Chapter 414(1/2)

The 200,000 army besieged Jinyang, which was a head-on war, and there was no luck at all.

Gao Huaide attacked Dongcheng, Yang Ye attacked Beicheng, Han Tong attacked Xicheng, and Wang Quanbin attacked Beicheng.

The so-called three sieges lack one, does not exist at all in this battle.

Liu Chong had no way to run, or he didn't want to run at all. In Jinyang City, let alone people, even a dog, they were all stationed in the city.

There is no other choice. If they lose Jinyang, Shatuo will be completely finished.

All the people in the city, especially those Shatu people, knew this better. Many people lived in Jinyang for generations. Their ancestors followed Li Keyong to rampant the world, destroyed Huang Chao uprising, and Zhu Wen. For decades, Shatu soldiers had never been afraid of anyone!

bring it on!

Fight to the death!

The entire Jinyang was shrouded in a deep tragedy, and everyone was working hard to fight to the end.

For the Great Zhou, isn't this the case?

As early as the beginning of its founding, the Northern Han colluded with the Khitan to go south, causing disaster to the Central Plains.

The Khitans were defeated, but they refused to give up. They even wanted to dig the Yellow River and flood the Central Plains. How vicious they were!

If the Northern Han Dynasty is not destroyed, the heaven and earth will not tolerate it!

Dongdongdongdongdongdong!

The crossbow fired by the bed crossbow landed on the Yangma City outside Jinyang, and a violent explosion caused bursts of dust.

It has to be said that Jinyang, which has been running since the Tang Dynasty, is really easy to defend but difficult to attack. It would be great if there is a moat outside other cities. Jinyang not only has a moat, but also a circle of Sheep Horse City outside the city, which is also a moat outside the city.

In this way, layer by layer, firmly protecting the majestic Jinyang.

It's not easy to get in!

"Boom, bang me!"

Han Tong never desperately fought in war. He held a commanding knife in his hand. Every time he waved it, a round of crossbows shot out, blowing up dust and bricks cracked.

The soldiers behind Yangma City suffered heavy losses and corpses were lying on the top of the city.

After an hour of attack, Han Tong raised his sword and shouted.

"rush!"

The soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou carried the cloud ladder and rushed up. They crossed the moat, climbed the cloud ladder and rushed into Yangma City. They thought there were not many living people inside, but countless Shatuo soldiers emerged from the pile of bricks and tiles. Some of them were seriously injured, but they still screamed and rushed to the scene, desperately.

Zhou Bing attacked three times in a row, but was beaten back.

Han Tong was furious. He personally carried the knife and the shield and rushed to the front.

The Yanzhou soldiers under his command were all red in their eyes. Who were these men from the yellow earth afraid of? They braved the rain of arrows and rushed into Yangma City, fought hard overnight, killing more than 2,000 Shatuo soldiers. A section of Yangma City in the southwest of Jinyang fell into the hands of Zhou soldiers.

Han Tong commanded his men and horses to set up crossbows in Yangma City and continue to bombard Jinyang.

In addition, he also sent engineers to carry explosives and impact several times.

The people in the city also fought their lives. They monitored day and night. When they found Zhou Bing approaching, they immediately poured down the prepared golden juice.

The hot feces fell on the body, burning the flesh and blood. Even if they were not fatal for the time being, they would be infected by the wound and die of death after returning.

The engineer who was poured on his face turned wild in despair. He picked up the explosive pack, rushed under the city wall, and lit the explosion. After the explosion, the engineer's body remained, and the blue bricks in Jinyang City were blown down to a few pieces, with almost no damage.

...

All other sides struggled to conquer the city, no worse than Han Tong.

After ten days, Yangma City outside Jinyang was completely lost. The army had already rushed to the city, and all the soldiers attacked the city day and night.

The people inside were also desperate, one day, two days, three days, five days... There were fewer and fewer young and old faces on the top of the city, and even healthy women carried weapons and went up to the top of the city.

The Zhou soldiers outside the city were not easy either. These days, there were no less than 10,000 wounded people alone. More than 20 generals were killed in the city.

"The old man is really as heart as iron. I just practice his quality!"

Chai Rong decisively issued an order, and the soldiers who had already prepared had dug the Fen River and rushed to Jinyang. The city walls on the west and south were surrounded by floods, half of Jinyang was soaked in the flood.

"Go and send a letter to Liu Chong and ask him to surrender immediately!"

The messenger went, and within half a day, there was no news.

