"The Tang army is moving!" on the wall of Tiancheng, the garrison exclaimed when they saw the mobilization of people and horses among the Tang army.
In full view of the public, the three teams marched towards the other three city gates.
"Tell the city master that the Tang army has surrounded us all around!" the general of Tiancheng reported to Ju wenshenghui with worry.
"The Tang army has a good plan. Relying on a large number of soldiers, it even attacks around, but it is deliberately dispersing our defensive forces." Ju Wensheng said with hatred. In his opinion, the Tang army's attack in the west makes Tiancheng not know which side the Tang army's main attack direction is.
"Immediately divide troops to defend the four city gates. Don't let Tang Jun cross the minefield." Ju Wensheng waved his big hand.
Although he thought he had guessed Tang Jun's plan, Ju Wensheng had no choice but to divide his troops into four groups.
The guarding General of Tiancheng solemnly said, "don't worry, city Lord. I have enough equipment for guarding the city. The soldiers will never succeed the Tang army."
The garrison of Tiancheng city hurried away, and the troops of the east gate were suddenly much less. However, Ju Wensheng was a little relieved when he saw that there were enough garrison equipment on the city wall. Tiancheng had made sufficient preparations for the defense one year in advance. As long as the Tang army could not afford to attack and occupy Tiancheng, it would naturally retreat.
However, Ju Wensheng did not know that the Tang army was not the main attack on a city gate. He did not find that among the three armies, but each had an insignificant team to follow.
"Dong Dong Dong!"
With the sound of the drums of the Tang army, both the offensive and defensive sides were shocked, and they immediately knew that the war was about to begin.
"Attack!"
Hou Junji looked at the heavily guarded Tiancheng. With a wave of his long sword, the Tang army immediately pressed forward.
"Catapult, let go!"
As a school captain drank, huge stones were thrown high by a stone throwing machine and smashed onto the wall of Tiancheng.
"Bang bang!"
One stone after another fell heavily under the city wall, and only a few stones fell on the city wall. This attack of the Tang army did not hurt several people at all.
"Hahaha! The Tang army came all the way and really became a soft footed shrimp!" the guards of Tiancheng mocked when they saw that the stone throwing machine of the Tang army was very poor.
The captain's face remained unchanged, turned back and said coldly, "adjust the angle and continue to throw stones."
With the second wave of stone throwers sent, a group of stones accurately hit the wall, and for a moment, people turned upside down in the field city.
The school captain couldn't help smiling with satisfaction when he saw the effect of this wave of catapults. With the continuous research of Zu Mingjun's parabola, calculating the falling point of catapults has been widely used in military catapults. Now all the catapults of Tang army can adjust the angle, which has been very accurate.
"Avoid, avoid throwing stones!" Ju Wensheng warned loudly when he saw that the garrison had suffered heavy losses. However, the Tang army's stone throwers were like eyes. Stone artillery shelled on the Tiancheng wall one by one, which could not lift their heads to suppress the garrison.
Seeing that the catapult gave the Tang army the upper hand, Hou Junji waved his hand and the infantry pressed on one after another,
"Fight back!"
Seeing the large-scale attack of the Tang army, Ju Wensheng refused to show weakness and ordered that the defenders of Tiancheng immediately fight back. Relying on the advantages of the city wall, the arrow rain rushed at the Tang army from above the city wall.
Hou Junji snorted coldly, "just waiting for you! Crossbow soldiers fight back!"
Suddenly, black clouds rose from the Tang army and flew directly towards the defenders of Tiancheng. At this moment, the three-stage crossbow shooting method of the Tang Army played incisively and vividly. It was not stingy with crossbows, and waves of arrow rain attacked Tiancheng.
For a moment, the garrison of Tiancheng was suppressed again, and the Tang army had approached Tiancheng.
"The city Lord, the Tang army is powerful and has approached the city wall." a guard anxiously reported to Ju Wensheng, who is curled up on the battlements.
Ju Wensheng sneered: "Tang Jun thought it would be too arrogant to conquer Tiancheng easily. Send orders and prepare Thunder Stone rolling wood and gold juice. This time, I'll give Tang Jun a cruel!"
Gaochang is adjacent to the Tang Dynasty, and the skills of guarding the city have been learned incisively and vividly for a long time. Leishi rolling wood doesn't say for the moment. The golden juice boils the dung water and splashes it over the city wall. Once it is splashed on the soldiers, it will not only scald the soldiers, but also breed a large number of bacteria. Once it is recruited, it will be ten dead and no life. There are so many weapons for guarding the city, This made Ju Wensheng confident to stop the attack of the Tang army.
"The city master is not good. The goal of the Tang army is the city gate!" a guard general suddenly exclaimed.
Ju Wensheng quickly looked sideways and saw that among the Tang army's attack team, Tang army suddenly accelerated and ran straight to the city gate with a huge box. This is the blasting team of the firearms supervisor.
"Is it the new siege weapon of the Tang army, but you fell into the trap. The city gate is the key object of the city master's control. This time, you must be gone."
