Song Hao couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when he saw the whole army below laughing, as if they were mocking himself. In fact, there was indeed some chaos in Jiuquan City last night. Of course, there would be no riots because the whole city was under martial law, but there were all kinds of discussions and rumors.
, it quickly reached Song Hao’s ears. This surprised Song Hao.
Of course, he knew that such ambiguous words were lethal, so he couldn't refute them directly, otherwise he would appear guilty. After much deliberation, Song Hao could only find the gentry and the lizheng elders to patiently explain to them, and
He entrusted them to go back and restrain them, and also specifically told them not to persuade or defend themselves, so they managed to stabilize people's hearts.
But after all, Song Hao, who was upset by this matter, didn't sleep well all night. He tossed and turned, which made Wang feel very distressed, but there was no way. The war was imminent, and Wang couldn't say anything more. When they came together during the day, Song Hao's eyes were red.
, as if he had aged a lot all of a sudden.
I hurriedly put on my clothes and went to the city, only to find that Lu Guang's entire army had arrived this time. It seemed that he was going to take action. I didn't expect that Lu Guang was still playing the trick of shouting. Looking at the formation, there were a lot of soldiers and horses, and there were ladders and so on.
How could Jiuquan City be captured with just this? As for the wooden shelves and the large rocks outside the city, they were automatically ignored by Song Hao.
Xie Batian reminded him of the catapult, but Song Hao shook his head confidently and said: "We also have catapults in Jiuquan, which can be used to attack the city and defend the city. I have seen the catapult. Lu Guang is the best in the thief army.
That thing is too small, even a catapult is not a concern. Unfortunately, the rebel army came too fast and the matter was too urgent. There are not many huge stones in the city. They don't use them, and neither do we. Otherwise, I will use the huge stones as a country to get rid of Lu Guang.
This beast!"
Xie Batian thought it was reasonable and said nothing more. At this time, he pressed the handle of the knife tightly, planning to kill dozens of his thieves today and find a few more slaves in the underworld for Xiao Nuozi. In this way, he
You can also live a better life.
At this time, Lu Guang said confidently: "Song Hao, I will give you another cup of tea in this section. If you surrender in Kaicheng, everything will be over. Otherwise, it is unforeseeable!"
"If you have the ability, just attack the city!" Song Hao only replied and ignored it. Instead, he stepped up his orders and prepared to roll wood and stone. At the same time, he mobilized all the strong laborers to go to the city head and reinforce the city gate. It seemed that,
Jiuquan City is really going to be put to the test today.
Song Hao had a hunch that today might be the most dangerous day for Jiuquan City. As long as he survives today, Jiuquan City will be defended.
Unfortunately, Song Hao's premonition was only half right. Today is indeed the most dangerous day for Jiuquan City. That's because it is about to fall today.
The cup of tea passed quickly. Song Hao ignored Lu Guang at all. Lu Guang was a little angry, waved his hand and shouted: "Duan Ye!"
"Yes!" Duan Ye, who had been prepared for a long time, responded loudly, then waved the red flags in both hands at the same time, and Duan Ping and others shouted at the same time: "Solley!"
The boulder cannons lined up in a row were pulled by the ropes together by well-trained soldiers, and the sliding hooks were pulled apart under the action of the traction rope. Then the counterweighted boulders fell, and the stone bullets used for attack were thrown together!
Time seems to have stood still!
Song Hao could hardly believe his eyes!
Dozens of boulders, which required several strong men to carry, just like that, under the operation of so many wooden frames and so many people, they flew up, flying very high, obviously higher than the city wall, and then
Once you've passed the highest point, fall down resolutely.
"Be careful!" Before Song Hao could react, he felt himself being pushed violently, his feet slipped, he staggered a few steps and finally fell down, but the place where he stood just now was already a bloody mess!
Those are the soldiers who have followed him for many years and are like family members emotionally. They have now turned into a pile of flesh and blood!
The same thing happened in almost every corner of Luo City. Dozens of boulders fell at the same time, giving no chance for the dense crossbowmen and shield-bearers to dodge. The ground of Luo City almost instantly became a Shura field.
Xie Batian luckily avoided it, and when he looked up, he saw countless familiar figures that had turned into flesh and blood. Fortunately, he looked for Xiaohui and found that the city guard Song Hao was still there, and he was filled with sadness and anger but also a little bit of joy in his heart.
He had already seen the county magistrate's hat and the torn official uniforms of several other officials. They had obviously been smashed to pieces. After all, during the decisive battle, except for the officials who needed to stick to their posts, most people had to go to the city to boost morale.
, if they were all caught and killed here, there would be no need to fight this battle.
In fact, although the Megalithic artillery team is well-trained, it will take some time to reassemble. Duan Ye does not have the time to form hundreds of artillery teams. In addition, in order to deter the enemy, he used salvo fire, so it will take a little time at this time.
It was no coincidence that he reattached the hook and took off the weight stone, which gave Xie Batianyun some time.
Xie Batian crawled to Song Hao's side. In just a few steps, the strong smell of blood and the red and white things everywhere made Xie Batian, who had always been cold and cold, a little disgusted. Those who had their hands and feet broken by stones
The soldiers whose bodies were partially suppressed were screaming, but Xie Batian didn't bother to comfort them at this time. He hurriedly came to Song Hao's side. Seeing that Song Hao was not injured, he picked up Song Hao and walked away.
Shout: "Avoid! Avoid!"
There is really no way. The Luocheng of the city is the most conspicuous place at the top of the city, and it is also the main area of defense. However, they have that strange trebuchet, which is fast and powerful. The giant stone of the heaven is really beyond the power of human beings.
Keeping troops here is nothing but seeking death.
Song Hao finally woke up and saw Xie Batian dragging him down the city platform quickly, and said hurriedly: "What are you doing! I want to be with the soldiers!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several huge stone cannons that had been adjusted were fired again under Duan Ye's order. The cornices of the attic in Luocheng were immediately smashed. The walls and ceilings could not block the power of the huge rocks. More than ten people who hid inside
Celebrity soldiers once again became ghosts under the stone.
One salvo is enough. What is needed is to maintain fire suppression for a long time. The boulder cannon has been numbered and has been trained in advance. Duan Ping is also familiar with how to operate it. He can fire more than ten at a time and reload the rest.
Make sure the rain of stones never stops.
Moreover, the boulder cannon is completely outside the effective range of bows and arrows. Even if there are powerful archers holding a few strong bows, they are also protected by shields. The ballistic trajectory of the stone is relatively high, so there is no fear of accidentally injuring one's own people.
The thing that has been ahead of the game for too long has no rivals. A burst of stones fell down, and all the living people on the city were cleared. Some of the lucky ones had already run away, and the rest were all turned into meat patties.
Lu Guang and others had already seen this once in Qiuci City, so they all smiled reservedly, but the tens of thousands of new auxiliary soldiers of the Jiuquan Army had never seen this scene before. The stones were thrown down, and there was no room for resistance.
So many people died at the top of the city. When Duan Ye assured them, they were actually dubious, including the newly trained operators. However, after seeing it with their own eyes today, the entire Jiuquan Army only had one word for Duan Ye, surrender!
