At the foothills where the soldiers attacked, the wooden fence turned into a pile of debris and rotten wood in an instant, burning under the high temperature generated by the explosion. The breastworks used to block the artillery fire were much weaker than the city walls. As long as they were hit by heavy artillery,

, it will fall down several feet.

The most pitiful ones were the Jin Army soldiers who were guarding behind the trenches. They fled in all directions under the artillery fire. Some people jumped into the trenches to take shelter and ended up being buried alive in them; cats behind the breastworks could be accidentally collapsed by the wall.

smashed to death; and the explosive shells fired by the mortar are even more terrifying. After the explosion, there is often only a huge

No one could survive the pit, the mutilated corpses around it, and the howling wounded. But the city gate had been sealed. It was impossible to return to the city. They stayed here just waiting to die. The survivors poured into the sheep under the city.

In just one hour, under the bombardment of artillery fire, the outer fortifications and enemy defenders under Jinzhou City were swept away. However, the Jin Army was not able to fire an arrow or launch a counterattack from beginning to end. Thousands of people became the first in Jinzhou City.

To criticize the martyrs, the Jin army at the top of the city once wanted to profit from

Trebuchets were used to suppress the Song Army's artillery, but as soon as they took the risk of firing a stone bomb, they were discovered by artillery observers and immediately reported it to the command post. Before the enemy could fire a second stone bomb, several shells exploded next to them. The result was

The cannons were destroyed and people were killed, so the Jin army did not dare to move again.

After destroying the enemy's outer defense line, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 5th Artillery Brigade transferred their artillery fire towards the enemy's city wall, while the 4th and 5th Battalions' mortars raised their muzzles and ejected explosive shells into the city, killing and injuring the enemy troops in the city.

The range of the small artillery equipped had reached its limit. In order to increase the lethality, they began to move their positions forward, while the officers and soldiers of the baggage brigade stepped forward to clear the passage, transport siege equipment, and prepare to build pontoon bridges.

Conquering the fortified city was the specialty of Qiao Shijun, commander of the 5th Artillery Brigade. He used his experience in shelling the castle during the Persian expedition to concentrate the front-loading artillery.

Fired solid bullets to bombard the roots of the city wall. Under the impact of the projectiles weighing thirty kilograms, the bricks outside the city wall fell like raindrops, and the rammed earth layer that could not be penetrated by knives and arrows was dug out.

Then it only takes a few explosive bombs to hit the bullet hole. Under the shock of the explosion and the gravity of the city wall itself, the city wall that has lost its foundation will collapse along with the surrounding walls, forming a slow slope. The rest is

It's simple. As long as you keep firing with solid bullets, the wall will fall to the inside of the city wall, forming a gap. And the fallen wall will become a road leading into the city.

With a loud bang, the west city wall of Jinzhou finally failed to hold up under the continuous bombardment of heavy artillery. After shaking for a few times, it suddenly fell, forming a gap more than ten feet wide. Several artillerymen who had moved their positions
