Chapter 257: Cloud Cannon Truck

Han Yuqing said that he used siege and fire attack and earth attack, and Qin Guan agreed very much.

Now the river water is frozen and the water cannot be attacked. It is cold and the plague is not effective at all, and the tunnel cannot be dug. As for the noise and spy infiltration, these are means of long-term warfare, so there is no hurry for the time being.

Siege the city, double the internal pressure of the enemy.

As for fire attack, this is what Qin Guan is best at.

Qin Guan immediately ordered to set up a stone thrower to let the Liao people enjoy the power of the explosive pack first.

Above the city of Zhongjing, the left prime minister Yelu Longyun, the right prime minister Chu Jian, the commander of Zhongjing defense general Xiao Yilu, and a group of ministers and generals all climbed to the city to check the situation of the Zhao army.

As the saying goes, there are ten thousand people, boundless and unobstructed, and hundreds of thousands of people, and they are all connected to the sky.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered outside the city, with flags waving and people shouting and horses neighing. The scene was very shocking, but these people had seen big scenes, so naturally they would not be scared to their legs when they saw this scene.

The Northern Army was already driving the Liao soldiers to collect snow and stones.

Qin Guan made a lot of wooden boxes, put the snow inside and slurped it in, and then it turned into pieces of snow bricks. This trick is very useful.

Yelu Longyun was a little thin, and his wide official uniform was whistling by the wind, but he stood straight, looking at the movements of the Zhao army below, and said, "The Zhao army captured 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and civilians. It seems that he is going to drive them to fill the land and make a way. These are all our people."

Right Prime Minister Chu Jian said with a cold face: "When fighting against Zhao Bing, he didn't know how to fight to the death and was willing to be captured, he should have this awareness."

At this time, a general pointed to the distance and shouted: "Look at that side, Zhao Jun seems to be assembling a stone throwing machine."

After the stone-throwing machine was assembled, the Northern Route Army began to push these chariots forward and stopped about 500 meters away from Zhongjing City. Hundreds of chariots lined up, and the soldiers lit braziers in an orderly manner, put on winches, and prepared explosive packs.

There is no hurried feeling.

But the Liao ministers and generals on the top of the city were twitching, and someone said, "This is not the kind of weapon that can explode in the siege of the Zhao army."

Someone nodded and said, "It's probably true."

"How about we take the head of the city, it is said that this thing is very dangerous."

At this time, the left prime minister Yelu Longyun said, "In the future, we will face the Zhao army's weapon. If we don't know how to deal with it, we will observe carefully here, and it is best to find out the solution."

Yelu Longyun had just finished speaking when the Northern Army began shelling.

"The first round of volleys attacked the city defense in the capital, and shot."

"shoot!!!"

Wow, hundreds of round explosive packs flew towards the top of Zhongjing like meteors.

The soldiers of the Liao Kingdom watched these explosive packs fly to their eyes, and suddenly exploded, and countless people died tragically on the spot.

"Boom~"

A shell accidentally landed in a place where officials gathered.

Explode with a bang.

The explosion's shock wave and the iron nails shot inside suddenly became death talismans, knocking down a large number of these Liao ministers.

"My mother."

"I'm going to die."

"Just hurry up and be the Prime Minister."

The bomb killed more than a dozen Liao officials, including the right prime minister Chu Jian, and the city wall was in chaos.

Even though he is still daring to stand on the top of the city and watch the scenery under the shelling, he is a model of not being afraid of death.

No one thought about any strategy to defeat the enemy anymore. Everyone who could run away flocked to it.

"The second round of scattering is aimed at the city, and the longest distance is projected."

"Boom boom boom boom."

Bombs rage in Zhongjing.

"The third round of scattering the city head..."

The artillery was constantly bombarding, and the Zhao army began to drive away the Liao prisoners, approached the city wall, and threw snow bricks and stones into the moat with their shoulders and hands.

When the Liao Dynasty guard saw it, he immediately ordered: "Shoot the arrow and shoot all these people to death."

"Swoosh swish swish"

"Swoosh swish swish."

Countless arrows fell from the city head, and the river bank was only forty or fifty meters away from the city wall. It was the best attack range of archers. Suddenly, countless Liao prisoners fell to the ground and died tragically.

When the prisoners behind saw it, countless people shouted: "We are from Liao, don't kill us."

The soldiers guarding the city did not hesitate at all, because they knew that if they did not shoot these people, and if Zhongjing City was captured, their fate would be even worse than these people.

"Cum, shoot me hard."

Puff puff puff puff.

Countless arrows shot on the Liao soldiers, and soon there was a blockbuster, with an estimated 3,000 or 5,000 people. Some Liao soldiers fell directly down from the moat and became part of the roadbed.

After the prisoners were shot and killed, they threw down the stones and ran back desperately. Xue Mu's face darkened and asked Xiong Er beside him, "General II, do you want to kill a group of people?"

Xiong Er smiled and said, "Don't worry, the young master said before that if the Liao Dynasty guards the city, we don't have to punish these prisoners. Let's give them a glimmer of hope of living. Look, the eldest brother will defeat the Liao army guards on the cityside in a while, and we are driving them away."

As he was talking, he saw the stone thrower troops launching shelling again.

"Boom boom boom..."

With continuous explosions, hundreds of Liao troops were killed in the top of the capital.

Seeing this scene, Xiong Er said: "You can let them continue to go."

Xiong Da looked into the distance and said to Qin Guan: "Young Master, the efficiency of those prisoners filling the soil is too low."

Qin Guan Xiaoxiao: "Anyway, it's all profitable."

They are all from Liao. He doesn't care if he is dead. Even if they are all dead, no one will feel distressed. They will throw their bodies into the moat as a roadbed.

At noon, the Northern Army rested and started cooking, and the prisoners also received dry food. The soldiers of the Northern Army could drink hot broth. Don’t think about these Liao prisoners, they could only have dry food and snow.

Continue attacking in the afternoon,

Continue attacking at night.

Two days later, the three passages leading to the city gate had already advanced more than ten meters of soil filling, and the results were quite good. However, tens of thousands of prisoners in Liao Kingdom also died. Qin Guan was polite to them and asked the craftsman camp to build a batch of simple wooden shields for them, which reduced the losses.

However, Qin Guan is not satisfied with some things.

He called the commander of the marshal's weapon camp and asked, "But there are larger stone throwers. Now the stone throwers can only hit the outer city. It would be great if there were anyone who could hit the inner city."

"The Grand Marshal does have a larger stone throwing machine, called the "Yuncai Vehicle", and the range can reach about 2,300 and 400 meters." The commander of the craftsman camp replied.

Qin Guan's eyes lit up, "You can make it."

"We know how to build, but we don't bring that big wood. We need to go into the mountains to find the right wood. It takes about three days to build a cloud cannon truck. I saw it when I came. There are a few pine and hazel trees in the mountains that are very suitable."
