Chapter 440: Surprise Attack on Jian'an City (Part II)
()
When the deafening cannon sound rang out, the Goguryeo people who were defending the city were suddenly stunned.
"What's that? Thunder? ”
"No, it's those Datang people!"
"Oh my God, what do these Tang people want to do?"
Just as they were in shock, a cannonball struck the battlement above the wall, making a loud explosion.
"Bang!"
With this loud bang, the stone cannonballs suddenly shattered the battlements of the city wall, and the nearest Goguryeo soldiers bore the brunt of the blow, and they were immediately knocked down by the flying rubble, and fell to the ground wailing.
"My head...... My head is bleeding! ”
"Ah...... My eyes...... My eyes ......"
"Shang Xian, Shang Xian, you don't want to die!"
For a while, the city wall was suddenly in chaos, and when he saw this scene, Gao Ming's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Someone, pass my order, tell Huzi, let him divide half of the cannon for me to bombard the battlements on the city wall, try to create chaos, and the rest of the people continue to bombard the city gate!"
"Yes!"
The herald said yes and went to give the order, and after receiving the wise order, Huzi immediately respected his command and began to bombard the city gate and the battlements of the city wall respectively.
Gao Ming stood on top of the tank, looking at the chaotic scene of shaking above Jian'an City, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became bigger and bigger.
"Is this the legendary intentional planting of flowers that do not bloom, and unintentional planting of willows and willows? I didn't expect Quan Gaisu to be so big, he actually sent a group of recruits to defend the city, he thought that no one dared to come to Jian'an City, if he met someone else, it would be fine, but unfortunately he met me! ”
Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately raised it high.
"Where is Xue Rengui?"
Hearing Gao Ming's words, Xue Rengui hurriedly knelt on one knee, and then hugged his fist.
"The end will be here!"
"I order you to integrate five thousand cavalry to stand by, and once the city gate is opened, immediately rush into Jian'an City and block the west city gate!"
"Yes!"
Xue Rengui, who received the order, saluted Gao Ming again, and then turned around and went down to integrate the soldiers and horses.
After Xue Rengui went down, Gao Ming continued to shout: "Where is Zhang Liang?" ”
"The last general!"
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Zhang Liang immediately walked out and saluted him with a fist, seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately nodded.
"Zhang Liang, I order you to integrate five thousand cavalry to stand by, and then follow Xue Rengui to rush into Jian'an City and block the eastern city gate!"
"Order!"
Zhang Liang agreed, and went down to integrate the soldiers and horses.
And at this time, there was a sudden commotion in front of him, Gao Ming looked in the direction from which the sound came, and immediately saw a cloud of dust raised in the direction of the city gate.
Seeing this scene, Gao Ming's eyes immediately widened.
"The gates of Jian'an City have fallen?"
After discovering this, Gao Ming immediately raised his arms and shouted.
"The city gate is broken, kill!"
As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Xue Rengui immediately waved his spear and shouted loudly.
"Datang Wansheng! Kill! ”
As he roared, he urged his horse to rush forward, and the five thousand cavalry behind him also roared and began to charge.
In less than a few breaths, he crossed the distance of a hundred steps and rushed into Jian'an City, seeing this scene, Zhang Liang also shouted.
"Datang's sons, kill with me, Datang will win!"
After roaring, he rushed out first, and the cavalry behind him also shouted "Tang Wansheng" and charged with him.
Seeing this scene, Gao Ming immediately laughed too.
"Now it's my turn!"
Speaking of this, Gao Ming shouted loudly again.
"All the soldiers of Datang, Jian'an City has been broken, and the time for meritorious service has come, follow me and enter Jian'an City with me, Datang will win!"
After speaking, Gao Ming "swished" into the tank, and then closed the top cover.
After Gao Ming got into the tank, the tank began to move slowly, and the tracks made a "click" sound, and then slowly advanced towards Jian'an City.
When the clever tank reached the city gate, the soldiers defending the city wall also came to their senses, and suddenly bows and arrows rained down.
Obviously, these Goguryeo soldiers regarded the tank as the main target, and when Gao Ming sat inside the tank, he could hear the "clanging" sound of the rain of arrows hitting the tank.
Faced with such a situation, Gao Ming grinned.
"Persimmon has to pick up soft pinch, the Goguryeo people are really looking for the wrong person this time!"
The Goguryeo people also soon realized that their bows and arrows had no effect on Gaoming's tanks, but by the time they realized it was too late, because Gaoming had already stormed the city gates with his tanks.
And those who rushed in with Gao Ming were also 5,000 wolf-like Datang Mo sword soldiers.
"Kill!"
The Mo knife soldiers are all carefully selected by the Tang Army, they are wearing heavy iron armor, holding a huge eight-foot-long Mo knife, which can shake the cavalry, and belong to the most powerful melee troops in the Tang Army!
The fact that the Mo sword soldiers can fight with the cavalry shows how fierce their combat power is, and when they face the crossbowmen wearing light armor, the battle situation can only be described in one word, that is-slaughter!
After going to the city wall, these Mo sword soldiers slaughtered the Goguryeo soldiers on the battlements like chopping melons and vegetables, and the wailing and screaming were endless.
Many Goguryeo soldiers even dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground, shouting something in their mouths, it should be surrender or something like that, but these Tang troops didn't pay attention to it at all, and they still kept getting up and down.
Unable to fight and defeat, surrender was not accepted, some Goguryeo soldiers suddenly collapsed, they screamed and jumped directly from the eight-meter castle tower, and then fell to the ground with a "pop".
However, these Goguryeo soldiers who jumped down, their fate was no different.
The Goguryeo soldiers who fell to death would have their ears cut off directly by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and those who fell half to death would be stabbed by the Tang soldiers who rushed up after wailing for a while, and then their ears would be cut off, thus becoming part of the opponent's military exploits.
The Goguryeo soldiers near the south gate were quickly cleared, and the soldiers began to rush to the east and west gates to fight, while Gao Ming drove the huge Beetle steam tank straight towards the north gate.
When he reached the north gate, he laughed when he looked at the gate that had been opened.
"Sure enough, as I thought, these sticks have no backbone, let alone any 'people are in the city', and they can run faster than rabbits when something happens."
Speaking of this, Gao Ming suddenly waved his way.
"Pass the order, close the north gate, block the streets, clear all resistance, and those who dare to resist will be killed!"
"Yes!"
