At night, the sound of fighting continued to sound, and the torches on the city wall were bright, and the city wall was illuminated as if it were day. The Jin soldiers patrolled back and forth, keeping an eye on every move of the Song army under the city.

Under the cover of night, the camp of the Song army was immersed in darkness, quiet, no movement, and the golden soldiers in the city also relaxed.

The lights on the city are bright, and the light is so bright, the Song army wants to sneak attack, and it is all in sight.

In the huge tent in the front camp of the Song army's camp, the sappers were sweating profusely and were digging tunnels in full swing, tirelessly.

The city of Taiyuan was flat and had a soft foundation due to its proximity to the Fen River, but due to water seepage, the sappers had to dig a river that led to the low-lying area. This is also one of the reasons why they are moving slowly, otherwise, at this time, they have dug under Taiyuan City. The 300 sappers were divided into two groups, 150 in charge of the east and 150 in charge of the west, and the two tunnels were moving forward at the same time, so as not to be discovered by the gold soldiers, and the other could continue to dig.

The sappers carefully dug forward, driving piles and fixing them as they dug, and in order not to be detected, they could only dig a distance of about 200 meters every night.

When the Jurchen army first attacked Taiyuan City, it filled in the moat, which also made the excavation of the sappers very smooth, and after a few nights, two tunnels were dug not far from the city wall.

Gunpowder blasting and destroying the city is unique in this era, and it is also the first precedent in the loyal army.

When Zhao Guangyi, Taizong of the Song Dynasty, rebuilt Taiyuan City, in order to nail the dragon vein of Taiyuan, the streets of Taiyuan City were built into a "T" shape, instead of a criss-cross "well" shape. On the left and right sides of the city were huge garrison training grounds, and there was no possibility of street fighting.

The circumference of Taiyuan City is only ten li, from south to north, the length is only less than three li, but 30,000 soldiers and horses are stationed, and the cavalry cannot be deployed at all. Once the battle was fought, the cavalry had no choice but to evacuate.

Otherwise, in the dark, they will all become the target of the opponent's attack.

With the help of the disturbances made by the loyal and righteous troops when they frequently harassed the city wall, the sappers carefully took turns digging and finally dug the tunnels on both sides at the same time in the evening three days later.

Bags of explosives were transported into the tunnels and completely built under the city walls.

The explosives were stacked and sealed, and several fuses were pulled out of the tunnel until they reached the exit of the tunnel.

When everyone had already withdrawn from the tunnel, the sappers exited their tents one by one, waiting for the final orders from the army.

In the darkness, the soldiers of the loyal and righteous army were all dressed and waiting, waiting in the barracks.

"All sergeants, assemble and standby!"

With the roar of the officers, all the loyal soldiers left the camp and quickly assembled in the wilderness.

Seeing that the Song army on the opposite side was assembling again, the Jin soldiers on the city wall shook their heads, and they had no choice but to stand on the head of the city again.

A new round of harassment is about to begin.

In the big tent, Ma Kuo paced around restlessly, like sitting on pins and needles.

"Xianggong, can gunpowder really blow down the city wall?"

Chen Dong frowned, clenched his fists uneasily, and his body trembled slightly.

Ouyang Che was younger after all, and he couldn't hold his breath.

"The prime minister sent troops to harass frequently, which is a strategy for tired soldiers. It's just that this gunpowder can blow down the city wall, and the lower officials have never heard of it. Can the prime minister be relieved?"

Lin Feng sat on one side, his eyes also glancing at Wang Song, obviously wanting to know the answer as well.

"Don't be impatient, you'll know later!"

Wang Song smiled slightly, turned his head, and looked at Zhang Xian on the side.

"Zhang Tong, have you arranged everything?"

