Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 659 Showing Power

"Let the echelon team prepare. After the grenade team throws the grenades, immediately seize the city wall and occupy the city gate."

The grenadiers were all in place, and Chang Wei gave the order.

Lu Chang agreed and passed on the order.

All fifty cloud echelons were soon ready.

At this moment, Chang Wei issued the order to drop the bomb.

"Bang bang bang..." Three gunshots rang out, which was an order to the grenadier team.

The purpose was to allow the grenadiers to throw the grenades out at the same time, so as to eliminate the Qi soldiers on the wall by surprise.

Hearing the gunshots, the grenadiers picked up the grenade, unscrewed the back cover, pulled the match cord, and threw the grenade up the city wall.

After throwing the first grenade, they immediately picked up the second grenade and threw it out as well.

Then came the third, then the fourth.

For a moment, grenades flew towards the Wubao wall like locusts.

Seeing things like short sticks flying over one after another, the Qi soldiers on the city wall showed a look of astonishment. They didn't know what they were.

Because there didn't seem to be any danger, they didn't dodge, including Xie Bi, who looked confused.

But at this moment, the first wave of grenades flying over landed on the city wall.

"Boom, boom, boom..." In an instant, the line of the city wall turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Amidst the frequent explosions like firecrackers, Qi soldiers were lifted up by the air waves and fell to the bottom of the city screaming.

The sudden explosion stunned the Qi soldiers for a moment, but then the second wave of grenades arrived.

Then came the third wave, then the fourth wave.

Explosions came one after another, and grenade eggs covered almost every corner of the city wall.

The flames covered the bodies of the Qi soldiers, and the explosions covered their miserable screams.

In just a few minutes, all twelve grenades in the grenadier's basket were thrown over.

The explosion stopped, and there was a dead silence on the city wall.

"Kill!" At this moment, Yanzhou soldiers carrying ladders crossed the tunnel.

They leaned the ladder against the wall of Wubao. The Yanzhou soldiers who followed behind them held a gun with one hand and the ladder with the other, and climbed up the city wall very skillfully.

In addition to the five kilometers on weekdays, climbing ladders is also a subject they must train every day.

It only takes them ten seconds to climb up the seven- to eight-meter-high ladder.

The first soldier climbed up the city wall and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

At this moment, there was not a single living person on the entire city wall. There were mutilated limbs everywhere, and the ground was stained red with blood.

However, he was just stunned for a moment, and immediately stepped aside to let the soldiers behind him follow.

Having experienced the Battle of Jinzhou and the cruel war between Ningjin Dusi and Beidi, he was already a qualified veteran.

As more and more Yanzhou soldiers boarded the city wall, the city wall was quickly occupied.

Because the grenadiers' attack came too suddenly and was extremely lethal.

The Qi soldiers in Wubao did not react at all.

When the general tried to lead his soldiers up the city wall, it was too late.

Yanzhou soldiers formed a tight line along the city wall.

Facing the charging Qi soldiers, he pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang..." Gunshots rang out, and the Qi soldiers near the city wall fell to pieces.

Under the cover of Yanzhou soldiers on the city wall, a school captain led his soldiers down the steps and attacked the city gate.

At this time, there were hundreds of Qi soldiers hiding in the doorway.

Seeing the Yanzhou soldiers coming, they hid deeper into the door. At the same time, they drew their swords and prepared to fight hand-to-hand with the Yanzhou soldiers the moment they entered the door.

The captain discovered the intention of these Qi soldiers, and when he was about to reach the doorway, he shouted to the soldiers: "Grenade."

The soldier following him took off the grenade from his belt, pulled out the matchlock, and threw it toward the door.

"Boom boom boom..."

There was an explosion, and screams immediately sounded from the doorway.

At this time, Yanzhou soldiers rushed over, and a group of Qi soldiers fell on the ground.

There were still a few soldiers who were still alive, holding their broken legs and screaming.

The captain just looked at them lightly and immediately asked the soldiers to open the city gate.

"Creak." The doors of the city gate slowly opened to both sides.

At this time, shouts of killing broke out from outside the city.

Yanzhou soldiers rushed towards the city gate from all directions with guns in hand.

After capturing the city gate, the captain did not stop. He continued to lead his soldiers to kill into the city.

As he went deeper, he shouted, "Surrender without killing."

the soldiers following him shouted in unison.

The crowd's chorus echoed far away.

Through the Qi soldiers captured in Pingyuan City last time, they learned that there were two types of soldiers in the Qi army.

One type is naturally the die-hard faction composed of the core children of the wealthy family and their fellow clan members.

The Zhang family, the largest wealthy family in Yan County, was destroyed. Zhang Qian, Zhang Kang, Zhang Rang, etc. were the core children.

In addition to these core children, there are nearly 20,000 people surnamed Zhang.

These Zhang family members benefited from the Zhang family and only recognized the family head and not the imperial court.

This is also one of the reasons why the Zhang family can control Yan County.

At that time, if they had not been heartbroken by being killed by the royal family's soldiers, they would not have surrendered at all.

The second part of the soldiers is naturally composed of ordinary people recruited.

Of course, there are some things that are unclear, and they are drawn to wealthy and powerful families.

But most soldiers were not so determined to resist.

Based on this judgment, they would not hold back at all against the Qi soldiers who resisted them.

Han Bi and many Qi generals were killed on the spot on the city wall.

The generals in the city were unable to gather the entire army because their official positions were too small, so they could only lead the soldiers under their command to either resist or escape.

Of course, there were many soldiers who knelt on the ground and raised their hands.

Because of the grenades, the Yanzhou soldiers became more courageous when they entered the city.

As for the Qi soldiers who were hiding in nooks and trying to fight with them, they would throw grenades at them whenever they found them.

With a burst of explosion, these Qi soldiers were blown into a pulp.

After seeing the new firearms in the hands of Yanzhou soldiers, the leaderless Qi soldiers' fighting will quickly fell to the bottom.

Wherever the Yanzhou soldiers went, the surrendered Qi soldiers fell on their knees.

And as more Yanzhou soldiers entered Wubao, Qi soldiers were unable to resist.

In the evening, all the stubborn Qi soldiers were wiped out, and Chang Wei and Lu Chang strode into Wubao.

"Evening time is not bad at all." Lu Chang laughed for a while, this grenade is really powerful. "

The corners of Chang Wei's mouth rose. He was very proud of the new method of warfare he invented.

Although the power of mortar shells is much greater than that of hand grenades.

But there is no doubt that grenades can use tunnels to bomb the enemy unexpectedly.

However, this does not mean that the mortar has no effect since then.

If the enemy is stationed in the mountains, where tunnels cannot be dug, they will have to rely on mortars.

However, south of the Jin River, there is basically a flat plain, so his new method of warfare still has great potential.

Thinking of this, he said to the bodyguard beside him: "Pass this general's order to ask Qinshan and Guantong to dig tunnels at night and seize the other two forts early tomorrow morning."
