Chapter 399 Abandoning Armor
The north gate of Blue Moon Capital City fell quickly. Once the north gate, which was only garrisoned by tens of thousands of troops, was captured, hundreds of thousands of mighty troops poured in one after another. The consequences can be imagined!
Sun Yuan rushed towards the west gate of the Blue Moon Capital City almost non-stop. Under Du Long's remote command, the general attack time of the east and west gates was appropriately staggered to match the timing of Sun Yuan's opening of the city gate to reduce unnecessary casualties as much as possible!
Soon, the west gate of Blue Moon Capital City was also opened. Haotian's hundreds of thousands of troops responsible for attacking from the west gate barely encountered much resistance and successfully rushed into the west gate!
At this moment, Sun Yuan flew directly over the Blue Moon Capital City, as if he was in an uninhabited land, over the entire city, and shot towards the east gate. The speed was so fast that ordinary people below could only see a white afterimage of lightning flash. And pass!
In the entire Blue Moon Capital City, there are only three spiritual masters from the four major families left, and these three have become 'one of their own'. Naturally, Sun Yuan does not have to worry about encountering spiritual masters when flying over this city. Attack!
A large number of Haotian's troops poured into the northwest gates, which naturally alarmed the defenders on the southeast sides. Unfortunately, the Imperial Guards and Zhenhai Regiment soldiers who had already killed the red-eyed soldiers had no time to pay attention to the other two gates at this moment. Case!
Besides, you can tell with your toes that most of the Zhenhai regiment soldiers on both sides have come here, so how can they withstand the siege of Haotian's two million army? Moreover, there are spiritual masters in charge!
Then, a funny scene appeared!
Inside the Blue Moon Capital City, a large number of soldiers from the Zhenhai Regiment were fighting to the death with the Blue Moon Imperial Guards. However, at the northwest gate of the Blue Moon Capital City, a large number of Haotian troops marched straight in, and almost did not encounter any decent resistance!
As for the two southeastern gates of Blue Moon Capital City, the generals of the Zhenhai Regiment who had been sent by Jin Yanhuan to break up the fight early in the morning were trying their best to break up the fight, but it was a pity that these new recruits had no sense of military regulations. They simply did not obey the orders of their superiors!
This situation continued until General Zhenhai Jin Yanhuan arrived, but nothing improved. These new recruits had long been disappointed with him, General Zhenhai, and now no one took him seriously at all!
It's a pity that in the Blue Moon Empire, the puppet King Xin has been able to control almost zero troops since he came to the throne. In order to guard against Jin Yanhuan, he is not willing to let him continue to command the three armies!
As a result, all major legions in the entire Blue Moon Empire capital city do not have a unified marshal to control them. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as independent!
Originally, according to the new emperor's intention, he was preparing to solve this leaderless situation these days, and people from the four major families also provided him with some suggestions. Of course, most of the suggestions they provided were under Du Long's instructions and were deliberately delaying time. .
Thousands of miles of embankment, collapsed by ants, all were disintegrated and disintegrated. The result can be imagined!
Near the east gate, Jin Yanhuan worked hard for a long time behind the group of new recruits to no avail. After receiving the news that Haotian's army marched straight in from the second northwest gate and had entered the capital of the Blue Moon Empire, the world-famous General Zhenhai once again He spat out a mouthful of blood and was almost carried away from the scene by his henchmen in the end!
Over the east gate, a snow-white figure flew up in the sky, attracting the attention of many people. In front of the soldiers from both sides below, Sun Yuan dodged and rushed to the east gate behind the Second Guards Corps, swiping his sword to clear the city. After seeing the defenders at the gate, they rushed straight to the city gate!
"Wow! This door is simply fixed with door bolts, which saves me a lot of effort!" After Sun Yuan saw clearly that the east city gate was not as reinforced as the northwest gates, he immediately burst out with joy. of laughter.
To be honest, even if it can cut the thick black iron bar into two pieces with one strike, doing so consumes a lot of energy and will also make its arms sore and uncomfortable. If it can save this energy, it will Naturally, I am very excited!
After easily kicking the city gate bolt away, the monkey head didn't bother to pay attention to the stunned looks of many guardsmen behind him, and began to push open the extremely heavy iron gate with all his strength!
On weekdays, the heavy iron door could only be opened by Ji Kuo and more than a dozen people, but it was slowly pushed open by it alone!
As the city gate was pushed open, you could see from the city gate that a large number of Haotian troops were coming to kill you. For a moment, the soldiers of the Blue Moon Second Guards Corps who were responsible for guarding the east city gate finally began to stir up!
"It's not good, it's not good! The Haotian army is coming to kill us. Everyone, please run away for your lives!"
"Stop killing each other! Run for your life!"
For a moment, inside the East City Gate, a large number of troops from the Second Regiment of the Imperial Guard began to flee in panic. Everyone subconsciously chose to flee to the south of the city!
Seeing Haotian's army charging straight into the east gate from the suspension bridge, the new recruits of the Zhenhai Regiment were all dumbfounded. They finally woke up and turned around and ran away to the south of the city!
Of course, there are also people who are not afraid of death. They continue to wave weapons and rush towards the east city gate, hoping to fight to the death. Unfortunately, the first person to greet them is not the soldiers of the Haotian army, but Sun Yuan who has just completed his mission!
