Gou Becomes a Boss in the Fairy World
Chapter 1014 Battle with Han Customs (Part 2)
Woo~
The desolate trumpet sound spread throughout the battlefield. The Yan army, which was rushing towards the Hanhaiguan wall despite the rain of arrows and stones, suddenly felt like they had been amnesty and retreated one after another.
As for the few catapults and siege engines that had finally been pushed to the forefront, they were naturally abandoned and then shattered by the rain of stone bombs.
Although the artillery placed on the city wall had stopped attacking at this time, for these Yan troops, the battle they had just experienced was simply a terrifying nightmare.
Even if they can go back alive, they will be haunted by this nightmare for the rest of their lives!
It's really terrible.
Within the first two miles of Hanhaiguan, there were countless corpses of Yan soldiers lying there. Many of them were mutilated. The red blood soaked the soil, and the grass would surely grow vigorously in the coming year.
Correspondingly, there are the remains of dozens of large catapults and siege engines.
These heavy siege weapons were expensive to build, and the Yan army spent a lot of effort to transport them here and assemble them. However, they did not have much effect and were blown to pieces by Han Haijun's artillery.
There were wailings and calls for help on the battlefield, and many injured Yan army soldiers fell in a pool of blood, helplessly begging for their lives.
But what they got were arrows shot down one after another!
The first round of the contest between the two sides ended.
Cheers erupted on the Hanhaiguan wall, and countless Han navy officers raised their weapons high to celebrate the victory they had just won.
Not only did they successfully repel the enemy's attack, but the results were quite brilliant.
The most important thing is that the own loss is very small.
This caused Han Haijun's morale to skyrocket, and when faced with hundreds of thousands of Yan troops, there was no chance of them gathering around him.
Many people have turned their attention to the artillery that has made great achievements.
Without this amazingly powerful new weapon, even if the Yan army could be defeated, they would not have such an outstanding record.
Due to the continuous firing, the seventeen artillery pieces were almost red-hot from the high temperature, and the gunners were using wet cloths to cool down.
The joy of victory filled everyone's face.
Shangguan Wuji, who personally guarded the Guanqiang, sighed: "These artillery can really be regarded as artifacts for the country."
He had seen the scene of artillery test firing before, but the scene of one cannon firing several shells was completely different from the scene of more than a dozen cannons firing at the same time on the real battlefield.
The power of artillery was also fully demonstrated in the battle that just ended!
If Shangguan Wuji originally had some grudge against being forced to swear allegiance to Princess Qingyun, most of his thoughts had dissipated at this moment.
Commander Han began to seriously consider the possibility of assisting Princess Qingyun in ascending to the throne of God!
"These are just guinea pigs."
Wang Chen said calmly: "There will be better ones in the future!"
Because they were cast on a temporary basis, these artillery pieces still have many problems and there are many areas for improvement and improvement.
With the skills of military craftsmen, it will not be a problem to cast stronger artillery in the future.
The cannons then will not only be used to defend the city.
And Wang Chen hasn’t taken out the gun yet!
The Han navy was rejoicing, but the Yan army was in despair.
The atmosphere in the Yan Army's military camp was so gloomy that it almost solidified. Many generals lowered their heads and did not dare to take a breath.
For fear of becoming the target of anger.
In fact, for the huge Yan army, the previous losses were not very large and were completely within the tolerance.
The key is that nearly one-third of the catapults and siege engines were destroyed, and the morale of the Yan army suffered a heavy blow amidst the roar of artillery.
The seventeen cannons mounted on the city wall are extremely powerful. Not only do the shells they fire have a very long range, but even fourth- and fifth-level warriors cannot withstand them. Ordinary soldiers are even more likely to die or be injured when they touch them. There is absolutely no way to deal with them.
And if we don't deal with these powerful weapons, how can we capture Hanguan?
Everyone placed their hopes on the three Martial Lords.
The silver-armored warrior sitting on the commander's seat is none other than Yan Xiaoyun, one of the three great martial lords of Dayan. He is not only the commander-in-chief of the Yan Army this time, but also a member of the Royal Family of Dayan.
Yan Xiaoyun stared at the three large iron pills placed on the ground, his eyes seemed to contain a storm.
This kind of thing, which weighed more than ten kilograms, actually destroyed the array of the Yan Army's elite forwards and shattered dozens of catapults and siege vehicles that the Yan Army had worked hard to transport and assemble.
It also greatly damaged the morale of the Yan army!
"National Division…"
He looked at the elegant man sitting next to him and asked in a deep voice: "Have you heard of this kind of weapon before?"
This elegant man who looked middle-aged, but was actually over seventy years old, was the national master of the Yan State, Ji Shanhe, a sixth-level warrior.
Ji Shanhe's cultivation level is at the bottom among the three great warriors, but he is good at strategy. This time he followed Yan Xiaoyun to attack Hanhaiguan out of necessity. Normally, he would sit in Yandu and strategize.
Ji Shanhe controls Dayan's intelligence organization and has the best information.
"Unheard of!"
In response to Yan Xiaoyun's inquiry, Ji Shanhe replied flatly: "I have never received any information about this weapon. It should be made by Daliang or Han Haijun recently, otherwise there would be no spy information sent back."
Dayan stationed many agents in Daliang, including the Imperial Capital and Hanhai City.
"This is troublesome."
Yan Xiaoyun's face became even more gloomy: "Han Haijun has many craftsmen in its military manufacturing camp, and Han Hai County is rich in iron ore. What I'm worried about is that more and more such weapons will come out!"
Just seventeen cannons were enough to make the Yan army miserable. If the number were increased to dozens or even hundreds, covering the entire wall, the scene of all the cannons firing at once would make the commander-in-chief of the Yan army feel a little nervous just thinking about it. numb.
In fact, he thought a little too seriously, because even if Han Haijun Ying could build so many artillery, there would not be enough gunpowder to display its power.
The raw materials needed to make gunpowder, charcoal and saltpeter, are all good, but the sulfur is not produced in Hanhai County, so you need to search and buy it from other counties.
Most of what Han Haijun used before was made from the raw materials brought by Wang Chen!
Under such circumstances, the Yan army could persist until all the gunpowder was consumed before attacking the city in a large scale.
But Yan Xiaoyun didn't know this. What he was worried about was that if he couldn't capture Hanhaiguan quickly, once reinforcements from the Liang Army were in place, and one or two sixth-level warriors came to help, he wouldn't be able to occupy this place to strangle Dayan. The throat is blocked!
You must know that Daliang apparently has four sixth-level martial masters, one more than Dayan.
The biggest advantage of Dayan at present is that the three great martial masters are gathered here!
The three of them exchanged glances and nodded at the same time.
The longer this war lasts, the more disadvantageous it will be to Dayan, so they must make a desperate move!

The first update is sent.
