Kurban gave the order, the gunpowder catapults were all in place, and more and more of the siege infantry gathered under the city, and their eyes flashed with excitement, and at this moment they seemed to have seen a mountain of gold and silver in front of them, and they were ready to claim it.

On the top of the city tower, almost the commander of the bare pole army went into battle in person, and looked down the city with a telescope in a well-protected lookout tower, and saw the scene of the catapult preparing for battle, and was shocked in his heart, "Quickly, pass the order, everyone is looking for a safe place to hide, and at the same time notify the commander of the new first army's recruit division, Lv, to prepare for the whole division to attack." ”

The soldier's performance was somewhat disappointed to see it in his eyes just now. But when I think that people always need continuous training to be able to grow, my heart is full of expectations. Now seeing that the enemy is preparing to attack the city with gunpowder, where will he not know how powerful. Although he could pretend not to see it, the soldiers were subjected to a harsher battle, which was nothing more than more casualties. But when he thought of Yang Chendong's words that he often hung in his ears, soldiers all have families and relatives, and every time someone dies in battle, it is a family tragedy, so he decided that it is better to avoid it.

The order was given quickly, and as more and more of the defenders of the city looked for suitable cover to hide, the shouts of Kurban under the city were heard. At the sound of an order, hundreds of gunpowder packets flew up, rose into the air, and roared and leaped towards the city tower.

After a very short time, the rumbling explosions sounded one after another, and some of them happened to fall on the corridor of the city tower, which suddenly brought extremely terrifying lethality.

Fortunately, the accuracy of the gunpowder catapult was too poor, and less than one-fifth of them hit the target, most of them exploded on the city wall, and some people even fell back to the ground before exploding, and for a time they injured a lot of their own people.

"Charge." With the power of gunpowder, Kurban sensed that the time was right and gave the order for the whole army to charge. A total of 16,000 infantry under the four cities stepped on the ladder one by one, shouting slogans of rushing and killing.

On the castle tower, all 20,000 recruits retreated to safety, and when they saw the gunpowder exploded, the miserable appearance on the corridor of the castle tower, they were all afraid for a while. If they hadn't retreated just now, I'm afraid that even the wave of attacks just now, at least thousands of people would have been killed and injured because of it.

While the recruits were still glad that they had retreated fast enough, the 8,000 veterans of the New First Army's Recruit Division had already rushed out. Although the name is a recruit division, almost all of the veterans who may join here are veterans of a hundred battles. When they came to the battlements, their steps were steady and their expressions were as usual, and it was obvious that such a battle was like a child to them, and there was no more to make waves.

The division commander Lu Zhuo took the lead, pushing away a cloud ladder in front of him with a wooden fork that had been prepared a long time ago, and the frantic shouts of several enemies crawling on it were heard. Taking this opportunity, he looked down at the castle tower, and saw that it was a dense crowd of enemies lining up to climb the ladder, and a strange smile flashed on his face.

Reach out and touch the back of the waist, a smack

The wooden-handled grenade was held in his hand. Not only Lu Zhuo himself, but also the more than 8,000 soldiers he brought with him, each of whom had one in his hand, which was issued by the logistics division when they went up to the city tower this morning. Although there is only one per person, when more than 8,000 are put together, the power is terrifying enough.

"Everybody got ready, I counted three and threw it down, and everybody squatted down with their heads in their hands. Listen, one, two, three, throw" After Lu Zhuo shouted out the number three, the grenade in his hand had already been thrown towards the city in front of him, and then he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.

More than 8,000 grenades immediately rained down, and more than 2,000 fell outside each gate.

Yili was climbing up the ladder and more than 10,000 infantrymen were confused by the formation in front of them, they didn't know what this wooden hammer-like thing was, but they saw bursts of fireworks flashing, and some unlucky soldiers were directly hit by grenades, shouting in pain.

But just like that, no one made any dodge moves. This is the biggest drawback of the limitation of vision, when you have not even seen what a grenade is, and when you don't know what to do, the catastrophic consequences are already predestined.

Within three seconds of Lu Zhuo and the others dropping the bomb, a huge, deafening shout finally sounded, followed by a sky-high flame. When the power of more than 8,000 grenades is combined, the effect and the scene are spectacular.

