131 Crazy Shower (Part 2)
Chongqing Prefecture City, the west gate, and the city gate tower.
Fan Hu held the railing with his hands, squinted his eyes and looked at the officers and soldiers about three miles away, with complex expressions on his face.
Yesterday, he naturally heard such a big noise outside the city.
He knew that it must be reinforcements from the direction of Fotu Pass.
However, he did not expect that the reinforcements could not do anything to the officers and soldiers. This morning, the officers and soldiers were at the city and prepared to attack the city!
Now he also thought that these officers and soldiers must have come across the river by boat and carried out sneak attacks.
Question, how come there are so many people in sneak attacks?
How many warships have the officers and soldiers transferred?
Why didn't they find traces of the warship?
He couldn't understand these things. The only thing he understood was that there were not many soldiers who were sieging the city, and there were only about 10,000 people.
Although he didn't have a telescope and couldn't see it clearly, he could still judge the approximate number of people.
He was not very worried about 10,000 troops coming to attack the city. After all, he had 5,000 troops under his command, and the city defense facilities in Chongqing were quite complete, without four or five times the number of troops. It was basically impossible to attack in.
The only thing he was worried about was that this was just a wave of tentative attacks from the officers and soldiers.
If the officers and soldiers next urged 30,000 or even 40,000 troops to attack the city day and night, he would not know how many days he could defend.
Alas, She Yin, what are you doing?
Hurry up and mobilize reinforcements to deal with these officers and soldiers!
You can’t lose Chongqing Prefecture City. If you lose it, you will be in trouble.
He was frowning and pondering, and the officers and soldiers in the distance had already begun to advance.
The tall well railings, dense siege cars, countless ladders, and a large number of siege equipment were pushed by the officers and soldiers to less than a mile from the city wall.
Now, Fan Hu saw more clearly that the officers and soldiers who attacked the city were indeed about 10,000.
Zhu Qizhu could see more clearly, and he could even see the beard on Fan Hu's face clearly.
This guy is quite calm.
Hehe, I just don’t know if you are so calm when hundreds of shells are smashed down at the same time.
He carefully glanced around the city wall, and then ordered: "Send the order, all artillery is centered on the city gate tower, lined up left and right, each row of fifty gates, all aimed at the city gate tower."
Soon, two hundred artillery pieces were neatly arranged in four rows, and all the muzzles were aimed at the direction of the city gate tower.
At this time, Fan Hu still had no reaction at all.
He didn't have a telescope. At such a long distance, he could see dense black spots. As for the cannons hidden behind the siege car, he didn't see any of them.
Zhu Qizhua looked at Fan Hu's expression with great interest, and then ordered: "Send the order, load the solid bullet of pig iron, prepare."
"Kakukkkkkkkk", a strange sound sounded on the battlefield, neat and crisp, just like, what?
When Fan Hu heard this voice, a hint of panic appeared on his face because he didn't know what the officers and soldiers were doing!
Hehe, let you taste the power of cannons.
Zhu Qizhe put down his telescope and ordered without hesitation: "All artillery, target city gate tower, open fire."
"Boom boom boom boom boom", soon, a dense roar of artillery sounded, and two hundred black shells smashed towards the city gate tower.
Damn, it's a cannon!
So many artillery!
Seeing this, Fan Hu was so scared that he shouted: "Hurry up, avoid the shells."
After saying that, he ignored his image and rushed to the side and lay down under the railing.
There was a burst of noise, and the entire city gate tower was smashed with flowers, wood chips, broken bricks, and broken tiles splashed everywhere.
There is no need to worry about not hitting such a big target. Unfortunately, the accuracy of the tiger squat cannon is still a bit bad. Two hundred shells didn't hit a few people.
Well, it seems that pig iron solid bombs do not have much effect in siege battles. This kind of shell can only be effective when facing dense square formations in field battles.
Zhu Qizhuo ordered without hesitation: "All artillery, change to armor-piercing shells, and fire in a round of volleys."
"KaKaKaKaKa", another strange sound sounded on the battlefield.
This time, you don’t have to think about what will happen next. Fan Hu quickly shouted: “Hurry up, find a place to hide.”
After saying that, he rushed into the city gate tower and looked out through the arrow hole.
Sure enough, then a bunch of shells hit me "Boom Boom Boom Boom".
