The battle is fierce!

The Southwest Army fought all the way from Hanzhong to the capital, and it was the time when morale was high, although there was a truce for almost two months in the middle, which led to a lot of sharp spirits, but on the first day of attacking the city today, they successfully broke through the gate of the capital, and these Southwest Army immediately cheered up.

This...... But the gate of the capital!

If you get in, your gang will be the "founding heroes", and when the time comes, you will be prosperous and rich, and you will have it at your fingertips!

Therefore, the vanguard battalion of the Southwest Army rushed in first, followed by the two most powerful battalions of the Ningzhou Army, which also poured into the capital from the West City Gate!

Behind these two was an integrated shield array, and behind the shield array was the most important firearms battalion of the Southwest Army.

Whether it is the Hanzhou Army or the Ningzhou Army, they all have their own firearms battalions, and they are not small.

The firearms battalion of the Hanzhou Army is probably more than 3,000 people, and the firearms battalion of the Ningzhou Army is a little smaller, about 2,000 people, but all of them are the core and most trustworthy soldiers of their respective hearts!

At this time, the number of Li Shuo's Ningzhou Army has far exceeded that of the Hanzhou Army, but the number of firearms battalions has never increased, which means that the Ningzhou Army has accepted and surrendered the new recruits along the way, and none of them have been incorporated into the firearms battalion!

Even Li Shuo was reluctant to throw his own firearms battalion into the capital, and the number of people in this firearms battalion was about eight or nine hundred, of which three or four hundred were firecrackers, and the rest were the unique "grenadiers" of the Southwest Army!

In order to train these throwers, the southwest made a large number of wooden blocks similar to the weight of the thunder, and handed them over to the throwers of the Ningzhou Army and the Hanzhou Military Firearms Battalion for training, each of these throwers had to throw more than 200 times a day, and the hit rate was extremely high.

Now the Hanzhou army has about 1,500 throwers, and the Ningzhou army only has about 1,000, but each of these throwers is carefully selected, and basically everyone can throw the clay pot to about 50 steps, and the accuracy can be guaranteed!

These grenadiers, when they advance head-on with plenty of thunder, will become the enemy's worst nightmare!

Eight hundred soldiers of the Ningzhou Military Firearms Battalion, under the escort of shield soldiers, poured into the capital in this way.

Originally, there was no need for the Ningzhou army to fight so hard, after all, Li Xin had already greeted Li Shuo, and the attack on the surface was just a feint, in order to create conditions for Li Xin's backhand in the capital, but Li Shuo stubbornly wanted to try whether the Ningzhou army at this time could hit the imperial city head-on!

Hundreds of firearms battalion soldiers, the destructive power is very terrifying, and it didn't take long for a violent explosion to come from the capital!

And the forbidden army in the capital, although they were taken aback by these southwest troops who suddenly came in, but after all, Chong Xuantong was a veteran general who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he quickly reacted and began to command his forbidden army to counterattack.

Although the west city gate is wide enough, there are not too many people in for a while, and at this time, the imperial court also has a thunderstorm, and they are not completely powerless to fight back in the face of firearms in the southwest.

What's more, firearms at this stage, far from reaching the point of crushing cold weapons, archery is a subject that the forbidden army soldiers must practice every day, some of the forbidden soldiers who are born with strong arm strength, can pull away two stones and three stones of the hard bow, and can penetrate the iron armor within fifty steps under the full, and the destructive power is very terrifying!

And in the era of cold weapons, you can rely on strength and killing to eat, naturally there are people who practice this from childhood to adulthood, take Ye Mao as an example, he can easily open a five-stone bow at the age of twenty, and his ancestor Ye Sheng was even more of a thousand enemies on the battlefield when he was young!

In the same way, under the number of the forbidden army, it is not uncommon for strongmen to be able to shoot a few stone bows, these people can threaten the safety of the firearms battalion soldiers by shooting arrows from a distance, and once they are armored and break into the army, it will bring extremely serious consequences!

Therefore, although after the Southwest Army entered the capital, it directly advanced to the east of the city, but after the initial panic, the forbidden army also organized a resistance formation, and the speed of the Ningzhou Army's advance decreased sharply in an instant!

The number of the Forbidden Army was too many.

Although they were dying all the time, they could still easily block the speed of the Ningzhou army's advance, and at the same time, the Ningzhou army officers and soldiers began to suffer a large number of casualties.

After two hours of fierce fighting between the two sides in the city, the Ningzhou army advanced a total distance of less than five miles, but it had already suffered more than 6,000 casualties! Books.com

At the same time, under firearms, weapons of mass destruction, the number of casualties among the forbidden forces has increased, exceeding 10,000.

Li Shuo, the chief general of the Ningzhou Army, also entered the capital from the West Gate at this time, and the Ningzhou general was expressionless and said coldly: "Those who have not been ordered by this general, those who take a step back will be killed!" ”

"Kill the enemy on the battlefield today, and a head will be rewarded with five times, and you can receive money after the war!"

"Those who die under the firearms of the firearms camp are counted in the firearms camp, and the reward is divided equally!"

This is an era when ten or twenty yuan can buy a living person in the tooth shop, forty or fifty yuan can buy a murderer, and five yuan is already very rich.

The officers and men of the Ningzhou Army suddenly became excited, and the speed of advancement suddenly accelerated!

The prosperous capital in the past is now full of devastation.

Although the common people are hiding in their respective workshops, and no one dares to show their heads, the battlefield has no eyes, and some heavenly thunders will be thrown into the courtyards of the common people if they are not careful.

Every moment someone dies again.

The general of the forbidden army, Chong Xuantong, sat at the forefront of the command, the general of the Zhuang family did not have a trace of expression on his face, and his voice was cold: "Fangshan Zhichong Mansion, the people of Pingshan Zhichong Mansion make up for it, they are not many, at this rate, at most when they hit Shen, these people will be unable to continue." ”

When the two people from the Zhichong Mansion heard the general's order, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and rushed towards the Ningzhou army.

They were greeted by thunderbolts, round lead bullets, and the red-eyed Ningzhou army.

On the battlefield here, there are corpses everywhere that have been fought, but Liushufang, Ningdefang, Yonglefang and the Imperial City in the north of the city can only hear the sound of rumbling explosions now, and they don't know what happened on the front line for the time being.

A young eunuch of Tianmu Prison ran into Weiyang Palace in embarrassment and knelt tremblingly in front of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty, the thief has entered Dachengfang!"

The Son of Heaven was expressionless, and waved his hand: "I know." ”

"Let's find out and report again."

After a while, another soldier from Tianmu Jian knelt in Weiyang Palace, and his voice trembled: "Your Majesty......"

"The anti-thief has hit Huirenfang!"

The Son of Heaven took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

"I ...... Got it. ”

"Go down and explore ......"

……

"Your Majesty, the traitor has hit Xuanpingfang!"

"The rebel entered the ...... of the Benevolence and Righteousness Workshop"
