Chapter 364: The power of lime bombs


"Boom..."
The artillery continued to fire, and the barbarian defenders at the head of the city could only be passively beaten under the suppression of the artillery. Eight? One Chinese Network?? ≥=≥≥≤≤≤≈≈≥≠
In just a short time, the city wall was devastated by the artillery shells of the Qingzhou Army.
Many barbarian soldiers were hit directly by the shells, horrifying death, and this exacerbated the fear of the barbarian defenders.
It's just that this is just an appetizer. At this time, the catapult began to project the burning powder cans toward the barbarians on the wall.
Suddenly, the city was covered by a violent explosion, and the barbarian soldiers suffered heavy losses amid the screams.
On the city wall, Gu Duo fell into despair looking at everything in front of him.
At that time, after Bei Shan was accidentally injured by the Qingzhou Army’s artillery, Chagatai immediately ordered the tribe to retreat.
With heavy losses, they knew that they were unable to fight the Qingzhou Army anymore, so their tribe directly withdrew from Shanhaiguan.
Because once the Qingzhou Army attacked Shanhaiguan, they would be locked in by the Qingzhou Army, and the only fate they faced was death.
Therefore, under consideration, Chagatai did not hesitate to order the tribe to withdraw from Youzhou and other places.
In order to prevent the Qingzhou Army from attacking Shanhaiguan, he was left to defend the city, but the worst situation still occurred. Chagatai sent Beishan away, and the Qingzhou Army arrived under the city.
Without artillery, there is no gunpowder canister of the Qingzhou Army, they have no way to resist the indiscriminate bombing of the Qingzhou Army, and they have suffered heavy losses in a short time.
The most important thing is that the life and death of Bei Shan is uncertain, and the entire tribe is panicked and morale is low.
Because they don't know what they will face next.
"Boom..."
The shelling continued, and the throwing of gunpowder cans also continued. This time, the Qingzhou Army used gunpowder to bury the soldiers of the barbarians.
Niu Ben observed the situation on the wall. A wave of soldiers died, and another wave of soldiers added. There were too many barbarian soldiers.
He thought for a moment, and gestured to the following.
At this time, the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army carried ten gunpowder kegs from the camp.
The city wall of Shanhaiguan Military Town is not very thick, far inferior to the original Cangzhou city wall.
The quickest solution to the defenders in the city is to blow up the walls and expose the soldiers in the city to their firepower.
"Where is the lime bomb?" Luo Xin also shouted at this time.
Barbarian archers and infantry can still threaten the Qingzhou soldiers under the wall. It is not easy to bury these ten powder kegs under the wall.
So Luo Xin thought of the lime bomb of the Cangzhou Army.
Soldiers of the Cangzhou Army immediately came over with a box of shells. Luo Xin was stunned when he saw these lime shells. He said, "Isn't this a gunpowder can?"
The soldier nodded, "The people in the military workshop said, this lime bomb was thrown by a trebuchet."
Luo Xin was speechless for a while. He thought that lime bombs were similar to solid bombs. He didn't expect it to be gunpowder cans.
After 6 passes and Chen Qi studied, they found that only powder cans can maximize the effect of lime bombs. In the end, they chose to make the first batch of lime bombs into powder cans. In fact, in general, the power of lime bombs is needed. It has to be a flower bomb.
At this time, the gunpowder is down and the quicklime is on the top. Once the gunpowder canister explodes, the quicklime will be scattered in the air like fireworks.
Carrying the lime bomb to the catapult, the soldier handed the gunpowder can to the soldier who operated the catapult.
Putting the lime bomb in the handle of the trebuchet spoon, a soldier estimated and cut a length of the match rope, and then he lit the match rope on the powder can.
In an instant, the catapult threw the gunpowder can to the top of the city.
"Boom..." The gunpowder can suddenly exploded the moment it reached the city.
The white smoke covered the city’s head and spread out to a range of 20 to 30 meters.
After long-term use, soldiers can basically judge the explosion time of the gunpowder can by the length of the match rope. Because of this, the soldiers of the catapult trimmed it a bit and let the gunpowder can explode on the wall.
"So amazing." Luo Xin was taken aback.
Thick smoke enveloped the city and couldn't see the barbarian soldiers inside.
Then one by one lime bomb exploded at the city head, and the entire city wall was covered with quicklime powder.
"Ah... my eyes."
"It's so painful, I can't see anything."
"Water, water..."
"..."
After the lime bomb exploded, the wall was immediately plunged into chaos, and quicklime entered the eyes of the barbarian soldiers and began to burn the eyes of the barbarian soldiers.
They kept rubbing their eyes, but the more they rubbed them, the more pain they got. Some barbarian soldiers even took out a water bag to wash their eyes, but when the water entered their eyes, they immediately screamed.
The quicklime immediately burned their eyes when it encountered water.
A large amount of quicklime powder drifted from the city to the city, causing great chaos.
Niu Ben kept staring at the city wall, the lime powder gradually diluted. He could not help but startled as he saw the chaotic scene of the city head, and cold sweat broke out from behind.
This lime bomb is too scary.
However, the lime bomb made it impossible for the soldiers of the barbarians to open their eyes. This was exactly the plan of the attack. He immediately said: "The gunpowder barrel blasted the city wall!"
Upon receiving the order, the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army immediately rushed towards the city wall carrying the powder keg.
What surprised them was that the barbarian soldiers on the wall were unable to attack at all, because they couldn't open their eyes at all.
The soldiers carrying the gunpowder barrels were happy. They used chisels to dig holes under the city wall. The sound of artillery covered the sound of their chiseling.
On the city wall, Gu Duo was covering his eyes in pain. At this moment, his eyes were blurred and nothing could be seen, and his heart was already cold at this moment.
Several battles have made him understand that this is a completely different army from the Dayu team, and the weapons in their hands are also terrifying.
A thought lingered in his mind, "Shanhaiguan can't keep it."
He fumbled for the city wall and went down the tower. The soldiers above couldn't see the way and fumbled down. The soldiers who didn't touch down wanted to rush up and were blocked by soldiers who wanted to go down~EbookFREE.me~ and the slave soldiers in the city. Seeing this tragic situation, he was unwilling to climb the city.
In their opinion, the blood wolf tribe is over. They were originally the people of the Great Yu Kingdom, so why bother to sacrifice their lives for the barbarians at this time.
"We are defeated, we are defeated!" Gu Duo's vision gradually darkened.
As he fumbled down the city wall and left the city wall, an explosion sounded that almost deafened his ears.
In the skyrocketing gunpowder and flying gravel, the wall of Shanhaiguan's important town collapsed instantly.
Immediately afterwards, the voice of Qingzhou Army Charge rang through the sky, and the roar of Qingzhou Army soldiers covered everything.
On the hot air balloon, Niu Ben tears his eyes. The humiliation of a country and the humiliation of a nation will be washed away here today!
And this glory will belong to Qingzhou, belong to King Qi!
