Chapter 739 Conquering the King City
For dinner on March 19th in the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao still ate in the tent of the Chinese army, but several important heroes such as Kong Ming, Su Yan, Su Buqing and Xu Tan were all together in Qu Mao's tent of the Chinese army during the dinner.
During dinner, Qu Mao reported to several heroes who had dinner together the achievements of the five high-level warrior troops passed by Xinping.
Hearing Qu Mao finished speaking, Su Yan let out a long breath and said: "My lord, the land of Wang Zhanhou and Abyss Hou were harassed by our high-ranking soldiers, and the subordinates are estimated to be in Wang Zhanhou in the northwest area of Liuwang Dukedom. The main force participating in the war with the Abyss Marquis will definitely be popular.
Perhaps when we take down Prince Liu’s King’s City, the expeditionary force on the Northwest Front can also simultaneously take down the garrison area of the main force of King Zhanhou and Abyss. After all, their home city has been attacked.
It is even possible for us to take down the entire northwestern region of the Prince Liu Kingdom simultaneously when we take down the King City of Prince Liu. After all, there are more than 3 million expeditionary soldiers gathered there.
After Lord Hua Tielan's high-ranking soldiers defeated the main force of the Marquis of Lianhe in the northern border, the soldiers of the expeditionary army who had originally confronted the main force of the Marquis of Lianhe could return to join the soldiers in the northwest region. "
Qu Mao nodded and said to Su Buqing: "Su Buqing, you can contact the army heroes in the northwest region to report the military situation and combat arrangements here. They don't need to cooperate with us, but they need to decide how to seize the opportunity to expand the results. "
Su Buqing said: "Yes, my lord! At 8:30 am on March 20th in the fourth year of Tianxuan, 200 seventh-level senior magicians and 1.4 million expeditionary troops will launch an attack on Prince Liu's King City.
The east wall of Liu Wanggong King City is 6 kilometers in total, and the other three walls are almost the same length. We left a total of 500 meters wide openings in the northwest gate and the surrounding area without defense.
The eastern city wall will be our main attack direction, and we will spread out along the straight line of the eastern city wall. At least 50 third-level princess guards will be arranged in front of each seventh-level senior magician for personal protection.
When the seventh-level high-level water magicians and the seventh-level high-level earth magicians have built the chute, and our cavalry is about to rush to the city wall, a total of 40 seventh-level high-level space magicians will send a total of 40 to the city wall at the same time. The death squads, each composed of 100 third-tier fighters, cover the cavalry and other infantry to ascend the city through the ramp..."
Qu Mao waved his hand and said, "I've been practicing for a day and a half, and I will fight hard tomorrow. I don't need to tell me the details. My request has never changed. After the expeditionary force in the Northwest Region understands the battle plan here, they can take advantage of it." move."
At 8:20 a.m. on March 20th in the fourth year of Tianxuan, Qu Mao rode on a war horse, facing the city gate building to the east of Liuwanggong King City, and said to Su Yan beside him: "Su Yan, order Let's attack!"
Su Yan nodded, drove the horses to the temporary command platform, pulled out the sword on the military uniform, and shouted loudly: "Expeditionary Army, attack!"
The soldiers guarding the edge of Dianjiangtai had already ignited billowing smoke, and in an instant, a deafening roar came from the east wall of Wanggong King City: "Kill!"
In the next five minutes, there were shouts of killing from the south wall and the north wall.
As the magicians cast their spells, a total of 8 slopes with a **** of no more than 30 degrees and a width of 5 meters quickly spread to the 24-meter-high city wall of Liu Wanggong King City.
Just as the defenders on the city wall of Liuwang Dukedom were about to launch a counterattack, when they charged down the ramp, there was lightning and thunder on the top of the city wall. of.
Su Buqing personally led the cavalry unit, shouting loudly, and charged along the **** towards the city wall. Behind the cavalry, a large number of third-tier warriors followed and charged.
When they were about to rush up the city wall, the defenders on the city wall of Liuwang Principality were preparing to form a human wall to resist, but after the space fluctuated, a large number of soldiers from the Yicheng Territory Expeditionary Army appeared on both sides of the city wall on the eight slopes.
The magic skills of the high-level magician are really extraordinary. With these 4000 death squad fighters who were teleported up the city wall, not to mention taking down the city wall of the king's city, but holding on to a large number of cavalry and infantry rushing up the slope, the problem is not very serious. big.
When Su Buqing led the cavalry to rush up to the city wall, some of the soldiers who were still resisting in the corner of Liuwanggong King City's defenders had begun to abandon their weapons and kneel down to surrender.
In the early days, the defenders of the king's city used the defensive crossbow to target the seventh-level senior magician to attack, but in front of the seventh-level senior magician who cast the spell, there were layers of third-level princess guards protecting them with shields.
The defensive crossbow on the wall of Prince Liu's king's city is indeed extremely sharp, but a senior magician of the seventh-level earth system can instantly cast an earth wall technique in front of the guards of the third-level princesses.
After breaking through the earth wall, the city guard crossbow can at most continue to take away the lives of several third-tier princess guards, and cannot pose any threat to the seventh-tier senior magician at all.
Qu Mao rode on a horse, watching the fierce siege battle with a blank face. By around 1:00 noon on March 20th in the fourth year of Tianxuan, the siege troops in the Yicheng territory had basically gained an absolute advantage, 1.4 million Among the troops, the proportion of casualties was not large, but after all, it was a siege operation, and many soldiers from the territory of Yicheng were killed.
At around 12 o'clock in the morning, the soldiers in the siege reported to Qu Mao that the king of the Liuwang Principality had brought a large number of family members and supplies, and under the protection of about 200,000 elite soldiers, he escaped from the gate in the northwest of the royal city.
The troops left behind in Prince Liu’s King’s City, regardless of casualties, should have a total strength of less than 800,000 troops. If the battle continued for four hours, the siege troops in Yicheng Territory estimated that the number of defenders who would kill or injure no less than 100,000 troops.
Qu Mao did not ask the soldiers of the expeditionary army to chase after him. The king of the Liuwang Principality who lost the King Liuwang City was just a tortoise without the protection of the turtle shell in Qu Mao's eyes, and there was no longer any danger.
The battle lasted only until 1:30 p.m. on March 20. One hour after the king of Liuwang Duchy fled, most of the Liuwang Duchy soldiers guarding the city surrendered and gave up resistance.
At 3:00 pm on March 20th in the fourth year of Tianxuan, accompanied by Su Yan and Kong Ming, Qu Mao entered the Wangcheng through the gate directly east of the Wangcheng.
A large number of disarmed soldiers and ordinary residents gathered temporarily on both sides of Wangcheng Street.
When Su Yan and Kong Ming surrounded Qu Mao and rode into the royal city on horseback, countless soldiers and civilians who supported Su Yan cheered the slogan "Welcome the return of Your Highness the Princess" and welcomed Qu Mao and Su Yan into the city.
As the former princess of the Tassel Principality, Su Yan had no choice but to wave to the soldiers and civilians.
Liu Wanggong Wangcheng, only held on for half a day before declaring its fall.
