In fact, Li Jing made a lot of preparations. If artillery could not capture Fuqi City, then he would use other methods to capture Fuqi City.
But now, it's no longer necessary.
When he saw the sparks exploding on Fuqi City and the shattered and flying stones, he knew that Fuqi City was already within his grasp. The darker the sky, the brighter the explosion sparks, as if they did not belong to this era.
From this moment on, the devil officially announced that he was born.
Luo Shixin and Cheng Mingzhen were already stunned. They looked at the sparks exploding in front of them in astonishment, completely losing their ability to think.
Sky fire?
"Heavenly thunder!" Murong Shun and others who were monitored by Wang Xuance in the rear camp looked at the exploding Fuqi City and exclaimed "Heavenly Thunder."
Wang Xuance himself also looked like he had seen a ghost.
What a thunder?
After one round of artillery fire ended, the craftsmen immediately started loading the second round, and at the same time changed the direction to face the city wall where the gap had been blasted.
"put!"
Boom!
The five doors rang in unison, and a violent explosion resounded through Fuqi City again.
At this time, the soldiers in Fuqi City were in chaos. Fuqi City was shaken by the earth and the mountains were shaken. The sparks of the explosion made them completely lose their will to resist and they just ran away like crazy.
"Thunder!"
"The gods are angry, run!"
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty summoned the Thunder God to destroy the city. We are no match. Run quickly!"
stop!
boom!
The shells fell and no grass grew. All the buildings were blown to pieces, and rocks flew in the sky and scattered everywhere. The Tuyuhun soldiers no longer dared to defend the city. The shaking under their feet and the power of the explosion made them frightened.
This is not the escape of one person, but the escape of a group of people. This is not the escape of a thousand people, but the rout of tens of thousands of people.
boom!
Wow!
Another cannonball fell, blasting a gap in the city wall. The unweighted city wall collapsed, crushing a group of people to death.
"ah!"
"Run!"
The artillery that has been improved several times can now fire eleven rounds, and one round of five artillery fires will produce fifty-five rounds.
How could the current wall-building technology withstand fifty-five artillery bombings?
Not to mention, its terrifying power is frightening.
In Fuqi City, Fu Yun was awakened as early as when the first artillery shell exploded. When he saw with his own eyes the sparks exploding on the city wall, the billowing smoke, and the collapsing city wall, he completely lost all hope of resistance.
.
The Tang army summoned thunder to help them fight, how could they win the battle?
After the round of shells was fired, there was no more silence, and the panic sound coming from Fuqi City was very clear.
Seeing the craftsmen pouring cold water on the barrel, Luo Shixin and others came to their senses belatedly.
"Mr. Wei, what on earth is this?" Luo Shixin seemed to have forgotten the name of the artillery that Li Jing had just told him.
Li Jing said coldly: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't explore what you shouldn't explore."
Luo Shixin swallowed his saliva and did not dare to speak anymore. Because this thing was so terrifying. They actually mastered the sky thunder. What on earth is going on?
Or did His Majesty the Emperor really summon the God of Thunder to help?
Thinking of this, Luo Shixin did not dare to speak anymore, silently shut up, and quietly watched the craftsmen pouring the barrel.
After the first round of artillery fire, about half an hour later, the second round of artillery fire followed. This time the attack was more fierce. Every time there was a boom and explosion, the city wall collapsed.
In two hours, three rounds of artillery fire ended, and Li Jing ordered to attack the city!
Seeing the large army marching toward Fuqi City, Li Jing walked up to the craftsmen and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
One of the craftsmen shook his head with a smile and said: "In this experiment, we obtained a lot of useful things. After we protect the cannon, I hope Duke Wei will allow me to take three people to see what Fuqi City looks like. In this way, I will
So that I can write a memorial to His Majesty."
"It should be." Li Jing nodded and said: "If you need help, just ask, and I will arrange personal guards to help you. In addition, you can rest assured about the safety of the artillery. Your Majesty has arranged special personnel to protect you in the camp, and they will perform their duties."
"Um."
This battle was quite easy, and before dawn, Fu Yun simply surrendered.
Amidst the terrible roar of artillery fire, Fu Yun had already completely lost his will to resist. He just wanted to surrender as soon as possible, hoping that Emperor Tang could spare his life.
At dawn, all the generals who entered the city saw clearly what Fuqi City looked like.
The so-called city wall no longer exists, everywhere seems to be struck by thunder, and the huge gaps seem to narrate the great terror that fell last night. The gate tower, the hardest part of the city wall, has completely disappeared, leaving only the remaining bricks and tiles.
The smell of charred blackness filled the air, and broken arms and limbs could be seen everywhere.
In many places, black smoke is still rising from the birds, and from time to time you can hear the sound of city towers collapsing. Everything you see is scorched earth. The human figures gathered are all ants. They are either holding their heads and shaking and crying, or they are corpses.
Horizontal Chen.
Those wooden houses were burning with raging flames, and the entire Fuqi City lost its peace overnight and turned into a hell on earth.
Just one night!
Luo Shixin looked at the ruins of Fuqi City, and he had long lost the joy he felt when the city was destroyed.
"A fortified city is no longer a fortified city."
He seemed to understand the meaning of this sentence. With this kind of equipment in hand, no city would be easy to defend, difficult to attack, and indestructible.
Fire attacks floods, let alone being compared with it.
"drive!"
Li Jing came on horseback, looked at the destroyed city wall up close, shook his head and sighed.
"With artillery in hand, there is no rival for Your Majesty in the world."
Tang Cavalry ranked first in field battles and were invincible in artillery siege battles.
In this case, who else in the world can be the opponent of His Majesty the Emperor?
In the past, siege battles resulted in the greatest loss of soldiers, and sometimes they could not win, which was a waste of time and energy.
But from then on, wherever the Tang army arrived, they encountered enemies and killed them, and saw the city destroyed.
Who can stop it?
No!
Tuyuhun can’t do it, and the future Western Turks can’t do it even more!
Li Jing had a vague hunch in his heart that the birth of artillery was not the end, it seemed like it was just the beginning.
Under the protection of special personnel, those craftsmen came to the ruins and carefully collected various data and recorded them in books.
This is what His Majesty the Emperor asked them to do, and it is also a habit they have retained from countless experiments.
"The power is still lacking." A craftsman said thoughtfully.
After hearing this, Li Jing twitched the corner of his mouth, called on the soldiers to protect the craftsmen, and then led the people into Fuqi City.
The wall of Fuqi City was the most severely damaged, and it was also affected in Fuqi City. Many places were burning with flames. The Tang army had already begun to put out the fire, stabilize Fuqi City, take over Fuqi City, and control Fuqi City.
royal palace.
Fu Yun and his ministers knelt on the ground, surrendered to Li Jing, and presented a letter of surrender.
"...Fan Bang's young minister Fu Yun begs His Majesty the Emperor to forgive the crime of disrespect." Fu Yun finished his surrender speech and knelt on the ground.
The same is true for the ministers behind him.
King Tianzhu lowered his head tightly, fear raging in every part of his body. The thunder from the sky last night made him completely despair, and he no longer dared to take any chances.
He now only hopes that the Tang army can accept their surrender, and he has no objection even if the Tang army is sent to garrison in Tuyuhun.
He was really scared.
Li Jing looked at Fu Yun indifferently. After reading the letter of surrender, he did not humiliate Fu Yun, but ordered someone to imprison him.
In his opinion, the only one who can humiliate Fu Yun is His Majesty the Emperor, and he does not have that ability. Moreover, in order to stabilize Fuqi City in the future, Fu Yun must be used one or two.
