Chapter 1120 The Gate of Hell

Soon, every cannon was fired.

There are a total of twenty Hongyi cannons, four of them hit, two of them hit the city wall, and two of the warm shells hit the tower, sending warmth to the Bozhou Army in Luomeng Pass, and the other sixteen missed. , failed to send warmth.

This result was obviously not satisfactory to Qi Dayong. He asked the artillery team to continue to adjust, and soon began the second round of shelling.

After an earth-shattering loud noise, all the soldiers looked at the Hongyi cannons with miracle-seeking eyes.

Although not all of them were hit, this time eight gates hit the city wall, and three shells directly hit the gate tower, causing the gate tower to collapse.

"Good! Good! Good! Good fight! Hahahahahahahaha!"

Qi Dayong took a binoculars and looked happily at the Bozhou soldiers running around on the Guancheng, and ordered the third round of shelling, and then the Qin army infantry was ready to attack, and all the hammers on the ladder, well and railing were ready, and all means must be used. superior.

After all, artillery can't pierce the thick city walls, and it doesn't have the precision to smash open the city gates.

The Qin army scattered and fled the Bozhou soldiers on the city wall of Luomengguan without firing a single shot and almost collapsed. It is not known whether they can resist in time.

Anyway, after three rounds of shelling, Qi Dayong issued an order to siege the city. The Qin army had been preparing for a long time. When they heard the order of the drums to advance, they immediately moved forward quickly. There were shield chariots in front, shield soldiers behind, and then the siege troops. , clear division of labor.

For some reason, Luomeng Pass never failed to organize a strong resistance.

When the Qin army rushed down the tower, the artillery on the city gate didn't even fire a few times, and it didn't cause much damage to the Qin army. After the soldiers resisted, they couldn't even stop the Qin army.

Then I saw the Qin army set up a ladder, and soldiers like wolves and tigers rushed up the tower, and then the city was covered with swords, lights and swords, blood splashed everywhere, and stumps and broken arms flew around.

Under the city gate, the Qin army carried a heavy battering hammer, hitting the city gate again and again.

It looks quite intense, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like a sudden massacre.

After a chaotic battle, about half an hour later, the Banzhou military flag on the city gate was thrown off the tower, and the Qin army waved the dark black flying dragon battle flag, and cheers resounded throughout the world.

Luomengguan, where one man is the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it, was breached in this way, and the speed of the fall was unbelievably fast. Of course, their luck was really bad, especially Yang Yong, who was hit by a shell and smashed into a pulp , this luck is really no one.

As soon as Yang Yong died, the Bozhou Army, which was already low in morale, collapsed.

But there are still generals who are desperately trying to maintain the order of the army, and the next two rounds of shooting are the process of completely destroying their psychological defenses. Then, when the Qin army attacked, they faced a group of chaotic mobs with no rules and no command.

They were all thinking of going down to the city to escape, but because there were too many people, some roads were blocked by the shelling just now, and most of them couldn't escape, and they became shackles.

All in all, on the fifth day of the first month of the second year of Longwu, Luomeng pass was breached, and Yang Yinglong's lair of Xuanweisi city in Bozhou was within easy reach, and there was no natural danger to defend.

Of course, Qi Dayong didn't know at this moment that the Loushanguan defense line among the four defense lines of Yang Yinglong was broken through by the Qin army Ma Qiancheng a few hours ago, and Yang Yinglong's younger brother Yang Zhaolong was trampled to death in the chaos , when the body was found, except for the face, everything else had been trampled to pieces.

The Sangmu Pass defense line was also breached by Liu Ting's troops on the same day. This time, Liu Ting finally vented his anger and beheaded Sangmu Pass guard Tian Yipeng with his own hands.

The main force led by Zheng Ying accepted the surrender of the remnants of the five divisions and seven surnames in Tianbangtun, and agreed to march with them. Presented Tian Feipeng's head to Zheng Ying.

It turns out that this is the credit of the five divisions and seven surnames.

People from the local five divisions and seven surnames mixed into the third pass to play Infernal Affairs, persuaded the former guard and now the deputy general, and "understood him with reason and affection", and made it clear that the Yang family was doomed Therefore, in order to survive, the deputy general attacked and killed Tian Feipeng and surrendered to the army.

Zheng Ying was overjoyed, and led the army into the Sandu Pass without bloodshed, marching towards Hai Longtun.

From then on, until the sixth day of the first month of the second year of Longwu, Yang Yinglong's Bozhou Army lost all support.

The natural dangers around Hai Longtun were all lost, and the defenders were completely lost. After Yang Yinglong learned about it, he didn't even have time to vomit blood. He directly sorted out the [-] remnants of soldiers, gold, silver and jewelry, and rushed to Hai Longtun.

After losing his son and the most powerful general, he also lost his younger brother, relatives, and brother-in-law. All the cards in his hand were exhausted, and Yang Yinglong's spirit almost collapsed.

Not only that, he also betrayed his relatives. When he arranged for his family to clean up Shanghai Longtun, two-thirds of the servants in the family rolled up the belongings in his house and ran away. He was so angry that he even sent troops to chase and kill these white-eyed wolf-like servants.

On the [-]th, Yang Yinglong boarded Shanghai Longtun, and arranged the remnant soldiers and defeated generals to be stationed at the Twelve Great Passes before and after he mobilized [-] civilians and took four years to build, struggling to die.

Hailongtun is a well-deserved war fortress, surrounded by water on three sides and mountains on one side. The terrain is extremely dangerous. There are grand passes outside and palaces inside. The palace is luxurious in scale like a small court, and there are eunuchs serving it, which is enough to show that Yang Yinglong is not a man. heart of.

The first six passes are Tongzhu Pass, Tiezhu Pass, Feihu Pass, Feilong Pass, Chaotian Pass and Feifeng Pass, and the three rear passes are Wan'an Pass, Erdao Pass and Toudao Pass.

The city gates are engraved with the names of passes, archery towers are built on the city gates, and warehouses and barracks are all over the city, making it look like a castle where tigers and dragons dominate.

8 people, four years, an uninterrupted huge project, is a test for people's imagination, maybe it is unimaginable at all.

Copper pillars and iron pillars ring around each other, like iron hoops.

Flying Tiger Pass and Feilong Pass, the gates are tightly closed, powerful and threatening, it is simply a series of ghost gates, and the gates kill people.

The three passes in the back of the village are high into the clouds, showing the kingly majesty of Yang Yinglong and Yang Tianwang.

And these checkpoint fortress palaces are built on the mountain, and no one knows how those huge stones and huge trees were transported up and how they were built.

Things that no one knows will become legends, so the locals say that Yang Yinglong has a driving whip, and every night, he can drive those huge rocks and trees to run up the mountain by himself.

Does anyone understand this bitter irony?

How can there be a mountain whip in the world?Only chase the whip!It was not the boulders and trees that were driven up the mountain in the middle of the night, but the [-] peasants.

Under the tyranny of the Yang family, the people dare not speak out, so they can only use legends to insinuate Yang Yinglong.

The splendor of Hailongtun hides the blood and tears of [-] civilians for four years. No one knows how many civilians died for the glorious Hailongtun palace group and Yang's own enjoyment in those four years.

It will not be recorded in the history books, and no one will remember it, because those who died are grassroots, and their lives are as cheap as grass.
