Chapter 294: Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart

The huge sound was like thunder, and then the imperial guards on the city wall felt trembling.

The people who were still confident just now changed their brilliance at this moment. No one could tell what happened. They just heard the sound of the muffled thunder, as if a thunder fire was directly struck by their side.

Countless people instinctively lay down, and a few archers who poked out the wall were unstable in the center of gravity. In addition, the people behind them were shaking uneasy, and they fell off the city wall with a shrill roar.

In fact, it was not just the city tower and wall of Jianchun Gate. Even the minister behind the Tiance Army sighed and sighed suddenly. The few people were frightened and paralyzed. Usually, the few people were quite determined, and suddenly felt weak and almost fell down.

The ground collapsed...

This is a terrible idea.

The earth collapse is a warning from God, and the earth collapse is terrible and spreads widely. God is angry.

Cui Feng fell into the snow and was barely helped up. Someone exclaimed: "Look."

Cui Feng looked up like earthy face and saw hundreds of fireballs flying towards the city wall in the sky.

The shell made of the iron ball sprayed out from the muzzle. Because of the high temperature created by the instant gunpowder, the surface of the iron ball was burned red, and it moved at high speed in the air, splashing sparks, and it flew directly into Jianchun Gate like a meteor, with the remnant flames.

"This...what is this?" Cui Feng was shocked and inexplicably.

The person on the side couldn't help but say, "Can you have the help of the divine weapon?"

There are things that cannot be understood in every era, just as people in the late Qing Dynasty could not understand why trains ran automatically, but people in this era naturally could not understand. After the muffled thunder sounded, countless fireballs would fly out of the sky.

Cui Xu looked at Wu Sansi on the side, and said in a daze: "No wonder, no wonder, no wonder Qin Shaoyou didn't go to Chongwen Sect. It turned out... it turned out..."

This speech that was lost in Wu Sansi's mouth may be just an exclamation, but when he heard Cui Xi's ears, Cui Xi's body suddenly shook, and she understood.

It is believed that Qin Shaoyou and the people from the Wu family had already discussed it. They arranged an insider in Chongwen Sect, but Qin Shaoyou insisted on his own and arrived at Jianchun Sect again.

Thinking of this, Cui Feng couldn't help but feel a strong chill in his heart. There was a clear shortcut. Why did Qin Shaoyou attack Luoyang from here? Is Qin Shaoyou a fool? Of course not. Tonight is a storm. Anyone's performance tonight will determine the fate of everyone in the next ten years. Of course, Qin Shaoyou is not as simple as Cui Feng thought at first. What else do he need to support him?

Do you want to show your strength? Do you want to show your trump card of the army?

As we all know, Qin Shaoyou has a humble background, which is also the difference between Qin Shaoyou and most people. In this clan society, every standard for weighing strength comes from his current official position and power, and also from the strength of his respective families. Cui Xu was able to survive several dynasties but not because he was the Shizhong, but because behind him was the Cui family of Qinghe. Therefore, Cui Xu's strength is obvious, but Qin Shaoyou's strength is secret. Today, Qin Shaoyou is afraid that he will reveal all his trump cards. What he wants is not only credit, but how to occupy his due position with his own strength after the new pattern is born.

Thinking of this, Cui Feng narrowed his eyes. The first thing that the new emperor ascended the throne was of course rewarding merits, and who is the first to be the first? Of course, it was Qin Shaoyou, but to be honest, did Qin Shaoyou get the most rewards? This may not be the case, because the other meaning of rewarding merits is that the new emperor has unstable status, so it is necessary to win over people. Whose human heart is the new emperor? Is it necessary to win over ordinary cats and dogs? Just like Cui Feng, Cui Feng's contribution may be the last, but it is very likely that the Cui family has benefited the most from this reward of merits. Why? Because the Cui family is worthy of winning over, the Cui family is a big business and is the cornerstone of stabilizing the world. If the Cui family is not won over, the new emperor's position will be really stable?

This is Qin Shaoyou's plan. He is showing his capital now. He would rather not take shortcuts than go to the city in front of him. He is not only for this great contribution, but also for all his strength. The greater his strength, the more impossible it is to suppress the new king, because when his foothold is not stable, he needs to rely on all the power that can be supported, and the greater the power, the better.

Qin Shaoyou is working hard for the benefit.

Cui Feng just sucked the air conditioner, thinking about Qin Shaoyou's many "sincere" intentions.

But at this moment, there were a lot of ghosts and howlings on the top of the city.

