The sound of cannons outside the city instantly resounded inside and outside the capital.

The guards on the city wall subconsciously shrank at the position of the battlement, there were 200 cannons on the city wall, and the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Patrol Division naturally understood the power of artillery.

As soon as the cannon sounded, instinct made them want to shrink back and avoid the shells.

However, what the Praetorian Guards did not expect was that the fifty cannons under the city walls were not bombarding the defenders above the city walls, but bombarding the city gate holes and the frost hanging on the walls.

After a little thought, Lu Tao understood the rebels' intentions.

One is to blow open the city gates with cannonballs, and the other is to blow up the ice above the city walls.

"Open the cannon, it doesn't matter if the barrel is scrapped, be sure to bombard the rebels' artillery."

After a round of test firing, the artillery on the wall immediately adjusted its angle to aim at the artillery that the rebels had placed.

Fifty guns on both sides immediately began to fire at each other.

The artillery on the rebel position was blown away several times in an instant, and the artillery on the side naturally inevitably died tragically.

However, the condition of the city gates is also not optimistic.

With the cannonballs of cannonballs, the bricks sealed in the hole in the city gate, and the rocks sprinted down and there was a scene of loosening.

Jiangzhou, who was supervising the battle, Lu Gui and the others looked at the situation in the city gate cave with excited faces.

"Boom to death, don't care if the artillery is scrapped, as long as you attack the capital, the city walls are better than us, and the artillery that is more powerful than us is ours."

"Not only artillery, but also glory and wealth."

As the herald passed Jiangzhou's order to the artillery, the rebels opened fire more quickly, not caring at all about the red barrels of the artillery.

As Jiang Zhou said, there are better ones waiting for it if it is broken.

The masonry in the cave of the city gate collapsed in half of it in an instant under the fierce artillery fire, and every shell was really a burst of smoke.

The ice above the walls also crumbled into the moat below the city under the bombardment of cannonballs.

The attack on the city gate went so smoothly that both of them sighed a little, marveling at the power of the artillery.

No wonder Liu Mingzhi, the Duke of Dingguo, went out to conquer the Western Regions, and in just two years, he laid down such a territory for Dalong, with this kind of siege weapon in hand, what kind of city can withstand the footsteps of the main western expeditionary army.

However, the two looked at the artillery positions, the barrels that blew up from time to time, and the corpses of the rebels, and they were also a little anxious.

The artillery duel was not unmistakable, especially in order to break the city, their own side did not return fire on the city wall, and the artillery fire on their side has lost more than 20 artillery pieces in a short period of time under the fierce artillery fire on the city wall.

Jiang Zhou glanced at it, there was no ice block, and the order flag in the hand of the city wall waved suddenly.

"Ordered the three armies to begin the siege, and the trebuchet stepped forward to suppress the speed at which the defenders on the city wall opened fire."

With Jiang Zhou's order, the rebels who had been preparing for a long time began to attack the capital again in the sound of cannons like thunder.

"General, the rebels' army is within the range of artillery, do you want to split several artillery guns to bombard the rebels?"

Lu Tao frowned deeply and looked at the rebels who were attacking with infantry and artillery, and shook his head resolutely.

"No matter what, the muzzle of the artillery is bombarded with all its might, those are the things that pose the greatest threat to us, blow them up, blow them all up."

"Order!"

Looking at the rebels who were already approaching the city, Lu Tao waved the command flag with two purposes.

"Don't stop the artillery, the archers release their arrows."

The rebels charged under the walls again under the cover of sword and shield soldiers in the face of a dense rain of arrows.

Ladders began to cling to the city walls, and the ice-free walls smoothly supported the rebels' ladders, even if the barbs were cut off, there was no big problem.

"Chong, capture the faint king alive, and seal the marquis of ten thousand households."

With the cheering voice of the captain, the rebels waved the newly red-eyed thunderstone rolling wood and climbed up to the city wall.

Turning a blind eye to the wounded and killed comrades, they rushed forward one after another.

One by one, the rebels were stabbed by the pikemen on the city walls.

However, the disparity in strength was so great that as the first rebel climbed the wall, one after another rebels followed suit.

Lu Tao drew his horizontal knife, killed the two rebels, protected the artillery brothers, and continued to bombard the rebels' artillery.

All of a sudden, two waves of armies with distinct armor on the city wall launched a fierce fight.

"General, there are also rebels attacking the city wall at the West City Gate, we can't resist it."

"If you can't resist it, you have to be low, our wives and children are in the city, so we must not retreat if we fight to the last person."

"The city is in the people, and the city is ruined."

"With the order, the city is in the people, and the city is ruined."

As Lu Tao's order was issued, thousands of gray-robed people dressed in gray robes and hats rushed up from behind the stairs of the city wall and joined the battlefield.

These black-robed figures are nimble, sharp, and use a variety of blades.

A sword, a sword, a gun, to say the least, would kill one or two rebels.

With them on board, the pressure on the Praetorian Guard eased suddenly.

"Brethren, reinforcements are coming."

With Lu Tao's shouting, the morale of the Praetorian Guards suddenly increased a lot, and it was inseparable from the rebels.

A middle-aged man in his thirties and forties among the gray-robed men, after killing two rebels, jumped up and jumped in front of an old man in his early sixties with a spear in his hand.

As soon as they stopped in front of him, the spear in the old man's hand was retracted, and the two rebels fell to the ground weakly with blood gushing from their chests.

"Great Elder, can you use internal force depending on the situation, it's too much of a loss!"

The old man shook his head with a serious face.

"No, it's too easy to injure the Praetorian Guards by mistake."

"Now it's a scuffle, and I can't contain my strength at all."

"Yes!"

"Be careful!"

The old man suddenly pulled the middle-aged man, and with a spear in his hand, he directly passed a man in black.

In an instant, countless black-clothed people flew lightly along the ladder to the city wall and slaughtered the gray-robed people.

The identity of the man in black is clear without words, a martial arts master recruited by Li Yunlong's brothers.

With the addition of the man in black, the pressure on the Praetorian Guard, who had just been a little relieved, suddenly increased again.

The fighting on the walls became more and more sound.

At this moment, thousands of rebels under the city walls who were about to enter the city suddenly turned around and rushed towards the rebels' artillery positions.

Seeing this, tens of thousands of rebels were a little overwhelmed, and looked at the captain on the side and didn't know what to do.

Jiang Zhou, Lu Gui and the two of them were shocked when they saw this.

"It's not good, someone has defected, and nine times out of ten it is King Jing's people."

"I'll go and report to the prince, you have ordered five hundred guards to go and block the attack, and you must not let them destroy the artillery."

"Okay, you go."

After Jiangzhou left, Lu Gui drew his sword and waved: "Brothers, come with me to protect the artillery position." ”

Seeing this, the lookout on the city wall hurriedly informed Lu Tao, who was fighting.

"General, there are rebels who are fighting back!"

Lu Gui took the opportunity to glance at the soldiers and horses that rushed towards the rebel artillery position, and remembered Li Baiyu's words, and his face was happy.

"Order, turn the muzzle of the gun to help, don't hurt your own brother!"
