Chapter 286: The City Has Fallen
"General, what shall we do?" Looking at the ship approaching again, the guard looked down a little overwhelmed, and there was no way to take the turtle shell below.
The rolling wood can't be smashed, the rolling stones are useless, and the gold juice can't see the effect, so he can only watch the opposite ship show off his power under his castle tower, and even Quan Gai Suwen has an impulse to lead the troops to rush out, so that the Tang people know the power of their four knives, but soon Quan Gai Suwen calmed down, and he can't be so impulsive.
There are still 50,000 troops on the opposite side, and looking at the boring provocative actions of those generals, I feel that the other party is just waiting for me to rush out, and I am definitely not the opponent of the Tang people in the field.
The east gate is filled with explosives, and Li Jing at the west gate is also waiting, looking at the defenders at the head of the city, squinting his eyes and thinking about countermeasures, the new city is not very easy to break, the head of the city is more than ten meters high, and if you want to go up the city wall with siege equipment such as ladders, you need to pay a lot of casualties among the soldiers, and you are too emperor.
"What time is it?"
His men looked at the simple clock: "Nine thirty minutes!" β
"I don't know what's going on over there!" After Li Jing muttered to himself, he looked at the city wall, did not give the order to attack, but just watched quietly, and the 30,000 army was waiting at the west gate, waiting for a loud bang from the emperor.
Compared with the calmness of the Tang army, Yang Shouchen, the guard of the West City Gate, was constantly patrolling back and forth on the city tower, constantly boosting morale.
"Cheer me up, the Tang people are here, whoever can kill a Tang person, reward ten taels of silver, the Tang people are not terrible, they are all grown up in meat, Lao Tzu also killed a lot of Tang people back then, and he went down with a knife......"
Yang Shouchen boosted the morale of the defenders for a long time, and the morale of the defenders was high, but when he found that the Tang army outside the city did not attack, he felt like a fist hit the air, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"Damn, what are the Tang people doing!"
Yang Shouchen frowned, then thought for a while, and began to call for the Tang army in the distance, wanting to take advantage of the strong morale on his side to deal a good blow to the morale of the Tang army.
"Tang Jun listen, retreat quickly now, I will spare you if you don't die, otherwise you will ...... later"
"Are you all rats? Come to my new city but stop outside the city! β
ββ¦β¦β
Yang Shouchen scolded very happily, but Li Jing was unmoved, but as time went by, his brows tightened slightly, there shouldn't be anything wrong with the Emperor Taishang, right? looked at the herald beside him: "How is the situation on the Emperor's side?" β
"Back to General, there is no news for the time being!"
"What about the South Gate and the North Gate?"
"There is no news for the time being!"
Niu Jinda and Wei Chigong at the south gate and the north gate were also in a hurry, but they remembered Yu Zhiqian's words, no matter how the other party provoked, they would not do it, but the guards of the two gates were different from Yang Shouchen, Niu Jinda and Wei Chigong were already very happy if they did not take the initiative to attack the city, so they would not take the initiative to provoke.
"Waiting for half an hour, half an hour if there is no news, prepare to attack the city!"
As soon as the words fell, a loud bang suddenly came from the east.
"Boom!"
There was a huge explosion, and Li Zhen felt the ground tremble, and then a huge explosion occurred in the east.
Two minutes ago, outside the East Side.
I saw that a frame of the warboard suddenly began to retreat, Quan Gai Suwen watched the warp leave, a little puzzled, his subordinates have been watching the surrounding situation, making sure that the Tang people did not dig a tunnel, but the warp came for a while and left to make him confused.
It was at this time that a guard noticed a hint of difference: "General, you see they seem to have left something!" β
After finishing speaking, he pointed to the ground, and saw that after the ship left, it would leave a rope-like thing on the ground, and Quangai Suwen looked at it, instinctively feeling that this was not a good thing, and he needed to destroy this thing, and was ready to order the gold juice to be poured.
But at this time, in the army of the Yutang Empire, the longbowmen who had been prepared for a long time suddenly exerted their strength, these bows and arrows were different from the traditional bows and arrows, with small pulley sets added to them, some of which were like competitive bows for later events, which greatly increased the range of bows and arrows.
"Put!"
