My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 2103 Preparations for Street Fighting

Jiang Lei commanded the gunners to arrange the ten cannons that had just been acquired, estimating the distance, and adjusting the angle of the cannon barrels. He was very busy.

"General, just like before, just try to shoot a wave first!"

Jiang Lei took the shells handed by the gunner and patted them: "You know what, you think these shells are as worthless as those shells.

This cannonball is worth several hundred taels of silver. If one wasted, the commander could beat me to death! "

Thinking of how many dozens of shells were consumed in order to get familiar with these artillery a few days ago, Jiang Lei shuddered when the commander stomped his feet and scolded his mother when he knew about it.

"A few hundred taels? It's made of gold, General, don't be ridiculous!"

"Who knows, I am good at making cannons, but I am also a layman at how to make cannons. Since the commander-in-chief said it is worth so much, he will definitely not aim at nothing.

Well, from this angle, load the shells and prepare them. After receiving the order from the commander in chief, I will do the first shot by myself! "

"Yes!"

Liu Mingzhi watched the counterattack action of the forbidden army on the city wall, and his frown has not been relaxed since the time of attacking the city.

Compared with the previous two days, the counterattack of the imperial army and Wuwei was completely different.

Compared with the previous two days, he had both offense and defense, and he seemed to have a perfect defense method today. Today, he didn't see it, but it was some counterattack behavior full of loopholes.

What the hell is going on here.

The tactic of showing the enemy his weakness to lure the enemy did not use the lives of his soldiers.

Liu Mingzhi could only suppress the doubts in his heart as he became more and more unable to understand the behavior of the imperial guards defending the city, and closely observed the progress of the siege of his own infantry brothers, in case any sudden changes occurred.

Seeing An Gou'er's naval division cooperate with his own soldiers and horses to deploy layers of troops and steadily attack the city, Liu Mingzhi glanced at An Gou'er's position, watching the frequent waving of the command flag to convey orders, An Gou'er, who commanded the sailors to change their formation from time to time, Liu Mingzhi frowned and cursed secretly.

It is absolutely impossible for Jiang He to honestly trade with Western countries, otherwise, how could the sailors who have been wandering at sea all year round have such a refined appearance when attacking the city.

The close cooperation between the archers and the sword and shield soldiers and the shield hands, even I, who has been in many battles and has been commanding soldiers and horses to charge into battle all the year round, can't fault it.

It is estimated that apart from the empire on which the sun never sets, this doggy may have raised his own butcher knife in some other countries in the West.

As for why, Liu Mingzhi still doesn't know.

The sun was rising, and with the help of artillery, catapults, and bed crossbows, the first ladder was finally attached to the city wall, and then the siege engine was attached.

"Kill!"

The soldiers of the new army held up their shields to guard against the thunder, rocks and logs coming from the city wall, brandishing their knives and bravely climbed up the city wall without fear of death.

Nangong Ye on the west side of the north city wall heard the movement from the east side of the city wall, and immediately turned his head to look at the enemy army that had already attacked the city, and ran over without hesitation.

Liu Mingzhi looked at the soldiers and horses approaching the city and let out a long breath: "Order Jiang Lei to bombard the city gate!"

"Order!"

Ding Weibo Yang Zhenguo gritted his teeth and waved the command flag in his hand.

"Hurry up, the sword and shield soldiers stepped forward to cover, and the Thunder Stone Roller smashed down hard!"

"Ding Weibo, how did you command the troops? How did the enemy break through the line of defense so quickly?"

"Xiaguan. Xiaguan hasn't commanded soldiers and horses for more than ten years. I can't adapt to the current confrontation method for a while!"

Nangong Ye lamented with an ugly face: "Decree, let the enemy troops who have already climbed the ladder climb the city wall before beheading them, and try our best to prevent the follow-up soldiers from climbing the ladder."

"Order!"

thump.

Amidst the dense artillery, there was a distinctive muffled sound.

There was a bang under the city gate, the movement was far louder than the explosive bombs falling on the city wall!

