Chapter 1428 General Guo, the imperial artillery will fight tonight (first update)
Chapter 1437

Gulnashu, who was standing aside, frowned, and bowed deeply to Xiao Shen. "Master Xiao, it's not that our female warriors don't try our best, but the Song Kingdom can't hold on, and with the support of the Song Kingdom's navy on both wings, we can only attack this solid city wall."

"However, this city wall is made of masonry and is very strong. Even the giant stone bombs thrown by the trebuchet can only make a shallow pit on it, and there is no way to destroy the wall. I also ask Mr. Xiao to be sympathetic..."

"Forget it, now that the commander of the Liao Dynasty has arrived, and you have led the army to attack for nearly a month, in your opinion, how should we take the Liaodong Peninsula?" Xiao Shen stroked his well-groomed long beard, Gulnashu asked.

Gulnashu glanced at the scheming Xiao Shen, and after thinking about it, he carefully chose his words. "In my opinion, I'm afraid it will take tens of thousands of troops to forcibly attack the two wings to attract the troops of the Song army, and then concentrate a large number of catapults to try to destroy a section of the city wall."

"It's just that I don't know how the Song people built the city wall. It's so strong that it's hard to destroy even if there are more stone throwing machines."

"Hmm... Order the three armies to rest early. Also, let those craftsmen and civilians take good care of those trebuchets, and don't let the people of Song Dynasty sneak into my camp by looking for opportunities, understand?"

"General Gulnashu, you lead the female straight warriors to the east gate, and you, Yelvbadun, are stationed outside the west gate. Tomorrow, I will let those Song people enjoy the spectacular sight of hundreds of catapults firing together." .”

"This must mean that the main force of the Liao army has also arrived. This time, a lot of people really came, and they even got so many trebuchets. My dear, there must be seven or eight if there are not a hundred of them. Ten seats, right?" A general of the Song Army stood on the city wall, looked down the city with a telescope and complained.

Master Zhong stroked his long beard and smiled casually.

"It should be 110 three-seater trebuchets. Although Liao's imitation trebuchets are inferior to our Song Dynasty's trebuchets, but if they compete for quality with quantity, they may still be able to break through our defenses. But unfortunately, we still have three hundred Yuanyou Shenwei cannons that have not been fired."

"Marshal, now that the main force of the Liao army has arrived, shouldn't it be time for us to play? These days, the brothers are really suffocating." Guo Shang strode forward and saluted Mr. Chong.

Since the start of the war, Guo Chang's invitation to fight several times has been declined by Zhong Shidao with various reasons. He believes that nowadays, it is unnecessary to expose the [-] yuan too early to fight with those Jurchen barbarians who don't work hard. Bless God's mighty cannon.

The 24 Yuanyou stone catapults alone are enough. Indeed, the progress of the matter is indeed as analyzed by the teacher, but in the first few days, the female straight army attacked like a tide, but later, when they found that the attack was useless. , Then start the model of fishing for three days and drying the net for two days to practice foreign skills here.

After all, with all the siege weapons on the side already destroyed, if the [-] female warriors were to be filled by people alone, they would definitely not be able to tear down the two-foot-thick city wall.

But now, the main army of Beiliao has finally arrived here, and the number of catapults used in the siege has reached 110, which proves that the opponent wants to go down at once. At this time, Guo Shang naturally can't let this go good opportunity.

"General Guo doesn't have to be like this. This time, even if you don't take the initiative to ask for a battle, the commander will invite you to fight, and the time is tonight." Zhong Shidao smiled at Guo Chang, raised his hand and pointed forward.

"Look, over there is the camp of the female straight army, and on the other side is the big camp of the Liao army. As for Suzhou City, the female straight army stationed in the city has moved there and left it to the Liao army. The commander of the army also has the Pishi Army of the Liao Kingdom as their barracks."

"The army of the Liao Kingdom has arrived. And we only used those Yuanyou catapults in our previous attack and defense. Therefore, those female straight soldiers and horses who have arrived by mistake, and the Liao army who have arrived now feel that as long as they are a hundred feet away, It's safe."

"Today, the leather army of the Liao Kingdom is all in the city of Suzhou, while the rest of the Liao army and the Nvzhi army are all encamped two miles away from the city wall. The range of the Yuanyou Shenwei cannon can cover them all within the range. Inside."

"It turns out that you, Commander, have been suppressing the artillery in front of the imperial court, and this is actually the idea?" Now, those generals of the Liaodong Army who have always complained in private about Zhong Shidao's reluctance to use Yuanyou Shenwei cannon for offense and defense They finally understood.

Damn it, I didn’t expect that my coach turned out to be an old yinbi. He had been holding back his big moves. Looking at the number of enemies outside the city, there were close to [-], and they were all within shooting range. Thinking about the power of the artillery that I had seen before, I was afraid that Three hundred cannons fired at the same time, the scene will definitely be extremely shocking.

"How about General Guo, how about this commander giving you the opportunity to make your imperial artillery famous in front of the world?" Zhong Shidao stroked his long beard and asked Guo Shang who looked surprised.

"Thank you, Marshal, tonight must be the day when our Great Song Yuqian artillerymen show their power to the world." Guo Shang and other generals of the army saluted respectfully towards Master Zhong.

"Okay, although it won't start until night, but now, General Guo, you have a lot of things to do. Hurry up and get busy. I hope you can make a name for yourself and don't let me wait and invent such a country. Master Wang, who is a sharp weapon, is disappointed."

"Promise!" After Guo Shang, Xu Zhao and others agreed sharply, they quickly ran towards the city wall.

"Hurry up, hurry up, tell the soldiers of the battalion quickly, and tell them that the good days of my Great Song Imperial Artillery Corps have finally come. By the way, where are the students in the capital?"

"Uh, they should be playing ball now..." Xu Zhao said helplessly. "These young people can't sit still."

"This group of young people, that's all, hurry up and tell them the news, let them cheer me up, don't embarrass us imperial artillery." Guo Shang also said helplessly.

#####
"Pass it over here! Quickly, quickly..." Guo Shang roared, waving his arms desperately, flying the opponent's players who were close to him to the side, and after catching the ball, he knocked down another one with brute force. Continue to run forward.

At this moment, there was an extra figure in his line of sight, and it was the General Xu who had brought him.

"The game is suspended!" Seeing Xu Zhao waving his arms vigorously, Cao Ye, who was serving as a referee, had no choice but to blow the bamboo whistle.

"General Xu, what are you doing? Our side is about to win..." Guo Shang said angrily as he threw the ball in his hand to the ground helplessly.

"Assemble!" Xu Zhao shouted sharply, ignoring the dozens of rolling eyes and those complaints.The military order is like a mountain, no matter how much dissatisfaction there is, all the students can only get together honestly and stand in a row.

"The commander-in-chief ordered the imperial artillery to prepare for battle immediately, and now is the day when our imperial artillery of the Great Song Dynasty will show off its power in the world, understand?" Xu Zhao's expressions that seemed helpless and frustrated suddenly brightened as soon as Xu Zhao said these words.
