Chapter 351 The Imperial Capital Falls
"Tong... Commander, I... what should we do?"
A forbidden army looked at the army under the city wall, and said to the forbidden army beside him with a pale face.
They are the imperial guards guarding the palace, and they are also the most elite troops in the Tianpeng Kingdom, and their combat effectiveness is extremely powerful!
But facing the situation in front of them, they were really scared. There were 30,000 blood-stained elite cavalry in front of them, and there were only less than 3,000 of them.
30,000 to 3,000, the difference is too big.
The strong and tall city walls of the imperial capital were easily broken by the opponent. The city walls of the imperial palace were far worse than the city walls of the imperial capital. How to defend them?
It wasn't just the little forbidden army who was afraid, the commander's face was also a little pale. He was also a man who fought all year round, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Three thousand people fought against an army of 30,000. No matter how rich his combat experience was, he could not find a way to solve this trouble at this time.
The time for a stick of incense quickly passed, and Li Cunxiao frowned slightly, seeing that the Imperial Army above the palace had no intention of surrendering, and lost patience.
With a light wave of his big hand, the archers behind him took their bows and arrows and aimed at the palace wall.
"shoot!"
Following his order, countless arrows rained down from the sky, killing many imperial imperial guards.
The density of the arrow rain was too high, and the area covered was very wide. The three thousand Imperial Guards crowded on the top of the small palace suffered heavy casualties for a while. middle.
After a wave of arrows passed, the commander of the Imperial Guard finally breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately got up and said angrily: "Get up all for me, shoot arrows, and fight back!"
Because of the order of the commander of the Imperial Guard, the soldiers of the Imperial Guard stood up reluctantly, found bows and arrows and prepared to counterattack.
The equipment of these forbidden troops is much better than that of ordinary defending soldiers. It can be seen from the fact that they are equipped with all gas-transforming arrows.
It's a pity that Li Cunxiao, as a superpower of Samsung Martial Lord, is not afraid of these bows and arrows at all.
Moreover, he could also clearly see that the soldiers on the palace wall were preparing bows and arrows.
Although he himself is not afraid of these bows and arrows, in order to reduce some losses for the Fire Lin army under him, he still decided to strike first.
"Fire arrows!"
Li Cunxiao waved his hand, and another row of archers who had been prepared for a long time took their bows and arrows, and another round of arrows poured down on the city.
This round of arrow rain caused even greater damage, because many soldiers on the city wall stood up and prepared to shoot arrows. They didn't have the time and effort to dodge quickly, so their lives were taken away by bows and arrows before they could be shot.
This time, the imperial imperial army has learned to behave, and one by one, they shrank their heads and hid under the city's head, daring not to show their heads.
"Attack the palace!"
Li Cunxiao ordered that the 50,000 troops pushed forward in unison, and the soldiers on the city wall did not dare to move for fear of standing up and being shot to death.
In the end, in less than half an hour, the palace of the Tianpeng Kingdom was breached.
Because the area of the palace was not large enough, Li Cunxiao only led thousands of elite soldiers in, and also arranged for people to go to the harem to take all the emperor's family into custody.
After arranging matters in the army, Li Cunxiao led the elite soldiers to the Golden Palace in the Tianpeng Kingdom, because he had learned from the eunuch that the emperor was here.
Walking in here, he really saw Qiu Tongbai, who was half a hundred years old, sitting on the dragon seat above.
"Qiu Tongbai, do you still want to continue to sit on it and be the emperor?" Li Cunxiao looked at Qiu Tongbai and smiled.
Qiu Tongbai stared at Li Cunxiao, his eyes wishing to kill him, but in the end it turned into doubt, and said: "I really can't imagine that the Dazhou Kingdom, which has always been known for its weak military strength, can actually push my Tianpeng Kingdom to such a point. , how did Xiao Chen do it?"
Unfortunately, Li Cunxiao did not answer his question.
"Someone! Go and bring Qiu Tongbai down for me, he is not qualified to sit on the dragon seat!"
"As ordered!"
After Li Cunxiao's personal soldiers answered, they stepped forward and took Qiu Tongbai off the dragon chair.
At this moment, a few sword lights suddenly flashed, and several personal soldiers who went up were beheaded.
Two old men in Jiaolong robes suddenly appeared in the hall, then stared at Li Cunxiao and said coldly, "You dare to kill members of my royal family?"
"Two two-star martial artists!"
Li Cunxiao was a little surprised and said, "No wonder Tianpeng Kingdom is the strongest among the four kingdoms. I didn't expect you to hide a little deep, and there are such masters!"
"Two ancestors, the army that killed him Da Zhou will have no leader, and then the opportunity for us to counterattack will come," Qiu Tongbai said coldly.
"it is good!"
The two old men rushed forward without saying a word, drew their swords and stabbed Li Cunxiao.
It's just that they were tragic, because the Li Cunxiao they faced was a warrior of Samsung Martial Lord!
"Zheng!"
Li Cunxiao suddenly waved the lance of King Yu in his hand, and saw a huge lance flashing by.
Qiu Tongbai was shocked and turned around to run.
But Li Cunxiao's figure flashed, ran over and grabbed him, threw him on the ground, and said coldly, "Tie him up for me and give it to Your Majesty as a gift!"
"Yes!"
A group of wolf-like soldiers stepped forward and tied him to Qiu Tongbai's terrified roar.
"Report to the general, all members of the royal family of the Tianpeng Kingdom, except the emperor Qiu Tongbai, have been detained."
At this time, the people Li Cunxiao sent to the harem also completed the task and came to return.
Li Cunxiao nodded and said, "Strictly monitor them all and wait for His Majesty to come and send them!"
"Yes!"
Not long after the man went down, Hao Meng, who had an excited face, also came to the main hall. He had already controlled a city gate, and he didn't have so many things for the time being.
"General, now that we have captured the Tianpeng Kingdom and the imperial capital, we might as well take advantage of the victory and pursue the entire Tianpeng Kingdom. In this way, our credit will be the greatest of all the troops," Hao Meng said excitedly.
Capturing the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom means that half of the Tianpeng Kingdom has fallen into their hands. If they can take the other half, it will be a great achievement.
Li Cunxiao shook his head and said, "No, although this is a great achievement, it is not the most correct choice!"
"General, what do you mean..."
"Okay, let's go, I have my own arrangements!"
Li Cunxiao waved his hand. Although he looks brave on the outside, his mind is very transparent.
Today's Tianpeng Kingdom is already in the possession of the Great Zhou Empire. If the Huo Lin Army continues to fight like this, it will occupy too much military merit.
At that time, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction with other legions, which is very detrimental to the unity of the entire imperial army. If you have meat to eat, you must give others a mouthful of soup!
Of course, the most important reason was that he knew that Xiao Chen had already come to the front line in person, and at this moment he couldn't appear to be vying for credit.
...
"Cunxiao did a good job in this battle. Originally, I thought it would take at least a month to win the Tianpeng Kingdom, but now it seems that it will take up to twenty days!"
In front of the imperial capital of the Tianpeng Kingdom, Xiao Chen looked at the city head where the flag of the Huo Lin Army was flying, and said with emotion.
Behind him stood two powerful warrior kings, Zhang Han and Canglang Wang.
