Babuhai saw from a distance that in front of the Tang Army's artillery array, a person who looked like an officer, holding a red flag in his hand, waved it down vigorously. At the same time, he shouted violently, and 100 steel heavy dragon hammers of huge caliber immediately fired in unison.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

。。。。。。

In the continuous sound of huge cannons that shattered the eardrums, the muzzles of 100 heavy dragon bombers immediately floated crimson afterburners, flashing with dazzling golden fire, and in the dense billowing white smoke, 100 huge jet-black iron bullets weighing 32 pounds, with the whistle of death, slammed into the northern wall of Hetuara City.

In the dull and heavy sound of huge impact, these 100 jet-black 32-pound iron bullets, as if they had eyes, hit the entire northern city wall fiercely in an evenly distributed state.

Nearly a hundred large holes appeared in the northern wall of the entire city of Hetuara in an instant, and at the edge of each large hole, the thick and cracked lines were as dense as spider webs, and they spread unscrupulously to the siege, and the bricks of the large city wall were splashed and cracked, and a dust and mist filled the city, and the entire northern city wall was trembling violently as if it had asthma.

On the north city wall, a large number of Qing soldiers 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 dust and fog that choked their noses, and the city wall under their feet shook violently like a pendulum, and nearly 100 Qing soldiers who were unstable on their feet fell from the city wall screaming like broken leaves blown by the wind, and then fell into meat pies.

The Tang army's fierce heavy artillery salvo this time actually caused the northern wall of Hetuara City to fall into a lot of chaos in an instant.

Those Qing soldiers who had battlefield experience were in good condition, but a large number of young men and women who were shocked to the point of bleeding from their mouths and noses, and whose faces were covered with dust, screamed in horror, turned around and fled from the road of the city wall.

"Don't run! Come back to Lao Tzu and continue to defend the city wall! Those who violate military orders will be killed! ”

Hit by the surging waves of sand and dust, the Babu Sea, which was covered in dust and hair, looked extremely embarrassed as if it had just come out of the desert.

He coughed violently, stood up against the battlements of the city wall, and roared at the fleeing Qing troops. It was only in the midst of this confusion that although he shouted hoarsely, it had little effect, and a young man, who had been deaf in both ears, ran past Babu Hai with a wail, completely ignoring the warning of the supreme commander of the Qing army.

"Bastard, don't run!"

Babuhai was angry and angry, he drew his sharp sword from the ground, shouted angrily, stabbed the fleeing fellow from the back to the chest, and stabbed a big hole, and the fleeing young man's body shook a little, and he fell from the city wall and fell into a mess of meatloaf.

Finally, after Babuhai and his guards slashed and killed seven or eight people one after another, these beaten Qing troops re-stabilized, the escapees returned to their posts in fear, and the situation on the entire northern city wall stabilized slightly.

At this time, the gunners of the Tang Army, who had just finished the first round of salvo fire, were already clearing, charging, and reloading ammunition in preparation for the next round of shooting.

Babu Hague clenched, his eyes rolled, and then he ordered: "Put down the drawbridge, all the cavalry go out of the city to attack, and be sure to kill all the gunners of the Tang Army!" ”

"Order!"

Soon, the four hundred elite horsemen in the city lowered the drawbridge at the north gate, opened the city gate, and rushed out of the city together.

The four hundred cavalry had just crossed the drawbridge when they heard a bang behind them.

Some cavalrymen subconsciously turned their heads to look, but saw that the drawbridge was being pulled up by the soldiers at the head of the city, and the north gate had already been tightly closed.

For a while, the faces of all the cavalry were full of gloom and loneliness.

They knew that by doing this, Babu Hai had decided to use them as outcasts, and as soon as they led their army out of the city, there was only one way to go but to die on the battlefield.

Perhaps, this is the fate of the minions.

And seeing the Qing cavalry who came out of the city, they showed hesitation, and Babuhai couldn't bear it in his heart, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and his eyes were already blood-red.

"Brothers, come forward quickly, as long as you kill those Tang Army gunners, General Ben will definitely not treat you badly, after you come back, General Ben will personally celebrate your achievements!" Babu Hai shouted at the head of the city.

Hearing this encouragement from the commander, the cavalry who went out of the city also knew that what could they do but believe in these words with a lot of false elements. After all, the Qing military discipline was extremely strict, and those who disobeyed orders were to be executed immediately. So, they let out a beastly shout in unison, and then slammed the horse's belly, rushed forward towards the Tang army's artillery array in the distance.

