Chapter 783: Burning

There is usually a principle in war, which can be crushed by the national strength of nine out of ten, and it is better not to play tricks.

There are countless boats that capsize in the gutter.

In the past, Yang Zheng thought that Luoyang was not important, but from the perspective of a traverser.

And Luoyang plays an important role in the minds of people in this era.

Otherwise, Cao Wei would not have moved the capital from Xuchang to Luoyang.

400,000 Qin troops rushed to Hanoi.

The Jin general Wang Jun who guarded Luoyang was an old opponent.

After the Hedong War the year before last, Yang Zheng's soldiers approached the Yellow River and were blocked by Shi Bao and Wang Jun.

However, at that time, Sima Yan had not yet moved the capital, and Luoyang had soldiers and food.

The Yellow River is surging and roaring, and it is going to the east.

Wang Jun set up water camps in Mengjin Pass and Xiaopingjin Pass, and there were sentinel boats sneakily exploring the river every day.

After shooting a few persuasions, there was no movement on the other side, Wang Jun did not shed tears when he saw the coffin, and Yang Zheng was not polite, so he assembled the thunderbolt car by the river, prepared it with fireoil and aimed at the water village on the other side of the Yellow River.

Wang Jun also had a premonition of the crisis, and the navy floated down from the upper reaches in an attempt to destroy the Thunderbolt in one fell swoop.

However, his navy army only has two or three thousand people, and in front of the 400,000 Qin army, it is like an ant against an elephant.

Seeing that the shore was heavily fortified, the navy retreated after a few waves of arrow rain.

Since it is mainly to attack the heart, of course, to shock people's hearts to the greatest extent, Yang Zheng assembled more than 400 thunderbolts on the north bank, and temporarily built more than 100 trebuchets.

All the Menghuo oil in Guanzhong was transferred.

"Give Wang Jun a greeting gift first!" Yang Zheng wrote lightly.

"Yui!" Pang Qing raised the command flag, and the herald galloped away.

Then the drums of war roared.

More than 100 clay pots filled with water were thrown into the sky and flew towards the other side of the Yellow River.

On the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of people, on the mighty Yellow River, these black stones are too insignificant.

The strength and angle were not adjusted well, and some of the artillery stones smashed directly into the water, while others flew over the enemy's water village and fell to Mengjin Pass.

Only a few smashed into the camp and fell apart, causing no substantial damage.

The Jin army on the south bank hid at first, but then jumped out one by one, stretched their necks and pointed, and a burst of laughter came intermittently.

"What the fuck is this? It's better for his subordinates to rush over and chop off their dogs' heads. Liu Heng spat out.

The surrounding Qin soldiers were also unimpressed, whispering.

"You know a bird!" Yang Zheng cursed a swear word.

Isn't this guy best at playing with birds? There are more concubines in the family than in the palace.

Liu Heng was stunned, and it took a while to understand, and he laughed twice.

The first wave was just a test launch.

More than 600 thunderbolts and trebuchets constantly adjusted their distances.

After half the incense, Meng Guan drove his horse over, "Your Majesty, you have already taken aim." ”

"Don't be stingy with fire oil, as long as it works, no matter the cost, give me a hard beating!"

"Yui!"

The drums of war sounded again, but this time more passionately, resounding on both sides of the Yellow River.

The soldiers on both sides of the strait all looked at each other with blank eyes, and some of them were unimpressed.

The Lingqi on the north shore was suddenly under his command, the thunderbolts let out a neat tremble, and the clay pots whistled across the sky.

More than 600 clay pots, which still look insignificant.

However, when the clay pot smashed into the Jin army's water village, it suddenly burst, and flames gushed out, devouring everything around it.

Wood, water, stone, armor, people......

Everything was engulfed in flames.

The Jin army's ridicule soon turned into screams, and their bodies struggled and twisted in the flames......

As long as it is dipped in a little bit of oil, the flame will be like a maggot on the tarsal bones, and it will not be extinguished even if you jump into the water.

Alchemy is also a subject in the Great Qin Taixue, and countless alchemists and alchemists from all over the world have poured in, increasing the power of Menghuo oil, which is naturally not a problem.

