Chapter 2174 Unexpected
Lu Meng hesitated for a moment, then looked at Liu Xianjun outside the city who was blocked by the outer city wall, and nodded, "Okay! Let's concentrate all the forces we can concentrate to attack!"
Seeing that Lu Meng agreed, Zhang Zhao immediately asked the officers around him to pass the order.
At the same time, Lu Meng also ordered the messengers around him to order the troops on the top of the city to transport all the artillery to the Wucheng. In case of precautions, he would use the artillery to bombard the opponents in the Wucheng!
The artillery troops received the order from Lu Meng and immediately took action. Groups of people used their strength to drag and pull the cannons mounted on special wooden trucks.
The artillery was marching on the city walls, making loud rumbling sounds, and the speed was not fast. It would take more than a moment for the nearest artillery to be transported around the city.
At this time, the Wu army had already launched a more powerful and astonishing attack on Liu Xian's army in the urn city. The surging warriors forced the attacking battle axe to retreat to their military formation.
Immediately afterwards, the Wu army attacked the military formation frantically. The huge sound of killing was shocking. The surging military formation filled the entire city, surrounded by generals! The entire city was like a completely boiling pot!
At this moment, Wu Jun had already used up twelve points of strength under the inspiration of Huang Gai. Everyone was like a beast with chicken blood, constantly rushing into Liu Xianjun's round formation from all directions!
Liu Xianjun relied on the heavy shield and iron armor to resist desperately. Even with their elite soldiers, he felt indescribable pressure at this moment!
Liu Xian, who was in it, looked at the surging soldiers who kept pounceing on him from all directions, and listened to the deafening sound of killing in his ears, and couldn't help but frown and murmur: "Good guy! These guys are simply crazy!
I had underestimated them a little before! I didn’t expect that they could burst out with such a strong momentum and power!"
Lu Meng stood on the urn city and watched the fierce battle in the urn city, clenched his fists tightly, as if he was exercising force for the attacking troops below.
He suddenly turned his head and shouted at the general next to him, "Have the artillery not been shipped yet?"
The general quickly clasped his fists and said, "The recent artillery has arrived soon!" As if in response to his words, the roar of the cannon truck crushing the city wall came over, and the first batch of more than a dozen cannons had been transported near the city gate.
Lu Meng's eyes lit up and he immediately shouted: "Don't transport it here, just put it on the other side of the city gate and bombard the city!"
The general held his fists and immediately ran down to pass the order. When the artillery soldiers heard the order, they immediately stopped transporting the artillery and unfolded it to prepare for the launch.
It is not easy to set up on the city wall to bombard the urn.
Because the angle is too large, if the cannon wants to bombard the targets in the urn, it must extend the muzzle out of the inside of the city wall, and then use various methods to mount the butt of the cannon so that the muzzle is facing down the urn!
At this time, you must be extra careful, because if you are not careful, the entire cannon will slide down from the city wall because of its large angle!
Seeing that the artillery soldiers were very busy, but they were unable to shoot for a long time, Lu Meng couldn't help but get anxious. However, he didn't say anything, because he also understood that it was indeed not easy to bombard the urn from the city wall.
Boom! A shocking sound suddenly came.
Zhang Zhao and Lu Meng quickly looked in the sound and saw a cannon that could not be controlled because of its raised angle, and it actually slid down from the top of the city and fell into the urn!
Lu Meng frowned, and Zhang Zhao, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but say, "Deputy Governor, it's too difficult to do this! I think it's only a matter of time before we completely defeat the enemy. There's really no need to risk losing precious artillery to do such things!"
Lu Meng frowned and said, "How can the enemy army let us succeed safely? We must use all means and use all the weapons we can use to end the battle in the city in the shortest time! Otherwise, we will be afraid that unpredictable changes will occur!"
As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but look into the city. He saw the army led by Huang Gai still attacking fiercely, and the war was in full swing. The opponent's situation was even worse than before, but the entire military formation was still maintaining.
Lu Meng couldn't help but feel anxious, and at the same time, he had to admire the strong combat power and amazing resilience of his opponent's army.
I just think that if any other army was in such a situation, it would have been destroyed long ago! After all, the army attacked was many times more than theirs!
Dangdangdangdang...! The rapid sound of the gong suddenly appeared and came from the south gate! However, the sound only sounded seven or eight times and stopped abruptly!
Lu Meng and others were stunned for a moment, looking south, thinking that they had heard it wrong just now.
Lu Meng looked at Zhang Zhao and asked, "Did there be a sound of a gong just now?"
Zhang Zhao said: "It seems there is. This shouldn't be! Did a sentry accidentally touch the gong?"
Lu Meng frowned and said, "How is this possible? Could it be that an enemy army appeared at the south gate?..." Thinking of this, Lu Meng couldn't help but feel cold all over his body, and an extremely terrifying thought couldn't help but surge into his heart.
He turned his head to a general beside him and said, "You, hurry to the south gate to investigate the situation immediately!" The general bent to agree and ran down immediately.
Seeing Lu Meng like this, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but become more nervous and couldn't help but say, "The deputy governor, no need to be so nervous! I guess it was because the sentry cup bow and snake shadow on the other side of the south city gate mistakenly took the shadow of the woods outside the city as the enemy and sounded the alarm gong!
But I soon found out that I had made a mistake, so I stopped quickly! Don’t scare myself! Now is the critical moment. If the shadow of the archer and snake will cause all the previous efforts to be wasted, wouldn’t it be a laughing world!”
Lu Meng felt that Zhang Zhao was justified. He couldn't help but look inside the city. The army inside the city had already gained a great advantage, but he still failed to break the opponent's formation.
Looking at the city gate, the artillery was still busy setting up artillery, but everyone obviously had never done such a thing. Although they were very busy, they were unable to set up the artillery for a long time!
Lu Meng couldn't help but frown and said, "It's too slow! It's too slow!..."
Several thoughts quickly turned around in my mind, but finally I couldn't feel at ease and said to Zhang Zhao: "I will lead the army to the south gate to prevent accidents! Here we will follow my previous arrangements and act! The battle will be over as soon as possible!"
After saying that, he sent an order and hurriedly got off the urn.
Since almost all the troops are currently engaged in the battle to attack Liu Xian in the urn city, only about 10,000 troops were able to gather.
Lu Meng hurried to the south gate with these troops.
At this moment, the south gate was still very quiet. While Lu Meng was a little relieved, he also felt that he might have been really worried.
Dada dada...! The sound of horse hooves came from the front.
