Chapter 915: Persuasion Failed, Heavy Artillery Feint
Abdullah yelled loudly, but Mo Changrong shook his head and sighed, and replied loudly, "Abdullah, you are dying, don't talk so damn about it." You are such a Jiba thing, guarding the lonely city, surviving for a long time, what kind of bird king are you! Listen, now this city of Kashgar has been surrounded by hundreds of thousands of my legions, and all the soldiers and horses are already in the wings! Originally, for you Tartars, Lao Tzu was intent on killing all of you and exterminating all of you dogs, but I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have compassion and don't want to kill like this, so I sent this town to surrender, which is considered your luck. Let me tell you, as long as you lay down your arms and go out of the city to surrender, then our army can wait for a way out. If you don't agree, you will definitely capture Kashgar, and the whole city will be slaughtered, and no chickens and dogs will be left! ”
Yarkand King Abdullah's face was very embarrassed, and he wanted to scold him back, but Mo Changrong's words were full of weight and so ruthless, so that he had to think about what would happen if he refused strongly.
Mo Changrong looked at his face, and saw that his cruel words had touched the sore spot of Abdullah, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and shouted loudly, "Abdullah, to tell you the truth, now your Yarkand Khanate, only this last Kashgar city, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, can be described as internal and external difficulties, isolated, and able to confront my hundreds of thousands of troops!" The final destruction of your Yarkand Khanate is predestined! What's more, your army is scarce, trapped in a lonely city, even if our army does not attack the city, how can you wait for the food to run out? If it really arrives that our army will capture the city of Kashgar and start a killing spree, you will regret it, but it will be too late! But it is a pity that you have a chance to live, but you finally died under the sword soldiers, which is not only lighter than a feather, but also spurned by the world for eternity, what is the point of being a vain ghost in vain? ”
Abdullah's face turned red and white when Mo Changrong said it, and he subconsciously glanced at the soldiers next to him, but found that the Ye soldiers on the left and right were all looking at him with a pitiful look, and the content in their eyes was known without asking.
Seeing Abdullah and the people next to him like this, Mo Changrong was secretly complacent, so he shouted loudly, "Abdullah, this town knows that the reason why you have not surrendered is nothing more than waiting for reinforcements from the Dzungar Khanate, but just a few days ago, more than 100,000 reinforcements from the Dzungar Khanate have been wiped out by our army in the Ushi area, if you are still wishful to wait for them to come to help, isn't it a fool's dream?!" Now that you are waiting for a lonely city, it is already a danger of exhaustion, so why do you have to seek death?! This town still hopes that you can recognize the situation as soon as possible, don't act in vain, and don't make such cruel jokes with the lives of the soldiers and civilians in the city. If you are willing to repent and return in time, my Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has promised that all the soldiers and soldiers will save their lives and not kill any of them. and even for the merit of surrender, each with a reward. As for King Abdullah, if you are willing to surrender to our Tang Empire, you will never treat you badly, and your family's lives and property can also be preserved. Even if you don't want to surrender, if you can surrender the city and surrender, and don't use the sword, our army can let you go. How's that, it's good enough, right? Now in this critical season, where to go, I hope you think deeply! ”
Abdullah's eyes were dull and his expression stiffened, as if he didn't know how to answer Mo Changrong's words next.
Although Mo Changrong's words are ugly, they are also extremely right.
Now that the Dzungar Khanate's reinforcements have been completely wiped out, and there is no foreign aid for itself, if it wants to continue to fight against itself, the final outcome will be the destruction of the city and the army, and the sacrifice of himself and his subordinates is really worthless.
Thinking of this, Abdullah couldn't help but let out another long sigh.
So, now that I am here, do I want to agree with the persuasion of the Tang army to surrender and surrender to the Tang army in this Kashgar?
Just when he was hesitating, Mo Changrong under the city was already waiting impatiently, he beckoned to the back, and those Tang Army gunners understood and had already started to act.
"Look, the king, the artillery of the Don Army is out of battle!"
Abdullah, who was meditating at the head of the city, heard the silent shouts of the soldiers next to him, and suddenly came back to his senses from his thoughts.