Zhang Xiansu bowed and said: "Xianggong rest assured, there are two armies of Niu Gao and Wang Yan in the east, and the Chinese army in the west, led by the Xia Guan and Zhang Heng brothers. 50 artillery pieces and 5300 grenadiers were placed on each side of the east and west. The second group to enter the city was Meng De and Jiao Wentong's Xuanfeng Army and Shengjie Army, equipped with 50 artillery pieces, responsible for the east side. Yang Jin's Left Army and Yelu Army's Army were in charge of the west. ”

Although he was suspicious of the gunpowder blowing up the city wall, he would only resolutely carry out Wang Song's military orders.

"This battle will be an unprecedented vicious battle since the formation of my loyal army, and we must not be sloppy!"

Wang Song Zhengse said: "The brothers of this official and the Xuanfu Division, as well as the brothers of the baggage battalion and the Youyi army, once the war is unfavorable, the official will immediately lead troops to reinforce!"

Zhang Xian said solemnly: "Xianggong just rest assured, the villain will never let Xianggong down!"

"Taiyuan City is a small place, we must use firearms frequently, and use everything that can be used!"

Wang Song advised: "When fighting, take Brother Lin with you, and when you meet the righteous victory army, you can surrender if you can." Before the Jin soldiers reacted, they must surround the Daxiao Field, seize the Dongcheng stables, and kill a large number of Jin soldiers!"

Lin Feng was grateful, and bowed: "Thank you for your compassion for the Northland Han'er."

"Xianggong, the villain is willing to be the vanguard of the former army, and ask for the favor of Xianggong!"

Yang Zaixing was already ready to move, and as soon as Lin Feng's words fell, he stood up.

"It's okay, you just follow Zhang Xian, act as a pioneer, and cut off a few more golden generals' heads back!"

Yang Zaixing was overjoyed, hugged his fists and said: "Thank you to the villain!"

Wang Song looked at the surprised eyes of everyone in the tent, nodded and said, "Let's start!"

Zhang Xian hugged his fists and said goodbye, and went out of the big tent with the generals.

"Are all the armies ready?"

Looking at the large array of loyal and righteous troops assembled in the wilderness, Zhang Xian forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and asked Yang Jin, Niu Gao, Wang Yan and others who came up.

"Everything is ready, just wait for the general's military order!"

Zhang Heng stepped forward to report.

"Get the whole army ready!"

Zhang Xian exhaled deeply and said to the sappers waiting on the side: "Let's start!"

The two sapper leaders took the order. The soldiers in front of them moved away from the horses in front of the large array, and in front of the army, it was already empty.

"Order the whole army to go out!"

As Zhang Xian's military order was issued, the sergeants moved forward quickly, and under the light of the torches, a moving red line was formed in the wilderness, heading straight for the southern wall of Taiyuan City.

About a mile in front of the city wall, the military order was handed down, and the army stopped, and soon several phalanxes were formed.

The Jin soldiers on the city wall saw that the Song army was preparing to attack the city, but they stopped again, and they all shook their heads.

These guys are going to start pretending to be ghosts again.

Sha Guzhi's eyes were bloodshot, and he stood on the city wall, staring viciously at the position of the Song army opposite. The Song people are cunning, and their tired tactics are really annoying.

"Come to attack the city and see how Lao Tzu kills these Song dogs!"

Sha Guzhi spat on the ground fiercely, turned and walked towards the city gatehouse. Thinking of the hot bodies of the two Song girls in the room, Sha Guzhi couldn't help but speed up his pace.

"Brother Zhang Heng, do you think this can be done?"

The city wall in front of him was majestic and towering, how could it be blown down by gunpowder, Niu Gao couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Brother Niu, little brother doesn't know. But the earth-shattering thunder can explode, and this gunpowder should be able to explode too!"

Yang Zaixing's face was full of excitement, and he said loudly: "Two brothers, you can rest assured, this city wall is bound to collapse, I don't believe you ......."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt that the mountains were shaking, and the ground under his feet shook violently, and he couldn't stand steadily, as if the ground had moved.

