Chapter 279 Temporary Retreat



Sun Er's eyes were filled with shock. "He's actually here with the goddess?"

After saying this, Sun Er felt that such shock was inappropriate.

What's wrong with the goddess?

Fortunately, the goddess is here!

The Thunder Beast had no idea what they were talking about and could only look at them with strange eyes.

Sun Er quickly suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his mind and said, "Goddess, I know how to use it. Not only me, but also many guards can use it. The prince specially asked us to learn it before, just in case."

When he was learning, Sun Er was still thinking that it was a peaceful and prosperous era and an agreement had been signed with the Turks. Even if he had such a powerful weapon and learned how to use it, he didn't know when he would be able to use it.

Unexpectedly, it would be needed not long after this.

Sun Er was rubbing his hands and couldn't wait to get started.

"In that case, then come with us to the city wall and let the Turkic army see how powerful we are."

Sun Er quickly responded, "Yes!"

Lei Shou still didn't know what the two people were talking about, but that didn't stop him from following them up the city wall.

Huge rocks continued to fall, and some people even set up ladders to try to climb up the city wall.

The siege vehicles also slammed into the city gate with force, making a deafening sound.

But the city walls were raised and reinforced.

The city gate looks ordinary on the surface, but inside it is made of a whole piece of iron plate.

The bolt that locks the door is a solid iron rod.

If you want to break down the city gate with a siege vehicle, it will be impossible at least ten days.

The only things that could immediately endanger the people in the city were these huge rocks.

Once you are on the city wall, you must be extremely careful.

Otherwise, a huge rock will fall from the sky, and even if you don’t die, you will be crippled.

Sang Jueqian did not dare to hesitate at all. When he reached the city wall, he immediately took out a cannon from the space.

This cannon was carefully improved by Ban Si. It has a longer range than the previous ones and takes less time to fire.

Sun Er and several guards immediately stepped forward. Some provided cover, some fired cannonballs, and others lit the fire.

Lei Shou didn't know what this was and couldn't help for the time being, but he was not idle either. He was always on guard and careful to protect the safety of Sun Er and others.

Finally, the fuse was lit, the cannon fired, and the shells shot into the sky and hit the Turkic army.

Sun Er didn't care about the shells that had already been fired and immediately put in new ammunition.

Before the second bomb was ignited, the first bomb had already flown into the Turkic army and exploded.

The sound was like thunder in a clear sky, startling everyone.

At the same time as the explosion, a group of Turkic soldiers were blown away. Although some people did not die, they were also affected. They lay on the ground with confused faces and didn't even understand what was going on.

Before they could figure out what was going on, another bomb exploded in another direction.

More Turks realized the enemy attack and started shouting.

They wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide.

There are wilderness on both sides of the road, and it is still some distance away from the mountains. It is wishful thinking to want to hide in the mountains.

Now, they had no time to continue throwing stones, and were only thinking about how to avoid the attack of the artillery shells.

Sang Jueqian glanced at the defense line of the Turkic army and saw that there was chaos in front. He took advantage of this time to take out the other artillery carts in the space and placed one at intervals.

The shells are placed next to the gun carriage and can be taken out whenever needed, which is very convenient.

Thunder Beast immediately walked to the side of a gun carriage, "I'll take care of this!"

The thunder beast's eyes were sparkling, even a little scary.

He had fought in wars with the prince before, and he never knew that there were such weapons in the world.

I have never heard of it or seen it before. It is really amazing!

As long as there are enough artillery shells and ammunition, let alone the 50,000 Turkic troops, even if another 50,000 came, they would not be afraid at all.

Of course, Thunder Beast was just thinking about it.

He only hoped that the Turks would retreat when they saw the difficulty, but he did not want the number of attackers to increase.

Sang Jueqian hid in a concealed position and looked towards the Turkic army. After seeing the situation clearly, he shouted, "Don't shoot randomly, shoot at their catapults!"

There were only so many shells in her space, and she had taken them all out.

It is impossible to capture all 50,000 people with just these artillery shells.

The only thing we can do now is to destroy the enemy's catapults so that they can no longer launch long-range attacks.

As long as they cannot attack from a distance and have no way to break through the city gate and climb the city wall, they will naturally retreat today.

After they withdraw their troops, Sang Jueqian can go to Xizhou to find Ban Si and bring back some artillery shells.

When Lei Shou and others heard Sang Jueqian's command, they immediately changed the direction of their cannons.

The catapults were at the front of the army and were the easiest to aim at.

More than a dozen artillery carts fired at the same time, and the catapults were blown into pieces. The soldiers who threw the stones were all killed.

The catapults were made of wood, and although the soldiers wore armor, they also wore cloth underneath.

After the explosion, both wood and cloth caught fire, quickly turning into a sea of ​​fire. The smell of burning filled the air, with a faint aroma of meat.

When Sang Jueqian thought about where the smell came from, he felt uncontrollably nauseous and almost vomited. He quickly put on a mask.
