Chapter Ninety-Five: The City Breaks

The ignited earth bomb drew a graceful arc in the air, and landed accurately and safely on the head of Xuchang City.

The earth bomb exploded instantly, and the debris flying out of it burst out with great kinetic energy, instantly penetrating the throat of a Xuchang soldier, killing him on the spot.

But at this time, the joy of death is the luckiest way to die, these Xuchang soldiers can barely resist some gravel by relying on the armor on their bodies, but unfortunately these gravel are very sharp, depicting the gaps in the armor, can still penetrate into the flesh and skin of people.

The armor of ordinary soldiers is more defensive in front and back, including arms and thighs on both sides, and less defense, so some of the half of their bodies standing sideways are beaten into sieves.

All of a sudden, the entire Xuchang city was full of painful wails.

The general who defended the city of Xuchang hurriedly commanded to make a contingency, and it has to be said that the Xuchang army still has a strong man, as long as the command is appropriate, it can still achieve some reasonable and effective countermeasures.

For example, quickly raising a shield and hiding behind a cover, if there is really no cover, you can hide on the spot behind the corpse of a dead soldier, although it is not ethical, but it is very effective.

The pebble bomb is only a physical blow at best, but the next manure bomb is a double blow of physical and psychological damage.

The oil bomb flew over and exploded on the city wall, and the hot oil inside was heated to an extremely high temperature at the moment of the explosion of the gunpowder.

The skin of the soldiers of the Xuchang Army who was hit by the fecal oil was instantly burned and blistered, lying on the ground and wailing in pain, and another bomb flew over and fell into the arms of a certain soldier, blowing the soldier apart and covering the sky with flesh and blood.

King Zhao has money, so the amount of gunpowder and gravel and dung oil that Su Chen wants is also large, and he desperately throws it at the city wall as if he doesn't want money, and after a while, the city wall is hiding from all the people who should be hiding, and there is not even a soldier who can release arrows.

"The explosives pack is ready to blow the gates open for General Ben! Crossbowmen are always adaptable! ”

"Yes!"

As soon as Su Chen gave the order, several carriages carrying more than a dozen strong men and sack-sized explosive bags rushed over.

The city guard at the head of Xuchang City, his right ear has been blown up by dung oil explosives, and his entire ear has been burned, and it can be seen that several very large blisters have quickly developed to the naked eye, but he can't care about these.

Seeing Zhao Jun's carriage rushing towards the city gate in a hurry, after seeing bags of explosives on the carriage, he knew that something was wrong, they were going to blow up the city gate!

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows! Roll the wood and stones and throw them down for me, hurry up! ”

He shouted loudly, but there were few soldiers who responded to him, nothing else, those soldiers were already scared by the bombing, and at the moment they just wanted to hide behind the bunker, crying and calling for their mother.

A few sparse arrows fell, still hitting some of the soldiers of the Zhao army, Su Chen waved his hand, and the already good crossbowman immediately shot towards the head of the city wall!

The rain of swords covered the sky like locusts in a large area of fertile farmland.

The rain of arrows fell, and the remaining few soldiers of the Xuchang Army who could barely fight back were also inserted into hedgehogs.

Even the city guard was stabbed in the head with an arrow and killed instantly.

The carriage rushed to the city gate at a very fast speed, the soldiers of the Xuchang army on the head of the city still had the strength to counterattack, from time to time a few big stones and rolling logs fell, the soldiers who hit the ground died violently, and the soldiers behind then picked up the explosives and rushed to the Xuchang army gate.

The soldiers piled up explosives at the gates of the city and then took refuge along the foot of the city walls, dodging and rolling logs.

The soldiers driving the wagon, though small in stature, were swift and agile, dodging falling rocks and rolling logs, and a sliding shovel came to the pile of explosives that looked like a hill, and the fuse of one of the explosive packets was taken out of the pile and ignited.

The soldier quickly withdrew, and there was a loud bang, and even the city wall of Xuchang shook violently.

The city gate of this thousand-year-old Central Plains town suddenly exploded a big hole, and with a gentle breeze, the huge city gate, crumbling, fell heavily on the ground and lifted a cloud of dust and smoke.

Su Chen raised the red alchemy spear in his hand and pointed directly at the gate of Xuchang City.

"Soldiers! The city gate has been broken, and the glory and wealth are in front of you, everyone rush! ”

Su Chen took the lead and instantly ignited the murderous aura of the soldiers of the Zhao army, and these soldiers howled like vicious wolf cubs, and followed General Su Chen into Xuchang City.

Behind the gate of Xuchang, there was still the Xuchang army ready to fight, and Su Chen rushed into the crowd with a horse, like a tiger entering a wolf pack, and everywhere he passed, he wailed in pain.

Wherever the alchemy spear waved, all heads flew into the sky, and flesh and blood flew everywhere!

Some soldiers still fell to the ground with a breath in their breath, and they were trampled under the horse's hooves by the cavalry behind, and the bowl-sized horses' hooves instantly crushed their limbs and torsos, and blood flowed like rivers.

The gate of Xuchang is like a purgatory on earth.

Xuchang Palace, Xuchang King sat in his study, the people of Xuchang Wangfu had already begun to flee for their lives, those who should take their luggage took their luggage, and they should take the things before they took the things before.

The door of the study was open, and a few people wanted to go in and take away the ancient characters and paintings that the prince treasured, but when they came in, they saw that the prince was here, and they had to retreat.

"Wait a minute!"

King Xuchang stopped their subordinates with words, and the subordinates were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, but King Xuchang said with a sad face.

"Take away all these valuable things in my study, except for this chair, this king will sit!"

Subordinates, you look at me, I look at you, no one dared to do it for a while, and finally someone couldn't help the temptation, bolder, stepped forward tentatively to accept the calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, and then retreated lightly.

The others saw that this person had not suffered any punishment, and the prince was not angry, and the desires of these people were immediately ignited, you take the vase, I take the calligraphy and painting, he took the antiques, I want to play, almost a moment of effort, and the original luxurious study was ransacked.

really left the yellow rosewood chair that the prince liked, and the whole study can be said to be four walls.

King Xuchang sat on a chair, looking at the smoke outside the city, the shouts of killing that were getting closer and closer, and the panicked looks of the people below, he couldn't figure it out.

How so? In the past, I always felt that I was the king of the Central Plains, and dealing with King Zhao was just condescending, waving his army to the south, and I could take off King Zhao's head in a moment, but now I lost three times in a row.

The 200,000 army was swallowed by Su Chen with his mouth open, and there were less than 100,000 military horses left in Xuchang City, and none of them were elite soldiers.

When the city gate was broken, Xuchang lost his biggest reliance, and he never imagined that there was something better in the world than a battering ram, that is, explosives.
