Apocalypse Empire.

Just when Cheng Mu was determined to fight Zhu Di for the final battle, the army led by Li Shimin himself also arrived at the border of the country.

In the past few days, news from the Ming Empire has been pouring into his hands like paper flowers.

At this time, his brows were completely wrinkled together.

It's so difficult!

"Your Majesty! The last general asks for his crime and meritorious deeds!"

Yan Changyun is here again.

The last time he was defeated, only a few remnants of the million Chang'an army fled back to the Tang Empire.

but!

"In this battle, you either win or die."

This is Li Shimin's last ultimatum to Yan Changyun. If it wasn't for Yan Changyun's high reputation among the rangers of the Tang Dynasty, it would be easy to do things.

Otherwise, this Yan Changyun would have been dragged to the Meridian Gate and beheaded long ago.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

At this time, Yan Changyun was full of confidence.

Behind him, there are not only 80 million Rangers of the Tang Dynasty, but also a large group of powerful people.

Changsun Wu, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Shangguan Waner...

And that Yuan Tiangang, the Sage of the Tang Dynasty, who made people feel extremely at ease standing there!

In the previous battle, Li Chunfeng was injured and retired, and he has not fully recovered yet. So to be on the safe side, Li Shimin asked Yuan Tiangang to hold the line.

Yuan Tiangang doesn't need to take action, but the most important thing now is morale and military spirit.

But when Li Shimin ordered the attack, a guard suddenly came to report.

"Your Majesty! It's not good!"

"People from the Apocalypse Empire said that if His Majesty dares to take a step forward, he will cut off one of the prince's fingers."

"Take ten steps, and cut off one of the prince's arms!"

Although the Great Tang Empire is coming in menacingly now, the prince Li Zhi is in the hands of the Apocalypse Empire.

As long as Li Shimin dares to move, Cheng Mu will dare to kill him!

"Snapped!"

Facing the threat of the Apocalypse Empire, Li Shimin smashed the table to pieces with one punch.

This Apocalypse Empire is too deceptive.

"Hmph! Do you think Li Zhi will make me shrink back? It's absolutely impossible!"

Daming is going to die. If he, Li Shimin, really watched the Apocalypse Empire annex Daming, then his own Great Tang would follow in the footsteps of the Ming Empire.

The Apocalypse Empire with only two "provinces" is so powerful, who else can resist the Apocalypse Empire with three "provinces"?

In terms of the interests of the country and the life of his son, Li Shimin chose the future of the Tang Empire!

"kill!"

 …

"kill!"

The army of the Tang Empire entered the country, and the army led by Cheng Mu also arrived at Nanyang Mansion.

Here, the Ming Empire hoarded tens of millions of troops.

There are Zhu Di's newly recruited army, as well as rangers and mobs who are not afraid of death.

Zhu Di knew that Zhengzhou was behind Nanyang Mansion. Once Zhengzhou falls, the Jinan Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion behind will be completely exposed to Cheng Mu's troops.

Once Jinan or Taiyuan are lost, Shuntianfu (the capital) will be an isolated city.

At that time, even if Zhu Di doesn't want to perish, there is no way to retreat.

Was driven into Liaodong? Drive into Nurgan Dusi?

How is that any different from a savage?

The land of Ming Dynasty is indeed very vast, but only the Central Plains and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River can be called a prosperous place.

After Shuntian Mansion? That is a barbaric wild land!

Could it be that he, Zhu Di, is going to a wild place to survive in the wilderness?

"Push them down!"

Sitting in the dragon tent, Cheng Mu personally directed the battle.

Zhang Qi's National Defense Army is the main force in the siege.

After Cheng Mu gave an order, a steady stream of soldiers of the National Defense Army rushed forward.

They are a newly formed army, and they cannot compare with the old army in terms of military discipline. But their advantage is that their momentum is like a rainbow.

Encouraged by Cheng Mu, millions of soldiers of the National Defense Army rushed under the city wall in a short time.

No matter what stones, logs, oil pans, golden juice...

As long as soldiers who have entered the ranks, they have a little self-protection ability in the face of these obstacles.

Even if someone is unlucky and dies under a log or an arrow.

But the vast majority of people still rushed outside the city gate.

Looking at the extremely heavy gate, the little chieftain winked.

Immediately, someone ran forward with several black and round objects in their arms.

This is a bomb designed and manufactured by Tina, the vice lord of the blacksmith city in China. Although the middle is only filled with black gunpowder, its power is comparable to a full-strength strike of a strong man on the border.

If it weren't for the difficulty of manufacturing, there would be no qualified barrel.

Otherwise, Cheng Mu would have used this kind of bomb on artillery long ago.

Moreover, it is thousands of miles away from the Blacksmith City of the Tianqi Empire to the current Nanyang Mansion of the Ming Empire.

Pulling up a few cannons is not realistic.

Therefore, the bomb can only be used alone at present.

"ignition."

Then, under the gaze of the leader, several black bombs were ignited.

In an instant, everyone outside the city gate evacuated far away.

Compared with the densely populated seas in other places, this place has become a forbidden area.

In the next second, under everyone's attention.

Rumble!

Under the thick Nanyang city gate, a violent black smoke suddenly gushed out.

When the smoke and dust billowed, everyone could still see the debris of the city gate splashing.

next second.

Rumble!

There was another loud bang.

At this time, the tower above the city gate suddenly collapsed. The defenders above did not know how many fell to their deaths.

"This power is comparable to the full blow of a powerful person in the back of the country."

Seeing that just a few bombs had such power, Cheng Mu nodded in satisfaction.

Indeed, this world restricts new types of gunpowder and technological weapons. But black gunpowder is within the approval of heaven and earth.

These bombs not only blew up the gate of Nanyang City, but also blew up the shield of Nanyang City.

How can this kind of power be comparable to the powerhouses of the general level?

"As long as a suitable artillery is manufactured, gunpowder will also become a key force on the battlefield in the future."

At this moment, Cheng Mu thought of a lot.

As long as a qualified cannon that can withstand such power is produced, then whoever is arrogant will be bombarded in the future!

He, Cheng Mu, had imagined that he would one day become an excellent gun king!

battlefield.

The city gate was blown up, and the shield of the city was blown up.

At this moment, the defenders in the city finally panicked.

They wanted to rely on the strong city walls of Nanyang Mansion to deal with Cheng Muduo for a few days. But they didn't want to, they didn't hold on for a day.

"Haha! Brothers killed the enemy!"

"Come on! Your Majesty is watching us from behind, let us show the momentum of the National Guard!"

"Mere ants, I can destroy them with one sword!"

At this moment, millions of soldiers of the National Defense Army showed their weapons and showed their murderous intent.

How can a city wall that is only ten meters high~lightnovelpub.net~ stop them?

First-class or top powerhouse, that is a leap forward.

If it is below first-class, then charge from the gap in the city gate.

The two to three million Ming Empire soldiers in the city are not their all-in-one enemy!

At this time, when everyone can resist the coercion of the strongest, the military soul is not so important.

Now the greatest role of the military soul of the Ming Empire army may be to resist the most powerful people on Cheng Mu's side.

And now, have Guan Hai and the others made a move?

not at all.

This is Elder Li's battle, and it is Elder Li showing the strength of the National Defense Army to Cheng Mu.

If lost? Can't conquer this mere Nanyang City?

That Zhang Qi might as well apologize with death!
