Two days later, Ren Baqian returned to Dayao with the box again, just after noon.
Ren Baqian put the box away carefully, and then strolled to the hall of the city magistrate's mansion, where a group of people hurried in and out.
The empress sat on her head and wandered into the sky, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Your Majesty, what's the situation?" Ren Baqian walked to him and asked.
When the Empress heard the voice, her eyes finally focused. She first turned her eyes around his face, reached out to take the bag he was carrying, rummaged through it, and put it at her feet.
Only after that did he speak: "Big Xia attacked all night last night. In the past two days, Da Xia lost at least 30,000 people, and there were 1,500 casualties in the city. Now the flying cavalry left in the city are defending on the city wall."
This is the biggest shortcoming of the Shigu Clan. Even though they are strong, their numbers are too small. Five or six thousand people have to defend the city walls in three directions, and remove the small number of guards on the southern city wall. In fact, there are less than 2,000 people in each direction, and they are enduring the continuous attacks of Daxia.
Casualties gradually increased, and the pressure on the remaining soldiers was also increasing.
This was expected. Daxia adopted a strong attack method, and both sides suffered great losses.
Now let's see who can stand it.
Ren Baqian thought for a while, Da Xia should not be able to endure it.
If you can endure yourself, you must also make them unable to endure it.
Ren Baqian stayed with the Empress in the hall until it was time to light up the lights, but Daxia still had no intention of withdrawing troops. In Daxia, it is now obvious that these hundreds of thousands of troops took turns to attack day and night, until the thousands of ancient soldiers in Liaocheng couldn't hold on.
After dinner, Ren Baqian first walked around the city accompanied by his guards. As soon as he got up, he was choked by the smell of blood from above, and the sounds of shouting and killing from all around were directly poured into his head.
Ren Baqian saw seven or eight huge ladders being pushed to the side of the city wall. The ladders were like a building that could move. Just jump over and hack, there are countless soldiers behind the ladder climbing up the ladder without stopping.
"Kill!" Dozens of Daxia soldiers who jumped over roared, their faces full of ferociousness.
Most of them just yelled the word "kill" before they got a firm foothold and were cut down and fell to the bottom of the city wall. Only a few of them were more powerful because of the ancient warrior Zhou Xuan.
A flying cavalry appeared from the side, with a long knife in his hand, cutting quickly and fiercely, he chopped down several Daxia soldiers in two or three strokes, and then swung the long knife to knock down several arrows that were aimed at him.
And a group of Daxia soldiers jumped on the cloud car.
At this time, the city wall was filled with torches from the beginning to the end, and the lights within tens of meters below the city wall were brightly lit. Below the entire city wall were corpses, damaged ordnance, and the Xia army swarming up in darkness.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and a ball of flames erupted directly under a ladder in the distance, and the ladder was directly blown up, and the Daxia soldiers on it also screamed and fell down.
Don't think about it, this is explosives. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to destroy such a huge ladder.
But now a direct explosive tube can easily solve it.
Then there were several explosions, and after all the ladders within Ren Baqian's sight were destroyed, many ancient soldiers could breathe a sigh of relief.
"Master Ren!" You Feiqi wiped the blood from his face, punched Ren Baqian, and sat by the wall to rest.
"Does the Great Xia Army still have any ordnance?" Ren Baqian asked.
It is not easy for the other party to make such a big ladder, right
"I hope not!" the flying knight muttered.
It has been fighting for eighteen hours since yesterday morning, and even with the strength of the earth wheel, I feel tired.
But imagination is always good. Not long after, the soldiers of Daxia rushed up again.
This time it wasn't the exhausted Great Xia army just now, but the elite soldiers who had fully rested and recharged their batteries for five hours rushed up again carrying ladders like ladders.
"Master!" Ren Baqian cursed, and this time he brought a lot of anti-infantry soldiers to jump mines and prepare to bury them outside the city, but if the other party didn't withdraw their troops, how could he bury them? You can't bury it on the city wall, can you
After walking around the three city walls, Ren Baqian hurried back to the City Commander's Mansion, pulled out his Italian cannon, and went directly to the bottom of the city wall.
If the opponent does not withdraw their troops, he will blow them up until they withdraw their troops.
When I came back this time, I brought a total of forty mortar shells, which were still steel ball incendiary bombs, and fifty Type 72 anti-infantry jump mines. There were a total of 650 killing fragments in this thing. When it exploded at a height of about 100 meters, the lethality may be greater than that of mortar shells.
I went up to the city wall to take a look, and I couldn't see clearly the darkness in the distance, but I kept in mind where there were more and less people in the visible areas below the city, and then I quickly ran down to adjust the angle of the mortar.
After a while, there was a "bang", smoke came out of the mortar mouth, and a few tens of seconds later, a burst of flames erupted outside the city, and even the surrounding Daxia army was wiped out, and the two ladders were directly destroyed.
"Oye!" Ren Baqian's voice couldn't hear much happiness, but it was flat.
"Master Ren made the move!" The soldiers of the ancient tribe cheered. Looking at this posture, he knew that Ren Baqian made the move himself, and no one else could use this thing except him. And those clarinet explosions are not as lethal as this one.
Adjust the muzzle and fire again.
"boom!"
The cheers on the walls were louder.
"Master Ren, I want to give birth to a monkey for you...!" Such a voice came with the wind.
Ren Baqian's face twitched immediately, which bastard yelled that? I beat you to death, believe it or not
When the third shell was fired, Ren Baqian continued to adjust the angle.
When the cannon was fired, there were cheers on the city wall, but the sound stopped suddenly after tens of seconds.
"Dud?" Ren Baqian thought of this, stuffed the shell into the barrel and fired again.
"boom!"
Then adjust the angle and fire again.
This time there was still no explosion.
Now Ren Baqian immediately realized that something was wrong. If there was a problem with one shell, it would be understandable. But both shells have problems, this is not a matter of probability.
"Master Ren, that thing of yours was shot at the wall!" A flying knight ran down from the city wall and shouted hastily.
Ren Baqian: How do you speak
He also knew that now was not the time to stare. As soon as he heard this, he knew what was going on, and quickly got up and ran towards the city wall.
"where?"
"Master Ren, come with me." The flying cavalry led Ren Baqian to run along the city wall, avoiding the swords coming from the side from time to time.
Ren Baqian twisted left and right and pierced through the shadow of swords and swords. He leaned on the wall where the flying cavalry stopped and looked down. He saw a deeply forgiving cannonball being pierced by a long arrow and nailed to the city wall. On it, it was still swaying in the wind, like a clock hand.
"So cruel?" Although Ren Baqian had already guessed it, he was still a little surprised to see this scene.
This is a cannonball! Hundreds of meters per second!
And it's still night!
Where did the master come from
"My lord, be careful!" Shi Hu pushed Ren Baqian somersault, and a long arrow rubbed against Ren Baqian's shoulder and disappeared with the sound of piercing.
"Do you know where he is? I'll blow him up!" Ren Baqian lay on the ground, sweating on his brow, and then went into a rage.
"Bring me my binoculars, night vision goggles, and big guns!"
