Zhao Mengqi lay on the ground, and at the moment of the thunder explosion, he was stunned, as if time had frozen.

Immediately his mind was buzzing, and he could hear nothing in his ears except a strange hissing, and at the same time there was a violent concussion on the ground, which made his whole body numb and his heart beat to a halt before he resumed beating several beats.

, my posture seems a little wrong......

Zhao Mengqi, who realized it later, realized at this time that it was right to lie down, but his chest, abdomen and head should not be on the ground.

Fortunately, it was far away, the problem was not big, and it did not cause much damage, and then he felt the sandbag shake violently, and then he heard a "bang", and his ears regained hearing.

Crackling Lala...... Ding-bang......

After a chaotic and dense sound, Zhao Mengqi slowly got up and looked at it.

I dripping turtle turtle...

The bronze bell or something has disappeared, and the city wall has also been blown into a small gap, and the square circle near the gap is clean, but the surrounding area is full of fragments of various sizes. cao

Belch... The gunpowder seems to be a bit overloaded.

Can it not be more, more than ten catties of newly prepared gunpowder were stuffed into the bronze bell, I wanted to make a shotgun mortar, that is, a big troll, but I didn't expect it to become a "broadsword directional mine", which is still unqualified.

At this time, he saw a piece of a bronze bell with a large head falling outside the sandbag pile, and he couldn't help but be afraid for a while, but fortunately he was cautious and did a good job of protection.

"Didn't you say that bronze is tougher and less likely to burst?" Zhao Mengqi muttered to himself.

It is true that the bronze is tough, otherwise it would not have been used to cast cannons later, but this bronze bell was left by the Han Dynasty, and it has been many years.

This is a proper cultural relic, it was destroyed by Zhao Mengqi like this, what a loser!

Moreover, even if it is a regular bronze cannon, it can't withstand more than a dozen catties of gunpowder, and if it doesn't explode, there will be ghosts.

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?"

A loud roar sounded in his ears, startling Zhao Mengqi.

Turning his head, Chen Xiaokun and the others also got up, all of them were full of shock, staring at Zhao Mengqi like a god.

The gazes of dozens of big men were too hot, which frightened Zhao Mengqi Juhua, and hurriedly straightened his face, "Do you all look at ***?!" Why don't you hurry back to the defense?"

"What?"

Chen Xiaokun and the others could only see Yan Wang's mouth moving, but they couldn't hear what he was saying.

Looking at their confused expressions, Zhao Mengqi realized that most people were temporarily deaf due to the shock, so he had to point to the city and make a gesture, and then took the lead to run towards the gap.

Everyone came to their senses and hurried to follow with their weapons.

Zhao Mengqi went to the side of the gap, and when he looked out, his eyes were full of messes, like hell on earth.

The slope had collapsed a bit near the city walls, but it was largely preserved, and this improvised thing was much better than many of the tofu scum projects.

On the slope, two or three zhang li is also empty, behind first the stumps and broken armor and shields, and then the slightly intact corpses, the further back and more dense, piled together in different postures, until the rear, there is no one who can stand.

And on the field, there were rebels fleeing in a hurry, weapons and armor were thrown everywhere, as if there were some monsters in Wujiang City, and they didn't even have the courage to look back.

"I'm God, more than 200 armorers are gone?"

"Your Highness is really a god, and the thunder will determine the future!"

"This is a thousand times sharper than the earth-shaking thunder, with this thing to defend the city, even if there are another 100,000 rebels, don't think about getting closer to the city!"

"Haha, my Great Song Dynasty has such an artifact, where is there any need to be afraid of Mongolia***, sweeping the world and restoring the Central Plains is just around the corner."

Originally, everyone felt that they had fallen into a desperate situation, as long as they waited for these hoplites to step on the city wall, all they could do was to struggle to the death, but they didn't expect that an ancient bell would become an artifact to break the enemy in the hands of King Yan.

The desperate situation and the earth-shattering reversal naturally made everyone excited.

Zhao Mengqi himself didn't expect to kill

The effect will be so good, and my heart is also beautiful, although I understand that everyone's words are too exaggerated, but I didn't say anything to disappoint the fun.

If you want to defeat Mongolia with a single gunpowder, where is it possible.

In terms of weapons, the Great Song Dynasty has always been the most advanced and perfect, stronger than the Western Xia, the Liao State, the Jin State, and even the Mongolia, but in the end it was the Great Song Dynasty that lost.

The military strength of the Great Song Dynasty is actually not weak, and the victory rate of foreign battles is quite high, at least seven times out of ten times can be won, but it is a pity that the legs are short, and if you win, you will not be able to expand the results, and if you lose, it is likely that the whole army will be annihilated.

In Zhao Mengqi's view, the Great Song Dynasty was weak in its conservative and introverted thinking and emphasizing literature over military force, if the thinking of the ruling class did not change, even if the Great Song army was equipped with muskets and artillery, it would be useless, and it might accelerate its own demise.

After all, technology spreads, and the Mongols have always been quick to learn everything that is good for war.

Even if the secrecy work is done to the extreme and is not stolen by the Mongols, then at most it will only keep this half of the country for a few more years.

