As for what's next.The soldiers of the Qi army outside did not know.they know.They are about to attack.only.Need to wait for a signal now.
Then the ground trembled.There was a huge explosion.
895 Breaking the City
".War is the soldiers' business, that's their duty." Shang Wen is persuading Ying Yu, who threatened to slaughter several Qi people with his own hands. Ying Yu is a typical Qin. It's a military matter, Ying Yu is a little too much because it's not safe
"I..." Just when Ying Yu wanted to defend herself
There was a huge explosion sound of "Boom", the two were so shaken that they couldn't stand, and they hugged each other and lay on the ground.
On the other side, Li Zuoche, who was checking the map, was also shocked by the sudden loud explosion.
Although the soldiers of the Qi army outside the city knew that they were going to launch an attack early on, they still felt the shocking force of the explosion at the moment of the explosion.
The huge explosion destroyed a large section of the entire city wall in an instant, and the dust and the people on it were instantly lifted to a height of more than ten feet. The huge dust also flew up, which made the soldiers of the Qi army feel very terrified.
"I can still remember the scene at that time clearly," recalled a veteran of the Qi Army who participated in that battle
"At the moment of the explosion, I could feel the great shock caused by the huge explosion, which made my heart beat. I don't know if it was caused by the shock wave or my heart was beating, but one thing is certain, it is that. The explosion was really astonishing, the flames produced by the explosion were more than ten feet high, and the smoke and dust were even more outrageous," recalled the veteran.
"I remember my ears were buzzing at that time, and now I can't hear well in my ears. It was the huge explosion that caused my ears to have this problem," said the veteran.
The huge explosion shocked not only the upper echelons, but many soldiers were stunned by the sudden explosion. Within two hours, the Qi army actually placed about a thousand stones of black powder in the entrance of this cave, which is equivalent to a ton of explosives in an instant. The huge explosion produced a huge explosion, together with the guarding personnel on the city wall and the surrounding civilian houses, many of them were blown down, and the soldiers in the distance were stunned by the huge explosion. Many soldiers fainted from the shock.
It wasn't just the defending Yan soldiers, Zhao Jun, Qin Jun, and Qi soldiers who fainted. They were the closest to the explosion. Their trenches were only two hundred steps away from the city wall. The huge explosion directly shocked the Qi soldiers in the front to death. The state of death is very scary
"Their eyes, nose and ears were bleeding, and their faces were pale. It was horrible. I couldn't help but shiver when I saw them. They were all killed by our own explosives. Later, I heard a person say that they carried those corpses." At that time, the stomachs of those corpses would make a gurgling sound, and some people opened their stomachs curiously, and their internal organs were all shattered. The scene of people not eating a meal for several days was really terrible," the veteran recalled. The scene at that time seemed to be still around him. This kind of situation made him feel a little bit of fear.
The huge explosion caused the Qi army's own people to suffer certain losses. The soldiers of the Qi army in the front were shocked to death, and many soldiers farther away were injured by the shock. The order to attack, and some people were directly stunned and didn't know anything. This phenomenon is not only happening to the Qi army itself, but also to the Allied forces. This may be the shell shock syndrome.
This symptom has a great shadow on the soldiers' psychology. The huge explosion makes it difficult for many people to restore their inner peace.
So under the huge explosion, the Qi army did not launch the attack according to the original plan, because the explosion was so shocking that the Qi people themselves did not expect such a large destructive force that they could not launch the attack.
"Our soldiers were unable to launch an attack. Some of them were shocked to death, some fainted, and some could not hear and could not launch an attack," a Qi army officer reported.
"Huh..." the general exhaled helplessly. This is the first time he has encountered such a situation.
"Let's wait." The general of the Qi army reluctantly issued such an order, so the Qi army entered a waiting state.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey..." Shangwen's head was dizzy, and the sudden huge explosion made his ears buzzing, and he felt dizzy
"Hey, hello" Shang Wen tried hard to pat Ying Yu Ying Yu was stunned by the sudden huge explosion, and Shang Wen saw that he couldn't wake up this crazy woman who was about to join the war just now, but now she was stunned by the explosion In the past, Shangwen had no choice but to wobble and pick up this crazy woman and put her on the bed. Such accidents always happen
"Bah, bah..." Li Zuoche also tried his best to recover from the explosion just now. The explosion just now really surprised Li Zuoche. He thought of using the technique of blasting to attack the city, but he didn't expect that the Qi army would come. It was really beyond his expectation that it was so fast, which made him very surprised, because the Qi army had mastered a new offensive method.
"Oh..." Li Zuoche's command team also recovered slowly and wobbly at this time, many of them were still in a coma, and Li Zuoche supported the case and tried to calm down his mind.
he looks at the map
"The enemy is about to launch an attack, order our people to enter their combat positions, and those on the city wall to withdraw as much as possible." Li Zuoche gave the order, but his command team was still immersed in the explosion just now.
Li Zuoche glanced back and could only give the order by himself.
