So few people deploy artillery in the front.
But there are exceptions.
This tactic is fine when your own cavalry can crush the enemy cavalry.
Looking at the artillery's moving figures, Zhu Cixiong asked Liu Zhaoji beside him with some concern: "Will this tactic work?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness. There will be absolutely no problem. As long as Zhu Guobi's cavalry dares to move, our cavalry will be able to annihilate them. During the Battle of Tongguan, General Qin Liangyu used this tactic to inflict heavy damage on the bandits and captured Tongguan."
Zhu Cijiong glanced in the direction of Sichuan and nodded slightly: "That's good!"

Now there are three paths before him.
One is to charge forward under artillery bombardment.
The second is to escape into the city and defend it to the death.
The third is to abandon the city and flee.
While he was hesitating, Zhu Cijiong's artillery opened fire.
