Wu Shuang confirmed again: "Are all the tunnels sealed?" ”

"Don't worry, Xiucai! My old Xiao is good at this, and I guarantee that there is no air leakage at all. Xiao Youjin patted his chest and reassured.

Hearing Xiao Youjin's affirmative answer, Wu Shuang nodded and said, "That's fine!" After speaking, he looked at Hu Tieniu.

Lao Hu suddenly came to his senses and said happily: "Xiucai! If your method works, we can even beat Jinan Chengdu! Ha ha! Little ones! It's all ready, and once the city wall is broken, rush in! ”

After Hu Tieniu finished speaking, his face turned cold and said: "It's all for Lao Tzu to remember!" We are a righteous army, and those who surrender should not be killed. If anyone breaks the rules, Lao Hu will personally send him on the road! After speaking, he waved the plate axe in his hand and made his soldiers ready!

Wu Shuangcheng Xiao Youjin nodded, and Xiao Youjin personally went to light the fire rope in the bamboo tube. The fire rope burned rapidly in the bamboo tube, and soon disappeared into the dark hole in the ground.

The men and horses outside the city focused their attention on that section of the wall, and they all waited for the moment when the wall fell.

Wu Changlin's hands were covered with sweat, and he kept wiping them on his clothes. The eyes are even more fixed on the city wall, this is a good opportunity for meritorious service. As long as he can make military achievements, he will definitely be able to leave a piece of family business to future generations.

Wu Dong glanced back at his nephew, and he also felt the oppression of the big war. I never thought that I could be a captain in middle age, although this captain was not recognized by the government, but he could already guarantee that he had fifty acres of Yongye land.

Such a good life used to often appear in dreams, and I would fight for my family so that my children and grandchildren would no longer suffer the same suffering.

There are many people who think like them, and they are all waiting for the moment when the walls will fall. Waiting can make people irritable, and Hu Tieniu feels that the time for a few breaths is so long.

He said to Wu Shuang: "Xiucai! You go and urge, let the gunpowder under the city explode quickly! ”

Hearing Hu Tieniu's nonsense, Wu Shuang shook his head weakly. He has deliberately reduced his talk to Hu Tieniu, and Wu Shuang, who can't chat, has seen a lot.

But it's really rare to see people who can't chat and insist on chatting.

While the people were anxiously waiting, 500 catties of gunpowder buried under the city were detonated.

People inside and outside Tangwang Town felt the ground shaking under their feet, and the soil under the city wall was uplifted, and several cracks suddenly appeared on the originally strong city wall.

But that was the end of the effect, and the walls remained standing firmly. Looking at the city wall still standing in place, the rebels led by Hu Tieniu sighed.

Falling short! It really fell short, obviously with too little gunpowder, and it didn't blow up the city wall at all.

The guards responsible for guarding Wangzhuang secretly said that it was dangerous, and it turned out that the thieves outside the city planned to use gunpowder to blow up the city wall.

Once the thieves succeeded, Tang Wangzhen would have no possibility of holding it at all. The young men who were temporarily recruited were not vulnerable at all, and their three hundred people would be overwhelmed by thieves in the blink of an eye.

No one noticed that there seemed to be less water in the trenches dug in the city. Although the gunpowder buried in the explosion was a little less, more importantly, the gunpowder was not sealed at all, and it was packed into clay pots and sent to the city.

In later generations, the Chinese army used coffins to blow up the city walls, put thousands of catties of gunpowder into the coffins, and then sealed them and sent them to the city.

The built blasting room is also exquisite, and the gunpowder cannot be tightly attached to the city wall. It was also necessary to leave a semi-circular blasting chamber above the gunpowder, and a turning point in the powder pit to allow the turning point to withstand the impact of the blast.

Wu Shuang, after talking with Zhang Dou, understood why he failed to blast the city wall in Tangwang Town, but he could think that using a tunnel to blast the city wall was already ahead of others.

Although Wu Shuang's blasting did not blow up the city wall, it blew a big hole under the city wall. The cracks created by the explosion communicated the ditches dug in the city, and the water flowed through the cracks into the large holes blown out by the gunpowder.

At first the flow was small and people did not notice. As the water washes away, the passage of the flowing water gradually increases.

When the water filled the large hole under the wall, the foundation of the city wall was crumbling with the water that had already washed away.

When Hu Tieniu saw that the city wall did not collapse, he immediately ordered a strong attack. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that the people in Tang Wang Town did not react and attack once, and it was not his style to retreat like this.

The soldiers of Niutouling, who had received the order, rushed to the cracked section of the city wall against the ladder, and the guards on the city wall also beckoned Qingzhuang to enter the city.

Wu Dong's uncle and nephew also followed the crowd and rushed to the bottom of Tangwang Town against the ladder, without waiting for the ladder to be set up on the city wall.

The bricks that rained down and the big roots of rolling wood fell down. The men at the front were immediately knocked down, but more soldiers slammed the ladder against the wall.

Wu Dong led his soldiers to rush to the city, and he used a shield to protect his head. The bricks and stones thrown from the city made Wu Dong retreat again and again, and he saw that he was still two feet away from the city wall.

At this time, he couldn't care much, and he shouted: "Erect a ladder!" ”

Suddenly, three soldiers with shields stood in a row with Wu Dong, and the end of the ladder stood at their feet.

The soldiers in the rear worked together to erect the ladder high. Wu Changlin glanced at the length of the ladder, and then at the distance from the city wall, and shouted loudly: "Second uncle! It's too far! The ladder can't reach the top of the city wall! ”

"Let's lean over first! And then I want to set up the Fa a little more! Wu Dong ordered loudly.

Wu Dong and a dozen people stabilized the bottom of the ladder and let the ladder fall towards the city wall. Due to their distance from the city walls, the ladder fell too quickly.

Wu Dong gritted his teeth so that the ladder did not slip, and Wu Dong, who was exerting force under his feet, felt that the ground had sunk down a little. There seemed to be water coming out of the originally hard ground, and he didn't think much about it, but he still smashed the ladder towards the city wall.

The ladder arced through the air and smashed into the walls with the sound of the wind. At the moment of contact with the city wall, it emits a "Boom! With a loud bang, Wu Changlin, who was ready to rush up the ladder at any time, felt that the city wall seemed to shake.

But he quickly threw out the chaotic thoughts in his head and didn't wait for the second uncle to speak. He picked up a shield from the ground to cover his head and climbed up the ladder.

Wu Dong was in a hurry below, and their ladder was still three feet away from the top. It is very difficult to jump at such a height, and my nephew is too anxious.

What should I do if I go up recklessly and give my life? Wu Dong, who was anxious, could only wave his hand and let the others follow.

He couldn't watch his nephew take risks alone, one more person would give him more strength.
