Iron Dynasty

Faint smoke drifted in the air, and a strong smell of gunpowder came to the face.

Luo Xin, who was in front of the artillery, shuddered at the moment when the loud noise occurred. Although he insisted that he did not sit on the ground, everyone could see that his legs were shaking slightly.

Niu Ben and Lu Fei's faces were a little pale. They didn't cover their ears just now. As generals, they still have to face the soldiers.

So Luo Xin kept staring during the ignition, posing as if he was not afraid of anything.

At this moment, Niu Ben couldn't help but glanced at Xiao Ming gratefully. Fortunately, he was not riding a horse just now, otherwise he would have been thrown to the ground by the frightened warhorse.

Looking at the soldiers who were chasing the fleeing horses, Niu Ben looked at the artillery in front of Luo Xin again, and his eyes gradually changed.

If this artillery is used in front of the formation, it will surely disturb the horses of the barbarian cavalry.

Your Highness, why is this thing so loud? Luo Xin turned to Xiao Ming at this moment.

At this time, he gradually regained his composure, and pretended to be calm and talked to Xiao Ming as usual.

Can you call a cannon if it doesn't ring? Xiao Ming said as he approached the cannon.

Because of the strong recoil, the position of the artillery moved a bit backwards, and the position needs to be recalibrated for the next launch. It seems that the weight of the artillery base needs to be increased.

He looked at the Wubao of the Liu family again. At this time, the gate of the Wubao of the Liu family was smashed out by artillery.

Artillery is a straight-line killing, and the aiming is accurate, which is why the artillery can kill a large number of enemies on the battlefield.

A line is played, and in ancient times when people were used to dense formations, it was basically similar to the string of candied haws.

Although the power of the catapult is great, it is only a point of damage, and it is not enough to deal with soldiers. The siege effect is good.

A few more shots and blow the gate of this Wubao open to me.

The first shot was successfully fired, and the artillery performed well.

The gate of Wubao is also very thick, but at this time it can withstand the bombardment of artillery solid bullets, and it is estimated that it will basically be torn apart after a few more shots.

I'm not coming. Like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Luo Xin did not turn his head back to the army.

The moment the artillery was fired just now, his scalp was numb.

Hahaha……

There was a burst of laughter in the army, which was the laughter of the soldiers, but they were not mocking Luo Xin when they thought that they were scared just now.

In fact, the artillery sounded like thunder, and humans and animals had an instinctive fear of this sound.

This is also why artillery requires long training.

Qingzhou was in chaos here, and Liu Chuang in Wubao was even more unbearable. At the moment of the loud noise, many gangsters were directly frightened to the ground.

And the bandits guarding the city gate were even more chaotic, because as soon as the sound appeared, the gate shattered.

It's just that the horror is still behind, a black object directly passes through the gate and smashes the ten soldiers who are guarding behind it. The first soldier's body and chest are bloody, the second soldier's arm is broken, and the third soldier's head is smashed. It became a paste directly, and the death was very miserable.

What the hell is this? It is said that King Qi can do magic, is it true?

The gangsters who survived were all pale.

Liu Chuang on the tower was not much better. At this time, someone came up to tell the following situation, and he was shocked.

At this time, the Qingzhou Army outside the city seemed to be preparing to use that thing again.

They are going to blow open the city gate. What the hell is this? Why is it so terrifying! Liu Chuang exclaimed in his heart, but he, like the other soldiers, believed that this was King Qi's sorcery.

Because this was what he saw with his own eyes, he vaguely understood that it was the explosion of gunpowder.

What should I do? Many people at the gate of the city are too scared to approach. The man said.

For the first time, Liu Chuang felt desperate. Now the tunnel has not been opened, and this strange weapon will soon smash the city gate.

Fight them! Liu Chuang said angrily, Let the brothers prepare the guys.

Yes! The man responded and quickly went down the tower.

They knew very well that there was no room for negotiation between these noble children and King Qi, either you died or I died.

Outside the city, Chen Qi was calmly cleaning the barrel and reloading it. Luo Xin was not happy, so he replaced Chen Qi, because Chen Qi and other craftsmen had long been itchy.

After the artillery was loaded, Chen Qi and the others used the aiming star on the artillery to aim at the gate of Wubao again.

Boom! There was another sound, and there was another hole in the gate of Wubao.

Behind the artillery, Niu Ben and Xiao Ming stood side by side. After five years of hard labor in the mines, Niu Ben believed that nothing could make him feel up and down.

But today his heart that had been silent for a long time was once again turbulent. He said to Xiao Ming: No wonder Your Highness dares to guard Cangzhou alone. With this weapon, it will definitely catch the barbarians by surprise. I am afraid that the barbarians will encounter a hard bone this time.

The old general values ​​this artillery so much, I feel at ease. This artillery is only the first one. Subsequent artillery pieces will be installed on the gate of Cangzhou to resist the barbarians. Xiao Ming said.

Niu Ben nodded and asked, Your Highness, how many artillery pieces can be produced in a month, and how many gates can Cangzhou City have when the barbarians attack the city?

At most fifty, this is still when the materials are sufficient. Xiao Ming frowned.

The production of an artillery requires a lot of procedures. Even if there is an iron mold, it is not a matter of a day or two to cast an artillery.

It's May, and he doesn't have much time to produce artillery.

If there is enough ammunition, fifty gates is enough. Niu Ben said, As long as you destroy the barbarian siege vehicles and cloud ladders, the barbarians will never be able to attack Cangzhou City.

Niu Ben mentioned the key point. The most important thing in sieging a city is to break open the city gate, and breaking the city gate basically relies on siege equipment. Soldiers cannot climb the city tower with only their hands and feet.

And this artillery has a long range, great power, and can shoot accurately. When the time comes, the siege equipment will be shot wherever it is, enough for the barbarians to drink a pot.

When the two were talking, there was another Boom, and only Chen Qi's voice was heard, The door is open, the door is open.

Xiao Ming looked at it, and sure enough, there was a gap in the city gate of Wubao, and a hole was broken in the middle of the city gate, presumably the position of the door bolt was hit.

Niu Ben saw it at the same time, and then he drew his knife and shouted, Kill!

The Qingzhou Army, who had been holding back for three days outside the city, had long been angry with this group of bandits, and at this time rushed towards Ubao like a hungry wolf.

On the tower, Liu Chuang looked at the silver torrent of steel, and immediately turned around and went down the tower.

The Qingzhou Army was five times as big as themselves, and they were still wearing this armor that looked invulnerable, so their defeat was decided.
