Wang Xi commanded the soldiers around him and whispered.
The surrounding soldiers quickly followed Wang Xi's command and began to place the explosives in front of them against the roots of the city wall.
"After putting it away, hurry up and leave!"
Wang Xi whispered to the soldiers around him.
With so many people gathered here, it is easy to attract the attention of the guards on the city wall!
At this time, these soldiers quickly and carefully began to leave the city wall.
Soon, another batch of gunpowder came next to him.
Quickly start placing them against the base of the city wall.
Soon, a total of two thousand kilograms of gunpowder were placed.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wang Xi's eyes showed emotion. After pondering for a moment, he began to slowly place the fuse and adjust the position of the explosive.
After placing the explosives, he looked at the blasting location, with a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
He really doesn’t have a good grasp!
If it were another city, then this explosive would basically be 100% able to blow open the city wall.
But this is Shanhaiguan!
Such a thick wall...
Wang Xi shook his head and didn't think much about it.
After cleaning up the fuses, Wang Xi arranged the explosive packs in front of him to ensure that the power of the explosives in front of him was pointed at one point.
Wang Xicai pulled the lead and quickly left the city wall.
Then he decisively lit the fuse in front of him.
The fuse burned quickly, and Wang Xi ran quickly.
Now is no time to hide anything.
The soldiers on the city wall also quickly spotted Wang Xi's back.
"There seems to be a person there!"
"Archery!"
Soon, the soldiers on the city wall began to shoot arrows at Wang Xi, who rolled and crawled hundreds of meters away.
"boom!"
Shocking loud noise.
It shocked everyone instantly.
Hauge and Wang Ting, who were sleeping, were all awakened by the loud noise.
"not good!"
The thoughts that flashed in Wang Ting and Hauge's minds at the same time were almost all of this!
Their expressions changed drastically, and they stood up in unison and quickly ran in the direction of the loud noise.
They almost all have the same idea in their minds!
That loud noise from Daming Mansion!
Although neither of them wanted to let the city fall, Hauge thought that he had no way to take revenge, but Wang Ting thought that the Manchu Qing could not capture Shanhaiguan so easily. In that case, what would happen to him?
All the planning has almost no effect!
Although the two of them have different ideas, in the final analysis they both do not want this city to fall!
So both of them anxiously ran towards the place where the sound came from.
On the way, Hauge and Wang Ting met. They looked at each other and saw the anxious look in each other's eyes, but said nothing.
The two of them ran towards the place where the loud noise came from.
Soon, the two came to the place where the loud noise came from.
And on the other side.
Kong Youde and Hong Chengchou looked at the city wall in front of them with somewhat unsightly expressions.
Although the city wall in front of us is broken, it has not collapsed!
Such a huge explosion did not collapse the city wall in front of them, which they couldn't accept!
But they didn't blame Wang Xi on the side.
Wang Xi, on the other hand, felt a little guilty. He looked at the city wall in front of him and said with a wry smile on his face to Kong Youde and Hong Chengchou.
"Two generals, it's my fault! But it is true that this city wall is strong enough, and we do not have a large enough amount of explosives. If we want to blow down this city wall, I am afraid we will need nearly 5,000 kilograms of gunpowder, which may be able to collapse the city wall!
Two thousand kilograms is the limit of what can be broken!"
Wang Xi said to Kong Youde with some guilt.
"fine!"
Kong Youde shook his head.
"You've done a good job! At least there are cracks in this city wall. Let's start attacking with our siege tanks in this direction!"
"Your reward will still be given to you as usual!"
Kong Youde said to Wang Xi who was standing aside.
After hearing Kong Youde's words, Wang Xi's face showed a hint of joy.
Ten thousand taels of silver!
"Thank you, General! Thank you, General!"
Wang Xi quickly said to Kong Youde in front of him.
"You go down!"
"Yes! General!"
With that said, Wang Xi quickly left.
At this time, Kong Youde in front of him had a hint of hesitation in his eyes and said to Hong Chengchou in front of him.
"Are these cracks enough for our siege tanks to penetrate?"
"It's hard to say!"
Hong Chengchou's eyes were calm, he looked at Kong Youde in front of him and said: "I have told you many times about this city wall, it is not simple!
But now, we finally have a target! Moreover, we can also attack in the east and west! Now that there are cracks in the city wall, they will definitely focus on defending this place!
We can attack it elsewhere!"
Hong Chengchou's eyes flashed with light and he said to Kong Youde who was standing aside.
“Great idea!”
Kong Youde's eyes suddenly lit up, a hint of excitement flashed across his face, and he looked at Hong Chengchou in front of him.
"It seems that we are going to build more ladders!"
"More siege tanks!"
Hong Chengchou smiled slightly and looked at Kong Youde in front of him!
At this time, on the other side, Wang Ting and Hauge finally arrived in front of the city wall involved.
Looking at the appearance of the city wall, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Fortunately! The city wall is strong enough! Otherwise something big would really happen!"
Wang Ting said to Hauge in front of him with a wry smile in his eyes.
"kindness!"
Hauge nodded, with a solemn look in his eyes.
This is really a good thing, the city wall is strong enough, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous!
If the city wall collapses, Hong Chengchou's tens of thousands of troops will definitely rush into the city immediately. By then, the 20,000 people in the city will definitely be defeated by Hong Chengchou!
It will be really troublesome then!
fine!
"However, there are now cracks in this city wall..."
Hauge's face was slightly solemn.
"It can't be helped!"
Wang Ting had a look of helplessness in his eyes. He looked at Hauge in front of him and said: "We can only increase the defense of this place! Also, King Hauge, it seems that we must strengthen the defense at night.
On patrol!
If a scene like today happens again...
Of course, these explosives tonight should be most of the explosives in their military camp. This is also a good thing. In a short time, their artillery should be useless!
But, who knows when they will be able to deliver the explosives, so we still have to be careful!"
Wang Ting said to Hauge in front of him with a serious face.
