Chapter 97 Closing the Net One

sank Zhang Xianzhong's ship, Zhu Shunming did not stop, but sailed down the river. There are tens of thousands of Liukou army in Dongcheng!

………………

Sun Kewang was ruthless, he didn't take the life of the Liukou seriously at all, and urged and coerced the Liukou to attack the city one after another. The corpses of the rogues were piled up a foot high, and the blood that flowed stained the entire moat reddish-brown.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

Hundreds of cannons roared at the same time, and the huge cannon sound came and went, and Sun Kewang could feel the shaking of the rivers and the earth and smell the pungent smell of gunpowder smoke from several miles away.

The official army gathered so many cannons in Xicheng? Sun Kewang was a little incredible. Could it be that Wuchang is a trap? Sun Kewang is undecided, whether to continue the siege or withdraw immediately?

Sun Kewang spared no expense to attack the city, and the advantage of a large number of people was gradually reflected.

Wang Fuchen no longer had the previous relaxed freehand, and his face became solemn. The siege of the city at such a risk of his life caused great pressure on the small number of Wang Fuchen's troops.

The cannon at the head of the city was almost destroyed, and the lever was destroyed only after a few uses, and the damage caused to the rogues by heavy weapons such as sassalwood was not as fast as the rogue could replenish.

The Liukou continued to replenish, and climbed the city wall desperately, and several times there were lucky and fierce Liukou who climbed the city, causing a great threat to Wang Fuchen's defense of the city.

From time to time, Wang Fuchen looked out of the city from a distance. Boss Zhu and Zhang Pan's army are both outside the city, why haven't they shown up yet? If you don't come again, Lao Wang's soldiers and horses will be exhausted.

Hearing the dense sound of artillery, Wang Fuchen breathed a sigh of relief. Boss Zhu is finally here!

"Hold on for an hour, the boss is coming,......" Wang Fuchen cheered up: "Hold the East City, the boss treats you, and you can pick ...... beautiful fans."

………………

The cannon sound in Xicheng stopped for less than a cup of tea, and Zhu Shunming's sailor appeared on the Yangtze River in the east.

The sailors and soldiers who were easy to fight did not need Shi Xuanwei's command, they were all in place, aiming at their respective targets and firing their cannons.

The rapid and dense shells quickly destroyed the ships on the Yangtze River that Sun Kewang had left, so fast that the Liukou did not have time to think.

The deafening sound of artillery muffled the shouts of killing under the city, and the battlefield filled with gunpowder became the master of the battlefield, causing a great shock to the hearts of the warring parties.

Under such intense artillery fire, how could flesh and blood be an adversary? What is the use of individual force if there is so much artillery involved in every battle?

After sinking and capturing the rogue ships, Shi Xuanwei was still not satisfied. The warships approached the shore, and the sides of the ships were aimed at the shore, lined up.

"Boom ......"

The calibrated shells accurately fell into the rogues, plowing a bloody gully in the dense rogues, and the rogue suffered no less than ten casualties.

"Our Lao Shi's skills are not bad!" Shi Xuan said proudly.

"Yes, very good." Zhu Shunming praised: "This technique is enough for teachers. Gai Ming'er set up an artillery school, and you can go and become the deputy chief instructor. ”

"Don't, don't ......" Shi Xuanwei hurriedly shook his head and refused: "How can our old Shi be a teacher?" Don't mislead people. How can teaching others to shoot guns is refreshing to shoot guns themselves? ”

Immediately, Shi Xuanwei said curiously: "Our old Shi's level is only a deputy chief instructor, so who is the chief instructor?" ”

"Where did the cannons on your ship come from? Sun Yuanhua made it. Zhu Shunming said: "In terms of the understanding and manufacture of artillery, ten of you are not as good as one Sun Yuanhua." I have time to ask Governor Sun for advice. ”

"Hey...... It turned out to be Boss Sun. Shi Xuanwei grinned and said: "If Boss Sun is the chief instructor, of course our old Shi will be convinced." However, his instructors were okay to shoot on the shore, on rocking boats...... Hey hey ......"

Listening to the tone, Shi Xuanwei was very confident in his artillery skills, and he looked down on the artillery instructor trained by Sun Yuanhua.

Shi Xuanwei was talking nonsense with Zhu Shunming, while training to shoot Zhu Yuan, and then ignited the gun.

This time, the newly developed flowering bomb was launched. Shi Xuanwei is aiming at Sun Kewang's handsome banner.

