The commander stood on the tall siege vehicle and waved the military flag in his hand.
A soldier in the center took a deep breath and lit the gunpowder pot on the trebuchet.
The lead wire started to emit blue smoke, and the people around held their breath, and the triggerman held his breath even more, for fear that if he was not sure, it would explode on his own site, and it would be the end of the calf.
Fortunately, when the lead wire burned to the previously made mark, the triggerman smashed the trigger with a hammer, and the gunpowder can roared and flew towards Wusui City.
Although this kind of gunpowder pot has been practiced many times by crossbowmen, it is the first time for everyone to use it on the real battlefield.
boom!
The gunpowder can flew directly into Wusui City, and then everyone heard a thunder-like sound, followed by angry roars and horrified curses.
A thick smoke slowly rose in the city.
This explosion almost made Chiyu's jaw drop. He could see clearly what it was from upstairs. That black object flew over their heads and fell into the city behind. There was a loud noise. , actually devoured a house.
Around the explosion, a raging fire ignited, and even several soldiers five meters away were blown away, and even two soldiers who approached were killed on the spot, and their bodies were separated.
"Attention, vigilance, be careful of things thrown by the other party..."
"The big crossbow is ready, shoot me to death..."
Chiyu immediately issued an order, and the people of Qin tested one. This was a test bomb, and then there may be countless such things in the future.
Meng Wu didn't give Yan Guo a chance to prepare, and when he saw the success of the test, he immediately shouted: "Command, one wave of gunpowder cans, followed by two waves of kerosene bombs, and then the big crossbows fired again and again!"
"After the strafing, the siege engine came forward and attacked the city..."
The messenger waved down the military flag, and countless crossbowmen holding gunpowder cans immediately put the gunpowder cans in the catapult. Another soldier lit the fuse, and the triggerman raised the sledgehammer.
After a while, the sledgehammer fell at the same time.
A thousand catapults threw gunpowder cans, and countless small black spots roared towards Wusui City.
The scene was so frightening that the soldiers on the tower widened their eyes, and some soldiers even ran away.
Because they have seen the power of the thing that exploded in the city just now, it cannot be countered by manpower.
"Dodge!"
"Hurry up and hide..."
Chiyu saw the powder cans whizzing towards him, and immediately ordered the soldiers to hide, but even hiding was futile.
This is the crushing of technology. This is considered a hot weapon. How can cold weapons fight against it?
bang bang bang...
Countless gunpowder cans fell on the city wall, inside the city, and outside the city, but without exception, they all exploded.
The tall city wall collapsed in an instant, and the soldiers on the city were blown and flew down the city.
General Chiyu hid behind a wall, still buried alive by the bombed-out city buildings.
In front of Qin Jun's eyes, a doomsday scene appeared. Qin Jun himself was terrified and his scalp was numb.
Meng Wu's face was pale, and his heart was trembling. Is this the gunpowder made by Lord Hou?
Is this too powerful?
This is just one wave, if there are two more waves, will there be any living people in Wu Sui City?
But as a general, how can he soften his heart just because the enemy is not as good as himself.
"Fire oil bombs...a wave!"
Finally, Meng Wu issued an order. There were originally two waves, but now it seems that the two waves are a waste.
Then, the kerosene bombs roared towards Wusui City, and one by one the kerosene bombs fell on the tower or in the city, igniting a big fire.
Now there is no need to shoot rockets, because the flames ignited after the gunpowder exploded are enough to ignite the kerosene spilled from the broken kerosene tank.
Wusui City instantly became a sea of flames, and the soldiers on the city tower who were not killed were also ignited by the kerosene, turning into a human-shaped torch.
With just two waves of operations, there were no living people on Wusui City, and the soldiers who hadn't rushed to Wusui City had already fled when they saw this hellish scene.
This is not a war, this is death.
The north gate of Wusui City was opened, and countless soldiers of Yan State abandoned the city and fled.
Originally, this city has become an empty city, and the people in the city have been moved to the territory of Yan State long ago, and now there is nothing to defend. As for Wu Sui City being a strategically important place, it has nothing to do with them, the big soldiers, the generals are all dead On the tower.
