October 19th, Liaodong City.

Once the Shenwei Army's artillery battalion had deployed, the dark muzzles of their cannons were aimed at the north and east gates of Liaodong City.

In the morning, Wei Jun also directly issued the bombing order.

"Whether there are dates or not, let's give them a good whack!"

Wei Jun chuckled and said, "Old Zhang, you should get ready on your end too!"

"General Wei, rest assured!"

Zhang Cheng patted his chest and said, "This time, we will definitely not let the enemy in Liaodong down!"

After Wei Jun gave the order, the Shenwei Army artillery battalion officially opened fire.

A dozen or so cannons outside the north gate roared in unison.

One after another, cannonballs flew toward the north gate of Liaodong City with a piercing whistle.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Instantly, a massive cannonball struck the north gate of the city.

Solid cannonballs smashed huge cracks into the city gates, while explosive cannonballs exploded the moment they hit them.

Wood chips flew everywhere, and the city gate was broken.

After just one salvo of artillery fire, the entire north gate of Liaodong City collapsed with a deafening roar, revealing the massive opening in the gate.

"this……"

The artillery company commander was stunned.

He never expected that the city gate of Liaodong City would be so vulnerable; it was blown open with just one round of cannon fire.

How can this continue?

"Company commander, what do we do now?"

A marksman approached the company commander and asked, "Are we still fighting? Where are we going to fire?"

"Let's blow up the city gate tower first!"

The artillery company commander sighed helplessly and said, "Report this to the battalion commander and the commander-in-chief immediately!"

When Wei Jun learned of this news, he was clearly stunned.

Originally, they only intended to launch a feigned attack on Liaodong City, and did not intend to capture it.

Now look what's happened, the north gate of the city has been blasted open.

"Damn! This is way too fragile!"

Wei Jun was both amused and exasperated, unsure of what to do next.

"Never mind."

Wei Jun hesitated for a moment, then said, "At the north gate, we'll bomb the gate tower first and damage the city wall."

Awaiting orders!

"Commander,"

One of the staff officers next to him said, "How about we transfer some artillery from the north gate to the west and south gates?"

Since our plan is a feint attack to besiege the city and catch the reinforcements, let's destroy all four gates of Liaodong City!

This caused complete panic among the city's garrison.

The King of Liao panicked and will definitely issue an emergency order to recall the troops stationed in the surrounding cities!

This can also produce remarkable results!

"Alright!"

Wei Jun nodded and said, "Tell the brothers of the Third Battalion to protect the artillery battalion."

If things go wrong, retreat immediately, without hesitation!

"yes!"

The staff officer nodded quickly.

Liaodong City did not expect that the Divine Might Army would abandon the surrounding cities and rush straight to Liaodong City.

Therefore, even when the Shenwei Army appeared in the Fushun Pass area, Liaodong City only strengthened the defenses of the city walls and did not block the city gates.

Under a barrage of artillery fire, the wooden city gates at the north and east gates were also damaged and collapsed.

The massive city gate allowed a clear view of the panicked garrison inside the city.

Liaodong City, Liao King's Palace.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

An official rushed into the Liao Prince's residence, knelt before Prince Li Tong, and said, "Your Highness, something terrible has happened!"

"Both the North Gate and the East Gate have been breached..."

"What?"

Upon hearing this news, the young Prince Li Tong of Liao became somewhat flustered.

If the city gates have been breached, then Liaodong City is in imminent danger.

What should we do?

"Your Highness, don't panic!"

Seemingly noticing Li Tong's flustered expression, Song Ming said, "Your Highness, we still have more than 20,000 troops stationed in Liaodong City."

Moreover, we also have thunderclaps.

Even if the city gates are breached, so what?

With such a small city gate, how many of Prince Xin's troops could possibly break through at once?

We can stop them from the city walls!

Besides, we can now mobilize the city's garrison to move bricks and stones to block the breach in the city gate!

Moreover, there are tens of thousands of troops stationed in various cities in Liaodong…

"Yes, yes, yes!"

King Li Tong of Liao nodded repeatedly and said, "What Mr. Song said is very true!"

There are still many troops stationed in the surrounding cities. Immediately issue my order to summon the troops stationed in each city to Liaodong!

Hurry!

"ah?"

Song Ming paused for a moment, seemingly realizing that there was something bad going on.

However, the young face of Prince Li Tong of Liao showed a hint of determination.

That's the unwavering determination to protect oneself!

The young Prince Li Tong of Liao, following Song Ming's instructions, relayed the orders one by one.

Seal off the city gates and strengthen defenses!

Send reinforcements!

Just as the garrison in the city was taking action, another message reached the Liao Prince's Palace.

"Your Highness,"

A general knelt on one knee and said, "The army of Prince Xin outside the city is heading towards the west and south gates!"

Accompanying them were those cannons!

It seems very likely that Prince Xin's army will also blow up the West Gate and the South Gate...

"What?"

Prince Li Tong of Liao panicked again and said, "We must not let Prince Xin's army's plan succeed!"

The west and south gates need to be sealed off as soon as possible!

Hurry!

Although Li Tong was quite young, he understood that if all four gates of Liaodong City were destroyed, Liaodong City would be like a woman stripped naked, at the mercy of others.

Li Tong was unwilling to accept such consequences!