Blasting and siege is a new tactic, but this tactic needs to be tried because blasting is an engineering subject with high technical requirements, and the Qi army does not yet have such a capability. It is obvious that the Qi army did not carry out such a large explosion at the beginning. After calculation, because they can't get such technical parameters, they can only rely on their own experience. They one-sidedly think that the more explosives, the better, and ignore how powerful the explosives are in an instant.
The Qi army is changing the offensive troops, and the Allied forces are also slowly entering the combat positions. The positions that were originally captured quickly after the explosion were also delayed due to the unwellness of the soldiers on both sides.
The sun is slowly showing its head. The winter morning is very cold. Soldiers from both sides entered their respective combat positions at such a temperature.
"Hurry up and get into the combat position!" a sergeant of the Zhao army shouted loudly, but his soldiers couldn't hear anything so far their ears are still buzzing
"Hurry up" Seeing the unresponsive soldiers, the sergeants could only kick their feet into their defensive positions. The soldiers were helpless because their ears were generally injured, and even their chief Li Zuoche couldn't hear. The aftermath of the huge explosion is still spreading
"Attack, we are going to launch an attack." The replaced soldiers of the Qi army entered the starting position of the battle. Their officers were calling their soldiers to enter the starting position.
They didn't hurt much because of the back plus some preparation for their ears
"Everyone is ready to bayonet" the officers of the Qi army shouted loudly
"Clatter!" The soldiers of the Qi army drew out their bayonets and installed them on their guns
"Ready" to see his own man with a bayonet on the officer was satisfied
"Bang" a clear gunshot
"Come on!" The soldiers of the Qi army shouted and rushed out of their trenches
"Kill!" The soldiers of the Qi army rushed out with bayonet-mounted rifles. Among them, the people in the front row still had the small bronze shields they used before. Shields are already obsolete in the ranks of weapons. Things can't resist bullets flying at high speed
But the soldiers of the Qi army who charged knew that although they couldn't resist those bullets head-on, they still played some role, so they still put this kind of shield on their bodies with iron wires, at least in key places. save a life
This is a spontaneous behavior of soldiers. This behavior is the earliest record of using body armor. Although it is a bit old, it can still play a certain role.
"Come on!" The soldiers of the Qi army rushed out with a loud shout
"Kill!" Soon the soldiers rushed to the edge of the city wall and followed the blown-up city wall. They entered the city. The huge explosion blasted the rammed earth structure of the city wall and made it soft. The rammed earth became as loose as cement, and all of a sudden The soldiers of the Qi army were a little uncomfortable, but soon the soldiers of the Qi army climbed up the city wall and crossed the Allied defense line.
"It's strange why I haven't heard the gunshots yet." At this time, a general of the Qi army asked, and the commanding general of the Qi army on the side was also surprised.
"Oh oh oh" Soon the soldiers of the Qi army occupied the city wall of Yandu
"Clatter!" A severed flag of Yan State was thrown down from the city tower
"Hoo!" A large banner of the Qi army was planted at the highest point of the city. In the eyes of the Qi army, this symbolized that Yandu had been occupied by them.
"Wooooooh!" Qi soldiers climbed all over the city, raised their guns and cheered loudly for victory.
"Victory!" shouted the soldiers
"Come on, let's occupy the Palace of King Yan." The soldiers of the Qi army were obviously not satisfied with such a victory, and they continued to move forward.
896 We were knocked out
The Qi army had just occupied the city wall. Although they occupied it easily, in ancient times, this kind of capture of the city wall meant that a city had already been occupied.Because the walls are occupied, the gates can be opened.
"Woooooooooooo." With the sound of the wooden gate of the city gate opening, the gate of Yandu opened.
"Come on." The soldiers of the Qi army who had been waiting outside rushed in frantically with a loud shout.To them.Entering the heart of Yan Kingdom, Yandu is the most important thing for them.And it's an honorable thing.
"Hula la la." A large group of soldiers from the Qi army swarmed into the gate of Yandu.The heart of Yan State opened its door to the Qi army, but no one expected what happened behind the door.
"Come on." The morale of the Qi army soldiers was high.With loud shouts, they marched towards the palace of Yan Kingdom.There, it's not just a symbol of Yan's power.At the same time, it is also a symbol of wealth.In the eyes of the soldiers of the Qi army, there are countless wealth and things, fine wine, all kinds of delicacies, and all kinds of fun, as long as they rush there, they can get them.
"Come on. The Palace of King Yan is in front of you. Kill." An officer of the Qi army waved the command sword in his hand and shouted loudly.The soldiers at the back were holding rifles with bayonets attached, and the soldiers at the front were waving the "Qi" flag and running on the main road of Yandu.At the end of the main road is the heart of Yan State.Yan Palace.A magnificent new palace.
Some buildings of the palace are constructed of reinforced concrete structure.The tallest building is seven stories high.Such towering buildings can be seen outside the city.On the main road.The building is clearly the commanding heights of the neighborhood.Qi Jun obviously ignored his military value, in the face of the sudden victory.They no longer have that sense of military combat.