The fire rain fell, and the iron ball smashed down hard, smashing the female wall, splashing countless stones, directly smashing the person into meat sauce, smashing the person to pieces.

The lethality of the iron ball is actually very limited. At least for the more than 10,000 elite soldiers on the top of the city, the chance of being knocked down is actually not very good.

But the panic caused by this is fatal.

In order to avoid, countless people ran around like headless flies. The roar just now made them lose their courage instantly, and wailing sounds were everywhere in their ears. This round of fire rain only harvested the lives of one or two hundred people. However, this wailing and despair cry was infinitely amplified. The shadow caused by the roar and the shaking of the earth had not yet dissipated. Now, together with the fear brought by the attack of the fire rain, it burst out.

Many imperial guards are veterans on the battlefield of hundreds of wars. They may not be afraid of death. On that battlefield, they have never been timid. However, people have an instinctive horror towards the unknown, and people are used to spreading the horror, so there is a mess in the aisle of the city walls.

A military officer shouted: "Call, shoot!" Some bold archers curled their fear and hurriedly stuck their heads out and shot out locusts.

The locusts were completely in the dark, but they seemed to have all shot into the water, and they did not bring any effect.

Artillery can strike the city wall at a long distance, but the arrows on the city wall are obviously impossible to hit the Yuan side's artillery positions.

This means that they can only be beaten passively.

Rumble...

It was another familiar voice. When the terrified imperial guards heard this sound, they seemed to hear the death talisman. They looked up and there was another rain of fire in the sky. They could even hear the iron ball whistling in the air.

"Run..."

Some people ran away with their heads in their arms, knocking their friends down, and some people fell to the ground, and were immediately trampled by blind followers.

There is no more order on the city walls and towers.

Li Duozha was also shocked. He was protected by several personal soldiers and entered the city tower. As soon as he arrived, an iron ball broke into the window and directly knocked the things inside into a mess. Only then did several generals of guard realize that even the city tower was unsafe.

"What's this?"

"It's like throwing a rock..."

"Bastard, if you set up a stone throwing cart, how could it be done overnight? Besides..." Li Duozha couldn't help but lift the sword. Fortunately, at this moment, he had already realized that the most powerful thing about this thing was probably not lethality, but the panic caused.

Does this Qin Shaoyou think that only such a powerful weapon can break the city?

Li Duozha smiled.

The smile was a little bitter.

The defenders on the city were indeed not prepared enough, and the morale of the army was now lost. The only thing that was lucky was that they were the one guarding the city. Otherwise, at this time, they would have been flattened by the bandit army.

He inserted his sword fiercely on the wooden wall beside him and said seriously: "No matter what, keep the morale of the army stable, you must not let the thieves have an opportunity to take advantage of it. This fireball is indeed powerful. If you withdraw all the archers, you don't have to let them poke your head out. The rest of the people, except for sending down a group of people down the city, will garrison the city tower, so as not to take advantage of the situation to climb into the wall. Anyone who dares to violate the order will be beheaded."

Li Duozha's eyes were so red that he was obviously angry, and Qin Shaoyou completely angered him. Li Duozha's heart was no longer the so-called prince and the prime minister. Those who were all famous, all he wanted was to crush Qin Shaoyou and the Tiance army.

The rounds of fire rain never stopped, accompanied by the huge roar, shining the air red again and again.

Most of the people were dismissed from the city wall to defend the city, and the rest were like archers, and they tried their best to let them hide in the city wall. Although the power of this cannon was sharp, it was not difficult as long as it was found to deal with it. Although each round would bring about a large number of casualties, under the constraints of Li Duozha, the morale of the army finally remained barely stable.

However, under the cover of this artillery, the people from the Tiance Military Industry Battalion had quietly sneaked under the city wall. Hundreds of people were wearing black clothes and sneaking in the dark.

Because the archers on the city wall were no longer afraid to emerge, and the artillery fired deliberately avoided the section of the city wall where they were, they arrived at the city without any obstacles.

If it can be so smooth, it is probably due to the ghost weather. Because it is cold and snowing a few days ago, the moat has been frozen. These people are holding hoes in their hands, and under the command of Wang Lun, the commander of the Working Camp, began to move soil in the corners.

Wang Lun whispered there: "It's faster. Before dawn, you have to dig a five-meter hole. It must be one meter square and the hole must be narrower. Hehe... Hu'er, dig here and see where the soil is pineapple. Remember, you have to dig in and dig under the city wall. The foundation of the Luoyang City wall is 1 zhang... Hey... don't let it go, you have to dig the hole even if you freeze to death." (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
