Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 1099 Swiftness

"Boom boom boom..."

The sound of cannons rumbled like spring thunder.

After the first day of bombardment, the bombardment of Ebony City continued for three more days.

During these three days, other soldiers of the Central Army did not sit idle. Instead, they took off the engineering shovels they carried and dug the trench all the way to the bottom of Ebony City.

Some lancers went to a grove thirty miles away to cut down trees, tied them with ropes and dragged them back with horses to make ladders.

Early on the fourth day, the bombardment stopped.

For Chang Wei, these three days of shelling were enough to severely damage the morale of the Tusman cavalry.

Under the continuous casualties from the shelling, the Tusman soldiers must be demoralized currently, and there is no need to continue wasting artillery shells.

After all, food is easy to get now, but ammunition must be transported from the same level. .

This will consume a lot of manpower and material resources.

Overall, they made no profit or loss by playing Beidi.

Because they not only got the cattle and sheep of the Beidi people, but also the Beidi wealth of the Khan Court.

As for the fight against Tusman this time, it was really a war at a loss, and the losses were quite severe.

This is also the reason why he demanded a quick victory and achieved strategic goals as soon as possible.

However, even if they lose money, they are willing to do so.

After all, regaining your homeland should not be too fussy.

Furthermore, when they regain the Tianshan Mountains and fight against the Tusman Empire, the war will be profitable again.

According to Emperor Zhao Xu, as long as the Tusman Empire is defeated and the order of Middle-earth is controlled, Dasong will control the next switch of world wealth.

The switch is oil.

He doesn't quite understand this concept yet.

Just know that this thing is very important for the grand meeting after industrial upgrading.

But he still had a vague idea of ​​how important it was.

However, since the emperor's decision, he thought it must be right.

In terms of foresight, no one has surpassed this emperor so far.

"Are you ready?" The bombardment stopped, and the next step was to launch a charge against Ebony City.

At this time, Chang Wei asked Bai Shang, Lu Chang and Huo An.

"Ready!" the three of them responded in unison.

Chang Wei nodded, took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, "Attack immediately!"

In response, the three of them turned and left.

Not long after, the trumpeter in the army blew the charge horn.

"Dudu...du...dudu...dudu..."

The clear voice of the Charge spread across the battlefield.

Soldiers of the Central Army entered the trench one after another, and the grenadiers came to the front of the trench carrying baskets of grenades.

There are also soldiers carrying ladders through the trenches.

Seeing Dasong's army launching an attack, the Tusman soldiers at the top of the city immediately bombarded them with participating artillery pieces.

It's just that the sporadic solid bullets fired by their artillery didn't pose much of a threat to the Dasong soldiers in the trench, but instead exposed their position.

The artillery of the Central Army immediately locked the positions of these artillery pieces, and they immediately used rifled artillery to bombard the positions of the opponent's artillery pieces.

Tusman's artillery was immediately silenced by the shelling.

At this time, all the grenadiers who rushed to the front trench reached their predetermined positions.

At this moment, they were only about thirty meters away from the city wall.

Everyone took a grenade, and after receiving the general's order, they threw the grenades one by one on the city wall.

"Boom boom boom..."

Grenades exploded on the wall, sending a line of fire across the wall.

According to experience on the battlefield, whenever they stopped bombarding, the enemy would always take the opportunity to replenish the walls to prepare for the upcoming charge.

This is why they used grenades to clear the city wall before charging.

After all, the error of artillery is too large.

At this time, if the artillery bombards the city wall, it is easy to blow up their own people.

"Come with me!" After the grenade exploded, the Central Army soldiers immediately climbed out of the trench.

Led by the general, they climbed up the wall of Ebony City carrying ladders.

Although the soldiers of the Central Army are responsible for guarding the imperial city and no longer fight with enemies on the border all year round like other armies, their daily training has not been abandoned.

The soldiers moved flexibly, and in just over ten seconds, the first soldier climbed onto the city wall.

The soldiers behind followed closely and climbed onto the city wall one after another.

At this time, there were only a few remaining Tusman soldiers left on the city wall, and the Tusman soldiers below the city had not had time to replenish them.

The Central Army soldiers immediately picked up their Qin-style rifles and pulled the triggers at the Tusman soldiers who rushed towards them.

"Bang bang bang..." After a crisp sound of gunfire, the city wall suddenly became quiet.

The Tusman soldiers under the city wall were all dumbfounded when they looked at the Dasong soldiers who suddenly appeared on the city wall.

They had never seen fighting like this before, and they couldn't keep up with the pace of Dasong's army.

It was as if they were competing to see who could run faster, but one of them reached the end of the horse in an instant, which made people feel desperate.

It's just that the soldiers of the Central Army were obviously not prepared to accompany them in confusion.

Immediately, they started shooting wildly at the Tusman soldiers below the city, and intensive gunfire suddenly sounded.

Some soldiers threw grenades among the Tusman soldiers.

Under the cover of these soldiers, groups of soldiers rushed down the steps.

They want to control the city gate, let more soldiers enter the city, and end this siege as soon as possible.
