Chapter 768: The Stone Cannon Shows Its Might Again
Gradually it was quiet outside, Yin Ziqi felt strange, so he called the two military officers who were guarding outside to come in, but he didn't respond after calling several times.
This made Yin Ziqi faintly angry under the strangeness.
The Han people have a good saying, the so-called close is not inferior, and they have never said a word or a word about these two military services, but tonight is good, and even the shadow of the person is gone.
"Someone, someone, are you tired of it?"
Even if Yin Ziqi shouted and broke his throat, no one paid attention to him. At this moment, he felt not only anger, but also a fear from the inside out.
Because this is not an ordinary place, in the army, in addition to the miscellaneous officers in the army, there are also guards and a general, and now he is about to break the roof, why can't he even see a person?
Could it be that something big happened? Mutiny?
As soon as this idea came out, Yin Ziqi felt a cold sweat all over his body.
What's worse is that he can't move freely now, and without the assistance of military service, it would be extremely difficult to even get out of this door.
After realizing the danger, Yin Ziqi instinctively chose to be quiet, he no longer shouted, but listened attentively, listening to the movement outside. At the same time, his right hand reached into his bosom and clenched the short blade with body temperature, but there was a stir, and in order to avoid humiliation, he had to cut himself!
"Fire, fire!
This shout came so abruptly that Yin Ziqi was startled, and in an instant, he was horrified to find that the entire house was burning, thick smoke was filled, and the smoked people were in pain. He struggled to get up, but his body was like a stiff stone, and he couldn't move.
In an instant, the tongue of fire had already rolled in front of him, Yin Ziqi held back his strength, and finally shouted:
"Help!"
Suddenly, he sat up suddenly, but found that he was still on the couch, which turned out to be a nightmare. He was already soaked with sweat, and he was about to call the two military officers in to help him change into his soaked middle coat, but he faintly smelled a smell of smoke.
Immediately afterward, the door was pushed open from the outside, and the lieutenant rushed in in a panic.
"Marshal, Tang Bing, Tang Bing set fire to the food in the urn city, seeing that the fire is rising, it can't be saved!"
After hearing this, Yin Ziqi only felt that his blood was surging, he never expected that the fire in his dream would be extended to reality.
"The urn city was closed at night, could it be that the Tang soldiers entered the hole in the ground? Why did it burn up? Why can't it be saved?"
Although the 100,000 stone grain only accounted for a small part of Hanjiacang, it was burned by a fire under heavy security, which had to be shocking!
The two military servants were late, and Yin Ziqi didn't care about reprimanding them, so he only hurriedly ordered:
"Carry me to the city!"
A moment later, Yin Ziqi looked high in the city, but saw that the urn city had been burned into a sea of fire, and he couldn't save it. However, even so, there were still soldiers shuttling back and forth between the inside and outside of the urn city, dousing buckets of water on it. It's a pity that the fire is so big that a bucket of water can't even see any effect, but it makes people feel that the water has fueled the fire and made the fire burn even more vigorously.
"Tell those soldiers not to put out the fire, get out, don't let the fire hurt people's lives again!"
After saying this, Yin Ziqi felt as if his chest had been hollowed out, and his whole body was soft on the bamboo couch, unable to lift a trace of strength.
After a long time, he barely supported his body, word by word, and said through gritted teeth:
"How did the fire burn, check it for me, find out to the end!"
The urn city was closed at night, and there was no communication between inside and outside, and suddenly there was a fire, which can only make people think of one possibility, that is, there was a mole.
Yin Ziqi was naturally no exception, and immediately ignored the food that was burning vigorously, and only made a big show of the traitors, and investigated who had approached the urn city after nightfall.
All of a sudden, everyone in the tossing army was in danger, for fear that people with ulterior motives would take advantage of this excuse to eradicate dissidents. And the most motivated to eradicate dissidents is none other than Yin Ziqi, after all, many people have more or less disobeyed his military orders, and now they all regret it.
In fact, these lieutenant generals and colonels have wronged Yin Ziqi, at this moment of great enemy, even if I have a problem, with Yin Ziqi's character, he will not purge dissidents in the army regardless of it, after all, he still has to take the overall situation into account.
At this time, it was already between night and dawn, and the night outside was getting thinner and thinner, and the east was faintly white. I don't know which one suddenly shouted:
"Look, what's that!"
The people in the city followed the prestige, but under the thinner and thinner night, more than a dozen tall monsters towered outside the city.
Yin Ziqi also discovered this thing, and he suddenly had a ridiculous feeling, could it be that the fire in the urn city was related to these monsters?
The sun was rising, the night was quickly dispelled, and the Yan soldiers and generals in the city also found that what was towering outside was not a monster, but a siege machine that looked a little strange.
