boom!A loud thunderous sound teared through the tranquility of Jinyang City in the morning, and several sparrows flew into the distance in panic.
On a sunny day, the rising sun had just risen, and it was as red as blood in the east.
The soldiers of the Northern Han army on the city wall heard the thunderous sound for some reason, and they all looked around.
Behind the first earthen wall and fence, more than 500 steps away from the city, a smoke of gunpowder rose.
That's not thunder, it's a cannon!After many days of preparation for the fortifications in the siege, the sound of cannons finally rang out impatiently.
This loud noise not only disturbed the deadlock between the sparrows and the confrontation, but also disturbed all parties... the Great Zhou, Northern Han, Northern Prefecture of Liao, and even the Southern Prefecture of Liao in Youzhou.
Guo Shao has received various signs of making a detailed report, and even Youzhou has the possibility of mobilizing troops to save Jinyang.
The Jinyang Battle, which is involved in all parties, kicked off at this moment!
Guo Shao sat on the horse by pressing his sword and looked up in the voice.
The initial velocity of the stone bomb fired by the cannon was indeed not very fast. You could see the round stone throwing objects in the air with the naked eye. After a while, it fell to the ground. A bang sound from afar and hit the soil outside the city.
Then it calmed down, leaving only the noise of people around.
The generals and officials said nothing, squinted their eyes and looked at the place where the smoke was rising in the east. Guo Shao also looked at it and waited patiently.
A general on the cannon formation looked at him and shouted: Take one inch higher!
A loaded thick and short mortar cannon next to it was immediately dug out of the sacks by the soldiers, and then a sandbag was stuffed into the gun ear. A young man quickly took the rope ruler and measured it, saying: OK.
Several soldiers then held sandbags and stuffed the cannon barrels. The thick iron cannon seemed to be buried in the sand, to fix the direction.
Soon, there was another loud bang, and a large amount of gunpowder exploded, and the muzzle seemed to be spitting fire, and white smoke suddenly rose!
The huge sound of cannons seemed to echo outside the city wall. As soon as the sound of cannons passed, I heard a cough cough.
Guo Shao raised his head, looked at the rolling stone bullet, and silently said: Come on!middle!
Under everyone's gaze, the stone bullet flew towards the city about five hundred steps away with everyone's expectations. In a short while, it suddenly fell onto the city wall.
The 100-pound stone bullet hit the target!
With a bang, the earth and stones were vaguely splashing on the wall and dust flew around, and it looked like it was exploded.
Because the stone bullet is very heavy and powerful, it at least smashes the floor tiles on the city wall and makes it into a pit.
Seeing this situation, the soldiers cheered.
Not long after, artillery deployed in front of them rang out one after another, and for a moment, lightning and thunder were heard in the camp outside the city.All the hundreds of cannons fired in a short time, with a very loud noise and the earth was trembling!
Moreover, Guo Shao deployed more than 100 cannons on the Jinyang siege camp, and the military weapon supervisors built more than 300 same dragon roar cannons, all of which were transported to the Jinyang front line!
Because this kind of cannon is useful for siege.
Heavy stone bullets attacked the city wall in front of them, and the earth and stones on the top of the city flew together, and the bricks and sorrow on the wall fell down. The battle formation soon became a mess, and fire was flashing everywhere.
Guo Shao watched the spectacular scene for a while, but had not adapted to such a huge sound. Even though he was far away from the cannon array, his ears were buzzing and buzzing.
A large number of artillery bombardment, but the results of the stone bombs were still uneven.
The specifications of the Dragon Owl cannon, the weighing of gunpowder, and the far and near angle of the gun barrel are all uniform, but errors are still difficult to avoid; the casting artillery and measurement methods are still relatively rough and difficult to achieve accuracy.
However, the knowledge and technology adopted is already far ahead in this era... How many years will the laws of parabola and ballistics be discovered.But for Guo Shao, these are just junior high school physics knowledge.
At this time, more than 300 artillery outside the fortifications that lasted more than ten miles long were roaring one after another, and the battle formation became more and more lively.
There were many volleys of doors, like sound waves lifting the Jinyang city wall. Listening to the sound formation, Jinyang seemed to collapse if it wouldn't last long... But the actual effect was still a big difference!
The average thickness of the city wall in Jinyang is ten steps (more than ten meters), and this kind of black gunpowder cannon cannot be overturned, but it is only a matter of time before it causes serious damage to its walls, such as bricks and women's walls on the walls.
Another great function is that there are a large number of defenders on the city walls, and artillery can also cause damage; and consume their morale and fighting spirit.