"General, the shot missed, and it's still about five steps away!"

"I saw it, all the cannons were raised by one finger, and fired at the city gate with all their strength!"

"Order!"

"Fire with all your strength and bombard the city gate."

The distinctive sound of artillery sounded from outside the city again, and it was no longer one sound, but sounded one after another.

All of a sudden, the city gate was full of flames, and the thick smoke blocked everyone's sight. The guards directly above the gate of the city wall couldn't help but trembled, shaking their heads in a daze, not knowing what happened.

The fierce explosion sounded continuously and it took a cup of tea before it stopped.

When the gunpowder smoke dissipated, the tall city gate with dense holes that had been bombarded by solid bullets no longer existed, and turned into a pile of wooden blocks scattered under the gate opening.

Jiang Lei looked at the exposed rammed earth bricks in the door opening, put down the binoculars in his hand, and slammed his palm hard.

"Damn it, with these cannons, I can bombard all the gates of the Kingdom of Jin within half a year.

Send an order, lower the muzzle of the gun by two scales and continue firing, blasting the city gate for the cavalry to make a way! "

"Order!"

"The messenger!"

"exist!"

"Let Yu Bo call out thirty cannons, and cooperate with the general to bombard the rammed earth and bricks in the city gate with explosive bullets!"

"Order!"

The artillery roared again and again, and the north city gate, whose city bricks had been loosened, was once again greeted with a wave of fierce artillery bombardment.

Liu Mingzhi looked at the figure of the general on the city wall leaning forward to look at the city gate, and silently put down the binoculars in his hand and murmured a few words.

"How could it be so easy? Are the generals defending the city defenseless at all? Damn, no matter what schemes you have, this king must fight his way out."

"The messenger!"

"exist!"

"Command Ning Chao and Ye Baotong to go to the north gate and rush into the city at any time under the banner of the war drum."

"Order!"

"The messenger!"

"exist!"

"You sent orders to Cheng Kai, Han Peng, Chu Jing, Feng Buer, and Zhou Baoyu, who blocked General Dongfang on the northern official road, to be ready to withdraw from the battlefield at any time and rush into the city."

"I have to wait!"

Under the charge of the Sixth Guards of the New Army and the fifth battalion of the Navy, the soldiers charged one after another.

Until the sun was three poles, the battle situation finally changed drastically.

After the bombardment of the city gate, the loose rammed earth was completely filled into the moat under the desperate excavation of the infantry soldiers against the city wall.

"The city gate is broken, the city gate is broken. Um..."

The soldier who was waving the pickaxe and shouting excitedly was hit by a feathered arrow and fell limply to the ground.

"Hurry up, set off the signal flare, let the brothers prepare to enter the city. Watch out for the archers on the wall!"

Outside the war-torn capital, a bright flower exploded in the air.

The watchman pointed excitedly at the sky.

"Marshal, the city gate has been dug through, and we can rush to the city!"

Liu Mingzhi suppressed the excitement in his heart, and jumped off the platform.

"Dahu, is this the first day we have attacked the city?"

"Report to Commander, today is the seventh day!"

"Seven days, it's really hard to fight!

The order was sent, and the drums were beaten to send the message. The soldiers on the battlefield from all sides withdrew to the north gate, entered the city with all their strength, and annihilated the stubborn imperial guards and military guards. "

Liu Mingzhi glanced at the Forbidden Army who were still stubbornly resisting on the city wall, and sighed silently.

"Order all the soldiers to prepare for street fighting in advance, in case something unexpected happens!"

"Order!"

The morale-boosting drums instantly changed the rhythm and rhythm, and the soldiers of the six guards attacking the city from the east, west, and south walls immediately stopped their siege operations and turned their gazes to the north of the city.

The flag bearer waved the command flag again and again, ordering the soldiers to rush to the north of the city immediately.

Liu Mingzhi got on his horse and pulled out the Heavenly Sword from his waist to gallop across the field.

"Brothers, follow my commander into the city, the first one to rush into the city will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold!"