Following the direction of the soldier's arm, Abdullah was horrified to see that on every side of Kashgar, from the densely surrounded Tang army array, ninety heavy artillery pieces of the same size were launched, each lined up in a straight line, and slowly pushed forward together. These heavy cannons that move forward silently, shining faintly silver in the reflection of the morning sun.
A total of 360 steel heavy dragon bombarders with a silver gray light were slowly pushed by the Tang gunners to a kilometer outside the city gates. Next, the Don gunners began to fix the gun mounts, adjust the angle of fire, reload gunpowder and shells, and soon made preparations for battle.
These three hundred and sixty heavy dragon cannons were lined up along the right side of the northern city wall, majestic and majestic, and the muzzles of the black holes, its dignified momentum, made the enemy troops defending the city who were already panicked and nervous begin to weaken their legs and feet.
Originally, the number of artillery pieces in Mo Changrong's Eleventh Town was only ninety, but because the Tang Army went north to attack the reinforcements of the Dzungar Department, this large number of artillery pieces was inconvenient to carry, so they were all handed over to Mo Changrong to carry to Kashgar.
And the king of the Yarkand Khanate, Abdullah, although he had fought with the Tang army under the city of Luo, it was also the first time he had seen such a terrible cannon, and his face was suddenly covered with cold sweat.
It is conceivable that if the Tang army is allowed to attack the city like this, it will definitely cause extremely terrible damage and blows to the city wall of Kashgar. No matter how high and thick the Kashgar city wall is, under the continuous attacks of the Tang Army, the result of being finally broken is probably doomed.
So, do you want to surrender to the Tang Army?
This thought, as soon as it flashed in Abdullah's mind, was immediately rejected by him.
No, you must not surrender the Don Army!
As the king of a country, and the lord of the Western Regions, how can he surrender to these Han dogs for the sake of his life.
What's more, if you don't even have the courage to fight a battle, and surrender the city to the Tang army, then the face of the entire royal family will be lost by yourself to your children and grandchildren and wives and concubines, even if Li Xiao is willing to let them go, they will survive in the Tang Kingdom, and they will never be able to raise their heads.
Thinking of this, Abdullah's face turned hideous, and he yelled at Mo Changrong under the city: "Don't talk nonsense!" I am the king of the Western Regions, the lord of the Yarkand Khanate, how can I surrender to the Han dogs! Even if an eagle dies, it will not be a slave to a wild dog. If you have the ability, you can go straight to the siege!
"Good! There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no door to hell for you to come! If you are killing yourself, then this town will fulfill you! You will go to the eighteen levels of hell, but you should not regret it! ”
Seeing that this Abdullah was so stubborn, Mo Changrong smiled coldly, and a hideous look flashed on his face, he didn't say anything more, and immediately pulled his horse back to the battle with a group of guards.
At the same time, Na Abdullah also snorted coldly, and hurriedly left from the city, preparing to arrange for the soldiers and horses in the city, as well as a group of young men urgently recruited from the city to come to defend the city.
Soon, with the artillery in place, the siege of the Don Army officially began.
In fact, Mo Changrong's attack was on Li Xiao's order to go to Kashgar City tentatively, so as to conduct an actual fire reconnaissance before the main force of the Tang Army arrived.
However, the Tang army's such a large-scale feint attack was extremely vigorous, which made the defenders in the city frightened and panicked.
The defenders at the head of the city were horrified to see that in the midst of the deafening horns and rumbling war drums, 360 steel heavy dragon bombardment guns shining with silver and gray light were slowly pushed by the Tang gunners to a distance of about 1,000 meters outside the city gates on all sides of Kashgar before they stopped on the spot.
Next, the Don gunners began to fix the gun mounts, adjust the angle of fire, reload gunpowder and shells, and soon made preparations for battle.
This concentrated all the 360 heavy dragon guns of the four towns, lined up along the north wall of Kashgar City, majestic and majestic, with an invincible spirit that swept the world. The muzzle of the black hole is like countless thick phallic objects pointing proudly, straight towards the high Kashgar city wall opposite.
The awe-inspiring momentum of these artillery, even if it was just seen from a distance, made the Ye army defending the city weak in fright.
Everyone could almost intuitively feel that these behemoth-like artillery pieces were already so terrifying, and one could imagine how amazing their attack and destructive power would be once fired.
