    "Boom -" The thunder cannon blasted into the city again, and many houses were blown directly into the sky.  Most of the houses in ancient times were made of wood, and cement houses are not yet popular.  Although Jingwen invented cement, cement is now used to pave roads and cannot be used to build houses.  Therefore, wooden houses were the mainstream building materials even in the Tang Dynasty, not to mention Goguryeo.  The wooden houses are very weak and can be easily blown to pieces. Now all the bombed houses have been overturned.  "This time" Suddenly there was smoke in the city, and then the city of Pyongyang in Goguryeo suddenly started to catch fire.  Because wooden houses are made of wood, wood is a combustible material.  As for the thunder cannons just now, they are explosives, although explosives generally do not cause combustion.  However, there were still many combustible things in the wooden house, and washing things ignited the damaged building materials, and then the building materials burned one after another.  After that, the flames became smaller and larger, and finally began to spread gradually.  "Put out the fire! Put out the fire! Put out the fire quickly!" "Put out the fire quickly, don't let them spread!" "Put out the fire, the whole city will be burning by then!" The people of Goguryeo began to try to rescue and extinguish the fire, but this was already  People outside the city heard it.  "What are they talking about?" Jing Wen asked.  "They are shouting to put out the fire!" said a staff officer who knew the Goguryeo language.  Jing Wen immediately shouted: "God help me, keep fighting, don't be polite. Burn them as hard as possible, don't be polite. Now, take advantage of his illness to kill him. We not only have to set off cannons to interfere with their efforts to put out the fire, but also  They were exhausted. As the fire got bigger and bigger, they were forced to surrender! " "Boom, boom, boom" The cannons were fired into Pyongyang City again, and they exploded again.  This explosion not only killed many Goguryeo people who wanted to put out the fire, but also caused a new burning point.  This caused the fire that the Goguryeo people had just put out to burn again.  "Master Yang, our enemy's cannons are too powerful and we can't put out the fire!" "Yeon Gaesoo-moon, hurry up and put out the fire! If it continues to burn like this, then we may destroy the entire city of Pyongyang!"  Yuengai Suwen and Yang Wanchun, who were in charge of the city defense work, both looked helpless. Tang Jun was setting fires while preventing them from putting out the fires.  Everyone is like this too, what can you do?  If you want to put out a fire, people will deliberately fire cannons to stop it. Not only will this not effectively put out the fire.  Instead, the fever got bigger and bigger, and finally it was beyond control.  "Yang Wanchun, shall we break out?" a Goguryeo general asked.  "You want to break out, then give it a try!" Yang Wanchun said angrily.  Soon, a team of hundreds of people wanted to open the city gate and break out, and many people followed behind.  But when they just opened the city gate, they were immediately bombarded by the general's artillery.  "Bang bang bang bang" Shotguns were fired one after another, and the city gate was no longer covered.  Those who crowded at the city gate were also killed by shotgun blasts, and the roads were also blocked by these shotgun blasts.  Yang Wanchun in the distance watched this scene.  A sneer appeared on his mouth.  He had long known that Tang Jun would not let them break out so easily.  So if you run to break out at this time, you are courting death.  If it was really that easy to break through, Yang Wanchun would have broken through long ago.  It was precisely because he had interacted with Jing Wenda several times.  He had long known how powerful the Tang army was, so there was no way he could even think about breaking through.  And Yeon Gaesumun did not choose to break out, because he knew that the Tang army could completely block the city gate.  "Brother Yang, we're all at this point. It's better not to argue for now. What do the Tang army want to do? Don't they have a kind of cannonball that can break the city gate at once? Why don't they use it to break the city gate, but use these cannonballs to slowly break down the city gate?  "What about bombarding us?" Yuengai Suwen asked.  Yeon Gaesumun refers to the kind of solid iron bullet.  The kind that can break down city gates.  And if the Tang army directly broke through the city gate and rushed in through the city gate, they could send a large number of troops to attack at once.  However, Datang has not actively used it yet, and only uses shotguns to fire it.  This kind of shotgun is not very powerful and cannot break the city gate. So what is the purpose of the Tang army?  "Their intention is very simple, that is, they want to trap us in the city so that we can't bear it and finally surrender. Look at the current fires. They also deliberately let our city catch fire so that we will be burned.  It will turn into a scorched earth. We will definitely surrender by then, so they are not in a hurry. You see, they have also blocked our way to break out, and we will only be trapped in it, or we will take the initiative.  Surrender, then we have no other way to go," Yang Wanchun said.  "What a ruthless method!"This one is going to drive us to death!  Why did we encounter Tang Jun, and the methods we used in the past no longer work?  "Yuan Gaesu Wen also complained. "Yuan Gaesu Wen is extremely aggrieved. If the Tang army still fights like the Sui Dynasty army in the past, then they can defend easily. But now the Tang army actually doesn't play with them like they did in the past.  Instead, all kinds of new weapons and tactics are emerging one after another, making all their methods useless. Their methods are all used to defend cold weapon troops, but now people are playing with hot weapons, which is tragic.  All their methods are of no use under the attack of hot weapons. The city wall cannot withstand the enemy's artillery bombardment, and they will not fight you fairly, just on the city wall.  Attacking them from the outside is just to pile them up with money. Originally, the two poor brothers Yeon Gae Suwen and Yang Wanchun wanted to show off their talents to gain political capital for themselves, but now they are not playing a role with you at all.  If they don't play with you directly, what can you do? All their methods are useless. They just use their strong strength to slowly push you down. This method of fighting is too shameless, and any strategy is useless, anyway.  Use your strength to crush you to death. This makes them feel that their tactics are useless. Under the attack of their absolute strength, and Jing Wen doesn't know how to use artillery to crush them to death, they can't catch the loophole at all.  The one who dug the tunnel was also plotted in reverse. All their strategies were ineffective and were "digested" by various staff members. Therefore, Yuan Gaisuwen and Yang Wanchun were also sighing here.  , there is no way (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
