Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Gai Suwen watched the bomb fly into the sky, draw a parabola, and land in Liaodong City.

The speed of the slingshot is not fast, and the bomb is large enough to be clearly seen.

Gai Suwen watched the bomb fall to the ground.

boom!
A bomb fell on the city wall and exploded.

There were pieces of porcelain inside the bomb, which flew out the instant it exploded, penetrating the soldier's body.

Gai Suwen's ears buzzed from the loud noise.

Only then did Quan Nan realize how terrifying the Tang army was.

The city is full of feathered arrows, and these arrows are dry.

The bomb fell in the middle and exploded, igniting a raging fire.

Not many bombs were thrown at once, but they had never seen anything like it, and fear was running high.

After several major defeats, the soldiers were afraid of the Tang army.

As soon as the bomb started, the soldiers defending the city began to panic and howl.

Gai Suwen drew his sword and cursed: "Don't panic, shoot the arrow."

The soldiers hurriedly picked up the crossbow and started shooting.

But the range of these crossbows could not reach the Datang army at all.

Li Shimin saw the Goguryeo army shooting crossbow arrows indiscriminately from the binoculars under the city.

"I'm in a hurry to go to the doctor, this crossbow can't reach us at all."

Li Shimin said.

Li Jing saw through the binoculars that arrows were raining down on the city.

"Your Majesty, if we attack by force, we will die thousands of people in this wave."

Li Jing said.

Goguryeo and Datang were enemies, and they also tried their best to learn technology from Datang, especially armament production technology.

Their ballistas are not bad at all.

"Luckily there was a giant slingshot to throw the bomb over there."

Chai Shao said happily.

The slingshot is very laborious. After 5 times, the players will change players and take turns pulling the bow.

Li Shimin enjoyed watching it, but it felt too slow.

There were more cannons last time, enough for them to drink a pot at a time.

Ten slingshots this time, ten bombs each time, always felt too little.

"Old Chen, is there any more? Ten is too little."

Li Shimin asked.

Old Chen said: "Your Majesty, don't be too greedy. Take a look at the city of Liaodong and see how the fire in the city has turned."

"We threw all these bombs there, and it is estimated that we can almost attack the city."

The flames in Liaodong City were soaring into the sky, and the soldiers wailed.

The feather arrows hoarded in the city became a scourge and caught fire.

Although Liaodong City is large, there are hundreds of thousands of troops crowded together, as well as war horses.

You can imagine how crowded it was.

When the fire broke out, they had nowhere to go.

On the city wall, Gai Suwen looked at the fire in the city, but there was nothing he could do.

"Father, go out and fight to the death."

Izumi shouted.

Being pressed to the ground and beaten by the Tang army like this, but I have no strength to fight back, this feeling is really useless.

Gai Suwen said: "Going out is also death."

Shenjiying is waiting below, it doesn't matter how many you go.

Quan Nan shouted: "Don't you just watch him being burned to death?"

Gai Suwen looked back at Li Shimin helplessly.

At this moment, a bomb flew towards Gai Suwen.

"No, run away."

Gai Suwen dragged Quan Nanchan and ran wildly.

the bomb landed
boom!
The place where Gai Suwen was standing just now was blown to pieces, and the wall next to him collapsed.

When Quan Nanchan looked back, he was frightened and terrified, feeling that he was not fighting a war with a human, but a war with heavenly soldiers.

The soldiers in the city are all living people, they cannot wait to die.

The east and north gates were opened, the cavalry fled first, followed by the infantry, and Liaodong City began to retreat.

Gai Suwen cursed: "Those who run away, behead!"

But it couldn't be stopped, soldiers poured out from the city gate.

The soldiers on the wall saw the others fleeing and followed them.

The crossbow on the wall is gone.

Li Shimin saw it clearly, and said with a smile: "Goguryeo's fighting spirit is gone, and the city wall can be blasted."