The Jin army's water village was instantly ignited.

But the thunderbolt of the Qin army still did not stop, and waves of Menghuo oil were thrown to the south bank, and even Mengjin Pass was set on fire.

It was as if the entire South Shore was burning.

The fire spread to the Yellow River, and then the Yellow River was ignited.

Flames rose into the air, and black smoke billowed out.

The thunderbolts and catapults of the Qin army still did not stop, frantically throwing furious flames at the opposite shore.

All the Qin troops held their breath and stared, the impact of Menghuo Oil with them was too great.

Qianghu, Eyi, Mobei Zhubu Yicong, etc., all opened their eyes wide.

Attack the heart first.

It was not only the hearts of the Jin army that attacked, but also theirs.

Yang Zheng didn't mind showing the most powerful and powerful side of Great Qin.

"Hooray! Banzai! ”

Soon, the consternation turned into cheers, first roaring from the mouths of the Han army, then the Qiang people, and the ......

The whole North Shore was boiling.

Some people from the Qiang, Jia, Ba, Xianbei and other tribes knelt by the Yellow River and bowed to the blazing flames on the south bank.

The effect that Yang Zheng wanted was achieved.

The fire burned for nearly two hours before it slowly extinguished, and only a twisted charred corpse remained on the south bank, black ash everywhere, and Mengjin Pass was abandoned.

With such sharp weapons as thunderbolts and Menghuo oil in hand, how could Wang Jun's Yellow River defense line withstand it?

The army crossed the river smoothly and advanced towards Luoyang.

"How much more is Menghuo oil?" Yang Zheng asked quietly.

"Less than a thousand ......," Meng Guan also responded in a low voice.

"What? Didn't I get more than 10,000 of them, and they were gone in just two hours? ”

It is quite cumbersome to make, store and transport Menghuo oil.

In three or four months, less than 20,000 were obtained, and more than half of them were gone in the first war, and some were not transferred from the rear.

"Your Majesty said that as long as it works, regardless of the cost, the ministers and ministers will not be able to stop ......?" Meng Guan branched out.

Yang Zheng had a pain in his flesh, but it would definitely cost him some price to make such a big noise just now.

But Luoyang has to rely on human life to pile up.

Wang Jun is a well-known hard bone, and he is also the only general in the Sima family who can take his hands, and he is highly favored by Sima Zhao.

After persuading him to surrender so many times, he should be like Tang Bin, who would rather die than surrender.

Of course, Wang Jun's surrender or not cannot change Luoyang's predicament.

Luoyang is actually already an isolated city.

Since Sima Yan moved the capital to Yecheng, he would never fight a decisive battle with the Qin army here.

The army of 400,000 slowly wrapped around Luoyang like a giant snake.

With 30,000 defenders under Wang Jun's command, it must have been a bloody battle.

Since it is a war to destroy the country, bloody battles and bitter battles are definitely indispensable.

Yang Zheng didn't want to take a shortcut.

"The last general is willing to be a pioneer!" Liu Heng took the lead in asking for battle as usual.

However, someone was more anxious than him, Gou Xi knelt down on one knee in front of Yang Zheng, "My subordinates are willing to be forwards." ”

The younger a person is, the more ambitious he becomes.

"Okay." Yang Zheng is willing to train young people, "I personally beat the drums, if I can break the city, I will be promoted to the governor of the tent!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gou Xi's face was full of red light, and the surrounding generals looked envious.

The thunderbolt car was reassembled under the city, although there was not much fire oil, but there were many stones near Luoyang, which could also hit the defenders in the city.

Rows of armor soldiers shine in the summer sun.

"Break the city! Break the city! Gou Xihuan's head slapped against the shield with a rumbling sound.

A thousand elites behind him also patted him, "Break the city!" Break the city! ”

Yang Zheng looked at Luoyang under the scorching sun and beat the first war drum.

"Kill!" Gou Xi's sideburns were upside down, and he let out a wolf-like cry.

However, before he could take a step, the urn gate of Luoyang creaked open.

Wang Jun led a group of generals to come out of the school......

With a "clang", Gou Xi's sword and shield were thrown on the ground, "Spineless!" ”
