Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1085

[Chapter 1085 Swiftness]

Swiftness “Boom boom boom…” The sound of cannons

rumbled like spring thunder.

After the first day of shelling, the shelling of Ebony City continued for three more days.

During these three days, the other soldiers of the Central Army did not sit idle, but took off the engineering shovel they carried with them and dug the trench all the way to the Ebony City.

There were also some Lancers who went to a small forest thirty miles away to cut down trees, tied ropes and dragged them back with horses to make ladders.

Early in the morning on the fourth day, the shelling ceased.

For Chang Wei, these three days of shelling were enough to deal a heavy blow to the morale of the Tusman cavalry.

Under the continuous casualties of the shelling, the morale of the Tusman soldiers must be low at present, and there is no need to continue wasting shells.

After all, it is easy to get food now, but the ammunition must be transported from the same pass. . .

This will consume a lot of manpower and material resources.

On the whole, they did not earn or lose by playing Beidi.

Because they not only got the cattle and sheep of Beidi people, but also got the wealth of Beidi from Hanting.

As for the fight against Tusman this time, it was really a war of pure loss, and the loss was quite heavy.

This is also the reason why he asked for a quick decision to achieve the strategic goal as soon as possible.

It’s just that even if they lose money, they are willing to do so.

After all, regaining the homeland should not be too fussy.

Furthermore, when they regained the Tianshan Mountains and went to fight the Tusman Empire, the war at that time would be profitable again.

According to Emperor Zhao Xu, as long as the Tusman Empire is defeated and the order of Middle Earth is controlled, Da Song will control the switch of the wealth of the next world.

The switch is oil.

He still doesn’t quite understand this concept.

It’s just to be clear that this thing will be very important to the Great Song after the industrial upgrade.

But how important it is, he still has a half-knowledge.

However, since the emperor’s decision, he thought it must be right.

In terms of foresight, no one has surpassed this emperor so far.

“Are you ready?” The shelling stopped, and the charge to Ebony City was about to be launched next.

At this time Chang Wei asked Bai Shang, Lu Chang and Huo An.

“Ready!” The three responded in unison.

Chang Wei nodded, took out his pocket watch and checked the time, “Launch an attack immediately!” The

three of them turned and left in response.

Not long after, the trumpeter in the army blew the charge.

“Beep…beep…beep…” The

clear voice of the charge spread across the battlefield.

Soldiers of the Central Army entered the trench one after another, and the grenadier team came to the front of the trench with baskets of grenades.

There are also soldiers carrying ladders in the trenches.

Seeing that the Dasong army launched an attack, the Tusman soldiers at the top of the city immediately bombarded with the participating artillery.

It’s just that the sporadic solid bullets fired by their artillery did not pose much threat to the Dasong soldiers in the trench, but instead exposed their position.

The artillery of the Central Army immediately locked the position of these artillery, and they immediately bombarded the position of the opponent’s artillery with rifled guns.

The Tusman’s artillery suddenly misfired during the shelling.

At this time, all the grenadiers rushing to the front ditch arrived at the predetermined position.

At this moment, they were only about thirty meters away from the city wall.

Everyone took the grenade, and after receiving the general’s order, they threw the grenade one by one onto the city wall.

“Boom boom boom…” The

grenade exploded on the city wall, and a line of fire rose on the city wall.

According to experience on the battlefield, whenever they stopped bombarding, the enemy always took the opportunity to replenish the city wall with troops to deal with the coming charge.

That’s why they cleared the walls with grenades before charging.

After all, the error of the artillery is too large.

Let the artillery bombard the city wall at this time, it is easy to blow up their own people.

“Follow me!” After the grenade exploded, the soldiers of the Central Army immediately crawled out of the trench.

Under the leadership of the general, they climbed up the wall of Ebony City with the ladder on their shoulders.

Although the soldiers of the Central Army are responsible for guarding the imperial city and no longer fight with the enemy on the frontier all year round like other armies, their usual training has not been abandoned.

The soldiers moved nimbly, and in just over ten seconds, the first soldier climbed onto the city wall.

The soldiers behind followed closely behind and climbed onto the city wall one after another.

At this time, there were only a few remnants of Tusman soldiers left on the city wall, and the Tusman soldiers below the city had not had time to replenish them.

The soldiers of the Central Army immediately raised their Qin-style rifles and pulled the trigger on the Tusman soldiers who were rushing towards them.

“Bang bang bang…” After a burst of clear gunshots, the city wall suddenly fell silent.

The Tusman soldiers under the city wall were all dumbfounded when they looked at the Dasong soldiers who suddenly appeared on the city wall.

They had never seen such a way of fighting, and they couldn’t keep up with the rhythm of Da Song’s army.

It was as if they ran faster than anyone else, but they ran to the end in an instant on horseback, which made people feel desperate.

It’s just that the soldiers of the Central Army obviously don’t intend to accompany them in a daze.

Immediately, they shot wildly at the Tusman soldiers below the city, and the dense gunfire sounded suddenly.

Some soldiers threw grenades among the Tusman soldiers.

Under the cover of these soldiers, groups of soldiers rushed down the steps.

They are going to control the city gate, let more soldiers enter the city, and end this siege battle as soon as possible.
