The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 735 Breaking through Xiushan ([-])

No one knows what this is.

The soaring cannon of the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty was only used during the Battle of Yongzhou.But now, the existence of this kind of thing obviously hasn't spread to the Dali army.

Before the five hundred Dali hot air balloons were able to officially confront the hot air balloons of the Great Song Imperial Army, the formation was already in chaos.

In a hot air balloon, watching the troops on the ground is like a living target.

And for the sky cannon, why not the hot air balloon in the sky?
The Tianji and Tianxian armies each have a hundred grenadiers and sky cannons.At this time, all the sky cannons gathered in Zhang Hongwei's Tianji army.

There are two hundred gunners in the sky, one is responsible for dropping bombs and the other is responsible for adjusting the angle.

"put!"

The soldiers who adjusted the angle quickly turned the small wheel on the barrel of the sky cannon, aimed at the hot air balloon in the sky, and shouted this word loudly.

The soldiers who dropped the bombs on the side put the shells into the sky cannon, quickly avoided and plugged their ears.

The mobility of the hot air balloon is short, and the balloon is quite large. After being targeted in this way, it is obviously difficult to survive.

Five hundred hot air balloons may seem like a lot, but in fact, it is not enough to feed a hundred sky cannons.

The hot air balloons of the imperial army of the Song Dynasty watched the fire from the other side, neither advancing nor retreating, waiting for work at ease.

The soldiers on the hot air balloon in Dali were very embarrassed, neither advancing nor retreating.Those who wanted to retreat were blocked by colleagues behind them.

Some hot air balloons collided with each other, then staggered, were hit by sky cannons, and fell towards the ground at the same time.

The [-] hot air balloons couldn't reach the sky above the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty at all.

On the top of the city, soldiers with command flags are already waving command flags.

The chief general's face turned red and white suddenly, he was furious and frightened at the same time.

Seeing his own hot air balloons falling towards the ground, he knew that the five hundred hot air balloons were useless.

And the consequences of this will be immeasurable.

Without hot air balloons, they would no longer be able to resist the hot air balloons of the imperial army of the Song Dynasty breaking through the city.

Originally their strongest support, they did not expect that in this short period of time, it turned out to be a weakness.

At this moment, the general is only praying that half of the five hundred hot air balloons will be left.Although he could no longer go out of the city, he could barely contain Song Jun's hot air balloon.

However, the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny.

Cannons continued outside the city.

The sky artillery soldiers scrambled to shoot the shells high into the sky.

Five hundred hot air balloons were lost at an extremely fast rate.

In just a short time, less than half of them remained.However, the maneuverability of the hot air balloon made them so chaotic in the air that it was difficult for them to even fly back to the city.

The faces of the generals in the city were all ugly.

Not surprisingly, these hot air balloons may be running out.

City east gate.

The city wall was still shaking slightly.

The artillery shells in the imperial army of the Song Dynasty seemed to be free of money, and kept pouring on the city wall.

Some just landed on the top of the city, exploded with a bang, and then even detonated the Thunderbolt nearby, already causing chaos on the top of the city.

Xiushan Army seemed to have been beaten.At this moment, they seemed to be the Yuan army who faced the Song Dynasty's Hong Tianlei with swords and guns.

Apart from staring?
What else can I do?

A scout found Zhao Liangcai who was standing in the middle of the street in the city, and reported in a hurry: "My lord, the east gate is tight!"

Zhao Liangcai didn't make any movement.

No matter how tight he is, he has no way to deal with it at this time.

Right now, it is almost impossible for the hot air balloons in the south to rush to the east gate to help them, even if they want to keep themselves.

Ah!
Zhao Liangcai smiled bleakly in his heart.

Song Junbing was divided into two places, one aimed at hot air balloons, and the other concentrated artillery fire to break through the city.This plan can be described as vicious, but extremely practical.

Now he only regrets that he was eager to win and allowed [-] hot air balloons to go to the south gate to destroy those hot air balloons of Song Dynasty.

If not, even if only dozens of hot air balloons were left in the city, the East City Gate would not be so passive at this time.

After a while, Zhao Liangcai said to the scouts kneeling on the ground: "Head the order to open the gates on the southeast side. All soldiers, fight out of the city!"

"My lord..."

The scout raised his head in surprise, and looked at Zhao Liangcai very puzzled.

Zhao Liangcai just snorted coldly, "This city can no longer be defended. We have more soldiers than them. Only by fighting out of the city at this time will we have a chance of winning!"

He obviously understood that he only needed to wait until the five hundred hot air balloons in the south of the city were destroyed.No matter how many soldiers they have in the city, if they insist on defending the city, they will only be bombed in vain.

