Except for the one or two hundred escort troops left behind, all the Qiongzhou Army was dispatched.
Few reservations were made.
The Fuso Army also saw the opponent's strategic intention of giving it a go, and naturally became more vigilant.
It is not difficult for them to defend the city gate with ten times the strength.
However, their methods are somewhat limited for high-altitude defense.
Apart from evading accordingly, there is almost no other way but to accept it.
For Qi Yu, this battle is also a brand new attempt.
Previously, hot air balloons were only used as surprise troops to fight for local areas, and no large-scale air strikes were tried. This attempt can be used as an example reference.
Regardless of the final effect, it can be used as a practical reference to guide the future development of the Air Force.
Let’s talk about the current war.
The impact on the ground is still the same as before, there are not many changes and new routines.
The remaining puppet troops were basically depleted after two waves of attacks.
At the same time as this process was going on, the hot-air balloon army also began to carry out large-scale air strikes.
The air-to-ground battle begins in earnest.
Relying on the principle of sparing no force, Qiong Jun directly expanded the scope of this air strike to the largest extent, covering the entire Ping An Jing.
In terms of attack power, it also reached its highest level, throwing all the incendiary bombs in the inventory upside down.
Originally, Emperor Meisho had already issued an order in the city, requiring everyone to prepare for fire prevention, but this time the strong wind made her original plan come to nothing.
Because the progress of fire-fighting is far behind the spread of the fire. Even if you sprinkle water on it, it will still be a drop in the bucket.
In short, it’s all in vain!
This result was exactly what Qi Yu expected, but in fact, it was beyond his expectation.
The fire spread more rapidly than he expected.
What's the reason for this...?
Is it God's help?
of course not!
Strictly speaking, this phenomenon is caused by special geographical factors.
You know, Fuso is a country prone to earthquakes. If there are not a few earthquakes every year, people in the country will feel that the world is a little abnormal.
It is for this reason that their buildings rarely have mud bricks and tiles, and most of their buildings are wooden structures. This kind of construction can effectively avoid casualties caused by earthquakes and avoid the trouble of repeated reconstruction. It can be said that they complement each other.
However, this kind of construction has a fatal hidden danger, that is, the fear of fire.
Once a spreading trend occurs, it is difficult to control.
Just as it is said in the Five Elements theory that wood creates fire, it is just dry wood and a raging fire that never goes out.
Yes!
In less than an hour, everything around Ping An Jing turned into a sea of fire.
The fire attack plan was very successful.
However, Qiongjun's air force paid a heavy price for this.
Affected by the strong wind, they were unable to stay high in the sky and drifted away directly. Moreover, it is impossible to return in a short period of time.
At this time, it is the time to employ men, so it is inappropriate to spread the troops so thinly.
"It's no pity. Their mission has been completed very successfully..."
"Soldiers, please take care of yourself!"
Looking at the hot air balloon army flying away with the wind, Qi Yu felt relieved but also felt a little reluctant to give up.
He was right. This air strike was indeed great and had severely defeated the enemy.
Under such a fire, there were very limited places to hide in Ping'an Capital, so escaping out of the city became their best choice.
However, this will cause chaos.
Just imagine, when you are escaping, how can you organize a tight defense?
Woolen cloth?
However, the Fuso Army in chaos still cannot be underestimated.
If nothing else, with a force ten times their own, they would have the confidence to challenge Qiong's army. Even if there is some confusion, it does not necessarily mean that you will be at a disadvantage.
Thus, a chaotic war arose.
Oh no!
It should be said to be a fiery battle.
Qi Yu thought of striking while the iron was hot, or rather taking advantage of the fire, and let the real Qiongjun come forward and charge forward.
The Fuso Army, on the other hand, assumed a defensive posture, with soldiers coming to cover up the water and the earth.
In particular, when they saw that Qiong Jun had used up all his cards, they all began to grit their teeth and defend, creating a very tragic atmosphere.
Yes, as long as you survive this level, you can see the dawn of victory. Why not fight? Qi Dalang strangled the uncompressed Hua Zi, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Get out of the way and let me beat the drum myself to cheer up the soldiers!"
"Sir, this place is very dangerous and can easily be hit by stray arrows, so let the little one come!" Seeing that the commander was in danger himself, the little soldier quickly tried to dissuade him.
"Soldiers are in much more danger in close combat than me. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, how can I be greedy for life and afraid of death?" Qi Yu shook his head decisively and refused.
When the generals under his command saw Lord Qi being so heroic, their hearts boiled even more.
Invisibly, morale also improved a lot.
As the saying goes, fighting requires courage. Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
And now, it’s time to go all out!
Bang bang bang!
The war drums are beating!
Encouraged by Qi Yu, the Marines of the Qiong Army galloped away like tigers escaping from their cages with a strong aura of murder.
The domineering spirit in his bones burst out in an instant.
Previously, the puppet army was basically responsible for ground charges, and the regular army was only used as support. But now it is different. This time it is a real frontal attack on the enemy. If it doesn't show some decent momentum, how can it be worthy of Qiong? The title of the army?
The wind is rustling and the water is cold. The brave man is gone and never comes back. Explore the tiger's den and enter the dragon's palace. Look up to the sky and exhale and it will turn into a white rainbow!
There is no skill to speak of in this battle, and there is no water mixed in. It is very simple, just fight with all your strength.
Qiongjun relied on his equipment advantages to deal the maximum damage he could.
Fuso, on the other hand, relied on its numerical advantage to maneuver and try its best to keep the city gate intact.
At the end of the fight, only about 500 people were left in Qiong's army.
Fusang was not much better. It was estimated from many places that the number of people was only 8,000.
According to the experience accumulated during the defense war of the capital, the Qiong Army has the ability to fight one against ten. In other words, it is still capable of dealing with an enemy ten times its size.
However, now it is more than ten times, which is a bit mysterious...
There is even a possibility: if the fight continues like this, will it end with the entire army being annihilated?
This possibility does exist.
So... what should we do?
Qi Yu frowned and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