Chai Rong gritted his teeth and finally issued an order, "Ye Qing, let's do it!"

Ye Hua nodded, and there was no hesitation in his eyes. He was not in charge of the soldiers. Facing the Shatuo people, there was no sympathy. You just wait to enjoy the overwhelming anger of the Great Zhou!

Just above the Fen River, many ships appeared, carrying sealed wooden barrels.

The soldier uncovered the wooden barrel and poured the black liquid inside onto the river surface.

Following the river, these black liquids flowed under the city wall, and some even entered the city through the water gate. This was an action at night, and the defenders in the city did not notice it at all. When they smelled the pungent smell, it was too late!

"Rise the fire!"

Tens of thousands of torches were raised high, illuminating the western city of Jinyang like daytime.

Ye Hua personally directed the troops.

In front of him, there were a thousand bed crossbows in a row!

"emission!"

Thousands of gunpowder tanks flew towards the top of Jinyang City.

The gunpowder exploded in the air, and the hot temperature ignited the tincture oil on the water surface.

In an instant, fires soared into the sky and flames soared.

The thick black smoke covered the eyes of the soldiers guarding the city. They were choked and coughed constantly. The strong smell and burning temperature made them unable to breathe at all.

"shooting!"

Ye Hua had no expression on his face and continued to order.

The Great Zhou, which has gunpowder and tinea oil, has not had many difficulties in overcoming difficulties.

No matter how strong the city is, it cannot withstand the attack of gunpowder. Otherwise, after entering the age of hot weapons, why would no one repair the city walls?

To be ironic, neither the powerful Han and the prosperous Tang dynasties mastered gunpowder technology and could only rely on cavalry to rampage the world. However, the Song Dynasty, which mastered gunpowder, lost its most precious war horse.

Even if there is gunpowder, it can only be used to defend the city, so many people have forgotten that gunpowder is the best attack weapon!

"Go on the trencher!"

The huge catapult was pushed outside Jinyang City, and huge iron bombs hit the top of the city. Compared with the crossbows, the destructive power of these catapults was even more amazing.

The iron ball weighing thirty kilograms was filled with explosives. When it exploded, the air waves were enough to destroy the blue bricks on the city wall.

The solid Jinyang city wall was stripped off layer by layer, revealing its fragile inner body.

“Go on the sand boat!”

Another sharp weapon of siege was taken out.

Releasing water to flood Jinyang is just the first step. With the water, the tactics that Ye Hua can use become extremely rich.

He modified a batch of fishing boats, filled the boat with gunpowder, and followed the water flow, and the boat quickly approached the city wall. There was an iron chisel at the bow of the boat, which could pierce the city wall.

When the ships and the city walls were connected, the crossbows were covered, and the violent explosions were shocking... Fishing boats exploded and gunpowder was used at all costs.

The result is that the tall Jinyang City encountered the biggest threat ever.

Under the constant burning, blisters, and explosions, the city walls cracked.

More floods flowed into the city, and from the cracks, bricks and stones kept falling, smashing into the flood, splashing water. People in the city had to admit that the city walls could not provide them with safe protection.

This was a very fatal discovery, and the tragic and firm morale was shaken.

Liu Chong sat in his palace, which was once the official residence of the Hedong Jiedushi. It was very narrow and cramped and was not suitable for being an imperial palace. Liu Chong had longed for more than once to enter Kaifeng, occupy more land, own a more luxurious capital, revitalize Shatuo's foundation, and rule the world...

Although he also knew it was not very realistic, dreams were the most beautiful, and Liu Chong hoped that miracles would appear.

Unfortunately, what he was waiting for was a catastrophe!

It's been almost six years since my hair, which was originally dark, turned white, with an old face covered with wrinkles and turbid eyes.

The aging body cannot even raise any strength.

He could only sit quietly, waiting for the coming of destruction!

I don’t know how long I sat there, but with a loud bang, Jinyang City finally couldn’t bear the torture of water and fire. The loose bricks and stones began to collapse under the pounding of explosives.

Zhou Bing killed him...

"Your Majesty, go quickly!"

A group of ministers rushed in. They ran to Liu Chong, cried bitterly, and asked His Majesty to leave.

Liu Chong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Although the world is big, where is our place to stay?"

yes!

Where can we stay?

Hedong is over and the Khitan is defeated. Could it be that we surrender to Dangxiang? Do they dare to compete with the Great Zhou?
To be continued...