This monkey head has just received orders from Du Long to cooperate with the army attacking the east gate and defeat the enemy defenders in one fell swoop. They cannot be allowed to form an orderly defensive front!
As soon as Sun Yuan heard that he no longer needed to destroy the city gates and could finally go on a killing spree, his red eyes immediately flashed with terrifying light, and he rushed towards the recruits who were not afraid of death, waving the Red Flame Slash in his hand!
With a few hits of the Red Flame Slash, the flaming blade that came with it was slashed out with a wave of his hand. The flaming blade exploded out of thin air, became hundreds of meters long, and cut straight at the large number of enemy troops that were rushing toward them risking their lives!
The hundreds of meters long flame blade shot forward thousands of meters in an instant, slicing through all the people, horses and houses along the way without any stagnation!
A long street filled with people was instantly cleared by this flaming blade. Such a terrifying scene became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Looking at the corpses on the ground, whether they were recruits of the Zhenhai Regiment or forbidden soldiers, The soldiers of the Second Guard Corps all gave up any thoughts of resistance and joined the great escape team one after another!
At the south gate of the Blue Moon Empire, as more and more defenders fled here, the fighting here soon stopped!
"It's okay to go out through the south gate! However, you need to put down your weapons and take off your armor, otherwise! I'm sorry, I have to kill without mercy!" Dou Qing, the commander of the first regiment of the Imperial Guard, stood on the south gate command tower. Above, he actually shouted loudly with a faint smile on his face.
Above the south gate, a large number of soldiers of the First Guards Corps were seen with a yellow belt tied to their arms. Heavy weapons such as siege crossbows that were supposed to be aimed at the outside of the city were all turned around and aimed at the deserters inside the city. They!
"We are soldiers of the Second Guards Corps, let us go quickly!" Several generals from the Second Guards Corps shouted as they rushed towards the south gate with a group of subordinates.
Thump, thump, thump!
Three bright crossbow arrows were fired directly in front of the group of people. On the south gate command tower, Dou Qing said with a serious face: "I'll reiterate it again! Anyone who wants to leave through the south gate must put down their weapons and take off their armor! Otherwise, anyone who crosses these three crossbow arrows will be killed without mercy!"
Seeing that Dou Qing, the commander of the First Guards Corps, didn't seem to be joking. Hearing the constant shouts of killing coming from behind, some of the deserters finally gritted their teeth, threw down their weapons, took off their armor, and ducked towards the south gate. Rushed over!
In this regard, the First Guards Corps on the city wall completely turned a blind eye and allowed these unarmed people to pass freely!
The power of example is powerful, and people soon followed suit. Suddenly, a funny scene appeared at the south gate. A large number of soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor, and then escaped from the south gate with bare hands!
As time went by, some people behind did not believe in evil, and actually rushed through the three warning arrow lines fully armed. The result was absolutely miserable. They were killed on the spot by siege crossbow arrows fired from the city wall, and even the bodies were not able to lie down. After being pierced through the body by the powerful force of the siege crossbow, he was nailed to the ground diagonally!
With these people as examples, the deserters who came later obediently abandoned their helmets and armor, and then fled from the south gate of the capital with bare hands!
As for the First Legion of the Imperial Guard, they still sent out men to collect the armor and weapons that those people had discarded. If they don't collect them, the entire south gate may be blocked by these mountains of weapons and armor!
"Dou Qing! What are you doing?! Why do you have to put down our weapons and armor before we can go out through the south gate?!" Soon, a team of nearly ten thousand people appeared among the retreating crowd. The first to bear the brunt was the forbidden The chief and deputy generals of the Second Guards Corps!
"Haha!" Dou Qing raised his head and laughed: "Yin Dongyao, Zheng Kaiwei! If you don't want to die, you should put down your weapons and armor obediently. For the sake of our long love, I will still let you live!"
"You... are you saying that the rumors that your four major families betrayed the Blue Moon Empire are all true?!" Yin Dongyao, the commander of the Second Guards Corps, pointed angrily at Dou Qing and asked.
"Hehe, a good bird chooses a tree to roost in! The Blue Moon Empire is like a rotten tree. Naturally, our four major families will not cling to a rotten tree like you do!" Dou Qing sneered indifferently.
Today, even the Blue Moon Capital City is about to be captured. The news that the four major families have taken refuge in the Haotian Empire is no longer a secret. Therefore, Dou Qing can no longer keep it a secret!
"That's it! I understand, everything that happened during this period of time was planned and stirred up by you behind the scenes! Dou Qing, you have caused misery to the Blue Moon Empire!" Zheng Kaiwei's voice was filled with anger. He yelled angrily with a clear vibrato.
"Hahaha! Could it be said that without those little episodes, you guys could have defended the capital of the Blue Moon Empire?! It's really ridiculous!" Dou Qing said at the end, looking a little impatient: "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you. If you want to fight, fight, if you don't want to fight, throw down your weapons and armor and let me get away!"
Frowning at the tens of thousands of soldiers of the First Guards Corps on the city wall, as well as the sharp crossbows and terrifying siege crossbows, Yin Dongyao and Zheng Kaiwei fell silent.
They all know that in order to escape as quickly as possible, they don't even carry shields. Without shield protection, these crossbow arrows become very deadly. With thousands of people, it is simply impossible to break through this line of defense. !
