    ?

    With the news of Pei Changqing, the soldiers dispatched by Xiao Yuanqi started to act half an hour later, that is, after the Sifang City Gate was closed.  , killing more than 1,800 people.

    Everyone, kill them all.

    Without exception.

    This killing also caused waves in the city, and the people were shocked.  However, the government issued a notice again, saying that all the people who were beheaded were those who were instigated by the Tang Dynasty, and they were all spies placed by the Tang army.

    After one order, the people will no longer discuss it.

    On the contrary, there is only righteous indignation left.

    ?One by one accused Datang, targeting Xia Guo everywhere, hoping that Xia Guo would be in trouble.  Especially now that Datang has begun to approach Rouyuan County, and the common people know the news that they are going to attack Xia State, so they hate Datang even more.  Now that they learned that the government beheaded these Tang people, the previous public outcry turned into hatred of Tang.

    And all the corpses were temporarily piled up outside the city.

    When the army led by Li Shimin drove all the way, when they arrived outside Rouyuan County, they saw corpses piled up outside the city, and smelled the bloody smell caused by the overflowing blood, Li Shimin was a little surprised.

    what happened?

    How come there are so many corpses outside the county seat of Rouyuan County all of a sudden.

    Li Shimin had a bad premonition in his heart.

    In fact, Li Shimin was able to kill the county seat of Rouyuan County easily because Xiao Yuanqi and Ma Yuan never deployed troops to resist in the east area of ??the county seat, and also ordered the people to hide, so Li Shimin's journey was smooth.

    The idea of ??Ma Yuan and Xiao Yuanqi is very simple, that is to use the city to guard.

    Block Li Shimin's army first.

    Consider the countermeasures again.

    Li Shimin never went forward in person, but after the people under his command who were in charge of bad people went forward and looked at it, the news was sent back quickly. The person in charge of the bad people said: "Your Majesty, the corpses piled up at the gate of the city should all belong to our people."  .Because some of them have already been killed.¡±

    Just at this time, Xiao Yuanqi also ordered to shout, and began to shout that the corpses piled up outside the city were all those who had been instigated by Datang.

    The news was confirmed.

    After learning about it, Li Shimin clenched his fists, with an angry expression on his face.  You know, there are quite a few people stationed in Rouyuan County, and so many people have been instigated, all forces are not weak together, there are nearly two thousand people.

    Now, they are all dead.

    Li Shimin looked up at the tower with sharp eyes. He never stepped forward and ordered: "Li Jing, arrange for the catapult to come forward and prepare to suppress the troops on the tower with gunpowder pots. Our weapons are improved catapults."  Yes. The improvement of this catapult has a long range, and it will definitely catch Du Qi's troops by surprise. The distance of a full 180 steps is enough to gain an absolute advantage."

    Li Jing made arrangements immediately.

    Row after row of catapults were all aimed at the tower.  With the catapults in place, soldiers began to charge forward at the same time, and the army charged directly.

    This is the current arrangement of Tang Jun.

    As the jingling catapult started to run, one by one clay pots had passed through the air and began to be thrown towards the city tower.

    When the clay pot fell on the tower, it exploded.

    Fortunately, the soldiers were already prepared, so when the clay pot flew towards them, they squatted down to avoid it.

    Although there are casualties, they will not be too large.

    Xiao Yuanqi personally commanded, but he was extremely calm, and there was no panic.  He calmly mobilized the mortars and arranged them on the tower, and then ordered the mortars to counterattack.

    One by one, the mortars aimed at a position one hundred and eighty steps outside the city, and quickly loaded the shells.

    Boom!  boom!  !  !

    One by one, the shells flew out of the barrel.

    The sound of the cannonball flying out was extremely shocking, and in a blink of an eye, the cannonball had already passed through the air, and then landed at the position where the catapult was.

    Boom!  !  !

    One after another, the shells fell and exploded.

