With the west camp outside Guangling City, the noise and traffic became more and more active; after the snow, it became clearer and brighter, a team of fish and fish were also knocked on the camp that had just arrived in the west of the city.

"General Zhu, I have pulled all the firearms on the navy warships and those who can be pulled over. If the city goes east, my son will only use the ship as the moat walls and use swords, guns, bows and crossbows to think it corresponds!"

As one of the deputy generals of the Navy General Wang Chongba, Zhao Feng, the right-wing general of the Fifth Army, who seemed to be unable to hide his fatigue but was still cheerful and neat, also complained half-truely in front of Zhu Cun, who came to the court:

However, what he said was lightly, but just looking at the armor of the soldiers responsible for transport, as well as the corresponding livestock, gun racks, and the wheel hubs, we know how difficult and difficult it is to remove these heavy ship guns and other firearms from the fixed gun positions, and then trek through the snow and mud that detours from the east of the city.

"Let's rest assured, let's ask you to watch a big scene; the guards in the city who disciplined the city had no intention of breaking through... You see, everyone is almost ready."

Zhu Cun smiled slightly and waved: Then, as if it confirmed his words, Zhao Qi quickly looked sideways and was attracted by the new things in the camp.

Then Zhu Cun couldn't help looking at the great thing that gradually rose into the sky and provided some guidance for the array of strike troops that were ready for the formation. In the frame hanging down, someone was using the small hanging array flags to issue flags to guide the direction and shooting range of the corresponding gun group, and feedback the simple dynamics of the enemy hedgehogs on the top of the city one by one.

Such a great object, which was originally built with simple bamboo frames and cloth skins, combined with the sealing method of tung oil-adjusted gypsum and the hot air of barrels of wood carbon, had already created the most simple flying boat (hot air balloon) that could be briefly launched. He still remembers the first time he was shocked and horrified when he saw this thing when he saw this thing by the Grand Commander.

"Isn't this the ability to drive away gods and ghosts..."

"No, this is just the most basic ability to study things and learn knowledge..."

However, Zhou Huaian sighed with a little remembrance:

"As long as you master the fundamental way of the evolution of all things, even if you let hardware float on water, or steel soar in the sky, and attract the Nine Nether Earth Fire to people, it is not difficult."

"Good, can you tell me that Nalanda Temple in India have to study such secret techniques?"

Zhu Cun, who had been watching for a long time, squeezed out this sentence:

"Then let's say it another way."

Looking at the confused and at a loss around, Zhou Huaian couldn't help but sigh.

"This is actually just the old wisdom of Zhuge Wuhou, so his predecessor is also known as Kongming lantern..."

Now someone finally understood and suddenly showed a look of shock and horror.

"Is it the Prime Minister Zhuge who supported Ji Han and devoted himself to his death in "The Legend of Yi Lie of the Three Kingdoms"?"

"That's right, it's Zhuge Kongming who died before he succeeded, making the heroes cry...."

Zhou Huaian couldn't help but touch his nose and said.

"Although I have passed away for a long time, I have many magical techniques to pass on the inheritance of future generations. I happened to have a little bit of it."

On the spot, the value of respect and worship increased. Of course, as the Taiping Army's territory became increasingly vast and the manpower and material resources were abundant, the materials for making this flying boat have become thinner silk and Eucommia glue, and the more vibrant and longer-lasting refined charcoal powder has greatly increased the time for floating, and there is no need to use it frequently alternately.

Moreover, in order to deter the enemy and make more visible, many tin foils are attached to the surface of the flying boat that are thinner than paper. Under the contrast of the sunlight and snow cast in the clouds, it looks like silver-white and bright and reflective, which makes people unable to ignore but dare not look directly at it.

"What's this? Is the magic of Taiping Thief?"

And on the Guangling West Gate Tower and the city plate, which were the first to be hit, there were also turmoil everywhere and all kinds of panic and rushing around to tell each other:

"There will be a fire. Could it be a magic weapon of some kind of lightning strike?"

"Tai Platinum Venus, this is the appearance of Too Platinum Venus..."

"Amitabha... Sunlight Bodhisattva..."

"The Infinite Heavenly Lord is above..."

"The Great Saint Puzun Mishihe, quickly eliminate evil delusions!"

In the camp ahead of the city, above the earthen trunks and high platforms, the flags and commands that were originally waving were exposed one after another in the sound of flags and commands. They were exactly where the preset gun positions were located. As long as they were dragged up from the rear along the ramp paved with horizontal wood, they could be immediately put into combat use.

"The head of the Holy Son is in the right seat of the Father, and his seat is beyond immeasurable height,

The master wished that he would beg for the crowd and descend to the raft to avoid the fire river.

The master is my kind father, and the master is my holy master.

The master is our Dharma King, and the master can save everyone.”

