Chapter 241 Commander, we suffered heavy losses.

"How is the preparation for the trebuchet?"

"Commander, there are 100 trebuchets in total."

Qin Guandian nodded, these one hundred trebuchets are enough.

"How are the preparations at the firearms camp going?"

"Commander, the firearms camp has prepared 1,000 explosive packets."

One thousand is enough.

Qin Guan planned to launch a bombing operation against Xijin Prefecture using explosive packets. It didn't matter how many enemies were destroyed, just to act as a deterrent and let the Liao people deeply feel the power of the explosive packets.

Qin Guan asked the pyrotechnics craftsmen to improve these explosive packets, especially in terms of fuzes. How far away the fuzes will burn requires calculation. However, this does not trouble these fireworks guys. It only takes a short time for them to do it.

A suitable fuse was found.

Qin Guan, wearing an overlord's armor and a sword at his waist, stood on the general stage and gave an order with great momentum: "All generals listen to the order and bombard the Xijin Mansion."

All the generals bowed together and said, "Respect the commander-in-chief's order."

Han Yuqing raised her head and saw Qin Guan standing on the general stage with high spirits, and she felt a sense of admiration in her heart.

This is my man.

With both civil and military talents, it is really difficult to find such a person in the world.

"Hey yo, hey yo."

The soldiers pushed the heavy trebuchet forward slowly, and soon they were about 500 meters away from the city wall of Xijin Prefecture.

Then he stopped and did not move forward.

There are dozens of people waiting on each trebuchet, and dozens of people behind are responsible for carrying explosive packages.

"Light the brazier!"

Whoosh, whoosh, the brazier is lit.

The trebuchet was ready and waiting for the order. Qin Guan raised his hand and secretly looked at the luminous hands on his watch. It was 10 o'clock in the evening, the time was right.

"Start shelling."

Commands are passed down layer by layer.

"The commander ordered the bombardment to begin."

"The commander ordered the bombardment to begin."

"..."

A bag of about ten kilograms of explosives was put in the pocket, and someone lit the fuse with a torch. The fuse made a chirping sound, and everyone gave the first order, "Fire." I saw countless explosive bags flying toward Xijin with sparks.

Mansion.

Sparks and lightning all the way.

...

Yeluqi had just inspected the city wall defenses. After knowing that Qin Guan was on the opposite side, he became more serious about it. Regardless of any slack, after dinner, he called several generals over to study how to annihilate Qin Guan's Zhao army.

"Have the four cities of Miaoyin, Yongqing, Changping, and Fanshan notified them?" Yeluqi asked.

"Commander, we have informed them to be ready. As long as the commander gives the order, we can send troops to encircle the Zhao army."

Yeluqi shook his head and said, "Don't be careless, I always have a bad feeling in my heart."

At this moment, a soldier ran in and reported: "Commander, Zhao Jun has taken action."

Yeluqi stood up and said, "Let's go and have a look."

A group of people came to the city wall and saw Zhao Jun advancing. Although they couldn't see clearly from a distance, they had been marching and fighting for many years, so they could guess a bit. Someone said: "Zhao Jun seems to be ready."

Trebuchet.”

Yelu Qicai ordered: "Tell the soldiers to be on guard, as the Zhao people may attack the city at night."

"yes."

Not long after, the Zhao army set off a fire, and Yelu Qicai was a little confused. But at this moment, he saw sparks flying in the direction of Xijin Mansion, and Yelu Qicai suddenly felt angry and unhappy.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom~~~"

Some explosive packs landed on the top of the city, and the explosion was so powerful that some soldiers who were close to them were blown into several pieces.

Coo coo coo.

There were constant explosions.

Many Liao soldiers had no idea what was going on, and were sent to the sky by explosive packs.

By coincidence, an explosive package flew directly to the city gate tower. Yeluqi watched as the explosive package penetrated into the city gate tower, and then exploded with a loud roar, blowing off the entire roof of the city gate tower.

Yeluqi just rolled to the side, his body covered with dust and hit by gravel and sawdust. He was in a very embarrassed state. However, a few of his soldiers were unlucky and were killed directly.

With just one round of shooting, the Liao army was knocked upside down.

"The second round of shooting begins, throwing at the maximum angle."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh.

Hundreds of explosive packets flew out again, this time they flew directly over the city wall and flew into the city of Xijin Prefecture.

Some of them fell directly onto the roofs, and exploded with a sudden explosion that filled the sky with flames, like thunder from heaven and earth. The houses that were hit were directly paralyzed by the explosion.

Some fell into the city and blew up the shops.

Some fell into restaurants and brothels and exploded, blowing down the roof of the brothel and causing chaos in the brothel.

Some houses were set ablaze by explosives and burst into flames.

The explosion shocked the entire Xijin Mansion. People in the Liao Kingdom were frightened by the explosion and fled one after another. The injured even cried for their fathers and mothers.

"Third round of shooting, continue throwing."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh.

The explosive package flew into Xijin Mansion again.

With a bang, the Yamen of the left-behind mansion was blown up, and there was a chaos in the left-behind mansion. Zhao Yanshou, the left-behind man, ran out without any clothes on and shouted: "What's going on? What's going on?"

A servant reported, "Sir, Zhao Jun threw a thunderbolt and blew up our house, killing three servants."

Zhao Yanshou looked at the still burning house and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and call people to put out the fire. Put out the fire quickly."

The entire Xijin Mansion was in chaos.

Seeing the fires all over the city of Xijin, Qin Guandian nodded and said: "An ordinary residential house with two or three rounds is about the same. I'll find an important place to blow up for me."

Here, here, and here.

When everyone saw it, Qin Guan was referring to the two frontier army camps and the army granary in Xijin Mansion.

"How many more explosives are prepared?" Qin Guan asked.

"Five more rounds."

"Throw these five rounds of explosives into these places."

"Yes, Marshal."

The soldiers in charge of the trebuchets adjusted their positions and threw out the explosive packets one by one as if they were free of charge.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Immediately, there was another continuous explosion in the city of Jijin.

The combat mission was completed, Qin Guan ordered the attack to end tonight, and everyone except the defense personnel went back to sleep.

Qin Guan and others went back to sleep, but the Xijin Mansion was in chaos at the moment. The people of Liao State were panicked. Faced with such an attack, they were frightened. It would be a sleepless night.

Yeluqi just climbed up from the pile of rocks. His face was scratched by a piece of wood, and blood flowed all over his face. He was extremely embarrassed.

But now he couldn't care about this, and quickly organized his soldiers to step up defense to prevent the Zhao army from taking advantage of the chaos in Xijin Prefecture to attack the city.

But after waiting and waiting, Zhao Jun made no movement. How could he know that they had gone back to sleep.

The deputy general in charge of calculating the losses came back and reported: "Commander, we have suffered heavy losses. Our barracks were attacked by fire and thunder. More than 3,000 soldiers were killed and injured in the north and south camps, and 5,000 or 6,000 horses were lost."

"More importantly, our military granary was completely burned by the fire."
