Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 358 The Battle of Guandu (8)

"Gao Qiang, bombard the gate of Xuwu County for me, I will enter Xuwu County tonight and have dinner in the county town!"

Liu Wei raised his whip and ordered to attack Xu Wu County.

"Here! Artillery Battalion, come with me!"

Gao Qiang bowed his hands to Liu Wei immediately, and then led more than a hundred soldiers of the artillery battalion, dragging the enhanced version of the Italian cannon, and carrying ammunition, and walked slowly towards Xu Wuxian.

"stop!"

When Gao Qiang was 300 meters away from Xuwu County, he waved his hand to signal the soldiers of the Artillery Battalion to stop.

"Place the cannon and load the ammunition!"

Gao Qiang stretched out his thumb, closed his left eye, and aimed with his right eye.

"Turn a little to the left!"

The cannon was placed crookedly, and Gao Qiang signaled the soldiers to turn the muzzle to the left with his left hand.

"Turn a little more!"

"Okay, stop! This is the direction!"

At this time, the enhanced version of the Italian cannon was facing the east gate of Xuwu County, and Yuan Jun soldiers on the city looked at the black muzzle, and felt numb in their hearts.They all secretly prayed that the city gate could hold on for a while longer, and they also hoped that Fengji would give the order to retreat sooner. It would be useless to waste him here. Without cannons, they would not be able to defend Xu Wu County.

With cannons, it just speeds up the speed of breaking the city.

"Load the ammo!"

Gao Qiang waved down the small green flag in his hand and issued an order.

Immediately, a soldier opened the iron cover above the breech of the gun, tore open a paper bag, and poured all the gunpowder inside.

Immediately after loading the gunpowder, two more soldiers came to the muzzle, stuffed a basketball-sized shell, and stuffed the shell tightly with a long iron stick.

"Report to the general, loading is complete!"

After loading the shells, a soldier shouted at Gao Qiang.

"Fire! Fire!"

Gao Qiang waved the red command flag on the phone again and ordered the fire to be lit.

A soldier had already taken out a fire bag, and after igniting it, he lit a few tens of centimeters of medicine twist.

"Chucky!"

The medicine twist was ignited and made a chi-chi sound.

In the eyes of the Liaozhou army, this chi chi sound was the sound of nature, because when the cannon fired, the city would be destroyed soon, and what awaited them was the wealth in the city.

In Liu Wei's view, that is burning money, as the saying goes, once the cannon is fired, ten thousand taels of gold.

If the gun goes on, although the ten thousand taels of gold will not be gone, the money will definitely be indispensable.

From Yuan Jun's point of view, the hissing sound was like a life-threatening talisman. Xu Wu County would definitely be breached within a few shots. At that time, what awaited them was death and fleeing.

No matter what these people think, since the medicine has been ignited, this shot will inevitably be fired.

"Boom!"

After a cannon shot, a big hole was blown out of the city gate of Xuwu County. Behind the city gate, the stone wall that Feng Ji ordered people to temporarily build was also crumbling and might collapse at any time.

"Oh, one cannon didn't break the city gate!"

After the gunpowder smoke passed, Gao Qiang saw that the city gate of Xu Wu County hadn't fallen down. Looking from a distance, the city gate was just blasted out with a hole the size of a washbasin.

"Continue to reload!"

The order flag in Gao Qiang's hand waved down again, and he ordered to the soldiers.

Anyway, his task was to blast through the gate of Xu Wu County, and he didn't have to worry about the ammunition. Liu Wei provided him with ammunition. If he had ammunition, he could fire at will.

"Boom!"

Another shot was fired.

This time, the east gate of Xuwu County couldn't hold on any longer, it was bombarded and collapsed, and the stone wall behind it also crashed and scattered all over the place.

"Report to my lord, the east gate of Xuwu County is ready to be breached!"

Gao Qiang came to Liu Wei and reported to Liu Wei after the city gate of Xuwu County was blasted open.

"Well, don't move your artillery battalion for now, let Yue Xi and Gao Shun go charge! If you encounter resistance, you can bombard it with artillery as you did a few days ago!"

After Liu Wei finished speaking, he did not immediately order Yue Xi and Gao Shun to attack, but sat quietly on the back of the wind, narrowing his eyes slightly, enjoying the warm spring breeze.

But the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry. Seeing Liu Wei like this, Yuexi was in a hurry and asked, "My lord, since the gate of the city has been blasted open, why didn't you order to charge? Brothers can't wait! The reporter said, if you don’t charge now, the city gate will be repaired later, wouldn’t it take a lot of effort?”

Although Gao Shun didn't speak, he looked at Liu Wei with doubts in his eyes.

"Hehe, don't worry, don't rush, just watch, as long as we wait here for a while, we can take down Xu Wuxian without bloodshed, why bother to attack Xu Wuxian by force!"

Liu Wei chuckled, and remained unmoved. The most irritating thing was that Liu Wei jumped off his horse, sat on the ground, and hummed a ditty. It didn't look like he was about to fight at all, if Liu Wei wasn't wearing a Armor, just based on his appearance, some people will definitely think that he is here for a spring outing.

About half an hour later, Liu Wei stood up from the ground, and said, "It's almost time, and they should all evacuate. Let's go into the city!"

Most of the generals didn't believe Liu Wei's words. Although Liu Wei was very powerful, they didn't think Liu Wei could make this group of people flee without a fight.

"What? Don't believe me!"

Seeing their eyes, Liu Wei said, "Do you dare to make a bet with me, after entering the city for a while, Xu Wu County will definitely not see half of Yuan Jun's soldiers!"

As soon as Liu Wei finished speaking, Sui Yuanjin immediately came out to disrupt the situation, and said, "My lord, just brag! You can make them flee without fighting, and my old Sui won't drink for half a month!"

"Oh? That's what you said? Then watch us drink at tonight's celebration banquet!"

Liu Wei chuckled, revealing a smirk.

"Then what if you lose, my lord?"

Sui Yuanjin asked back.

"How can I lose, but if I lose, I will give you half of my fifty altars of the best men's wine!"

Liu Wei laughed.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Sui Yuanjin seemed to be afraid that Liu Wei would go back on his word.Said hastily.

"It's all right! It's all up to you, anyway, you lose, so what am I afraid of!"

Liu Wei smiled slightly.

There was silence behind Liu Wei, and Sui Yuanjin looked back, only to see Guo Jia and others looking at him jokingly, while Zhao Yun and Huang Xu looked at him as if they were fools.

Sui Yuanjin panicked all of a sudden, and secretly wondered if he was really wrong, there are really no Yuan Jun soldiers in this city, and they all ran away?

The rest of the people have already believed what Liu Wei said, because Liu Wei never does anything that is not sure, especially in Liu Wei's current state, he is completely confident, and I am afraid that the bet this time is already sure .