And changing the mind, not only to change the emperor's mind is useful, the Great Song Dynasty is not without an enterprising emperor, such as the Shenzong who likes to wear armor, but unfortunately he is not resolute enough, and he does not dare to wear it again after being counted by the old lady once.

The Great Song Dynasty was not so much that scholars and emperors ruled the world together, but that the emperor ruled the world on behalf of the scholars and doctors.

In fact, it is also his helplessness, because no matter what changes are made, governance is inseparable from the scholar class, and he wants to let vested interests take the initiative to open the knife on himself, isn't that a dream?

Zhao Mengqi realized this, so he could only try to explore a different route and change his own life.

"Oh, no, there are still people who can move, they are not dead!"

An exclamation made Zhao Mengqi refocus his gaze on the slope.

I saw that near the bottom of the slope, people squirmed, and some people staggered to their feet, gradually increasing more and more.

"Prepare for battle! Prepare for battle!"

Zhao Mengqi was startled and shouted loudly.

The deterrent power of the heavily armored soldier was too strong for him not to be frightened.

After hearing Zhao Mengqi's order, the defenders also came to their senses and immediately began to organize their armaments.

It's just that the four bed crossbows that were left were too bulky and too late to be transferred too far, and they were all destroyed by the explosion and were no longer usable.

Everyone could only raise their bows and crossbows one after another, aiming at the surviving iron guards, but because there were no heavy armor-piercing arrows, they did not shoot easily.

Just now, not long after Liu Xiuli lay down, he felt the sky collapse and the earth cracked, and then he was paralyzed by the explosion wave, and he almost couldn't breathe.

After waiting for a long time to recover, he silently examined and found that he was not physically injured, so he struggled to stand up.

After shaking off the dust on his body, he opened his eyes and saw that the scene in his eyes made him terrified, "Get up! Get up quickly!"

The spray just now was indeed powerful, and it looked devastating, but because the Iron Guards were heavily armored and the formation was tight, dozens of people in front absorbed all the spray fragments, and the people behind were only injured by the shock wave.

And the dozens of people around Liu Xiuli even lay down in time and escaped the catastrophe, but they were still a little dizzy.

Hearing Liu Xiuli's drinking order, he subconsciously stood up without being injured.

After a little counting, he found that there were still forty or fifty people, Liu Xiuli felt a little relieved and began to observe the surroundings.

At this time, he realized that his other subordinates were fleeing, knowing that this siege was a failure, although he was extremely unwilling, he could only prepare to evacuate.

After all, I don't know if there are any sharp weapons in the city just now, and even if they don't, there are also powerful crossbow bed crossbows and other very threatening weapons.

As for some people who were pressed and couldn't get up, and who were injured and kept moaning, he gave them all up categorically, and didn't want to rescue them at all.

"Let's go! Let's withdraw!"

More than forty iron guards surrounded Liu Xiuli and stumbled down the slope.

When Zhao Mengqi saw this, he immediately ordered, "They want to run, launch, launch!"

More than a hundred crossbow arrows flew out, covering the group of iron guards, and after a clanging sound, not a single person fell, and there was a circle full of arrows hanging around the periphery, but nothing seemed to have happened.

Fuck it, it's an iron turtle!

Zhao Mengqi was stunned for a moment, and when he saw this group of people continuing to retreat, he couldn't help but be anxious, "Want to run!?" It's not that easy! Leave them with me!"

With that, he jumped out of the gap and chased down the slope.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Chen Xiaokun shouted, wanting to dissuade King Yan, but Zhao Mengqi had no intention of turning back, and Wu Qiong Geng and Chang Geng and Ban Zhi had already followed closely, so they had no choice but to stomp their feet, "Fenghua Army, let me keep up with anyone who can still move, and protect Your Highness!"

Even if there were only more than forty heavily armored soldiers left on the other side, it was not easy to deal with, and since King Yan was determined to keep them, he had no choice but to go all out.

Someone in the Iron Guard heard the movement behind him, and he was frightened, "General! The defenders are coming!"

Liu Xiuli suddenly looked back, and couldn't help but be angry, damn it, Lao Tzu let you go, and you kicked your nose in the face.

"Formation! Since they don't know each other, kill them all!"

Liu Xiuli was aroused to the fierceness in his heart, and decided to fight back, just to guard against the bed crossbow, and continued to stay away from the city wall, forming a formation as he walked.

There were too many corpses and other obstacles on the slope, and the speed of Zhao Mengqi and the others coming down was slowed down a lot, and by the time they caught up with the iron guard, they were already more than a hundred feet away from the city wall.

The more than 40 people of the iron guards formed a tight circle, holding shields and holding sharp, and everyone's eyes flashed with the ferocity of the trapped beast, waiting for the defenders to attack.

Zhao Mengqi didn't hold it too big, stopped five zhang away, and began to sort out the formation.

There were more than 150 people on his side, and he still had an advantage in numbers, but if he surrounded it, it would be thin, so he made a phalanx.

Not long after, one side on the field was round, the two armies confronted each other, and a decisive battle was about to break out.
