The artillery was pushed to the bottom of Liangzhou City.
How could Guo Mingcheng care about his image?
He scolded Qin Yu and ran away, which was regarded as retaliation.
Seeing Guo Mingcheng, he ordered to go to the city.
The Liangzhou Army officers and soldiers at the top of the city could no longer hold their nerve and rushed towards the bottom of the city.
If King Liang hadn't been holding the battle in front, they would have rushed to the city by now.
The deterrent effect of artillery on the Liangzhou Army has reached its extreme.
During this time in the city, the most discussed thing by everyone was artillery.
When it comes to artillery, the sense of sight of blood and flesh flying everywhere comes to you in an instant.
The fear brought by the artillery has been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the Liangzhou Army officers and soldiers.
This effect is exactly what Qin Yu wants.
I saw that the city walls of Liangzhou Prefecture had been completely evacuated.
Qin Yu shook his head helplessly and rode back.
Immediately afterwards.
The firearms army has pushed the artillery to a position 1,500 steps away from the city.
Catapults and crossbows have also been set up, but these siege engines have a relatively short range.
So they were all set up in front of the artillery.
After arranging everything.
Qin Yu did not give the order to fire, it was not time to attack the city yet.
Behind the military formation.
Under the escort of Anbei Army officers and soldiers.
Prisoners of the Dayi Kingdom and prisoners of the Gustone Tribe, carrying sandbags on their backs, were heading towards the moat under Liangzhou City.
The moat under Liangzhou City has been significantly reinforced and widened.
If the Wei army can successfully attack the city, the moat must be filled.
Qin Yu never fought an uncertain battle, and did everything possible to reduce the losses of the Wei army's soldiers.
Therefore, Qin Yu specially asked Sun Zhenshan and Zhao Jing to capture more prisoners in order to fill up the moat.
Qin Yu would definitely not let the Wei soldiers do such a dangerous thing.
"Go! Go! As long as the moat is filled up, you can survive. If anyone dares to run away, I will chop off their head!"
"You have eaten my food for so many days, it's time to repay Wei!"
"I'm telling you! If one person doesn't step forward, a whole group will be killed, and if two people don't step forward, a whole group will be killed. If anyone wants to harm the people around him, you should run away!"
.......
Driven by the officers and soldiers of the Anbei Army, thousands of prisoners from the Dayi Kingdom and the Gustone Tribe carried sandbags toward the city.
At this time, the Wei army officers also saw the iron-blooded side of the Prince Consort.
When dealing with the common people and soldiers of the Wei Dynasty, the Prince Consort was always so benevolent and righteous, without any airs.
But towards his enemies, the Prince Consort is like Yama, and he will never be merciful.
Xiao Nan's scalp felt numb just looking at it. He didn't expect Qin Yu to be so decisive.
As long as he can reduce the battle losses of the Wei army's soldiers, he can do anything.
Shen Binglan frowned slightly but said nothing, because these people were originally enemies of Wei.
Qin Yu even looked calm and calm.
Because he has never been a Holy Mother, and these people were originally accomplices of the traitors of the Wei Dynasty and can be considered the invaders of the Wei Dynasty.
Can we be merciful to invaders?
Just kidding, absolutely impossible!
This is the principle that Qin Yu has always followed in his conduct. He can do whatever he wants for his own people, but he can't do anything for his enemies.
Driven by the Wei army officers and soldiers.
The prisoners threw bags of sand into the moat.
There was no obstruction from the Liangzhou Army, so the progress was very fast.
at the same time.
Within the city.
Guo Mingcheng stood on the top of a pavilion, staring at the city head.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement at the top of the city.
"What the hell is Qin Yu doing again?"
Guo Mingcheng couldn't help but cursed.
He felt that Qin Yu wouldn't be so bored that he would play tricks on himself, right?
Zhong Chengyun frowned and said anxiously: "Not good!"
Guo Mingcheng was stunned and asked: "What's wrong?"
Zhong Chengyun said anxiously: "Your Majesty, is Qin Yu filling in the moat?"
"ah?"
Guo Mingcheng was shocked and clapped his thigh, "Yes! It must be like this! Damn Qin Yu's kid is so shameless. He gave me a false shot just to fill up the moat! Come on! Go to the top of the city to find out the truth for me.
!”
Then, a personal guard rushed towards the city.
Not long after.
The guard turned back and saluted: "Your Majesty, the Wei army is driving the prisoners to fill the moat with sand. However, the artillery, catapults and crossbows have been set up. If our army gets to the top of the city, the Wei army will
There will definitely be an attack."
"captive!?"
Guo Mingcheng was furious, "This damn Qin Yu actually let my Liangzhou Army prisoners fill up the river?"
The guard shook his head, "No, they are all prisoners of Dayi and Gustone tribes."
Hear this.
Guo Mingcheng and Zhong Chengyun suddenly realized it.
They didn't understand before why Qin Yu wanted to capture so many prisoners.
It turned out that he was waiting to use it today, and Qin Yu didn't use the trick of capturing Liangzhou army prisoners, which was really insidious.
Guo Mingcheng turned to look at Zhong Chengyun and asked: "Military advisor, what should we do now? If they fight back, Qin Yu will definitely use artillery. If he doesn't fight back, he can only watch them fill up the moat. If the moat is filled in,
Ping, we are missing a natural barrier."
Zhong Chengyun frowned and said in a deep voice: "We must not let Qin Yu succeed so easily. In this way, we can send a small number of crossbowmen to the top of the city to hide under the arrow stacks to counterattack. In this way, we can give it a try
Our city head's ability to withstand artillery can also harass the Wei army to fill the moat."
In fact the moat was filled.
Guo Mingcheng and Zhong Chengyun had already expected it, but it was just a matter of time.
But they couldn't just watch the Wei army fill the river.
Listen to what Zhong Chengyun says.
Guo Mingcheng nodded in response, "Okay, this is all we can do now. If the crossbowmen are safe enough hiding under the arrow stack, it proves that the Wei army's artillery is not omnipotent."
Immediately afterwards.
Guo Mingcheng passed on the order.
After a stick of incense.
Sun Zheng, the captain of the crossbow battalion, glanced at the thousand crossbowmen in front of him and said loudly: "Brothers, you are all the most elite soldiers in Liangzhou City. Today, the prince has given us the most difficult task, and we have climbed up the city.
Head, snipe at the prisoners of the Wei army who are filling in the moat! This is our honor!!!"
Hear this.
Most of the crossbowmen unconsciously felt chills rising from the soles of their feet.
They are really not afraid of death, they just don't want to be blown to pieces.
And he clearly asked them to be used as cannon fodder, but he also coaxed them here in a high-sounding way.
But they cannot show any dissatisfaction or cowardice now.
Because the governor behind them had already drawn the horizontal sword from his waist.
If they dare to disobey, their heads will fall to the ground in the next moment, and their families will also be harmed.
Because Guo Mingcheng deliberately selected soldiers whose families lived in Liangzhou City.
He didn't want deserters to appear in the first battle. They could die on the city wall, but they could never escape.
