Zhou Yu couldn't figure out what the Qin army wanted to build a high platform of earthen mountains outside the city.

After thinking about it, Zhou Yu didn't think of anything. In the end, Zhou Yu could only order him to ignore him.

Zhou Yu believes that I have the strong city of Chanling City anyway. No matter what tricks you play, I don’t understand anyway. I want to see what you can do.

In short, if you want to break the city, you always have to send troops to attack. Zhou Yu is now waiting for the Qin army to attack the city with the unchanging changes.

The Qin army outside the city was following Jia Xu's arrangement and began to build dirt mountains along the walls of Chanling City. The Eastern Wu army in the city seemed to be afraid of being trapped, and did not even harass it. The two armies fell into a strange calm.

This strange atmosphere is like the calm before the storm is coming. People in the city don’t know that what awaits them is not a storm, but a meteor fire rain that is a hundred times more terrible or thousands of times more storm.

The Qin army was busy outside Chanling City for two days. Small hills outside Chanling City rose from the ground. These hills were more than five feet taller than the city walls of Chanling.

In the evening, the Qin army, which had not moved for several days, suddenly moved. Under Chen Qingzhi's order, the Qin army sent out more than 100,000 troops and set up a pocket array like a fishing net outside Chanling City.

"Boom, rumble!"

"Boom! Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

After the sky was completely dark, there were only sounds of roar outside the city of Chanling, as if thousands of troops were passing by.

This sound was the sound of the Qin army transporting artillery. The Qin army's artillery were all unloaded from the ship. These cannons were all cast in pure copper, and the weight of one cannon was a thousand pounds.

Usually, if these cannons are installed on giants like three-rail cannon ships and rushing ships, they will naturally not show anything. However, if they are moved to the ground for use now, transportation will be very inconvenient.

You know, there are no mechanized transport vehicles such as tractors in this era. The ones that transport these cannons are driven by horses and people.

In this era, there are no asphalt roads, cement roads, etc. The best way to go is to use the official road with solid loess. However, there is not even an official road in front of Chanling County.

In order to transport these artillery from the shore to the frontier positions, the Qin army soldiers were very tired.

Moreover, in order to prevent the Eastern Wu soldiers on the city from seeing the artillery and being prepared, the Qin army could only transport these artillery at night. The road was difficult to walk, and it was difficult to see clearly at night. The transport of these 100 artillery guns went from dark to the third day.

Outside Chanling City, a hundred artillery pieces were neatly arranged on the earthen mountain built by the Qin army.

Next to these artillery, there are shells. These shells are not conventional solid and flowering bullets, but incendiary bombs.

In naval forces, fire attack is the first priority. These incendiary bombs were originally invented by Huang Yueying, the great inventor, to deal with the ships of the Eastern Wu naval army. However, the manufacturing of these incendiary bombs is very complicated. Now that they have just been mass-produced, the water war has ended.

Originally, these incendiary bombs were basically useless, so Jia Xu thought of this trick and just used these things.

In addition to conventional gunpowder and sulfur, the incendiary bomb also contains a large amount of tung oil and catkins. The catkins are very light. Once caught, they fly around and can quickly spread the fire.

At this time, on the earthen mountain outside Chanling City, the Qin army's artillery and ammunition were ready, and they were waiting to smash all these incendiary bombs into Chanling City.

On the earthen mountain, Jia Xu stroked the goat's whiskers and said to Chen Qingzhi: "Master, please order me, you will have to bear this eternal infamy for the rest of your life.

"Ha ha!"

"This plan was created by you, Jia Xu. If the people in the world want to scold you, they will scold you, Jia Xu first, and then they will scold me, Chen Qingzhi." Chen Qingzhi laughed loudly.

After laughing, Chen Qingzhi returned to normal and shouted at the messenger beside him: "Send the messenger, calibrate the gun position."

"Crack! Crack!"

At the command of Chen Qingzhi, waves of gears were heard from the earthen mountain, and the Qin army artillery was aiming the muzzle in the city.

"Report to the commander, all the artillery is aimed at the city!" the messenger replied.

Chen Qingzhi looked upright and ordered: "Free shooting, smash all the shells into Chanling City."

"fire!"

The Qin army artillery commander shouted loudly, and the flag in his hand waved heavily.

Outside Chanling City, on the earthen mountain, the Qin army's hundreds of cannons made roars, and countless artillery shells were smashed into Chanling City from a high point.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The Qin army's artillery, those that entered Chanling City, were all incendiary bombs. After these incendiary bombs were shot into the city, they immediately ignited the city with raging flames.

Because these incendiary bombs are mixed with a large number of catkins, the fire spreads very quickly, and most of the city are wooden buildings. It is almost less than a stick of incense, and half of the city has been spread by the fire.

"Put the fire! Put the fire quickly!"

"Fight! Fight!"

When the city was on fire, the soldiers in the city naturally had to find ways to put out the fire, but the water source in the city was limited. Now almost every well is in front of the front of the water.

At this time, veteran Cheng Puzheng and Zhou Tai were patrolling the city wall. Zhou Yu had been training these days and returned to the government office to rest early this morning.

"Report..."

"Report to the Deputy Governor, a fire broke out in the south of the city!"

The messenger had just knelt down and then knelt down again.

"A fire broke out in the north of the city."

"There is a fire in the east of the city."

"A fire broke out in the west of the city."

Cheng Puxin said, "What else do you report? I have seen it on the city wall now. Do you still need to report it? There are fire everywhere now."

Cheng Pu counted the heads of the commander soldiers, and there were a total of five people. There were four people in the south, north, east, and west of the city. Why did there be one more person?

Cheng Pu pointed to the last messenger who had not yet arrived and shouted: "What are you going to say?"

The messenger bowed and said, "Deputy Governor, the government office caught fire."

"What, the government office caught fire."

"It's broken, the Grand Governor is still in the government office." Zhou Tai was shocked when he heard this.

The main task Sun Ce assigned to Zhou Tai was to protect Zhou Yu. Now that the government office is on fire, Zhou Yu is still in the government office. How can Zhou Tai be unsuspecting?

"General Cheng, please be optimistic about the city walls and prevent the Qin army from taking the opportunity to attack."

"I'll go and save the Grand Governor!" Zhou Tai said hurriedly.

"Go quickly, go quickly."
