Chapter 598 Buying Time

The private troops all withdrew.

When firing, it is impossible to hit them.

Below is an endless field of galloping prairie men and Jingyang soldiers, who were shot down with several cannons.

They must have been the ones hit.

Surrendered and fleeing private troops were also mixed in below.

Of course, Trillion He didn't treat them as human beings.

Decisive artillery bombardment.

No one dissuaded him, and no one could dissuade him.

He also didn't worry about the consequences he might face after firing.

Trillion He also made his second mistake.

The time he put down the jack and fired the gun were both a little too early.

A large number of artillery and ammunition were brought to attack Zhoushan.

The gunpowder and cannonballs left on the city gate are lacking in quantity.

In addition, although there is no shortage of artillerymen on the city wall, there are far from enough manpower to defend the opponent's siege.

As a result, he chose to fire, which also forced the enemy to attack the city faster.

boom--!

boom--!

boom--!

The cannons on the city gate fired a salvo.

Countless cannonballs fell into the middle of the Jingyang cavalry and the prairie cavalry, and the scene of men and horses flying was reappeared.

Upon seeing this, Trillions immediately ordered those below to continue loading cannonballs.

Keep firing artillery.

The muskets on the city wall also fired at the same time.

The northern soldiers and prairie people below the city suffered large casualties.

The screams of soldiers and the neighing of horses.

resounded together.

Judging from the current situation, it is not cost-effective for the attacker to retreat.

As soon as they retreated, they just gave Trillion Dollars a chance to beat the drowned dog.

Zhao Xiaole saw from a distance that the defense on Wanjiaji's city wall was very weak, so he took the opportunity to attack and there was a high probability of capturing the city.

He immediately conveyed the signal to the soldiers in front to attack the city.

No need for him to tell.

The cavalry below the city took the initiative to attack the city.

Fighting is very similar to fighting.

When the two sides fought together and entangled each other, no one forcibly dissuaded them, or one party took the initiative to give in.

It's difficult to separate.

How can the cavalry retreat under the city?

They crowded under the city, ran far away, and would enter the range of the artillery. If they stood still, they would be attacked by a wave of artillery every twenty seconds or so.

They have no other choice but to resist.

The most difficult thing for them is that they cannot choose.

The biggest advantage is that there are many of them.

Too many.

They are so densely packed that they are almost endless.

The people who felt the deepest feelings were naturally Wanyi He on the city wall and the defenders who stayed with him on the city wall.

They also saw a magnificent scene that they had never seen before in their lives.

Watch it closely and see how thousands of arrows are fired!

Below the city head, the desperate cavalrymen who were forced to surrender took out their crossbows, bent their bows and nocked arrows, and shot towards the city head.

Muskets and artillery require attack intervals.

Skilled archers rarely have this concern.

After their first arrow was shot, the second arrow was shot while the arrow was flying.

One person, two people, three people...

More and more people raised their crossbows and shot arrows towards the city.

They have no choice.

If the musketeers and artillerymen on top of the city are not shot to death, they will be the ones who die.

Trillion He didn’t expect it either.

Their choice of firing would usher in such a strong counterattack from the enemy.

Countless arrows rained down on the city.

Densely packed and endless.

From a few waves in the beginning, a small piece, it became more and more, so much that it covered the sky and the sun.

After the cavalry in front fired a hail of arrows, the defenders on top of the city didn't even have a chance to show their heads, and few could escape the hail of arrows.

An unknown number of musketeers and artillerymen died.

Under the rain of arrows, many people were turned into hedgehogs by the arrows without even having a chance to grunt.

Forget about artillery and muskets.

There is no chance or time for reloading.

Trillions and other generals, had they not worn heavy armor in advance, they would have died here.

Without hesitation, he gave up the defense of the city and escaped from the city wall immediately under the protection of the shield of his own soldiers.

The rain of arrows continues below.

The cavalry from behind came one after another.

They also shot all the arrows they had.

When they fired all the arrows, the city of Wanjiaji had become unrecognizable, like a big hedgehog curled up on the beach.

The cavalry had no siege tools. After they finished shooting their arrows, they had no other way to get on top of the city, and they had no way to break open the Qianjinding and the city gate.

Without the follow-up infantry, they seemed to have no other choice but to stare blankly.

After all the arrows have been shot.

The city was silent for a long time.

No muskets, no cannon, nothing.

No defenders came out.

Naturally, the cavalry cannot stay under the city. They have no arrows. Once the opponent sends out musketeers, they will only be killed.

They dispersed on their own initiative.

Leave the rest of the road to siege ladders and logs.

Among the items scattered on the ground, there were also siege ladders and ramming logs. Most of them could not be found, or were buried by corpses. Some of them were blocked by corpses. The corpses had to be cleared first before the rush car could pass by.

Fortunately, the Jingyang infantry were not slow either. They rushed out quickly, carrying brand-new ladders one by one.

They all set up under the city gate, preparing to climb over and attack the city.

There were no cannons or muskets fired from the city wall, and no arrows or rolling logs fell down, indicating that it was an empty city.

What does empty city mean?

Everything was open to them to loot.

Wanjiaji's wealth is well known.

I wonder how many beauties have been raised in the city and how much wealth has been accumulated?

The soldiers became jealous just thinking about it.

After entering the city, dig out a Wanjia floor tile, maybe it is made of gold, and put it into someone's arms without anyone noticing.

Enough for a lifetime of freedom.

And those women are available for them to humiliate at will.

The soldiers' eyes were red.

"Quick!"

"Hurry up!"

"..."

Below the city, everyone kept urging the soldiers setting up the ladder to hurry up.

It's too long.

The Wan family must have fled with their wealth.

Everyone knows that Wanjiaji is backed by a port.

Trillion He also needs time to take away his wealth.

Everyone was very anxious.

Siege has also become a race against time.

Bang bang bang.

A brand new or blood-stained ladder was set up, and the soldiers were preparing to climb the ladder with excitement and passion.

Suddenly there was a faint cry from the city wall.

The crying became louder and louder.

More and more.

No one knows what's going on?

Everyone was stunned.

The soldiers who were about to climb the ladder were also stunned.

They raised their heads blankly and looked towards the city wall.

The crying kept coming, and gradually, the sound became so loud that it seemed as if it was ringing in their ears.

Finally, they saw it.

On the city wall, crowds of people crowded out.

More and more.

There were men and women, old and young. They crowded, cried, and were driven to the top of the city.

There were so many of them that the crowds were so crowded that the entire city wall was filled with people.

It also completely blocked the way for soldiers to attack the city.

At that moment, everyone understood.

In order to transfer wealth, Trillions intends to buy time with the lives of ordinary people.
