boom!
After a deafening roar, the strongest line of defense at Pingyu Pass finally crumbled, collapsing with its last shred of defiance.
This was like a signal that plunged the battlefield into a brief silence, but then completely ignited it.
"The army advances!"
"Keep bombarding the Crouching Tiger Cannon!!"
Qi Jiguang directly ordered the army to advance, using the power of the Crouching Tiger Cannon to suppress the enemy's front line, forcing the enemy to retreat from the city wall area.
Once the enemy is completely suppressed, the army can charge in without reservation, minimizing unnecessary losses.
In the Emperor's words, the range of the cannons is the only truth, and there is no need to risk soldiers' lives in a charge.
Rumble!
The roar of cannonballs echoed through the sky. The terrifying power made Lu Donghongri unable to lift his head, and he could only retreat step by step until he finally gave up the city wall completely.
Seeing this, a smile flashed in Qi Jiguang's eyes. He looked at Zhang Yide and said with a smile, "Brother Yide, now it's our turn to make a move!"
"Haha, I've been looking forward to this for a long time!" Zhang Fei laughed heartily, raised his twelve-foot spear, and twirled it in the air.
"Kill!"
Qi Jiguang nodded, then gave a loud shout and immediately issued the attack order!
With a wave of his command flag, the war drums behind him began to beat wildly, and the 300,000 Qi Family Army instantly became agitated under the rousing drumbeats.
Go for it!
At the forefront, Qi Family Army, shields raised, charged forward, their 300,000 troops forming a torrent that surged towards the city walls, heading towards Pingyu Pass.
In an instant, the battlefield turned bloody.
Some of the Zhennan soldiers who hadn't had time to evacuate were torn to pieces by the Qi Family Army and fell to the ground with a trace of fear.
"Damn it, this is outrageous!"
Lu Donghongri was forced to retreat repeatedly, and he was furious. His opponent had actually managed to push him forward with such a shameless fighting style.
If this breach cannot be closed, it will become a prelude to one's own demise.
We absolutely cannot let the other side do whatever they want, otherwise the morale of Zhennan's side will completely collapse. We must teach them a lesson.
Seeing the Qi Family Army surge in like a flood, he gritted his teeth and said, " Lu Dongsong, I want your Iron Armor Army to tear apart their vanguard and annihilate them!"
"Don't worry, brother!"
A savage glint flashed in Lu Dongsong's eyes as he sneered, "These Qi Family Army Iron Armor Army are ignorant of their own limitations. Without explosive weapons, they are nothing but a bunch of trash."
Brother, wait here! Watch me take down Qi Jiguang's head!
They were heavily armored; what kind of bastard Qi Family Army were they? They were powerless against such formidable defenses.
"Haha, I believe in you, brother!" Lu Donghongri's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.
The Iron Armor Army's weapon was a natural counter to Qi Jiguang 'Qi Family Army: a long spear, which was absolutely the nemesis of cavalry.
When charging forward, they resemble a giant iron hedgehog; just looking at them from afar sends chills down your spine—they are unstoppable.
With such an army, what could Qi Family Army do?
Although there were only five thousand men, behind them was a densely packed army of the Zhennan Army, which was no less formidable than Qi Family Army.
"Brothers, follow me and charge!"
Lu Dongsong laughed heartily, then charged forward.
Under the fierce attack of the Iron Armor Army, Zhennan Qi Family Army, and even seemed to have the upper hand.
Hahaha!
Seeing this, Lu Donghongri finally regained a sliver of confidence and sneered, "So what if it's the Qi Family Army? I'd like to see how Qi Jiguang can stop my Iron Armor Army!"
These are heavy infantry; can your Qi Family Army stop them?
As the two sides drew closer, they tacitly and decisively launched their attack without holding back.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The archers in the rear of Zhennan fired wildly, aiming directly at the rear of the Qi Family Army Great Liang, attempting to annihilate the enemy's distant attack units.
Meanwhile, the Iron Armor Army at the forefront surged forward like tanks, charging towards the front of the Qi Family Army.
"Haha, follow me and kill!"
Lu Dongsong's eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to shout with excitement. This was his chance to make a great contribution.
Clad in heavy armor, who could stand against him?
However, without realizing it, he had entered the firing range of the muskets.
Bang!
With a loud bang, Lu Dongsong's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a surge of heat rushing towards him, instinctively covering his face.
A tearing pain shot through his hand, but before he could even check, another explosion rang out, and the bullet was aimed straight at him.
"Holy shit!"
The next moment, he felt a tremendous force, and he was sent flying.
Hiss!
Lu Dongsong's face turned pale with pain, feeling as if his internal organs had been shattered. Looking down, his pupils contracted in shock; the armor on his stomach was deformed.
He was completely stunned.
I'm a heavily armored infantryman, and you actually knocked me flying? What's going on?
"Ahhh, my eyes!"
Looking at his brothers beside him, several of them were already covering their eyes and screaming in pain, blood flowing from their palms, clearly indicating that they had been severely injured.
"What?"
The distant Lu Donghongri's expression changed drastically. The best situation that had started had been broken in an instant. What was going on?
Then, one by one, his brothers fell, which made him even paler.
He disregarded morale and said in a deep voice, "Make them retreat quickly! We must preserve some strength so we can hold them off for the rest of the time!"
"General, I'm afraid it's too late!" The lieutenant glanced into the distance and said bitterly.
Amidst the enemy's continuous explosions, their Iron Armor Army collapsed like a house of the Iron Armor Army, and in the blink of an eye, half of them were captured.
The remaining men will likely be wiped out before they can even retreat.
"Hmph, ignorant!"
Qi Jiguang saw the other person's astonished expression and a smile appeared on his lips.
With the existence of the Net, he naturally knew that Lu Donghongri had Iron Armor Army, so how could he be completely unprepared?
The Iron Armor Army was impressive, but unfortunately it encountered Qi Family Army.
The Iron Armor Army was armed to the teeth, but there were still loopholes!
It's true that the opponent is fully armored, but their limbs, face, eyes, and other areas are exposed, making them easy targets.
Under the attack of a shotgun, there are almost no blind spots; it's a complete and overwhelming attack.
The so-called Iron Armor Army was annihilated before it could even last the time it takes for an incense stick to burn under the attack of muskets. Afterwards, the army marched towards Zhennan.
"It's over! The Iron Armor Army is no match for them at all!"
The Zhennan Army behind the Iron Armor Army was so badly defeated that they dared not advance, and some even looked back and scattered.
The aura displayed by Great Liang was truly terrifying; I felt completely outmatched.
