Volume 1, Chapter 77: Suppressing Mitsuko

“Bang!”

With a gunshot, Qi Bao, who had originally looked ferocious, instantly fell off his horse like a deflated ball.

The two Xuanhua axes in his hands fell because he lost his grip, and almost injured the warhorse under his crotch.

Xuanyuan Dabing put away his gun as if nothing had happened and continued to shout towards the city wall: "Those upstairs, come out and collect the bodies!

By the way, if you want to surrender, please do it quickly, it will be too late! "

The moment Qi Bao fell, the smile on Lian Yi's face froze instantly. He was stunned for a long time, then took a breath and shouted, "Qi Bao, what are you doing? Get up!"

Qi Bao was still lying on the ground motionless. It was obvious that the dead could not speak.

Just then Lian Yi heard Xuanyuan Dabing's shouting, and he was so angry that he pointed at Xuanyuan Dabing under the city wall and shouted, "Come on, shoot!

Shoot this scoundrel under the city to death!"

Suddenly, a large number of archers appeared at Mituo Pass and shot at Xuanyuan Pancake.

Xuanyuan Dabing did not dare to be arrogant. He turned around and rode away without stopping at all. He was originally sent by Xiang Yun to provoke the enemy. Now that the effect had been achieved, he naturally would not stay long.

Of course, Xiang Yun thought that if he could really get all the opponents to leave the city and surrender, it would not be unacceptable.

Xuanyuan Dabing was so skilled that even though he was wounded, he just swung the golden sword and no arrow hit him.

Xiang Yun had already deployed the Great Sun Cannon troops one kilometer away from Mituo Pass. Three hundred Great Sun Cannons were aimed at Mituo Pass and were ready.

Soon Xuanyuan Dabing rode up to him, and when he saw Xiang Yun, he shouted, "Your Majesty, they don't want to surrender, and they're shooting at me with arrows!"

Xiang Yun chuckled when he heard this, then his expression turned cold. He stared at the direction of Mituo Pass and shouted in a cold voice: "Get ready, Big Sun Cannon, fire!"

“Boom boom boom!”

Three hundred huge sun cannons fired at the same time, and dense shells flew towards Mituo Pass.

Lian Yi on the city wall was still commanding the generals to organize their troops, preparing to immediately launch an encirclement and attack on Xiang Yun and his 200,000 troops one kilometer away.

At this moment, the entire Mituo Pass exploded in an instant, and there was no time to react. The city walls and military camps inside the pass were covered by dense artillery fire.

After one round of artillery fire, the buildings on the wall of Mituo Pass were completely unrecognizable. A huge hole was blown out and the whole place was charred.

The military camp inside the pass was in a mess. A large number of military tents were blown away, and the remaining ones were all engulfed in flames. War horses were running wildly, and the soldiers were shouting in confusion, running aimlessly for their lives.

This was just the beginning. Xiang Yun continued to order: "Shoot more!"

Another round of artillery fire, dense artillery shells collapsed the entire wall of Mituo Pass, turning it into ruins.

Upon seeing this, Xiang Yun immediately bit his finger, and with blood as a guide, he summoned the Mingguang Armor and the Great Sun Emperor Sword. He rode on his warhorse, pointed his sword at the Mituo Pass, and shouted loudly: "All soldiers, follow me and take down the Mituo Pass in one fell swoop!"

After Xiang Yun finished shouting, he took the brunt of the charge on his warhorse and charged towards the Mituo Pass which had become a ruin.

The 250,000 troops behind him roared and rushed forward as if they were injected with chicken blood.

“Kill! Kill!”

There was no way, they were too excited. They had never fought such an exciting battle before. It was as if God was on their side.

How can you attack a city without first reducing it to ruins?

Is this a siege? This is clearly about rushing forward and grabbing kills!

Poor Xuanyuan Dabing, he had just ridden his horse back to the army, and now he had to follow the large army back to Mituo Pass.

But Xuanyuan Dabing was not annoyed at all by the tossing and turning. He was as excited as the soldiers, waving his sword and shouting, "Kill, kill, kill!"

There were millions of troops from the Mahayana Kingdom inside Mituo Pass, but Xiang Yun's first round of artillery fire had already killed all the generals who were in charge on the wall of Mituo Pass.

The second round of artillery fire directly frightened the soldiers out of their wits and made them lose their fighting spirit. They looked up at the sky or stared blankly at the devastated surroundings, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, the shouting and screaming outside the pass shook the sky. Xiang Yun led an army of 250,000 troops through the ruins and rushed into Mituo Pass.

This frightened the confused soldiers of the Mahayana Kingdom. Xiang Yun and his men came with such force and murderous intent that the soldiers forgot to resist for a moment and ran away in panic.

Three hundred large Japanese cannons fired two rounds, but did not kill too many enemy troops.

However, the million-strong army of the Mahayana Kingdom now has no backbone. Even though there are still many sergeants, squad leaders, and even captains left, their official positions are still too low, and it is too difficult to organize an army to launch a counterattack.

Firstly, the soldiers from other echelons would not obey their orders at all. Secondly, they were so frightened by the power of the Big Sun Cannon that they only wanted to escape. No matter how others shouted, they could not be awakened.

So after Xiang Yun came with his 25-man army, the situation became a completely one-sided massacre.

These one million men were in complete disarray. The Black Armor Army, the Lieyang Army and the Red Feather Army were like executioners on the execution ground, each taking a head with a single strike of their sword.

This battle lasted for two hours. Xiang Yun, covered in blood, looked at the fleeing Mahayana Treasure Kingdom soldiers and shouted loudly, "All troops, stop, set up camp, and clean up the battlefield!"