Lao Chen directed the soldiers to carry the explosive packs.

Stacked under the city wall.

The fuse was lit, and the soldier ran back.

Li Jing watched the lead wire burn out with a telescope, and then covered his ears.

boom!
Hundreds of catties of explosives were piled up together, and the city wall was bombed down.

"It only opened a small hole. Liaodong City is stronger than Anshi City?"

Li Shimin said strangely.

The same amount of explosives blasted An Shicheng a big hole last time.

This time it was just a small hole.

Li Jing said: "Gai Suwen has been prepared for a long time, and specially strengthened the city wall."

Old Chen said: "The gunpowder made in Youzhou City is not as good as the one in Sujiazhuang, and its power is lower."

"Just blow it up with a slingshot."

Lao Chen commanded the slingshot, probably aiming at the hole opened by the blast.

The bombs kept falling, the city walls continued to collapse, and the openings were getting bigger and bigger.

"Okay."

Old Chen said.

The slingshots stopped throwing bombs, the infantry moved forward with iron shields, and the gunners of the Shenji Battalion followed.

Lao Chen and Chen Yuan directed the Shenji Battalion to move forward.

Xue Rengui led the cavalry to support him.

The siege began.

When the city wall was blown away, Gai Suwen knew that the situation was over.

The Shenji Battalion is overwhelming, their army is no match at all.

"Father."

It was the first time he encountered such a ruthless Datang Army, and Izumi was shocked.

Gai Suwen looked up to the sky and sighed, "Withdraw!"

After riding the horse, Gai Suwen led Quan Nan out of the east gate and fled southeast.

Li Shimin led soldiers and horses into the city, which was still burning.

It was impossible to fight the fire. Millions of arrows burned together, and the fire was too big.

By the time the feather arrows were burned out, it was almost dark.

Only a few houses were saved, the rest were burned to the ground.

Opening the south city gate, Su Yu's carriage entered the city.

Get out of the car and see the mess everywhere.

"It's a pity, so many arrows."

Li Jing said regretfully.

Su Yu smiled and said, "It happens that there is a charcoal fire, let's have a barbecue to celebrate."

Xu Shiji smiled and said, "What the son-in-law said is reasonable, I agree."

Li Shimin was not in the mood.

"We broke Liaodong City, but did not wipe out the enemy army. It seems that there is still a big battle in Pingcheng."

Li Shimin originally wanted to encircle and wipe out Gai Suwen in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that the only choice is to fight in Pingcheng.

"The emperor is relieved, there is a son-in-law here, but it is just to let him live for two more days."

Li Jing said.

Li Shimin said with a smile: "That's right, what about Cheng Zhijie? Let him come over to roast chicken wings, his skills are better than the son-in-law's."

He said this, as if he disliked Su Yu.

Su Yu didn't bother to talk to him.

"Where is Xue Rengui?"

Su Yu asked Lao Chen.

"It seems... to chase someone."

Old Chen said.

Li Zhi said worriedly: "Last time, General Xue and Gai Suwen suffered a loss in a duel. He is not convinced."

"I guess he went after Gai Suwen."

Last time, Xue Rengui was beheaded by Gai Suwen.

The result of the contest should be counted as Gai Suwen's victory.

Xue Rengui was naturally unconvinced.

Li Shimin said: "Gai Suwen is very skilled in martial arts, no one is his opponent except you."

"Xue Rengui is chasing and killing alone, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."

What he meant was whether Su Yu could help.

Su Yu smiled and said, "No need, Xue Rengui can't kill Gai Suwen, and Gai Suwen can't kill Xue Rengui either."

"I'll be back later."

Li Shimin felt that this made sense.

"Cheng Zhijie, come here to grill chicken wings."

Li Shimin finally saw Cheng Yaojin come in with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

Cheng Yaojin murmured in his heart: I am already like this, and I still bake chicken wings.

"I'm coming."

Cheng Yaojin ran over.
