Chapter 1744: Break the city easily
After absorbing the five million army of the Barrow Empire, Tang Tian led a full six million army towards the territory of the Barrow Empire. The army of six million, black and oppressive, stretched for hundreds of miles, mighty forward, and the earth trembled.
The army of six million marched at full speed for five days, and came to the city closest to the direction of Xuanwang City in the Barrow Empire.
More than a month has passed, and the news that the troops sent by the Barrow Empire have not been able to pass back the news that they have been absorbed by Tang Tian, which is not to say that the Barrow Empire does not care about these troops, but it felt bad at the first time when it lost contact, and sent investigators to investigate the disappearance of the five million army, but no matter how many people came, they were not able to pass back any news, where did those people go? Naturally, he was killed by Tang Tian, no one wanted to find out any news to go back, of course, among the five million army that was recruited, there were also those who pretended to surrender and wanted to pass the news back, and they were also cleared by Tang Tian, as far as his eyes could see, every move of millions of people was under Tang Tian's observation, and it was almost impossible for anyone to make any small moves.
Therefore, more than a month has passed, when Tang Tian came to this border city of the Barrow Empire with a mighty army of six million, he had not received any information here, and it was not until the soldiers came to the city that he reacted.
The Barrow Empire is just a big force in this small world, far from being able to compare with the power of the big world, and the population of this marginal city is only a few million, not even a fraction of the population of the Yasukuni border city that was destroyed in the big world.
"Sweeping the entire small world, let's start with this border city of the Barrow Empire," Tang Tian said to himself as he stood in the middle of the army and looked at the city called Iron Salt City that was formed across the earth in front of him.
The reason why it is called Iron Salt City is because there was an iron ore vein and a salt well outside the city of the Barrow Empire in history, which is the origin of the name, of course. Today, both iron ore and salt wells have been mined.
"Zhao Qiang, lead your second legion, take this Iron Salt City, quickly control this city, Du Guang, and lead the people of the Third Army to bypass the Iron Salt City to the front to set up defenses. lest the Barrow Empire send troops to the rescue", under this iron salt city, Tang Tian immediately ordered.
"Obey the order of Your Majesty Xià ......", Du Guang and Zhao Qiang took the order, quickly organized the army to move, divided into two groups, Du Guang took the people of the Third Legion to separate, bypassed the Iron Salt City and went towards the interior of the Barrow Empire, while Zhao Qiang took the army of the Second Legion and began to attack towards the Iron Salt City.
War. In this way, it came here suddenly, there is no so-called pre-war mobilization and negotiation, but a naked strong attack with a big and small posture, in today's Tang Tian, a lot of unnecessary steps can be omitted, and directly send a large army to attack the past, strong crushing, anyone who dares to block will be crushed.
"Report ....... Lord of the city, a large army suddenly appeared outside the city. The visual inspection is about six million, and at this time it has begun to attack our Tieyan City", in the Tieyan City City Lord's Mansion, he suddenly remembered an eager voice, which suddenly made the City Lord's Mansion, which was originally singing and dancing, jump up.
"Panic, open the formation. Keep them out, send troops to defend against the enemy, find out who the other side is, and by the way, send someone to inform the rear and let the troops from above come down. Damn, who is so bold to dare to attack the city of my Barrow Empire, I am impatient", after the voice of the report sounded, in the city lord's mansion, a scolding voice sounded, and a middle-aged man in disheveled clothes ran out with a big belly.
In the place where he came out, he could faintly hear the sound of a warbler and a warbler, obviously this guy didn't realize that he was still enjoying himself now that Tieyan City was surrounded by a large army.
......Boom, at this time, the entire city shook, a blue light shield appeared out of thin air, protecting the city, and the defense formation of Iron Salt City was opened, at this time, the city lord breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, there was a shocking shout outside the city, followed by a torrent of arrows that covered the sky, pouring towards the defensive formation of Iron Salt City, a single arrow may not exist at all for the formation of Iron Salt City, but millions of arrows poured together, but it made the formation of Iron Salt City tremble, as if the strong embankment was being washed away by a surging flood, and it could collapse at any time.
