Chapter 738 Tuyuhun hozen has never seen a bomb siege!
When Li Xuan led his 10,000 Yanzedao army to Lucheng in Tuyuhun, Li Chengqian, Cheng Zhijie, Li Ji, Li Daliang and other large armies also entered Tuyuhun territory one after another.
Facing the Tang army who were in full steel armor, armed with firearms, horses, arrows and bombs, the Tuyuhun soldiers were caught off guard and wanted to fight back in panic, but they found in despair that they could not get in front of these Tang soldiers. .
These soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were armed with steel shields and long horse spears. When they came close, they would be stabbed with holes!
As for standing on the city wall and attacking with arrows!
However, they didn't know that at this time, the weather had begun to get colder, especially in the great north like Tuyuhun.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty each wore a sweater and woolen trousers, with a suit of steel armor on top.
Immediately, as a round of arrows rained down, something that stunned all the soldiers in Tuyuhun appeared in front of them. Their arrows missed the Tang army, which was covered with steel armor, and could only make a clanging sound, and then They all fell to the ground.

After a wave of arrows missed, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the front row raised their shields high and turned around to look around.
But to their surprise, they found that none of them were injured or killed.
"Hahaha, with this steel armor and such a warm sweater, we can spend the whole winter here in Tuyuhun and kill all these hozens one by one!"
All the soldiers and generals of the Tang Dynasty laughed loudly.
After this wave, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were also full of confidence!
"Captain Shi, when will we attack the city?"
"With this steel armor, even if I slowly walk over and climb up the city wall, these Tuyuhun hozens can't even think of missing an arrow from my body!"
"When to attack the city, we need to wait for the order from the general manager. Don't make any noise. Beware of Tuyuhun's sharpshooters!"
Upon hearing this, a school captain with a fierce face turned to the soldiers and shouted loudly.
"Don't worry, Lieutenant Shi. We have all dealt with these Tuyuhun hozens several times. If these Tuyuhun hozens let out a stinky fart, we all know what they are going to do!"
"Hahaha……"
All the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were full of laughter.
Seeing this, Colonel Shi next to him also had a slight sneer on his lips and did not give any more orders.
What these soldiers said was right. They, the frontier armies of the Tang Dynasty, knew the Tuyuhun hozens very well. Although every veteran had a nonchalant look on his face, secretly, he still remained cautious and guarded against the appearance of the Tuyuhun hozens on the opposite side. shooter.
Of course, Lieutenant Shi was also full of enthusiasm at this moment, eager to lead his troops to rush forward, kill all these Tuyuhun hozens, and use their heads to claim the merit!
Behind him, Li Xuan now basically understood the path of these Tuyuhun hozens.
Therefore, after glancing around, I came straight down.
"Order the front army to leave a group of shield soldiers and the rest of the soldiers to disperse!"
"Yes, Controller!"
The messenger beside him quickly conveyed the order.
After the messengers left, the deputy general Gao Zhengsheng beside him had a puzzled look on his face.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, since all our troops are wearing steel armor, why don't we all attack them and capture the city of Tuyuhun directly?"
"General Gao, don't be anxious!"
Li Xuan chuckled lightly, with a look of disdain on his face: "This Tuyuhun area is just an earthen wall, why waste the lives of my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty?"
Hearing this, Gao Zhengsheng still looked puzzled.
Li Xuan said again: "These Tuyuhun hozens have only seen us and other soldiers of the Tang Dynasty use bombs to defend the city, but they have never seen bombs attack the city!
How dare the whole army press on the city wall like this, you really look down on the power of my Tang Dynasty bombs!"
"Bomb siege?"
Gao Zhengsheng was a little confused.
He really hasn’t seen much about bombs, let alone using bombs to attack a city!
Li Xuan did not answer, but directly said to Xue Rengui on the side: "Ren Gui, go and prepare fifty bombs for me to clean up all the hozens on the city wall!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xue Rengui responded and walked back.
This time, Li Xuan was the general manager of the Yanze Road March, Lizhou Governor Gao Zengsheng and Thunder Army Zhonglang Xue Rengui were deputy generals. At the same time, the Thunder Army Gun Battalion led by Xue Rengui had two thousand soldiers, and one thousand soldiers were also divided into Yanze Road.
Taoist general.
The remaining five thousand Thunder Army soldiers were divided into the remaining five armies.
Li Chongyi followed Li Xiaogong to the Xihai Road army, and Cheng Chusi followed Cheng Zhijie to the Chishui Road army.
"The general manager has given an order, leaving only one group of shield soldiers in the front army, and the rest of the soldiers dispersed to both sides!"
"The manager has an order..."
As the ordering soldiers shouted, the front was full of expectations. The general manager gave an order, and all the troops rushed up to kill them. The soldiers who rushed up to the wall of Tuyuhun were all stunned.
However, military orders come to the mountain!
A group of soldiers quickly and orderly dispersed to both sides.
Only a group of shield soldiers were left, holding a steel shield as high as a person, standing guard in front of the army.
Then, with all the soldiers looking puzzled, the rear army slowly walked up pushing twenty catapults.
To the left and right of the catapult, there was also a group of musketry battalion soldiers who came from Chang'an with the general manager!
"Does the general manager want to use a catapult to attack Tuyuhun first?"
"It's just that our army doesn't seem to have prepared boulders or fuel!"
"What is the manager trying to do?"
All the soldiers were full of doubts.
Similarly, on the Tuyuhun city wall, seeing that the Tang army did not attack, but launched twenty catapults first, all the Tuyuhun soldiers and generals on Lucheng looked confused.
"The Tang Dynasty wants to use catapults?"
"Come here, prepare your shield quickly!"
"All soldiers, please quickly avoid the boulder attack!"
The faces of all the Tuyuhun generals changed drastically and they shouted quickly.
at the same time.
After seeing the catapult in place, Li Xuan ordered again.
"With the city gate as the center, twenty bombs on each side on the left and right, and ten bombs on the city gate!"
"yes!"
Xue Rengui responded with a solemn face and passed on the order in an orderly manner.
Although the soldiers of the musket battalion are mainly good at musketry, they are also very skilled in throwing bombs from catapults.
Soon, following Xue Rengui's order, a group of musketry battalion soldiers quickly lit the fuses of twenty bombs, and then threw them towards the Tuyuhun city ahead.
As the blue smoke floated in the air, I watched the bomb smoothly hit the crowd on the wall of Lucheng, or fall under the city wall of Lucheng.
Gao Zhengsheng suddenly seemed to remember something, his face was full of excitement, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he stared at the wall of Lucheng.
Gao Zhengsheng was not disappointed, after a breath.
"Boom..."
"Rumble..."
With loud noises, bursts of fire broke out on the entire Lucheng wall.