With Xue Rengui's order, 10,000 arrows formed a rain of arrows in the air and flew directly to the city wall of the new city, and the defenders of the new city were suddenly attacked, and it was within what they thought was a safe distance, they couldn't help but be startled, but they all reacted quickly, some soldiers hid behind the battlement wall, and the sword and shield soldiers were in front of them, raising their shields.
However, even so, the hasty defense still caused some casualties on the head of the new city, and Quangai Suwen brandished his long knife to open the falling arrows, and at the same time loudly ordered the defenders to defend.
At this time, the soldiers in the stern also retreated to a certain safe area, and then some soldiers opened the fire fold that had been prepared long ago, and ignited the fuse left behind, and then the soldiers in the stern began to accelerate towards the main formation, this group of soldiers knew the power of gunpowder very well, so they knew what kind of effect this thing would have after it exploded, if the distance was too close, people might die.
After the fuse was ignited, a burst of white smoke came out, and the fuse burned rapidly, and at this time, Quangai Suwen noticed the white smoke again, and shouted: "Extinguish the things below, extinguish!" β
Izumi Gai Suwen didn't know what it was, but as Bai Yan got closer and closer to the city wall, he suddenly felt that he was shrouded in danger, Izumi Gai Suwen was very sensitive to such things as intuition, and many times it was his intuition that saved him, so when he had this feeling in his heart, he realized that something might be wrong.
After hearing the order, the surrounding defenders immediately picked up the gold juice that had been somewhat cooled next to it, and prepared to pour it down, but it was too late.
The lead had already ignited the gunpowder, only to hear a loud noise from under the city wall not far away, followed by the second, third, and last sound like a thunderstorm, and Quangai Suwen only felt that the city wall under his feet began to shake violently, and then, Quangai Suwen saw the new city built by Goguryeo with a lot of effort, and the city wall suddenly collapsed like papier-mΓ’chΓ©.
Quangai Suwen saw that the city wall not far from him had cracked, and then collapsed with a bang, along with the soldiers, one by one.
Just when Quangai Suwen thought that his city wall would also collapse, the collapse had stopped, and Quangai Suwen and the soldiers around him stood in horror in horror, because they saw that the city walls on both sides of them had all collapsed, some of the city walls had collapsed partially, and some had collapsed directly in pieces, revealing a vacancy of more than ten meters.
Looking at the past from Yu Zhiqian's point of view, he saw that the original city wall of the new city was blown into a dozen scattered islands after the explosion, and some lucky places had more than ten meters of city walls that did not collapse, among which the position of the city tower above the city gate was the most significant.
The entire eastern wall of the new city now revealed more than a dozen huge gaps, each of which was at least five or six meters wide, and one gap was fatal for the defenders of the new city, let alone so many fatal gaps.
"Let's attack!"
Yu Zhiqian looked at the new city wall that had been blown open with so many gaps, touched his chin, shook his head, and was not very satisfied, although it seemed that the explosion effect this time was good, but it did not achieve Yu Zhiqian's expected effect, according to Yu Zhiqian's expectations, this new city wall should collapse in its entirety.
"It seems that after I go back, I will train some civil engineering professionals, as well as directional blasting talents, otherwise this city wall will not be professional!"
Yu Zhiqian said to himself, at the same time, the army in front of him moved, and the city wall was blown up so many gaps, Yu Zhiqian and many generals knew that this was the power of explosives, but many soldiers did not know that this was explosives, thinking that if they had divine help, after hearing the order to attack, one by one they were like chicken blood, and began to rush forward with weapons.
"Kill!"
I saw Xu Zhuyi rushing to the front first, holding a huge mace in his hand and rushing towards a gap, followed by a group of soldiers, this group of sword and shield soldiers, according to the normal siege rhythm, should be holding a shield to rush forward, but now the city wall of the new city has collapsed into pieces, and the defenders who are still standing on the city wall are all so frightened that they are paralyzed on the ground, or they look blankly at the Yutang Imperial soldiers rushing outside.
There is no way to defend at all, even if the defense relies on this point, it can't be defended, and in less than two minutes, the soldiers of the Yutang Empire have already rushed to the city, and Xu Zhu directly controls his war horse and rushes into the city.
The defenders of the new city behind the city wall also suffered heavy casualties, some of them were stoned to death when the city wall collapsed, and some of them were not stoned to death and were at a loss to watch the city wall collapse, some of the brains reacted quickly, and immediately turned around and fled towards the city, and the soldiers who reacted slowly saw a strong man rushing into the city, holding a mace, and smashing them on the head.
