"Dig tunnels and blow up this town wall. I don't believe it, we tens of thousands of horses can't take the small Liulin Town! ”

Lan Chaozhu, who led the main force to retreat to the outside of Liulin Town, waved his hand, overflowing with pride.

He just used Liu Xian to vent his anger, and he had a sullen breath that Xi Kenan Zheng couldn't get.

Chen Tianzhu and Yang Guangshu's generation, if it weren't for the strong and towering Fucheng, how could the courageous army resist their own army!

couldn't take Nanzheng Mansion City, Lan Chaozhu was sincerely unconvinced.

King Han Xian gave an order, and tens of thousands of righteous troops naturally obeyed. The cannon continued to roar, and the rumbling sound of the cannon was able to drown out the sound of digging into the ground. On the ground, the feints of the rebels also came from time to time, and they also played a covering role.

But God doesn't fulfill people's wishes, who is Liu Xian in the town? In the era of Xianfeng Tongzhi, China fought a war, and one of the tricks that must be prevented is to dig tunnels and put coffins. I don't know how many dangerous cities the Taiping Army has won by relying on this trick before, how could Liu Xian not guard against Li Lanjun outside also giving himself such a trick.

Behind the brick wall of the town, a cylinder is set up every 20 meters, a bamboo pipe is buried, and those with outstanding ear strength in the army or young and strong laborers are selected to be guarded separately. In addition to the rumbling cannon sound, the water in the water tank and the bamboo pipe buried in the ground, but whenever the enemy digs a tunnel and rushes here, the water tank will ripple, and the bamboo pipe can hear the sound of the ground. After the report, Liu Xian had a target!

Lan Chaozhu didn't let Liu Xian wait long, and that night, Liu Xian appeared in front of a jar under the brick wall in the south of the town. "Are you sure it's here?"

Asked Ding Zhuang beside him.

"Master Liu, the little one is sure to be here."

Ding Zhuang pointed to the sky and the earth with certainty.

"That's good. As long as you win, you will have a reward of ten taels of silver. He also leaned down and listened to the half-sound at the mouth of the bamboo pipe, but did not hear the slightest sound. This is the point that is difficult to determine in this report!

"Zhou Jun!"

"Here."

"Take your second brigade and come to the south entrance to ambush according to the arrangement we have agreed."

Liu Xian suspected that if the tunnel below really existed, there was no movement at the moment, was it already dug and dug up? Of course, there is also the possibility of temporarily stopping digging, but he does not dare to bet on this possibility. I don't know when it's going to blow up.

Thinking of yesterday and today, Li Lanjun made a feint attack in the south of the town, and the accuracy of this tunnel has been enhanced by a few points.

Therefore, the second brigade of the Zhou army was transferred just in case. The two people were left to continue to keep an eye on the movements of the water tank and the bamboo tube.

At dawn, in a place south of Liulin Town, dozens of young and strong laborers were working hard to dig the land. The sound of movement below could be heard again in the early morning, and it was clear that the tunnels below had not been dug properly. In this way, Liu Xian has the means to counter him.

Jug and smoking, the two most commonly used moves, the first one, does not work.

There is no shortage of water in Liulin Town, but it is only a small town, and it is impossible to have a protective river, and there are difficulties in the prerequisites for water diversion and irrigation. Liu Xian chose the second type, smoked.

As long as both sides are dug through, a pile of dry firewood is poured into it, and a pot of boiling oil is poured on it, and a fire can burn half of the people below to death......

Lan Chaozhu looked at Liulin Town with an ugly face. This was the ninth day of the battle in Liulin Town, and the third day he had been outside Liulin Town.

Last night, two days of hard work were ruined. Of the more than 50 rebel soldiers who dug tunnels, only about 20 survived. Lan Chaozhu's disappointment was small, and he didn't care about the loss, but he felt that his face was damaged.

Today, he is going to be tough.

Attacking from the north, south and west, digging trenches to reach under the town wall, and covering the loess with wood and iron plywood for protection. Directly chisel the town wall, drill a big hole in the wall, and fill it with gunpowder.

Lan Chaozhu stood straight in front of the military formation, and he wanted to watch the brick wall of Liulin Town collapse and collapse. Lan Chaozhu deeply believed that as long as the brick wall collapsed, Ding Yong, the militia in the town, would instantly lose confidence and flee for his life. He wanted to capture Liu Xian alive and hand it over to Su Yi to concoct well.

"Knock, knock......"

Two iron bullets struck the brick wall, and the aftermath vibrate.

"Quick, get the powder bag down—"

In the small fort, Hu Zhongyuan shouted loudly the moment the cannonball fell. The three men in the fort did not hesitate, and one of them picked up a few gunpowder packs and rushed out.

The hill-splitting cannon had been carried down, the firing cannons had been taken down, and the only valuable items left in the fort were gunpowder packs, and as for the buckets and cotton sleeves on the side, there were as many as there were in the town.

After eight or nine days of shelling, the people on the wall also found that there was an interval between the shells falling back and forth.

Without mentioning the level of artillery operation of Li Lanjun's gunners, it is said that Li Lanjun's small 20 heavy artillery pieces are rare in this place in Hanzhong, but they cannot suppress the strong firepower of the small fort at the head of the wall at all. Unless Li Lanjun concentrates all the heavy artillery and bombards it at one or two batteries.

But in this way, the other forts on the wall will be relaxed, and the forts on the other town walls in Liulin Town will be completely liberated.

Li Lanjun will not do this, and Lan Chaozhu will maintain pressure on the entire Liulin Town. And in this way, the danger on the head of the town wall is really not a danger.

As long as you wait for the nearby shell to land, there is time to run up and down for a round trip.

This is how the mountain splitting cannon on the top of the wall was lifted down.

Li Lanjun's hard-eating tactics can't be stopped by Liu Xian. The thick wooden planks and a layer of iron plates that are not known to be thick, as well as the loess covering, the mountain splitting guns are all gnawed. Li Lanjun used this as a shield cart to advance along the trench, although he had not yet reached the corner of the wall, Liu Xian had already expected the final outcome.

If the wall is stiffened, he will at most blow up a few shield carts with gunpowder packs. As long as Li Lanjun covered the damaged or undestroyed shield car board to the line of the trench, the outcome would be irreversible.

Liulin Town has survived to this day, and fortunately, Liu Xian has the intention of fighting in the streets. After most of the people were evacuated, they began to prepare the layout of the town's facilities.

Now that Li Lanjun has gone to Liulin Town, the town wall is about to be blown up immutablely. The protection he can still rely on is the new changes in the town these days.

"Boom ......"

There was a lot of blasting and collapse sounds, and the west wall and south wall of Liulin Town collapsed at the same time.

"Brothers, kill me ......"

Su Yi, who had a deep scar on his forehead, blood gushing, shouted and waved the machete in his hand, and took the lead towards Liulin Town.

This long-cherished wish that has been buried in his heart is about to be completed. Su Yi seemed to see Liu Xian kneeling on his knees in front of him, feces and urine flowing together, frightened his liver and gallbladder, and kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Lao Tzu wants to take revenge today. Brethren, the time has come to avenge the brothers who died in the battle last month......"

"Kill me ......"

"Kill......"

In response, the hundreds of rebels who followed behind Su Yi were angry and enthusiastic.
