Chapter 647: Exploding Town South Pass (Part 1)

Xi Changzhen looked at the densely packed army outside the city with a solemn expression.

The solemn look in his eyes remained for a long time.

Li Zhen brought a series of cannons. Once they were all fired, the Zhennanguan Pass he was guarding would not be able to withstand the bombardment of the cannons even if it was a fortress. Xi Changzhen felt heavy and ordered: "Old Chen , immediately sent soldiers to Jinji Mountain to deliver the order, ordering the forts on the mountain to aim and fire in the direction of Li Zhen, and be sure to repel Li Zhen."

"yes."

Chen Zhengshi called a soldier and ordered the soldiers to go to Jinji Mountain to deliver the order. Jinji Mountain is a mountain mausoleum close to Zhennanguan. There are many forts placed on the mountain, which can be used for defense.

Outside the city tower, Li Zhen's army had already assembled.

All the soldiers gathered together, and the eighteen cannons they brought have been installed. As long as Li Zhen gives an order, the eighteen cannons can launch the most violent attack. Li Zhen thought about it carefully and ordered: "Shout immediately and order Xi Changzhen to open the city gate of Zhennanguan and surrender, otherwise I will launch an attack."

The order was passed on, and a soldier rushed out and shouted towards Zhennanguan: "Xi Changzhen, the commander-in-chief orders you to surrender immediately, otherwise the army will knock on the pass and Zhennanguan will be razed to the ground."

"Hahaha……"

Xi Changzhen said loudly: "I am stationed at Zhennanguan. Not to mention Li Zhen, even if the King of Heaven comes, I have to go back. Tell Li Zhen, let him just fire the cannons. I will take them one by one."

The soldier conveyed the news, and Li Zhen's expression suddenly darkened.

I don’t know how to praise.

Li Zhen suffered a loss at the hands of Xi Changzhen. He thought that the other party was a capable person, so he had the idea of ​​​​loving talents and wanted to take Xi Changzhen for his own use. Unfortunately, this guy's bones were too hard. Li Zhen looked at the fort standing The surrounding soldiers gave the order: "Aim at the buildings on the city tower, destroy the houses on the city tower first, and attack step by step."

The gunner received Li Zhen's order and aimed at the tower of Zhennanguan. The soldier who directed the gunner to fire saw that everyone was ready and shouted: "Light the fire."

In an instant, the fuses of the cannon were ignited by sticks of fire.

"Bah, bah,."

The fire snake burned, and it burned up in the blink of an eye.

"boom,."

After the first cannon shot, the sound of cannon fire came one after another. The deafening sound made Li Zhendu take three steps back and plug his ears. In the sky, one shell after another whizzed past. The dark, round cannonball drew a vague parabola in the air and reached the top of Zhennan Pass in the blink of an eye.

"The shells are coming, hide quickly."

Xi Changzhen crouched down to hide, and a moment later, the first shell fell.

"boom,."

There was a loud noise, and the deafening sound stung people's eardrums, and made the towers of Zhennanguan tremble, as if the earth was shaking. Where the shell exploded, the soldiers who were hit were bloody and fell. There was no breath left on the ground, and the soldiers who exploded around the shells were all knocked unconscious by the explosion.

This was only the first bomb, and seventeen more bombs fell one after another.

"Boom, boom, boom,,."

On the tower, the sound of explosions came one after another, and it felt like the ground was shaking, as if the entire tower was about to collapse, especially the ear-piercing explosions, the splashing gravel, and the screams of some of the soldiers who were bombed. The sound lingered in Xi Changzhen's ears, and his heart fluctuated accordingly, making him very uneasy.

Xi Changzhen squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, as if he were a criminal.

He lowered his head, tilted his head, squinted at Chen Zheng who was hiding next to him, and said loudly: "Old Chen, you damn sent soldiers to Jinji Mountain to give orders, why hasn't there been any response from above?"

Chen Zhengshi rolled his eyes and said, "Sir, soldiers have no wings and cannot fly. Let's hold on a little longer."

Both of them had bitter expressions on their faces, and they were very depressed.

The soldiers on the city tower were too far away from the army outside the city. If they shot or shot with bows and arrows, it would be difficult to hurt each other. However, there were no cannons on the city tower, so they would only suffer a loss. Chen Zhengshi and Xi Changzhen both understood this fact and were prepared in their hearts. , but when they actually faced it, the feeling of powerlessness that arose in their hearts made the two of them feel very uncomfortable.

The rumbling sound of shell explosions was still ringing, lingering in my ears.

The towers were filled with sand and rocks, and they were bombarded in a disastrous manner.

Li Zhen looked at the situation on the tower and said hehe: "Okay, okay, this is the effect. To borrow Lu Shaochuan's words, our army in Guangzhou is not short of money. Some are ammunition and some are weapons. This time, let Xi Changzhen see the stubbornness The consequences of resistance, such as fortress levels, I think are bullshit, they are all dregs in the face of absolute strength."

Zhou Xiuying said: "Commander, if we have cannons to suppress the defense on the city tower, I can lead my female soldiers to attack the city gate of Zhennanguan. As long as we break through the gate, everything will be easy."

Li Zhen shook his head and said: "Don't worry, wait a moment, we are going to destroy the buildings on the city tower. Once these buildings collapse, they are likely to fall under the city tower. If you go there, you will suffer an unreasonable disaster. When the city tower is destroyed, It’s not too late to attack the building.”

Zhou Xiuying nodded, her eyes flashing with sharp eyes.

Thinking of sweeping away the results of her failed attempt last time, she had already ordered the soldiers to prepare.

"Aim them all for me, be sure to aim at the houses on the towers and knock them down." The man in charge of directing the gunners to fire the cannons shouted, his hands moving up and down as if in rhythm.

"Boom, boom, boom,."

Cannonballs flew out one after another, and fell in a blinding pattern. This scene made Xi Changzhen on the tower look resentful, and murmured: "Damn it, Li Zhen is so rich, how much money can I buy?" Even the cannons placed on Jinji Mountain were reluctant to be used. He asked the soldiers to fire the cannons as if they were drinking boiled water. He simply didn't care about money. It was a luxury. It was really a luxury."

When Chen Zhengshi heard this, the corners of his mouth kept twitching.

How long has it been since you still cared so much about other people's money?

"Crack, click,..."

Suddenly, there was a sound of broken roof beams from the house on the city tower.

"Crash."

The tiles fell and continued to scatter on the tower. The dense tiles fell on the tower and hit some soldiers. The pain caused the soldiers to scream loudly. Some earthen jars even hit the soldiers' heads, causing blood to flow everywhere. It splashed and hit the soldier until he fainted.

Xi Changzhen hurriedly changed direction to avoid the collapsed house, and so did his soldiers.

However, after the building on the city tower collapsed, they immediately lost a hiding place. Many soldiers actually lost their hiding place and were killed by falling and exploding shells. Xi Changzhen looked helpless and ordered: "Old Chen , you take most of the soldiers down to the tower, and I will observe the situation from above."

"No, how can you stay?" Lao Chen said immediately.

Xi Changzhen said: "This is an order. I am a cat who has nine lives and cannot die."

Seeing that Xi Changzhen had made up his mind, Chen Zheng knew that no more persuasion would be of any use, so he called out to the soldiers on the tower to come down to avoid further bombardment.