    After the shells fell, all the catapults were blown up, including all the soldiers around the catapults were killed.  The round and round waves, as well as the splashing smoke and dust, showed the ferocity of this gunpowder and the power of this weapon.

    This scene shocked countless Tang soldiers even more.

    How can it be?

    How could all the catapults be destroyed in such a short period of time?blew up.

    Not a single catapult was left.

    Not a single soldier survived.

    Especially now, Li Shimin has retreated to the rear to command.  But even so, he could still clearly see the situation on the front line, so when Li Shimin saw the situation on the front line and saw so many soldiers under his command, they were all wiped out in an instant, and Li Shimin was so angry that his eyes widened.  Cracking.

    With a heart, I was excited without disappointment.

    This is scary.

    Ever since Li Shimin saw the explosion of gunpowder, he has consciously opened his eyes.  But seeing this scene now, he was frightened.

    too strong!

    This explosion is too strong!

    It makes people feel heart palpitations.

    Li Shimin took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the shock of his inner breath, then looked at Li Jing, and said, "Duke Wei, the weapons of the Xia Kingdom right now make people a little confused about how to deal with it!"

    Li Jing's heart also kept beating.  Because of the explosion on the front line, the ground trembled a little, something Li Jing had never seen before.  Li Jing was even a little parched, he said: "Your Majesty, I have lived for decades, and I have never seen such a weapon, nor have I seen such a fight."

    "On the battlefield, with such a big killer, it is enough to reverse the way of fighting on the battlefield."

    Li Jing said: "In the past, fighting on the battlefield was a contest of strategy and a confrontation in the art of war. But this is different. With such a weapon, it is enough to defeat ten times with one force, and it is enough to break the law with one force."

    Li Shimin's face turned dark.

    His eyes were serious.

    Li Shimin said: "Then in the current situation, if we want to win this battle, there may be variables. Because at the moment, it is impossible to crack the opponent's weapon. Wei Guogong, look at the soldiers who are rushing forward.  It's been bombarded."

    Li Jing also looked outside the tower.

    At this moment, outside the city tower, the area around 200 steps away from the city tower has been bombed one after another.

    Boom!  !

    Explosions, one after another.

    More and more shells exploded around, causing the army rushing forward to be killed continuously.

    There were countless casualties.

    Under such bombing, although some people approached the city, they were immediately bombed by grenades once they reached the tower. Li Shimin's soldiers were killed and injured, but they could not pose any threat to the city.

    This scene fell into Li Jing's eyes, and he frowned even more.

    The situation is very bad!

    Xia Guo's defense was too strong.

    Although the current Datang side has gunpowder that can be bombed with catapults, it is just that landmines and grenades have not been developed for the time being, because this weapon has not been developed by the Tang side for the time being.

    Li Jing looked at Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is not going to be easy."

    Li Shimin said: "Mr. Wei, this is the end of the matter, and there is no room for retreat. How long has it been since we fought against Du Qi's army in Guazhou? In a short period of time, Du Qi has become even more powerful  If it continues, I am afraid that Du Qi's strength will become stronger, and it will be more difficult for us to win. So now, we can no longer let Du Qi develop."

    Li Jing nodded.

    Changsun Wuji echoed, "Your Majesty's words are true. The stronger Du Qi is, the more we must take action to destroy Xia. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."

    Li Shimin's eyes became more determined, and he said: "No matter what, we must go all out to attack."

    "Come here, tell Ashina Teqin to come."

    Li Shimin gave an order.

    Ashina Teqin, a Turkic, is now the head of the Turkic tribe on the grassland.  Since the defeat of Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan, the power of the Turkic people on the grassland has become worse day by day, much worse than in the past.

    The strength of Ashina Teqin is only 6,000 people.

    Mainly 6,000 infantry.

    In the past, the nomads on the grassland had countless cavalry, but now, there are not many horses, and it is not easy for Ashina Teqin to gather 6,000 soldiers.

    The soldiers sent an order, not long after, Ashina Teqin had arrived in front of Li Shimin, saluted and said: "Your Majesty!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
