Chapter 1321 Ke Lingzhou

The explosion alarmed Liu Shiheng who was having lunch. Hearing the sound of the gun, Liu Shiheng immediately took up the magic weapon and said: "Everyone, bayonet, there is something going on in Xizao Bay!"

The team reacted very quickly. By the time Liu Shiheng arrived at Xizaowan as soon as possible, they were fighting, shouting, shooting, and the sound of explosions had already become chaotic.

Liu Shiheng held the copper whistle in his mouth and blew it suddenly.

The sharp whistle sounded several short rhythms, and the Song soldiers in front, except those who were still fighting with the Xia people, suddenly fell down.

"Bang bang bang..." The volley of guns rang out, knocking down the Xia people who had just been shouting and fighting.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Bang bang bang..."

Bullets roared in the air, mercilessly taking away the lives of the Xia people who broke into the Song Army's vehicle formation.

Likewise, it also includes those New Army soldiers who fought to the point of selflessness with the Xia people.

After firing five rounds, there was no one standing on the protruding river bend. Liu Shiheng changed his magazine, rushed behind an overturned van, took out two thunderbolts and threw them out.

More and more new army soldiers rushed to the gap and began to throw thunderbolts.

The situation was gradually restored by the new army.

The cavalry led by Zhong Zhen also arrived. The cavalry, which had not shown its strength until now, began to clear out the fleeing Xia army in this area.

The Fulu cannon began to show its power, blasting wildly at the jujube forest opposite.

By the time Su You and Gao Zunyu arrived here, the fighting had ceased and the vehicle array at the salient had been reassembled.

The jujube trees on the other side of the river were filled with corpses of Xia people.

The battlefield was in a mess, and the soldiers were busy giving first aid to the injured Pao Ze.

More than a hundred white sheets cover the New Army soldiers who died here.

Su You's eyes suddenly turned red, and Gao Zunyu patted him on the shoulder: "Mingrun, Ci is not a soldier, you need to calm down at this time."

Su You took a deep breath: "The enemy is becoming more and more cunning."

"Originally, I wanted to hold off the enemy as much as possible and give Zhongwu some time to make arrangements. But now it seems that the longer the delay goes on, the greater the variables will become."

"Break the embankment, separate the enemy forces first, wait for Zhong Wu to arrive, let him and Su Lie use Hunduo, and slowly advance in separate areas to eliminate them."

"Let's turn around and attack Lingzhou!"

The Huntuo and pine trees brought down from Lanzhou have been piled at the mouth of the gorge these days. In just one day, Liang Lingtong, who was guarding Lingzhou, discovered that countless cowhide rafts were floating on the moat outside Lingzhou City.

Using cowhide rafts and pine wood, five pontoon bridges were built outside Lingzhou City overnight.

Lingzhou was surrounded by shrubs, and Liang Lingtong himself only had bows and arrows as his tools. Where did the Song people get the big pine trees?!

He had thought about the Song people's method of siege countless times, but never thought that the Song people could build a bridge on the moat.

However, something even more incredible happened to him.

Outside the city, in the middle of the Song people's camp, a huge thing rose up.

A super huge Kongming lantern, with a basket hanging at the bottom and surrounded by sandbags, was carrying a few gray-robed sergeants carrying some weird equipment, and was lifted high into the sky by the Kongming lantern.

Under the Kongming Lantern, a thick rope was connected to a large winch in the camp. Liang Lingtong watched helplessly as the basket rose to the level of the city head. The sergeant above held a strange cylinder to his eyes.

Liang Lingtong let out a strange scream in fright, rolled and crawled down the tower, and ran towards the water gate of Lingzhou City.

The Xia people on the top of the city fired crossbows in vain at the huge monster, but the distance was too far and the crossbow arrows fell one after another.

The big furnace in the basket blew out flames intermittently, rising to a height as high as three Lingzhou city walls, and then stopped.

Soon, the sketch of Lingzhou City and the bombardment parameters were clamped on the iron clips and slipped from the string connected to the hot air balloon basket.

The thunderbolt cannon's range is not good, but the ambush cannon that reaches outside the moat is not a big problem when it covers the small Lingzhou City.

Zhongpu took off the list and sketch from the clip and began to read.

When the soldiers adjusted the muzzle: "First round of test firing, two rapid fire rounds, fire!"

Forty-five ambush cannons all let out a dull roar and threw ninety shells into the city.

Soon, explosions and chaotic shouts were heard one after another in the city.

The iron clip continued to slide off the balloon, and under the guidance of the balloon observer, the shooting direction was continuously corrected.

Looking down from the balloon, Lingzhou City has an unobstructed view. There are more than 30,000 defenders in the city. They were completely stunned by such a sudden attack.

Explosions are becoming more and more precise, and the most important places to take care of are government offices and military camps.

The stables in the south of the city were blown open, and countless horses escaped, adding to the chaos in the city.

The crowd was completely frightened by the huge monster in the sky and the terrifying explosion on the ground. Their instinct to avoid the terror made them rush towards the water gate to the north.

