Chapter 422 Battle of Runan(1/2)
Sima Yan was young and energetic, and he had a family feud, so he was very eager to fight. However, in the eyes of the Han soldiers, he was a little uncomfortable.
Liu Tan liked this young general a little. He laughed loudly and said: "Okay, then I will give the general five thousand elites.
The general is responsible for the main attack, and I will suppress the general with artillery fire."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Sima Yan was overjoyed.
Compared with his father Sima Zhao, Sima Yan has not been joining the Han camp for a long time, only two or three months now.
However, in the past two or three months, Sima Yan saw a different Han army.
Let’s talk about this King of Qin. Although he is very young and not much older than Sima Yan, he is a very polite prince.
Starting a war at this time was a casual comment, but the King of Qin actually agreed to it without caring that he was a general who had just surrendered to the Han Dynasty.
"Yan'er, be careful!" Sima Zhao warned.
"Don't worry, father!" Sima Yan responded and immediately rode out into battle. King Qin Liu Tan on the side also drew his sword from his waist and shouted loudly: "Fire!"
Bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
In an instant, there were explosions all over the city of Runan. Although before that, the defenders of Runan had also heard that the Han army now had the King of Han artillery, but they only heard about it.
At this moment, the Han army fired artillery shells from a thousand steps away, but they landed very accurately on the top of the city. Three of the artillery shells destroyed the arrow tower, and the remaining several artillery shells fell directly on the city wall. The nearby soldiers were instantly blown up.
They either flew out of the city or flew into the city, even if they didn't fly out of the city,
When it falls again,
I also fell like shit.
"Prefect!"
"Prefect!"
Above the city gate, two young generals helped a middle-aged man up. This middle-aged man was pale and trembling all over.
This man's name is Tian Pengzu, the son of General Cao Wei Zhenwei Tian Yu. He has been fighting with his father all year round, and has made some military exploits. Two years ago, he was ordered to guard Runan City.
Bang!
There was another explosion, and Tian Pengzu was shocked again just as he stood up.
"Prefect!"
The soldiers around him were a little panicked. They had never encountered such a powerful weapon. After all, Tian Pengzu was a general who had participated in many battles. As the Han army continued to fire cannonballs, he quickly calmed down.
p>
"Don't panic!" Tian Pengzu shouted.
"Immediately use shields to defend, and when the Han army rushes over, use thunder cannons to fight back!"
Tian Pengzu saw thousands of Han soldiers and horses, carrying ladders and pushing carts, rushing towards the city gate.
Although the Han army's Hanwang artillery was extremely powerful,
But the density of its artillery fire is not high.
Almost ten shells each time.
But Runan City is very wide.
Therefore, even though the Han army's artillery fire was fierce, the entire city was not hit.
Tian Pengzu was lucky. Although Runan City was also an important border town, it was not the main city attacked by the Han army this time, so the Han army's artillery fire was not as fierce as Hongnong.
Below the city!
"Rush!"
"Rush over!"
Sima Yan, who was running at full speed, shouted loudly: "Hurry to the city!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Five thousand Han troops, like wolves and tigers, pounced on the Runan city gate.
"Get ready!"
Tian Pengzu was dodging possible falling shells while calmly commanding the soldiers. He was watching the distance of the charging Han army. When the Han army's front troops rushed to two or three hundred steps away from the city, he suddenly shouted: "Let go!"
"Let it go!"
"Hurry up!"
The thunder cannons that had been prepared long ago shot out into the sky immediately.
Bang bang, bang bang bang!
There are a relatively large number of thunder cannons. Runan City has more than 80 three-bow crossbows. As for thunder cannons and rocket launchers, several major workshops in Runan City have not stopped production these days because the Han army is outside the city. Tian Pengzu
Very clear.
Sooner or later, the Han army will attack the city.
Thunderbolt cannons fell like raindrops, exploding continuously in the running Han army formation.
Compared with the blasting noise of the Hanwang Cannon, the Thunderbolt Cannon is much smaller, but it is stronger in numbers. Under this round of bombardment, the Han army also suffered a big blow.
"Run!"
"Rush over!"
Sima Yan was not frightened by the thunder cannon and still moved forward bravely. The soldiers were already frightened, but seeing the general still moving forward desperately, they all followed suit and charged forward desperately.
"Run!"
"Run!"
The Han soldiers quickly dispersed in all directions to avoid the falling thunderbolt cannons.
In front of the rear army formation.
"Bazooka!" Liu Tan shouted loudly.
The Wei army used thunder cannons, which caused a lot of trouble for the Han army's siege troops, and of course Liu Tan could see it.
As soon as Liu Chan finished speaking, dozens of rocket launchers pushed forward.
Although the ten Hanwang artillery firepower is fierce, the area covered is still limited. If Liu Tan wants to quickly attack Runan City, he needs to use firepower to suppress the Wei army at the head of the city.
"Your Highness!" Sima Zhao said anxiously: "The enemy's thunderbolt cannons are too dense, and our army has too few people attacking the city." After saying this, he handed over to Liu Tanyi and said, "I will ask for orders to lead the army to attack the city."
Sima Zhao is worried about his son.
After all, Sima Yan is too young and has not spent much time on the battlefield before.
"Yes!" Liu Tan said: "I will also give the general five thousand elites!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Sima Zhao responded, and immediately rushed towards Runan City with five thousand soldiers.
City Head——
Tian Pengzu was very worried. The last time the Han army attacked the city, after a thunderbolt attack, the Han army was quickly pushed back.
But today, the casualties caused by thunderbolt artillery to the Han army were still considerable, but not a single soldier was seen retreating. Instead, they moved forward bravely.
"Keep cumming!"
"Don't stop!"
"Don't stop!"
Tian Pengzu kept shouting loudly, and at the same time asked the archers to be ready at all times, because the leading troops of the Han army had already arrived at the moat.
"Quick!"
"Hurry over!"
Sima Yan came to the moat and kept urging the soldiers to cross the river. The river was not very wide, about two or three feet, and he could quickly cross it by climbing up the ladder.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Hurry up and shoot the arrow!"
The Wei troops on the city braved the fire from the Han king's artillery and kept firing arrows at the bottom of the city.
The moat is the last line of defense for the city. Once the enemy crosses the river, they can climb the city via ladders.
"Cut it!"
Several Han soldiers who rushed across the moat quickly ran to the bottom of the city gate. They used their shields to block the arrows fired from the city, and then put a long ladder on the suspension bridge.
"Shoot!"
"Cum!"
The Wei army above the city gate naturally saw the Han army's intentions. A middle-aged general shouted sternly: "Shoot them to death and never let them cut down the suspension bridge!"