The horses' hooves rumbled and the dust was flying, and on this midsummer morning, the cavalry of the Qing army galloped like arrows from the string, shooting at the artillery position of the Tang army.

When they reached about 300 paces away from that row of Tang artillery, a group of Qing cavalry scattered into a straight line, each of them was optimistic about the gunner in front of him, and while taking out his bow and arrows to aim, he slammed the horse's belly more and more vigorously, and rushed forward quickly.

The effective attack distance of the bow and arrow is sixty paces, so they should speed up and rush to this distance, so that those Tang gunners can taste the power of the Qing cavalry's swift bow and heavy arrows.

"Rush, rush over and shoot all these Nikans!"

After running closer and closer, a group of Qing cavalry roared loudly like a group of crazy beasts, and in the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, these Qing cavalry with bows and arrows pulled their bowstrings to the Tang gunners on the opposite side.

As long as they ran into the firing range, these Tang gunners resolutely escaped from the heavy arrows of the Qing army.

What these Qing cavalry didn't expect was that when it seemed to be going well, an accident happened.

All the Qing cavalry clearly saw that these Tang gunners were like a group of rabbits chased by eagles, turning around and fleeing behind, and behind them, a dense row of gunners appeared.

To be precise, it was two rows of more than 3,000 musketeers, because one row was standing and the other was kneeling, clothed in a sizzling fire rope, holding a loaded fire gun, and quickly took an aiming posture.

At this time, Babu Hai, who was observing with a clairvoyant mirror at the head of the city, his light brown pupils suddenly shrank into a little in horror.

Depend on! In the Tang army's array, there are even hidden firecrackers, now, our cavalry, which is scattered in a row, will not completely become the target of the beating? !

"Quick! , Mingjin, Mingjin, let them come back! ”

When the Babu Sea hissed and shouted, on the opposite side of the Tang army, with the shouting of a person who looked like a captain, the command flag waved down violently, and the two rows of firecrackers standing or kneeling, the three thousand firearms, suddenly fired together.

"Bang bang 。。。。。"

There was a dense sound of popping beans, which sounded violently, and the embers that floated from the mouth of the bell formed two bright yellow and dazzling lines of fire, and a large area of choking and thick white mist surged, instantly turning the entire Tang army into a fairyland on earth.

Of the 3,000 firearms, 2,600 were fired, and the 2,600 small lead bullets weighing three coins formed a dense curtain of death rain, roaring towards the Qing cavalry that was rushing wildly.

From the clairvoyant mirror, Babu Hai can clearly see that the rain of lead bullets that roared away shot the cavalry of the Qing army, either men or horses, who rushed on the opposite side.

At least nearly 350 Qing cavalrymen were shot at the moment of firing, and the screams of the cavalry were mixed with the mournful screams of the horses, like the laughter of death. The cavalry of the Qing army turned on their backs, and the entire cavalry formation that rushed forward fell into chaos and collapse in an instant.

It was only at this time that the sound of the Qing army's gold sounded properly, and it was too late.

The remaining cavalry of the Qing army, which was less than 40 cavalry, was already terrified, like headless flies, scurrying around in the wilderness.

Fortunately, the Tang army was too lazy to send troops to chase and kill them because they saw that their numbers were very small, and they had been beaten to the hood, and after scurrying around in the field for a while, they hurriedly pulled out their horses' heads and rushed back to the north gate to enter the city.

At the head of the north gate, Babu Hai, who saw this tragic scene clearly with a clairvoyant mirror, felt like a knife in his heart.

Well, his own cavalry attacked this time, but even a Tang army was killed, and they were all wiped out outside the city of Hetuala, damn it, this is not a battle at all, but a massacre!

The Tang Army is so fierce and ruthless, well-organized and sophisticated, are these soldiers and horses under him really the opponents of the Tang Army?

Thinking of this, Babu Hai felt himself, cold from head to toe.

Seeing the defeat of the Qing army, Li Xiao, the Duke of Tang Guo, who was in the rear of the Tang army in the north, flashed a cold and smug smile on his face.

Hmph, he has seen these tricks of the Qing army too many times, and it can be said that he has been able to capture them by hand.

Immediately, he coldly ordered: "The cavalry of the Qing army has been extinguished, continue to attack the city with artillery." ”

"Order!"

The commander of the Tang Army's artillery, the red flag in his hand, was raised high again.

"Ready!"

