Become a feudal king from today

"Boom boom boom..."

Han Qi was thinking hard and puzzled when suddenly Yanzhou's artillery roared.

Cannonballs roared and hit the city wall.

At the same time, Yanzhou soldiers once again carried the ladder and came towards Pingyuan City.

"You are really looking for death!" Han Qi snorted and said to the artillerymen: "Load them all with grape bullets and beat them to a pulp."

After receiving the order, the artillerymen of Qi State immediately picked up grape bullets and stuffed them into the barrel of the cannon.

However, the muzzle of the cannon was very high, so they could only load the shells while standing. Since the muzzle of the cannon slightly extended out of the city wall, their bodies were exposed to the muzzles of the Yanzhou soldiers.

"Bang bang bang..."

There were bursts of fire and white smoke rising from more than 2,000 foxholes.

Under the firing of rifle guns, the Qi artillerymen loaded with artillery shells suddenly fell into a pool of blood.

Han Qi's face suddenly turned ugly.

The artillery not only has to be loaded, but also has to clean the barrel after firing, which will expose the soldiers to Yanzhou soldiers.

"Kill them!" Han Qi pointed at the Yanzhou soldiers in the pit.

Although loading was hindered, more than a dozen artillery pieces were loaded successfully.

After receiving his order, Qi's artillery aimed at the pit.

But they discovered that the moment the artillery fired, these soldiers shrank into the pit.

Their shells could not hurt the Yanzhou soldiers in these pits at all.

After the sound of cannons, these soldiers showed their heads again, aimed their muskets at the city wall, and waited for opportunities to shoot.

Once Qi's artillery was exposed, dozens or hundreds of bullets flew towards them.

At the same time, Yanzhou's artillery continued to bombard their artillery.

Gun mounts were constantly being destroyed, and the artillery pieces were deformed by the shells and rolled down the city wall.

The exploding shells also kept firing, causing heavy casualties to Qi soldiers.

Under the triple harassment of Yanzhou soldiers, Qi's artillery was basically unable to fight for a while. The city walls were piled with corpses, and the soldiers guarding the city walls changed one after another.

This indiscriminate bombing continued until noon.

At this moment, the Yanzhou heavy infantry carried the ladder and rushed towards Pingyuan City with shouts of killing.

When they came to the city wall, they put the ladder up and climbed up quickly.

The skirmishers covered them and fired bullets at the city wall to prevent the Qi soldiers from approaching the ladder.

"Come on, get them all on me!"

The situation suddenly became bad. Han Qi was angry and anxious and could only keep urging the soldiers to resist.

After a while, the heavy infantry broke through many city walls.

They jumped off the city wall, waved their long swords, and slashed at the Qi soldiers.

For a time, there was chaos on the city wall.

Taking advantage of the chaos, some heavy infantrymen rushed to the Qi artillery, took out nails, and smashed the nails into the primer holes of the artillery.

"Fire!"

Before the heavy infantry climbed onto the city wall, the Qi generals assembled a group of matchlock soldiers to assemble on the city wall.

Looking at the Yanzhou heavy infantry fighting with the Qi soldiers, they gave orders to shoot regardless of the Qi soldiers' life or death.

In their opinion, the death of these Qi soldiers was a small matter, but the taking away of the city wall was a big deal.

Therefore, they would rather sacrifice these soldiers together than kill Yanzhou's heavy infantry.

"Bang bang bang..." There was a burst of gunfire.

Immediately, heavy infantry and Qi soldiers fell under the guns of Qi matchlock soldiers.

After being shot by their own people, the fighting Qi soldiers suddenly fell into panic. They retreated one after another, trying to hide behind the matchlock soldiers.

Upon seeing this, the Yanzhou heavy infantry immediately picked up the corpses of Qi soldiers on the ground and used them as human shields.

The city wall of Pingyuan City is only ten meters long. Excluding the positions occupied by both sides, there are only five or six meters between them.

"Bang bang bang..." There was another burst of gunfire, and the bullet hit the Qi soldier's body, bursting out a ball of blood.

Taking advantage of the gap when the third row of matchlock soldiers came forward, the heavy infantry pushed the bodies of the Qi soldiers forward, and then rushed into the matchlock soldiers with a single arrow step.

The arquebuses of these arquebusiers were not equipped with bayonets.

The heavy infantry fought against them at hand-to-hand combat, just like tigers entering a flock of sheep.

The long knife was raised, blood splashed, and the arquebusiers fell into a pool of blood one by one. Suddenly, the arquebusiers were in chaos.

At this time, following the heavy infantry, the royal riflemen scaled the city wall.

They drew their bayonets from their waists, mounted them on their muskets, and immediately joined the battle.

One by one, Qi soldiers were picked and killed by them.

As the number of Yanzhou soldiers on the city wall increased, the Qi soldiers gradually became unable to hold on and were forced off the city wall and withdrew into the city.

The soldiers of the royal palace immediately took control of the city wall, and the riflemen lined up in horizontal lines beside the city wall and began to shoot at the Qi soldiers within 200 meters.

The heavy infantry rushed down the city wall, entered the doorway, and removed the stones and sandbags blocked by the Qi soldiers.

"Stop them!"

Han Qi also withdrew into the city with his soldiers. Seeing that the North City Gate was about to be opened by King Yan's soldiers, he looked horrified.

But everything was in vain. The fall of the northern city wall greatly reduced the morale of Qi soldiers.

Even if a soldier who was greedy for a big reward tried to rush over, he would be shot when he was 200 meters away from the city wall.

Seeing the miserable condition of their companions, other soldiers did not dare to rush over.

This is tantamount to committing suicide.

Several times in a row, all the soldiers who rushed over failed. Han Qi felt like he had drank a lot of ice water in the summer.

Looking angrily at the Yanzhou soldiers on the city wall, he ordered the Qi soldiers to enter various streets and houses, preparing to fight to the death with the Yanwang soldiers.

"well played!"

Outside the city, there is an aerial fort, and Chang Wei has a panoramic view of the scene on the city wall.

Seeing that the northern wall was occupied by the soldiers of the palace, he immediately ordered the whole army to press forward.

For him, this war should also end.

If the 100,000-man army can't even deal with these Qi soldiers in the past few days, he won't have to be a general.

After all, when fighting the Northern Di, his soldiers were ten times stronger than one.

Although the Qi soldiers also have artillery and muskets.

But compared with the soldiers of Yanzhou, the quality is obviously far behind.

Moreover, the time they have been exposed to firearms is far less than that of the soldiers of Yanzhou, and their training in firearms is probably even worse.

His order was issued, and the remaining large troops began to move towards Pingyuan City in a mighty manner.

At this moment, the soldiers of the palace who occupied the north city gradually captured other walls along the city wall.

The army of the palace was divided into three routes.

One route went north to support the soldiers who climbed the city wall.

One route went around the west and captured the western wall.

One route went around the east and captured the eastern wall.

In less than an hour, the soldiers of the palace controlled the three walls of Pingyuan City.

Only the southern wall was left for the Qi soldiers to escape.

But halfway along the way, they had already set up an ambush with cavalry, ready to kill them with blood.

In the evening, Chang Wei led Qin Shan, Guan Tong, Lu Chang and other generals into Pingyuan City.

Climbing up the wall of Pingyuan City, Chang Wei looked into the city.

At this moment, the soldiers of the royal palace were attacking southwards under the leadership of the generals.

Gunshots were heard from time to time in the streets and houses.
