Chapter 467 The City Is Broken!
The Xiantian worshiper is dead?
How could Beidi Diquan not be shocked?
Fortunately, the Mongolian noble treated Beidi Diquan well on weekdays, so he could still stand firm and stand up straight in this situation.
However.
Before he could say anything, he saw the man in front of him lightly raised his hand and slapped it.
In an instant, it seemed that a dragon roar resounded in the prefectural mansion.
"Roar~!"
Under the terrifying palm power of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, more than a dozen servants led by Beidi Diquan were instantly turned into ashes, and no bones were left!
This scene frightened the servants who were lucky enough not to be affected, and a chill surged in their hearts.
I don't know who was the first to put down the weapon in his hand and fled, triggering a chain reaction.
In a moment!
The many figures that were originally blocking Lin Chen disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Lin Chen shook his head slightly, with a playful look on his face.
The Mongolian governor, who learned that there was a powerful enemy attacking his mansion, was also panicked at this moment.
He knew how powerful these Central Plains warriors were, otherwise he would not have recruited so many Northern warriors as guards when he took office.
"No, they must be coming for me!"
The governor was not a fool, and he understood it immediately.
His face turned pale, and he didn't care about packing anything, and he was about to leave the mansion to escape.
"If I want to survive now, I must escape to the barracks in the city!"
He knew very well that only by hiding in the army could he save his life from such martial arts masters.
Of course, this idea might be feasible for others, but it was wishful thinking for this Mongolian nobleman.
You know, at this moment, the entire governor's mansion is covered by Lin Chen's six senses!
A mere mortal, still wants to escape from the hands of the Purple Mansion Taoist?
It's just a foolish dream!
So, under the astonished and terrified gaze of the Xiangyang governor, Lin Chen's figure floated over.
In the end, the desire to survive prevailed, and the governor wanted to use high positions and generous salaries to lure Lin Chen to surrender.
Lin Chen heard this, smiled calmly, and explained his identity.
"What?"
The face of the Xiangyang governor changed drastically when he heard Lin Chen's introduction. "You... you are... the King of Tang?!"
Good guy.
Before the Xiangyang governor could say anything, Lin Chen had already raised his hand slightly and clenched it.
There was only a crisp sound of "click".
The governor's fat neck broke with a sound, and then he collapsed to the ground.
Lin Chen patted the non-existent dust in his hands, turned around and left, leaving only astonishment and fear.
On the other side,
the brothers Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun were surprised to find that this operation was unusually smooth.
They arrived at the water gate under Xiangyang City unimpeded all the way as if they were in an unmanned place, and they did not encounter any resistance!
"Quick! Break the water gate quickly!"
The Xiangyang water gate has a solid iron fence, which is difficult to break with ordinary tools.
However, under Lin Chen's special explosive barrel, these fences were as fragile as paper and disappeared in an instant.
Bang!
A warship took the lead and crashed directly into the dilapidated water gate.
As expected, the water gate collapsed under the impact, opening the passage for the Tang army's navy to enter the city.
So far, there is no obstacle for the Tang army's navy to enter the city!
At this moment, the new commander Wang Yuan stood at the bow, his face solemn and his eyes firm.
He stepped steadily on the crossbar and led the warriors into Xiangyang City without hesitation.
This year, for Wang Yuan, was as incredible as a dream.
Originally, he was just a refugee struggling to survive in the troubled times, but he didn't expect to join the Tang Wang army by mistake, and followed Lin Chen all the way south, experienced wind and rain, and finally reborn from the ashes.
Wang Yuan, who had experienced countless life-and-death tests, was no longer an ordinary refugee, but a fierce general in the Tang army.
"Kill!" Wang Yuan gave an order.
Accompanied by the passionate and high-pitched military trumpet sound that shook the sky, the Tang army that landed rushed straight to the Mongolian military camp in the city like a tiger descending from the mountain.
Although the thousands of Mongolian and Han soldiers defending the city resisted tenaciously, most of the Mongolian soldiers were still stationed in the military camp in the city, unprepared.
Therefore, although the total strength of the Tang army that raided Xiangyang City this time, together with the navy soldiers, was less than 40,000, they successfully seized the initiative with unexpected tactics.
More importantly, the enemy army was leaderless at this time, and the incident happened suddenly, which caught them off guard.
Look, the Tang army has surrounded the military camp, and the Mongolian soldiers in the camp are still like headless flies, not knowing what happened.
The Tang army took the opportunity to form a formation and rush into the camp, and all they saw along the way were Mongolian soldiers in dishevel.
Without waiting for them to react, he raised his sword and chopped them off.
These battle-hardened Mongolian soldiers, without any command or preparation, could only become lambs to be slaughtered.
In a moment, corpses were everywhere on the battlefield, and most Mongolian soldiers covered their wounds and fell unwillingly in a pool of blood.
If it were a field battle, even if Lin Chen led the army himself, it would not be easy to fight against 60,000 Mongolian elites with 40,000 infantry.
However, tonight, the Tang army won with fewer troops and successfully occupied Xiangyang City.
As the night fell, the people of Xiangyang welcomed the dawn in fear.
They walked out of their homes and saw corpses all over the streets and blood flowing like a river.
Among these corpses, in addition to the soldiers of both the Tang and Mongolian sides, there were also ordinary people.
But most of them were idle people who tried to take advantage of the fire.
The Tang army followed the orders of the King of Tang and killed such people on the spot.
However, for most of the people in Xiangyang City, what they saw was a different scene:
Teams of soldiers in black armor and with serious and indifferent expressions were silently collecting corpses.
And most of the owners of these corpses turned out to be the Mongols who were arrogant and domineering on weekdays!
In sharp contrast, the flag raised by this army had a big "Tang" character painted on it!
What was even more unexpected for these Xiangyang people was that Xiangyang City had changed its gates overnight!
This sudden change made the little people at the bottom of society worried.
They were afraid that the Tang army would do something like massacre and looting.
After all, most ancient armies were like this, and there were few with strict military discipline.
It is not an empty saying that bandits pass like combs and soldiers pass like combs.
Lin Chen knew this well.
So since the establishment of the Tang army, he has paid special attention to military discipline.
Under his iron-fisted governance, the military discipline of the Tang army has been greatly improved.
Even if some unbelieving Tang soldiers attempted to take advantage of the chaos to cause chaos, they were quickly captured and beheaded in public!