"Put!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

。。。。。。

Another hundred black 32-pound iron bullets roared in, and in the deafening sound of cannons, the broken bricks on the city wall flew like rain, and choking dust and mist flew up all over the sky.

The entire northern wall is covered with dense cobweb cracks, and the damage to the entire wall has reached a shocking level, like a dying patient struggling to die.

All the defending Qing troops, including Babuhai, felt that the city wall under their feet was shaking back and forth more violently, and as many as hundreds of Qing soldiers who had no time to lie down or hold on to it fell from the city wall with a scream. A large number of collapsed pheasant moats were also shaken down from under the city wall, falling apart, these quakes were smashed down from such a high position, and immediately scattered into fragments, burying those Qing troops who were shaken down, whether dead or alive.

There were also a few scattered cannons placed on the city, which were also thrown around like toys that had been shaken away, and fell from the city walls, and then fell to the ground in a pile of scrap copper and iron.

Under the heavy bombardment of the Tang army's heavy dragon bombardment, the city of Hetuala, which has been carefully built since the time of the old slaves, did not show at all that it was in a more solid state than the previous Lushun City and other places, and was also bombarded by the Tang army's Longzhou artillery to the bitter endeavor.

After being hit hard by the second time, the Qing defenders suddenly fell into even more serious confusion than during the first shelling.

Under such a fierce and violent force, in the face of such an absolute death that no manpower could resist at all, all the Qing troops on the northern city wall, who had been fighting for a long time, were also seriously damaged in confidence, and the morale that was originally not high suddenly dropped to the extent that it was almost impossible to do.

And those young men who were forcibly recruited to defend the city had already broken their courage, and many of them howled frantically, and immediately lost their weapons and fled for their lives.

At this time, there was no need for anyone to mobilize, and as soon as someone shouted, they immediately lost their posts, wailed and rushed down the city wall and road, and fled for their lives in a frenzy.

In the furious Babu Sea, when he was about to kill again, the deputy general Morgen, who was originally guarding the eastern city wall, rushed over in a panic and shouted to him: "Master, the Tang army's artillery is so sharp, this northern city wall can't be defended!" ”

"You, what did you say?!"

Babuhai glared at him with a blood-red face, his gaze so fierce that it could almost kill.

"Master, the Tang army's artillery is so accurate and fierce, and our army has no effective means of counterattack, this northern city wall will be destroyed by the Tang army sooner or later, we are here to defend hard, in addition to being blown up and killed together with the city wall, what can we do?"

Morgan fell to his knees in a hurry, frowning, and shouted to the Babu Sea with a sad face.

Listening to Morgen's shout, Babuhai's face was full of distortion and pain.

He had to admit that Morgen's words were reasonable, and they were the most correct decision in such a predicament.

Under such fierce and ferocious artillery fire from the Tang army, their so-called stubborn guards were nothing more than meaningless and futile deaths.

Into the, what kind of battle is this!

Just being beaten, unable to fight back, watching these dogs enter the Tang Army, rampantly and recklessly bombarding the city wall of Hetuara with heavy artillery, he has no way at all, but he can only be beaten passively like a turtle with a shrunken head, in this world, is there anything more aggrieved than this?

It's just that if such a hasty withdrawal order is given, what a blow it will be to the morale of all the defenders!

Babuhai's heart was very entangled, gritting his teeth and making a decision, and Morgen on the side hurriedly shouted: "Master, the third artillery bombardment of the Tang army is about to start again, and if we don't make a quick decision, there will only be more casualties among the soldiers of our defenders, so what's the point of sticking to it purely for the sake of face?" ”

Facing Morgan's anxious expression, Babu Hai let out a long sigh, his face full of gloom.

He pulled up Murgen, who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted: "Morgen, you are right, the Tang army's artillery is so fierce, it is meaningless to defend this northern wall. Then pass on the general's order, and let all the defenders of the city wall immediately retreat from the city, and at the entrances of the streets in the city, set up a formation to meet the enemy, and kill the enemy in the city! ”

"Huh! The master is wise! “

After hearing Babuhai's order to abandon the city wall, on the four walls, those Qing troops who were terrified of defending the city and the young and strong people who were conscripted immediately fled from the city wall in a hurry like a tidal wave that had retreated.

When he saw the Qing troops on the city walls retreating like a tide, a sneer crossed Li Xiao's resolute face.

He knew that this siege battle, which had no new ideas, was finally coming to an end.
