"Lord Wang! The latest information of Yunzhou County! The 100,000 Xiongnu army has arrived in Yunzhou County and surrounded Dingyang City! ”

In the border area of the Western Regions, Zhao Jun, who had just left Ankang City, received the latest information from the secret guards, and after more than half a month, the Xiongnu finally came to Yunzhou County, and surrounded the entire Dingyang City a few days ago, and launched an attack early the next morning.

They captured a lot of captives from the grassland, and used them as cannon fodder to attack Dingyang City, which was already the usual practice of the Huns.

Only this time, it was clear that they had kicked the iron plate and found the wrong opponent.

Different from other cities, the three cities of Yunzhou County already have a basic industrial base, although because of the energy consumption of the steam engine, most of the workshops are in the handicraft workshop stage, but the production mode of the assembly line makes the speed of production of materials in these three cities of Yunzhou County is terrifying.

Before the Xiongnu besieged the city, Yunzhou City sent them millions of arrows and crossbow arrows with the number of 10,000 people.

And now they produce their own arrows, and they can produce at least 50,000 arrows every day, at least until the raw materials are exhausted, and there will be no shortage of arrows and various military supplies in Jeongyang City.

So when the Huns began to attack the city, they were dumbfounded when they were faced with a dense rain of arrows that were pouring down desperately as if they didn't want money.

The overwhelming array of arrows was like harvesting wheat, and the captives who would be driven forward by them were quickly harvested.

After a whole day of fighting, one or two thousand prisoners died, but the army did not advance half a step!

As soon as they made a move, they would shoot arrows from the other side of Dingyang City, and now there was not a single open space within a hundred steps of Dingyang City, and all of them were full of arrows.

Even the Huns felt like they had nowhere to put their feet when they saw such a situation.

And those captives who were driven by the Huns to drive the project had to pay attention to their feet while running, and if they were not careful, they were easy to trip directly over the dense arrows on the ground.

And if you trip on the battlefield, it means that your life has come to an end.

Originally, it was only attacked head-on, but the next moment it was pierced into a hedgehog by arrows falling from the sky!

At the end of the day, the Xiongnu took advantage of Dingyang City at all.

The whole Jeongyang Castle is impregnable!

When Zhao Jun received the news, he was really relieved.

Although he also has confidence in the defense of the Pontus side, confidence and reality are two different things.

Now that they can block the Huns so easily, they have time to support them, and they don't have to worry about people who have not yet reached home but are gone.

Soon this information spread throughout the army, which Zhao Jun deliberately did to reassure everyone.

Sure enough, when the news spread, the soldiers who had been carrying a sense of urgency on their faces for the past few days instantly relaxed a lot.

Of course, Dingyang City is defended and defended, they still have to hurry back, what is not lacking in this world is accidents, if it is delayed because of this matter, it is beyond regret!

The speed of the Yunzhou coalition army was much faster, and Zhao Jun took the lead in rushing to the front.

And at this time, Dingyang City, Tira looked at Dingyang City in front of her, but she made a difficulty!

What's going on here?

Originally, in his opinion, they had 100,000 Huns, and even if they would suffer some losses, they should be able to quickly defeat this Dingyang city, and they had been like this in the Great Song Dynasty in the past.

But since he started the siege yesterday, he has found that this Dingyang City is really rich!

It's really rich, it's not fake rich!

Look at the ground in front of you, there are arrows stuck in the ground everywhere under the black pressure.

So much so that the Huns didn't even dare to drive the horses to get better, and when the time came, the horse's legs would have to be completely wasted if they walked around inside!

In the past two days, Tila has not ordered the captives to attack, and they are even working as overseers in the back, and once someone retreats, they will be killed on the spot to set an example!

But the effect was not very good, but after using a large number of people to rush to the thousands, the three artillery pieces at the head of the city opened fire!

With a roar, one explosive bomb after another was fired out and fell into the crowd below, first the roar of the explosion shook the ears of everyone around.

Immediately followed by the shock wave generated by the explosion of the shell, all the people standing in a radius of more than ten meters around the shell rushed out, and all the internal organs were shattered by the shock wave, and finally the fire was swallowed up after the explosion!

Dozens of people were killed on the spot, and not even a single intact corpse could be left.

This terrifying weapon instantly frightened the captives and the Huns.

Just fifty steps closer, this time Qi Qi retreated and retreated.

This is not the end, the range of the Burning Cloud II is a full 300 paces, and now it is installed on the head of the city to attack by projectile, and the range has reached a distance of 400 steps.

So, after repelling this wave of attacks, the defenders of Dingyang City gave the Huns a big surprise!

The three guns were calibrated and aimed at the location of the Tira Banner, which thought it was safe two hundred paces away.

I only heard a roar, three shells fired in a salvo, at first the Huns were a little strange, they all withdrew from the battlefield, why did they still fire that kind of terrifying weapon on the opposite side?

But when they saw that the three cannonballs that were gradually approaching were getting closer and closer to them, everyone suddenly realized that a hundred steps together was not the limit of this weapon, he could hit them stationed here!

What's even more terrifying is that these three shells are actually aimed at Da Danyu!

Tila looked up and saw this scene, her pupils suddenly shrank, and then she didn't wait for others to say more, she just abandoned her horse and ran backwards.

Other people are not stupid, they naturally have to run when Da Dan Yu runs, but this causes crowding, and many people can't even run.

There was nothing to say about Tira's side, because of his fast running and decisiveness, he killed everything that stood in front of him, and soon ran out more than thirty paces away.

And it was at this moment that three shells finally fell!

Thundered!

The flames soared, and the already crowded crowd became even more crowded, and they were blown into a pile of broken corpses!

Before the screams could be made, they directly became stumps and severed arms.

Looking at this scene, Tira's lips kept trembling, and he was afraid for a while, but fortunately he ran fast!

The flames gradually dissipated, the smoke and dust that filled the air gradually receded, and the scene of the bombardment was revealed in front of everyone.

The scorched black earth, a burnt smell permeated, and then there was a smell of barbecue, that is, the corpse was fried by gunpowder!

It can be clearly seen that this large crater with a radius of five or six meters is about a foot shorter than the surrounding ground!

Even the dirt underneath has been turned out!

"Retreat! Withdraw! Get out of here! ”

Seeing the scene at the center of the explosion clearly, Tira no longer dared to take any chances, and immediately ordered the rear of the army loudly, and he himself kept retreating under the protection of his own guards, and was always vigilant if the opposite side would suddenly fire up a few more cannons, but it was clear that Dingyang City did not have such thoughts.

In this way, the Huns directly retreated to about five hundred steps, and only then did they stop at the bottom of their hearts.