In the roar, the earth trembled because of this. The people of Shicheng couldn't help but worry in their hearts at this moment, and looked in the direction of the outer city tower. When they saw that the brightly colored five-star army was still waving in the wind on the city tower, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As I said before the war, as long as the flag is still there, there will be no problems in Shijo, and all worries can be put aside.

The loud roar also alarmed the Warat coalition forces who were waiting for news in the military tent. He also walked out of the main tent with a palpitating expression on his face, he would not forget that when he was outside the Beiming Beijing Division, there was such a powerful artillery that appeared, and he was dizzy and scared for a while. Could it be that history is going to repeat itself again At this moment, a regretful thought suddenly appeared in his heart, Shicheng is the territory of the god of war, how could it be captured so easily

Outside the city, there were cavalry scouts of the Northern Ming Army wandering nearby, and they also felt this shock, and at the same time, everyone was in danger, and the news that the Five Star Army had unknown weapons of mass destruction spread.

Under the city, after a burst of roars, everything was quiet again. Looking at this place, it is like purgatory on earth. The shield cart wrapped in cowhide has long been torn apart, and the ladder has not even been found intact. And not only these items, but also the sixteen thousand infantry soldiers, were also blown to pieces, many people could not find a complete corpse, like the charred ground, only occasionally heard the wails and screams of a few deadly, but also not lightly wounded.

More than 8,000 grenades came out at the same time, and even the thick soil was lifted three feet high, not to mention the soldiers composed of flesh and blood. Powerful air waves and currents underneath, whether standing on the ground, also

It was a siege soldier who climbed to the top of the ladder and was in mid-air, and under the first battle, the whole army was annihilated.

The infantry commander General Kurban's eyes were red, and he slowly came to the battlefield with some stumbling steps.

In the first battle of the first day, the besieging army with high morale originally wanted to fight a beautiful war and come out on top, but who would have thought that it would be such a result. The annihilation of more than 10,000 soldiers smashed on the heads of the Warat coalition army like a heavy hammer, allowing them to see the powerful combat power of the five-star army.

A defeat was a tragic one, and the siege on the first day naturally stopped, attracting the revelry of 20,000 recruits on the city tower. Although they did not create such results, they were honored to be witnesses. After seeing the new division make a move, they also have infinite confidence in their hearts, that is, they will not use grenades, which are advanced weapons at that time, and they are also confident that they can hold the city and win the victory.

In contrast, the army of Yili Ali retreated two miles, as if fearing that such a lethal weapon would be thrown at their feet. In the main tent, Kurban, who had fainted in anger, had already woken up, and the first thing he did was to ask for sin, and then to ask for war.

"Prime Minister, the last general will be guilty. If it weren't for my eagerness to make a difference, they wouldn't have taken advantage of it and inflicted so much damage on us. In the future, when attacking the city, I promise not to send too many people at once, and I will not give them the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on our army. Also, the last general thinks that there won't be many of them in the five-star army with such a powerful weapon, otherwise, they won't wait until they are bombarded by us. ”

Kurban, who fainted and woke up again, was obviously much smarter, and many things seemed to be figured out. Then when he looked at Alipu, he had a look of war on his face. The first battle was lost, and the losses were so heavy, he had to make a statement, otherwise, he would have nothing to say even if he killed him according to military regulations now.

After Alipu learned the news of the total annihilation of the besieging army, he really thought about killing Kurban to prove military law. However, considering that the big war was imminent, it was unlucky to lose the general, and considering that in the infantry command, there were few people who could compare with Kurban, he finally hid his killing intent, and just looked at Kurban like a torch and said, "I am giving you a chance, if there is such a fiasco, you don't have to see me, and apologize for your crimes." ”

"Thank you, Prime Minister, thank you, Prime Minister." After Kurban, who had walked through the ghost gate, thanked him repeatedly, his eyes flashed with anger, this time he planted such a big fight, and then he had to get it back, which was not only related to his life, but also his dignity.

The regrouped Kurban first asked the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and remove the broken flesh and bones, and then brought in a large number of shield carts and ladders, and launched another round of siege battles at ten o'clock in the evening.

After the experience of the last time, Kurban gave strict control to the number of troops sent every time, and the number of troops sent at a time was generally 1,000 people, and at most it would not exceed 2,000 people, and he would not give the other party a chance to inflict heavy damage on himself.
