Chapter 440 Fire Suppression



The last time I came to Taoyuan County, the few people who managed to escape realized that something was wrong and quietly retreated behind the crowd...

Jiang Hu waved his right arm and stopped the brothers. He shouted at the city wall, "What do you mean? Why are you smashing the city wall?"

There was a low chuckle from the city wall.

At this time, the soldiers at the cannon were still loading shells.

Ao Chen rolled his hands into a trumpet and said, "General! My Taoyuan County has been in disrepair for a long time. This city wall is hollow, and the stone slabs are not solid!"

"Today, the general has so many people entering the city. The noise is so loud that it might shake the stone slabs off. That's why we have people break them in advance to avoid startling the general!"

Nonsense!

Jiang Hu cursed inwardly, then asked, "What is the object behind the stone slab?"

"It's the support of the stone slab! General, please wait a moment. Once the debris is cleared, we will open the city gate immediately."

Bracket? Jiang Hu frowned and observed carefully.

Something is wrong, something is very wrong, there must be something fishy going on.

Then he turned around and told the people behind him: "Brothers, tighten the formation and be alert all around!"

There are a total of twelve cannons on the city wall, all of which have been loaded, and the artillerymen are waiting for Ao Chen's order.

Ao Chen looked at the group of people on the ground gradually shrinking and slowly opened his mouth.

You think you're not dying fast enough... and you're doing this!

Seeing that the formation below had been adjusted, Ao Chen raised his arm expressionlessly.

Jiang Hu narrowed his eyes at his strange movements and asked, "What are you going to do? Why don't you open the city gate for me?"

"fire!!!"

The artilleryman picked up the prepared fire starter and lit the fuse.

The next moment, a deafening sound appeared in the sky above Taoyuan County.

Twelve tongues of fire shot out from the muzzle at the same time! !

At such a close distance, even if the artillery's accuracy is poor, it is impossible to miss!

Twelve artillery shells were accurately and evenly distributed among a team of more than a thousand people!

“Boom!” “Boom!!” “Boom!!!”

The moment the shell hit the ground, there was another shocking noise.

Jiang Hu, who had no time to react, only felt a buzzing in his ears!

"!————"

My heart stopped beating instantly! The next second, I felt the horse under my crotch go crazy and throw me off!

Falling to the ground, Jiang Hu had lost the ability to think and even almost stopped breathing.

All I saw was a chaos of horse hooves...and the bodies of my brothers with expressions of fear and pain.

And the remains of limbs... broken arms... blood plasma...

Immeasurable merits... Is this the immeasurable merits that the prince wants! ! ! ?

After a few seconds, the buzzing and wailing sounds in Jiang Hu's ears gradually became louder. He barely held up his upper body and shouted miserably to the crowd: "Brothers, run away!"

“Run away!!!”

But no one responded. Everyone was frightened by this weapon that seemed like a punishment from heaven!

For a while, there was constant trampling, scolding and screaming!

At this moment, artillery appeared in this world and for the first time revealed its hideous face as it should have in history!

“BOOM!!!” “BOOM!!!” “BOOM!!!”

The second round of shelling followed!

Another thunder roared suddenly out of nowhere, and countless pieces of gravel shot out from the air, piercing through countless fragile bodies.

The horse has long been unrideable.

Those who still had any sense had abandoned their horses and fled.

But the speed was much slower. Even though it could avoid the attack of artillery shells, it could not avoid the exploding rubble on the ground.

Although Jiang Hu was lying on the ground, several stones still pierced his body.

Perhaps due to serious internal injuries, Jiang Hu began to spit out blood from his mouth.

He glanced at his brother who was still in a panic and shouted in pain: "Run! Hide under the city gate! They can't hit us..."

Hearing his order, some people began to flee towards the city gate.

Qianhu is right!

Those black pipes obviously can't reach under the city gate, so there will be no problem as long as you hide underneath.

Even if they capture me, it doesn't matter anymore.

As long as I am alive....and can leave this hell, anything is fine!!

Ao Chen looked at dozens or even hundreds of people rushing towards the city gate and immediately shouted, "Explosive packs!"

He had anticipated this situation.

There is a blind spot under the city gate and the artillery's firing range is limited, so explosive packs can be used to make up for the shortfall.

More and more people gathered below, and started throwing the ignited explosive packs down in twos and threes.

Jiang Hu had given up struggling. He was lucky not to have suffered serious direct injuries, but one of his legs seemed to have been broken by the frightened horse, and his ears had been deafened again by the second round of artillery fire.

Looking at the remaining brothers gathered at the city gate, huddled together, with sadness in their eyes.

How could this be.. How could this be! !

They didn't even see the soldiers from Taoyuan County, yet they were defeated to this extent... But they had more than 1,800 elite soldiers!

Any battalion or regiment in the capital can be called the elite among the elite!

In just a short while, they were beaten to pieces! ?

But before he could lament for long, several balls of fire appeared in front of Jiang Hu.

The brothers who were huddled together and shivering under the city just now, all lay down in an instant.

The heavy city gate was also blown into pieces, and some parts were even blown through.

Countless blood and internal organs were scattered on it, like a picture of hell...

Xiao Tao covered her ears and couldn't help but turn her head away as she watched this tragic scene.

Ao Chen also swallowed his saliva. No one in the county had ever fought in a war, so such a brutal scene was really horrifying.

The power of explosive packs and artillery shells is so great that their effects on the human body are beyond imagination!

However, Zhang Biao remained calm. Seeing that the bombing was almost over, he shouted, "Stop the shelling! Don't throw any more explosive packs!"

"Xiao Tao, keep an eye on it for me. I'll take some people to clean up the mess!"

The shelling stopped and Jiang Hu survived by chance.

However, there was no life in his eyes. Through the broken gate of Taoyuan County, he could vaguely see the troops ready for battle behind his lifeless eyes.

Not long after, Zhang Biao and his men arrived at his side.

Jiang Hu raised his head and looked at Zhang Biao who was looking down at him. His heart was filled with grief and self-blame. Suddenly he laughed at himself and said, "I lost. I have to kill..."

Before he could finish, Zhang Biao stepped on his other good leg and broke it.

Jiang Hu fell into coma with a cry...

Zhang Biao shouted loudly: "Brothers, hurry up and chase those who are running away. Don't worry about the injured. Break their legs and leave them where they are. We will deal with them later!!"

"good!!!"

Watching the cavalry scattering and chasing the fleeing enemy, Xiao Tao said to Ao Chen with a serious face: "The situation is serious. Hurry up and interrogate those people. I have to return to the capital as soon as possible to report what happened here to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Continue to send people to guard it strictly and repair the city gates as soon as possible!"

Ao Chen nodded seriously.

.......

Under Haiyuan City.

Fang Zhengyi's motorcade has arrived...