So on the first day of siege, the Zhou army did not dispatch one soldiers to attack the city, and continued to bombard the city, consuming a large amount of gunpowder and stone bombs.It doesn't stop until evening.
However, the Zhou army was not afraid of consumption. All the Northern Han army cities in the southern region were pinned by the Zhou army. Military resources were continuously transported from the Fen River and Qinlu Post Roads, and the resources of the whole country were taking on this war!
The first row of the whistling cannons was five hundred steps away from the city wall; the heavy weapons of the Northern Han army were nothing more than catapults and crossbows, and these weapons were only two or three hundred steps away, so they could not reach the Zhou army unless they rushed out of the city.
The Northern Han Army was beaten for a whole day without returning a single hand.
...The sun sets, and the noise and bustle that roars all day gradually become quiet.The smoke filled the sky, and the choking smell of gunpowder never dissipated for a long time, and the city gradually lit up and down.
The faces of several generals were smoked black and dirty. They put their weapons outside the tent first and walked into the tent of the Central Army.
It was very lively inside. Although I had been tired all day, because there were no casualties, the power of the cannons made them very excited (much stronger than the catapult cart), and they were talking in the tent.
After a while, Guo Shao also walked in and sat down in the upper seat.Everyone immediately calmed down and saluted with fists.
You guys are exempted from the gift and sit down at will.Guo Shao said kindly.
Everyone bowed together: Thank you for your kindness.
The generals sat down from left and right as they said. General Gao Yanqiu said: I look at it. The dragon roar cannon is much more powerful than the stone casting car, but it is just a cannon and cannot capture the city.I think that in order to capture Xia Jinyang as soon as possible, I have to attack the city.
When someone made a comment, Guo Shao turned to look at him and listened carefully, but nodded with encouragement and appreciation, and did not speak easily.
When he was a military general, he encouraged the generals to express their opinions and then make a judgment on his own.Sure enough, Liu Renzhan also spoke: Can we use gunpowder to explode Jinyang City?
Guo Shao responded: You can try it, but the attack of the hole is time-consuming. It will take nearly a month to successfully dig tunnels and bury gunpowder... I think it may not be as easy as before with gunpowder this time.Zhao Kuangyin knew the specific tactics of gunpowder bombing the city, and he would advise the Northern Han master to be prepared for this; once the other party was prepared, the chance would be greater than before.Furthermore, Jinyang is rich and I don’t know how effective it is.
After he said that, he was also speculating on the effect, if he really successfully collapsed the city wall again.
The gap is very small. Because the city wall is high and thick, a large amount of earth and rock may accumulate in the gap affect the attack speed... At this time, if the defenders are prepared, deploy troops in the small gap and repair fortifications to defend, the contact surface is too small, it is very likely to become a waste of delay tactic.
At this time, Wang Pu said: When the Liao army reinforcements arrive, if Li Chuyun can stop the Liao army, Jinyang will be an isolated city.There is no reason for a lonely city to be lost, it is just the length of time.
Guo Shao agreed and said: The king's envoy made sense. In the end, he would have to continuously consume the power of the defenders and eliminate their hopes... He would block the reinforcements of the Liao Kingdom in advance, so that the rulers and ministers of the Northern Han Kingdom felt hopeless in resistance, and only then would he have a chance to capture Jinyang.
Everyone discussed it and talked about a lot of ways, as well as the method to flood Jinyang City.
However, these are all replays of old tunes. Some people have long said that they have to wait until the summer season of rising water, and the purpose is to eliminate the patience of the defenders.
At this moment, the soldiers came in with supper.A group of warriors immediately turned their attention to the food, and it seemed that everyone was hungry all day long.
There is not much difference between the generals and soldiers in the army. Even Guo Shao, as the emperor, ate the same food, and the generals were embarrassed to have a small meal alone... If they really wanted to do it, those generals were not thousands of subordinates, and it would be easy to get some big fish and meat.
What we eat now is wheat cakes, which are filled with baskets and filled with fullness; the other is soup made with salt from marinated meat, vegetable leaves and leaves, which are filled with wooden barrels.
Everyone didn't care. Anyway, they were used to eating, so they asked their followers to take their own big iron cups, use the iron cups to make soup, and then divide them into wheat cakes.
On a sunny day, the rising sun had just risen, and it was as red as blood in the east.
The soldiers of the Northern Han army on the city wall heard the thunderous sound for some reason, and they all looked around.
Behind the first earthen wall and fence, more than 500 steps away from the city, a smoke of gunpowder rose.
