"Whoosh", an artillery fire was fired first. With a huge sound, the projectiles roared towards Zhao Jun on the top of the city. In order to save the situation, Zhao Jun kept rushing down from the top of the city. At this time, a cannon blast came.

On the spot, a group of Zhao soldiers holding shields were beaten into a bloody passage.

All the Zhao soldiers had shields. They climbed up from the city wall. The shields still provided some protection for the muskets. But for the artillery, their encounter was very disastrous.

The powerful impact of the projectiles shattered the shields and Zhao Jun soldiers to pieces. Blood and flesh spattered all over the ground. The soldiers who followed behind were beaten into bloody rotten flesh without knowing why. The following were followed in the same order.

, until the projectile has no lethality.

"Bang. Bang" Then two more cannons opened fire, and one artillery hit the tower. Half of the tower collapsed instantly. Zhao Jun, who started rushing down from the top of the city, began to hesitate. They were really afraid of the power of this weapon.

With just one loud noise, many people were almost killed, and not a single corpse was found. These Zhao troops had also gone through bloody battles, but this was the first time I had seen such blood.

"Fire from the musketeers." A row of musketeers began to aim at Zhao Jun standing on the tower.

"Bang bang." There was a sound of popping beans. The shooting was relatively sparse, but Zhao Jun, who was still in a daze, was shot one after another.

"Shoot." The second row of musketeers fired again.

"Bang bang bang." Lightning and thunderous shooting. The projectiles began to ruthlessly harvest the lives of the Zhao army soldiers. They also had shields in their hands, but the power of the muskets was destined to kill them because they stood within the effective range of the muskets.

.

Zhao Jun's soldiers fell in droves. The captain who commanded the battle was a little frightened. The captain was also a veteran in the battlefield, but he had never seen such a scene. The fire-breathing pipe was really too powerful.

Awesome. The things sprayed out flashed like mosquitoes.

However, the eyes cannot see clearly at all. Once bitten, one will either die or be seriously injured. This is how the neck of a Zhao Army soldier was broken. But the flying projectiles beat another Zhao Army soldier to death.

Seriously injured, the passage leading to the city was a piece of flesh and blood. The Zhao army soldiers were frightened.

"Fire the artillery," Wang Ben shouted loudly.

"Bang bang." The two artillery pieces fired one after another. The shells roared and hit the Zhao army on the city wall. Since they were fired upwards, the effect was not very obvious. The fired shells flew over the city in a parabola and landed on the city wall.

In the distance, Zhao Jun's formation.

Zhao Jun's archers originally stayed outside the city to provide support. Due to the rapid attack on the city, they did not evacuate quickly, and the flying shells just landed in the archer formation.

After the cannonball hit the ground and killed Zhao Jun, it bounced up and killed more Zhao Jun soldiers. Fortunately, only their limbs were taken away. The archer camp was suddenly disrupted.

Li Mu vaguely heard the sound of some rumbling artillery, and couldn't help but feel something bad in his heart. Because only the Qin army had such loud weapons, he was really afraid that the Qin army would suddenly use such weapons, or the Qin army would help.

The Yan army defended the city.

When he saw the flying artillery shells disrupting the archers' formation, Li Mu finally realized that something was wrong.

"Quickly, withdraw the archers quickly." Li Mu immediately issued the order. "Here." A captain on the side immediately executed.

"Sima Shang, take your 50,000 troops and charge in from the south gate immediately. You must be quick." Li Mu shouted loudly. The situation has become very urgent. At first, Li Mu originally planned to attack Yan from two sides.

On one side are their own 30,000 elite troops, and on the other side are Sima Shang's 50,000 troops. Both sides of the siege are critical points, and the offensive will be very fierce.

As long as one of them goes south, the other can advance successfully. Zhao Jun made rapid progress at the beginning, and Li Mu did not intend to use Sima Shang's troops. After all, low combat effectiveness was a huge shortcoming of that troops. Once there was a slight setback, the morale of the army would be

Once the situation changes, the outcome will be uncontrollable. It is very likely that your own army will suddenly become a defeated army. At that time, it will be out of control.

Wang Ben's artillery was unable to deal with the Zhao army on the top of the city. Lowering the firing angle would directly bombard the city wall, reducing the defensive ability of the city wall. Only the musketry team could complete the attack on the city wall. However, Wang Ben clearly knew the power of the muskets.

Limitations, muskets cannot fire continuously. Once the city is attacked from the city ladder, the shooting angle of the muskets will become smaller. The following

The musketeers were unable to fire in time. The musketeers who had finished shooting in front had to directly face the charging Zhao army in a small section. Such an approach was undoubtedly suicide. Wang Ben was unwilling to do this. The number of musketeers was originally

Just a few. If this happens, the losses will be staggering. If Zhao Jun is driven out, his own musketeers will also be completely lost.

"General Wang, can you let the musketeers attack the city? We have to regain the city as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be endless trouble." After Yan Fen saw the power of muskets and artillery, he began to believe in these two weapons.

"General Yan, this is a bit difficult. The musketeers can't attack the city." Wang Ben said in embarrassment.

"Why?" Yan Han asked quickly.

"If the muskets attack the city, they must fight on the city ladder. The muskets are slow to load and cannot fire continuously. Once in close combat, they will be killed by the Zhao army and suffer huge losses." Wang Ben said.

"Isn't there no way out?" Yan Yan said rarely.

"General Yan, there is a way, but it depends on you, General." Wang Ben said.

"Oh, tell me quickly." Yan Han asked eagerly.

"General, the Zhao army has been unable to enter the city. There are not many worries. I will resist here for a while. The general will quickly mobilize his troops and attack the city quickly. It is best to mobilize the archers and shoot randomly from below the city." Wang Ben expressed some of his thoughts.

"Well, General Lao is here for you." After saying this, Yan Han clasped his fists in salute, turned around and left, and quickly mobilized his troops.

"The Musketeers continue to shoot." Wang Ben shouted loudly.

Zhao Jun on the top of the city has been completely suppressed. After suffering huge casualties, Zhao Jun began to learn to lower his body and hide behind the city wall. Yan Jun was unable to organize an effective attack and could only shoot randomly. Some Yan Jun

The army began to block the city gate again, but Zhao Jun could not counterattack. Yan Jun could not counterattack either. The two sides were in a stalemate.

In the palace of King Yan, King Yan was already a little panicked when he heard that Dongcheng had been captured. King Yan, who had been hanging out with his concubines all night, immediately prepared to run away, regardless of his messy clothes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." A servant came over in a hurry.

King Yan ignored him at all and prepared to escape with all his hands and feet.

"Your Majesty, we have secured it. Dongcheng has been secured." The attendant shouted loudly.