The effect of this armor-piercing bomb seems to be not as good as that of pig iron solid bomb!
The solid cast iron bullets at least smashed wood chips, broken bricks, and broken tiles flying around, which could hurt some people, but the armor-piercing bullets directly penetrated the walls and roofs of the city gate tower. After drilling inside, there was no effect at all.
Forget it, this thing is more practical to use to break the enemy's shield formation.
Zhu Qizhe immediately ordered: "All artillery, replace the explosion bombs, and fire in a round of volleys."
"Kakukkkkkkkkkk", there was another sound of sound. Fan Hu's face changed in fear. What kind of artillery are officers and soldiers, how can they load ammunition so quickly?
He didn't need to greet other rebels guarding the city, and they all hid in the city gate tower or behind the arrows on the city walls and dared not show their heads.
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another pile of shells hit him.
"Boom boom boom boom boom", before the shells fell on the city gate, another explosion sounded.
This time, there was finally a significant effect. I don’t know how many rebels behind the arrow pile were stabbed by iron needles flying around and screamed.
It seems that the explosion bomb is the best siege weapon!
Zhu Qizhe glanced around with a telescope, and then ordered: "All artillery, replace blasting bombs, and fire in a round of volleys."
"Crack, Crack, Crack," there was another sound of sound.
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another pile of shells hit him.
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another explosion sounded.
This time, the rebels who were hiding in the city gate tower were in trouble because many blasting bombs exploded after they were smashed into the city gate tower.
With a "bang", Fan Hu felt like he was slashed hard by someone, and he rushed to the ground, and his helmet almost dropped.
What exactly is this?
He held the helmet in a daze, then looked at the screaming guards around him, his face full of horror.
The brunette has been tested now. The blasting bomb's siege effect is not as good as the blasting bomb. If he wants to collapse the city gate tower, he can continue to use the blasting bomb, but there is no need for him to do so.
After all, they still have to defend after capturing Chongqing Prefecture. The city gate tower collapsed, and it would be difficult to build a new one.
He thought for a while and then ordered: "Send the order, all artillery cannons will be replaced with explosion bombs, straighten the artillery door, and prepare to scatter within a hundred steps near the city gate tower."
"Crack, Crack, Crack," there was another sound of sound.
However, this time, the roar of artillery did not sound immediately.
Zhu Qizhi looked at the prepared artillery array and then ordered: "The Imperial Guards are ready to attack the city."
Upon hearing this, Li Wanxiong quickly climbed up a well, raised his hand and shouted: "Prepare to attack the city."
"Crash", all the soldiers of the Imperial Guard quickly leaned towards the well railing and the siege car, and lifted the ladder at the same time.
Zhu Qizhe immediately ordered: "Telection, all artillery, three-wheeled burst bombs, the Imperial Guards, rushed forward."
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another roar of cannons sounded, and Li Wanxiong waved his hand and shouted: "Crash with me."
"Run!"
Tens of thousands of imperial guards shouted in unison, pushing the well railing and siege cars, carrying the ladder, and heading straight to the city gate tower.
Seeing this, Fan Hu rushed out of the city gate tower and shouted: "Hurry up, prepare to shoot arrows."
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another roar of artillery sounded, and the archers crawled out of the hidden place and were thundered by the explosion bombs.
ah!
Fan Hu pulled the iron needle on his face with pain and shouted: "Hurry up, prepare to roll stones and wood!"
"Boom boom boom boom boom", another roar of cannons sounded. As soon as the sword and shield hands were put down their sword and shield and were about to move the rolling stone, they were blown up by the explosion bomb.
It's over!
At this time, the Imperial Guard had rushed to the city wall. As hundreds of ladders leaned against the city wall, everyone lined up like ants climbing up a tree, and quickly climbed up the city wall. Li Wanxiong even jumped, jumped directly from the well railing to the city wall, and started to slash and kill.
There is no suspense in this siege. In the storm and rain-like bombardment, the rebels guarding the city had no time to shoot arrows, nor did they have time to roll stones and the Imperial Guards rushed to the city wall.
Moreover, at this moment, the middle section of the city wall and on both sides of the city gate tower were basically full of rebels injured by explosion bombs. Li Wanxiong and the others basically gained a firm foothold on the city wall without much effort.
The rebels are powerless to turn things around!
