Chapter 1092

On the Gaochang city wall, all Gaochang defenders are staring at the Tang army under the city. After the battle between Gaochang and the Tang army forward, all Gaochang soldiers realize that they really can't beat the Tang Dynasty in actual combat. Now the only thing that can protect them is the Gaochang city wall under their feet. Only hiding behind the city wall can bring them a sense of security.

Suddenly, a huge hot-air balloon quietly rose from under the city wall, and it rose higher and higher, and soon surpassed Gaochang city. You know, the whole Gaochang city is about five feet high. This thing is even comparable to Gaochang City, and Gaochang city still has a rising trend.

"Come on! Shoot it down!" although the guard general didn't know what it was, he could clearly see that there was a hanging basket under the circular monster. There was even a Tang army under the hanging basket. He immediately realized that it must be a new weapon of the Tang army and ordered to shoot immediately.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!" the defense weapons arranged by Gaochang at the cost of a lot of money played their power, and crossbows and arrows flew disorderly for a moment.

However, the hot-air balloon is quite far away from Gaochang city. Outside the attack range of Gaochang City, and it is getting higher and higher, even the most powerful crossbow in Gaochang city can't hurt it at all.

Finally, the hot-air balloon gets higher and higher. Finally, it directly reaches more than ten feet, more than twice that of Gaochang city. Even standing in Gaochang City, you can clearly see the hot-air balloon taking off.

Seeing an unknown object floating outside Gaochang City, the whole Gaochang city was in panic, all kinds of speculation and rumors were everywhere.

"It's shaped like a ball and can fly into the air. I'm afraid it's the hot-air balloon widely spread in Chang'an city. Send an order to the people of Gaochang so that they don't have to panic!" the change of Tang Jun naturally spread to Qu Zhisheng's ears for the first time. When he came as fast as he could, he looked at the hot-air balloon rising outside the city and waved an order.

Hot air balloons are making a lot of noise in Chang'an City, which is related to mojiazi. Naturally, Gaochang has also received relevant information.

"Why did the Tang army raise hot air balloons outside the city? What's the meaning?" a Gaochang official frowned.

"In the end, the Tang army must want to monitor our army," a general guessed.

Qu Zhisheng suddenly changed his face and exclaimed, "no, I'm in danger of guarding the city in Gaochang."

Sure enough, as soon as Qu Zhisheng's voice fell, a series of roars came. Tang Jun attacked Gaochang city tower with stone catapults. These stone catapults opened their eyes and specifically aimed at the city defense weapons on the city tower. Soon, the sawdust on the city tower flew around, and all the city defense machinery were destroyed.

"Fifty steps west of the tower, there are three strong crossbows!"

"Thirty steps to the East, there is a golden juice pot rack."

Xue Rengui looked up and saw the flag waving under the hot-air balloon basket. He shouted to the Tang army's stone throwing machine to tell the Gaochang Garrison's garrison equipment.

Soon, more than a dozen catapults were launched together, and three strong crossbows on the wall of Gaochang city were hit at the same time. They were immediately torn apart and could no longer recover, and the boiled gold juice was destroyed and scattered on the ground.

"Hit the target and move 70 steps to the West." Xue Rengui said loudly after receiving the confirmation of the flag. Soon, two four-wheel carriages carrying heavy objects pulled the hot-air balloon slowly to the west, and so did a group of stone catapults. He began to destroy the defense equipment of Gaochang city one by one along the Gaochang city wall.

"Hot air balloon! Semaphore!"

Hou Junji couldn't help praising the function of the hot-air balloon, especially the appearance of the flag language, which made the power of the hot-air balloon all the more obvious.

In fact, among the siege weapons of the Tang army, there are not no siege weapons comparable to hot-air balloons. The weapons nest car to be made as a supervisor is also ten feet tall, enough to see the whole picture of Gaochang city.

However, compared with the hot-air balloon, the nest car has fatal defects. First, the production of the nest car is slow and takes half a month to succeed. Where is the hot-air balloon so fast and convenient? For half an hour, the nest car is too bulky. Once the production is completed, it can not move at all, while the hot-air balloon can move easily and cooperate, which is enough to destroy most of the city guarding weapons on the wall of Gaochang city.

For a whole day, the roar of the catapult continued on the whole Gaochang city wall. Almost the immovable defensive weapons of the whole Gaochang city were destroyed, and all the remaining defensive weapons were hidden under the city.

As night fell, the whole Tang army camp cheered, while Gaochang city was silent.

"How is our army damaged?" in Gaochang palace, Qu Zhisheng asked a Gaochang general with a gloomy face.

The general hardened his head and said, "back to your majesty, there are not many casualties among our soldiers, but most of the city guarding weapons arranged by our army can not be moved and have been destroyed by the stone throwing machine of the Tang army."

Qu Zhisheng's face was embarrassed. Gaochang's troops were weak. He was already unable to cope with the 100000 Tang troops. Now he still had the confidence to resist. It was in Gaochang city with strong defense,

Now, all the defensive weapons of Gaochang city have been destroyed. Without these defensive equipment, Gaochang city's defensive ability has been weakened again, and the odds of winning this war are inclined to Datang again.

"Don't worry, king. Now the people of Gaochang are united and share a common hatred. Even if they lose their weapons to defend the city, they can resist the Tang Dynasty." a general said confidently.

Qu Zhisheng was a little relieved and summoned up the courage to fight against Datang, but the panic in his heart still lingered, and he fell asleep hazily until midnight.

"Ah!"

Qu Zhisheng felt that in his sleep, the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang suddenly turned into an eye and stared at him, which suddenly woke him up.

However, in his sleep, the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang suddenly turned into the sky. There was an eye staring at him, which made him suddenly creepy and jump up.

"King!"

The attendant on one side hurried forward to dress Qu Zhisheng. Qu Zhisheng walked to the high platform and looked at the hot-air balloon outside Gaochang city with worry. This hot-air balloon was the eyes of Tang Jun, who had been monitoring Gaochang city.

Suddenly, Qu Zhisheng frowned. Suddenly, he found that the fire in the air was getting closer and closer. Just when he was wondering, an explosion came from the city. Then there was an explosion in the north of the city. Taking advantage of the wind, it soon spread into a fire, and even the night in Gaochang city turned red.

"Come on, go and check. What's going on?" Qu Zhisheng said angrily.

However, before he got a report, he saw that the fire of the hot-air balloon had come into the air of Gaochang palace.

"Be careful, your majesty!" with the startled voice of an attendant, a hall in front of Qu Zhisheng was immediately concentrated by gunpowder, causing a raging fire.

Then several explosions exploded over the Gaochang palace, and the whole Gaochang palace was in a panic. It was not until dawn that the fire in the whole Gaochang city could be put out.