"Shoot an arrow! Don't let him near the gate!" Ju Wensheng shouted.
Suddenly, regardless of the suppression of the Tang army's Crossbow soldiers, the garrison shot at the firearm supervision blasting team one after another. However, these bows and arrows were shot on the blasting team, but they were snapped away. I saw that the whole firearm supervision team was wearing heavy armor one by one. Each piece was made of Mohist refined steel. The defensive power reached the limit, and ordinary weapons could not hurt them at all.
"Wood rolling stone gold juice." Ju Wen roared. Since bows and arrows did not work for them, he did not believe that these people could block these heavy weapons and biological and chemical weapons.
Ju Wensheng saw that the garrison soldiers had prepared these heavy weapons for guarding the city. He couldn't help laughing, but he didn't see that more than ten black spots on his head were flying towards the gate tower.
As the defenders, they will naturally take the gate tower as the key defense object. However, the gate tower is also the key attack object of the enemy.
"Be careful, Lord!" a Gaochang soldier saw the stone cannon coming quickly and quickly overwhelmed Ju Wensheng and protected him under his body.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A violent explosion suddenly sounded from the gate building, and bursts of heat waves came, along with the screams of Gaochang soldiers. However, this was not over. Soon, there was a loud noise from the other three gate buildings.
"No, it's gunpowder. The firearm supervisor is coming. Stop the team!" Ju Wensheng pushed away the soldiers protecting him and said in a hurry.
However, when he looked up, he saw that there were few soldiers who could stand on the whole gate. At the same time, other stone throwing machines also attacked the gate tower. Tiancheng was no longer able to prevent the firearms supervision team from approaching the gate.
"It's over! This time, Tiancheng is over!" Ju Wensheng said disheartened.
"Firearm monitor!" in the telescope, Hou Junji kept staring at the action direction of the firearm monitor. He saw that the firearm monitor blasting team quickly installed gunpowder on the city gate and retreated along the root of the city wall, while other Tang troops participating in the detailed attack retreated one after another according to the established tactics.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With the four loud sounds, even if Hou Junji was far behind the army, he still couldn't help shaking his mind.
"The power of gunpowder is greater!" Hou Junji was shocked. The gunpowder in the firearm prison this time is more powerful than that in Tuyuhun's last western expedition.
"General, don't worry. This batch of gunpowder is the greatest power that the firearm blasting team can carry. As long as the gate of Tiancheng is not blocked, it can break through the gate." Merton said confidently.
Soon, the smoke of gunpowder dispersed. You can clearly see the broken gate of the east gate and the dead gate blocked behind the gate from the telescope.
"The field city really blocked the gate!" Morton said with a heavy face.
Soon, the news of the other three gates came, and all the gates were broken, but all the gates were sealed.
"Tian Cheng is so determined!" Morton said with an embarrassed face. Tian Cheng blocked the four gates, completely destroying Tang Jun's plan to capture Tian Cheng at one fell swoop.
"This is what Marquis Mo said. One blow will break it!" Xin liao'er and other generals came in a hurry and asked Merton.
Merton reluctantly said: "before the attack, Mo said that as long as one city gate was not sealed, the city could be broken, but who could have thought that the resistance heart of Tiancheng was so broken that it directly sealed all the four city gates."
Hou Junji waved his big hand and said, "don't say more nonsense. I'll just say a word. Is there a way for the firearms prison to break the field city?"
Merton nodded solemnly and said, "there's another move, but it takes five days to succeed."
"Don't talk big this time." Xin liao'er sneered.
Merton proudly said, "this time, Mo can make a military order. Let alone Tiancheng, Gaochang city is vulnerable to this move."
"Military order!" the generals nodded slightly. Merton could guarantee that he would not talk falsely. In fact, Merton didn't say anything just now. They saw the power of gunpowder with their own eyes. The city gate was like paper paste under the power of gunpowder. If Tiancheng hadn't blocked the gate, they would have invaded Tiancheng now.
"Five days is no good! If a small field city can block 100000 troops for five days, it's not a joke. If we want to frighten Gaochang, we must break through the city as soon as possible and disintegrate Gaochang's resistance determination." Hou Junji flatly refused.
The generals nodded one after another. If a field city could block the Tang army for five days, whatever the reason, it would greatly increase Gaochang's determination to resist, not to mention the West Turks. At that time, the Tang army would pay a greater price.
"All the troops listen to the order. From now on, they will attack Tiancheng with all their strength, and the catapults will replace all the stones with gunpowder. This time, I will attack Tiancheng with one fell swoop." Hou Junji said decisively, but he saw the damage of gunpowder to the weapons guarding the city with his own eyes. The firearms supervision team attacked the east gate and was hardly attacked by the weapons guarding the city. Once the weapons guarding the city failed, Isn't it easy for the Tang army to break Tiantian city? Why wait another five days.
"Yes!"
The generals took orders one after another. This time, even Merton did not hesitate to take out the gunpowder of dozens of carriages. Hou Junji was the main general. He represented the will of the western expedition army. The point of his sword was the direction of the attack of the Tang soldiers.