Chapter 486 Building the Great Wall for Two Years, Vulnerable to Gunpowder
With gunpowder bombs and kerosene bombs, after an hour, the Qin army didn't even use the big crossbow and the continuous crossbow. They easily boarded the Wusui city tower and planted the black water flag of Qin.
And Chi Yu, the general of the Yan State who was pulled out of the ruins, was also captured alive by the Qin army, tied up and imprisoned in a dungeon in Wusui City.
Taking advantage of the dark night, Meng Wu directly approached the Yishui River, and began to attack the garrison of Yan State opposite Yishui with gunpowder.
The generals guarding the Great Wall of Yan State were terrified, and they started shooting tentatively with continuous crossbows, large crossbows, and trebuchets in the darkness, wasting an unknown amount of arrows.
The commander-in-chief of the Great Wall guards, Ji Pi, is a descendant of the King of Yan family and the son of Ji Zhou. This time, he was ordered by King Dan of Yan to take on the important task of guarding the Great Wall. The Great Wall is the first line of defense, and members of the royal family must be stationed in person.
But now Ji Pi started to panic!
The Qin army actually captured the impregnable Wusui city within an hour?
Wu Sui City was guarded by the most elite soldiers of the Yan Kingdom. They didn't realize how it was captured.
By the time he reacted, the Yan army who fled from Wusui City had already crossed the pontoon bridge on Yishui and destroyed the pontoon bridge.
Since it was dark, they couldn't see the Qin army under the city at all, so they could only shoot blindly. Once Qin army got close to the Great Wall, Qin army had a magic weapon, so they couldn't stop them at all. Artifacts cannot be shot at the Great Wall.
Because the Yan army fired blindly, this also made it impossible for the Qin army to cross Yishui. The range of gunpowder and kerosene bombs was not enough to reach the Great Wall, so Meng Wu could only order to stop the attack temporarily, wait for dawn, and then make plans.
On the other hand, Zhang He and Yang Duanhe led an army of [-] in a big boat, marched along the Yellow River, and finally arrived near the water village when the sky was about to light up.
Catapults and crossbows lined up on the huge treasure ship.
However, the Yan army guarding the water village was still asleep. They never thought that the Qin army would come to attack their water village. In their opinion, fighting on water is the most difficult thing.
Standing on the deck, Zhang He looked at the huge water village in front of him, and immediately issued an order:
"One test bomb, and then fifty trebuchets first threw three waves of kerosene bombs."
"Then add gunpowder until the water village is flattened."
Yang Duanhe immediately ordered: "Immediately execute the order, one test bomb, three waves of kerosene bombs, and don't stop before the kerosene bombs flatten the water village."
On the first treasure ship, the test archers immediately began to test bombs.
It's just that there was a problem with the first shot, and it shot through the water village, went in from this side, fell into the water from the other side, and fell into the water with a bang.
The crossbowman who was trying the bomb was immediately flushed. He is the pacesetter in their thousand-man team, an example for everyone to learn from. He was once awarded a knighthood because of his accurate target shooting, but today he lost the chain.
"General, please give me another chance. I am willing to use my life to guarantee that I will definitely be able to hit the target this time."
However, a commanding veteran next to him had already calculated the distance, and shouted: "No need, it's too late, shoot blindly..."
Because of this mistake, the guard soldiers on the water village may have been awakened, so he decisively issued a military order.
Whoosh...
Fifty trebuchets threw fifty kerosene tanks, some hit the buildings on the water village and shattered all over the place, some directly smashed into the aisle on the water village, and some fell into the water...
But that's enough.
The water village is a wooden structure, once poured with kerosene, half of it can be burned immediately.
After a wave of shooting, the soldiers on the water village panicked and yelled.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack..."
Then all the soldiers of the Yan State took up their weapons, ran out of the room in the water village, bent their bows and shot arrows, and the soldiers on the Great Wall on both sides also quickly boarded the Great Wall and began to shoot at the ships of the Qin Army.
