Chapter 367 The city gate collapses, like the sky is falling apart

The flames soared into the sky were connected, and a large number of Liang soldiers were surrounded by fierce fires in an instant. The smell of burning flames was extremely painful. Whether it was the general, commander, or ordinary soldiers, once they were stained with flames that could not be extinguished, they all let out heart-wrenching howls. They were struggling in the flames, but from a distance they looked like they were dancing and dancing.

Many other firemen fell down from the city wall and fell to death, which could immediately avoid the pain of being burned by the flames and swallowing flesh and blood!

After being improved by Zheng Fan, who has been good at studying firearms, the fire bombs that are now shot out by the catapult are all filled with thickened and enlarged crock pots. When they are about to be cast, they will ignite the fire attached to it. In order to avoid the long crossbow shot from the opposite bed crossbow, they will accidentally shoot the shells stored in the cannonballs, and instead trigger fire in their own military formations.

The fire is drawn into several thick cubes and buried in a groove on the clay pot to ensure that it will not be blown out by strong wind when it falls rapidly in the air. Although the blasting fire is reinforced, the clay pot made of the material will immediately break if it is subjected to a violent impact. The sputtering and splashing of the ignition oil in it can certainly be imagined.

Especially in the battle to defend the city, the enemy gathered above the city wall with relatively limited space. Once a blast of fire hits the air, it immediately triggers a fire when it falls into the crowd, which is enough to make the enemy who is hit immediately fall into chaos.

In this way, Li Tianqu watched the battle situation and saw fires bursting out from the opposite city wall. From a distance, red lights ignited from a group of villains at the city gate, and their movements were more frequent. Then, flames fell from the towering walls... The scene was particularly thrilling.

Li Tianqu suddenly remembered that he had watched a TV series called "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an" in his previous life, which was about the secret organization of the bad generals who inspected Chang'an under the name of "Qelhodo", but in fact, they were planning to use fierce tinder oil. The power of fierce tinder oil in the play is a bit exaggerated, but now it has been improved by Zheng Fu, and in a large-scale war, the fierce tinder bombs emitted by a large number of catapults have ignited a sea of ​​fire, and the visual impact is too strong.

The fierce fire and the heat wave formed by the nearby defenders also made the nearby defenders retreat in panic. However, the crossbows and crossbows that shot from the city gate can also cause certain damage to the siege members of the city wall. Suddenly, an extremely shrill whistling sound came? A long crossbows and arrows were chiseled in a towering catapult? The same sound of a violent impact was made.

The creaking sound of the wood was immediately cracked was particularly clear. The frame of the stone thrower and the fixed horizontal axis between the pillars burst out? It collapsed suddenly. Four or five soldiers who were dodging were killed. In the front of Li Tianqu's army, there were also generals who shouted loudly to avoid dodging? At the same time, pay attention to the stored fire bombs, the poisonous smoke bombs were covered with large sloping hardwoods, and were ready to transfer at any time.

After all, in addition to firearms and shells, the siege equipment equipped by Li Tianqu’s troops has not yet formed a technological crushing effect on the current season of city guarding equipment. Although bed crossbows and catapults are more powerful and have a longer range than strong bow crossbows, they can only lock in the approximate position of the enemy and cannot form precise strikes.

The defenders led by Zhu Youyu spared no effort to destroy the enemy's siege equipment arranged in front of the formation. They can also cause certain damage. However, when Li Tianqu frequently fire bombs were fired... On a city gate, several soldiers controlled the crossbows and anxiously corrected their positions. When they were about to fire at the bottom of the city, a fire bomb suddenly hit him accurately.

The fire broke out, and the soldiers were immediately wrapped in flames? And the crossbow they controlled was also swallowed by the flames. It won’t take long? It will also turn into a charred ruin!