It is undoubtedly the most correct decision to let the soldiers go out of the city to fight and fight the Song army face to face.

After that, not long after.Before the Song army could break through the city on both southeast sides, the two city gates creaked and suddenly opened.

But at this time, the five hundred hot air balloons in the sky seemed to be running out.There were only a hundred or so people who escaped the range of the sky cannon, but they were chased away by the hot air balloons of the Imperial Guards of the Song Dynasty, and they were fleeing in embarrassment.

Xiushan's army went out of the city.

The horseshoes rolled, bringing up bursts of yellow dust.

Under Zhao Liangcai's order, the Xiushan army in the city might really come out of the city.At the city gates on both sides of the southeast, more than ten thousand people left the city.

The number of soldiers is really much better than that of the Song army.

Ma Jun rushed forward, with arrogance.Behind, there are countless pawns.

Obviously there are capable people in the Dali army, otherwise, it would be difficult for the soldiers of the Dali army who have lived in peace for decades to have such an aura.

However, their aura did not cause any disturbance in the Song army.

On the east side of the city, grenadier soldiers were still firing at the city.

The horn suddenly rose.

The soldiers of the ten army formations shouted loudly and walked in unison.

Yellow dust billows.

The ten army formations originally arranged in a rectangular formation changed in an orderly manner under the command of the flag soldiers on the carriage.

Before the horse army in the city rushed to the front of the formation, the original rectangular formation had turned into a circular formation.

This circular formation is quite similar to the eight trigrams formation, except that the eight trigrams formation only has eight trigrams, but this circular formation is composed of ten small army formations.

The grenades are surrounded by a ring.

Soldiers in the front row of the army fell directly to the ground.

Immediately after the second row squats.

The third row is upright.

The cannon-throwing vehicles were also guarded in the ring formation like grenades.It's just that at this time, they all aimed at the soldiers rushing out of the city gate.

There are silver-armored generals in each army formation, holding their spears high in their right hands.Facing danger without fear.

"kill!"

Inside the big formation, beside Zhang Hongwei, there are several Wudingtang Anwei Halls enshrined and guarded, and there are hundreds of personal soldiers.He swung the gun with his left hand and yelled.

On the women's car, the flag soldiers waved the flag.

Dust billows.

The silver-armored general in the army formation facing the city gate was the first to wave his spear.

There was the sound of intensive gunfire.

Many Thunderbolts were thrown into the air by the artillery carts, drawing an arc, and falling towards the soldiers of the Xiushan Army who left the city.

The Shenlong guns in the hands of the soldiers in the first three rows of the formation vibrated slightly.

In an instant, soldiers of the Xiushan Army and horses fell off their horses.

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Immediately afterwards, while the soldiers in the first three rows were crawling to press the bullets, the soldiers in the two rows behind were also squatting or standing upright, and pulled the trigger in their hands.

Before Xiushan's cavalry had time to disperse outside the ring formation, hundreds of people might be lost.

But at the moment, obviously, no one would care so much.

The army out of the city rushed towards the ring formation with their guns on.

Some soldiers circled to the side of the ring formation, and some should be sharp knives, wanting to break through the formation with brute force, they charged directly at the ring formation.

Many of them are carrying thunderbolts.Moreover, it is also faintly visible that there are masters of the rivers and lakes looting among them.

Zhang Hongwei should be able to see these in the formation, but he is still as motionless as a mountain.

An army formation of ten thousand people, with countless firepower of Shenlong guns and artillery throwing vehicles, such an army formation cannot be easily broken by a mere master of the rivers and lakes.

Unless it is a real martial arts powerhouse, perhaps this is possible.

And at the south gate, the situation is roughly the same as here.

Although Liu Zhuwen's army dispatched all the grenade launchers to Zhang Hongwei's side, there were also a lot of cannon throwers and Shenlong blunderbuss.

In recent years, with the support of Zhao Dongting, the two departments of military science and military industry have grown at an extremely fast speed.These ordinary arms can already be said to have been popularized among the imperial guards of the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Zhuwen gently shook the paper fan like a scholar with a Confucian face.The eyes staring at the soldiers of Dali were as deep as the abyss, and the ancient well was calm.

Zhao Liangcai did not know when he boarded the Nanchengtou, which was not covered by artillery fire, and watched the Tianxian army arrange in a circular formation.His eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart was inevitably a little apprehensive.

He has already experienced the power of grenades and sky cannons.These two unique firearms of Song Dynasty made him feel chills.

At this time, the Shenlong Gun that his soldiers faced was also unique to the Song Dynasty.

This kind of improved firearm, I don't know how powerful it will explode.