"Boom ......"

The thick muzzle of the cannon was blazing, and in the smoke of gunpowder, the slender flowering projectile crossed a beautiful arc, and then turned downward, emitting a strange whistling sound, and flew quickly towards Sun Kewang's handsome banner.

………………

The sailors of the officers and soldiers suddenly appeared, and without saying a word, they were bombarded intensively and violently, destroying all the ships on their rivers in less than half an hour.

Sun Kewang's heart was like a shipwreck on the river, sinking continuously, sinking to the bottom.

The officials and soldiers destroyed their own food supplies, and how to solve the problem of food and clothing for tens of thousands of their troops?

At this time, Sun Kewang had not yet realized that a large net was gradually tightening, and it was not as simple as just destroying the supply of the Liukou's ships.

The strange whistling sound of cannonballs reached Sun Kewang's ears. He looked up and saw a cannonball coming at a rapid pace, clearly targeting himself.

Sun Kewang didn't have time to think about it, so he pulled the soldiers around him to cover him.

"Boom ......"

The cannonballs burst open, the air waves rolled, the steel balls burst out, and they were swept away within a radius of three feet.

Sun Kewang pushed away the bleeding soldiers, struggled to get up from the ground, and spat out a mouthful of blood, frightened.

The flagpole of the handsome flag with the word "Sun" is broken, and the flag is fragmented and cannot see the shape.

Most of the soldiers around Sun Kewang were bleeding, and few could stand up.

Ai Nengqi was originally on Sun Kewang's left side. When the cannonball hit, Enench instinctively pulled his own soldiers to the side to cover it. Unexpectedly, the soldiers were pulled away by Sun Kewang, and Ainengqi was immediately exposed to the effective range of the cannonball.

The cannonball exploded, and a huge shock wave sent Enench nearly a foot away, and the flying steel balls shot Enenki's thigh. Ai Nengqi lay on the ground, blood flowing, life and death unknown.

………………

Shi Xuanwei didn't expect that he would knock down the handsome banner of the rogue with one shot. He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect our Lao Shi's artillery plan to make great progress." Try it on my mouth another day, and maybe you can give me a big fat boy. ”

The Liukou were originally discouraged by the artillery bombardment of the official army, and the siege of the city had long been stopped. Now that Shuai Qi has been knocked down, Sun Kewang and others don't know whether they are alive or dead, and the rogue has messed up the rules.

Someone wants to continue the siege. As long as you work harder, the city will be destroyed. Anyway, the officers and soldiers are powerful sailors, and those who can shoot artillery are also battleships. Could it be that the battleship could still climb to land?

Someone wants to retreat.

The rogue ships were destroyed, the retreat route was cut off, and the food supply sank to the bottom of the river. If you can take Wuchang, everything will be fine. If you can't take Wuchang in a day or two, what will tens of thousands of people eat? When the time comes, there is no need for the official army to fight, and the rogues themselves will scatter and flee.

More people are waiting for the orders of Sun Kewang, Bai Wenxuan, Ai Nengqi and others.

………………

The officers and sailors were in full swing, and hundreds of artillery pieces were fired at the same time.

The hot iron ball roared and pounced on the dense rogue group, constantly plowing out flesh and blood trenches in the group of rogues, dividing the rogue camp into small pieces like a chessboard.

The guns on the battleship were different from the Franc cannons at the head of Wuchang City. This kind of naval gun is heavy, thick, and the barrel is lengthened, and the range and power of the shells are not the same.

Thousands of shells carrying huge kinetic energy swept through the rogue camp, and the already panicked rogue camp was suddenly full of mourning, with countless casualties. More rogues, who had lost arms and legs in the shelling, rolled on the ground and wailed, miserable.

Bai Wenxuan didn't know when he appeared beside Sun Kewang, his face covered in blood.

"My lord, let's withdraw," Bai Wenxuan roared: "The brothers are all disabled, and we won't be able to take Wuchang for a while, and our logistics supply won't be enough." ”

Sun Kewang's ears were still buzzing, and his whole body was tumbling with qi and blood, and he almost wanted to vomit. He looked around, and the rogues were all scurrying around like headless flies. The artillery shells of the officers and soldiers came in densely, and each shell took the lives of a group of rogues. Not to mention the siege, it is impossible to gather troops under such intense artillery bombardment.

"Withdraw, withdraw to the northeast ......"
