"Boom, boom, boom" The ninety-seven cannons of the Ying Long Army opened fire in unison.

In the valley, the earth shakes and the mountains shake.

Li Zicheng entered the Cangmang Mountain camp, and before he could catch his breath, he heard a deafening sound of cannonballs.

"What's going on?" Li Zicheng yelled angrily.

Although he expected that the Ming army must have chased after him, this sudden and fierce artillery bombardment still frightened him slightly.

"Newspaper"

"Your Majesty, the Ming army is killing in front of the mountain and is carrying out a fierce artillery bombardment at the entrance!" A soldier of the Dashun Army hurriedly came to report.

Sure enough, Rao is Li Zicheng was confident in the defense he had personally established, but when he heard the fierce shelling of the Ming army, his letter was still a little trembling, for fear that the Ming army would really open a gap and kill him.

Li Zicheng's face turned pale.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the only two passages in Cangmang Mountain have been surrounded by boulders fifteen meters high and ten meters wide, although the artillery of the Ming army is powerful, but if you want to blast a way in, it is not possible to imagine it without ten days and half a month!" Li Guo said.

Ten days and half a month?

Li Guo's comfort not only failed to calm Li Zicheng's mind, but made Li Zicheng even more frightened.

If you can only defend for ten days and half a month, what is the difference between it and being blasted away now!

"Nope! I don't believe it, how can a defense fifteen meters high and ten meters wide be blasted away in ten days and half a month, it is absolutely impossible! Li Zicheng roared like crazy, he couldn't accept it, the Ming army couldn't kill it!

Although the terrain of Cangmang Mountain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but in the same way, if you are artificially trapped, it is also wishful thinking to escape!

Li Zicheng panicked, dared to take Li Guo's hand and said hurriedly: "Li Guo, you quickly find a way, you must not let the Ming army kill in!" ”

"Your Majesty, Li Guo can't either!" Li Guo sighed, shook his head and said.

"No, I don't believe it!" Li Zicheng stumbled in despair.

At this moment, the only person Li Zicheng can rely on is Li Guo, Li Guo is the last general by his side, if Li Guo can't solve the current desperate situation, then he really doesn't know who to find.

Although Li Guo has some talents, he is not omnipotent in the end, even if Li Zicheng doesn't believe it, he really can't think of any way.

"Boom Boom"

In front of Cangmang Mountain, the artillery battalion of the Yinglong Army continued to shell one after another, and the powerful shells exploded in the Cangmang Mountain Pass, not a few pieces of gravel that were blown out at once!

Zhang Kuishan frowned, he didn't expect that the defense of Cangmang Mountain was so strong, and after several rounds of shelling, he didn't move at all, and if he continued like this, it would not be easy to blast through the defense of Cangmang Mountain.

"According to this situation, I am afraid that the shelling will not be effective without ten days and half a month!" The red lady said.

Although spies had been sent into the mountains to secretly explore Li Zicheng's deep mountain camp, the Red Lady did not expect the defense of Cangmang Mountain to be so strong, it seems that Li Zicheng naturally made this the last life-saving camp!

"It's been too long, the cannonballs carried by Ying Long's army are simply not enough to support such a long time, if they are transported from Nanjing City, it will take nearly ten days to come and go, won't it take nearly a month to break through the defenses of Cangmang Mountain?" Zhang Kuishan shook his head, not to mention the problem of time, so many shells, at least millions of taels of silver, the emperor knows, and he has to scold him for being a loser.

The two fell silent one after another.

"Actually, it's not impossible, I have a way or maybe it works, but I'm afraid that I will lose the lives of some soldiers!" The red lady said with some hesitation.

"Oh? General Red Lady said to listen to it. Zhang Kuishan looked at the red lady.

"This place is close to Nanyang, you can send people to collect a large number of sacks in Nanyang, and after filling them with soil, they will pile up more than ten meters high, so that they can only break the city in three days, but in terms of casualties, I am afraid that there are no less than thousands!" This is the key to the red lady's hesitation, after all, although she is used to fighting on the battlefield, she has not reached the point of cold-bloodedness, and it is really inappropriate to exchange thousands of casualties for twenty days.

The reason why I said it was just because the red lady was out of the duty of leading the general.

Zhang Kuishan also hesitated, he couldn't accept such a senseless casualty. Besides, this method is not clever, the red lady can think of it, he can also think of it, Li Zicheng may not have thought of it when he established Cangmang Mountain, don't end up doing all useless work!

"No, it's only about twenty days, so there is no need for such unnecessary casualties!" Zhang Kuishan shook his head and rejected the Red Lady's proposal.

Hearing Zhang Kuishan's refusal, the red lady was obviously relieved, to be honest, she didn't want Zhang Kuishan to use such a method.

Since it is not advisable to fill in a road, Zhang Kuishan and the Red Lady can't think of another way for a while, so they can only let Ying Longjun continue to bombard!

"Fire!"

"Boom Boom"

The artillery battalion of the Yinglong Army continued to bombard, and the sound of explosions echoed around Cangmang Mountain in the deep mountains.

Zhang Kuishan's eyes kept looking in the direction of the artillery camp, stunned.

Suddenly, looking at the soldiers of the Ying Long Army who were constantly carrying shells and gunpowder, Zhang Kuishan's mind flashed with inspiration, and he thought of a wonderful solution.

"Hey, I've got a solution!" Zhang Kuishan said with a smile!

"Oh? How? The red lady was shocked and immediately asked.

"We also sent people to Nanyang to collect a large number of sacks, but instead of filling them with earth and stones, we exchanged them for all the gunpowder and shells of the artillery battalion!" Zhang Kuishan said in a tone full of serenity.

The red lady was stunned for a moment, thinking of the possible scene, her body immediately shuddered fiercely, this method is really

"Commander Zhang is really clever, with such a method, Li Zicheng will inevitably be unable to prevent it, and defeat is just around the corner!" The red lady smiled.

The two looked at each other.

"Someone, send an order to Yang Kun of Nanyang to immediately collect more than a thousand sacks and send them to Cangmang Mountain!"

As the military order reached Nanyang, Yang Kun immediately began to collect sacks from the entire Nanyang.

In just half a day, Yang Kun sent thousands of sacks, and they are still being shipped one after another!

Under Zhang Kuishan's orders, the artillery battalion stopped the shelling and secretly packed all shells and gunpowder into sacks.
