Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Page 546

Even seeing that Sun Chuanting insisted on this, Wu Xuan stopped persuading him and let Sun Chuanting go like this.

Two quarters of an hour later, the smoke in Zhao Wen's camp had dissipated.

The artillery has arrived at the artillery position that was set up yesterday.

Except for the west city wall where Zhao Wen is located, there are artillery on the rest of the city wall.

When the artillery came to the position, they began to prepare for firing.

At this time, the infantry attacking the city had also assembled.

They were divided into three arrays and stood neatly behind the artillery positions.

Zhao Wen rode on the horse and was protected inside by the personal guards led by Li Xiaosan.

Zhao Wen looked at the sun in the sky, took a deep breath of the moist air, and said, "Notify the artillery positions that they will bombard the city of Kaifeng in a quarter of an hour. Remember, aim for me, and try not to let the shells fly over the city walls and land on the ground." in town.

The people in the city are the foundation for the future, if there are no casualties, there will be no casualties. "

Li Xiaosan took a few messengers and quickly conveyed Zhao Wen's order.

After receiving Zhao Wen's order, the artillerymen outside the four walls made the final preparations before the shelling.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and when the quarter of an hour passed, two shells flew out from the artillery position in front of Zhao Wen and flew towards the city wall of Kaifeng Fucheng.

"Whizzing!"

With a whistling sound, the shell hit the city wall after a short flight.

It was not the first time that Sun Chuanting had fought against Zhao Wen. When he heard the sound of breaking through the sky, he immediately buried his body behind the crenel of the city wall.

"Bang bang!"

Two explosions sounded, and two huge flames shot into the sky.

Where the shells landed, the sacks used to reinforce the city walls were blown apart in an instant.

The soil in the sack was blown everywhere, flying around with fragments of shells.

The soldiers at the landing point were killed without even a scream.

Around the point of impact, fragments penetrated their bodies, shattering their internal organs.

The screams sounded, and the soldiers in the distance were frightened.

These two shells were used to calibrate the artillery. When the two shells hit the city wall accurately, all the artillery on the artillery position roared.

For a while, like the firecrackers set off during the New Year, the sound of artillery firing was endless and continuous.

After a short flight, rumbling explosions rang out on the city walls.

"Bang bang bang!"

It was like setting off firecrackers on the city wall, and the sound of explosions kept ringing.

All soldiers affected by the explosion were instantly killed by the explosion.

The sound of the rumbling explosion reached Sun Chuanting's ears, causing tinnitus in his ears.

Black gunpowder smoke and flames continued to rise on the city wall, and the defenders on the city wall were crying for their fathers and mothers after being bombed.

Especially those young and strong who had never fought against Zhao Wen. When they saw a few alive and kicking people being blown up like rag bags, they collapsed.

They threw down the weapons in their hands, screaming and fleeing to the city.

Surrounding Qing Zhuang were Sun Chuanting's soldiers and horses. When they saw these Qing Zhuang who were about to flee for their lives, they brandished their waist knives and chopped off their heads.

"Whoever dares to run away will end up like this!" A soldier with his face covered in blood, holding a bloody head in his hand, shouted at the flustered young man in front of him.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a shell landed beside the soldier impartially.

In an instant, huge flames enveloped the soldier.

The soldier didn't even react, so he fell silent.

The young men in front of him were also affected by the explosion, the air wave knocked them over, and shrapnel flew into their chests.

In the blink of an eye, all the people in this area were lying on the ground.

The sacks filled with mud on the city wall were blown to pieces under the series of explosions, and the mud inside was also blown into dust, which filled the city wall.

If Zhao Wen's artillery was a red cannon or a Frang machine, it would not be easy to blast through the sacks filled with mud on the city wall in a short time.

However, the cannon in Zhao Wen's hands is not comparable to that of the red cannon and Frang.

Once the shell hits, it can blow up the sack where the shell landed, and even touch the city wall bricks under the sack.

Chapter 629

The artillery kept blasting on the city wall, and it didn't take long for the city wall to be bombed with pits and hollows.

The sacks used for reinforcement on the city wall were completely for display. Under the intensive artillery bombardment, they were all blown into fly ash.

The defenders on the city wall trembled during the bombardment. Some soldiers wanted to escape, but under the dense artillery, they were too frightened to move for a while.

Their mentality collapsed instantly under the blow of this kind of firepower, and they all stayed where they were, curled up and wailed loudly.

However, their cries were hardly heard by anyone except them and the soldiers around them.

Because the cry was covered by the explosion, it could not be heard.

A young man couldn't hold on any longer, he dropped the weapon in his hand, and ran under the city wall without looking back.

However, not long after he ran out, a shell landed beside him.

After the explosion, his figure completely disappeared.

"Run for your life, run away!!!"

A young man screamed loudly, threw the weapon in his hand on the ground, turned around and ran.

As soon as he moved, the rest of the people in the area where he was also dropped their weapons and followed behind him, preparing to flee to the city.

At this time, even looking at these young and strong soldiers, they no longer stopped them, and even followed behind the young and strong soldiers to escape under the city wall.

With the continuous bombardment of artillery, the defenders on the city wall began to collapse.

From the beginning to the present, the defenders on the city wall persisted for a quarter of an hour.

During this quarter of an hour, these defenders lived like years.

There were crying fathers and mothers and screams everywhere on the city wall, and there were defenders fleeing everywhere with their heads in their hands.

