Seeing that Huang Taiji was still a little hesitant, Hong Chengchou hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, the Zheng family's cannon-casting technique is unparalleled in the world, and it is extremely capable and far. The range of the idle infantry cannon is far greater than that of our army, and now such a large cannon has been built...... Your Majesty's golden body, please take the country's society as the priority, and avoid it for the time being! ”

Huang Taiji looked hatefully at the huge cannon opposite—the artillery on the opposite side had already begun to reload it with gunpowder. In addition, a man-made bomb picker was also pushed in front of the muzzle, the 400-pound shell was too heavy to be moved by manpower, and the muzzle of the siege gun was so high that in order to load such a shell into the muzzle, it was necessary to use a pulley block device.

Huang Taiji looked at it, and estimated that there was still a while before the cannon fired, so he put down the binoculars and said, "I know what Mr. said, but it will take some time to open the cannon this time, not so fast." You all say that Zheng's cannon is unparalleled in the world, and I am about to hurry up and take a look at it now. When they're about to open fire, I'll avoid it. ”

After saying this, he raised the telescope again and looked at the opposite side, as if he had forgotten that Hong Chengchou was still kneeling on the ground. Azig and the others next to him naturally did not remind Huang Taiji to call Hong Chengchou to get up, so Hong Chengchou had to kneel there.

Huang Taiji looked at it for a while, and saw that the model army on the opposite side shook the crankshaft, used the pulley group, and lifted a huge pig iron cannonball to the muzzle, and then the two soldiers stood on the high platform next to it and pushed it into the barrel with the top projectile stick.

"They're going to fire." Huang Taiji put down the binoculars in his hand and said in as calm a tone as possible, "Let's go down and avoid it first." Speaking of this, he swept his eyes and saw that Hong Chengchou was still kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly said, "Why is Mr. still kneeling here?" Why don't you get up? Then he looked around at the others and said, "You don't want to warn me...... Sir, hurry up. ”

While speaking, Huang Taiji also made a look of support. Hong Chengchou hurriedly got up and said gratefully: "Thank you to the emperor, and please ask the emperor to move quickly......."

The group hurried down the city wall, and as soon as they got behind the city wall, they heard the sound of thunderous cannons from the opposite side. This was followed by a whistling sound, like someone blowing a bull's horn, and then with a loud bang, the entire section of the city wall shook violently, and even behind the city wall, you could clearly see the smoke and dust rising from the city wall when it shook. Then there was another cannon shot, then the same whistling, and then from their left came the sound of houses collapsing.

"Send someone to see where this shot is." Huang Taiji said slowly, and he noticed that the faces of Azigo and Hauge had changed.

A Baijia Zhangjing received the order, and Huang Taiji didn't wait here, but only said to one of the attendants beside him: "When they come back, let him report to the council hall." So he led the group to the council chamber.

As soon as he arrived in the conference hall, Huang Taiji suddenly heard another commotion outside, and someone faintly seemed to be shouting: "Flying......"

"What's going on?" Huang Taiji was a little annoyed, making noise for no reason is almost the most taboo thing in the army.

A guard hurriedly went out, and after a while, he walked in with a puzzled face, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Zheng Jiajun on the opposite side released a strange thing that can fly...... Your Majesty, you can see it as soon as you go out. ”

……

"Shizi, can this thing really fly?" Gu Jiang looked at the hot air balloon that had risen high, and said to Zheng Sen in surprise.

"What's so strange about that?" Zheng Sen said with a smile, "Haven't Brother Ning Ren seen the test of recording the rise of superheat in the "Gewu Notes"? ”

"Yes, I have seen it." Gu Jiang smiled, seemingly a little embarrassed, "I also know that this thing is fundamentally the same thing as Kong Ming Lantern." It's just ...... to see such a big one all of a sudden, and to be able to fly with people."

Speaking of this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "It is always said that it exists between heaven and earth, no matter how big or small, there is no difference. Now that I really encountered something, I still have to be surprised. It turns out that there is such a usage in the way of things. With this thing, coupled with a clairvoyant mirror, we can see every move of the Tartars in the city clearly, how can they fight this battle? ”

"What? Brother Ning Ren sympathized with the Tartar? Zheng Sen smiled deliberately.

"Where, the more miserably the Tartar dies, the better. In your words, only a dead Tartar is a good Tartar. My generation of saint disciples, naturally we should work hard to teach the Tartars to be good people......" Gu Jiang said seriously, but when it came to the back, he couldn't hold it anymore and laughed first. However, he immediately straightened his face and said: "Jian Yan was originally a lost dog, and he was blessed by me and allowed to be raised by him, but he didn't think about reciprocating, but instead had wolf ambitions and invaded my Chinese people!" This land of Liaodong was originally my Chinese land, and there were my Chinese people everywhere, but now they have been slaughtered by these jackals. If you don't give them a retribution, won't it make people think that there is no clear blue sky in this world! ”

"Well said!" Zheng Sen said loudly, "Now we are going to punish them on behalf of heaven and give them a retribution." ”

At this time, a small bag was thrown from the hot air balloon, and a herald picked it up and handed it to Zheng Sen. Zheng Sen opened the small bag, and inside was a sketch of the Qing army's fortress drawn with charcoal, and the location of the two shells just now was marked.

"A cannon hit the city wall, and a pit of about four feet was made in the wall, the depth of which is unknown...... Another shot crossed the walls and hit a house, the entire house collapsed, causing unknown casualties...... Overall, not bad. Zheng Sen looked at the paper in his hand and nodded.

"Most of the buildings in the city are made of wood...... Shizi, it seems that our plan to use arson bombs should work. Gu Jiang said.

"Don't be busy, finish all the test shots first, get the shooting watch right, and then talk about it, anyway, the castle won't run. But don't expect too much arson, after all, the Tartar has been burned by us more than once, and it won't be completely unprepared. Zheng Sen said with a smile.

……

"Your Majesty, that's nothing unusual, it's just a large Kong Ming lantern. You can explain it to the armies, so that they must not be disturbed. Hong Chengchou said.

Huang Taiji nodded, and said to the people around him: "What Mr. Hong said, did you all hear it?" There's nothing strange about it, and it's not a fairy or a ghost. If there are those who dare to make noise and talk nonsense, they will not be spared! The people around him responded with a bang, and then they all went.

Huang Taiji frowned again and said, "Mr. Hong, let's go in and talk about it." ”

Huang Taiji and several important generals, as well as Hong Chengchou, entered the house and sat down, Huang Taiji said: "I just got the report, the enemy's two cannons, one hit the city wall, shattered the bricks outside the city wall, and made a big pit more than four feet wide and almost six feet deep on it. Another shot entered the city, hitting a stable, and the whole stable fell, killing six grooms, more than twenty horses, and wounding more than thirty horses. Now the enemy army is there, and the cannon keeps fighting, and we can't wait here to be beaten, but there is no way, I don't know what you think? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another faint cannon sound from there, and then there was another whistling sound in the air, which came closer and closer, and finally turned into a loud bang, and the whole council hall shook. ()
