Chapter 117 Cruel
When the cannon sounded, Yang Yichuan knew that the war had already begun. Although Yang Yichuan had full confidence in the cannon and Lin Tu, he still couldn't help but feel uneasy.This is not a play, but a real war. After it is over, the outside of Xihe City must be a purgatory on earth.

Yang Yichuan couldn't bear it, so he didn't look at it or think about it at all.

The Xiao family siblings originally planned to be on the city wall, but it is not very useful to be on the city wall now, so it is better to stay below.Wait until they are needed, such as when leading troops out of the city to chase the Northern Plains people.Or when the people of Beiyuan were about to threaten the city gates in the other three directions, Xiao Muxue and Xiao Muyuan would be needed at this time.

The second round of shells landed, and a few stones from the catapult also flew out, flying towards Xihe City.Although the catapult is not very accurate, it is more powerful. As long as it lands in an area with people and houses, it will cause extensive damage.

A total of 6 stones flew over, three landed outside the city, and one hit the city wall, which also made people feel a little vibration.There were two more that caused damage to Xihe City and landed on the city wall.However, the soldiers on the city wall dodged in time, and the damage was not too great.

However, this round of shells damaged another six or seven catapults, not only the catapults, but also the people in the northern plains near the catapults.

Although the Beiyuan people sent 3 troops this time, more than three times the number of soldiers in Xihe City, if this continues, it may not be easy.

"It hasn't been long, and we have already suffered hundreds of casualties, while Xihe City has only injured dozens of people. Attacking the city with ten times the force, with this group of Xiao's army in Xihe City, there may be 3 people Not necessarily enough."

Mo Li might underestimate the city guards of Xihe City because of what happened last year, but Mo Li would never underestimate the Xiao Family Army.The siege was originally a victory based on the number of people. Now that Mo Li has been observing for so long, he can also see that the city guards on the north gate must have more than 3000 people.

"It is estimated that there are about 5000 soldiers on the north gate, and they dare not give up on the other three gates."

The strength of Xihe City exceeded Mo Li's estimation. He first estimated that even if Xihe City had about 6000 people, he could take Xihe City relatively easily.But now there are 5000 people in the north city gate alone, and there are such magical weapons.

No matter what, Mo Li still intends to give it a try, first to see if the guarding force of Xihe City is strong.In fact, it was not his decision to come to Xihe City, but the order of the royal court, which meant that Mo Li could ask more people to come to Xihe City.

Mo Li can completely figure out the reality and real strength of Xihe City, and then bring more troops until Xihe City is broken.Xihe City is of great significance for this strategic purpose.The purpose this time is to go to Dingsha City.Once Xihe City is broken, the victory of Dingsha City can be established.

The defeat of Xihe City and Dingsha City meant that the west of the West Wind Mountain Range, which is now Xihe Prefecture, would become a racetrack for the people of Beiyuan for a long time.Unless the Dawei dynasty spends a lot of money to emigrate and garrison and rebuild the defense line.

But all of this takes time. During this time, people from Beiyuan can earn too much from Xihe Prefecture.It is even possible to negotiate with the Dawei Dynasty to get enough benefits so that the Dawei Dynasty can buy back Xihe Prefecture.

"Master Molly, the noise is too loud, and the horses seem a little frightened."

"Block your ears, let the catapult throw another round of stones, and let the vanguard battalion charge over and directly attack the city."

Mo Li wouldn't feel sorry for how many people died, as long as he could break through the city, then all the credit would be his own.Now it is necessary to find out the trump cards of Xihe City and find out the specific strength of Xihe City, so as to facilitate subsequent assistance.

Once Molly figured out these things, he would immediately apply for a large number of reinforcements. When the army arrived, Xihe City would naturally be no problem.The people in Xihe City didn't know that the Beiyuan people would even send more people here, but they just thought that there were only 3 troops.

After the artillery was prepared for a while, it naturally continued to fire, first smashing the catapults.This weapon is still very lethal.Without the catapult, the artillery can have a long-range advantage, and it can kill many people in the northern plains.

It was another round of confrontation between artillery and catapults. The catapults were destroyed in sevens and eighties, and there were still three or four left, all of which were a little damaged and could not play much role. The fourth round of artillery hit it, and all the catapults became waste.

But before the fourth round of artillery was fired, the Beiyuan army made a new move, and the Beiyuan people actually sent a large army to attack the city.With such a large group of people, if not half, there should be a third, close to 1 people.

Lin Tu's binoculars could see very clearly that there were infantry, and of course cavalry, rushing towards the city wall, but the distance was not as close as imagined.Within this distance, Xihecheng will naturally not sit still.

"Continue to fire the artillery, and half of the artillery is aimed at the catapult, destroying the catapult. The remaining artillery is fired at the vanguard of the Northern Plains people, and fired at crowded places."

The range of the artillery is long, but when they get close, the artillery is not so applicable.After that, he could only wait for someone to get closer, and then use a sophisticated crossbow to kill the enemy.Now, while the artillery can still be used, let the artillery play its maximum value.

The artillery has finally completed the task of destroying the catapults. It is not required to smash them into pieces, but at least it is not so easy to repair these catapults.

Several shells landed among the crowd in the vanguard battalion. In an instant, people were turned on their backs, their bodies were torn apart, and the scene of blood and flesh flying everywhere appeared.At this moment, the battlefield is developing towards the direction of purgatory on earth.

"Master Molly, we have already suffered heavy damage before we entered the range of the bow and arrow."

"Let them keep going, don't stop, send another 5000 up."

If there were 5000 more people, it would be half of the troops, but the people around Mo Li did not dare to disobey Mo Li's order.

"The artillery fires freely, and hits the enemies within the range. Once it is close and the artillery is inconvenient, let him come over."

"All archers, get ready."

The soldiers standing inside the city wall had already set their arrows on strings. As soon as the distance was reached, as long as Lin Tu gave an order, these people would come to the city wall and start shooting arrows.This is Xihe City's second line of defense, raining arrows all over the sky.

However, under the offensive of the artillery, the Beiyuan people could be said to have suffered heavy casualties. A single shell could kill at least a dozen people, and possibly dozens more.

This is the cruelty of war. Lin Tu has seen it before, but now he can use artillery to reduce his own casualties.To be cruel to the enemy is to protect yourself. In this cruel battlefield, if you are not cruel to the enemy, you can only wait for the enemy to treat you cruelly.

Lin Tu would rather raise the butcher's knife, or fire a cannon.
