"My lord, do you think there's a problem with what I just said?" It just so happened that Liu Zihao, the president of Qian, who had just replied to the bandit army, had already shrunk back at this moment, looked at Wang Zhizheng on the side and asked.

"Well, yes, that's it. You remember, as long as you can hold back the thieves outside the city, you'll be fine no matter what. If you can drag them until the afternoon, I will ask the court for credit for you. Don't dare to say anything else, a garrison position is indispensable. Wang Zhizheng nodded at Liu Zihao with satisfaction and encouragement.

"Yes, thank you for the cultivation of the garrison, and I will do my best to deal with the thief." Hearing that there was merit to be received, Liu Zihao's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he was very excited.

"Hmm... Go ahead! Wang Zhizheng smiled.

At this time, I heard another voice from outside the city: "You adults want to think about it?" Whoever told you that I came to discuss with you, that I came to give orders, and that after a stick of incense, if you are obsessed with it again and do not open the city gates and surrender, don't blame our artillery for being ruthless. ”

"Cannon?"

Hearing this, Liu Zihao couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

What is the situation in Xiangcheng, others don't know if they defenders? Even if the thieves outside the city only came to attack the city with ladders, they might not be able to defend it, and now they have brought cannons, how can they defend it?

"My lord, they said they had cannons, what now?" As soon as the bandit army said this, Liu Zihao didn't dare to make a claim, so he had to turn around and ask Wang Zhizheng.

"Cannons? It's a real problem. I didn't expect the thief to bring this. You try to put it off as long as you can. Wang Zhizheng replied.

In fact, Wang Zhizheng did not expect things to develop like this. Cannons, although powerful in firepower, have been valuable since ancient times, and they are inconvenient to carry. There is not a single artillery in the entire Xiangcheng, who would have thought that this gang of thieves could still bring artillery.

For a while, Wang Zhizheng had no good way, so he could only let Liu Zihao continue to try to see if he could delay the time for the bandit army to attack the city. At the same time, I prayed in my heart that the reinforcements of the imperial court could arrive soon.

"No, don't, why do you need to use cannons? It's not up to me to say this surrender, I still have to go to my superiors to reflect, give us some time! "All Liu Zihao can think of now is to drag, as much as possible.

Don't say you won't surrender, but you have to let the officials above know what you mean. As for finding a superior, you always have to ask for time, and as for how long, it's hard to say.

"Well, that's good." Hearing Liu Zihao's words, Wang Zhizheng couldn't help but stretch out his thumb to him and praised.

"Since you can't be the master, what nonsense are you talking about here? Now go and get the people you can call the shots. The voice from outside the city made Liu Zihao and Wang Zhizheng feel relieved and showed a shallow smile.

"Good, good. Wait a minute, I'll go and invite our garrison over. Probably afraid that the bandit army outside the city would react, I saw Liu Zihao agree repeatedly.

"Well, if you want to go, hurry up, because after this incense is lit, our army will officially open artillery to attack the city." At this time, I saw that the bandit army who came from outside the city to persuade him to surrender did not know that he had taken out a stick of incense and a fire fold from there.

The incense is not long, and the most infuriating thing is that the bandit army folded it out a short section before lighting the incense and then lit it.

"This master, didn't you say that I would go to our guard? Why did you still order it? And to fold a section? Liu Zihao looked full of anger on his face, but he had to be careful to smile and say.

"Oh, what I want to tell you is, I'm sorry, but I can't be the master. Our head of the group said that a stick of incense is the time of a stick of incense. The point that was folded out is even the time wasted just talking to you. I saw that this bandit army looked at Liu Zihao with a smile on his face and replied.

"So, if you're going to find your guards, hurry up and find them. The time of a stick of incense is very fast. Otherwise, I'd like to see you talk to me after we open fire, instead of seeing you blown up and your limbs flying. ”

After speaking, the bandit soldier also gently blew the lit incense that was not too long with his mouth, revealing his slightly yellow teeth, and smiling happily on his face.

Unbeknownst to others, at first glance, he smiled so brightly, as if he had encountered some great joy.

However, in the eyes of Liu Zihao and others, even the devil's smile is nothing more than that.

The incense is burning little by little.

The occasional breeze blows, and it seems to speed up a lot.

At this moment, Liu Zihao felt sweat on his forehead.

"The weather, when is it so hot? I just haven't felt it yet. Liu Zihao thought after wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"My lord, I am incompetent and powerless. Let's see what to do! The incense was almost half burned, and looking at the iron barrel cannons that were constantly sent forward by the bandit army not far away, Liu Zihao felt scared in his heart.

At this time, Wang Zhizheng no longer hid in the female wall, and came to the battlement to look down.

The incense is indeed burning.

Looking around, there are not many thieves outside the city. Wang Zhizheng roughly estimated, at most, it is only two thousand.

If the thieves only have such a small number of people attacking the city, and they command the defense themselves, they may be able to stop them for a day and a half.

However, seeing the thieves outside the city constantly pushing the front iron bucket artillery with a car, Wang Zhizheng couldn't help but muttered in his heart.

"Artillery, although I have never used it, but I have seen it. Can such a thin caliber and such a large artillery really fire? Aren't they afraid that they won't be able to shoot shells and blow up the hall and kill themselves? ”

The "conscienceless" cannon of one door was still pushing forward, and it almost stopped when it was close to the city.

There were probably more than twenty pieces of artillery in one line.

Although the cannon body is not thick, it is intimidating to look at under the wide and black muzzle.

"With such a thin cannon body, are they really not afraid that this cannon will blow up the hall? Or maybe they're just fearless who don't know, or maybe they know they're going to blow up the hall, and they're just pulling it out to scare us. For Wang Zhizheng, who has never seen the power of the "conscienceless cannon" again, he has to analyze and think with his brows locked.

The incense has been burning to the end.

The appearance of a "conscienceless cannon" made the defenders on the city wall tremble. From time to time, someone looked at Wang Zhizheng, who was really frowning, uneasily.

"Lord Wang, what's the situation outside the city now?" I don't know when, the county official Feng Minghe came to Wang Zhizheng's side and asked.

"Well, Master Feng, you're here." Wang Zhizheng came back to his senses and said.

"Yes, Lord Wang, what's the situation outside the city now?" Feng Minghe asked anxiously again.
