While everyone was thinking about it, the Liangzhou Army's artillery was launched.
The sight of a deadly fire snake igniting from the muzzle and nearly five hundred artillery guns firing at the same time is quite shocking. It can make people freeze on the spot and completely forget what they are avoiding.
And a moment later, deadly shells also fell from the sky.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A huge explosion suddenly sounded at the top of Yizhou City.
The power of the explosion caused some buildings to collapse, and also sent smoke and dust all over the city...
Years of tempering in war have formed an instinct in the Liangzhou Army.
That is, once the war starts, it will never stop.
Once the gears of war begin to turn, they will continue to turn until the enemy falls.
As I said before, when fighting the Liangzhou Army, you will feel desperate.
Because their attacks are often as continuous as a stormy sea, and they never leave their opponents even a chance to breathe.
It was also at this moment that the Shu army in Yizhou City truly saw what the real Liangzhou army was.
Originally, some Shu soldiers thought that they were the most ferocious in fighting and attacking cities in the world.
Even under the encouragement of others, some soldiers felt arrogant and felt that the Liangzhou Army had a false reputation and was nothing compared to their own side.
But when they actually met the Liangzhou Army...
After seeing their bravery and fearlessness...
After seeing how fierce they were like tigers and wolves when fighting...
They really think like pomelo.
Because the Liangzhou army was really fierce, it was as fierce as the sky.
And after the Liangzhou Army's artillery started.
The generals of the Shu army did not hesitate and asked their soldiers to run down the city wall and lean against the city wall to avoid the flying cannonballs.
In this era, if soldiers wanted to avoid the damage of artillery, they could only hide in the city.
When the artillery stopped, they came up again to engage in offensive and defensive battles. >
Just as the Shu army was avoiding artillery fire, Cheng Huailiang also issued an order to storm the city.
At this moment, one hundred soldiers from the Tanma Battalion suddenly rushed out of the military formation and headed straight towards Yizhou City.
Their speed was extremely fast, and they had already passed half of the 800-step distance in almost an instant.
At this moment, the soldiers responsible for staying on the city wall also saw them.
After a brief moment of surprise, the ordering soldier hurriedly braved the artillery fire and ran down to report to his general.
The generals responsible for guarding this city wall were also a little baffled by the impact of these one hundred people.
The general asked directly: "Do they have ladders?"
"not at all."
The messenger answered truthfully: "They didn't bring anything. They didn't even draw their weapons. They just rushed forward holding a cloth bag."
"ah?"
This time the general was completely confused.
Rushing forward with a cloth bag in hand?
What is going on? What do they want to do?
The general had never seen or heard of such a scene, so he was stunned for a while before commanding: "Go and pass on my order. Immediately dispatch a hundred sharp archers to the third formation to intercept and kill these people."
But now is it too late to transfer people?
When the archers hurriedly ran up the city wall, they were already less than fifty or sixty steps away from the city wall.
Seeing this scene, the archers did not hesitate, loaded their bows and aimed to shoot.
But what they faced was Tanmaying, who was carefully selected by Li Chengqian.
Although these people now have something in their hands, it is very inconvenient when running.
However, it is difficult to aim when a hundred people are spreading out and running. Unless someone is extremely skilled in archery, it will be difficult to hurt them at all.
But occasionally a blind cat encounters a dead mouse.
It is inevitable that a few unlucky ones will be hit in the body by the opponent's arrows, causing their speed to slow down.
In such a situation, as long as the speed slows down, it is equivalent to death.
A member of the Tanma Battalion in the middle of the leg originally wanted to continue running forward.
But those arrows seemed to have eyes and were attacking him one after another.
In an instant, the soldier's body was covered with arrows.
The soldier fell to the ground unwillingly, but looked straight at the city head of Yizhou.
He hasn't gone up yet, he hasn't entered the city yet, he hasn't made any achievements yet.
How could you die here?
Blood gurgled out from the damaged areas on his body.
Gradually, his originally bright eyes lost their luster.
And this kind of thing happened occasionally among the crowd. When Tanmaying rushed to the foot of Yizhou City, there were less than sixty people left.
Looking further back, dozens of corpses were lying in a pool of blood. Some were still alive and wailing in pain...
Seeing such a scene, Cheng Huailiang also felt pain in his heart.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Stop looking and get to work quickly."
After hearing what he said, everyone no longer hesitated. They took out the sabers from their waists and used the sabers as shovels against the city wall to dig into the city wall.
Ancient city.
Especially big cities like Yizhou City all have foundations.
The foundation is more than ten meters deep and several meters shallow.
If Li Chengqian were to direct this battle in person, he would definitely stop everyone's behavior as soon as possible.
After all, digging the foundation is a very unwise choice.
But Cheng Huailiang's experience was obviously not sophisticated enough. He only thought about the tasks assigned to him by Li Chengqian and completely forgot about being flexible in war.
And in Tanmaying When the soldiers dug down to an arm's depth, Cheng Huailiang suddenly realized that this was of no use at all.
He looked back and saw that the Liangzhou Army's artillery fire had all stopped for fear of accidentally injuring his own people.
On the top of the city, the Shu army had also begun to gather on the city wall, and some people had even begun to shoot arrows at them.
Some soldiers who had no time to dodge were directly penetrated by arrows from above and shot into hedgehogs.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Huailiang's eyes turned red.
Finally, a chief of Tanma Camp stood up.
He said: "General, instead of digging the foundation, it is better to fix these explosives on the city wall."
"fixed?"
Cheng Huailiang asked with confusion on his face: "How to fix it? Is it by holding it with your hands?"
"Use a knife."
The commander of Tanmaying did not explain it, but directly demonstrated it himself.
He pierced the package with his hand knife, and then poked it into the gap in the city wall.
At that moment, the package was fixed on the city wall.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Hualiang's eyes suddenly lit up.
He said: "Don't just watch, everyone, do what I do."
After hearing what he said, the surrounding Tanma camp soldiers did not hesitate and followed suit, fixing dozens to hundreds of explosive packets on the city wall.
If it is too dense, they will create a wall of people themselves to make a show.
In the end, dozens of explosive packets were fixed on the city wall.
But at this moment, they suddenly discovered a problem.
Explosive packs are different from skyfire thunder.
The sky fire thunder only needs to touch the circlip to ignite, while the explosive package needs to be ignited by fire.
Moreover, the explosive packets were placed too scatteredly. If they were lit one by one, they would probably be blown up into the sky before all the explosive packets were ignited.
For a time, Cheng Hualiang was also in a dilemma...