The terrifying shells seemed to have eyes, chasing the fleeing people and falling into the streets and houses from south to north.

The Xia sergeant, who had never thought about packing up his weapons, ran away crying for his father and mother. Every explosion of a bomb would take away a wave of lives.

There is a raging army and a raging nest of generals. Regardless of the courage of the generals and the quality of the soldiers, the Xia Kingdom and the Song Dynasty, in fact, every country has the same problem - from the border area to the center, it gradually decreases.

There was smoke everywhere in the city, and several fire, salt and kerosene warehouses used for city defense were ignited, causing black smoke to rise.

The observer on the balloon waved the red flag. Guo Huai held a telescope and looked at the Lingzhou Tower: "General attack!"

The thunderbolt cannon, which had been silent for a long time, began to show its power, and several shells first landed on the towers of Lingzhou City.

The huge explosion directly blasted the tower into several sections. Countless stones, mud bricks, wood, and the human bodies of the Xia troops who defended the city fell from the top of the city like a heavy rain.

In the quiet moat, a dense ripple suddenly appeared, which was caused by the flying mud and rocks thrown by the explosion into the river a hundred meters away from the city.

The general who defended the city still had a somewhat military temperament. Even though the commander fled before fighting, he still insisted on guarding the city.

However, he died immediately in this wave of bombardment.

The Xia army, which had lost its command, completely lost its fighting spirit under such heavenly power. They fled from the city wall one after another, following their comrades who had long been frightened, and fled towards the north city.

The muzzle of the gun gradually moved downward, and a shell flew toward the south gate of Lingzhou City. The huge kinetic energy allowed it to directly penetrate the wooden and iron-lined gate, sink into the mud and stone behind the door that blocked the entire gate, and then explode suddenly.

Countless mud and rocks spurted out from both sides of the city gate like a flood. The city gate that the Xia people had worked hard to seal was completely opened by the Song army with just one shot.

Gao Zunyu waved his hand, and Li Wenzhao led 20,000 Tibetan troops, crossed the pontoon bridge, and rushed towards the city, braving the falling bricks, mud and stones.

After all 20,000 people entered the city, Zhongzhen's cavalry slowly followed up. Then the new army entered the city, occupied the city wall and various high places in the city, and cleared out all the way along the city wall to the north gate.

At the north gate of Lingzhou, at Lujia Ferry, the sound of crying was loud.

Liang Lingtong had already boarded the big ship, holding the mast and shouting at the top of his lungs: "Sail the ship! Sail the ship quickly!"

Liang Lingtong didn't have much ability, let alone a general. He was just a playboy in the family.

He was good at talking about money and playing with girls. It wasn't until his aunt and sister came into the family that he entered the political arena and became the governor of Lingzhou.

Even when Liang Yongneng and Ren Duo were fighting bloody battles for the country, he was still looking for beauties for himself in Lingzhou City.

Even the military rations of the two of them were deducted a lot by this short-sighted and incompetent guy, who was preparing to line his own pockets, so that Liang Yongneng had to go on a killing spree in the oasis.

The ferry was already densely packed with people, and from time to time, black things falling from the sky would explode in the crowd. Every time they exploded, an empty space and a sea of ​​blood would be cleared, which would then be refilled by the chaotic crowd.

Countless sergeants jumped into the icy water, grabbed the ropes and rudder tips, and worked hard to climb up the ship.

The boatman had long since escaped. The guards slashed the sergeants who were about to board the ship with their knives, while cutting the ropes and clumsily pushing the ship away from the port with the iron tip of the beam pole, regardless of whether the iron point was pointed at the port.

The cornerstone is still Pao Ze’s body.

Suddenly, louder exclamations and cries erupted from behind the port, and countless people crowded towards the port, squeezing people on the port's stone steps into the water.

A big flag appeared on the north gate city - Tiandu summoned!

Li Wenzhao led his men through the city as quickly as possible and directly reached the north gate.

After staying with the army for half a month and witnessing the terrifying firepower of the Song army several times, he was already very clear about his future.

There is no other way out except to show die-hard loyalty to the Song Dynasty.

Credit! He must get big credit!

It’s not even a merit, even a big mistake!

What's more, he has long had a deep-seated hatred for the Xia Kingdom's rear party members, and this country was finally destroyed in their hands.

Wearing a red coat of the Song Army and holding an excellent Song Dynasty cavalry sword in his hand, from now on, he is the most ferocious dog in the Song Dynasty!

"Kill!" Li Wenzhao gritted his teeth, raised his sword high, and slashed at the panicked and defenseless compatriots on the dock.

The compatriots slaughtered the compatriots more ferociously than the enemy's army!

By the Yellow River, less than half of the more than 20,000 Xia people were squeezed into the water with floating ice floes by their comrades. The thick fur coats instantly turned into a heavy burden, ruthlessly leading them into the deep water.

More than half of the remaining ones, under the frenzied killing spree of Li Wenzhao and his men, laid their corpses down the Yellow River for five miles downstream.
