Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 730

Wu Chaoqun, Qi Ying and others in the city were enraged when they saw that the guards of the other side had shot cold arrows at the envoys.

There was no such basic etiquette of not beheading, which made the soldiers in the city angry.

"General Su, your strategy of recruiting surrender doesn't seem to work?" Lu Chaoqun asked with a half-smile.

He wanted to make Su Chen face face to face. After all, Su Chen has always been admired by everyone for his clever calculations and his image of being good at scheming.

Lu Chaoqun felt great pressure and threat, now it is rare to laugh at Su Chen's failure to plan in front of all the soldiers, lords, and ministers of civil and military affairs.

It is also to tell everyone, let them see that Su Chen is not omnipotent, and his strategies sometimes do not work, so everyone should not be too obsessed with trusting him.

This is Lu Chaoqun's state of mind at this time.

There are also generals on Lu Chaoqun's side, who seem to have a bit of sneer at the corner of their mouths. The envoys sent here were all shot and attacked by people. This is a loss of face, and it also proves that the other party will never surrender. Come to the lord and all the civil and military officials, but it didn't work. Isn't this a problem with the plan?
When Su Chen heard General Lu's question, he also smiled slightly, and replied: "General Lu, don't be impatient, all of this is within Su's expectation, thinking that the Wuyue Kingdom has been established for decades, and there are still food and grass in the city. Wan Jingbing, there must be someone who will take the lead in the battle, and someone who will take the initiative to surrender, Wuyue King Qian Chu must be hesitating, this time the arrow shooter is the main battle faction deliberately sabotaging the negotiation, and that's why he made such a cold arrow to sabotage."

"As long as we suddenly launch a fierce attack to frighten the main battle faction at the top of the city, and make Qian Chu and the main surrender faction even more frightened, within a few days, King Wuyue will definitely leave the city and surrender."

"It's easy to say, how about deterrence, is it still a conventional siege? We have been attacking for a month, but we haven't intimidated the other side. Will the force attack be effective for a few more days?" Lu Chaoqun's number one general Gao Fuquan suddenly asked in a cold voice.

This Gao Fuquan is Lu Chaoqun's direct line general. He has been with him for 20 years. This time he led troops into Wuyue. Just presumptuous and presumptuous.

Su Chen glanced at him, and said coldly: "Of course it's not a conventional method. If you still attack the city like in the past, it won't scare the Wuyue main fighters. How can they give in?"

When everyone heard Su Chen's words up to this point, they seemed to have whetted their appetites, and they were all curious, what method is Su Chen going to use?

Lu Chaoqun laughed and said: "General Su, don't be a fool. If you have a good deterrent strategy, you might as well tell it, so that your lord and all the ministers and generals will also open their eyes. If it is as you expected, it can deter the other party. Let Wuyue King Qian Chu go out of the city and surrender, then General Su is the first to do it."

At this time, Lu Chaoqun began to urge him, using laughter to cover up the atmosphere of tit-for-tat, trying to resolve the unhappiness before the battle, and at the same time, it was a way to provoke Su Chen.

"General Jing Hong listened to the order, and led people to prepare the whirlwind cannon, and used the latest sky-shocking thunder to give Wu Yue a blow!"

"Decree!" Jing Hong rode his horse to make arrangements. He came from the protector of Zatong City and brought some Thunderbolt projectiles combined with black powder and tin cans developed by Su Chen in Quanzhou.

Although it is not yet possible to bombard with cannons, but to use that kind of trebuchet whirlwind cannon, ignite this kind of thunder, directly hit the top of the city, and then explode, there will be iron sheets, iron beads, etc. flying inside, which can injure , Blowing up a piece of enemy troops.

Dozens of trebuchets were set up, and after igniting the Thunderbolt, they were thrown out quickly.

Boom boom boom!
These thunderbolts landed on the top of the city, the towers, and inside the city walls, and suddenly there was a huge explosion, which was filled with improved black powder, which was so powerful that the iron pieces flew around, and everyone in a radius of ten meters was affected.

what!Ahh!

There were screams, and many people fell to the ground with shrapnel, blood spattering.

The entire city tower shook, and even a corner of it was blown apart.

Qian Chu and all the civil and military officials who were hiding in the tower had iron nets in front of them, which could block cold arrows from coming. However, when they saw the explosions everywhere, the sound was like thunder, and the tower shook like an earthquake, they all felt frightened and turned pale.

"What is this? What weapon did Hei Yun use?"

"I don't know, it's similar to explosives, much more powerful than the old gunpowder."

Gunpowder has been around for a long time, but it is mostly used for firecrackers and not used much in the military. Moreover, the power of old gunpowder is limited, not as good as this new improved black powder.

The violent bombing had already caused heavy losses to the soldiers at the top of the city, and shocked Qian Chu and all the civil and military officials. They fled down the tower and returned to the inner city.

At this time, there was a loud fight outside the city, and the Heiyundu army launched an attack on the city, with morale like a rainbow, shouting to kill the sky.

With Su Chen's hand, he knocked mountains and shook tigers, and made himself a saint in front of people, and his prestige in the army was even higher.

Even Lu Chaoqun, Qi Ying, Lu Zheng, Wei Dongqiang, Gao Fuquan and other generals had never seen this thing before, so they guessed that it might be Su Chen's latest invention.

This Su Chen is amazing. He is versatile in both civil and military affairs. Not only is he proficient in calculations, he also knows how to create things. It's hard not to be convinced!
Yang Linger, Han Xizai and the others were all smiling. Su Chen would never let them down at any time!
This hand of hole cards was unexpectedly played, not only Wuyue soldiers were intimidated, but even the soldiers of Heiyundu were also intimidated. It would be easier to attack the city with such a powerful weapon of mass destruction.

The morale of the army was high, and the city gates on all sides launched a general attack.

.........

Qian Chu went back to discuss again, and this time more people were in favor of surrender, more than two-thirds of the people.

"Heiyun has such powerful siege weapons to deter the three armies and suppress our army. It is hard to resist!"

"Nowadays, the soldiers at the top of the city have suffered a lot of casualties, which has a great impact on the morale of the army and the people. Instead of waiting for a few days to be breached and everyone to be killed, it is better to surrender earlier and get forgiven."

"I suggest that for the sake of the people of Hangzhou City and tens of thousands of soldiers, and for the stability of the world, they should surrender as soon as possible!"

"I also suggest that for the sake of the people in the city, just surrender!"

These ministers never talked about their own interests and safety, they kept their mouths shut, they were all the people in the city, and the world was stable and so on.

As the saying goes, those who are righteous are mostly dog ​​slaughterers, and those who are heartless are mostly scholars.

At critical times, some civil servants think about self-protection and surrender in order to protect themselves, their families, and their official positions. However, they must proceed from righteousness, even if they are selfish, they must find excuses.

At this time, the main combat faction is not so firm, because with the cooperation of these siege weapons and the army outside the city, breaking the city is just around the corner.

Right now, the city is suffering heavy casualties and morale is low. It is clear that the defenders will not be able to hold back for long.

After a night of serious consideration, the next day, Qian Chu was worried about all civil and military officials, and decided to surrender with tears.
