Early in the morning, Liu Cong ordered Wang Mi to take 50,000 people to garrison Jiandongmen, Shile to take 50,000 people to Dongyangmen, Liu Jing to take 50,000 people to Daxiamen, and Huyanyi to take 50,000 people to Tunguang Momen, thinking that the purpose was to contain the Jin army's strength and attack Ximingmen.

Everything is ready, Liu Cong orders the siege!

Liu Yao is the main general of the siege, he stood under the flag of the Chinese army, waved the flag, and pushed a hundred stone throwers to the front of the city to arrange for the opening, and the leading officer saw Liu Yao waving the flag and shouted: "Release!" ”

The basic structure of the stone thrower is to install a pole on a large wooden frame, and many ropes are tied to the rear end, and the front end is connected with a leather socket containing stone bullets with ropes.

After Zhao Jun's stone throwing machine has been improved, it can already launch large stones weighing up to 100 catties, but each stone throwing machine needs to be operated by dozens of people, and it is still extremely cumbersome.

Zhao Jun fired hundreds of carts in unison, one by one stone bullets whistled out, with a sharp whistle, after crossing countless parabolas in the sky, and then fell like a downpour in an instant, where the stone bullets went, either the wall was broken, or the soldiers and civilians were smashed, and the soldiers and civilians in Luoyang City were killed and wounded.

After the stone thrower was launched, Liu Yao commanded the siege of the city, and the collision car rushed out of the front of the formation under the push and support of hundreds of people, and went to storm the city gate, and the Jin army defending the city shot fiercely with arrows, and the crashing car broke down before it reached the city gate, Liu Yao let the cloud ladder be erected again, and ordered the sergeants to attack.

A cloud ladder on the city wall, 10,000 crossbowmen cover, Zhao soldiers climbed to the city, they were armed with scimitars, before they arrived at the city, the Jin army countless rolling stones and wood attacked, the ladder was also broken at the waist, a morning time, the Zhao army also failed to go up a soldier, Liu Yao ordered a pause, retreat five miles to set up a position.

Luoyang City is preparing for war in a panic, because it is not known when the Zhao army will attack the city again.

Jin Ziyan and several disciples of Dilongmen carried medicine boxes back and forth to bandage the wounds of the injured sergeants, and there was not much left of the Jin army's rolling stones and woods, Gou Xi then remembered Liu Kun's suggestion, and he ordered people to go out of the southern city to pull the luck, but I am afraid that the time is too late, if I go to the Ximing Gate to pick up the rolling stones and trees again and am afraid that Liu Yao will take advantage of the situation, I have to order the demolition of the houses to be used as wood, and then transport the rockery rocks in the palace to the city.

Just now, Zu Ti and Liu Kun helped the Jin army in the fierce battle with their fellow martial artists, and finally repelled the first charge of the Zhao army.

But just after lunch, Liu Cong personally came with 100,000 horses, it turned out that he was going to attack Luoyang with Liu Yao using wheel warfare!

Liu Yao spent an afternoon to prepare, and early the next morning, like Liu Yao, launched a new round of crazy attacks!

This time, there were not only stone bullets, but also rockets, and Luoyang City not only suffered heavy casualties, but also drowned in a sea of fire everywhere.

Liu Cong ordered the siege of the city, and a fierce battle began again!

Fellow martial artists all supported Ximingmen and Shangximen, and the Jin army desperately defended the city together, and launched hand-to-hand combat, although there were heavy casualties, but the Zhao army never attacked the city.

After two rounds of attacks, Liu Cong and Liu Yao rotated with each other, and for five days, the Jin army repelled several attacks by the Zhao army.

Liu Yao and Liu Cong saw that the casualties were also large, so they decided to reorganize the army for two days and then attack the city.

In Luoyang City, the Jin army was actively preparing for war, and the people also spontaneously supported the army, repairing the gaps made by stone bullets and helping to transport military supplies.

Zu Ti and others gathered in the dojo to discuss countermeasures.

Mo Dingfei said: "The Zhao army has 500,000 horses and strong troops, if we don't have foreign aid, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for a month, what can we do?" Brother Zu, think of a way! ”

Zu Ti said: "In terms of strength alone, our Great Jin has no advantage, and if this continues, Luoyang City will fall sooner or later." ”

Wei Huacun said: "Zhao Jun must not be allowed to succeed!" Even if we fight to the last person, we will not give up Luoyang City! ”

Liu Kun said: "Everyone, don't make noise, Brother Zu is right, if we continue to fight hard, even if we all die in battle, we won't be able to keep Luoyang City, and we have to find another way." ”

Jin Ziyan hurriedly said: "Brother Zu, you must think of a way, once the city is broken, hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang will suffer!" ”

Zu Ti said: "I thought about it all night last night, and there are three ways to save Luoyang. ”

Wei Huacun got up and said, "Which three ways?!"

"The first way is to ask Tao Kan to return to Shiluo to help Luo." Zu Ti Dao.

"General Tao is confronting Chen Min and Sun Jin, and now when he returns to the division, he will lose his previous achievements, and maybe he will come to attack Luoyang, then we will be attacked on both sides, and the imperial court will definitely not agree." Liu Kun said, and then asked, "Big brother, what is the second way?" ”

"The second way is to go to Liangzhou for help."

"Liangzhou?"

"Yes, Liangzhou has a stabbing history Zhang Liang guarded, and there is a fierce general named Beigong Chun under him, who has the courage to be unstoppable, good at using iron guns, and is known as "Gun Tyrant"! “

"Gunman?"

"That's not all, the key is that General Beigong has a heavy armored team, only 3,000 people, but it can be worth a million troops, well-known all over the world, if Zhang Liang can send General Beigong to support, Luoyang may be saved."

"This method is feasible, but I'm worried that no matter how powerful General Beigong's heavy armor team is, it won't be able to turn the tide of the battle, after all, the Zhao army has 500,000 people."

Zu Ti said again: "Daoist Wei is right, so I have a third way." ”

"What is it?"

"Help yourself."

"Self-help? How can I help myself? ”

Zu Ti said: "That's the case, the Zhao army is strong, and the Jin army is difficult to match, and the only way is to use the artifact of defending the city." ”

"Fortify the city?" The crowd was puzzled.

"Yes, the artifact of defending the city, one of which is the stone machine, you have also seen it, Zhao Jun's stone throwing machine is very powerful, destroying a lot of houses and city towers, this is a siege stone throwing machine, with a strong shock, I saw a stone throwing machine in General Ma Long's "Wind Grip Sutra", which is the appearance after his improvement, called "Lianzhu Cannon Car." ”

"Gun carriage? Haven't you heard of it, is it different from this kind of stone thrower? ”

"Of course, this kind of "Lianzhu artillery car" is small in size, and the natural stone bullet is also small, only more than 20 catties, his advantage is that it is easy to operate, two people can complete the launch, and the stone bullet can be fired in bursts, easy to transport, strong mobility, do not have to be placed in the city, as long as it is placed in the city, it can hit the target within 20 miles! Imagine, think that if we make a large number of this kind of "Lianzhu artillery carts" and place them in the city, and fire at the Zhao army camp, they will have nothing to hide, keep them crying wolves, countless dead and wounded, go back to the state, and then the Jin army will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and the Zhao army will be annihilated! ”
