Receiving the news that Sun Ce was gathering troops to march west, Yang Xi ignored it, he knew that Sun Ce would not really fight.

Even if he really fights, he may not be able to take Huang Zhong, even if he defeats Huang Zhong and gets some cities, what is the use, as long as he takes Jiujiang himself, this is an excuse to take Sun Ce by chance.

At this moment, Yang Xi, leading 30,000 troops, Chen Yu Hefei west twenty miles down the village, has been a few days, the defenders of the city Zhang Xun strictly ordered the generals Li Feng, Le to wait, only need to restrain the department, not allowed to fight.

The city had already prepared enough grain and grass for 10,000 troops to hold on for more than a month, and under strict defense, 30,000 soldiers and horses would definitely not be able to attack.

Yang Xi led a few rides, to the west slope, looking at the city of Hefei from afar, and was greatly moved.

This fortified city, how many heroes and heroes have been blocked, and the disputes of the Three Kingdoms are because of this city, and I don't know how many famous generals have died. Because it is stuck between the two lakes, it is a strategic point of Lujiang County and Jiujiang County.

Yang Xi carefully calculated, Cao Cao and Sun Quan had twice carried out large-scale Hefei defensive battles, dozens of generals participated in the battle, all of them were famous generals in the world, Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, Li Dian, Le Jin, Sun Quan, Pan Zhang, Song Qian, Xu Sheng, Chen Wu, Ling Tong, Gan Ning, Lu Meng, Jiang Qin, He Qi, Gu Li, Dong Xi, Zhou Tai, Lu Xun, these people have fought for Hefei City, and some even stained Hefei with blood and buried forever.

"It seems that I am going to destroy this castle and build a new castle here, this is the second modern castle of my Tatsukawa Castle, and I can only use the gunpowder left by Yamamoto."

Yang Xi shook his head, this is a last resort.

If you don't destroy the other party, you will bring casualties to your side.

As soon as he said it, Yang Xi immediately ordered someone to make a fine measurement and choose the location and length of the excavation tunnel.

Just dig under the walls and plant the explosives.

At this time, the city walls were all built of rammed earth, and there was no foundation, dug to the foot of the city, piled up explosives, and pulled out the leads, ensuring that the city walls would be wiped out.

Liyang, Tai Shi Ci and Ji Ling fought for more than ten days, regardless of victory or defeat, the two of them took the fight as a habit, the most terrifying one, the two fought to the death for more than 300 years, regardless of victory or defeat, and finally Tai Shi Ci stabbed Ji Ling's horse to death, but Ji Ling pulled out his waist knife and cut off Tai Shi Ci's horse's legs.

The two abandoned their heavy weapons and fought hand-to-hand on the ground.

Tai Shi Ci practiced Yang Xijiao's Muay Thai and had the upper hand on the offensive, but it didn't work much, and in the end the two were injured in many places, but fortunately, the sergeants on both sides grabbed it back in time and did not continue.

In this battle, both of them rested for three days before continuing to fight.

"General Ji is strong in martial arts, why don't you give up Yuan Shu and come to serve my son-in-law? My son-in-law's chivalrous name is all over the world, only for the ordinary people to win a bright future, if there is General Ji's support, then the people of the world have more hope. ”

Tai Shi Ci started as a lobbyist.

Ji Ling said: "I am a general of General Yuan, General Yuan is the fourth and third dukes, I am a minister of the imperial court, how can I surrender to the rebellious ministers and thieves, General Taishi only talks about how to fight today, it is a foot war and horse battle, and I am not afraid." ”

So the two continued to fight again, and for more than ten days in a row, their weapons were changed several times, all due to the wear and tear of the confrontation.

At the end of February, Yang Xi sent a letter to Hefei City, which was an ultimatum.

Yang Xi spoke earnestly and persuaded Zhang Xun to surrender, saying that if he did not surrender within three days, he was afraid that the blood would flow like a river at that time.

Zhang Xun received the letter with a look of disdain on his face.

"Humph! Yang Xi'er, bluff, I don't go out of the city to fight, what can he do with me? ”

The generals on the left and right all laughed, saying that Yang Xi was ignorant, and twenty or thirty thousand soldiers and horses came to attack Hefei.

