Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Murong Yanda looked at the dark crowd of Liangshan soldiers below the city, and his legs couldn't help but tremble.

    "Had I known this, I shouldn't have let Ji Anbang attack the camp last night. Otherwise, with him guarding the city at this time, I wouldn't have had to risk going to the city myself.  Once a war breaks out, the city will be rained with arrows. If he is not careful, he may lose his life on the city.  However, he was afraid that the soldiers guarding the city would lose the city if they responded passively, so he could only guard the city in person to supervise them.

    When Murong Yanda was staring nervously at the Liangshan military formation, he saw Liangshan suddenly pushing out a trench bridge and several trench-filling trucks, and then the five Liangshan leaders in front of the formation also came on horseback.

    Murong Yanda was a little strange about Liangshan's arrangement. There was no doubt that the trench bridge was intended to be built on the moat, but if you wanted to attack the city, you should use a car to break open the city gate, and the trench-filling truck could only be used to  Fill in the moat.

    Although Murong Yanda was puzzled, he did not dare to let the Liangshan soldiers come over easily and ordered the archers to prepare.

    Chao Yong, Hua Rong, Shi Wengong, Xuan Zan and Sun Li stopped their horses when they reached the range of the archers.

    Chao Yong saw that Murong Yanda actually dared to stand at the top of the city wearing an official robe. He couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. He opened his bow and shot at Murong Yanda at the full moon.

    When Murong Yanda saw Chao Yong firing his bow, he felt something was wrong. He saw a black spot in his sight gradually getting bigger and he hurriedly shrank behind the battlements in fear.

    "ah"

    The man standing behind Murong Yanda saw the magistrate suddenly shrinking down. Just when he realized something was wrong, he saw a sharp arrow coming. He had no time to react and was shot in the chest.

    The man was pierced by an iron arrow, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared in his chest. His body was carried by the powerful arrow and flew several feet into the air before falling to the ground.

    Murong Yanda looked at the gentleman behind him who was taking in more air than coming out. He was also trembling with fear. He didn't dare to stand up anymore and shouted: "Fire the arrow, fire the arrow."

    The archers on the city did not dare to neglect after seeing the magistrate's order. They quickly opened their bows and shot down the city.

    Murong Yanda cautiously poked his head out from behind the battlements and saw that all the arrows shot from the city fell in front of Chao Yong and the other five people, only stirring up a cloud of dust, while the five people all stretched their bows towards the city.  When he was shot, he quickly shrank his head and hid behind the battlements.

    As soon as Murong Yanda turned his head, he felt a strong wind next to him that made his face hurt, and an iron arrow whizzed past.

    The four archers nearby were not as lucky as Murong Yanda. After shooting the arrow, it was too late to hide and they screamed and fell to the city.

    When Murong Yanda saw this, he quickly shouted: "Use the divine arm crossbow, use the divine arm crossbow."

    Seeing that they could only passively take the beating, the archers guarding the city were so frightened that they crouched down.

    Only ten divine arm archers stood up, aimed at five people, and prepared to shoot five people.

    But everyone was hiding behind the battlements, and only ten people stood up. They immediately attracted the attention of Chao Yong and the five others. Before they could release their arrows, they were all shot down by five arrows.

    ¡°You idiot, idiot, spread out, spread out.¡±

    Murong Yanda scolded, and ten archers picked up the divine arm crossbows and dispersed to the top of the city. This time, the archers did not dare to aim carefully. They stood up and shot at Chao Yong and the other five.

    Chao Yong looked at the archers who suddenly appeared on the city wall, and suddenly remembered the game of later generations. The Overlord moved quickly in his hand, fired three arrows in a row, and shot down the three archers.

    However, this time the archers appeared irregularly, but the five of them failed to shoot down the ten archers. Two sharp arrows shot at Chao Yong and Sun Li like lightning.

    Chao Yong saw that the two arrows were coming very fast and said hurriedly: "It's a divine arm crossbow, be careful."

