World Destroying Demonic Emperor
328: Guixing loses and loses! Hematemesis!

Text 328: Going back and losing a big defeat! Hematemesis!
For returning home, there are only two tasks.
First, declare war on Tianshui City. Second, capture the rocky island.
Next, Linhai City will be completely beaten, and the task of completely destroying Tianshui City will be handed over to Zhiwei and Turingtuo's army.
Because Sauron was dead, the king finally acquiesced that Linhai City declared war on Tianshui City, so the first step was successfully completed.
The next step is to capture the rocky island in the second step.
From the perspective of Gui Xingnegative, this is also a simple matter.
Although the navy of Tianshui City retreated and did not fight, and turned the navy into an army, retreating into the rocky castle.
But how big is the mere Rock Island Castle? Even after two years of construction, it is not even half the size of Nanlin Fort.
The castle is backed by a steep cliff, right in front of it, and there are large flat lands on the left and right sides, which can accommodate 40,000 troops.
The 40,000 army spread out on the ground in front of the castle in a black mass, surrounding the entire castle in a fan shape, as if it was about to completely submerge the small castle.
The hundreds of giant crossbows brought down from the battleship were placed neatly on the frontal battlefield.
According to Gui Xingnegative's prediction, this small castle can be completely captured in a maximum of one day.
Go to war!
With an order, the shocking drums of war sounded.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
the front of the castle,
Hundreds of giant crossbows were fired at the same time, and the three-meter-long giant arrows shot out like raindrops.
This terrifying giant crossbow has a range of more than three hundred meters.
Carry out two rounds of trial shooting, and then constantly adjust the position of the crossbow.
On the left and right sides of the castle, the returning 20,000 troops rushed towards the castle like a tide. Because all the walls on both sides are short, there is no need for a siege ladder, just use a rope hook to climb up.
Gui Xinglong wanted to attack this small rocky castle from three sides with the momentum of thunder.
...
On the rocky castle, Yan Chuo'er was the commander in chief, Duke Xiting's guard commander, Suo Feiyang, Suo Mu and the other three commanded the battle on three sides of the castle respectively.
Guixing's three-sided pincer tactic seems to have an amazing momentum.
On the left and right sides of the castle, countless enemies swarmed up like ants, and the power of hundreds of giant crossbows shooting at the same time suppressed everyone on the front wall so that they could not look up.
Queen Yan Chuoer gave an order.
On the left and right sides, the scorpion machine is ready, the gunpowder pack is ready!
Hundreds of scorpion trebuchets opened suddenly, and dozens of catties of gunpowder were placed on the throwing tray.
This kind of scorpion trebuchet is relatively small, and it is a small and medium-sized trebuchet. Generally, the longest projection distance is only more than 100 meters.
Left and right archers, get ready!
Immediately, more than 6,000 soldiers on the left and right bowed their bows and set up arrows!
Directly ahead, heavy trebuchets are ready, giant fire oil barrels, ready!
Four or five soldiers put their lives on a dozen super-heavy trebuchets directly in front of the castle, and put a giant kerosene barrel on the throwing plate. The giant kerosene barrel contained more than 500 catties of kerosene.
Yan Chuoer looked at the enemies on the left and right, getting closer and closer, and soon came within a range of 200 meters.
All archers, let go!
Following her order.
Swish, whoosh, whoosh... Thousands of defenders in the rocky castle let go of their bowstrings at the same time.
Thousands of arrows shot out like a torrential rain.
Puff puff……
Countless arrows rained down, and the returning army on both sides of the castle fell to the ground one after another.
With such a dense siege army, the hit rate of arrow rain can reach nearly half. In the first round of volley, the siege army of Guixing lost more than 200 casualties.
However, Gui Xing's face will not change for this casualty.
It was only 200 meters away from the castle, and the defenders could fire several volleys, at least four times, adding up to six or seven hundred casualties at most.
For the 40,000 army, the casualties were not large.
And when the siege army got close to the city wall, it was another kind of fighting.
The siege army on both sides continued to charge like a tide, and had already entered within 150 meters.
Scorpion trebuchet, launch!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Following Yan Chuoer's order, hundreds of scorpion trebuchets threw hundreds of ignited gunpowder packets out.
Bang bang bang bang...
After hundreds of gunpowder packets hit the ground, it was like rain falling on a pond, without a sound.
