Become a feudal king from today

"This letter must be dropped just right. Read"

After telling the generals his plan.

Zhao Xu returned to his camp and wrote a letter.

Then he handed the letter to Tan Ma and ordered him to send it to Ma's army.

However, this letter was not really meant to be sent to Ma Jin, but to fall into the hands of the Xiliang people.

In response, Tanma stuffed the letter into his arms and left.

Then, he sent other detective horses to detect the location of this Xiliang army.

According to the news sent back from Tanma.

Most of the Xiliang army was infantry, with only more than a thousand cavalry, and its marching speed was very slow.

Even if we travel day and night, it still takes more than a day to get here.

He had plenty of time to prepare.

"Boom..." Just as he watched Tan Ma leave.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard, and the sound of heavy objects falling into the water was heard.

He turned around and saw that the wall on the left side of the north side of Jincheng had completely collapsed.

Many of the soil inside the city wall and the green bricks on the outside fell into the moat in front.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xu was overjoyed.

Upon seeing this, Chang Wei and other generals gathered around him with joy on their faces, waiting for his order to attack.

"It's been five or six days since the bombardment. I don't know how much wasted shells, but finally collapsed." Guan Tong stamped his feet happily.

Chang Wei slapped Qin Shan on the shoulder, and Qin Shan almost sat on the ground.

"What are you waiting for? Attack the city!" Zhao Xu shouted, "There is no need to hide the flintlock guns, and there is no need to save the artillery shells. Take Jincheng!"

"Yes, Your Highness." The generals clasped their fists heavily.

Returning to their respective armies, they immediately arranged the arrangements as previewed on the sand table.

The collapsed wall fell into the river, filling half of the river.

Chang Wei mobilized soldiers in heavy armor to stand on the city wall. The Xiliang soldiers poured the ladder into the debris of the city wall.

At the same time, soldiers holding flintlock rifles, like they did in Xincheng, fired bullets at the city head with the cooperation of artillery, covering the heavy infantry crossing the river.

This was the first time that Xiliang soldiers in Jincheng saw flintlock guns.

To escape the artillery fire, some Xiliang archers took bows and arrows to shoot at the royal soldiers holding flintlock guns.

"Whoosh" the bow and arrow flew towards the royal soldier, hitting the scales on the chest of the royal soldier.

The soldier's body only shook slightly and he felt a burst of pain.

At the same time, the palace soldiers also pulled the triggers in their hands.

"Bang bang bang..." intensive flintlock sounds rang out.

Buckshot flew towards the city like raindrops.

Frightened by the gunshots and fire, the Xiliang archers shook involuntarily.

But before they could react they were hit by lead bullets.

The Xiliang archers whose heads were exposed fell down one after another.

At present, even excluding the fusiliers who were injured and died, there are still more than 20,000 fusiliers in the royal army.

They were all archers and could not take advantage of the Xiliang archers who hit them. After three rounds of shooting, they were suppressed and unable to raise their heads.

This prevented the Xiliang garrison from organizing an effective counterattack on the city wall.

At this moment, heavy infantrymen wearing plate armor crossed over from the ladder.

"Kill!" With roars of anger, they climbed up the collapsed gap.

At this time, the Xiliang soldiers in Jincheng also stepped into the gap, and the two sides fought together.

Inside the city.

Murong Wuji was discussing with the generals strategies to prevent King Yan's troops from attacking the city.

Suddenly a loud bang was heard.

Then I heard a "bang bang bang" sound that was much lighter than the artillery, like a firecracker.

When he looked at the source of the sound, his expression changed drastically.

A section of the city wall five to six meters wide at the north gate collapsed.

"Seal the gap immediately and don't let a single Yanzhou soldier in." Murong Wuji's forehead showed slight beads of sweat.

The general of Xiliang was frightened, but he still followed the order and summoned his soldiers to rush to the north gate.

Murong Wuji put on his armor and headed towards the north gate with the generals.

Once there is captured, Jincheng will fall.

"kill!"

Under the leadership of the Xiliang generals, a large number of Xiliang infantry rushed towards the gap, and the overwhelming number of soldiers continued to replace the Xiliang soldiers who were killed in the gap.

For a while, soldiers from both sides were in a stalemate.

"Go and get the lime firecrackers from the camp."

Outside the city, seeing that the heavy infantry was still unable to break into Jincheng, Chang Wei said to a general beside him.

After receiving Chang Wei's order, the general left with a group of soldiers.

Not long after, wooden boxes were carried over one by one.

On a vast battlefield, this firecracker does not work well.

So it was not used when ambushing Geely.

Now that Xiliang soldiers are crowded behind the city wall, it is time to use this.

"Throw it inside." Chang Wei pinched his waist and kept his eyes on the battle ahead.

The soldiers carried the box across the moat.

Behind the heavy infantry, firecrackers were lit and thrown over the city wall.

The firecrackers exploded thirty meters away from the city wall, sending out white smoke among the Xiliang army.

Then firecrackers were thrown in one after another.

Lime powder gradually spreads at a distance of twenty or thirty meters.

Under the shock wave of the explosion, lime powder spread more quickly into the eyes of the Xiliang soldiers.

Rushing out of the smoke, the Xiliang soldiers gradually felt discomfort in their eyes and stopped.

More and more Xiliang soldiers stopped, and the Xiliang soldiers behind were blocked and could no longer climb the city wall.

The Xiliang soldiers whose eyes were burned by lime powder even lost their fighting ability.

The Xiliang soldiers fighting in the gap suddenly lost their support and were immediately beaten back by the royal heavy infantry.

It didn't take long for the heavy infantry to cross the gap and enter the city.

"Each small flag is a team, go!"

Seeing the heavy infantry rushing into the city, Chang Wei immediately asked the flintlock soldiers to follow.

The heavy infantry is a strong shield, but the flintlock is faster to kill the enemy.

"Follow me!"

After receiving the order, Qin Shan immediately ordered his soldiers.

The small flag general shouted loudly, and led his fifty soldiers to climb up the city wall behind the heavy infantry.

After crossing the city wall, they no longer followed the heavy infantry.

Instead, they moved to one side, and the fifty people quickly formed a small horizontal team.

Attacked forward with a small horizontal team.

As they marched, such flintlock teams continued to pour in.

"Bang bang bang..."

Encountering the Xiliang soldiers who reinforced the north gate, the flintlock soldiers pulled the trigger.

The first row of soldiers tilted the bullets out, and the second row of soldiers stepped forward to shoot again, followed by the third row.

The Xiliang soldiers who rushed over kept falling under the muzzle.

As the number of flintlock soldiers increased, the firepower became stronger and stronger.

The Xiliang soldiers, who had tasted the bitterness of this weapon on the city wall, encountered this strange weapon again.

The huge casualties soon made the Xiliang soldiers dare not continue to charge.

For them, this was not a battle, but a massacre.

With the firepower support of the flintlock soldiers, the heavy infantry quickly gained a foothold behind the city wall.

They rushed into the doorway and lifted the sandbags in the doorway one by one.

Half an hour later, the sandbags in their doorway were cleared out.

The soldiers immediately opened the city gate and lowered the drawbridge.

"Kill!"

At the moment when the drawbridge was across the moat, more soldiers from the palace rushed into Jincheng amid shouts of killing.