"Kill ......", countless people outside shouted, arrows poured, the formation of Iron Salt City trembled and roared, millions of people in the city were at a loss, they never realized that such a thing would happen, you know, in the past, it was the Barrow Empire that attacked others.
"Where are the Guards? Follow me up to the city wall", the city lord quickly got dressed, roared, and the whole person rose into the sky, galloping towards the city wall in the distance, when he rose into the air, in the city lord's mansion, tens of thousands of soldiers in silver armor followed behind him, like a torrent to the city wall.
When the city lord of Tieyan City saw that it had become a dense army of terror, he was suddenly startled, and said in his heart What kind of army is this, why is there no news in advance, as the lord of the city, he quickly packed up his mood, looked at the army outside the city and shouted: "Who are you, dare to come to attack my Tieyan City, it is rare not to know that this is the territory of the Barrow Empire?"
"It's the city lord of Iron Salt City who is talking? I am Zhao Qiang, the commander of the Second Legion of Xuanwang City, and I am here to crusade against the Barrow Empire on the orders of His Majesty, and I advise you to close the formation quickly, open the city gate and surrender, if not, when the city is broken, it will be the time when your fate falls", among the troops outside the city, Zhao Qiang looked at the city lord on the wall of Tieyan City and said loudly.
"Xuanwang City? I haven't heard of it, where did the army come from? Listening to the tone of the other party, it is not like a nobody, if you dare to attack the Barrow Empire, you must have something to rely on, why have I never heard of it"? Hearing Zhao Qiang's words outside the city, the city lord said secretly in his heart.
"City Lord, do you remember not long ago, an army of my Barrow Empire passed through here and headed for a distance? They seem to be going to crusade against some Xuanwang City, and you see, city lord, most of the troops below are wearing the standard equipment of my Barrow Empire, and they have all rebelled"? At this time, one of the guards beside the city lord whispered beside him.
After being reminded by his subordinates. The city lord was shocked, isn't it, most of the troops that are attacking the city are simply the troops of the Barrow Empire, this scene is completely beyond the city lord's expectations.
"Quick, let the rear be informed. Let's just say that the Iron Salt City is in crisis, let the empire send a large army to support", the city lord was taken aback, and immediately ordered that in the face of the attack of millions of troops, he knew that this Iron Salt City would not last long.
"Oh no, Lord City, there is also a large army behind our city. About 3.5 million have cut off our back road, and we have lost contact with the Imperial side", at this time, a soldier hurriedly ran to report.
"What? It's not good, the other party is prepared, and wants to take down my Iron Salt City in one fell swoop and tear open a gap in the imperial defense line. We must not let the other party succeed, we must stick to it. Such a big thing has happened here, the empire will definitely get the news, and when the time comes, a large army will come, and the empire will also send strong people to come, and the other party is simply looking for death", and his heart was shocked again. The lord of the city immediately gritted his teeth and ordered.
"Kill ......", below the city, among the three million army, Zhao Qiang found that the other party did not react at all after he finished speaking, and immediately roared. The sound came out mightily, and the three million army continued to attack.
Iron Salt City has the protection of the formation, and the army cannot enter the city without breaking the formation, and the Iron Salt City is like a turtle hiding in the turtle shell at this time, and the turtle shell can only be broken to eat the fresh meat inside.
And at this time, the army of the Barrow Empire in the Iron Salt City is also gathering, as the border city of the Barrow Empire, there is an army of one million people stationed here all the year round, but the Barrow Empire was too strong before and did not encounter such a war.
"There's not a lot of time to spend here, if it takes too much time to even a small Iron Salt City, what years and months will it take to completely control the entire small world", Tang Tian said to himself with a frown.
Facing the Iron Salt City in the distance, Tang Tian stretched out his hand a little, and a sword light tore through the void, and the formation that Zhao Qiang's millions of troops could not break was torn apart as lightly as paper paste under Tang Tian's sword qi.
Zhao Qiang, who was attacking Tieyan City, was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was Tang Tian who made a move, and immediately shouted: "Kill, kill into Tieyan City, and kill those who resist on the spot."