The Guixing army that was besieging the city was still stunned. This thing is a cloth package, and it can't kill people even if it is smashed.
But then...
Boom boom boom boom...
Hundreds of gunpowder packs exploded violently, each weighing tens of kilograms, and within a few meters around, all the bodies were smashed to pieces, and the corpses flew horizontally.
The entire ground was trembling, and countless flames burst out.
Countless corpses flew into the air.
The siege army of Guixing negative was completely stunned!
What, what is this? It was completely like a thunderbolt.
The whole ground was shaking, and the ears roared as if they were deaf.
This gunpowder looks amazing, but its lethality is not that great.
The explosion of hundreds of gunpowder packets only caused more than a thousand casualties.
However, the siege armies on both sides were so frightened that they stopped instinctively.
Gui Xing negative was also startled by the explosion of gunpowder, but when he saw that the siege army on both sides had actually stagnated, he roared angrily: Continue to attack the city, continue to attack the city.
Then, the armies on both sides continued to charge desperately.
Whoosh whoosh...
Next, the defenders of the castle were completely free to shoot, constantly bending their bows and setting arrows, and constantly shooting.
The distance of 200 meters became a hell. Gui Xing's 20,000-strong army rushed across the distance of more than 200 meters. When they reached the castle, more than 2,000 people were killed or injured.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Countless soldiers rushed under the castle wall, began to throw rope hooks, and climbed the wall.
However, they found out horribly that the entire wall of the city had been smeared with something, it was completely greasy, and they couldn't climb it at all, and couldn't use their strength.
Ignite the fire, and this greasy thing won't burn at all.
As a result, more than 10,000 soldiers were trapped under the castle, unable to climb up at all.
Swish, whoosh, whoosh... At this moment, the defenders on the castle were desperately shooting arrows and throwing small gunpowder packets downward.
Boom boom boom...
The dense siege army suddenly fell to the ground like a stack of wheat.
Casualties increased dramatically.
Gui Xing's scalp felt numb all of a sudden, he really didn't know what this explosive thing was?
Retreat, retreat, retreat...
Following Gui Xing's order, the rear battalion rang the bell to retreat.
More than 10,000 soldiers who finally rushed under the city wall began to run back desperately.
Then, again, he was subjected to a rainstorm of bow and arrow shooting, and another round of scorpion catapults.
Hundreds of gunpowder packets exploded violently again.
After completely retreating to the main army formation and counting the number of people in each battalion, Gui Xing negative found that only 15,000 of the 20,000 troops that attacked the city in the first round were left, with more than 5,000 casualties.
On the open space on both sides of the castle, there are big potholes everywhere, and there are corpses everywhere.
Gui Xinglong couldn't help feeling his scalp tingling. He thought this small castle would be easy to attack, but he didn't expect to lose 5,000 people in the first round of attack.
In particular, Soxhlet's thunderous (gunpowder)-like secret weapon brought huge casualties.
More than 70% of the casualties of more than 5,000 people were caused by the terrible thunder.
The entire outer wall of the castle was smeared with that kind of slippery thing, and there was no siege ladder, so it was impossible to climb the wall with a rope hook.
The tactic of attacking from three sides is no longer possible. We must concentrate our efforts on attacking the front and breaking through the gate of the castle.
...
An hour later, Guixing's army changed its formation and displayed all the troops on the front of the castle.
And Yan Chuoer immediately mobilized most of the troops to the front of the castle.
Giant crossbow suppression...
Go back and take an order!
Hundreds of giant crossbows were replaced with rows of arrows, and each giant crossbow fired more than a dozen arrows at the same time.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
With a round of riding and shooting.
Every round, thousands of crossbow arrows rain down on the wall.
Papa...
A giant crossbow rained down like a torrential rain, immediately suppressing the front of the castle so that it could not raise its head.
Break the door...
Thousands of soldiers charged frantically, covering a battering ram in the middle, and rushed to the gate of the castle desperately.
On the top of the city.
Super heavy crossbow, shoot! Yan Chuo'er ordered.
Hoo hoo hoo hoo...
There was a muffled trembling sound, and more than a dozen super-giant trebuchets threw a 500-jin kerosene barrel three to four hundred meters away.
Hiss, hiss... Every fire oil barrel was lit with a lead rope.
Bang bang bang bang...
More than a dozen giant kerosene slammed into the ground of more than 300 meters, and smashed into the siege crossbow formation of the returning army.