At this moment, Yin Ziqi suddenly realized that he had the intention of deceiving, so why not the other party?
In other words, Qin Jin never thought of exchanging An Lushan's head for food from beginning to end, and all his previous actions can be understood as a kind of play against him!
"Qin Jin dog thief, deceive people too much!"
Yin Ziqi almost squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth, and then felt that the world was spinning, thanks to the quick eyes of the two military servicemen, they held it up, and then lay down on the bamboo couch, so that they were not thrown on the hard city wall.
……
"Isn't this an enlarged version of the stone cannon?"
When the Shenwu Army was in Chang'an earlier, they had tried to produce a large stone cannon that could be moved, but the political environment at that time was sinister, and Qin Jin did not have the extra energy to focus on it. Later, it was also a chance that Qin Jin and Qing Xuzi mentioned this thing, and they didn't want Qing Xuzi to be particularly interested in it, so they kept it in their hearts, and after tinkering for more than half a year, they finally came up with a movable stone cannon that could be used.
This kind of stone cannon is more than two zhang high, Qin Jin looked up, and felt that although this thing looked bluffing, the actual combat effect could only vary from place to place. After all, it is impossible to push the march of such an extremely bulky thing, and the most feasible way can only be built on the spot every place you go. Demolition is going on when the war is over.
In any case, this stone cannon can be regarded as a great power, and it can actually throw flammable materials into the urn city through the tall Luoyang city wall. Looking at the thick wooden frame, there seemed to be a lot of institutions that looked quite complicated, Qin Jin really wanted to ask Qing Xuzi how he managed to get this thing accurate.
"Alright, it's time to let the traitor grow the taste of the long stone cannon again!"
The huge iron ball was carried out, and a dozen people were busy around a stone cannon in an orderly manner.
Qin Jin wanted to see what was going on, but was persuaded to leave by the captain of the stone artillery battalion. Because this thing is so powerful, it is also possible to injure the operator when it is launched, and this kind of precedent has occurred in previous test launches.
"Doctor, look, these are all solid iron balls, one weighing hundreds of pounds! God knows what the result will be if it hits the city wall in front!"
Qingxuzi's voice was mixed with excitement and nervousness.
As soon as the special flute sounded, more than a dozen stone cannons bounced up at the same time, and more than a dozen iron balls were wrapped in a howling roar and smashed into the majestic Luoyang city wall.
Even if the rammed earth city wall of Luoyang had long been as hard as iron stone, it was smashed so quickly by this hundred-gold iron ball, and countless gravel was splashed and splashed everywhere.
After the iron ball hit the ground heavily, shallow pits appeared on the originally neat wall.
"Oh my God! I didn't expect it to be so powerful!"
Qing Xuzi was stunned by the scene in front of him, the test items he had created before were several times smaller than the stone cannon in front of him, so this was the first time he had seen the terrifying destructive power of this thing.
The rammed earth city wall of the time, although it is called soil, but after repeated processing and tamping, it has long been hard like iron and stone knife invulnerable, and the shallow pit does not look big, in fact, the damage to the city wall is far more than the eye can see.
If such a huge iron ball hits the city gate, it can easily pierce through it, even if it is protected by an iron gate. So, what else can stop them from attacking?
However, when Qin Jin explained that Qing Xuzi was aiming at the city gate and firing a salvo, Qing Xuzi shook his head repeatedly.
"The stone cannon is thrown high and smashed down, if you go around the city wall, it is very simple, but you can aim at the narrow city gate hole, it is really embarrassing!"
Qin Jin was only temporary, and he didn't really pin all his hopes for breaking the city on breaking the door, so he only smiled regretfully.
"If Luoyang is successfully recovered this time, with the credit of this stone cannon, Qin will also personally ask the Son of Heaven for the real person!"
Qingxuzi said with a smile:
If the Son of Heaven really recites the merits of the poor road, it is better to reward a hundred hectares of fertile land and build a famous grand view......
Qin Jin said with a straight face:
"It's not good to learn anything, but to learn those Buddhist temples, take advantage of the chaos in the world to annex land and hide the population. When the chaos is calmed down, the imperial court will inevitably attack these monasteries that do not produce but occupy a large amount of land!"
As he spoke, he glanced at him and said half-truthfully:
"If I were you, I would receive a reward of thousands of dollars, go to the inaccessible mountains, build a Qing Taoist temple, and don't mess with these mundane things!"
Qingxuzi smiled.
"Poor Taoism is just a joke, why should the doctor be serious? But whoever asks for immortals and asks, where is there anyone who builds Taoist temples in the mortal world and cheats incense money?"
The two of them laughed, but they completely ignored the tension in Luoyang City in the distance. But I saw that the rebel soldiers in the city were running back and forth, in addition to sending more troops, a large number of things were also moved.