"With rockets, theirs are wooden ships, with rockets..."
The generals on the Great Wall cursed, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to put on rockets and shoot at the Qin army. However, only the soldiers and generals on the water village knew that using rockets was equivalent to suicide!
Their country of Yan also has kerosene, but it is too little to be used on a large scale on the battlefield.
Damn you, are you using rockets to send me to heaven?
Whizzing……
……
Three waves of kerosene bombs passed by, and the soldiers on the Great Wall also started shooting rockets at the treasure ship of the Qin army.
It's just that the Great Wall is too far away from the treasure ship, and the treasure ship cannot be shot at all. Even if one is finally shot, it still can't burn.
Because Zhang He knew a long time ago that if the wooden boat encounters a rocket, it will be troublesome. The boat will be destroyed and people will die.
So on the treasure ship, a lot of water was poured, and the deck was still wrapped with iron plates.
"Gunpowder bullets, unlimited projection."
Next, fifty trebuchets passed by in one wave, directly destroying the water village. Countless Yan troops on the water village were killed, and those who survived jumped into the water, drowned or fell into the water. Gunpowder bombs in the water killed.
But gunpowder bombs are still constantly projecting towards the water village...
The gunpowder canisters exploded one by one, and sparks splashed everywhere, igniting the wood on the water village, and the fire engulfed the entire water village in an instant.
Yan Jun on the Great Wall was dumbfounded.
"What is this thing? It's so powerful, could it be Tianlei? The people of Qin invited gods to help them?"
"This is thunder, definitely thunder..."
"Run, Qin Jun has gods to help him."
……
The main general of the Yan army was stunned on the tower, and the Qin army destroyed the water village they had built for half a year in two strokes like this?
How is this fight going?
What the hell!
The ignorant soldiers looked at the ignorant general, and then they looked at the tall water village in front of them.
In a quarter of an hour, it turned into a sea of flames, then turned into ruins, and gradually disappeared on the Yellow River. The buildings on the water village were also washed away by the water of the Yellow River.
"General, we are not opponents. Your Majesty has transferred all the elites away..."
"General, if we don't surrender quickly, Qin Jun will ask the gods to kill us."
At this moment, the Qin army on the treasure ship let out an overwhelming roar.
"Kill, kill, kill..."
"Kill all the Yan army, don't take prisoners..."
When the general and the soldiers on the Great Wall heard this, the general took a deep breath, and if he didn't run away, it would be too late, and there were only a few thousand of them, and they were still standing still.
"Brothers, let's retreat strategically, retreat to the rear, wait for reinforcements, and fight to the death with the Qin army."
"Run!"
For a while, more than 2000 soldiers on the Great Wall turned around and fled down the Great Wall decisively. They even lost their weapons, fearing that the weapons would hurt themselves, and then they could not run.
Seeing this scene, Zhang He immediately ordered the warship ahead and shouted: "Rush over..."
"General Yang Duanhe, you lead ten treasure ships and three thousand cavalry to continue eastward along the Yellow River, and then land at the mouth of the river to smooth out the deployment of the Yan army along the coast and prepare for the landing of the navy."
"The last general takes orders."
"The general led the rest of the fleet, went up the Juma River, entered the hinterland of Dukang, cut off the supplies and reinforcements of the Yan army, and made the Great Wall, which they are proud of, a decoration. General Mengwu should have captured Wusui City .”
Chapter 487 Yandan on the roller coaster, bad news one after another
The two big ships moved separately.
The sky was already bright, and Zhang He led more than 7 Qin elites into the hinterland of Dukang Land and began to land.
After dawn, General Meng Wu used kerosene bombs and gunpowder bombs to bombard the Yan army on the opposite side of the Yishui River.
After a wave, the Yan army directly withdrew to the Great Wall.
Qin Jun began to build pontoon bridges. Two hours later, fifteen pontoon bridges were built on Yishui. Qin Jun directly crossed Yishui and set up trebuchets and crossbows at the foot of the Great Wall.
The two sides started shooting.