As the strike army's artillery craftsman, Bai Duolu, also stood behind a brand-new big cannon cart with strange shapes, looking at such a strange thing in the sky and chanting a prayer in a slight voice:

The body tube of this cannon is particularly thick and short, and the front end opening is one and a half feet, so the corresponding equipment, vehicles and supporting medicine are extremely huge. Not only do you need four horses to accompany you on weekdays, but you also need two or three people to work together to complete the loading when you arrive in front of the formation.

At this time, Zhu Cun, who was surfing and watching in front of the formation, also received another message from Li Yuyuan:

"You are the general, and someone has shot books on the top of the city one after another. I hope you can discuss the matter of surrendering to Kaicheng..."

"No need to pay attention to him, just attack him directly... It's time to this point, no matter whether his heart is true or false, it's meaningless."

Zhu Cun said without hesitation:

Before he finished speaking, the first round of calibration test firing had begun before the formation was filled with a burst of dust flying in front of the formation and the surging roar of fireworks. Bai Duolu was also stumbled behind the cannon in front of him, and his face was covered with sand and ashes.

But he was as if he was not aware of his eyes, leaning on the long benchmark with his breath, and trying hard to watch and estimate the landing point of the gunfire in the distance. He didn't know that after a very long moment, he saw a position wrapped in bricks on the upper edge of the city wall in the distance suddenly cracked, and in the large pieces of broken and peeling dust, a small and small god left behind the tank entrance to see only the defects of the gray rammed earth wall inside.

At this moment, the shelling was like a head-on opening. In an instant, many cannons immediately hit the hundreds of steps of the city wall centered on the western gate of Guangling. Although most of them were unable to shoot over the wall due to the low calibration shooting range for a while, or caused intuitive casualties in the middle city disc.

But the tall and thick wall surface of Guangling City was exposed out of thin air, leaving behind many large and small defects that were as terrible as pockmarks. It even caused a scream and howling sound on the top of the city.

"The landslide is collapsing..."

"Thunder..."

"The sky is falling..."

"The city wall is about to collapse"

"Too Platinum Venus is angry"

And amid the panic and violent clamor and the roar that followed like thunder; Yang Xingmin, who was awakened from the Great Governor's Office of Huaiyang and Huainan Jieya on Shugang, was barefoot in the leather robe and armor-piercing manner, also rode his horse towards the Ximen battlefield surrounded by left and right.

At least he was personally planning and dispatching and unable to rest well during the suppression, he also took a nap in the early morning for a while; he received the bad news that the thief army, which had been quiet and silent for a long time, suddenly launched a siege. He rushed over without hesitation and dressing up.

However, when his parents led him ran through the deserted and cold streets and bridges under the inner walls of Zicheng, and were about to arrive near Xijiaomen, there was a fierce roar like a rushing outside the city, just like a rolling thunder from afar in the summer storm, with the twinkling lightning rising from afar, rumbling constantly in the sky above the west of Guangling City.

It turned into various explosions and splashes on the top of the west city wall, with dust flying and rising fireworks rolling, as well as various fierce roars and screams that could not suppress fear and panic, and shouts of scolding and anger that were both harsh or harsh on the outside but weak on the inside. The huge city seemed to have become a pot of porridge.

Then there was the earth-shaking shouts of killing, as if the tide of Qiantang River was overwhelming, and in an instant, it overwhelmed all the noises in Guangling City. It also made Yang Xingmin's mount, whose mounts were galloping in the speeding, suddenly slowed down and stopped in fear. Even the treasure horse under Yang Xingmin's crotch was no exception, and he was wandering around and refused to move forward again.

You should know that this treasure horse was shining white at night. However, the farewell ceremony given by Cao Quanshi, the governor of Tianping Army and Jiangxi, before he decided to go north to the disaster, was also a sophisticated mount with a spiritual and spiritual experience in the battle formation. But he didn't expect to be afraid of the formation here. Yang Xingmin couldn't help but become more angry, and struggled to whine the blood on the horse's back and still hesitated...

However, the next moment, a faint roar suddenly passed through the air, and something fleeting suddenly passed; then, just cursing about bad luck and discomfort, Yang Xingmin, who had just jumped off his horse and walked forward, was surrounded by an uncontrollable scream and his pupils, and suddenly saw a building not far from the street splashing out from the sky, and then disintegrated and collapsed in fragments.

The smoke and dust that fell down suddenly enveloped the small section of streets that they were about to drive forward. Even with Yang Xingmin's calmness, his face changed, and he looked at the mount with blood marks on his back with heartache, but he knew that he had been saved by its perception as a beast.

However, the next moment, Yang Xingmin, who gave up his mount and continued running, saw the west gate tower in front of him again, once again shrouded in many slender smoke traces flying into the air, and was submerged in the rising fires one after another.

In an instant, the Ximen Tower, which was mainly composed of wooden structures, still carved beams and painted buildings, turned into a large torch burning out of thin air; and many human bodies that ran away like ants and rolled out; and some people even jumped straight from the wall under the urging of fireworks.