Three days later, Yang Xi decided to give Hefei City a dismissal, he didn't want to overturn the city, after all, there were 70,000 or 80,000 innocent people in the city.

So at the end of the first tunnel, the explosives pack was filled.

Yang Xi calculated that four grams of black powder produced about 280 liters of gas and a temperature of 1,000 degrees, and the black powder buried this time was enough to shatter about 100 meters of city walls.

Yang Xiding's deadline was approaching in a blink of an eye, and Zhang Xun led Li Feng and Le to watch from the city, and saw Yang Xi from a distance several miles away.

Yang Xi ordered people to shout away from the range of the opponent's bow and arrow.

"Childe has an order, General Zhang still has half a pillar of incense to think about, and once the time passes, Childe will order to take measures."

Zhang Xun saw that the shouting person hated it, so he personally took out his bow and arrows and shot an arrow.

Not to mention that Zhang Xun is still skilled in bows and arrows, far better than ordinary generals, at such a distance, the sergeant was actually shot in the thigh, and suddenly screamed.

Yang Xi ordered someone to snatch people back: "Send back to the medical team, listen to my orders, and light the fire!" ”

In the tunnel, the fuse was lit with a match, making a sizzling sound, and Yang Xi ordered the whole army to slowly retreat.

Cai Kao, Gan Ning, and Zu Lang didn't know which one Yang Xi was singing, but they just restrained the army and slowly retreated according to the order.

A few minutes later, a deafening loud bang resounded through the sky, and the ears of those present at this time were directly buzzing for several minutes.

As far as the eyes could see, they saw a huge wall of the city rising into the sky, and then falling with a bang, turning to ashes.

When the explosion sounded, countless clods of earth flew in all directions, and most of the Yuan soldiers were euthanized and did not suffer any pain, only people outside Li Xu had the opportunity to taste the pain and recall this scene that seemed to be the end of the world.

This is the first sound of the Han Dynasty, and it is not Hefei City that is bombed, not Yuan Shujun, which will directly blow up the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Xun didn't know what was going on, but fortunately he was standing on the tower above the city gate, a few miles away from the explosion site.

When he got up and looked next to him, Le and Li Feng had not yet gotten up, and they were wiping their nosebleeds.

"General, what happened?"

Zhang Xun said: "What did you say? ”

"Excuse me, General, what's the situation?"

Zhang Xun didn't hear what Le said, but only saw the shape of his mouth.

"I can't hear you!"

Zhang Xun yelled, he thought his voice was very small, but in fact, this voice had been transmitted for several miles, and even the miserable howl next to him was suppressed by him.

On Yang Xi's side, all the sergeants were dumbfounded.

"Childe? What's going on? Zulang asked.

"There's no situation, as soon as this thing comes out, the war is no longer something that can be reversed by manpower, but it can only be used as a deterrent, and there is no method to use it in large quantities for the time being, so lead the army and give them another chance. If he didn't surrender again, he would have to do it a few more times until he broke Yuan's fighting spirit. ”

Next, Cai Kao's cavalry was in front, the infantry was in the rear, the soldiers and horses were in formation, and the defenders in the city were all terrified.

Zhang Xun was sure that he was deaf, and he couldn't hear what Le Jie and Li Feng were talking about, and when Le Jie and Li Feng were about to help Zhang Xun down temporarily, they suddenly saw tens of thousands of armor soldiers slowly moving forward, and the army was already in range.

Le and Li Feng had no choice but to discuss with each other.

"General Le, the city wall has collapsed, and our army is no longer in danger to defend, if the other army comes to attack, how can it be good?"

"General Li is so unreasonable, at this time you ask me, how do I know, I am in the army, I have no military power, I am just a liaison envoy to the various armies, now that the army is attacking, I should go out of the city immediately and report this matter to General Yuan."

After that, Le actually gave up Li Feng, led a few of his own soldiers, and went to the city.

Li Feng knew that this Yang Xi did not besiege Hefei to death, but only recruited troops from Ximen.