"Kill!"
The soldiers frantically poured into the new city from the gap, Quan Gai Suwen stood on the city tower in a daze and looked at the soldiers of the Yutang Empire who were pouring in below, at a loss, the city was broken, and he didn't know what was going on, the city wall was directly breached, Quan Gai Suwen, felt that the strength of his body was drained.
Just now he was still fantasizing that he could lead the army to the first few waves of the Yutang Empire's offensive, and then the reinforcements arrived, and he led the reinforcements to counterattack the Yutang Empire.
"I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled! β
Quan Gai Suwen roared loudly, pulled out his two knives, and was about to jump down and fight to the death with the soldiers of the Yutang Empire, but he was not a brainless person, grabbed a dumbfounded soldier and slapped him hard: "Put the hanging basket down, I will kill the Emperor of the Yutang Empire!" β
"Yes, General!"
When the soldier heard Quangai Suwen's words, he immediately ran to the back and took out the rope, and Quangai Suwen checked his weapon and looked at the rest of the soldiers: "You just hang me down, as for the rest, you can do whatever you want!" β
That being said, the general meaning is, I may be dying, if you want to surrender, surrender!
Yu Zhiqian looked at Quangai Suwen, who was wearing gold armor on the city tower, sitting in a hanging basket and slowly descending, and looked at Chen Qingzhi not far away: "How about I handed it over to you?" I want to live! β
"Don't worry, the emperor will come when he goes!"
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, he nodded and looked at Hua Xiong and Guan Yu not far away, these two people are now school captains, there is no way, the Yu Tang Empire is full of talents, Yu Zhiqian does not have much feeling for historical celebrities now, Hua Xiong Guan Yu wants to be promoted, you can, you can go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions.
"Whoa!"
The two immediately followed Chen Qingzhi towards the city tower, and Quan Gai Suwen came down from the city tower very smoothly, because after receiving the order, all the soldiers bypassed Quan Gai Suwen's position, and no one took advantage of him in the hanging basket to attack, and Yu Zhiqian purely wanted to see what the ancient fighting soldiers looked like.
I saw it once before, that is, when Hua Xiong and Xu Zhu and others fought, but the battle ended without the third brother converging, so Yu Zhiqian didn't have much sense, this time it was different, Quangai Suwen, how to say it, he was also the person who left his name in history, known as the first fierce general of Goguryeo, Yu Zhiqian wanted to see how much he could fight.
He sent Chen Qingzhi on his side, although Chen Qingzhi was not known for his ability in history, but how to say that he was also a general, it could be regarded as a very good name for Quan Gai Suwen, otherwise, Yu Zhiqian asked the archers to shoot a volley, and there was a rain of arrows in the steamed bun blood case every minute.
Chen Qingzhi patted his horse, held a spear in his hand, and rushed to a place about fifty meters away from the city gate, and the surrounding soldiers also bypassed, slipping out of an open space, Quangai Suwen jumped out of the hanging basket, and also understood that this person was here to find himself alone, pulled out his long knife from behind him, moved his body, and said loudly.
"I am the Goguryeo general Quangai Suwen, who is the general, I will not kill the nameless!"
Very crazy, very loud, although Yu Zhiqian couldn't hear anything clearly, but someone told Yu Zhiqian about their conversation, Yu Zhiqian only felt that if this guy was in it, he would definitely not live for ten chapters, too special to be owed, thinking of writing, Yu Zhiqian thought of the big shopkeeper in Chang'an City, it was said that he was not going to open a black shop, he concentrated on writing, and wrote a new book called "The War of the Brokers", whose pen name is Feng Thirty-five, a very strange name!
On the battlefield, Chen Qingzhi heard Quangai Suwen's words, slowly raised his spear, stared at Quangai Suwen, and slowly spoke: "Yutang Empire Yongwei Marquis, the commander of the inner guard, the crown prince Shaobao, the emperor himself is the general of Zhendong, Chen Qingzhi!" β
Hearing Chen Qingzhi's words, Quan Gai Suwen's eyes lit up: "Okay, good, next year today will be your death day, kill!" After finishing speaking, he leaned forward and rushed towards Chen Qingzhi with two knives.
