Chapter Ninety-One: Artillery Siege

I had a smile on my lips. I'm so used to the thrill of killing that my hair stands on end. I became a complete butcher.

I don't want it now, a big tiger skin chair, carried by a dozen soldiers. I sat in a tiger skin chair like a bandit leader.

I'm afraid of death, and I'm as timid as a mouse. So I'm more than twice the range of Soochow archers. Because I can't be sure that a strong fellow will not shoot me like a hedgehog with a cold arrow beyond the theoretical range of the archers.

I waved my hand, and the flag bearer next to me waved the command flag.

This is the signal for the firing of artillery, and our artillery has been positioned as standard.

The gunners held their torches and lit the fuses together, and the gunners covered their ears.

"Bang bang bang! ……”

For the first time, I was struck by a hot weapon, an iron projectile ejecting from the artillery. I could even see the trajectory of the shells.

The opposite city wall was instantly blown up in dust and smoke, and the soldiers of Eastern Wu were killed and injured countless times.

With a cold face, she said beside me, "We are destined to go to hell."

She's right, this kind of battle can't be fought. It's like we're bullying an eight-year-old. The worst thing is that the children are empty-handed, and we are holding knives.

This is not a war, and it is not a war. We are slaughtering.

A round of artillery fire passed, and Gan Ning's troops were killed by us.

I waved the gunner to stop the attack, and our herald pulled out his homemade loudspeaker again.

"Listen to the soldiers of Soochow on the other side, as long as you surrender, we will definitely give you preferential treatment. Three meals a day, dry. What you eat is not called rice, but pig food. We have vegetables, we have meat. If you don't want to be a soldier, we'll give you the money to pay for your journey. Let you go home and reunite with your wives and children. ”

It's a temptation, a great temptation. The Soochow soldiers on the opposite side began to waver, and they wanted to run.

I saw General Gan Ning standing on the city wall, this guy holding a big knife, cutting down several retreating soldiers. Immediately stabilized the morale of the army.

With a wave of my hand, I took the horn from the herald's hand, and I shouted: "General Gan, don't make senseless sacrifices, surrender!"

Gan Ning pulled out his sword: "I don't have any surrendered warriors in Dongwu, I don't care what kind of magic you use." If you want me to surrender, that's a fantasy! ”

I called the flag soldier next to me, and I whispered in his ear, "Do you see the general on the opposite wall?"

The flag soldier nodded.

I said: "Order the artillery, concentrate the artillery fire." Bomb him down for me. ”

The flag soldier nodded, and he turned to order the artillerymen beside him. The artillerymen behind me began to swing their earthen cannons, aiming at Ganning on the city walls.

"General Gan, you are loyal to your lord. I admire it, but have you thought about these subordinates of yours, have you watched them follow you to death? I also promise that as long as your lord surrenders, I will treat you the same way I treat Liu Bei. ”

I never thought that this Gan Ning was extremely stubborn, he pointed at us angrily: "I hate myself for not breaking your corpses into thousands of pieces earlier, wow!"

I know it's a tough one, and they're tough on it. Ganning is the backbone of our nation. But I've done iniquity, and since we've been here, it's all out of control.

I waved my hand and the artilleryman lit the fuse. I watched as the fuse burned, and Ganning stood on the wall with hatred in his eyes.

"Bang !!" A cannonball spun and flew directly towards General Gan Ning on the city wall.

"Boom!" With a bang, the place where Gan Ning was standing became a pile of ruins.

The soldiers of Eastern Wu on the city wall were stunned, and I saw Zhao Yun's body tremble. It was clear that he also felt too cruel.

Our soldiers rushed forward with a scream, and the commander of Soochow was dead, and the soldiers were crushed at the slightest touch. We didn't even meet much resistance.

I got up and stepped out of my tiger skin chair. I rushed up with the soldiers.

When I passed by Zhao Yun's side, Zhao Yun whispered, "This is not a war."

I know what he means, it's true that we're not at war, we're slaughtering. And I, through and through, became an executioner.

The gates of the city have long been blasted open by us. The power of the cannon was enormous, and the wooden gate was blasted open by our concentrated cannon.

Our soldiers rushed in, and Guiyang is now ours. The soldiers of Soochow hung their heads, and with weapons in their hands, surrendered to us.

Zhao Yun and the others entered the city to receive the surrendered troops, and I did not follow. I climbed the walls and saw charred corpses everywhere.

I walked aimlessly, trampling corpses under my feet. Are we really here to do the right thing?

The era of hot weapons is much more terrifying, and Guiyang is now ours.

"Report! Report Marshal. Reinforcements from Soochow arrived at the East Gate. They are besieging the city. ”

I was taken aback by the herald's words, and Sun Quan actually sent reinforcements.

"Let's go! Come with me to the East Gate. I commanded. When I climbed the city wall, I found that Soochow had sent 5,000 reinforcements.

But they came too late, and we have already occupied Guiyang. If these 5,000 elite soldiers come, they will only be cannon fodder.

I was just about to go down to the city when Slim ran up.

"Brother Xiao Ming, reinforcements are coming from the east gate."

I said, "Let's go, let's take a look."

Slender bit her lip: "I see it, reinforcements." Reinforcements from Soochow. ”

"Who's going?" I asked.

"What?" Xian Xian was stunned for a moment.

I had to explain, "Who went to the East Gate?"

"Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun is over there."

I don't know why, after the slender became beautiful. I was very restrained when I saw her, just as she was very restrained when she used to see me.

I know, that's my low self-esteem. I don't think I'm worthy of her.

"Brother Xiao Ming, we can't do this."

I knew what she meant, and she didn't want us to be slaughtered like that. Zhao Yun said so, and Xian Xian said the same.

Zhao Yun has been on the battlefield for a long time. Never flinch from fighting the enemy. When he killed the enemy, he was brave and uncast, but even he couldn't stand it.

When we arrived at the East Gate, we saw that reinforcements from Soochow had arrived.

Time was a bit rushed. We have just taken over Guiyang, and we have not had time to deploy defenses. And our artillery has not yet entered the city.

"Not good." I was shocked: "Protect the artillery!"

Sure enough, these reinforcements from Eastern Wu did not attack the city. Instead, they went around the city and rushed towards our artillery.

We were shocked, the artillery was our heavy weapon. If it is dispersed by reinforcements from Soochow, our artillery will be finished.

Our infantry had already entered the city, and we didn't expect reinforcements to arrive in Soochow. The artillery was bulky because of the heavy transport, so I left the artillery outside the city.

"Rescue the artillery!" I shouted.

Our soldiers rushed out shouting and shouting, and we took the muskets and did not hand the grenades. Screaming and rushing out of the city.
