Chapter 1951 Miscalculation!

As night fell, the sky was full of stars, and the half-moon hung high in the sky like a silver hook.

Outside Jinyang City, a large group of Song troops approached Jinyang City silently!

The soldiers held their tongues in their mouths and the horses wrapped their hooves to ensure that the Han army was caught off guard!
When they were still two hundred feet away from the top of the city, Lin Yongpeng looked at the brightly lit top of the city and whispered, "Let's move!"

The first thing is to test whether there are any loopholes in the Han army’s defense!

Ten Song soldiers suddenly rushed into the city like leopards!
Unexpectedly, after taking just a few dozen steps, the alarm sounded!
Ding-ling-ling! The clear and melodious sound of copper bells rang out in the silent night!

Lin Yong frowned and looked carefully, only to see a lot of bamboo chopsticks stuck on the ground, with transparent silk threads connecting the chopsticks and bells hanging on the threads.

Liu Yu behind Lin Yongpeng cursed: "Fuck! Liu Miezhou, this bastard, is so cunning!"

Lin Yongpeng shook his head and sighed: "All's fair in war!"

Suddenly, several rockets were fired from the top of the city wall and hit right near the bell!
Although the flame on the arrow was faint, dozens of rockets were closely spaced and the flames overlapped, illuminating an area of ​​dozens of feet in radius clearly. The ten Song soldiers were exposed and had nowhere to hide!
But there was a burst of dense whooshing sounds, and countless arrows fell from the sky. Although most of the arrows failed to hit the ten Song soldiers, everyone in the Song army understood that the plan of this night raid to sneak up to the city and then launch an attack has failed. As long as they move forward, they will become targets!

Lin Yongpeng said calmly: "It's okay, this is expected! Since they have already taken precautions, let's attack according to the second plan!"

The second plan is for the army to attack under a hail of arrows. As long as they can reach the city gate, they will win. Every soldier will pile all the explosives on his body under the city gate. Once detonated, the city gate will be blown open!

Since they knew the enemy's rain of arrows was powerful, the Song army was naturally well prepared this time. Everyone held a shield and wore light armor! The purpose of this battle was to blow up the city gate, so battering rams and ladders were not used! In fact, even if they wanted to use them, they didn't have them now!
Lin Yongpeng whispered: "Attack!"

Liu Yu immediately signaled to the messenger, who shot the rocket in his hand into the sky. A meteor with a tail shot straight into the sky and exploded in the night sky dozens of feet high, creating a huge, colorful firework chrysanthemum!

The light of the fireworks reflected in the eyes of the Song Dynasty soldiers, reflecting the burning ambition to achieve success and the hatred to avenge previous humiliation!

As the fireworks explode, the army attacks the city!

The Song army surged towards Jinyang City like a tide! The shouts of killing were deafening and resounded throughout the world!
When the front troops of the army rushed to a hundred feet outside the city, some soldiers suddenly felt that the ground under their feet suddenly became empty, and then they heard a crackling sound, followed by a flash of fire in front of their eyes, and then they lost consciousness!

Suddenly, several terrifying flames exploded from the earth, instantly illuminating the entire sky and earth, and the earth was as bright as day!
Almost at the same moment, a deafening roar was heard and the earth shook at the same time!
boom!
boom!
boom!
The Song army continued to charge and the ground continued to explode!
The flames flashed one after another, followed by scenes of blood and flesh flying everywhere!

The Song army that charged ahead had been blown to pieces, with no trace left! The casualties were heavy as they fought one after another!
This sudden scene caught the Song army off guard, and the tragic death of their comrades without a trace left a great shock to everyone!

The army suddenly stopped moving forward, as if the tide had stopped!

Liu Yu shouted angrily, "What are you doing? Attack! Attack now! Anyone who retreats will be killed!"

Lin Yongpeng frowned and immediately said, "Pause the attack!"

Liu Yu had no choice but to shut up immediately! He signaled the herald next to him to stop the attack!

Liu Miezhou said: "Send the musketeers over there and shoot the ground with their muskets to detonate the mines in advance!"

The musketeers came to the "safe zone", which allowed them to shoot at the top of the city walls without being hit by the ordinary crossbows of the enemy.

When the five hundred musketeers had just reached the safe area, a huge rocket suddenly shot up from the top of the city wall! It drew a huge arc from the sky! Lin Yongpeng predicted based on the trajectory that the end point of the giant arrow was exactly in the middle of the musketeer formation!
The musketeers showed no fear!

It's just one arrow, and it can only hit one person at most! If everyone makes a good prediction in advance, the arrow won't hurt you at all!
Liu Yu thought: Why only shoot one arrow? To warn? To intimidate? To test the range? Or to use it as a lantern?

Cui Yanjin stood at the front of the musketeers and ordered, "Raise your guns and aim!"

Five hundred gunmen raised their guns and aimed at the top of the city wall at the same time!

According to Cui Yanjin's plan, the five hundred musketeers were divided into five teams of one hundred men, and the five teams stood side by side. The shooting would be carried out in stages, and they must not shoot at the same time. It takes time to fill the gunpowder, fill the projectiles, and ignite the wicks. If there is a misfire during this period, the Han army will seize the opportunity to counterattack. Even if the opponent's ordinary crossbows cannot reach the range, the opponent has three-bow crossbows, which is still a big threat!

The giant arrow fell from the sky. Seeing that the arrow might hit them, several Song soldiers retreated a few steps to the side, and the formation of the entire team remained almost unchanged.

puff!
The giant arrow pierced the ground, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling!
Seeing that no soldier was injured, Cui Yanjin immediately said, "Shoot! Shoot once every half a foot, one by one, to blast out the landmines!"

As soon as the voice fell, a huge fireball suddenly exploded in the center of the musketeer formation! The fire flashed, and the sky and the earth were illuminated. Along with the huge fire, countless bodies of the Song army were lifted into the sky by the air wave!

boom!
boom!
boom!
A series of huge fireballs exploded on the ground. The deafening explosions were like thunder in the blue sky, and the flying dust covered the sky!
Bah!
There was a flash of fire, and then, ah—another scream!
Without waiting for orders, the musketeers simply fled!

I have to escape!

The land beneath my feet seemed to be buried with gunpowder, and there was not an inch of safe place!
Lin Yongpeng was furious!
Fortunately, these musketeers stopped after escaping the explosion area and did not continue to run away. This is considered a tactical avoidance!
Lin Yongpeng said: "Get some rolling logs!"

Liu Yu's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood!
On the top of the city wall, Liu Miezhou had excellent eyesight. Seeing that the Song army was not moving, he frowned immediately!
"How could they be so patient?"

The Song army did not send people to continue the charge as he had planned, nor did they send people to use crossbows to clear mines!

In fact, Lin Yongpeng did consider "rain of arrows to clean the ground"!
Theoretically, "Rain of Arrows" can seamlessly cover the entire wilderness in front of the city, and all the mines buried underground will be triggered and detonated!
But both Liu Miezhou and Lin Yongpeng knew that if they really used a rain of arrows to clean the place, the effect would be minimal!

Both parties can predict the other's next move!
Therefore, the triggering of a mine must meet certain conditions and restrictions. For example, the area of ​​the pressure plate that triggers the mine is large enough, and the soldier who steps on it just presses his entire body weight on it to detonate the mine. As for the sharp arrow, because of its strong penetrating power, it directly penetrates the wooden pressure plate, and the pressure plate cannot receive a greater triggering force, and the mine cannot be detonated!
At the foot of the city, Lin Yongpeng's eyes were grim, "I miscalculated!"

On the top of the city wall, Liu Miezhou sighed, "I miscalculated!"
