The first round of arrows covered it, except for a series of tuk sounds nailed to the wooden windows, etc., there was nothing unusual, and not a single human scream was heard.

"These grandsons must be hiding in the house, so it won't work to cover them from the outside." Jiang Chuan thought for a moment and then resolutely ordered: "Stop firing arrows, the assault team will rush in, and a hundred archers will then provide long-range support." ”

The assault team cautiously marched towards the county government where the gate had been opened, followed by a hundred cavalry archers who temporarily acted as foot archers.

There was no movement inside, and the commando team continued to move forward slowly, slowly bypassing the shadow wall of the county office, opposite the lobby of the county office, the door of the lobby was closed, and it was still quiet, and there was no movement.

Suddenly, a scream sounded, and one of the soldiers at the head of the assault team was pierced by an arrow in his right thigh without a shield, and fell to the ground with a muffled grunt of pain, causing a small commotion.

"Drag it out and find the enemy's location!" The light cavalry centurion at the head of the assault team gave a low order, and the people behind him quickly ran backwards with the soldiers who had been hit by the arrows.

With the short stagnation of this commando, suddenly the door of the county hall suddenly opened, and a fierce rain of arrows suddenly pounced on the commando.

"Shield!" The centurion roared violently, and quickly raised the small round shield in his hand to lower his body, and used the shield to protect his head, chest and abdomen.

The soldiers behind him quickly made the same move.

But the Tartar archery in this was obviously very accurate, and the person in command was also very smart, except for a few of those arrows were blocked by shields, most of the rest of the arrows were shot into the lower limbs of the commandos, causing many people to snort and fall, and the originally neat formation was chaotic.

The assault team was originally composed of light cavalry improvised, and they did not have the equipment for urban warfare, nor did they lack the corresponding skills and qualities for urban warfare, which showed their shortcomings at once.

Although the assault team was frustrated, the archers behind still seized this fleeting fighter and quickly poured a wave of arrows into the county hall.

A few muffled grunts came from inside the lobby, apparently someone inside had been shot by an arrow.

But before the archers could fire a second round of arrows, the door to the lobby was quickly shut, and the scene fell silent again.

"Get out!" Jiang Chuan's eyes were on fire, but he knew that he couldn't continue to attack like this, otherwise even if he took down that important person of the Manchu Dynasty, the casualties would be relatively heavy.

Although it is said that Ci is not in charge of the army, a qualified commander still has to cherish the lives of soldiers as much as possible on the premise of being able to achieve the goal. A general who can only fill with human life, if not a fool, is a mediocre talent.

The commandos and archers all withdrew, and although Jiang Chuan was very annoyed in his heart, he tried his best to calm down.

He walked up and down the long street with the lord's sword at his waist, pacing, eagerly thinking about ways to break the enemy.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps interrupted Jiang Chuan's thoughts, and he raised his eyes to see that a group of bald heads wearing Qing soldier uniforms ran quickly towards him.

"General, we're late." The person who came was Li Han, who had just surrendered, and his artillery team members.

Although each of the red-coated cannons was dragged by four horses, it was a big guy after all, so it fell behind the brigade.

By the time Li Han and the others dragged the cannon to the south gate of Liaoyang, Jiang Chuan had already arrived at the gate of the county government.

After he asked, he hurriedly ran over with a few people. has just regained his life, and he is afraid that Jiang Chuan will blame him for being slow.

Seeing Li Han, Jiang Chuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his thigh, how could he forget these big killers.

Damn, with the big killer of cannons, the city can be defeated, not to mention a small county office.

"Li Han, let me ask you, where is the cannon?" Jiang Chuan grabbed Li Han's shoulder and asked eagerly.

"General, here, at the south gate, there are guards." Li Han was taken aback by Jiang Chuan's expression, and replied a little nervously.

"Okay, you drag two cannons over to General Ben." Jiang Chuan patted Li Han on the shoulder and laughed loudly.

"Huh? General, what is this for? Li Han was a little confused for a while.