The hit rate was pathetic, only hitting three giant crossbows.
But... After the dozens of feet of kerosene barrel hit the ground, the kerosene inside sprayed out and touched the burning fuse.
boom……
All of a sudden, all the fire oil was burning.
Hundreds of giant crossbows, dozens of them were damaged at once, and in order to put out the fire, the fire suppression of the giant crossbows had to be suspended.
At this time, the medium-sized scorpion trebuchet on the top of the city began to change direction, transferred to the top of the city, and began to throw terrible gunpowder packets.
Thousands of soldiers hid behind the three-story battlements, bent their bows and set up arrows, and began to throw round after round.
After nearly half of the casualties, they finally rushed under the city gate.
Whoosh whoosh...
Countless gunpowder packs, boulders, and kerosene barrels were thrown down.
And the super-heavy trebuchet, already re-tensioned, was ready for a second salvo.
Whoosh whoosh...
After the heart-pounding roar, more than a dozen giant gunpowder heads were thrown hundreds of meters, and smashed hard on the giant crossbow position of the returning army.
Countless kerosene burned again, and dozens of giant crossbows were damaged!
Rush, rush, rush...
Gui Xingchen gritted his teeth and sent wave after wave of soldiers to charge.
Then, countless soldiers stepped forward and died in this short distance of 300 meters.
...
Night falls!
There have been fierce battles on Chaos Stone Island for six hours.
This small rock castle is still standing.
All over the battlefield, corpses piled up like mountains.
Father, there are 9,000 casualties today, of which 3,000 were killed in battle, 2,000 were seriously injured, and 4,000 were slightly injured. Gui Qin Zhong said, Most of the giant crossbow that was removed from the battleship was also damaged.
Gui Xingchen closed his eyes in pain, the 40,000 army has lost more than 20%, if it is a field battle, the entire army may have collapsed.
How many people were killed or injured by the opponent's Hong Tianlei? Gui Xing asked.
Gui Qin Zhong said: More than 70%!
Gui Xingling's heart twitched violently. If there were no such terrible thunder and kerosene bombs, he would have broken through the rocky castle today.
He knew in his heart that whether it was thunder (gunpowder) or kerosene bombs, they were all things that could change the pattern of war and were revolutions in military affairs.
Fortunately, Sauron is dead, otherwise, if he has mastered these two super sharp weapons, he might really be overthrown by him, and then Guishi will die without a place to bury him.
But Gui Xing was very surprised, Sauron was already dead, why did the defenders of the Rocky Island fight so desperately?
Could it be that he wants to die with his returning army? Not at all, the Rocky Island is important to Suo Shi, but if you lose it, you will lose it. Money is so important.
With so many kerosene bombs and so many Thunderbolts, wouldn't it be good to use them to defend Tianshui City?
It is useless for you and me to go back to the navy and die together. I am only disrupting Shidao. It is Turingtuo and Zhiwei's 400,000 troops who are really going to destroy you.
How's the morale of the army? Gui Xing negative asked.
Complaints are everywhere. Gui Qin Zhongdao: Especially the Luanyang City army has been threatening to withdraw from the battlefield, but the rock bandits sent by the rock demon are still murderous.
Gui Xingzhang brought 40,000 troops this time, only a few thousand people really belonged to Linhai City, and the rest came from Luanyang City, various counties and princes, Haishi and Rock Pirates of Yingzhou Island.
It's okay if the battle goes well, but if it doesn't go well, there will be a lot of quarrels.
On the sea, are there any traces of the warships of Tianshui City? Gui Xing asked.
No. Gui Qin Zhong said: Our scouting fast boats have been sent out for hundreds of miles, but we haven't found any trace of the warships in Tianshui City.
Then, Gui Qin Zhong said: Father, if... I said, what if we can't take down Luanshi Island?
Gui Xing said negatively: There is nothing to do. Once the deadline is up, Xili will still convict Sauron of treason, and then 400,000 troops will still attack Tianshui City, and Suo Clan will still be destroyed. It's just... our Linhai City After the war, the Gui family may not be able to share much of the benefits.
Gui Qin Zhong said: After the battle, can we rescue my sister?
Absurd, stupid... Gui Xing sternly said: You should think that Gui Qin Shao is already dead. If it wasn't for her stupidity, why would my Gui clan of Linhai City be in this state? Why did I have to come forward to extract chestnuts from the fire?
