Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Five: The Power of One Shot

The next day, Zhao Yan received news from Yang Hong that the governor of Jinzhou Bai Lin once again invited the Shence Army to attack Xichengfu three days later and completely eliminate the Hongya army's rebels.

Zhao Yan only replied one sentence: Wait for news.

Zhao Yan was also waiting, he was waiting for a suitable weather.

On the evening of the third day, Zhao Yan lay on his back on the roof, staring at the stars in the sky in a daze, and suddenly felt a trace of cool breeze blowing by.

He looked up and saw that the stars in the night sky gradually became vague, and mist floated by in the low altitude.

"Swish!"

Zhao Yan sat up instantly with excitement, then returned to the house and said to Heiwa: "Heiwa, please inform Yang Hong quickly. Let him attack Xichengfu tomorrow. Just enter the city. Remember to bring that squattling tiger cannon. If Bai Lin, the governor of Jinzhou, can arrive at Xichengfu, let him go."

"Yes, young master!" Heiwa replied with great joy. He had been annoyed in this place for a long time.

The next day, it was just dawn.

Nearly 20,000 Shen Ce troops set out, and they expected to arrive at Xichengfu before noon. After receiving the message from Bai Ge, the governor Bai Lin also rushed to Xichengfu overnight.

As the governor of Jinzhou, he naturally had to participate in such a major event.

An hour later, the weather was bright and the sun rose again, and the sun was dazzling and almost stunning.

However, Zhao Yan, who knows a little bit of astrology, still feels that it is most likely to rain today. As long as his plan is successful today, the new policy of the Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely become an imperative trend and no one dares to stop it.

At this moment, Hong Chengan had gathered 20,000 Hongya troops.

Because he knew Bai Lin's nature well, this person has always been doing what he said and will definitely attack Xi Jingfu today.

"Brothers, if Bai Lin came with the Shen Ce Army today, we will let them see our power. They only have more than 20,000 people at most, and there are 60,000 people in the whole city. As long as we continue to resist, the people will hear our voices. Even if I die here today, I must let the people of the world know that the new policy is the culprit that has brought the destruction of my Great Zhou, and must be completely abolished..."

After Hong Chengan finished speaking, the Hong Yajun below immediately became motivated. In fact, these people were not for anything else, just to be able to have a full meal.

At present, they can still have enough food in the city, but if the Shence Army comes, they will not only not be able to eat, but they will even lose their lives.

Under such circumstances, the Hongya soldiers must have to do it.

At noon, Yang Hong came with the Shen Ce Army.

Except for the 1,000 soldiers stationed in Dahong County, the remaining nearly 20,000 Shence troops were all here, and they were all cavalrymen, with a particularly powerful momentum.

Yang Hong rode a tall horse and stopped on the ground three hundred meters away from the gate of Xichengfu. The prefect Bai Lin also brought more than a thousand people over.

Hong Chengan on the city gate was shocked and immediately let the Hongya army appear on the city tower in full armed manner. On the city wall, many giant trees and big stones were even used to prevent the soldiers outside from attacking the city through the ladder.

Bai Lin walked towards Yang Hong and bowed: "Secretary of Jinzhou, Bai Lin, please see Yang Shuai!"

Yang Hong waved his hand and said, "I'm exempted!"

"Yang Shuai, the lower officials have an insider arranged in the city. It is better for us to choose to attack at night, and we will definitely be able to defeat the traitors with the least damage!"

Yang Hong shook his head slightly and said, "No, no, I can enter the city in less than half an hour, and there will be no casualties."

Bai Lin looked suspicious and thought to himself: Just brag, the old military coach dared not say that.

Immediately, Yang Hong made a big move.

The squatting tiger cannon was carried less than 200 meters away from the city wall.

An hour ago, Zhao Yan sent an imperial guard to inform Yang Hong that the easiest way to attack the city was to bomb two shells, and he allowed Yang Hong to use shells to attack the city, but at most two can only be used.

Yang Hong was naturally very happy to be able to attack the city with a squatted tiger cannon. He had never fought such a confident siege in his life.

The gate of Xichengfu, in front of the squatting tiger cannon, was like a piece of thin paper.

He rode a tall horse and came to a place one hundred meters away from the city gate, shouting: "I am Yang Hong, the commander of the Great Zhou Shen Ce Army. He is ordered by Your Majesty to suppress the rebels. If you can surrender at this time, I can alleviate your crimes. If you do not surrender, I will be punished as a rebellion!"

Yang Hong's voice was loud and he had a touch of murderous aura.

After he finished speaking, the Hongya soldiers on the city wall felt a chill on such a hot summer day.

Hong Chengan strengthened his courage, then amplified his voice and said, "My Hongya Army represents the people. We ask to meet His Majesty and argue with him. Wouldn't he regard us as the people of the Great Zhou?"

Hong Chengan's tone was filled with anger, which sounded very arrogant.

He thought to himself: The book says that when two sides fight, only by becoming stronger first can they have more bargaining chips and force the other party to compromise step by step. When it comes to marching and fighting, I may not be able to compare with them, but when it comes to debate, they may be convinced by me!

Just as Hong Chengan was waiting for Yang Hong to continue speaking, Yang Hong waved his hand and made a gesture to Zhang Xuan, who was watching the tiger cannons not far away.

Zhang Xuan immediately understood and began to turn the gun mouth and aimed at the wall not far from the city gate in front. He and Yang Hong had already agreed that the first gun would hit the wall base, scare away the surrounding Hongya army first, and the second gun would hit the city gate directly.

Zhao Yan finally gave the opportunity to use the squat tiger cannon, so they naturally would not miss it.

Hong Chengan looked down at the city and saw a long object aiming at the city wall. He couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Just when he was confused, Yang Hong whispered: "Fire the cannon!"

The fuse ignites.

A black ball flew over.

boom!

This sound shook the sky and the earth, and there was a clear tremor within a radius of 500 meters!

This sound made countless people on the city wall dumbfounded, and then stood there in a hunch.

After the loud noise, dust flew up the base of the city wall, and then a pit with a diameter of nearly nine feet appeared in front of everyone.

A big hole was blasted out of the thick city wall. If there was another shot, it would definitely be blasted into the city.

"This...this...this..." Hong Chengan trembled all over. He was thinking about being able to debate with Yang Hong for a few more words. He never thought that the other party would not be able to make a void with him and directly blasted towards the city wall.

And this weapon was the first time they encountered it.

Bai Lin, who was standing beside Yang Hong, was also stunned, as if he had never seen the world before. If he had not seen this scene this year, he would not have believed that there was such a weapon in the world.

Swish!

The muzzle turned around and pointed to the city gate.

The city gate is much weaker than the city wall.

"Run!"

I don’t know who shouted, but the Hongya soldiers on the wall were in a mess and ran towards the rear.

At this time, in their eyes, nothing is important.
Chapter completed!
