There's something wrong with this assassin

Chapter 740
Fang Bie stood in the night, watching the artillery fire rising from the sky.

It has to be said that Da Zhou's military strength was indeed strong. Under Guang Jiqi's strong request, the imperial court finally shipped him more than forty cannons from thousands of miles away.

This is a real cannon, a cannon that fires solid shells that can directly bombard the city walls and even the city gates, it is not the same as those coquettish bastards who can only spray iron sand, porcelain pieces and stones.

If you don't move, you will be done, and if you move, you will be like thunder.

Guang Jiqi's way of marching and using troops is indeed commendable, especially the mastery of the army's heart and strength, which Fang Bie is ashamed of.

But all sides were attacking fiercely, only in front of Fang Bie, the artillery fire was the sparsest.

Fang Bie is by Guang Jiqi's side, because he is responsible for the personal protection of the coach. Since Guang Jiqi rejected Fang Bie's suggestion to climb the city wall to spy on information, in such a chaotic army, even A martial arts master like Fang Bie can't actually do much.

It is not too difficult for a martial arts master to take the head of a general from an army of millions, but it is almost impossible for one person to kill hundreds or thousands of people on the battlefield.

Unless——unless you have a high-precision rifle with a sufficient supply of ammunition, and squat on the city wall every day to release cold bombs, you can barely maintain your life.

Right now, when the cannon stones are flying around and screaming to kill the sky, even Fang Bie is still a mortal body, unable to stop any gunfire at all.

It can only be said that with the development of hot weapons, the magic that martial arts can create will eventually be blown away by the rain and the wind.

"Why don't we attack?" Fang Bie looked at it for a long time, and finally said.

The east city was right in front of them. Although the east city was also being baptized by artillery fire, it was not as intense as the other two outer cities, not to mention that there were no soldiers charging forward to try to attack the city wall.

"Not yet." Guangjiqi said calmly, looking at the dark city wall in front of him.

Guang Jiqi is always waiting for the best time to attack.

He has been waiting since he first came to this land, and continued to wait after the cannon arrived.

Now the time for the general attack has arrived, and he is still waiting when there are shouts of killing from the other two directions.

"Wait for people from Dongcheng to go to both sides to support?" Fang Bie asked.

Guangjiqi nodded, and then shook his head again: "Waiting for them to divide their forces is one thing, and the other is waiting for the opponent's will to fight."

"Didn't you say that the three sides are the main attack?" Fang Bie asked.

Guang Jiqi did say so.

Of course, the most important thing in the Great Zhou Dynasty was the suppression of artillery fire, but even so, it is an indisputable fact that there is not much difference between the attacking force and the defending force, and even slightly weaker.

The ones in front of them are not bandits running around like the Japanese pirates, but the elites who have truly formed a system. It is undoubtedly stupid to not treat the opponent as a human being with one enemy and ten.

"I did say that, but if possible, I would prefer that the city be breached from my side." Guangjiqi said lightly: "Okay, it's almost there."

Saying this, Guang Jiqi raised his hand: "Get ready to fire, open the city gate!"

Yes, blast open the city gate.

After Guang Jiqi gave the order, five [-]-jin bronze cannons adjusted their positions at the same time, and then ignited and fired.

After the deafening gunfire, the smoke filled the eyes, and because it was night, no one knew whether the city gate ahead had become a smooth road.

"Continue to bombard!" Guang Jiqi ordered: "Fire up all the shells, and then charge into the city with me."

"Win or lose here!"

……

……

Since Guang Jiqi said to light up all the shells, of course I will show you all the shells.

Five heavy cannons fired six salvos, and after firing all the shells prepared for tonight, the charge began under the cover of gunpowder smoke and night.

Fang Bie followed behind Guang Jiqi and followed him forward.

The city gate has indeed been opened. To be precise, the original heavy wooden city gate has been beaten to pieces at this time, and it is even impossible to even close the city gate.

"Follow me into the city." Guang Jiqi turned his head and shouted loudly, and at the same time took the lead in leaping into the city.

But the city was indeed silent.

There are no enemies.

There are scattered ordnance and sundries here, and the city walls are full of rubble and debris. Originally, even Fang Bie was ready for a hearty hand-to-hand combat, but everything in front of him was exceptionally calm.

Because there are no enemies.

"Boss, boss, have they all run away?" an excited soldier behind him asked.

Although no enemy means no military exploits and no heads to receive rewards, but no battle means no casualties.

Drunk lying in the battlefield, Lord Grim, a few people have fought back in ancient times.

If Rangping City can really be defeated without bloodshed, this is of course great news.

"Obviously, they ran away, but they won't run too far." Guang Jiqi seemed satisfied with what he saw: "Leave 500 people to garrison Dongcheng, and the rest will continue to enter Pingcheng with me."

"Let's drive out these pirates completely!"

Amidst the shouts of killing, the army continued to move forward, and at the same time, the north and west were also ignited one after another, which meant that the North City and the West City were also breached one after another. The resistance of the Japanese pirates seemed to be a little weaker than imagined .

The outer city is connected to the inner city. Theoretically, the inner city and the inner city support each other. Even if the outer city is breached, the inner city has enough strength to maintain it.

But everything in front of me seems to be going too smoothly.

The inner city still doesn't have much defense, but there are still Japanese troops defending the dangerous places in the city and resisting desperately.

"There's no need to attack by force." Guang Jiqi shook his head and said, "Find more firewood and fire oil, surround it and burn it. Pay attention to firefighting, and don't let Pingcheng burn down."

After the commander gave the order, the whole city of Pingcheng slowly became smoky, and those Japanese troops who were guarding high places and participating in the high walls of the attic slowly ushered in an unexpected bonfire feast.

Fang Bie and Guang Jiqi finally had time to sit together again.

"The others seem to be shooting outside." There was still the faint sound of gunfire outside the window.

Guangjiqi nodded: "But isn't it much smoother than you imagined?"

"It's not that it went smoothly, but it went too smoothly." Fang Bie looked at Guang Jiqi: "Tell me, is this all in your expectation?"

"Although I have a strategy that can defeat Dongpu, I never thought that under your command, they would be so vulnerable?"

Don't think of it.

Because Guangjiqi is like magic, surround it, play with guns, wait a minute.

Then charge today, the opponent is like paper.

"As I said, I need to wait for the other party's fear and give them a way out after fear." Guang Jiqi looked at Fang Bie and said calmly.

PS: I can’t take this break anymore. Fishing is so delicious, let me rebuild it a little bit. I guarantee at least one chapter every day, maybe there will be surprises in the future.