Then, Gui Xing negative ordered: Get ready, we will fight again tomorrow!
Yes! Gui Qin Zhong said.
Gui Xinglong continued: Send people to Baiyun County, Luanyang City and other places, and use large cargo ships to transport trebuchets, giant crossbows and siege ladders to prepare for a protracted war.
Yes. Gui Qin Zhong said.
...
the next day!
The shocking war drum sounded again.
Gui Xing negative once again launched an army and launched a crazy attack on the castle of Luanshidao!
Once again the battle raged from morning to dusk.
Still failed to break through the gate of Luanshidao Castle, instead, a dozen siege ladders were improvised, and dozens of warriors climbed up the castle.
But in the end, all the warriors who climbed to the top of the castle were killed, and all the dozens of siege ladders were burned.
In the battle on the second day, Guixing's army suffered another 6,000 casualties, and only 25,000 of the 40,000 army remained.
Morale is completely low to the extreme, and there are even signs of mutiny.
If not for all the soldiers knowing that Suoshi would surely die, and standing behind them was His Highness the future King Shili, with such heavy casualties, this mixed army would have completely mutinied long ago.
Even though the Sokshi defenders on Chaoshi Island were exhausted, the scorpion trebuchets and the super giant trebuchets had been damaged by nearly half.
The kerosene bombs, gunpowder packs, and even the arrows have all been consumed.
But Gui Xing knew that the fierce siege battle was over, and he could not launch a third attack.
Pass down the order to suspend the attack tomorrow and change to a siege tactic, forcing the defenders in the castle to run out of ammunition, food and fresh water. Gui Xing negative ordered.
Yes. Gui Qin Zhong said, Then when will we attack again?
Gui Xing said: When the reinforcements arrive, the siege supplies will arrive.
Yes! Gui Qin Zhong said.
Then, Guixing let out a heavy sigh.
This battle was so ugly, 40,000 troops attacked a small castle with 10,000 defenders, and fought for two full days, losing more than 10,000 people and have not yet been defeated.
What he faces after returning home is not only the loss of face, but also the loss of profit.
After the demise of Suoshi, the division of interests in the rock salt field must not belong to the family.
Even the 300-mile territory that Tianshui City wants to cede to the Gui family will be discounted, or even nothing.
With such a defeat in the battle, Gui Xing felt tremendous pressure.
Originally thought that it would be easy for 40,000 navies to fight 10,000 navies, and this time the war started to kill tigers.
Unexpectedly, Soxhlet would completely abandon naval warfare and switch to land warfare. A mere castle on Luanshi Island broke several of his front teeth.
Damn Suoshi, before he died, he still wanted to bite me. Gui Xing said angrily: In the future, I will definitely kill everyone in your Suoshi, and let out the evil in my heart.
And at this moment, Gui Qin Zhong who had already left rushed in.
Father, elder brother passed the letter from Feiyao in the main city of Linhai! Gui Qin Zhong held a secret letter in his hand.
The Flying Harriers were supposed to arrive a day and a half ago, but the route of Luanshi Island is still very unfamiliar. This group of Flying Harriers only trained a few rounds, so 90% of the dozen or so Flying Harriers were lost. The remaining two circled around several islands for more than half a circle, and finally one of them flew to its destination, and was intercepted by the harrier trainer in Linhai City!
When I got the secret letter, I found that it marked the highest level, so it was extremely urgent!
Gui Xing felt astonished, the main city of Linhai should sit back and relax, why did Gui Qinbi send a secret letter of urgent need?
When I opened it, I saw that Gui Qinbi's secret letter read:
Father, Sauron is not dead, he led his army northward to attack Linhai City two days ago.
Nanlin Fort has fallen, Guiqinqu was captured, and the main force of more than 10,000 of my Gui clan was wiped out.
Now, Sauron's army has surrounded the main city of Linhai, and it is in danger. Please send troops to rescue!
Also, according to my guess, Gui Qinshao may have been rescued by Sauron.
My Gui family is in danger, it's urgent, it's urgent!
After reading this letter, Gui Xingling suddenly felt his scalp go numb, and his eyes went dark.
Then, there was a burst of sharp pain in the chest.
Sauron, bully me too much, bully me too much! Gui Xingyun let out a loud roar, spurting out a mouthful of blood!
...
