Chapter 225 The Army Is Like a Demon, Attacking the City
“Boom boom boom”
As the power fed back by Liu Xian merged into their bodies, the aura of many Qing soldiers suddenly surged.
In the end, in terms of the amount of true qi, it was no less than the Qi training realm of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, and the strength was much stronger than the true qi strength of ordinary people.
At the same time, the aura of everyone spread and connected, and the bloody aura rushed up to the sky, and finally turned into a blood cloud, in which a blood-colored giant python of dozens of feet appeared and disappeared.
Feeling the huge power in his body and the power of the blood-colored giant python above, the Qing army generals were originally indifferent, but at this time they couldn't help showing excitement and joy.
“Haha, this time, I will make those Celestial Empire troops come and go.”
After completing this sacrifice, he led the army back to Gaizhou Weicheng.
Along the way, whether it was ordinary people or people who had already cultivated true qi, they were all captivated and retreated to the sides in fear.
However, even so, many people were unable to retreat and were directly killed by the Qing army.
Among them, there were not only Han people, but also Manchu people.
At this time, their minds were filled with bloodthirsty thoughts, and they would kill at the slightest dissatisfaction.
And the people killed by them would often have a blood mist rising from their bodies, which was swallowed up by them. Although it would not increase their strength, the blood evil spirit on their bodies would be strengthened.
This would allow them to mobilize the blood evil spirit to attack, and when forming an army, the blood-colored giant python projection summoned would become more powerful.
And those who were killed would immediately become withered because of the draining of their blood, like a dried corpse that had been dead for a long time.
Seeing this scene that looked like a demon eating people, the people around were all silent, wanting to leave and hide, but they did not dare to move at all, for fear of causing dissatisfaction with the Qing army and then being killed on the spot.
The Qing army generals did not stop their subordinates' behavior.
For him, only the two thousand Qing troops blessed by Liu Xian were his core subordinates.
The others were just a group of slaves and blood food waiting for blood sacrifice.
Once blood sacrifice was needed again, all the people in the city would be sacrifices.
Even if the Celestial Empire army came and they were still defeated, he was even ready to sacrifice the whole city and directly summon Liu Xian to fight against the Celestial Empire army.
Suppressing the idea of wanting to kill now, the Qing army generals began to command their men to take over the city defense.
On the other side, fifty miles west of Gaizhouwei, an army of two hundred people was coming quickly towards Gaizhouwei.
When Li Yaohui, the sentry leader, came to a hilltop, he circulated his internal Qi and looked at the city that was already looming in the distance, and a smile appeared on his face.
After retaking Gaizhouwei in front, the merits he obtained would allow him to go one step further, at least he would be the general leading a thousand people.
"Brothers, speed up a little bit, the Gaizhou City is ahead!
We will celebrate in Gaizhou City today!"
"Okay!"
Everyone agreed in unison, and the true energy in their bodies flowed, and the speed increased a little bit.
A quarter of an hour later, everyone crossed the mountains and finally arrived at Gaizhou City.
The defenders in the city also found everyone's figures and immediately closed the city gate.
As for those who did not have time to enter the city, they did not need to come in.
In fact, facing Li Yaohui and others, many people outside the city were not really afraid.
No matter how strong the Tianchao army is, it must be stronger than those demon-like Qing troops, right?
If the two sides were not about to go to war, I am afraid that many people would have come to welcome them.
Of course, there is another reason for this.
That is, Li Yaohui and others are only two hundred people.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the opponent of those demon-like Qing troops.
If they gather around now, the Tianchao army will be defeated, and they will be liquidated by the Qing army, right?
Therefore, although everyone thought that the Celestial Empire army could wipe out the Qing army, they still fled from here after a period of hesitation.
Li Yaohui and others did not stop everyone's actions.
When they occupied this place, the people here would also be Celestial Empire people.
When they were still six or seven hundred meters away from the city, Li Yaohui shouted loudly.
As the true energy flowed, the voice was clearly transmitted into the city.
"Listen, Jiannu above, we are the thirteenth sentry of the 28th Battalion under the seat of Wang Shi, the general of the Celestial Empire, and we have been ordered to take over Gaizhou Weicheng. Why don't you open the city gate quickly?"
Listening to Li Yaohui's words below, the Qing army generals were angry and their faces turned blue.
He had never seen such a shameless and arrogant person.
Even if this Gaizhou Weicheng originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty, isn't it occupied by them now?
Now this is their city of the Qing Dynasty, why should your Celestial Empire army take over?
Your Celestial Empire is not the Ming Dynasty.
Well, that's not right. Even if it was the Ming Dynasty army, he would not give it up.
Moreover, looking at the Celestial Empire Army below, there were only a few hundred soldiers in a sentry, but they all acted as if it was natural and that it should be so. They completely ignored him and his two thousand soldiers.
This is really outrageous!
"Shoot!"
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh"
Although Li Yaohui and others were still six or seven hundred meters away from the city.
However, the Qing army today was not an ordinary person. After adding the true energy, they could cover the distance of only six or seven hundred meters.
Looking at the bloody and evil spirits surrounding and the arrows shooting at him at high speed, Li Yaohui couldn't help curling his lips.
He knew that these Jiannu would not surrender so easily.
In this case, he would not be polite.
Looking at the arrows coming at him, Li Yaohui shouted fiercely.
