After killing Hou Gengnian, Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.

From the beginning, he had no intention of staying to wait for the New Year.

Now, don't worry about his back prick.

As for Dou Jianming, he was recruited by Hou Gengnian, and he had never trusted him at all.

He was deeply trusted by Li Xin at the beginning, but did he mean to betray him?

Including Gongsun Chong, he grew up with Li Xin since childhood, and that kind of relationship is far from comparable to that of him.

However, he installed an undercover agent next to Dou Jianming.

I'm very clear about what's happening there.

"Listen to my orders, the army advances at full speed!"

......

On the other hand, Cui Bolin led an army of tens of thousands to the north and fought with the army led by Yuchi Xinxiong in Yuzhou.

Yuzhou is just one word, "ping", so here is the world of cavalry.

Yuchi Xinxiong was looking for a fight all the way on Henan Road, and his bones were almost rusted.

When he learned that Cui Bolin had captured Ruyang, he was so excited that he hurried over!

"Cui Bolin, you, a dog thief who forgot your ancestors, betrays the court and will not die well. Why don't you open the city gate quickly and kneel on the side of the road to greet you, Grandpa Yuchi."

Yuchi Xinxiong was a big voice and held the loudspeaker in his hand, "Maybe your grandfather Yuchi is happy and can save you a life.

If you don’t know how to be polite, today, your Grandpa Yuchi will smash you!"

Inside Ruyang City.

Cui Bolin was furious, but there was no way. Yuchi Xinxiong led thousands of cavalry, and with his strength, he was no match for Yuchi Xinxiong at all.

Although this guy Ma Zhan was almost there, he was also a great general who was worthy of Daqian.

"Grandmaster, what should I do? They just came and shouted and cursed outside the city!"

"Can you curse two pieces of meat lose?"

Cui Bolin was on fire, "This is forcing us to go out. If he wants to scold, let him scold him. See how long he can scold him!"

His main task was to hold back Yuchi Xinxiong's army and buy time for Li Yue.

Pei Weiyuan has now reached Xuzhou. He just waited for the two armies to join and could definitely wipe out Yuchi Xinxiong here.

The Jingzhou Army was so depressed that they had more than 30,000 people, afraid that they would be thousands of people.

Yuchi Xinxiong was also tired of scolding, "Sunzi, don't come out, right? OK, I thought it would be enough to just huddle in Ruyang City?"

The Thunder Army stepped forward and banged me hard, and blasted the turtle shell open!"

Yuchi Xinxiong knew the situation of the battle and the latest information would be sent to him every day for his reference.

After capturing Ruyang, he still had to kill Pei Weiyuan.

The mountain cannon is not as big as the thunder cannon, but it uses yellow gunpowder.

It is several times more powerful than the first generation of Thunder Cannons.

Moreover, over the past two years, the smelting technology has also been qualitatively improved, and it can be carried by a single soldier, but three people are required to operate it.

Nearly two hundred mountain cannons lined up in a row.

"Report to the general, the Thunder Army has been arranged in place!" The Thunder Army Captain stepped forward and said.

Yuchi Xinxiong was also amazed. When the National Dynasty was in the military parade and training, he had seen the training of the Thunder Army, and the training methods were completely different.

Not only that, their combat methods are different from other troops.

"It's time to fire!"

Yuchi Xinxiong said.

"yes!"

The captain took out the flag and held a loud trumpet in his hand, "Fire the cannon!"

boom!

More than a hundred mountain cannons bombed the shells out.

In an instant, there was a light of fire on the city wall.

The loud noise echoing between heaven and earth is like thunder.

The city walls trembled, and the people who were bombed by shells did not even have a chance to struggle. They were directly blown up by the shells to form a firepower net, killing indiscriminately.

The shrapnel easily penetrated their armor.

The shock waves generated by the explosion hurt their hearts.

Maybe they were lucky and were not injured, but in just two days they would vomit blood.

Then he died without treatment.

Some shells fell into the city wall, and the rebels cried and shouted to their parents under the city wall.

Cui Bolin's scalp was numb, "Hurry, push it up!"

"Grandmaster, if you can't go up, you will die if you go up!"

A child of the Cui family cried and said, "The shells have all been shot into the city. I don't know how many people were killed. What should I do if the Grand Governor?"

"Hold on!"

Cui Bolin took a deep breath, "Pile all the stones and sandbags at the city gate for me. They will definitely blow up the city gate and drag them to death!"

"Yes, the Grand Governor!"

The Ruyang city wall is about four zhang high and about two zhang deep, which is a real high city.

Although the bombardment was powerful, he didn't believe it could knock down the city wall.

While they bombarded, it was impossible for them to send people to attack the city.

The shells don't have eyes.

If they want to attack the city, they will inevitably stop the shelling, and then they will go to the city wall again.

The food is enough for them to last for half a month.

At that time, Pei Weiyuan's army came.

Under double attacks, Yuchi Xinxiong will definitely be killed.

Thinking of this, Cui Bolin also became confident and hurriedly ordered them to use things to block the city gate.

But he didn't dare to fight too close, for fear that stray bullets would come over and hurt him.

Outside the city, after three rounds of bombing, the Thunder Army Captain said: "General, the artillery bombardment has been completed!"

"Hurry up, go and bomb the city gate!" Yuchi Xinxiong ordered.

Then someone brought explosives to the city gate.

boom!

With a loud bang, a hole broke out in the city gate, but there were stones and sandbags inside.

"Report, General, the rebels have blocked the city gate with stones, sandbags, rolling wood, etc., and they can't be blown up!" The blaster hurried back to report.

Yuchi Xinxiong frowned deeply. He knew very well that if the city gate was blocked, there would be no second way except climbing up.

And they only have cavalry and no equipment to attack cities.

Once you attack the city, you will be dragged to death.

It is normal for the other party to rely on the high walls of Ruyang and drag him to ten days and half a month.

He took out the Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mile Mi

At this time, new soldiers had already been on the wall on the city wall.

Although shells and explosives are good, it is difficult to further advance the battle if there is no assistance from multiple arms.

How to do it?

Yuchi Xinxiong looked at the bumpy city wall and gritted his teeth, "Since the city gate cannot be blown up, then blow up the city wall. The engineers go dig the pit and blow down the city wall for me.

The Thunder Army continued to shoot two volleys!"

"Yes, General!"

With the Thunder Army and explosives, if he is still dragged down, he will be stupid!

The second round of artillery began, but this time only half of the mountain cannons were bombarding.

The shells are very expensive, so you need to save a little bit.

The first round of gunfire has scared them silly, and the second round is mainly auxiliary.

The engineers and blasters rushed over again.

Waving the new engineer shovel, a hole was dug out in the blink of an eye.

However, the Ruyang city wall is buried more than two meters in the soil, and it cannot be destroyed by blowing it up randomly.

They first exploded at a fixed point, exploded a small hole, and then exploded the small hole into a large hole bit by bit.

Seeing that it was almost done, he took out a real killing weapon, fifteen kilograms of explosives, and stuffed them into the hole.

After igniting the lead, the blaster crawled out of the pit and shouted, "Run quickly!"
Chapter completed!