"My lord, I can't defend anymore, retreat quickly, gather your troops and horses and prepare for street fighting. If this continues, I'm afraid our people will all die." Wu Zhen squatted behind Sun Chuanting, and shouted anxiously at Sun Chuanting screamed.

Sun Chuanting's eyes were about to burst, he turned around, and growled at Wu Tong, "What? What are you talking about? You want me to retreat and prepare for street fighting? Do you think we are the opponents of Bandit Zhao in street fighting?

You don't need to say anything, I will stick to Kaifeng Fucheng, even if I die in battle, I still have to defend Kaifeng Fucheng. "

At this time, Sun Chuanting had no way out. If Kaifeng Fucheng fell, it would mean that Henan was about to fall.

At that time, even if he survived, Chongzhen would not spare him.

At that time, not only him, but even his family members will be punished by Chongzhen.

Sun Chuanting did not want his family to be punished by Chongzhen, and under various considerations, Sun Chuanting chose to stick to Kaifeng Fucheng.

"My lord, you can't, if you don't leave, all of us will die on the city wall.

My lord, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood.grown ups! ! ! "

Wu Tong kept persuading Sun Chuanting, trying to persuade Sun Chuanting to leave the city wall.

But Sun Chuanting was like a donkey, no matter what Wu Tong said, he was unwilling to retreat from the city wall.

"Don't say any more, just leave if you want to. This official eats the king's salary and is loyal to the emperor. This official must stick to Kaifeng Fucheng, and this official will live and die with Kaifeng Fucheng."

Sun Chuanting pulled out the long sword from his waist, and his face became firm, as if he was going to fight Zhao Wen to the end.

Seeing that Sun Chuanting insisted on this, Wu Xuan couldn't say anything more.

"Ugh!"

Wu Zhen patted his thigh and let out a long sigh.

At the same time, King Zhou stood in the backyard of the palace, looking towards the city wall with horror on his face.

At the beginning, the explosion sound was not very dense, but as time passed, the explosion sound became more and more intensive.

"What is this? Father, what is this? What is this? Is it thunder from the sky?" King Zhou's son stood beside King Zhou, trembling with horror.

The prince of Zhou had never been in contact with Zhao Wen, nor had he seen how powerful Zhao Wen's weapons were.

Before that, I just heard Sun Chuanting say it.

However, there is no real truth in listening to others.

"Father, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, I'm afraid, Lord Sun can't hold Kaifeng mansion city?" Zhou Wangshizi only felt that his scalp was numb, and his body was as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"This, this, this..." Zhou Wang was also trembling, his eyes were dull, and he murmured: "Thirty percent sure, thirty percent sure, how can this be thirty percent sure? This is not even [-]% sure, [-]% sure Not at all. It’s not even [-]% sure.”

At this time, the king of Zhou did not believe at all that Sun Chuanting had told him before that he was [-]% sure of keeping the city wall.

From the beginning to the present, the sound of explosions on the city wall has never stopped.Although the King of Zhou had never seen Zhao Wen's artillery, he knew it was not an ordinary thing just from the terrifying movement.

"Hurry up and get someone to pack up, the city of Kaifeng can no longer be defended!" King Zhou looked at Prince Zhou's son, trembling.

Prince Zhou nodded and hurriedly ran to the back.

At the same time, Lu Wang and Zhu Changhao hid in the study, trembling non-stop.

"What is this? What is this? What is this?"

Zhu Changhao kept screaming loudly, he grew up so big, he has never experienced such a thing today.

"My lord, let's hurry up and get ready to run." The head of the royal residence stood by the desk, with his right hand resting on the desk, looking at Lu Wang Zhu Changhao who was shivering on the chair with a look of horror on his face.

Zhu Changhao looked at the head of the palace and exclaimed: "You're right, you're right, get someone to prepare quickly, I'm going to run for my life, I'm going to run for my life."

……

"Continue the bombing!" Zhao Wen said while looking at the Kaifeng city in front of him with a binoculars.

Li Xiaosan hurriedly took Zhao Wen's order to the artillery position.

After a while, the shells flying towards the city wall became more and more dense.

The city walls also crumbled layer by layer under the bombardment.

At this time, the defenders on the city wall all fled down the city.

As for those who did not escape, except for those who were killed by the bombing, only the half-damaged ones remained.

Sun Chuanting's eyes were red, and he looked at the flames rising above the city with resentment.

Wu Xuan crouched behind Sun Chuanting, trembling.

"My lord, get out quickly." Wu Sheng persuaded again.

"I don't..." Before Sun Chuanting finished speaking, a shell landed on Sun Chuanting's side.

The air wave generated by the explosion instantly knocked Sun Chuanting and others to the ground.

Because Sun Chuanting was squatting under the crenel, and he was protected by layers of guards under his command, and the distance from the shell explosion was relatively far, so he did not suffer any serious injuries.

Sun Chuanting was bombed and fell to the ground, his eyes were black and his ears were full of buzzing.

Beside him, some of the guards who were protecting him were bleeding from all orifices, and there was no movement.

Sun Chuanting's head was a little dazed by the blast. He looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't react for a long time.

Because Wu Zhen was relatively close to Sun Chuanting, he did not suffer any serious injuries.

Seeing this, Wu Xuan's body trembled unceasingly.

"No, no, I can't stay here any longer. If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll die here." Wu Chen thought to himself, and then looked at the surviving guards, "Carry my lord on my back and run for my life !"

Wu Tong also ignored Sun Chuanting's order, before Sun Chuanting could react, he cut first and then played.

After the words fell, the surviving defenders couldn't help but pick up Sun Chuanting and fled to the city.
