Dianchong, the southwest is by the mountains and rivers, the southwest corner is the high mountain and long ridge, towering into the clouds and named Tianguo Ling, there is Huai water flowing out from the northwest of the ridge, flowing to the north of the city through the northwest of the city and turning to the east of the city, confluence with the small source Huaishui of the east flow of Lingnan, becoming the source of the moat of Dianchong.

The moat excavated in the southeast is close to the city wall, the city wall is made of bricks and stones, about two zhang high, the brick wall of one zhang high is built on the city again, the square hole is opened in the wall, the brick is paved, and the floor pavilion is built on the board.

The pavilion is on the erection house, the building is built on the house, together with the city wall, the high one has six or seven zhang, the low one has four or five zhang, the attic is by the mountain and the water, it is majestic and majestic, the gull tail is high and warped, and the wind blows the clouds.

This city was built by the king of Linyi more than 100 years ago, Fanhuda, and it is a new capital built on the model of the Central Plains city, and it is the best prop for the kings of Linyi to show the national prestige of Linyi.

The city has four gates, the east gate is the main gate, and there is a moat outside the city, which is enough to consume a large number of the lives of the invading enemy soldiers.

The drawbridge at the east gate has been put away, and a large number of Linyi soldiers are bending their bows and arrows in the attic, ready to shoot the enemy troops approaching the city, a urn of and urine is carried up to the city tower and begins to heat up, and the rolling wood and stones that have been prepared at the head of the city are also ready, waiting for the enemy to come and die.

The enemy came quickly, but the garrison was not slow to react, and before the winner was decided on the estuary, the city gate was closed, and the defenders had already reacted when the opposing army approached the city.

Although the soldiers were a little panicked, at least most of them had already climbed to the top of the city to prepare for battle, and they had already stockpiled supplies to defend the city, so they would not be caught off guard.

At this time, the enemy army was building shelves in the open space a hundred paces away from the city, some looked like moats, and more looked like they were building ladders or siege towers.

It seemed that the timbers had been prepared in advance, and had been assembled in a fixed pattern, and in less than half an hour more than a dozen tall shelves had risen up, but they did not look like ladders or siege towers.

There were many people in the attic of the city who kept pouring water outward, soaking the wooden planks outside the attic to prevent the enemy from setting fire with rockets, and the distance of more than 100 steps made the defenders feel that the opponent's elevated roads were not threatening, because at this distance, the lethality of bows and arrows was almost negligible, let alone rockets.

Except for the crossbow, there are no weapons that can inflict substantial damage on the city walls from a hundred paces away, and the city is protected by walls and moats, and the defenders feel that the scene at the mouth of the river will not be repeated.

The enemy's magic is too terrifying, but now it is more than a hundred steps away from the city, thinking that the other party cannot hurt the defenders at this distance, they are confident that they will hold on to the reinforcements around them, but the attack that follows is beyond the expectations of the soldiers of Linyi.

The horn of the enemy position sounded, and a long wooden pole on an elevated platform suddenly turned, throwing a huge fireball into the city wall.

The fireball arced through the air, grazed a high attic, and fell into a house in the city, and the rising pillar of fire ignited the thatched roof, and before the defenders could react, another fireball flew over and landed in the open space outside the city walls, splashing countless sparks.

The enemy army can attack the city at a distance of more than 100 paces with the help of weapons!

The defender became nervous and asked the soldiers to prepare a large number of buckets and cloth in order to deal with the upcoming fire attack, and there was a commotion on the enemy position outside the city for a while, and the other side seemed to be adjusting the elevated road, and after a while, the horn sounded again, and more than ten fireballs flew towards the city wall one after another.

More than half of the fireballs hit the attic at the head of the city, and the burning oil splattered out, igniting flames everywhere they went, even if the defenders beat them with wet cloths: even the burning oil could ignite the damp cloths that put out the fires.

Only buckets of water could be poured on it to temporarily suppress the fire, but the frequency of the enemy's elevated projectile fire was very fast, and after a few rounds, the smoke was billowing from the east city, and the attic on the city wall had turned into torches, and the archers could not stay and could only withdraw, and the suppression ability outside the city suddenly weakened.

