If there were stone cannons on the city, one shot could break the ladder into two pieces...

Li Song felt a chill in his heart and quickly boarded the cloud carriage. Seeing that there were only Li Chengzhi and Li Shixian in the watchtower, as well as Li Cong and several other close associates of the Li family who were waiting for orders, he had no scruples.

Just as he was about to give advice, Li Chengzhi raised his hand, pointed at the city head and said, "Don't talk too much, come and take a look!"

Li Songshun's reputation was so high that he was shocked by the scene at the top of the city with just one glance.

There is not a single soldier on the huge city wall?

Where are the people?

Well, no, someone...

Most of Li Zhang's front brigade has moved to about a hundred paces, and the more agile artillerymen have set up the gun mounts and started testing the guns.

It happened that a grenade was thrown against the wall.

But the strange thing is that the thunder did not fall firmly, but slipped down?

Shouldn't it?

Li Song took a closer look and saw something fishy just by counting his breaths.

For some reason, the city head, which is more than ten feet wide, has turned into a slope. If a grenade is dropped, it will naturally slide away along the slope.

What’s even weirder is that if a grenade falls, the slope will actually rise and become more inclined?

Recalling the shouts on the city just now, Li Song instantly understood: That was not a slope at all, but a shield. There was a person hidden under the shield...

No wonder there are so many explosions below and inside the city, but the walls are as silent as death?

For a moment, Li Song felt like five thunders were hitting his head, as if his faith had collapsed.

He originally thought that just like conquering the city of Manchester, if he fired a few rounds at most, the defenders in the city would collapse without a fight.

But I didn’t expect that I would be guarded so easily?

"Lang Jun, why is this city wall... slanted?"

"Isn't this simple?"

Li Chengzhi replied unhurriedly, "Tear down the inner parapet and put up a wooden shield. The top of the wall will naturally become a slope. If the slope is not enough, just raise the outer parapet. You can make it as steep as you want."

How inclined can it be..."

"Quickly, how did Yuan Tsugu get so many and such wide wooden shields?"

"If the wooden shield is not enough, won't Yuan Ji take down the door panels of people's homes and the bottom of cars?"

Li Chengzhi couldn't help but sneered, "I think you are really stupid. If you are still confused, take a good look at this watchtower..."

Glancing at the roof of the car, which was like a roof, Li Song's old face suddenly turned red.

He only thought about the fact that the grenade was blocked, but for a moment he forgot that in this era, there were already ways to prevent stone cannons and stone bullets.

Just like rushing cars and watchtowers, the roofs of the cars are all sloped. If a stone bullet hits the city, the slope will remove most of the force.

Yuantatsu just applied this method to the city wall.

In comparison, there is not much difference between grenades and stone bombs. If they fall on a slope, they will still slide down.

Li Zhang couldn't do it so well that the grenade exploded as soon as it landed on the slope...

"What about the soldiers?"

Li Song asked unwillingly, "Thunder weapons are like divine punishment. They explode so close to each other. Why can the thieves on the wall ignore it as nothing?"

Frankly speaking, Li Songjue's actions can be described as prohibitive, and even the white-armored soldiers who regard death as their own will may not be able to do this.

Why can Mototsugi do it?

"The military prophecy says: Under the fragrant bait, there must be fish hanging; under the heavy reward, there must be a dead husband... It is nothing more than luring it with profit and forcing it with death..."

Li Chengzhi chuckled softly and said, "Moreover, there are many ignorant people in the city. It turned out to be as Yuan Ji said: Although the thunder is powerful, it can't hurt it at all. After one or two passes, I'm not afraid anymore..."<

/p>

Is it really that simple?

Li Song was so anxious that his vision went dark and his body couldn't stop shaking.

Not only did my faith collapse, but I lost all hope.

If it's what Lang Jun said, doesn't it mean that when it comes to attacking a city, this thunder weapon will be of no use at all?

No wonder he often warned himself: If there is a field battle, explosives will be harmful. But if you attack a city, thousands of kilograms of gunpowder are gathered in one place, and it is possible to blow through the city wall.

Moreover, the artillerymen need to brave the arrows to drill holes in the wall and fill all the explosives into the wall. Otherwise, at most they will just hear a sound and blow off a layer of skin...

"Hehehe..."

The more uncomfortable Li Song feels, the happier Li Chengzhi becomes.

He had been waiting for this day for a long time so that Li Song could wake up. He thought that as long as he had gunpowder in hand, there would be no single enemy in the world.

It's better than falling down and being unable to get up in the future...

"I told you a long time ago that explosives are not omnipotent. They can shock people's hearts when they are first used. If you are lucky, they can defeat the enemy without fighting. Just like you destroyed the Du Lun tribe, and you conquered Tou Man's army.

time.

But the more times it is used, the deeper the enemy and thieves will understand it. In the end, it is just a more powerful weapon... Just like Yuantuji, although he saw this object for the first time, after the Lu brothers described it,

Knowing that this thunder was man-made and not a punishment from heaven, I naturally became more courageous.

In addition, he has no way to retreat, so he has to think hard to take precautions. Therefore, it is not surprising that he can come up with these countermeasures!"

Li Chengzhi paused for a moment and looked at Li Song seriously, "You attack and he defends, it's natural. It's just to see which side's method is stronger... I just don't know if you can defeat his lightning protection method?"

Yes...

Li Song suddenly became energetic: "I still have rockets, which will definitely burn down Yuan Ji's shield wall!"

Li Chengzhi smiled and said: "Then use it!"

Li Song felt that his husband had evil intentions in his smile.