"What? The time has come for you to make a great contribution. Just go! Egawa laughed.

Li Han looked at the wounded soldiers all over the ground, didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly led people back to the south gate to drag the cannons.

It didn't take long for the rumbling sound to come, it was the sound of the wheels of the cannon running over the bluestone road, eight horses, and more than a dozen artillerymen hurriedly rushed to the county government with two cannons.

"General, the cannon is coming." Li Han swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said a little nervously.

"Okay, you now take someone to set up the cannon, load the gunpowder and cannonballs, and blast the shadow wall for Lao Tzu first." Jiang Chuan pointed to the shadow wall directly opposite the gate of the county government and explained to Li Han.

If you want to hit the lobby, you must first break down this shadow wall that blocks the view.

Li Han received the order, and his people hurriedly came to life.

A few minutes later, both cannons were aimed at the large shadow wall, the gunpowder shells were loaded, the angles were adjusted in place, and the torches were lit, waiting for the order to ignite and fire.

Looking at Li Han's eyes, Jiang Chuan nodded and said loudly: "Ignite the fire, launch, and bomb Lao Tzu." “

The torch ignited the fuse, which burst into flames, quickly igniting the gunpowder in the barrel.

With a deafening loud bang, the powerful recoil caused the muzzle of the cannon to jump sharply, and the wheels jerked back.

Two round, black, solid cannonballs flew out towards the shadow wall, and because the distance was too short, the trajectory was almost straight.

With such a short distance and such a large cannon, the two cannonballs slammed into the shadow wall engraved with patterns and the four big characters of "courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame" without accident, and the shadow wall instantly shattered and collapsed, revealing the county hall with the door closed behind it.

"Good, well done. Keep banging into the lobby! Jiang Chuan cheered and continued to order.

Li Han got the order, and led people to clean the gun chamber again, reload, adjust the angle of the gun, and soon it was ready again.

"Launch!" Jiang Chuan shouted, and the lord's great sword slammed forward towards the void.

"Boom", the two cannons rang out almost at the same time, and the two solid iron cannonballs slammed into the tightly closed thick gate of the county hall with the momentum of thunder.

"Click", the sound of wood breaking suddenly sounded, and the two cannonballs blasted the thick lobby door into pieces of debris almost without hindrance, and then flew inward with unabated momentum, and in an instant, there were bursts of miserable howls and grief inside, obviously someone was hit by the cannonballs.

Listening to the sound coming from inside, Jiang Chuan couldn't help but feel pain for those tartars, such a large solid iron cannonball, not like the shells of later generations used shell fragments to create damage, but stoned people to death, that death can be called a disgusting and tragic ah.

Seeing the cannon work and meritorious service, the gloomy aura that shrouded Jiang Chuan's heart just now suddenly dissipated, and his whole body was refreshed.

"Keep reloading and get ready to fire again." Li Han, who was also excited, ordered again.

"Okay, general, look at it, this time we will use the blossom bomb to ensure that the deflated calves inside can't eat and walk around." Li Han said excitedly.

"What's that? And flowering bombs? "Jiang Chuan was very surprised, thinking that the cannons of this era only had solid bullets, but he didn't expect that there were also flowering shells.

"General, this red-coated cannon solid shell is used to siege the city, and this flowering shell is used to hit people. The shells contained gunpowder, iron nails, broken porcelain shards, and other things, which exploded when they hit the ground and could pierce people into a hornet's nest. Some of them are also filled with chili pepper noodles, which makes people cry and can't open their eyes. Li Han excitedly explained to Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan was overjoyed, he didn't expect that there were flowering shells in the cannons of this era, and there were also special "chemical weapons", it seems that he really underestimated the ancients.

"Okay, this time use the flowering bomb to let the calves inside have a good taste of their own cannons." Egawa laughed.

Soon, the cannon was reloaded, and Li Han was already holding a torch and ready to light it at any time.

Jiang Chuan was about to give the order to launch again, when a voice suddenly came from inside the lobby:

"Don't fire, we, we're out!"
