"Hit the gates and blow them open!"

"Order!"

Seeing that this artillery fire was so powerful, even the soldiers under Cao Xu were also stunned. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After three consecutive volleys, the entire tower was shattered, and the defenders above were all scared away.

For a while, the morale of the Wu army was high, and they shouted one after another: "King Wu Shenwei, King Wu Shenwei." Long live King Wu, long live King Wu ....... ”

The shouts outside the city came into the ears, and from Wang Shichong downwards, all of them were bloodless.

"Boom, boom, boom....... ”

There was another thunderclap, and the walls behind him and the ground under their feet all shook.

"It's not good, it's the city gate, the city gate ....... Someone changed his voice in horror and shouted loudly.

When everyone heard this, they looked over, only to see that the iron-clad city gate that had already been locked and reinforced had been knocked out of shape, as if it was about to be broken open in the next moment.

"Quick, go and block the gates ....... The general defending the city reacted and ran over with his soldiers.

But it was too late.

Under the bombardment of artillery, the entire gate of the city was blown open. Whistling shells and fragments of broken door panels flew over.

More than half of the dozens of soldiers immediately fell to the ground.

Outside Luoyang City, Cao Xu nodded with satisfaction after seeing the performance of the bronze artillery.

The wall of Luoyang City in front of me is pervertedly high and pervertedly wide.

With the ten small-caliber bronze cannons in his hand, I am afraid that he will have to bombard for a month before he can blast a hole in the city wall.

However, although this small cannon could not directly collapse the city wall, it could make a sensation.

At this moment, there is not even a single defender on the city wall opposite Cao Xu. No matter how strong a fortification is, if there is no one to defend it, what difference does it make to not have it?

The bronze cannon made its first appearance and exerted more power than anyone could have imagined.

Seeing that the vanguard of the Wu army had begun to build a pontoon bridge over the moat, Cao Xu smiled, and the battle was much smoother than he imagined.

"The gates are opened, and the gates are opened....... The besieging Wu army cheered, and the meritorious deeds were in front of them.

Cao Xu suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "Put on the scattered bomb and push it closer to continue to hit ......." ”

The so-called scattered bombs are nothing more than rubble, iron nails and the like.

When he looked up and saw a figure on the wall, he knew that the defenders had already reacted and tried to defend. He then said, "Divide a few cannons and suppress the city." ”

"Order!"

"Hold on, keep my ....... Wang Shichong's general, Song Mengqiu, had red eyes and shouted loudly.

Then he heard a "boom" sound at the head of the city, and the soldiers around him were all pale and squatting on the ground shivering, some of them were chanting words in their mouths, and some of them were already wet with ...... under their feet.

Song Mengqiu's heart was bitter, and his eyes turned black.

Behind the city gate, a pair of soldiers were arranged in formation, ready to wait for the Wu army to rush in, and start a hand-to-hand fight. The soldiers in the front row raised their shields, hoping to block the enemy's weapons of terror.

It's a pity that what they are waiting for is not the flesh and blood Wu Jun, but something even more terrifying.

The gravel, iron nails and other objects caught in the shotgun turned into a life-harvesting storm under the powerful thrust that erupted after the gunpowder was ignited.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere, corpses were strewn everywhere, and it made no difference whether it was a soldier holding a shield or an officer wearing armor.

The soldiers who formed a battle formation dispersed in a hurry, and fled to the city in an instant. There were many people left who were frightened and stupid, standing in place, their eyes blank and blank .......

"Long live Wu, sons, I'm even more rushing!"

"Long live Wu, kill, kill, kill. "The Wu army began to pour into the city.

After seeing this scene, the people who followed Wang Shichong were dumbfounded. Lang Feng shouted loudly: "Lord Shangshu, go quickly, go quickly!"

Since ancient times, in the battle to defend the city, as long as the city gate is opened, and there is no way to recapture it in time, the only way to end up is defeat.

Wang Shichong let out a long sigh, glanced back, and saw the Wu army pouring in like a tide, waved his hand, and said dejectedly: "Go, where can you go." Go back to your home and wait for King Wu to be executed. ”

In Luoyang City, the defenders in several other directions actually didn't know what was going on.

Only in the distance could I hear one thunderclap after another, followed by screams and cheers that shook the whole city.

Then, Wu Jun killed in front of his own eyes.

Some of the generals felt bad and opened the city gates and fled from the city. Some generals chose to surrender, and of course some chose to resist, but the general trend was gone, and then they were killed by the Wu army.

Outside the city of Luoyang, the mountain shouted long live, and the sound shook the sky.

Wang Shichong and Dugufeng were the leaders, and there were hundreds of civil and military officials who stayed in Luoyang to greet them.

"Sinner Wang Shichong, meet King Wu. ”

"Chen Dugufeng, meet King Wu. ”

"The ministers greet King Wu. ”

Cao Xu got off the horse, helped Wang Shichong and Dugufeng up, and then said, "Everyone, please get up." ”

"King Xie Wu. Everyone said in unison.

Then, the army entered the city.

Wu's well-disciplined and well-trained army gave the residents of the city a different feel. Coupled with the early propaganda of the Luoyang Gang, under the aura of "Mandate of Heaven", the hearts of the people in the city quickly settled down.

Surrounded by soldiers, Cao Xu came to the imperial palace in Luoyang City.

The Imperial Palace is divided into two parts: the Imperial City and the Imperial Palace. The imperial city is enclosed on the east, south and west sides of the palace city, in the shape of "concave", and the north side is separated from the palace city by a city wall. The walls of the imperial city are all sandwich cities, with two city walls. The north side has a triple layer, which increases its defensive capabilities.

There are four horizontal streets in the east and west of the imperial city, and the three straight roads in the north and south are staggered, the central avenue is in the central axis, and the official offices of the province, the government, the temple, and the lieutenant are arranged on both sides of the avenue respectively.

Miyagi was the residence of the emperor and the place where he received his ministers. In the north of the palace city, there are two cities, Yaoyi and Yuanbi, which make the palace city under heavy siege, and the defense is very strict.

At this time, in the palace of Luoyang, there is also an imperial lord.

After Yang Guang's violent death, Yang Tong, the king of Yue who stayed in the eastern capital, was proclaimed emperor and changed to Yuan Huangtai. There are also seven people such as Yuan Wendu, Duan Da, Wang Shichong, Guo Wenyi, Huangfu Wuyi, Lu Chu, Zhao Changwen, etc., known as the "Seven Nobles".

Cao Xu stood at the gate of the palace, took a deep breath, and said, "King Yue moved back to the palace to live, and he can't leave half a step unless he is edicted. ”

The guards next to him should say "yes" and walk towards the palace.

"Where is the ancestral temple community, lead me to worship. Cao Xu said.

As soon as the words fell, Duan Da, who had long wanted to express himself, immediately stood up and said, "In the imperial city, the king invites the old ministers to come." ”

Cao Xu nodded. (To be continued.) )
