The Qin army soldiers did not attack the city at all, but chose to directly suppress the artillery fire. The artillery was fired far above the Cao army's bow and arrow on the city wall. Now the Cao army on the city wall has no power to fight back at all.

Outside the city, there were continuous sounds of cannons roaring. Some cannonballs hit the city walls, and after several consecutive shots, they collapsed the walls.

Many Cao's army blocked under the battlements of the city walls were buried by the broken gravel.

Although most shells hit the city walls, occasionally one or two shells would fall into the crowd.

Once a shell fell into the crowd, it can be said that there was no living person within a radius of several feet. Those Cao's soldiers who were unlucky were at the center of the explosion were directly bombarded into meat paste.

The Qin army's artillery was only used when entering the palace of Dongwu. Therefore, this was the first time that the Qin army used artillery against the Cao army.

When Yu Jin was truly facing the power of the cannon, he realized that the power of the cannon was so terrible.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

At the bottom of Zhuo County, more than 30 Qin army artillery were still roaring, continuously firing shells onto the city wall.

Yu Jin lay on the city wall and looked at him secretly. He wanted to see which weapon was so powerful.

Yu Jin became more and more frightened as he looked at, and he became more and more frightened as he looked at. Just thirty cannons were so powerful. If there were three hundred or three thousand, wouldn’t the Qin army sweep the world?

"The power of this weapon is so great that it must be very expensive to build. I think the Qin army may not be able to be equipped in large quantities!" Yu Jin thought so in his mind.

In fact, Yu Jin's guess is really correct. It is really difficult for the Qin army to equip artillery.

The artillery is not easy. Although the manufacturing process is not simple for this era, the artillery can be used continuously after all.

As long as you care and maintain it properly when using it, it can last for a long time.

But shells are different. They are disposable consumables, and shells are different from bows and arrows. After the bows and arrows are fired, they can still be recycled after winning battles. There is no way to recycle shells.

When a cannon fires, it will cost ten thousand taels of gold. This is not just a statement. Using cannons is an extremely stressful measure for the finance department.

Moreover, there is another disadvantage of artillery, which is that it is caused by cavalry. Once the cavalry team breaks through the artillery position, the slow-moving artillery will become a target of fire.

Artillery is a miraculous effect when attacking cities, and it is barely possible to deal with infantry, but it cannot be used to deal with cavalry.

If you want to deal with cavalry, you still have to use a musket. And it cannot be a more primitive bore gun, at least it is a flintlock gun that fires fixed-loading bullets.

Now, under the leadership of Huang Yueying, Li Chen's arsenal has begun to develop fixed-loading bullets and flintlock rifles in a intensive manner.

Of course, fixed-loading bullets and flintlock rifles have technical barriers for this era. If you want to successfully develop the R&D, you have to overcome this technical barrier bit by bit.

Once the flintlock rifle fired a fixed-loading ammunition is equipped with the army, the time for Li Chen to unify the world will naturally be ripe.

In this battle, Cao's army was frightened. You can't even touch others, you can only be beaten passively. This is indeed a headache.

Outside the city, the thirty Qin army cannons were still roaring, but the city walls of Zhuo County were no longer able to stand.

The city walls on the city wall were blasted out dozens of gaps, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the city walls.

The damage to the city wall is not the most terrifying thing. What makes Yu Jin feel most powerless is that the Cao army soldiers are cowardly.

"Thor!"

"The Qin army invited Thunder God!"

"God is thundering to help the Qin army, we can't win!" Many Cao army's mentality has collapsed and they screamed and cried.

Now, the morale of the soldiers is disintegrating, which is what Yu Jin is most worried about. Once the artillery fire stops, it is undoubtedly the time when the Qin army attacks. Then, how can these already scared soldiers resist the Qin army's attack?

After another continuous incense burning for about a stick of incense, the artillery fire outside the city gradually became much thinner. Due to the long-term launch, some of the gun barrels had already begun to heat up, and even if they were cooled with cold water, it was too late.

In this case, the artillery that has already heated cannons can only temporarily stop firing shells. After all, if the barrel is hot, forcibly firing shells is dangerous.

Listening to the roar of cannons gradually became sparse, Chen Qingzhi immediately issued an order.

"Several generals, siege the city!"

Under the cover of artillery fire, Qin infantry carried the ladder and began to rush towards the edge of the city.

"Hurry, shoot arrows, shoot arrows!" Yu Jin saw the Qin soldiers under the city approaching with a ladder, and immediately shouted and ordered Cao troops to release arrows to stop the Qin infantry under the city from approaching.

However, at this time, many of the Cao army soldiers were scared to death. In response to the ban, there were only a few soldiers. Most of the Cao army soldiers were huddled under the walls, so they did not dare to show their heads.

This is the power of long-range fire suppression. I can hit you, but you can only stare at you. The most important point is that under the suppression of long-range fire, the Qin army infantry can easily approach the city wall.

"Kill, kill, kill."

Under the cover of artillery fire, during the Qin army, the ladder of the Qin army's infantry had already been laid on the city wall of Zhuo County.

Nowadays, the entire Zhuo County can be said to be in danger.

The ladder was placed on the city wall, and the Qin army soldiers climbed up the ladder one after another.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin's artillery outside the city had also been shut down. At this time, the artillery shells could no longer be fired, otherwise it would be possible to hurt one's own people if it was not good.

"Get up, get up."

"Stop the enemy, stop the enemy!" Yu Jin waved the sword in his hand and roared.

However, even though the Qin army artillery fire had stopped, many Cao army soldiers still felt "buzzing" in their ears, and many people's heads were shaken like a ball of paste by the explosion.

General Cao's army looked at the ordinary soldiers who were stunned, and kicked them as soon as they saw people, and kicked them up alive.

However, it was too late to delay such a delay.

At this time, the city walls were already densely filled with Qin soldiers rushing up, and they were surging up like a tide.

The Qin army's ladders were very cleverly placed, all of which were stomped on the stomp of the city wall that had been blown up, so that the Qin army would be more convenient for climbing.

Under normal circumstances, these Cao family soldiers are not opponents of the Qin army, let alone their morale is disintegrating now, which is even worse than the Qin army.

When the troops of Qin and Wei sides were paired up, the Cao family generals were shattered at once, and they were no match for the Qin soldiers.
