu Liuqi walked towards the city wall, and victory was assured.

On the city wall, Shen Youcai was looking at Wu Liuqi, and he couldn't help but reveal a worried expression.

"General, I think our army should try to avoid fighting with the Tang army. After all, we are a tired army, while the enemy is a veteran. If both sides fight desperately, I'm afraid it will be bad for us."

Shen Youcai is worthy of being a veteran and he thinks deeply.

"Well, you're right."

Wu Liuqi nodded: "Have you seen the Emperor of the Tang Army? There is no guard behind him. If we lead the cavalry to attack and capture Li Zheng, we can save the situation."

Shen Youcai sighed and said, "General, I do not agree with your proposal."

"Did you not see clearly?"

Song Sheng is in the Tang army. He holds a long sword in his hand and his eyes are bright. It is obvious that he is not an ordinary general. What's more, these Tang soldiers are brave and good at fighting. Once we rush into the Tang army's formation, I am afraid we will be in great danger.

Shen Youcai's judgment was correct, because Song Sheng was indeed very powerful. With his Embroidered Spring Sword, he was invincible and killed countless enemy soldiers.

Shen Youcai smiled bitterly: "I don't think it's a good idea. The enemy is attacking the city gate fiercely. If we don't go to rescue them, the city will definitely not be saved. Moreover, I don't think the Tang army can take the north gate."

"Why?" Wu Liuqi asked puzzledly.

"Because they don't have enough troops." Shen Youcai analyzed: "According to my estimation, the guards outside the city, Li Zheng, have at most 20,000 men, plus the follow-up guards and cavalry, the total force should be around 40,000 to 50,000. Now we have 20,000 to 30,000 troops, while the Tang army only has a few thousand men."

Wu Liuqi couldn't help but snorted coldly after hearing this, and said: "You overestimate the Tang army. They just rely on the power of firearms. Even if the Shenji Battalion helps, how long can they hold out?"

"Let's do it now. We have 5,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry. Let's quickly attack Li Zheng."

So the Qing army attacked the west gate, which was not attacked by the Tang army. Twenty thousand Qing soldiers filed out.

"The enemy is moving out."

Shen Youcai's expression suddenly changed, "General, be careful of the enemy's sneak attack."

"It's okay." Wu Liuqi shook his head: "We have artillery, so even if 10,000 people come, it's okay."

"Rumble"

The artillery made a deafening roar, and rows of shells whizzed out and headed straight for the enemy.

"Pfft, pfft"

The shells exploded when they hit the ground, instantly blowing many people to pieces.

This round of volleys was very exciting, and most of the Qing army was killed or wounded.

"Hurry into town."

Wu Liuqi waved his whip and led his troops towards the west gate.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The Tang army musketeers were also firing wildly.

"Shhhhhh..."

Rockets flew out and landed among the Qing army.

"what."

Accompanied by a series of screams, the Qing army's charge was forced to stop and countless people fell.

"Catapult."

Wu Liuqi was furious when he saw this and immediately gave the order.

"Rumble"

Under the cover of artillery and catapults, dozens of giant catapults slowly drove in. This type of catapult is relatively heavy, but it is flexible and extremely threatening.

Soon it pushed the huge iron blue towards the Tang army.

"Oh!"

"Wow."

This huge iron-blue object fell to the ground, causing an immediate devastating disaster.

The pungent smoke from the gunpowder made it hard to breathe. Song Sheng handed Li Zheng a handkerchief and said, "Your Majesty, just cover your mouth and nose with this."

Li Zheng shook his head, "Song Sheng, do you think these 20,000 Qing troops can charge in front of me?

Song Sheng glanced at the 20,000 Qing troops led by Wu Liuqi and didn't take them seriously at all.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will take the Royal Guards to help Your Majesty clean up now."

"Well, let's go."

Three thousand Jinyi Guards formed a battle formation, but there were only one thousand Jinyi Guards actually defending against Wu Liuqi.

Song Sheng stood in front of the formation. He was not riding a horse, but holding an embroidered spring sword, quietly waiting for the sneak attack from the Qing army.

"shhhhhh"

"bang bang bang"

Under the cover of artillery and flintlock rifles in the rear, a thousand Jinyiwei appeared like ghosts.

The mission this time is simple and clear, which is to destroy this enemy force.

Song Sheng's eyes were extremely sharp. He drew out his embroidered spring sword, pointed at the distance, and said calmly, "Shoot."

"Swish"

Countless black arrows flew down, instantly covering the advancing Qing army.

"puff"

"what!"

Countless Qing soldiers were hit by arrows, and even their horses were shot and fell to the ground.

"Damn it."

Wu Liuqi was horrified. He quickly tightened the reins and shouted, "Shieldmen, get ready."

"Om-"

On his side, hundreds of wooden shields formed a shield wall, and then the Qing army raised their shields and moved forward, trying to block the rain of arrows from the Tang army.

"put!"

After the arrows fell, Song Sheng uttered a word coldly.

"Shhhhhh!"

Teams of Jinyiwei once again fired a rain of arrows, and then continued to draw their bows and shoot arrows.

"Pfft!"

Under such overwhelming attacks, the Qing troops under Wu Liuqi fell one after another.

"Asshole."

Wu Liuqi yelled angrily, "What are you all standing there for? Go ahead!"

However, this is just the beginning, the Jinyiwei are not cold weapon killers.

Two hundred steps.

One hundred and fifty steps.

One hundred steps.

Song Sheng grinned: "All troops, listen up, take out the grenades."

"Pull the insurance."

Two thousand Jinyiwei skillfully took out grenades from their waists, pulled out the safety pins one second later and threw them into Wu Liuqi's army formation.

Li Zheng's face showed a hint of smile, "My Lord, times have changed."

blah blah blah!
In the blink of an eye, thousands of the most advanced grenades fell directly into the formation of the 20,000 Qing troops.

"Boom boom boom"

At this moment, the sound of explosions resounded throughout the world, countless pieces of flesh flew everywhere, blood mixed with internal organs scattered all over the ground, the scene was disgusting.

"Kill!"

Song Sheng raised his arm and led his men to charge in, leaving corpses everywhere they passed.

"retreat."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Liuqi immediately ordered his subordinates to retreat.

But it was too late.

The Tang army had already set up an ambush.
