Chapter Twenty-Four: Winter Thunder and Earthquake

Finally, a few hundred words of rocket successfully ignited the gunpowder. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The continuous "boom" sound immediately made a hole about thirty meters or so appear in the city wall, and the soldiers standing on the city wall actually flew up.

No one thought that gunpowder, which was used for the first time in actual combat, would have such great power.

Even Changsun Tang was a little underestimated about the power of gunpowder, looking at the broken stone bricks and stumps and broken arms that were blown up by thousands of catties of gunpowder, and Changsun Tang, who was standing on the high platform and was yellowed by the shock wave a few times, couldn't help but want to vomit, but couldn't.

As the advocate of this incident, Changsun Tang can be said to be directly responsible for these hundreds of lives, but this is not child's play after all, but war.

There is no right or wrong, no sympathy in war, there is only victory or defeat or the benefits that can be obtained after victory.

The eldest grandson reluctantly got off the high platform, and as soon as he returned to the tent, his legs were weak, if it weren't for Xiao Nuxia's quick eyes, this approved dog would not be able to run away from the mud.

Man is not a killing machine after all, and the orders given in the first few times have nothing to do with him. People are so strange, when they have nothing to do with themselves, they are like spectators, but when things come to the end, some other thoughts will always arise.

In the next battle, Changsun Tang did not participate, but basically the overall situation was decided.

The gunpowder not only blew up the city wall of dozens of meters, but also completely blew up the determination of the Tuyuhun people to resist.

When the eldest grandson had just stepped down from the high platform, the king of Tuyuhun, Murong Fuyun, and the king of Xiangguo Tianzhu also received a report.

Due to Murong Fuyun's advanced age in recent years and his lack of much governance, King Tianzhu, who was the actual ruler of Tuyuhun in recent years, asked, "What's going on with this loud bang just now?" ”

When the messenger heard the inquiry, Taylor, who had originally bowed his head, got up and said, "Xiangguo, the north side of this city wall has collapsed, and because of this loud noise, they all say that it was the work of the god of thunder. ”

The Heavenly Pillar King said sharply: "What thunder god, this is all nonsense. ”

As Murong Fuyun's eldest son, Murong Shun had long been dissatisfied with the monopoly of the Heavenly Pillar King, and said: "This must be someone who disobeyed the will of heaven and angered the heavens, so the divine thunder has been sent as a warning, don't you think you should be responsible for this matter, King Tianzhu?" ”

Dayan Mangjiebo is the second son of Murong Fuyun, because Murong Shun has been in Chang'an during the Sui Dynasty, he was made the crown prince, and he has long been in collusion with the King of Tianzhu these years. ”

Murong Fuyun had no idea at this time, for so many years, relying on the war in the Central Plains, Tuyuhun was able to develop and grow, Murong Fuyun was not a very thoughtful person, and he turned his head to look at the Tianzhu King.

The Heavenly Pillar King was silent.

"How about we descend? It's been like this for the first few times, as long as you take it softly, it will be fine again in a few years, and everything will be back to the original state. "Murong Fuyun didn't want to die.

King Tianzhu coughed lightly: "King, don't forget, this matter of destroying relatives and robbing the Tang Dynasty, we can all surrender, only the king." ”

Murong Fuyun was a little silent, and couldn't help but say, "Why is this? ”

King Tianzhu knew that once he surrendered, as the mastermind behind these things, he would definitely have no good fruit to eat, so he continued to bewitch: "The current emperor of the Tang Dynasty is not like in the past, and this past was subject to miasma, I Tuguhun can naturally be safeguarded, but now I have been beaten to the city, and now surrendering will definitely not end well, even if I can live, but the matter of Jieli Khan is happening right now." ”

Jieli, who was captured back to Chang'an last year, finally died, very wretched.

Murong Fuyun hesitated: "What can I do about this." ”

"Report, king, the Tang army has attacked the inner city, and the defenders are panicked, and they can't hold it anymore." This royal city of Tuyuhun is also modeled on Chang'an City, with an inner city and an outer city.

Murong Shun said at this time: "Father, no matter what, we can't be captured by them, let's take this opportunity to escape first, the Tang people say 'stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood'." ”

Dayan Mangjie Bo immediately retorted: "Coward, how can there be a Tuyuhun who escaped. ”

Murong Shun continued: "Then it's better for you to lead the troops and be responsible for guarding the inner city, second brother." ”

"This ......" Dayan Mangjie hesitated, he himself was not a person with great talents, otherwise this big circle would not have been mastered by the Heavenly Pillar King.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable, the Tianzhu King said: "Let's withdraw first, the Tuyuhun people are a people on horseback, as long as there are horses, there is a future." What do you think, Lord? ”

Murong Fuyun hurriedly said, "Okay, just follow what Xiangguo said." ”

Duan Zhixuan naturally didn't know about this scene, but the news from the pioneer Li Junxian was indeed real, this Tuyuhun city was too easy to fight, just a charge, the breach was successfully occupied, and the city gate was opened. The army rarely encountered resistance everywhere, and many people quickly threw away their weapons as soon as they saw the Tang army.

It was only blocked at the second wall.

Duan Zhixuan immediately thought of the seemingly omnipotent Changsun Xu, the somewhat mysterious Changsun Xu, and something called gunpowder, which was full of power, and what was even more effective was that it almost completely disintegrated the will of the Tuyuhun people to resist.

But after thinking about it, he didn't know how many of this thing there were, and he didn't know if there were other taboos on the use of this thing, from gunpowder to the barracks, even he, the head of the march, had no authority to investigate the degree of secrecy of this thing.

What's more, if you rely on these things every time you fight, what's the use of having your own generals.

Sometimes honor is really more important than life, especially when you can exchange other people's lives for your own honor. That's probably what "one will make ten thousand bones dry" probably means.

Li Junxian felt that the best siege battle for this matter was as easy as eating tofu brains in Mochiyue Tower, and the source of his association was that he had just smashed the head of a Tuyuhun soldier who was about to attack him, this foolish idea is really incomprehensible to ordinary people.

Li Junxian was gathering the army, and the fight was too smooth, he only cared about this and rushed forward, and there were less than 200 people left around him, looking at the inner city wall in front of him, which was as high as three zhang, even if he was brainless to the point of Li Junxian, he would not plan to attack it with these 200 or so people.

Li Junxian led these people back a few hundred steps, ready to wait for the large group of men and horses and siege equipment to come up and attack the city in one go.

While preparing for the siege, the gates of the inner city were opened.

Li Junxian was a little resentful, this time he came to this Xihai Road, as a pioneer, he didn't have enough fun, this is unforgivable, he had the idea of rushing up to cut down the surrendered person, but thinking about General Duan's power, in the end, he could only quickly send people to occupy the city gate and a section of the city wall.

Li Junxian has too few people, just one city gate, and the Tuyuhun people can easily retake it with a charge. (To be continued.) )