Kashgar's commander-in-chief, Abdullah, Rao has been in battle for a long time, and when he saw that the Tang army was able to launch so many huge artillery pieces that had never been seen before to attack the city, his face was dripping with cold sweat, and his face turned pale instantly.
The artillery of the Tang Army is completely different from the ordinary artillery such as the Hongyi cannon, the general cannon, the second general cannon, the Shenwei cannon, and the tiger squat cannon that he has seen in the past, whether it is the scale or the momentum, it is almost a world of difference.
So, in the case of such a powerful heavy artillery bombarding the city intensively, can he really be as Fang Cai, swearing that he can hold on to this......
Thinking of this, Abdullah, the main general of Kashgar, only felt that even breathing began to become difficult.
And at this moment, all the panicked defenders saw from a distance that a person who looked like a captain in the Tang army formation raised the red flag in his hand.
"Ready!"
"Put!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
……
The muzzle of each of the 360 heavy dragon bombards that fired 32 pounds of shells immediately erupted with crimson afterburners and dazzling golden fire, and dense and choking white smoke rose up and spread across the sky, and 360 huge black round iron bullets, with the whistling sound of death, slammed into the right side of the four walls of Kashgar City.
The huge impact sound that shattered the eardrum sounded continuously, and the 360 jet-black 32-kilogram iron bullets, as if they had eyes, hit the four walls of Kashgar City fiercely in an evenly distributed state.
On the walls of the entire city, hundreds of large holes arranged neatly and evenly appeared in an instant, and at the edge of each big hole, the thick and cracked lines were as dense as spider webs, spreading unscrupulously to the siege, and the large city wall bricks splashed and cracked, a piece of dust and mist filled the air, and the entire city wall was trembling violently.
On the city wall, a large number of Ye Jun who were shocked to the ears, eyes, nostrils and mouth bleeding together, everyone was shocked to the blood surged, and the eyes were shrouded in the choking dust and mist, and the city wall under their feet was shaking violently like a pendulum, and there were several small copper cannons or small iron cannons at the head of the city, which were shocked and rushed down from the city wall, with several loud noises, turning into scrap metal.
At the same time, as many as 200 unstable defenders fell from the city wall screaming, and then fell into bloody meatloaf.
The Ye army soldiers guarding the northern city wall suddenly became greatly confused.
At this time, on the northern city wall, there was no need for people to organize at all, and immediately hundreds of frightened defender soldiers, as if they had seen the most terrifying thing in the world, screamed in horror, turned around and fled down the road of the city wall.
"Don't run! You shameful people, come back to this king! ”
Dusty and dishevelled like a native by the bombardment, Abdullah coughed violently, stood up with great difficulty, and immediately shouted loudly at the fleeing soldiers.
It was only in this chaos that although he shouted hoarsely, it had little effect, and the routs fled with complete oblivion of his presence.
Beside Abdullah, a fleeing soldier passed by him wailing, as if he had not heard the supreme commander's warning.
Angry and angry, Abdullah pulled out his sharp waist knife and stabbed it fiercely, and with a pop, stabbed the fleeing guy from back to chest.
The fleeing soldier shook a little, and then a noodle bag that had lost its support fell to the ground and died.
"If you see it, you dare to leave your post without permission and run away from your post on your own, all of them will end up like this!" Abdullah, whose face was splattered with blood, drew a bloodied sword and yelled at the fleeing soldiers.
Seeing that King Abdullah was mad and furious and kept killing people, his guards did not dare to slack off, and they all rushed out one by one, slashing and slaying the fleeing soldiers, and the walls of the city were full of wailing.
It was only with great difficulty that Abdullah re-stabilized the situation and restored calm to the entire northern wall.
At this moment, his heart was full of anger, but he felt even more inexplicably sad.
Hateful, hateful now, in addition to being passively beaten, what countermeasures can there be?!
The Tang Army's steel heavy dragon hammer cannon can hit a distance of more than 1,000 meters smoothly and accurately, while more than 20 large and small artillery pieces in its own city can only hit an accurate range of more than 500 meters in the end.
Fuck, what kind of shitty fight is this!
