Finally, I decided to pull the city's artillery over and forcibly blast open the gate of the Forbidden City.

This matter is naturally still under the responsibility of Yang Hong. In order to ensure the firepower of Deshengmen, he specially transported four cannons from the east and south city gates.

At midnight, a dark cloud covered the moon and the sky became darker.

Yang Hong personally pressed the formation and prepared to bombard the imperial city gate, and then rushed in and control the prince as soon as possible.

"kill!"

A shout of killing suddenly came from the quiet night sky, and Yang Hong hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

"Sir Qibing, it seems that it is Guang'anmen, someone attacks Guang'anmen!"

Yang Hong was suddenly shocked. Unexpectedly, the other party actually thought of him and went together.

Even if he takes the imperial city tonight and the capital city, he will still die.

After thinking about it, it is more important to defend the city.

"You push the cannon over and wait for my order!"

"yes!"

A team of soldiers continued to push the cannons towards the Meridian Gate, while Yang Hong hurried to Guang'an Gate.

The lights outside the city were already brightly lit, and thousands of soldiers could be seen attacking.

"Fire the gun, fight back!"

The gunner quickly took the position, measured the distance and angle, then filled the shells and ignited them.

"boom!"

After a muffled sound, the cannon spit out a string of fierce flames, and the shells streaked across the night sky like meteors and hit the opponent's camp.

"Boom!"

The first shell exploded, and the huge shock wave overturned more than a dozen cavalrymen, and immediately caused chaos in the charge formation.

"Ding Ding Ding..."

A rapid sound of gold sound came out, and the opponent suddenly stopped charging and retreated.

"Boom!"

The second shell exploded, but no one was hit because the large army had retreated.

Yang Hong was simply angry and funny. These people were too timid. It would be over if they were shot?

In this way, things seem to be simpler than I imagined.

He reached out and stroked the cannon, with a proud look on his face, "I have one shot in my hand."

It's really fun to fight with this thing!

Since the opponent's attack was repelled, the next task was to blow open the Forbidden City.

"kill!"

However, he had just come down from the city wall and had not yet walked away, he heard the sound of killing sounds again.

Could it be that these people are back?

Yang Hong had to return to Guang'anmen Square, but he did not see a soldier.

Listen carefully, the sound seemed to come from You'anmen.

It seems that this group of people cannot conquer Guang'anmen and have changed their targets.

When Yang Hong hurried to You'anmen, the other party had already retreated completely.

He vaguely felt something was wrong and ran away as soon as he showed up. This was not for the war.

At this time, there were constant messengers reporting the news, and many city gates were attacked at the same time.

Yang Hong felt even more that things were not simple. The other party did not carry large-scale siege weapons, so why did he disperse his troops?

He vaguely had a premonition.

Perhaps the other party’s real goal is not here…

Oh no, Deshengmen!

Thinking of this, he hurriedly gathered his troops and hurried to Deshengmen.

It was midnight, and a crescent moon hangs in the sky, with stars dotted.

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to enjoy such a wonderful night view. After rushing to Deshengmen, he found that it was surprisingly quiet.

Almost all other city gates have been attacked, only here seems to have been forgotten.

"Be alert, the other party's real goal is likely to be Deshengmen."

Yang Hong's instructions were conveyed, and all the soldiers guarding the city were motivated and were waiting for the upcoming siege.

Many of them did not know that the current emperor was outside the city, and they thought it was the Tatars invasion.

It’s no wonder that as a soldier at the bottom, he wouldn’t have been exposed to much information, just obeying the command of his superior.

While waiting, some people looked at the sky bored, and many stars flashed and erratic.

For some reason, these stars seem to be different from what you see in daily life.

"Hey, look at those stars."

"What's wrong?"

"It seems to be moving, isn't I dazzled?"

"You can't tell me, I'm moving as well."

"This thing won't fall, right?"

Whoosh!

While the two were talking, a star really fell down.

Although the stars are dim, it is still very obvious to draw a line in the dark night sky.

"It really fell..."

Boom!

The two were surprised why the stars fell down, and the stars had exploded in front of their eyes.

Within twenty steps around, iron nails and gravel flew around, and I don’t know how many people fell to the ground.

Boom!

Boom!

One after another, the stars began to fall and then exploded, like large firecrackers.

Or, these are firecrackers.

Mei Chunfei was in the air, picked up the bamboo bomb and ignited the lead, and threw it down.

This thing is filled with black gunpowder and gravel iron nails in the bamboo tube as thick as an arm, and sealed with coal. It is simple to make and low-cost. The impact of the explosion is very limited. However, the lethality of gravel and iron nails in the crowd is very considerable.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the city wall. I don’t know who exploded the warehouse where the shells were stored.

Five hundred bamboo bombs, five per person, were quickly lost.

Mei Chun observed the air meter, adjusted the flame and angle of the oil lamp, and slowly fell down.

When they approached the city wall, they found that there was already a sea of ​​fire. More than half of the defenders were killed or injured, and they cried and called for their parents.

"rush!"

"kill!"

The Sanqian Battalion received a signal and attacked the city gate with all its might.

Zhu Qizhen stayed behind the team and closely observed the battle situation.

The mission of the Academy of Sciences has been completed, and the next step is to hand it over to San Thousand Battalions...

Wait a moment!

Suddenly, he found that something was wrong.

According to the original plan, these Kongming lanterns will fly back after they have lost the bomb.

But for some reason, all the lights flew towards the city.

Is it a matter of wind direction?

It shouldn't be. The Academy of Sciences is already very skilled in controlling Kongming lanterns. How could he make such a big mistake?

Suddenly, he was shocked!

Belin must have planned it long ago, and after throwing the bomb, he went to open the city gate!
Chapter completed!