With a roar in his mouth, Zhao Qiang took the lead in rushing to the sky, rushing towards the interior of Tieyan City, the army followed, and flocked to Tieyan City like locusts.
"How could it be ...... so quickly", on the city wall, the city lord of Iron Salt City muttered to himself with dull eyes at the first time the formation was broken, in his original thoughts, this formation could hold out for at least a few days even if it was attacked by millions of troops, waiting for the arrival of the Empire's follow-up reinforcements, but how long would the battle last? In just a few minutes, the formation was broken, and Tie Yan had already fallen into a melee, facing the influx of millions of troops, the city lords of Rao is Tie Yan City felt a burst of fear.
"You're the lord of the city? Surrender immediately, I can spare your life", Zhao Qiang came to the front of the city lord of Tieyan City surrounded by a group of pro-guards, and pointed the big knife in his hand at him and said coldly.
"You dream, dare to attack my Barrow Empire, you just wait to be crushed to pieces by the imperial army", the city lord of Tieyan City roared angrily, a red long sword appeared in his hand, and with a wave towards Zhao Qiang, a red sword light swept through.
"Stubborn, kill ......", Zhao Qiang snorted coldly, and roared angrily with the long knife in his hand.
......, Zhao Qiang's voice fell, and a green longbow piercing cloud bow appeared in the hands of his personal guards, opened the bow and arrows, and the cloud-piercing arrows turned into cyan storms and swept over, shattering the sword light, tearing the city lord of Tieyan City and hundreds of personal guards around him to pieces.
The Cloud Piercing Bow can already threaten the lives of a powerhouse at the Wheel of Life level with a single handle, and the strength of this Iron Salt City City Lord itself is not yet at the order level, how can it withstand the attack of tens of thousands of Cloud Piercing Arrows?
This battle came quickly and subsided quickly, from the beginning to the end of the battle, it took only half an hour to end, Tieyan City was completely taken, and the army of Xuanwang City killed 300,000 troops of the Barrow Empire, which is still in the army of Xuanwang City now Most of the troops of the original Barrow Empire, in the face of their own compatriots are reluctant to start with Ang, otherwise, this result will at least be doubled.
In the first battle of Tieyan City, 300,000 enemy troops were killed, 700,000 enemy troops were captured, and the army was stationed in to control all critical passes, and Tieyan City was completely controlled by Tang Tian in just one hour.
At this point, the huge Barrow Empire was torn off a piece of meat by Tang Tian, of course, for the huge Barrow Empire, the small Iron Salt City was just a piece of dead skin on the body, which was insignificant, but for Tang Tian, this was the first battle against the Barrow Empire, which was of great significance.
"Your Majesty, in Tieyan City, all the officials and their families have been escorted to the City Lord's Mansion, a total of 80,000 people, please make a decision", in the Tieyan City City Lord's Mansion, Tang Tian sat on the throne that originally belonged to the City Lord, and Zhao Qiang came to report.
On the square of the City Lord's Mansion, tens of thousands of people were sealed and cultivated, and they knelt on the ground, waiting in horror to meet their fate.
Tang Tian frowned and pondered, it was really not a good decision to give orders to deal with these officials and their families in the original Iron Salt City, if they were all killed, they would definitely continue to kill after the city was defeated in the future, once the killing ring was opened, they would not be able to stop, but if they kept killing, who would dare to accept their own rule after that? The whole world will oppose it, and even the army may mutinied, but if they are not killed and let them continue to be in power, I am afraid that these people will not be obedient at all, trouble!
"Seal them up first, take care of them all, and make a decision after Bai Yunfei arrives with the personnel," Tang Tian pondered for a moment and said, not making a rash decision.
At this time, Tang Tiancai found that it was a troublesome thing to not have a person who was good at layout and palpitations around him, when he was on earth, when he encountered such a thing, whether it was Wang Deming or Song Ci, he could handle it well, and he didn't have to worry about it at all, at this time it was his turn, only to know that many things were not so easy to decide, there were too many things to consider, and everything could not be ...... by his own mood.
