323. Siege

"Jiedu envoy, Empress Xiao promised us that she could assist us when we attacked the city. We can attack the city tomorrow, so that they will attack the old boy's station and capture Jieli in one fell swoop! Qiao Shiwang said.

When Jingwen heard this answer, he immediately said, "Okay! In that case, let's attack right tomorrow! ”

The next morning, the Snow Shame Army began to attack. According to the plan, they directly resorted to the most direct, violent, and effective method of attack, which was to blow up the walls with rockets. The so-called rocket missile, this is a special rocket that Jingwen instructed Yuan Hua, a chemist and chief engineer of the military industry, to make zuò. This kind of rocket does not mainly injure the enemy by fragments, but mainly destroys certain strong defenses by explosive force. The gunpowder increased the proportion of saltpeter considerably, and it was divided into two sections. The second half used millet gunpowder as the propellant, while the first half of the warhead did the opposite, using bombs with a high nitrate content to increase their power. In addition, this rocket missile still has a large size, which can be used to blow up city walls. The ancient city walls were very fragile, and it was difficult to resist them under the direct blasting of this black powder.

"Firearms battalion, up!" Jingwen shouted.

Yuan Hua, the deputy commander and chief engineer of the firearms battalion, began to direct everyone to fire large rockets and missiles at the opposite city wall.

"What's that? Flew over? "The Turks clearly did not know what that rocket was.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the walls were blown up.

The Turks hurriedly shouted: "Oh my God! What's going on? ”

"Could it be that the Han people have monsters?" "Yes, there are monsters, otherwise why would the city wall be broken so much at once?" ……

The Turks are well aware of the usefulness of the city wall, although the Turks are invincible in cavalry, but once they encounter the city wall, the Turks have no choice. Originally, the Turks thought that they could rely on the city wall to defend against the Han attack, but now the city wall is unreliable? The Turkic people had much less scientific consciousness than the Han Chinese, and they thought it was the monsters who were doing it.

"Good! Go on! Jingwen shouted.

Jingwen saw that the first rockets were so powerful, so naturally he had to continue. And this kind of rocket is flat-fired. Therefore, one dozen and one accurate, there is no need to worry about the inaccuracy caused by the bending of the trajectory.

"Boom, Boom, Boom Boom ......" a lot of rockets and missiles were hit on the city wall, and as a result, the Turks did not dare to stand on the city wall, because they were afraid that these rockets and missiles would blow them up. Just now, some of the Turks were shocked to death because they were standing on it.

"Well, the Turks don't dare to stay on the city wall anymore, let the blast connect and blow up a section of the city wall! Two crossbow regiments suppressed. Jingwen shouted.

Although missiles are very powerful, they are also expensive and not worth using them often. And. Although this missile is a flat launch, the accuracy is not a missile after all, and it cannot be allowed to hit the same place every time, which will be very wasteful and the effect is not good. Since the Turks no longer dared to stand on top of the walls, they sent a demolition company to blow up one section of the wall with explosives. In this way, you can directly lead the army to attack and break the city directly. As for the crossbow regiment suppression, it was according to the previous tactics, using the bow and crossbow to cover the demolition company. Allows them to avoid enemy bow damage.

"Tell the brothers, if the Turks dare to shoot arrows at the city walls, shoot them to death!" The commander of the crossbow regiment shouted.

And under the cover of two crossbow regiments, the explosives of the demolition company were delivered under the city walls with great ease. Then he chose a section of the city wall that had been blown up the most by the missiles just now, and stuffed the gunpowder into the groove that had just been blown out. This is researched by Yuan Hua, which can also maximize the power of explosives and avoid the waste of gunpowder gas.

"Boom!" A large breach was blown open in one section of the wall.

Jingwen saw it. shouted: "Jiang Xiong, lead the Modao Heavy Infantry Regiment to kill out and rush in through the gap." Expand the results. Crossbowmen cover! ”

These are the plans made by the Military Affairs Department before, once the gap is opened, then let the Modao troops rush in, so as to hold the gap as much as possible, and avoid expanding the results of the next infantry charge.

"The Han people are attacking, go for reinforcements!" The Turks shouted.

The Turkic cavalry hurriedly rushed towards the gap, only to be photographed by the Modao regiment.

"Good chance!" Jiang Xiong, the commander of the Modao Regiment, shouted.

"Thorn!" Jiang Xiong shouted.

"Next wipe!" The dozens of Mo knife hands at the front of the queue immediately stabbed over.

At this time, the Turks had just reached that gap, but although the gap was large for one person, it was too small for an army. Especially the Turkic cavalry, they couldn't stuff a few people into it at all, but they were guarded by the Mo knife hand and caught the turtle in the urn. With such a small gap, the cavalry strength of the Turks could not be used, and they could only fight in the narrow gap. However, more than a dozen of their cavalrymen had to face the attack of dozens of Mo knives at the same time, and they were all hacked to death by Mo swordsmen, men and horses.

The same is true of the cavalry behind, who are squeezed up by the people behind, but have to face several times the enemy, and their own cavalry cannot give full play to their advantages, and the result is miserable.

"Retreat! Retreat, you can't do it here! The leader of the cavalry of the Turks immediately shouted.

Upon hearing this order, the rear cavalry of the Turks would immediately retreat, and then try to hold back the Snow Shame army against the streets.

"Hahaha, don't you know, our Mo knife pair is a meat grinder? Isn't it better for you to do this than just now? Jiang Xiong laughed.

The Modao troops lined up in rows, and then gradually advanced down the narrow streets with Modao knives, while the Turkic cavalry couldn't help but retreat again and again. This is the street in the city, and the cavalry and infantry are fighting in the streets.

"Retreat outside the city!" The cavalry leader shouted.

"Chief, no, the Khan is still in the city!"

"Hey!"

"Go to the Khan and break out with the Khan!" The cavalry leader shouted.

This cavalry leader no longer expected to be able to defeat the Tang army, because this was a city, and the Turks were not good at street fighting. If it is a steppe, it is still possible for the Turkic generals to fight, because they can attack from the flanks. But there are houses everywhere, and it would be wishful thinking to attack from the flanks. Attacking head-on, it is impossible and cannot run to accumulate impact, so it can only be slaughtered by the Tang army. In this case, you can still dodge it! (To be continued......)