What's more, the shells emitted by the stone catapult in front of the formation hit all over Kaifeng City Pass again. Although they were wrapped in paper and hemp skin, they were coated with asphalt and yellow wax? Because of their limited destructive power, they ignited the poisonous smoke cartridges made of wormwood, horse manure, sulfur and even a few poisonous weeds. When they were thrown into the air, they pulled out a long black line and landed everywhere in front of Kaifeng City, forming thick black smoke that could not be dissipated by the wind.

The soldiers guarding the city of Liang took a breath and felt their eyes sting and coughing continuously. After staying for a while, they coughed violently as if they were about to vomit their lungs. Some soldiers inhaled too much poisonous smoke, and they could not breathe, and they bleeded in the mouth and nose until they fell into the thick smoke and fainted immediately!

On the other hand, on the outside of Kaifeng, many soldiers who covered their mouths and noses with soaked linen cloth immediately projected the poisonous smoke cartridges and continued to strike uninterruptedly towards Kaifeng City.

According to Li Tianqu's deployment, the city wall ahead suffered the most severe damage and the most prone to collapse continued to bombard the violent bomb. At the same time, the frequent launch of poisonous smoke bombs and fierce fire bombs was also effectively blocked the dispatch of the surrounding defenders, and tried to withstand the pressure and quickly repair the shaky city gate.

The fierce attack has been underway, and Li Tianqu is watching the situation as he expected... Now there are more than 100,000 troops launching a full-scale attack on Kaifeng. Even if the capital of Liang was originally in the capital, the city was much more dangerous than that of Wanqiu, Chenzhou... But Li Tianqu said that I was in charge of the bandits who lacked heavy siege equipment like Huang Chao, and he had already made preparations to conquer the famous city. When the war came to this point, what methods did you have to do with it?

Zhu Youyu was so sad and angry that he was really helpless.

There was no way to get in the dangerous place, so he had to withdraw from the city gate tower and supervise the commander behind the city gate. Zhu Youyu was sweating all over and screamed hoarsely. However, he looked around anxiously and saw that there was no fire everywhere on the towering city walls, and even black smoke rolling. The heart-wrenching howls of the soldiers under his command continued to reach his ears...

What made Zhu Youyu even more surprised was that the sound of bricks and stones breaking and becoming louder and louder came in and out. The large-scale city wall on his right had been repaired two rounds before, but the speed of emergency repairs could not keep up with the rate of fierce attacks by the enemy's gunstones. Large areas of gravel had already slipped down, and the collapse of the city wall in that area was even more than the city gate next to it.

As Zhu Youyu was clamoring again, he was forced to wait not far away. The forced brigade of people and men brought stones and wood under the coercion of the defenders, eager to build and repair the city walls. They had to catch up as soon as possible by stepping on the collapsed brick and stone ruins below, approaching what they could, so that the foundation would be laid and the precarious broken city wall would continue to support it.

However, a fierce fire bomb passed through the collapsed city wall and smashed straight into the group of civilians. The flames suddenly rose, and even Zhu Youyu, who was watching from a distance, felt his eyes shining brightly!

A tragic howling sounded like a pig, and a large number of civilians were engulfed by the flames. They abandoned the bricks, stones and hardwoods in their hands, swung their bodies wildly, and kept running, trying to throw off the flames on their bodies in vain. The companions around suddenly saw such a tragic scene. Seeing that the fierce fire was about to affect them again, which one would still wait for death here? They ignored the threat of Liang Jun wielding swords and guns around them, and suddenly they scattered!

"boom!!!"

Another heavy and huge rock bullet hit the broken wall area hard. The city wall had already collapsed and collapsed. The sound of Kalala bricks and stones shattered even louder. Then there was a loud bang, as if the sky and the earth were cracked. A piece of warriors fell down from the city wall. Some of the guards who dodged above were unstable and fell down immediately, and their bodies were immediately swallowed by the smoke and dust raised in the sky...

Kaifeng City Wall was finally blasted out of a gap!
Chapter completed!
