Empress in Golden Age - C1022
The thick city gate was tightly closed, but it didn’t give the soldiers much peace of mind, because there were too many Xiao Jun coming, and they couldn’t see the edge. There were at least more than 100000 people, but they were only less than 40000. Could they really resist it?
On the four gates of the city, there is a heavy iron plate, which was made by Yu hengming’s blacksmiths in the past ten days. It is several feet thick. For these four heavy iron plates, some rare ironware were even mixed. It was not made until two days ago. No one knows what Yu Heng is going to do. At first glance, it looks like an Epee hanging on the top of his head, People can’t help but panic.
When Yu Heng arrived at the end of the city, Yu Huai was already there. His thin figure looked very thin in the night. Yu Heng frowned and walked over quickly, with a bit of anger and strange way: “how did you come here? Although it’s spring, it’s still cold, especially at night. Hurry back to rest.”
“Xiao Jun is coming. How can I rest?” Silent for a moment, Yu Huai said in a deep voice: “I asked the soldiers, before dawn, Xiao Jun will be in the city.”
Yu Heng patted him on the shoulder and said, “if you have big brother, you will never let them step into Jinling. Just be at ease.”
Yu Huaiding looked at him and said, “brother, do you really have confidence?”
To constant Mou light move, “certainly.” After a meal, he said with a smile: “why, don’t you believe big brother?”
Yu Huai turned his eyes to the dark distance. He seemed to be able to hear the sound of the horse’s hooves stepping on the ground, “not disbelief, but…” Instead of going on, he said, “let me stay a little longer and see how Xiao Jun is coming.”
Seeing what he said, Yu Heng sighed and said, “this is what you said. If you don’t listen to me any more, I will follow our previous agreement and forbid me to participate in this matter.”
“Good.” Yu Huai nodded and agreed. While they were talking, the soldiers were constantly moving things to the city. Oil pots, boulders, fire guns and so on were all the things needed to guard the city.
To their surprise, Xiao Jun stopped half a mile away from the gate of the city. He thought they were taking a rest, but he actually camped there.
You know, even the farthest catapult can’t reach half a mile. They What’s the idea?
The answer was soon revealed, artillery!
Xiao Jun set up eight guns in front of the camp, the muzzle of which was aimed at the city gate. This scene surprised Yu Heng. There were also guns in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Although the range was longer than the catapult, they could not reach half a mile. Even if they could barely reach it, their power was negligible in front of the thick city wall.
Even so, Yu Heng ordered people to hide and be careful. Facts proved that his action was correct. The range of those guns was longer than everyone expected. They fell on the city wall. With the loud noise, the city wall was covered with smoke. After the smoke dispersed, several big holes appeared on it. The deepest one directly blasted half of the city Walls.
Yu Heng’s face changed greatly. He expected that this battle would be difficult to fight, but he didn’t expect that it would be so difficult. He suffered such a big loss just after the war started. The most helpless thing is that they didn’t even have the chance to fight back for such a long distance.
Yu Huai’s face was also ugly. “How could emperor Xiao have such a powerful gun?”
“It seems that in Nanzhao’s time, he has not spared no effort.” Looking at the soldiers in the distance, Yu Heng gritted his teeth and said, “I wanted to keep them until the end, but now it seems that they can’t do it.”
Knowing who he was talking about, Yu Huai nodded and said, “that’s the only way to go. Otherwise, a few more blasts will make the city wall go through.”
Yu Heng bent his fingers and kowtowed to his lips. With a clear whistle, more than ten dark shadows flew down the city and quickly ran to the direction where Xiao Jun was.
These are part of Shenji camp left by mu Qianxue just in case before the battle. This time when Xiao Jun attacked, they were naturally mobilized, but they didn’t expect that they would use this magic weapon as soon as the war started.
Looking at the people of Shenji camp, Xiao Ruo Ao on horseback sneered and said: “shoot!”
Hearing this command, the gunner suddenly lowered his body, revealed a group of musketeers standing behind them, and did not hesitate to shoot at the Shenji camp.
If ordinary soldiers were to be replaced, they would all be killed after this wave of gunfire. However, all the people in Shenji camp are skilled in martial arts and have experienced life and death for a long time. The firearm only slowed down their progress, and there were no casualties.
But This is just the beginning.
After the gunfire, the line of musketeers immediately backed back to reload. The line of musketeers who had been standing behind them immediately pulled the Musketeers that had been prepared for a long time, and then the third line Again and again, the gunfire lasted a cup of tea.
In such a dense fire, someone was finally shot, injured or even killed, but there were still seven or eight people close to Xiao Jun, they divided into two groups, one destroyed the artillery, the other rushed to Xiao Ruo Ao, who seemed to have no defense.
Shoot the horse before shooting the man, and catch the king before catching the thief.
As long as you kill Xiao Ruo Ao, this army will collapse, even if No matter how small the hope is, they will try.Xiao Ruo Ao also found out their intention, and a cold radian appeared in the corner of his mouth
Ah Qi rushes to the front and looks at Xiao Ruo Ao, who is getting closer and closer. Instead of being excited, he raises his vigilance to the highest level and lingers on the edge of life and death all the year round, which makes him understand that the calmer he is, the more dangerous he is.
In fact, it was true. When he was still about a foot away, ah Jiu suddenly felt cold on his back and subconsciously turned back to block him. “Ding Ding Ding Ding” countless needles as thin as ox hair were knocked down by the knife. However, some of them were still caught in the net. They pierced ah Jiu’s back and fell to the ground. They didn’t even have the strength to get up.
Originally, ah Qi’s skill could not be easily plotted, but when these needles hit, there was no sound, or he felt the crisis was approaching in his heart, and then he turned back to block most of them.
Not only ah Qi, but also other Shenji camps were injured by these needles and fell to the ground one after another. What’s more terrible is that their hands became black with the speed visible to the naked eye, and they continued to spread upward. It was obvious that they were poisoned.
“Shenji camp is just like that.” A pair of pink and white embroidered shoes inlaid with pearls appeared in ah Jiu’s eyes. Looking up, a beautiful looking woman was holding an umbrella and looking at him with a smile.
Ah Qi struggled to hold up, “you Who is it? ”
“The one who wants your life.” The woman slowly turns the umbrella. Her fingernails are long and sharp. They are painted with Dankou, but they are not the red or pink used by ordinary women. They are dark green, giving people a very strange feeling.
