In fact, the siege of the Shu army was very difficult, when it was in Jinzhong, the Shu army had already thrown away most of the bulky equipment, such as siege vehicles, rushing vehicles, catapults, etc., and the party needed to travel lightly, these heavy equipment was too much to drag the back of the army, and the Shu army had to choose to give up. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But without these large-scale siege equipment, you can only use simple ladders and rope hooks and other tools, using the way of ant-attached siege, even if it is a small county town, it is more difficult for the Shu army, not to mention that the defense of the Shu army is more tenacious, and the Shu army has paid a lot of casualties from the beginning of the attack.

At this time, Ah Jian rushed up with the troops with firearms, and seeing that the siege troops were quite struggling, Ah Jian immediately arranged a plan for the siege of the city with firearms.

It takes a lot of gunpowder to collapse the city wall, even if the city wall of Nixian County is far from Chang'an City, but what is needed is an astonishing number, and it costs so much gunpowder to fight a county town, which is completely worth the loss. What's more, if you want to collapse the city wall, you must at least prepare in advance, and it will take a day or two just to dig the tunnel, and it will be too late in time.

The method adopted by Ah Resolute was to use the Yuanrong crossbow to carry out a suppressive attack on the defenders of the city, arrange for the assault team to climb the ladder, and use bamboo grenades to blast out a way to seize the city. As long as the assault team can completely break through at any point on the city wall, the follow-up Shu army can continue to attack the city through this gap, and the Shu army occupies an absolute advantage in strength, once the city wall defense line of the Qian people is broken, the next battle will no longer be difficult to fight.

In order to cooperate with the actions of the assault team, Gao Yuan ordered the Hubu battalion to launch a full-scale offensive to contain the forces of the defenders.

The assault team had prepared dozens of bamboo grenades, and the Yuanrong crossbow team that had carried out a suppressive attack on the enemy was also in place.

The Yuan Rong crossbow team of 100 people lined up in three rows, thirty-three people in each row, one shot of ten arrows, and the crossbow arrows that shot at the head of the city at the same time reached three hundred and thirty, such a dense crossbow arrow, in an instant, the city head was completely covered, and the soldiers who showed their heads a little were shot through the denomination, and the soldiers on this section of the city wall were pressed so that they couldn't even lift their heads.

After the first row finished shooting, the second row immediately went up to form a seamless connection, and after the third row finished shooting, the first row had already changed the crossbow arrows and put them into shooting again.

In a very short period of time, the Shu army had already thrown thousands of crossbow arrows at the head of the city of Nie County, and the arrows were concentrated in an area only about three zhang wide, which was almost a devastating blow, and the soldiers could only shrink behind the battlements, not daring to show their heads even for a moment.

At this time, the assault had already launched an attack on the city wall, due to the suppressive attack of the Yuan Rong crossbow team, their climbing action was subject to the least resistance, almost none of the soldiers dared to come forward to put an arrow or smash a stone, as for the flank soldiers, they were suffering from the continuous strong attack of the Shu army, and they were flawless, so they had time to help this section.

The assault team successfully climbed to a place only three or five feet away from the city, they were not in a hurry to climb the city, if they landed in the city at this moment, the Yuan Rong crossbow team as cover would have to stop shooting, otherwise they would hurt their own people, and once they lost their covering effect, the assault team would be attacked by the crazy counterattack of the soldiers.

At a distance of more than three zhang wide, the commandos set up a total of six or seven ladders, and the commandos marched in unison, all climbed to a position three or five feet away from the head of the city, and then they took out the bamboo grenades very tacitly, and after igniting them together, they came to a hook and threw them at the same time, and six or seven bamboo grenades drew an arc in the air and flew towards the city.

The soldiers had never seen a grenade, and they were very curious to see the half of the bamboo tube suddenly thrown by the Shu army, and there was a wisp of light smoke at the end of the tail, and the bamboo grenade rolled down to their feet, all of them were at a loss, and some people tried to pick up those bamboo tubes.

But a violent explosion sounded at the head of the city, and where the smoke of gunpowder filled, the stumps flew together, the flesh and blood were blurred, and the screams came and went.

No matter how dense the rain of arrows is, it can withstand the protection of the city wall and shield, but the grenade is different, once it explodes, within its effective killing radius, it is almost defenseless, and the soldiers were blown up and suffered heavy casualties.

After two or three rounds of throwing in a row, there was hardly anything left on this section of the city wall to breathe, and the assault team took advantage of the situation to launch a final assault on the city, and a distance of three or five feet, that is, in one fell swoop, climbed the city wall in the blink of an eye.

The Yuanrong crossbow team, which was covering with arrows underneath, did not stop firing, but spread the target to both ends and intercepted the soldiers who were trying to reinforce this side.

That round of bombing really stunned the Qianren, and when they reacted, the Shu army had broken through the city defense of Niexian County and attacked the city.

As soon as he saw that this section was lost, Hu Chao immediately organized the soldiers to counterattack and try to defeat the Shu army again.

The first batch of assault teams attacking the city are the elite of Liu Yin's personal army, all of them are extraordinary, although they are at a disadvantage in numbers, they can all block ten with one, and they are in one place with the soldiers at the head of the city, and they are difficult to solve.

In fact, what the Shu army wants is this result, as long as the assault team can delay the work of the soldiers for a while, a large number of Shu troops can rush to the city through the open gap.

The Shu army rushed to the city like a tide, and the Shu soldiers immediately joined the battle group after boarding the city, and the whole battle situation was quickly reversed.

Because Liu Yin issued an order to kill, the soldiers of the Shu army hated the brutality of the Qi people even more, so the Shu soldiers were very ruthless, regardless of whether the Qi soldiers were still resisting or had given up resistance and were ready to surrender, they were all killed mercilessly, and did not give the Qian people any chance at all.

The city gate was also breached, and the cavalry of the Shu army entered the city in a vast way, and carried out the final sweep of the people who were in the city, and the streets of the entire Nie County were full of corpses of the people, and the blood flowed like a river, and the corpses were piled up like a mountain.

And from Liu Yin's combat order to the capture of Nirvana, the time was not long or short, exactly one hour. (To be continued.) )