    Chao Yong picked up the eight-edged purple gold hammer hanging on the horse and knocked the incoming arrow under the horse with one hammer.

    Next to him, Sun Li also picked up a steel whip and knocked down the arrows aimed at him.

    After several rounds of shooting, dozens of archers on the city had been killed or injured, but none of Chao Yong's five men was injured. The archers were avoiding the ten divine arm crossbows at this time, fearing that they would be hit.  Use the divine arm crossbow.

    Murong Yanda took a sneak peek and saw that the trench bridge under the city had been pushed to the moat, lying across the river, and several trench-filling trucks were pushing it straight to the city gate. He couldn't help but be startled.

    There are protective panels on the front, back, left and right of the trench-filling truck. The person pushing the truck is hiding inside, but the archer cannot shoot.

    When Murong Yanda was confused, several trench-filling carts were pushed under the city gate. Several people pushing carts got out and ran back.

    Several people pushing carts ran out more than ten feet and then fell to the ground.

    Murong Yanda couldn't think of a reason for this. Just when he was about to order the soldiers at the top of the city to break the trench bridge with stones, he felt a sudden shock under his feet, and his whole body was thrown up in the air. Only then did Murong Yanda listen.  There was a loud noise, and the tower on the city gate collapsed.

    ¡°Then Murong Yanda felt severe pain all over his body and lost his intuition.

    Chao Yong and others have alsoHe turned his horse to run back, but the sound of hundreds of kilograms of black powder exploding still frightened the horse beneath him.

    Chao Yong clamped the horse tightly and pulled the horse's reins. It took a while before the horse stopped restlessly.

    Hundreds of kilograms of black powder were blasted, and the city gate was blown to an unknown location. Even some of the city walls to the left and right of the city gate collapsed, revealing a gap several feet wide.

    Although everyone in Liangshan already knew the power of black powder, they were still stunned when they saw the city gate collapse.

    "Kill."

    Chao Yong had seen too many explosive movies in later generations, so he was not shocked at all. He reined in his horse and was the first to charge into the city.

    "Kill"

    "Kill"

    "Kill"

    The soldiers behind reacted and rushed towards the gap at the city gate with shouts.

    ? Almost all the officers and soldiers on the top of the city suffered severe pain in their ears from the loud noise in front of them, and many people were injured by flying stones. There were screams everywhere on the top of the city.

    Chao Yong¡¯s horse was so fast that he arrived at the moat in just a dozen breaths, only to see that the moat bridge had also been smashed into two sections by falling boulders.  A huge boulder fell under the broken trench bridge, supporting half of the trench bridge across the river.

    But the remaining half of the bridge was still more than ten feet away from the city gate. Seeing that the army was already swarming, Chao Yong knew that there could be no delay.  The horse ran up the trench bridge. When he reached the bridge, he suddenly lifted the reins of the horse, and the horse crossed to the other side.

    "rise"

    Chao Yong jumped off his horse, grabbed a collapsed boulder nearly ten feet in size with both hands, walked to the moat, and threw it in.

    "Plop"

    The boulder fell into the water and got stuck between the river bank and the boulder under the trench bridge. Chao Yong saw that there was only a two or three-foot wide gap between the boulder on the river and the trench bridge, so he got on his horse and rushed towards the city.  go.

    Liangshan soldiers and horses continued to pour into Qingzhou City through this road. The soldiers on the city had already lost their fighting spirit. When they saw the Liangshan brigade soldiers and horses entering the city, they surrendered one after another.

    Although the other city gates were not attacked by force, they were intercepted by soldiers and horses. In this battle, Qingzhou did not escape even a single soldier.

    After capturing Qingzhou City, Chao Gai divided his troops to attack the counties under Qingzhou's jurisdiction, and at the same time made preparations for proclaiming himself king on January 1st and announcing to the world.  (To be continued.
