People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 432 Fireworks burst out, kill as much as you want

The huge rolling stone kept rolling in mid-air, and Li Xuan stared fixedly at the city wall.

The rolling stone that was supposed to fall on the well fence, suddenly, an inexplicable force appeared, the rolling stone passed over the top of the well fence, and then slammed down from mid-air.

With a sound of "boom", the rolling stone slammed heavily on the catapult behind the well fence, smashing the catapult into pieces in an instant.

After a while, some Ye Wanwan's expressions suddenly changed, and she suddenly looked to one side.

At this time, Hu Guang stepped forward while staring at Ye Wanwan, and personally moved a smaller stone into the basket of the catapult.

Immediately afterwards, he had already stepped forward, started to operate Wangshan himself, and finally waved his hand vigorously.

The next moment, a huge rolling stone flew directly from the catapult,
The rolling stone kept rolling in mid-air, and finally smashed hard on the city wall.

Amidst the loud noise, a catapult on the right side of Li Xuan's body was smashed to pieces.

Many soldiers around were cut and bruised by the splashed wood chips.

The soldiers hurried over to repair the catapult, at this moment, Li Xuan's steady voice rang in the ears of these soldiers: "Stay back!"

These soldiers looked towards Li Xuan subconsciously, and saw Li Xuan looking at them coldly.

These soldiers didn't dare to hesitate any longer, they just cupped their hands and walked down quickly.

In the urn city below the city gate tower, Feng Hua immediately took over these soldiers and quickly incorporated them into his subordinates.

On the top of the city gate, the rolling stones were still rolling, but Li Xuan's eyes were more focused on the haystacks, wood piles, kerosene, and rockets behind him.

With a sound of "boom", a rolling stone hit the catapult on the other side.

All of a sudden, the catapult was smashed to pieces, and there was a burst of cheers from under the city wall.

However, they didn't notice at all that since before, the number of rolling stones thrown by the catapult has dropped a lot.

More rolling stones fell towards the city wall, but at this time, Li Xuan personally directed all the archers under him to hide behind the female wall.

The bows and arrows on the city wall began to thin out in an instant.

The Tianyin priests and soldiers under the city wall felt it immediately.

They quickly pushed Jinglan towards the gate tower, regardless of whether there was anything wrong here.

For them, occupying the gate tower, although they cannot quickly open the city gate and occupy the closed city, but if they capture the gate tower, the condescending advantage of the defenders in the city will disappear in an instant.

The two sides have returned to the balance of power, and the rest is to grind slowly.

Are there so many of them afraid of grinding?

For a moment, an unknown number of people began to swarm towards the city wall, and on the top of the city, at this time, the counterattack force was already very weak.

Zhang Wanyu stood a little later, and even from the beginning, she was not within the range of the catapult on the city wall.

At this moment, Zhang Wanyu keenly sensed something was wrong.

There is something wrong with the weak counterattack on the city wall, they are too weak too fast.

For Nanchang King's scheming, Zhang Wanyu felt very clearly.

How could she not know that above the city gate, even if she encounters difficulties, Li Xuan will definitely have more helpers to make up for it.

But now, it's as if these backhands don't exist at all, how is this possible.

So this must be a trap.

Zhang Wanyu just wanted to order everyone to stop, but for a while she didn't know what to say.

Could it be that because I felt that the reaction on the city wall was abnormal, I thought it was a trap, and then told everyone to stop moving forward?
I'm afraid that as soon as this reason is said, everyone will make a fuss.

Zhang Wanyu is a woman after all, she is still a step behind in terms of determination.

During this hesitation, Jing Lan was getting closer and closer to the city wall.

Feeling all this, Li Xuan on the city wall made a sneer from the corner of his mouth.

Looking up and looking at the many archers behind the parapet, his hand suddenly raised.

Li Xuan's right hand dropped quickly.

The next moment, dozens of long arrows were thrown into the air at the same time, and in a blink of an eye they landed behind the well fence, and shot through the throats of several soldiers at once.

Many more soldiers were wounded by him.

The four catapults all stopped operating at this moment.

Four figures stepped out from behind the parapet at the same time, aimed at Xu Shan and the others on the well fence, and quickly shot four long arrows.

"Duoduoduo!" Except for Xu Shan who was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, the others were all shot through their throats at once.

"Throw dead grass, firewood, fire the rocket, pour kerosene, throw dry grass, firewood, pour water!"

Li Xuan's order came down in an orderly manner, and everyone on the city wall threw the dry grass and wood down without the slightest hesitation.

Piles of dry grass and firewood were quickly ignited and burned fiercely on the mountain road.

However, what was thrown down next were all wet grass and firewood that had been poured out of water.

Although these things were quickly ignited, more smoke was emitted.

The smoke was not strong at first, but at this moment, the wind picked up.

The smoke spread in all directions at first, but soon, with a "huh", almost all the smoke rushed towards the north in an instant.

In a very short period of time, the hundreds of meters of the mountain road were already covered with thick smoke, and it was still spreading rapidly backwards.

Coughing, flustering, and a large group of people immediately rang out.

At this time, although the people behind Jing Lan were still pushing hard, their progress was already very slow.

"Command, throw stones!"

With Li Xuan's order, Feng Hua in the urn city waved without hesitation.

The next moment, more than a dozen catapults with different fronts and backs were facing the outside of the Guancheng at the same time, and hurled rolling stones fiercely.