"Xuanwu Army Formation, Resist!"
"Hah!"
Following Li Yaohui's order, two hundred soldiers shouted together.
In an instant, the golden red military energy radiated, covering everyone, connecting the true energy in everyone's body, and forming a closely connected military formation with Li Yaohui as the core.
Then, in the military energy above everyone, a black tortoise shadow slowly emerged, and the golden red military energy turned into a light shield that covered everyone.
"Puff puff puff"
The next moment, countless arrows fell.
However, the golden red light shield only swayed slightly, rippling a little, and it had already removed all the power contained in the arrows, including the bloody and evil spirits carried on them, which were also swallowed and melted by the golden red light.
"Brothers, since these Jiannu are unwilling to return the city of our Celestial Empire, then destroy them all."
Looking at the city ahead, Li Yaohui roared fiercely.
"Yes!"
"Clatter, clatter"
The next moment, everyone quickly took out many iron frames, barrels and other parts from their backpacks.
If anyone saw this, they would definitely be shocked.
They admitted that the military backpacks of the Celestial Empire's army were indeed not small.
However, they were definitely not enough to put down a three- to five-meter-long barrel.
Watching everyone quickly assemble the mortar, Li Yaohui couldn't help but sigh that the craftsmen in the Ordnance Bureau of the Ministry of Industry were really talented.
With the new guns and space backpacks, they were no longer afraid of long-distance marches.
That's right, it was a space backpack.
After the dynasty evolved many magical runes, someone finally developed this kind of space backpack based on the Hutian magical power and related magical runes.
It's still about space expansion.
It just changed from magical power to engraving magical runes.
It was just because it was developed not long ago, so the space could not be expanded to a large extent, and the weight carried did not change.
For example, the standard military space backpack is about nine cubic meters.
Of course, compared with the past, it is much stronger.
The only thing to consider is whether the soldiers can carry such heavy supplies.
After all, even if they have reached the Qi Refining Realm, their strength is not unlimited.
However, they can still carry about a thousand pounds of supplies.
And what they carry the most is naturally arms, which is much more than food and water.
Not only are there a large number of firearms and ammunition, but also artillery shells and cannons, which have been disassembled and stored separately.
Wait until the battle, and then assemble them.
As for the assembly of guns and cannons, everyone is naturally familiar with it. In just a moment, one cannon after another has been assembled.
Seeing this, Li Yaohui immediately gave a loud order without saying a word.
"Fire!"
"Boom boom boom"
The next moment, dozens of artillery pieces fired simultaneously, killing and wounding the Qing army stationed in Gaizhou Weicheng, who wailed and screamed.
Even though they were blessed by the blood-colored giant python, they could not withstand the fierce artillery fire.
The Qing army generals who were bombed and could not raise their heads could not help but curse.
These damn Celestial Empire troops are too unethical. If they have the ability, they should fight face to face.
At this time, he suddenly realized that those damn Celestial Empire troops seemed to like long-range artillery bombardment the most when fighting. Even if their strength was improved, it was useless, and they did not even have the opportunity to fight the Celestial Empire troops head-on.
For a while, the Qing army generals felt extremely depressed.
After a long while, the shells that fell beside them gradually became scarce, and finally the explosions stopped.
"Huh~! It's finally over!"
The Qing army generals breathed a sigh of relief, and a flash of blood flashed in their eyes.
Next, let them give the Celestial Empire troops a surprise.
The Qing army general stood up and immediately ordered the remaining Qing army to assemble.
"Fight"
"Pa Pa Pa"
Then, before the Qing army generals gave the order to fight, they heard a burst of crisp gunshots from below the city.
"Puff puff puff"
In an instant, hundreds of soldiers were killed by bullets.
Even the Qing army generals were hit in the arm.
Looking at the bullet stuck in his arm, the Qing army general gritted his teeth.
"This damn Celestial Empire army is really too despicable."
Ordinary firearms are indeed difficult to cause fatal damage to him.
However, the other Qing army is not so good.
"Boom!"
When the gunshots gradually subsided and they were about to stand up again, they heard a violent explosion under the city wall.
"Charge, kill into the city."
"Damn it!"
Hearing the sound from below the city, the Qing army generals could guess without thinking that it must be the Celestial Empire army that blew up the city gate.
At this moment, they no longer need to stay on the city wall.
"Kill! Everyone, get off the city wall and kill those damned Celestial Empire troops."
"Kill!"
"Pah pah pah"
Looking at the Qing army coming down from above, Li Yaohui and others raised their guns and shot without hesitation.
Close combat?
Wait until you rush over, or they run out of bullets.
Their majesty said that if they could destroy the enemy from a distance, then they should not let anyone rush in close.
Facing the new firearms of Li Yaohui and others, the Qing army had little resistance at all. As soon as they showed up, they were shot dead one after another.
After all, the Qing army was less than a thousand.
Looking at the hundreds of Qing soldiers slowly gathering, the Qing generals felt blood dripping in their hearts.
He knew that the firearms of the Celestial Empire Army were sharp, but he did not expect that they were so sharp.
The two sides did not even come into contact, and they had already lost most of their own side.
This was because they were blessed by Liu Xian and their strength was greatly improved.
Otherwise, would they have been completely wiped out now?
Damn it!
Listening to the gunshots coming one after another and watching a Qing army fall, the Qing generals gritted their teeth again.