This battle exhausted Xiang Yun. He found a clean place to sit down and rest. He was tired but refreshed. The feeling of killing enemies on the battlefield was really great. Xiang Yun felt that this was the romance of a man.

Late at night, in the general's tent, Xuanyuan Dabing came in with a list and reported: "Your Majesty, in this battle to capture Mituo Pass, we killed more than 460,000 enemy soldiers, seized 2,500 dan of grain, 100,000 war horses, and countless weapons; our army lost 32 people and injured 171 people."

Xiang Yun's smiling face froze in an instant, and the next moment he cursed: "Are they all good-for-nothings? How can they die in a battle like this?"

This made Xiang Yun very angry. Such a disorganized army could kill more than 30 people of his army. It can be imagined that the combat effectiveness of the two armies is not at the same level at all.

If it weren't for the Great Sun Cannon and the emperor himself leading the charge, it would be wishful thinking to defeat the army of the Mahayana Kingdom!

Xuanyuan Dabing quickly explained: "Your Majesty, there are many brave warriors in the army of the Mahayana Kingdom. Many people have been organized to fight back. I heard from the generals in the army that it is an excellent record to have such a small loss."

Xiang Yun didn't want to hear these explanations. Being weak is being weak. Why are you still looking for excuses?

Xiang Yun was in a bad mood and said unhappily, "Notify all soldiers to have a good rest tonight. At 1:00 a.m. tomorrow, the entire army will set out, heading for Jingu City!"

Xuanyuan Dabing's eyes lit up when he heard this. Amitabha Pass was just a frontier checkpoint of the Mahayana Kingdom. Being conquered was no big deal. The Mahayana Kingdom could counterattack at any time.

But it is different for Jingu City. Once it is conquered, the territory of Jingu City can be truly included in the territory of the Great Sun Dynasty and begin to be managed and divided.

This is a major event in expanding territory. The emperor does have great ambitions!

However, if this were to happen, even if the Great Sun Dynasty completely broke off relations with the Mahayana Kingdom, the subsequent war would surely be a life-and-death battle.

When Xuanyuan Dabing thought of this, he excitedly ran to inform all the soldiers. It was really exciting.

Jingu City is the closest city to Mituo Pass in the Mahayana Kingdom. It is responsible for supplying resources to the soldiers of Mituo Pass all year round. A large number of merchants traveling between the two countries have their businesses here, so this city can be regarded as a rich city.

That night, the soldiers guarding Jingu City were preparing to close the city gates and start the curfew when they suddenly saw a large number of people and horses running towards them from a distance. Because it was dark and they couldn't see their clothes clearly, they immediately shouted, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

A large number of soldiers immediately rushed over to the city wall. As time went by, the soldiers defending the city gradually felt their scalps tingling.

In the darkness ahead, a densely packed army is rushing towards us at a very fast speed. At a glance, there is no end in sight. There are probably hundreds of thousands of them.

There are only 50,000 defenders in Jingu City. How can they hold it?

Who are these people? Could they be the army of the Great Sun Dynasty coming here to launch a surprise attack?

But that shouldn’t be the case. Isn’t there Amitabha Pass ahead as a line of defense to resist the Great Sun Dynasty? There are millions of troops there!

In the darkness, it was hard to see the faces of the people. The soldiers on the wall shouted in panic, "What should we do? They are getting closer and closer to the wall. Should we fight or not?"

Someone even shouted loudly: "Who is coming from the front? If you dare to come closer, kill without mercy!"

The person closest to the city shouted loudly: "Open the city gate quickly, we are all the defenders of Mituo Pass!"

Later, more and more deserters came rushing over. They were all fleeing from Mituo Pass and were all shouting towards the walls of Jingu City.

"Hurry up and open the city gate and let us in!"

"I'm so thirsty, I need water and food!"

As they got closer, the people on the city wall could see their uniforms clearly. They were indeed their own country's army, so someone ordered, "Open the city gate quickly and let them in!"

"Don't open it!"

Suddenly, a sudden shout was heard. The soldiers on the wall of Jingu City were startled when they heard it. They looked in the direction of the voice and saluted quickly, saying, "Lord City Lord!"

The Lord of Jingu City, Jin Ba, came over in a dark red brocade robe with a stern face. He then stood on the city wall and looked down at the soldiers below with cold eyes. He scolded them, "Why are the guards of Mituo Pass not guarding the pass at this late hour, but running to Jingu City? What do you want to do?"

A captain riding on a warhorse shouted loudly: "Mituo Pass has been breached by the Great Sun Dynasty. We are here to escape. Lord Jin, open the city gate quickly!"

Jin Ba frowned upon hearing this and said in a cold voice: "Who are you? Tell your general to come and see me!"

The captain shouted, "All the generals are dead. Now I am the highest official here!"

Jin Ba laughed loudly upon hearing this and scolded, "Do you think this city lord is a fool? You have hundreds of thousands of people behind you. How can you, a captain, have a say here?"

"City Lord Jin, whether you believe it or not, this is the reality. Please let us into the city." City Lord Jin Ba was extremely strong, and the tone of the captain softened.

Jin Ba continued in a cold voice, "Let me ask you this question. Marshal Lian Yi is guarding the Mituo Pass, and there are millions of troops stationed there. You all said that the Mituo Pass was breached, so why didn't you fight to the death in the pass?

How many troops did the Great Sun Dynasty send to kill hundreds of thousands of you and force you to flee? Is it three million or four million? "
