Wei and Jin Cooks - Chapter 808
Chapter 808 Siege
The thought flashed through, and there was another huge “bang”, the ground shook, the palace shook twice, Liu Yuan felt bad, and quickly helped the servant’s hand to get up, and stumbled out.
Pingyang City Imperial Palace is at a slightly higher place, standing at the entrance of the palace, you can look at the city gate. At this time, the direction of the city gate is full of fire.
Before he could open his mouth, there was another loud noise, and at the same time, huge smoke and flames rose up. Liu Yuan trembled his lips and asked, “Then, what is that?”
At this time, Chen Wu, Xie Shi, Ji Yuanmingyu and the others also stared wide-eyed at the huge iron ball exploding up and down the Pingyang City Gate, and their hearts trembled with every sound.
They do, let alone the three armies.
The soldiers of the three armies were all excited and dumbfounded. They looked at Fu Tinghan with both admiration and fear.
Only Zhao Erlang wandered around Fu Tinghan with an excited expression on his face, followed him to another trebuchet, watched him teach the soldiers to calibrate the trebuchet, and then stepped aside.
Seeing the torches in the soldiers’ hands, Zhao Erlang was eager to try, “Brother-in-law, let me light this one.”
Fu Tinghan nodded after thinking for a while, “Then you order.”
The iron can was made by Qiuwu’s craftsmen for the purpose of transporting gunpowder, and a wooden barrel was placed outside the iron can.
In the past two days, Fu Tinghan opened the tin can, modified the gunpowder inside, and reconnected the live wire. In order to prevent the lead wire from contacting the gunpowder prematurely, and to ensure that the lead wire was turned off during the throwing process, he added a Circle bamboo tube.
Yesterday, they also tried the time required for throwing under the same mass to calculate the lead wire needed to ensure that the gunpowder will explode within three seconds after it hits the ground.
Zhao Erlang was not as nervous as the soldiers on the side at all. He took the torch and immediately stretched out the torch to light the fuse after Fu Tinghan gave the order to light the fire.
The lead wire squeaked, and the soldiers on the side immediately cut off the rope, the trebuchet suddenly tilted up, and the iron ball flew towards Pingyang City with a whoosh sound. This time the iron ball was more accurate, and it slammed directly on the top of the city gate On the door, it fell along the top of the door, and it slammed open with a bang before it hit the ground.
After the smoke and dust passed, a big hole was blown open at the gate of the city, and the Huns ambushing inside were howling.
Chen Wu and the others trembled and turned to look at Fu Tinghan, only to see him drooping, correcting the corner of another trebuchet.
Sensing their gaze, he turned his head to look, and Fu Shangshu, whom they thought was gentle and kind, nodded at them and said, “There is one last one, I will try to blow open the city gate for you.”
Chen Wu and the others tried their best to squeeze out a smile, and nodded tremblingly.
Fu Tinghan did what he said, and this time he still accurately threw it at the gate of the city. After a loud noise, most of the gate of Pingyang City was blown open, and everyone on and off the tower was terrified.
Zhao Hanzhang pointed his spear and said loudly: “Soldiers, God bless me, follow me to set things right, charge—”
The soldiers came back to their senses in an instant, and then roared, “Come on—”
Zhao Hanzhang took the lead to kill, and all the soldiers immediately followed. Fu Tinghan stood in the same place, watching thousands of soldiers running past him, and went straight out. He turned his head and said to the soldiers who controlled the catapult: “Get on the stone, Adjust the height, the target tower.”
“yes!”
The soldiers immediately moved the stones, tied the ropes, and threw stones…
When Zhao Hanzhang rushed into the city first, Fu Tinghan and the others stopped, so as not to accidentally injure his own people by falling rocks.
Fu Tinghan also has a rear army behind him, this is for support, they are motionless.
As counselors, Ji Yuan and Ming Yu didn’t move, they stood in the same place, listening to the loud shouts of killing coming from Pingyang City, after a while, someone attacked the tower, and they moved a bit stiffly Body, quickly took out clairvoyance to look.
Seeing Zhao Erlang flying a person with a gun, and holding a knife in the other hand, he chopped off the flag on the tower with one knife, and his personal soldiers came over with a flag, unfolded it and inserted it.
The “Zhao” flag unfolds with the wind, hunting the wind on the city gate.
Ji Yuan was very excited when he saw it, and happily said to Fu Tinghan: “Mr. Da Lang, we have taken down the Pingyang city tower.”
Ming Yu couldn’t help but glance at him, but still caught up immediately, “Fu Shangshu should take the lead in this battle.”
Ji Yuan is really not an ordinary person. He used to be called Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu, so he is now called Lord Dalang?
Fu Tinghan saw that the Zhao family army had successfully entered Pingyang City with very little loss, so he couldn’t help showing a smile. Using gunpowder has both disadvantages and advantages. Now it seems that it may not kill many people.
He let out a breath, nodded with Ji Yuanming and said: “I also ask two soldiers to go to the north gate and east gate to defend and take people, in case the Liu royal family escapes.”
Ji Yuan and Ming Yu got serious, and quickly responded.
Ji Yuan said: “Don’t be strict, just relax a little bit. Except for the royal family, everyone else will escape if they escape.”
Fu Tinghan nodded and said affirmatively, “Don’t chase after the poor.”
Ji Yuan responded with a smile, and seeing Ming Yu kept looking at him, he stretched out his hand and dragged him away, taking away a large army each.
But before leaving, Ji Yuan specially called Shi Hongtu and Lu Daxuan over, and said: “Protect Mr. Da Lang.”
The two guards nodded seriously, extremely solemn.
Ming Yu was pulled out by him for a long distance before pulling out his hand, and said quietly: “Mr.
“I always respect Mr. Fu,” Ji Yuan said solemnly, “He is the sub-lord.”
“Really?” Ming Yu said, “I always thought that Mr. Ji regarded the second general as the sub-lord.”
Ji Yuan ignored his words, looked around and asked, “Are you going to the North City Gate or the East City Gate?”
Ming Yu said: “East.”
Ji Yuan curled his lips, but he was not polite. He was far away from the North City Gate, and part of the middle was controlled by the Huns. Zhao’s army failed to wipe out all the Huns outside Pingyang City.
But Ji Yuan still went.
Zhao Hanzhang still wants to exchange Zhao Zhongyu with members of the Xiongnu royal family, but they cannot be allowed to escape.
Many soldiers knew that Zhao Hanzhang intended to exchange hostages with members of the Xiongnu royal family, so as soon as they rushed into the city, they fought desperately towards the palace of Pingyang City.
The Xiongnu army in Pingyang City was frightened by their aura, and they were overwhelmed by the previous few packs of explosives. At this time, they were somewhat inferior to the brave Qihuo army and Zhao’s army.
Especially the begging army was good at fighting in the city, Chen Wu took the lead, led his begging army out of the street in a quarter of an hour, and ran directly to the palace.
Zhao Erlang was still planting a flag on the tower, when Xie Shishao came in and saw it, he hated that iron could not be made into steel, and told him, “Erlang, hurry up and take people to the palace, all the governors have gone!”
Zhao Hanzhang prefers to clean up the enemies before continuing, so she is one step behind Chen Wu. When she arrives at the palace, Chen Wu has already fought with the forbidden army in the palace. confusion.
Seeing this, Zhao Hanzhang stopped Zhao Erlang and asked him to attack from the left wing, while she responded from the right wing, “Everyone, no matter how high or low, surrender and don’t kill!”
