"Then we engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, killing three thousand enemies, and our invincible flying army lost one thousand, and the cavalry lost two thousand."

"The enemy army could not take it, so they retreated on their own and did not leave Tongtian County again."

Chen Mu nodded, it seems that the Cheng family did not dare to issue guns to the soldiers, otherwise hand-to-hand combat may not be the result.

"Excellent! To be able to defend this city, all the kings have a credit! ”

"It's just that the craftsmen who have to work hard to build the city wall, after repairing Weishan City, they will also build Tongtian City."

Li Fengteng stood up suddenly, "His Royal Highness the Prince, are we going to attack the city?" ”

Chen Mu nodded, "That's right, let them see the firepower of Great Xia!" ”

"I'll arrange the tactics."

Chen Mu pointed to the map and began to assign tasks to everyone.

Three days later, Chen Mu led his troops to the east gate of Tongtian City, and lined up to prepare for the siege.

Above the city, Cheng Wu pointed to the red-clothed cannon outside the city and said, "Is it a cannon under the red cloth?" ”

Cheng Lu said with some unconfidence: "No, how could they build a cannon so quickly?" ”

Cheng Tang: "Yes, they just snatched two cars and a few rifles, at most they were imitation rifles." ”

Cheng Wu: "Well, they have a thousand rifles, and the productivity of Great Xia is very strong." ”

Cheng Zhi still didn't want to face the facts, "How can this be?" The structure of the rifle is easy to imitate, but how did they imitate gunpowder? ”

They were chatting here, and Chen Mu outside the city had already begun to act.

After arranging the formation, Chen Mu observed the situation at the head of the city, and then ordered Li Feng to lead the cavalry into two teams, bypassing both sides of the city, surround Tongtian City, and not let the Cheng family escape.

Then let the Invincible Flying Army artillery team lift the red cloth and begin to adjust the angle, ready to fire.

The Invincible Flying Army Muskets climbed twenty wells and prepared to start firing.

After everyone was in place, Chen Mu waved his hand.

"Fire!"

Rumble! ——

Ten heavy artillery pieces made an earth-shattering sound, smashing ten cannonballs on the city tower and city gates, shaking the city walls of Tongtian County.

Twenty light artillery pieces also opened fire, and they aimed at the rebels on the city walls. The shells fired were one size smaller than the heavy guns, but the rate of fire was faster.

Shells flew over the battlefield, and ghosts cried wolf howls above the city.

Coupled with the fire coverage of the musketeers, the entire city wall was strewn with corpses.

The Cheng family understands the power of guns, and when the artillery of the Great Xia Army adjusts the angle, they have already escaped from the city wall, otherwise they would have turned to ashes now.

Cheng Wu's face turned pale, "How is it possible?" Their cannons are farther than ours? The range of the rifle is also so long? ”

Cheng Zhi is already on the verge of collapse, "Impossible, impossible, impossible, impossible ......"

Cheng Tang gritted his teeth, "Withdraw!" ”

Cheng Lu suddenly came to his senses, "The head of the family! You can't withdraw it! ”

"We've finally taken over this land, and if we produce a few more cannons, we'll be able to take a second city! Once we retreat, there will be no one to produce cannons for us! ”

Cheng Tang slapped Cheng Shu violently.

"Enough! How can a city compete with a country for production? ”

"Didn't you say that Great Xia's technology is very backward? What now? Their cannons are more advanced than ours! ”

"How is this battle fought?"

"Withdraw!"

Cheng Zhi stopped talking.

……

Outside the city, Chen Mu saw that there were no living people in the city, so he ordered the attack to stop.

Chen Mu took two steps forward and shouted loudly: "People who have a family! Did you see that? This is the power of Great Xia! ”

"Just a few dozen people, just want to destroy Great Xia, it's really arrogant and ignorant!"

"How can earthworms eat chickens?"

Seeing that Cheng's family didn't come out to reply, Chen Mu understood that they might be trying to escape.

Chen Mu shouted again:

"The people of Great Xia in the city!"

"You have never seen weapons like this, so I don't blame you for worshipping them as gods!"

"As long as you can repent and capture the foreign thieves, you will still be good sons and daughters of Great Xia!"

When the Great Xia soldiers and civilians in the city heard Chen Mu's words, their minds became lively.

At first, they were indeed shocked by the technology of the Cheng family, and felt that Great Xia could not resist at all. But later, the people who robbed the grain and grass never returned, and the Cheng family collected the grain and grass from the residents, and everyone was very dissatisfied.

It's good now, the cannon brought by Chen Mu can hit the city from such a distance, and the cannon of the Cheng family can't fight back at all.

What else is there for the family?

Now with a counterattack, if you are lucky, you can still catch a Cheng family, and you will definitely be rewarded by His Royal Highness the Prince.

The rebel soldiers looked at each other and all made a decision. Then climb the city wall and head towards the west gate.

At this time, the Cheng family had all gotten on the steam locomotive with guns in their hands. Seeing that every person in Daxia felt threatened, but they didn't dare to shoot casually, because the bullets were limited.

They fled towards the west gate, and before they could reach the west gate, they were shot at them with bows and arrows. The Cheng family also killed a few people, and several of them were also shot.

"Quick!"

"Accelerate!"

Cheng Tang shouted desperately, and the car also accelerated desperately, knocking over countless stalls along the way.

But when he arrived at the West Gate, Cheng Tang's heart was half cold. For he saw hundreds of archers waiting at the head of the city.

However, the Cheng family had no choice but to continue to rush forward, and only by rushing out of the gate could they have a chance to escape.

Although the gate was closed, the car did not slow down and continued to rush towards the gate. The archers at the head of the city and the muskets of the Cheng family fired together, each suffering casualties.

The Cheng family, who were walking in front, threw an explosive bag at the gate, then opened fire and ignited a flame, shattering the gate.

The Cheng family finally rushed out of the door.

The family members around him kept dying, but at this time, no one could take care of anyone, so they could only rush forward.

After rushing out of the gate, there were only ten cars left in the family. And outside the city, nearly 10,000 cavalry waited.

As soon as the Cheng family came out, the cavalry rushed towards them, firing repeaters as they went.

The Cheng family desperately threw explosives bags, blew up a passage, and rushed out while the cavalry did not encircle again.

But the gap was not large, the cavalry turned around, and two more cars were left with a round of crossbows.

In desperation, the Cheng family divided four carts, rushed towards the cavalry, and then detonated the explosives package on the car.

In the end, only one steam locomotive broke out of the encirclement.

Li Feng led his troops to chase him out, but when he arrived in the desert area, he lost the trace of the car, and the carpet search did not find it, so he had to give up the pursuit.

In addition to the three people in the car, there were four adult family members who were captured in the scuffle.