Everyone was shocked, they all reined in their horses, opened their eyes wide, and looked at the city wall.

After the earth shook and the mountain shook, I saw that the two sections of the city wall not far away suddenly shook, and then drowned in smoke and dust. The entire city wall seemed to crack, and the earth and rocks that had blown up into the air rained down like hailstones.

When the dust settled, the city wall collapsed, forming a long gentle slope, and the gap was more than ten meters wide. By the light of the remaining fires on the top of the city, the houses in the city could be seen clearly.

Countless human heads flew in the air and landed in front of everyone, which was the Song people's heads hanging on the city wall. Under the violent impact of gunpowder, these heads all became innocent victims.

Before he could take a few steps, his feet shook and he hadn't fallen yet, when a huge momentum surged from under his feet and threw him directly into the air.

"Kill the thief!"

Yang Zaixing couldn't hold back any longer, took the lead, and took the lead in running out.

"Kill the thief!"

Countless tigers and wolves had blood-red eyes, brandished knives and guns, and rushed forward with a roar, like hungry tigers and hungry wolves.

The soldiers roared away, overwhelming, but Wang Song couldn't help but sigh. Tens of thousands of people, just two gaps of more than ten meters, rushed forward together, and when they arrived in front of the city wall, they were not in a mess.

The chaotic soldiers quickly and unconsciously assembled and formed, and then turned into a sharp and arrow formation, and the brutal training of the loyal and righteous army unconsciously developed a sense of obedience and discipline.

The huge city wall collapsed, and the generals and staff next to Wang Song were dumbfounded at first, and then cold sweat broke out.

"Xianggong, this is the will of God!"

It took a long time for Ma Kuo to come up with such a sentence.

Ouyang Che faced the collapsed city wall, knelt down all of a sudden, kowtowed again and again, and muttered to himself: "God bless the Great Song, God bless the Great Song!"

He turned around suddenly, kowtowed to Wang Song, and said with teary eyes: "The villain has thanked the soldiers and people who died in Taiyuan!"

Many civil officials around knelt on the ground together, kowtowed to Taiyuan City, and kowtowed together.

Chen Dong wiped his tears, stepped forward with Ma Kuo, and helped Ouyang Che up. Ouyang Che burst into tears, and he didn't know whether it was sad or happy.

"Ouyang Gong, everyone, get up. It's too early to say success or failure!"

Wang Song said loudly to the subordinates on the ground: "The army will break the city, and it will go through a bloody battle, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer!"

"That's wrong!"

Ouyang Che wiped his tears with his sleeves and said categorically: "Prepare to attack unprepared, to fight rampant people with sharp spirit, to fight evil with righteousness, there is no reason to be invincible!"

Wang Song shook his head and smiled bitterly, there are more than 30,000 extremely vicious people in this city, and he has to lead his subordinates to fight a bloody battle to kill Fanzi's sharp spirit.

The remnants of the south gate city wall, the surviving golden soldiers on it were dumbfounded, some people were deaf by the bombing, frightened and overwhelmed, the survivors became frightened birds, seeing the countless loyal and righteous troops pouring outside, the first thought in my heart was to escape.

has been used as cannon fodder by the Jin people all year round, and the cannon fodder also has its own way of survival. Anyway, they are all cannon fodder, of course the sense of value of existence is too low, while it is dark, you can escape at night, who wants to throw yourself into this mountain of corpses and sea of blood.

A mile away, in an instant. Dozens of feathered arrows were shot down on the city wall, but they didn't know where they were shooting in the night. More surviving Jin soldiers fled the city wall as soon as possible, leaving a dead silence in the night.

Xu San's head was covered with sweat, he clenched the spear in his hand tightly, and like the soldiers of the loyal and righteous army around them, he followed behind the officers, quickly crossed the gap, and stepped into Taiyuan City, which had been separated from the Great Song Dynasty for more than two years.
