Chapter 265: Indiscriminate Bombardment
Chapter 265: Bombardment and Indiscriminate Bombardment
"And if Bafa Valman is shown the power of our weakened artillery, it will serve another purpose, and that is to make him suspicious of the Maison, who will be boasting about the power of our artillery and other weapons in order to make him more vigilant when facing Bafa Valman.
But once Bafa Valman knew that the infinitely powerful artillery in the mouth of the Maison was only to this extent, he would naturally become suspicious of the Maison's other moves, and even no longer believe in the Maison, thus weakening the Maison's influence in the South Seas...... And isn't that what we want? Kill two birds with one stone......"
"Papapa......" After Li Zhen heard this, she couldn't help but applaud Xue Rengui's assertion, and praised while applauding: "Just such a slight move can make the family and Zhenla estranged." Xue Rengui is worthy of Xue Rengui, this fighter's ability to capture is indeed extraordinary. Even if you compare you with the famous generals in history, it's not much worse, amazing, really amazing. ”
Xue Rengui hurriedly waved his hand and said humbly: "Your Highness has praised falsely, my subordinates dare not be ashamed, compared with those famous generals in history, my subordinates still have a lot to learn, and Master is a famous general who can really be compared with famous generals in history, I am still far behind." ”
"Wei Guogong naturally has this qualification, but you don't have to be arrogant, you are only a little less experienced than Wei Guogong, as long as you go to the battlefield a few more times, your experience will naturally be rich. With plenty of experience, it's still very simple to make a name for yourself. Li Zhen affirmed.
The master that Xue Rengui said is naturally Li Jing, as one of the recognized eight orthodox heirs of the military family (Sun Wu Hanbai, Wei Huo Li Yue), Li Jing is naturally qualified to be comparable to his predecessors.
Originally, as a generation of famous generals, Xue Rengui also had this qualification, but it is a pity that there was a big defeat in his life, that is, the defeat of Dafeichuan (the specific situation will not be repeated, if you want to see it, you can search for 'Dafeichuan Battle' to understand the situation). This is a big stain after all, and compared with the eight famous generals who won all battles, it is a step worse after all, so it is not included in the eight famous generals, which is a big regret in history. Otherwise, with his feats of fixing the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows, taking off his hat and retreating from thousands of enemies, how could he sit in a mixed position.
Fortunately, now that he is here, Tubo has also been destroyed, and there will naturally be no battle of Dafeichuan in the future, and Xue Rengui should be able to fight for this qualification in this life.
Xue Rengui said with a smile: "Thank you for your encouragement, my subordinates also hope so, but no one can say for sure what will happen in the future, and my subordinates don't dare to have this extravagant hope, just want to be worthy of their hearts." ”
"Don't talk about that, the shelling is over, what's next?" While the two were talking, the sound of artillery had stopped, and Li Zhen asked casually.
"Naturally, the Spitfire (Greek fire) will follow." Xue Rengui said: "Similarly, the fuel of the Spitzer has also been passive, not only the quantity has been reduced by half, but more importantly, we have added a lot of impurities to the oil, and the combustion effect is much worse than the previous Spitfire." ”
With Xue Rengui's explanation, one after another strangely shaped vehicles were pushed out and slowly walked towards the city wall, which was the Spitting Cannon.
At this time, the smoke from the explosion on the top of the city gradually dispersed with the wind, and the scene at the head of the city fell into everyone's eyes.
Although the charge of the shell has been reduced by half, the cannon is a cannon, and even if it is only half of the charge, the power is still not to be underestimated.
The entire city wall facing the Tang army has been completely destroyed, and there are corpses and gaps everywhere, which can be described as full of holes. Although the main body of the wall remains intact and has not yet collapsed, it is already crumbling, and it seems that with a slight push, it will become a pile of broken walls and ruins in an instant.
In addition to some of the people who saw the opportunity early and were able to successfully escape from the city wall and survive, there were a large number of people who did not even react at all, and were blown up into a dizzy goose by the flying cannons, and it was too late to react, the city wall had been blocked by artillery fire, and everyone was suddenly panicked, and the chaos arose, pushing and trampling on those who trampled on them, those who drew knives and slashed indiscriminately, and those who jumped off the wall in a panic and were killed by falling to death.
But more people were scared into soft-footed shrimp, spread out on the city wall and did not move, and the better ones also knew to find a cover to hide, and some of them didn't even move, just collapsed in place and let them be bombed, and were soon blown into a blood mist by flying shells - even if they hid, it was not much better, and the bunker did provide them with a little defense, but the bunker used to defend against cold weapons, in the face of hot weapons, but how much protection could it provide......
When the bombardment was over, when the search and rescue personnel went up to search and rescue the survivors, they found that more than half of the hundreds of people on the entire city wall had been killed, and the remaining survivors were also blown into fools by the roaring artillery fire.
Seeing this scene, the deputy general, who temporarily served as the main general, sighed silently, he knew that these soldiers had been abolished, and even if they could be cured in the future, he was afraid that he would not be able to hear the slightest sound.
"General, the Tang army is coming up again." Just when the adjutant general sighed, the soldier in charge of the lookout suddenly said: "And this time it is pushed closer, and the weapons used are even more strange." ”
"Shall I see?" Baby-like took out a monocular from a sandalwood box, and the lieutenant followed the lookout's gaze, and at this glance, he suddenly wondered: "It's strange, is this also a cannon?" But it doesn't look like it's made of iron, is it? What the hell is this? What's the use? ”
The adjutant general was entangled, and someone next to him came up with an idea: "General, why don't you invite Mr. Luo to come and ask?" ”
"Yes, yes, I forgot about this, go and ask Mr. Luo." The deputy general suddenly realized that he didn't know the power of this thing, but someone on his side knew it, so he hurriedly sent someone to invite the scholar who had been neglected by him for a day.
After his subordinates left, the deputy general looked at the dilapidated city wall with palpitations, and then at the strange car that was gradually advancing, the more he thought about it, the more furious he became, and greeted: "I said, let's remove the city wall first, this thing can be brought here by the Tang army thousands of miles away, and the power is absolutely terrifying, but I am afraid that it is not under the cannon." ”
"Huh~" As soon as the deputy general said this, there was a sound of relief, and all the generals echoed his proposal.
"Yes, yes, my subordinates think so too."
"I think so, too, let's go."
"There are no more people left on the city wall, so let's all go down."
"When the tricks of the Tang Dynasty are exhausted, we will come back."
“……”
There was a chorus below, which shows that the power of the artillery really scared everyone, giving them a mentality of being bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope - whenever they see something strange, they will think it is the secret weapon of Datang.
