Chapter 1318 Blasting the City Wall

In the dark night.

Yue Fei and his men quietly arrived outside Haozhou City.

"That is the weakest point of Haozhou Chen, where the ratio of earth and stone is wrong!"

Yue Fei pointed to the city wall of Haozhou in front of him and said. He observed Haozhou in a circle during the day and finally determined the weakest point of Haozhou.

At this time, there were still only scattered torches on Haozhou City, and the sky was pitch black. Not only was there a new moon today, but the wind was blowing in the evening, and there was a thin layer of clouds in the sky that blocked the starlight.

"God is really helping me!"

Yue Fei stretched out his hand and looked at it. Even if he was close at hand, he could barely see clearly. In this case, it was impossible for the defenders on the city to detect it. Moreover, because of the wind, the sound of the wind could also obscure the movement of the excavation.

"hurry up!"

Yue Fei looked at the soldiers around him and said, these are the most astute soldiers he has picked out.

"Yes, General."

A few people took small hoes and shovels and quietly went to Haozhou.

Yue Fei and his people were outside ready to respond at any time.

In the dark night, the rustling sound of digging under Haozhou City continued, but it was nothing compared to the whistling wind, and could not be heard at all above the city.

Excavation does not mean just digging a big hole. Yue Fei specifically asked officers who were familiar with artillery and some knowledge of blasting. If they want to blast the city wall, it is not enough to dig a hole and bury explosives, even if the wall is a bit "crude".

To successfully blast a city wall, explosives need to be buried at a certain density in a certain area.

The defenders in Haozhou City knew nothing about what was about to happen.

Inside the city.

Jin Wushu and Wanyan Zongjun were still drinking.

"It's better to be here. Isn't there a saying in the Central Plains: The sky is high and the emperor is far away!"

Wanyan Zongjun said with a smile while holding his wine glass.

"In the military, of course you must obey military orders!"

Jin Wushu looked at Wanyan Zongjun and said, what can an army of hundreds of thousands do without any rules?

"Stop making any noise, I'll just relax!"

Wanyan Zongjun drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"This is tasteless, the wine from Tokyo tastes better!"

Wanyan Zongjun looked at the wine glass in his hand and said dissatisfiedly.

"You're talking about the strong bar brewed by Sun Lei in Liangshan. A small jar of that thing costs a sheep!"

Jin Wushu said.

"After I kill Sun Lei and conquer the Central Plains, I will drink enough!"

Wanyan Zongjun gritted his teeth and said.

"Is it really okay for you not to go back like this? Don't let His Majesty blame you."

Jin Wushu looked at Wanyan Zongjun and asked. Wanyan Zongjun only came to convey the order, but ended up not leaving once he came. It didn't matter to him, but Wanyan Wu's beggars would probably blame him.

"I'll leave tomorrow. If I had known, I would have led the troops out too!"

Wanyan Zongjun nodded and said, although he didn't want to go back, he also knew that not going back for a long time was not an option.

"Then drink more today!"

Jin Wushu raised his wine glass and looked at Wanyan Zongjun and said.

"OK!"

Wanyan Zongjun said with a smile.

"Boom boom boom!"

Just as the two of them were toasting, a violent explosion sounded, and the entire city shook, like an earthquake.

After the explosion, there was a rumbling sound of collapse. The sound was continuous and getting louder, like a mountain collapse.

"No, enemy attack!"

Jin Wushu stabilized his body, his expression changed drastically, and he yelled outside.

But the soldiers outside were already frightened and were in chaos. Some even rushed into the hall to take shelter.

"Why panic! Follow me and kill the enemy!" Wanyan Zongjun suddenly stood up and rushed out with his sword in hand.

"Go away!"

Those panicked soldiers blocked the door and were still running in. Wanyan Zongjun was upset and started to kill with his sword.

After killing several panicked soldiers, he was able to frighten those soldiers.

"What happened? Where did the enemy come from?"

Jin Wushu grabbed a soldier and asked.

"kill!"

Before the soldiers could answer, shouts of killing had already sounded in the city.

"What? Coming in? How is that possible?"

Jin Wushu listened to the killing cry in disbelief. The sound was very close and was already in the city.

"General... the wall has collapsed... collapsed!"

The soldier stammered.

"What? The wall collapsed?"

Wanyan Zongjun was startled and broke out in a cold sweat. He had already woken up from the drunkenness. He didn't understand how this could happen. He could clearly see Haozhou's defenses. They were quite solid and there were no traces of enemies around him. How could he be suddenly attacked? Break through?

"Blow the horn and follow me to kill the enemy!"

Jin Wushu yelled that he could no longer control so much at this time and must kill the enemy quickly.

The horn sounded, and the defenders in the city calmed down and began to gather towards the place where the horn sounded.

"Light the torch!"

Jin Wushu looked at the darkness outside and listened to the screams that kept ringing. He knew that the enemy was hunting in the dark at this time, and as the best hunter, he knew that he must find the enemy from the dark at this time. .

Torches were lit one after another, as well as fires that had been prepared in the city, and the dark city was quickly illuminated.

"Yue Fei!"

Jin Wushu looked at an enemy illuminated by the fire. He was a young general wearing a white robe. His round face was full of pride. Was it Yue Fei or who?

"Yue Fei!"

Wanyan Zongjun also gritted his teeth.

"Haha, you two are here, then die together!"

Yue Fei laughed and slashed a running Jin soldier to death, then looked at Jin Wushu and Wanyan Zongjun with a joking expression.

"Kill, kill Yue Fei for me!"

Jin Wushu roared angrily, and led his men to rush towards Yue Fei. The city had been destroyed, and nothing else mattered. Everything he had done during this period was in vain, and now the only way to save it was to kill Yue Fei.

"kill!"

Wanyan Zongjun also roared and rushed forward first.

Yue Fei didn't panic at all. He jumped onto an earthen house with a sword and took advantage of the terrain, looking down at the enemy from a high position.

When Wanyan Zongjun saw Yue Fei occupying the high ground, he took a hard bow and was about to shoot.

But Yue Fei didn't give him a chance, he jumped down from the house and struck Wanyan Zongjun with one strike.

Wanyan Zongjun, who was holding a hard bow, had no time to shoot, so he threw the hard bow at Yue Fei, then picked up the weapon stuck on the ground next to him and faced Yue Fei.

Yue Fei's sword was not affected at all. Pu Dao continued to attack Wanyan Zongjun with the hard bow, and struck Wanyan Zongjun's spear hard with his sword.

Yue Fei said nothing and slashed with one knife after another, causing Wanyan Zongjun to retreat continuously.

"Kill the enemy!"

Jin Wushu commanded the soldiers to counterattack. At this time, he saw the situation clearly. There were not many enemies entering the city. According to the number of their troops, they could be repulsed.

But the result was very bad. The enemy's combat power was very strong, and one of them could almost equal ten. It was a wanton massacre in the city.

"how is this possible?"

Jin Wushu couldn't believe all this. His elite men couldn't stop the enemy.

"Don't worry about that, kill Yue Fei first!"

Wanyan Zongjun shouted to Jin Wushu that he could not defeat Yue Fei and the battle could not be prolonged.