With a sound of "boom", several rolling stones hit the well fence heavily in succession. The huge force made the people pushing behind feel numb for a while. At this moment, behind everyone, there was a sudden sound Big bang and big bang.

The other huge boulders had crossed the well at this time and smashed heavily into the crowd.

The wailing sounded instantly.

The intense smoke made it impossible for them to see how many stones were thrown across the well.

It is also unclear how serious the killings of the Rolling Stones were, and how many people they injured.

But soon, they ignored these people.

Because there was another huge roar, and the heavy boulder had once again slammed down on the well rail.

The violent shaking made everyone understand that it would not take long for these well rails to be completely blown down.

At that time, these people...

"Hey, it's getting hotter and hotter...fire, fire, run away..."

Thick red light suddenly appeared in the thick smoke, perhaps rushed towards them quickly, and then quickly burned the eyes.

Although the well fence was covered with cowhide, due to the rush of time, the cowhide and the whole well fence were not given much fire protection treatment, so under the high temperature of the flame, several well fences were quickly ignited.

The wind, the wind.

A violent gust of wind was suddenly generated between the sky and the earth, and then quickly rushed towards the rear along the mountain path.

In a very short period of time, thick smoke spread over several miles of mountain roads.

Seeing this sudden change, Zhang Wanyu was stunned.

At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Zhang Wanyu's arm, and Ye Wanwan's voice came immediately: "Order, the front team does not move, keep moving forward, the rear team changes to the front team, and retreat in an orderly manner without confusion. The chaotic beheaded..."

"Send the order, the front team does not move, continue to move forward, the rear team changes to the front team, retreat in an orderly manner, don't be confused, and those who are in chaos will be killed..." Zhang Wanyu almost subconsciously repeated Ye Wanwan's words, her profound skill made her voice clear Incomparable sounds in everyone's ears.

"Let's retreat too, slow down and hold our ground." Ye Wanwan held Zhang Wanyu down.

Although she was already surrounded by thick smoke and rolling stones fell from her head from time to time, Ye Wanwan still maintained her calm.

……

On the city wall, Li Xuan watched all this calmly.

Ye Wanwan's voice rang in his ears almost clearly, but Li Xuan was completely indifferent.

Meteorites kept falling one after another above the head, and quickly extended to further distances.

More firewood and hay were thrown down, some even by catapults.

Flames immediately flared up in the rear.

The thick smoke became more intense.

Even if the soldiers of Tianyin sect wanted to escape, they couldn't escape much.

In addition to the killing of the Rolling Stones, the panic caused by their own people and the countless pushing and trampling were stronger killers.

"Archers, scatter at will." Li Xuan issued a more cruel order indifferently.

Although the thick smoke almost covered everyone's sight, the archers themselves depended on their ears for food, and a slight sound from the thick smoke could immediately attract their attention.

There was a loud "boom", and amidst the flames, a well rail was directly smashed by rolling stones.

Seeing this scene, Li Xuan knew in her heart that the overall situation was settled.

"Continue to throw wet grass and firewood. I want to see whether it is people running faster or the wind running faster." Li Xuan turned her head, and her cold eyes fell directly on the man not far behind On Qi Guang.

Qi Guang shuddered suddenly, and then quickly cupped his hands: "Observe the order!"

Those who are responsible for the frontal fighting on the city wall are basically the soldiers of the Kuaiji Prefecture. After the soldiers are killed or injured, they will recruit new soldiers from the Wuzhou soldiers on the spot. If the number of Wuzhou soldiers is insufficient, they will be selected from the Lanxi soldiers. Make supplements.

Those who excel in combat among the government soldiers were proposed by Qiu Zhenmu and specially approved by Li Xuan to join Qianniuwei.

"Brother Qiu, Brother Zhou!" Li Xuan looked at Qiu Zhenmu and Brother Zhou on both sides, and said solemnly: "Tell brother, get ready to attack."

When Li Xuan said a word, Qiu Zhenmu and Zhou Shen's eyes lit up, and they both cupped their hands at the same time: "Follow the order!"

Yan Tao immediately looked over dryly, and Li Xuan looked at him with some amusement: "Brother Yan, you have eaten most of the credit, how about leaving some soup for others."

It was Yan Tao's people who stood on the city wall all the time, and it was Yan Tao's people who killed the most Tianyin priests.

Li Xuan believed that in Wang Qin's credit list at the rear, Yan Tao and his soldiers definitely contributed the most.

After dismissing Yan Tao, Li Xuan looked up the mountain road again.

The flames on the mountain road are getting darker and darker, but the smoke is getting thicker and thicker.

Li Xuan raised her head, and the whistling sound of the strong wind could be clearly heard in the sky above her head.

Gusts of wind swept by, and the smoke was even carried tens of miles away.

Even the sky has darkened at this time.

Looking down from the city wall at this time, you can't tell how many people are still alive in the smoke below.

With a "bang", the last bundle of wet firewood was thrown down hard.

Li Xuan said fiercely: "Send the order, the catapults stop shooting."

With a "creak", in the urn below the city, more than a dozen catapults stopped bombarding in an instant.

At this moment, footsteps came from below, and Qiu Zhenmu and Zhou Shen each led a team to the city wall.

"Your Majesty!" Hundreds of people bowed to Li Xuan at the same time.

"Decree, after half an hour of hunting, no matter what, return immediately. After the three drums, those who delay the return will be exempted from all merits,"

"During this period, let's kill as much as we want!"
