The First Tyrant of Daxia
Chapter 1980: The Battle of the Royal City is about to begin
"You fart!"
Henry VII was furious and shouted, "The First, Third, and Fifth Regiments of the Royal Knights, send out your troops to kill this abominable Emperor of Great Xia!"
Robert was so frightened that he quickly grabbed Henry VII and said, "Your Majesty, this cannot happen! The Emperor of Great Xia is deliberately using words to provoke you to send troops to attack him. This will play into his hands!"
The other ministers also hurriedly pulled the King of Great Britain.
Although Henry VII had a bad temper and was jealous and reckless, he was a man who listened to advice. After hearing the admonitions of Robert and his ministers, he calmed down and rescinded the order.
Qin Yun, who was on the golden chariot, couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he saw this scene.
If Henry VII had sent troops to attack just now, he would have ensured that the enemy would never be able to return!
Unfortunately, I was persuaded to stop.
It seems that the British Empire is not without talented people after the demise of Barry.
"Liu Wanshi!"
"The general is here!"
Qin Yun stroked his chin and said, "I'll give you a chance to make a contribution, do you want it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Wanshi's eyes sparkled and he nodded excitedly.
Qin Yun grinned and said, "Okay, let your army lead the attack on the Great Ying Palace! Are you confident?"
"Full of confidence!" Liu Wanshi held his head high.
Qin Yun nodded: "Pingjianlou, your artillery battalion will provide fire cover, Mu Le, your Shenji battalion will provide flank support."
"Yes!"
Mu Le and Pingjian Tower received the order at the same time.
Order the troops to march!
The war is about to start.
Amid the shouts and cries of killing, Liu Wanshi took the lead, leading 100,000 government troops to the front, followed by the artillery battalion of Pingjian Tower, and on the flanks were Mu Le's Shenjiying troops.
Genos stood on the city wall, his expression calm, his face neither sad nor happy, as deep as the sea, making people confused.
He had fought in too many battles in his life, so facing such a large-scale siege, he was able to remain calm.
"Archers prepare!"
Genos shouted in a deep voice.
The blond-haired and blue-eyed British soldiers raised their bows and arrows and aimed at the Great Xia soldiers who were charging under the city.
Only when they came within range did Genos give the order to shoot.
In an instant, arrows fell like raindrops.
Liu Wanshi had already seen the bows and arrows on the city wall and immediately ordered everyone to raise their shields.
Countless arrows hit the shields, but this round of shooting did not cause too much damage to the soldiers.
"Keep charging!"
Behind the government army, Ping Jianlou led the artillery battalion and had set up hundreds of red cannons.
With a grin, Ping Jianlou shouted, "Brothers, let these blond and blue-eyed Westerners taste the power of the red cannon!"
The next moment, flames spewed out of the black muzzle, followed by a loud noise.
"what!"
Screams were heard from above the palace walls, and many figures were knocked over in the explosion.
"Damn it! Is this the power of the Red Cannon?!"
There were no such things as cannons in the West, and Genos had only heard of them before. But now that he had seen the power of the Red Cannon, his face turned very ugly.
With this level of firepower, it is hard to say how long we can hold out.
But no matter what, he must hold on.
"Keep holding on!"
Genos roared.
At the back of the battlefield, Qin Yun, who was sitting on the golden chariot, saw this scene and said excitedly: "This is the divine power of my Great Xia. Wherever we go, all nations must submit! If they don't submit, then we will do it!"
With the cover of the artillery battalion, Liu Wanshi led the government troops to the city gate.
"Siege vehicles, ram the city gate! There will be a reward for breaking it open! Set up the ladders for me. The first one to reach the city wall will be rewarded with wealth and glory!"
The interests of the people are motivating, and the morale of the government troops suddenly rises, and the siege vehicles rammed the city gates fiercely.
At the same time, long ladders were placed on the city wall, extending upwards, and countless soldiers climbed up.
But they had to face huge rocks and fallen trees dropped from above by British soldiers, and it was very difficult to rush forward.
Genos yelled, "Stab those damn Daxia soldiers to death! Don't let any of them come up!"
Screams were heard under the spears of the British soldiers, and they fell from the ladders and fell to the ground.
However, the Daxia army behind them was fearless and continued to climb, determined to take the top of the city.
At the same time, the siege vehicle was also shot by archers, and the soldiers on both sides were shot and killed. The siege vehicle was unmanned. The soldiers behind rushed forward one after another and continued to hit the city gate.
……
The battle lasted until the Golden Crow sank and the stars and the moon were covered.
Outside the city of Great Britain, corpses were scattered all over the ground and blood flowed like a river.
The ancient royal city was also in ruins, with corpses of British soldiers piled on it and blood splattered on the city walls. Many of the city walls had been destroyed by red cannons, but it still stood firm.
The British Empire's defense was so tenacious that even with the firepower of the Daxia army, they were unable to take down the outer wall of the palace.
Qin Yun had anticipated this, but he did not act hastily. Instead, he ordered the army to retreat and set up camp ten miles away from the British Palace.
Since ancient times, siege warfare has always been a bad strategy.
Although the losses in this siege were less than those of the British Empire, it was not a solution. His enemies were not just the British Empire, but also the Western countries that were eyeing him covetously.
The soldiers of Daxia were all Qin Yun's people. The siege was too brutal, with many casualties, and Qin Yun couldn't bear it.
Qin Yun couldn't help but wonder if there was a better way to take over the British Empire's palace.
In the following days, the siege did not stop and lasted for half a month.
This was certainly because the British Empire had strong defenses, but it was also because Qin Yun did not want to attack with all his strength.
If they launched an all-out attack, the British palace could be breached, but the Daxia soldiers would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Qin Yun did not want to see such a scene.
On this day, General Genos's mansion suddenly received information from outside the city.
Genos looked at the message on the envelope, and his gloomy face finally showed a smile at this moment.
“Great, this is it!”
Genos immediately took the information to find King Henry VII who was accompanying Lady Helen.
Mrs. Helen's eyes were as light blue as the sea, her blonde hair was slightly curly, she still had charm, and her figure was well-proportioned, more attractive than a young woman. She looked even more noble in a gorgeous long dress, and the hint of sadness between her brows made her look even more pitiful, making people want to take good care of her.
Henry VII placed a kiss on Lady Helen's hand and said, "Madam, the general has something to ask me. You should go and rest first."
Mrs. Helen saluted indifferently and then left.
"Your Majesty, I have found the transportation route of the Daxia army. Please dispatch troops to me immediately. I will cut off their transportation supply for you!"
Genos' eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. "As long as we cut off their supplies, such a large army will be in disarray within three to five days. Then it will be time for us to counterattack!"
"Good!" Henry VII was delighted. "I will give you 20,000 royal knights and order you to go and cut off the supply of the Daxia army!"
"Yes!"
Genos received the king's order to mobilize troops and turned to leave.
At night, a cavalry team rushed out of the British city silently under the cover of darkness, disappeared into the dense forest, and disappeared without a trace.