The attic of the city wall, which is used to show the majesty of the capital of Linyi, has the effect of painting snakes at this time.

Several moats spanned the moat, and several pointed wooden donkeys had just been built to move through the moats to the city walls, and one of them was heading directly towards the East Gate Drawbridge, apparently to break the drawbridge and destroy the city gates.

The defenders endured the smoke and pushed the grinding disc-sized stones to the gap above the city gate hole for backup, and the stones weighing dozens or even hundreds of catties fell at a height of about two zhang, and any pointed wooden donkey could not carry it, let alone the rush products built in a hurry.

At the top of the city, archers endured the smoke and fire to fire their arrows, but the arrows had no effect on the pointed wooden donkeys, and the defenders could only watch as the other side crossed the moat bridge against the suspended drawbridge.

The defenders held their breath as the pointed wooden donkey smashed through the drawbridge, and then slowly entered the doorway, where the soldiers above the doorway looked down to make sure it was correct, and then pushed the stone towards the gap.

There was a muffled sound, and the stone smashed against the pointed wooden donkey, but it only dented, but not smashed.

The Pointed Wooden Donkey was more sturdy than expected, but the falling rocks of the defenders still helped: the enemy soldiers in the Pointed Wooden Donkey fled, running out despite the arrows in their backs.

Behind the city gate, the soldiers of Linyi pushed the knife cart to block the door opening, and at this moment, the soldiers close to the city gate seemed to hear a "hissing" sound from the outside of the city gate, and some choking smell came, as if something was burning rapidly.

Is it a fire attack?

The soldier's doubts did not last long, only a loud bang was heard, and in an instant the world became silent, and the light and fire broke through the city gate to envelop them, and then there was a violent tremor that seemed to shake the mountains.

With a thunderous sound, a burst of smoke rose from the east gate of Dianchong City, mixed with a large number of bricks and tiles and human limbs and broken arms, and the Lin Yi soldiers on the city walls on both sides were shocked to the ground, and the slang soldiers of the Zhou army who helped the battle outside the city were also frightened and pale.

When the smoke cleared, the east gate of Dianchong City was gone, replaced by a ruined wall that could easily be walked through to enter the city.

The sound of trumpets sounded like a tide, and several moats and bridges moved quickly towards the moat in front of the ruins, driven by manpower, followed by countless Zhou soldiers and soldiers of the Auxiliary Army, holding various weapons, cheering and charging towards the breach.

The soldiers of Linyi in the city were frightened by the thunder bombardment just now, and they no longer had the heart to stop their mouths, regardless of the loud reprimand of the generals, they scattered like frightened birds.

On the side of the dirt road, Xiyang Wang Yuwenwen did not appreciate the black smoke rising into the sky, but looked at a stone tablet on the side of the road and asked Wang Wei beside him: "What is written on this broken tablet?" Can Jingwen be recognized? ”

"Well, I don't know Sanskrit."

"Can't read Sanskrit? Doesn't Jingwen have a lot of knowledge of Buddhist scriptures? ”

"My lord, all the translations I read below are Chinese."

A general hurriedly ran forward: "Great King, this tablet is engraved with the deeds of King Fan Huda of Linyi." ”

"Van Huda?" Yuwen Wen heard the words and read these three words several times, and then asked Wang Hao: "Could it be Fan Huda, the grandson of Fan Wen, the king of Linyi?" ”

"It should be."

"Oh, Fan Wen, who slaughtered the corpses of the Han people in Rinan and bulldozed the Xijuan City, what is written on this tablet seems to be the great achievements of his grandson..."

Yuwen Wen looked at the stele expressionlessly, didn't say anything, the atmosphere was a little wrong, and at this time, Tian Zhengyue, who was dressed all over his body, came to receive the order: "King, the east gate of Dianchong City has been broken by our army, what should I do next, please show the king." ”

"Didn't the widow already say it beforehand? I want to surprise King Linyi. ”

"My Majesty, this matter... The last general would like to ask for instructions again. ”

"That's it..."Yu Wenwen groaned, looking at Dian Chong City in the distance, "His hero, my enemy." ”

His eyes flashed with fire: "In this case, the widow repeats it again, slaughter the city." ”
