Turbulent Times Chapter 1119: Tianzi Qinjun


Shan Xiongxin nodded and took five trebuchets and pushed five carts forward.

As the distance approached, the catapults of the Goguryeo people fired their power, and stone bullets the size of a human head fell from the sky. Yuwen Chengdu no longer cared about the arrows above his head. After the pickaxe penetrated deeply into the ground, he took a quick step back to prevent the stone from hitting the huge shield and damaging the shield soldiers. Shan Xiongxin led two hundred people in a horizontal row and followed closely behind the five thousand emperors. Behind the military guards.

Boulders smashed on the giant shield with a loud bang, and the giant shield immediately sank into a large piece. Some boulders jumped over the giant shield and landed among the scattered guards of the Son of Heaven's army. They hit the dry and hard ground and then shattered. The heavy armor of the pawns jingled. As for the guards of the Son of Heaven who were directly hit by the boulder, there was only a puddle of blood on the ground. As for the corpse, it was smashed to pieces by the powerful boulder and fell all over the ground. yes.

Fortunately, the guards of the Son of Heaven are all the most elite soldiers selected from the Twelve Guards. He was heavily armored, and he was used to fighting the king of soldiers. Although he was frightened, no one took a step back.

The Sui army's ten crossbows and eight ox crossbows reacted immediately. Ten strong men with wooden mallets hit the hammer heavily on the machine bracket, buzzing, three times in succession, The ten crossbows and guns left the eight oxen crossbows and flew towards the city.

The rest of the soldiers immediately re-stringed the eight-ox crossbow in an orderly manner, installed crossbow guns, and then let out a cry to re-activate the machine guns, and used continuous arrow rain to maintain uninterrupted suppression of the city.

However, the effect was not good. The stone bombs thrown by the trebuchet were still dense. Under the arrangement of Yuwen Chengdu, the guards of the emperor's army dispersed again and continued to advance towards the top of the city.

Fortunately, the Sui army attacked fiercely in other places and scattered most of the Goguryeo defenders. Although the Goguryeo people realized that the Sui army pushing towards the city gate was the best of the Sui army's elite, it was difficult to concentrate all their long-range attacks here.

But even so, the Sui army pushing towards the city gate was still like a magnet, firmly attracting the catapults of many Goguryeo people. Guard's Army

There is finally an open space between the formations.

At this time, hundreds of catapults from the Sui army also began to show their power, and in less than a cup of tea, they had already started throwing more dense stone bombs at the top of the city.

The dense stone bullets collided in mid-air, and the flying gravel was like a torrential rain.

When the bodyguards of the Five Thousand Emperors of the Sui Army were less than a hundred steps away from Liaodong City, the city gate suddenly opened wide, and a troop of Goguryeo cavalry poured out from the city gate. The bang of the drums.

Shan Xiongxin was shocked when he saw this, thinking that gunpowder had blown up the city gate in Daluo City, Annan County, Goguryeo. Yuan Taizuo in Liaodong City might have gotten the news.

It is reasonable to say that this is impossible, because there are millions of troops surrounding Liaodong City, and Liaodong City has already become an isolated city. After Qianyuan Taizuo learned that Yang Guang was going to conquer Goguryeo, he sent a very small part of the five hundred secret spies to the Sui Dynasty.

"Long gun forward!"

Although it was a big surprise that the Goguryeo people sent people out of the city, you must know that this is the first time that the Goguryeo people have sent people out of the city since the siege, but Yu Wencheng did not have the slightest timidity. Entering the ground, the pikemen's spears quickly protruded from the muzzle of the tower shield, and the entire army formation looked like a huge hedgehog.

Ba Niu's crossbow also changed its strategy, no longer firing strong crossbows at the city wall, but shooting at the gate of the city under Yuwen Chengdu's order.

The huge crossbow and gun whizzed past the heads of the two hundred operators led by Shan Xiongxin, like a swarm of crazy hornets, making their scalps tingle uncontrollably,

Then they saw the most terrifying scene in the world. Countless Goguryeo cavalry were flying in the air. Their bodies were pierced by crossbows and guns, and then they were swaying and nailed to the city wall.

No matter how many people were taken away by crossbows and guns, the huge city gate was like an exit from hell, and there was still a steady stream of cavalry being spit out from the exit, and soon joined the war.

Obviously, Yuan Taizuo may have realized that the secret weapon Wang Junlin used in Annan County appeared here.

"Can you project a gunpowder packet at the current distance?" Shan Xiong

Xin asked in a low voice the centurion who was in charge of directing and counting the thrown explosive packages.

The centurion said calmly: "It's better to be closer, so it's safer."

The Goguryeo cavalry roared across the battlefield. It can be seen that this is the elite of the Goguryeo cavalry. If there is a defect, immediately throw the short spear and the battle ax into it. As long as a gap is opened, the infantry without a unified command can only accept the slaughter of the cavalry.

More cavalry crossed the infantry formation, waved their weapons, howled and charged towards Shan Xiongxin and his party, who were protected by the five thousand emperor's personal army.

The trebuchet at the top of the city has stopped throwing stones. Shan Xiongxin believes that as long as this group of Goguryeo cavalry is defeated, more stones will cover the place again.

Following Yuwen Chengdu's loud shout, rumbling footsteps sounded, he led half of the emperor's personal guards in heavy armor across the shield formation, and rushed towards the surging cavalry with spears and axes.

Under the cover of the eight oxen crossbow, the 2,500 guards of the emperor's army in heavy armor first responded to the enemy with the strong crossbow in their hands. A Goguryeo cavalry fell under his horse.

The infantry of the Sui Dynasty were invincible in the world, let alone the king of soldiers among these soldiers.

It's just that in this world where cavalry is the most important thing, even if the infantry defeats the enemy, they can only watch the enemy flee on horseback, and they will never be able to win a hearty battle of annihilation. The brilliance of the pawns always seemed so faint.

In this world, only the heavy armored infantry can face the cavalry head-on. At the request of the emperor, five thousand emperors' personal guards were sent over.

In a short period of time, Yuwen Chengdu led 2,500 emperor's personal guards in heavy armor to form a thin line of defense in front of the shield formation. They held long-handled battle axes and swords, pulled down their armor and waited. The arrival of Goguryeo light cavalry.

At this time, the battlefield has become a mess, with Sui troops and Goguryeo people fighting together everywhere.
