With blood splashing, Lu Fei drew a long sword from the chest of the slave soldier.

At this time, his body had been stained red with blood. Even though the stones and rolling logs were smashed down again and again, there were slave soldiers climbing up in the chaos on the 500-meter city wall.

"Push down the ladder!"

With an order from Lu Fei, the two soldiers picked up their forks to hold the ladder and pushed them out. The slave soldier climbing on the ladder screamed and fell from the ladder.

"Bladeshield!" Looking up in front of him, Lu Fei only saw the moment the barbarian archer bent his bow to shoot an arrow, he hurriedly shouted.

The shield hand who was guarding the wall immediately tilted and lifted the shield, and then a sound like raindrops sounded on the shield.

"Da da da!"

When the sound ended, a soldier's shield was shot into a hedgehog, and the iron sheet attached to the outer layer of the wooden shield was shot through.

Lu Fei looked at the arrow and cursed: "Sunder Armor, brothers, be careful."

Then he let a school lieutenant take his place, and he walked towards Xiao Ming.

"His Royal Highness, use a catapult."

Lu Fei was a little aggrieved. Until now, only the slave soldiers had died, and the barbarian archers had only thrown at a distance of more than 100 meters. It was safe.

Several soldiers held their shields in front of Xiao Ming. He said, "I am preparing to inform you that the soldiers will throw the gunpowder cans. Remember, the three leads must be ignited at the same time."

"Okay!" Lu Fei responded, turned and ran back, shouting all the way, "Blow up these for me."

This time, Xiao Ming specially ordered three fuses to be installed in the gunpowder canister. After all, the thrown gunpowder cans are easy to extinguish. The three wires can ensure the success rate of the explosive canister.

The soldiers in charge of the catapult immediately put the gunpowder canister into the groove of the catapult, and one after another aimed at the barbarian archers.

These barbarian archers stood at a position close to two hundred meters, relying on their bows and arrows to constantly shoot the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army at the head of the city.

Many soldiers fell to the ground injured by bows and arrows.

"Let it go!" gave an order.

Fifty catapults simultaneously ignited the gunpowder canister of the fuse.

The barbarian archer who was shooting saw many black spots in the sky, realized that it was a stone thrown by the catapult, and immediately avoided.

"Boom, boom..."

A series of sounds, the gunpowder canister wrapped in thick straw hit the ground and made a dull sound.

There were also some archers who couldn't dodge, and their brains burst directly from the gunpowder canister.

The barbarian soldiers who easily dodged the gunpowder cans looked at the round objects on the ground and began to laugh at them, seeming to be proud of successfully avoiding them.

It's just that their laughter ended with a loud explosion.

The powerful impact and thick smoke instantly enveloped the barbarian soldiers nearby, and the barbarians within a radius of ten meters fell one after another.

The fragments of the earthenware pot exploded from the gunpowder pot, and the stench of iron nails mixed with stool quickly diffused.

The barbarian soldier at the center of the explosion was blown to pieces, while the soldiers on the periphery were basically injured and fell to the ground wailing.

The barbarian soldiers were so scared that they retreated.

At this time, the second wave of gunpowder cans was thrown over by the catapult again, and the wounded soldiers who had not had time to escape were torn apart in another explosion.

"Good fight! Hahaha..." Lu Fei laughed loudly from the wall.

This unexpected attack by the gunpowder cans caused the barbarian soldiers to retreat one after another, and the slave soldiers who lost their cover were again covered by the dense arrow rain on the city wall.

Gultay held on to the reins to avoid that the seated horse flees madly because of panic.

The continuous huge explosions made the barbarian horses panic, and the barbarian soldiers pulled their reins to prevent the horses from escaping.

"Is this King Qi's secret weapon?" Gultai's face turned pale.

Although separated by three hundred meters, he still felt the slight vibration of the ground caused by the explosion.

"It should be." Liu Xuan said, "I didn't expect that after the fire tube, Dayu State was using this gunpowder weapon again."

Gurtai said: "Hmph, soon they will understand that our barbarians also use gunpowder, and then I will blow their walls and soldiers into the sky."

Liu Xuan nodded. He knew that there were many gunpowder kegs hidden in the camp. These gunpowder kegs were specially used to blow up the city wall.

This trick was learned by the barbarians during the war with the Ottoman Empire. One purpose of this siege was to test the Qingzhou Army's defensive capabilities.

The second is to keep digging holes into the city wall. When the army arrives, the city wall can be blown up with gunpowder, thus annihilating the defenders in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Liu Xuan had already seen the hope of victory. He said: "However, it is said that Beshan Khan can throw stones at a distance of five hundred meters this time. At that time, these Cangzhou city defenders were not beaten. Copies."

Gultai smiled and said, "Yes, let these southerners live for a few more days."

After speaking, he made the archers withdraw one after another, and didn't care about the life and death of the slave soldiers.

The battle lasted from morning to night, and the barbarians drove out wave after wave of slave soldiers. At this time, the city was full of corpses of slave soldiers. The setting sun was like blood, making this scene even more desolate.

The trenches under the city were now filled with corpses. Xiao Ming watched as the retreating slave soldiers smashed the city wall.

"Until now, even the barbarian's fur hasn't been injured a few, **** it!"

Niu Ben comforted: "His Royal Highness, this is the barbarian's usual method of warfare. Only when the opponent is exhausted and suffered heavy losses will they attack."

Looking at the artillery concealed in the black cloth, Xiao Ming nodded, and said, "No matter, when the main force of the barbarians arrives, this king will definitely make them pay."

At the end of the day's fighting, Niu Ben immediately asked the soldiers to prepare stones, rolling logs and other materials.

This time it was just a tentative attack by the barbarians, and the real **** battle was still behind, he knew this well.

However, judging from today's warfare~lightnovelpub.net~, his confidence in this guarding battle has greatly increased. The full-body armor of the Qingzhou Army played a great role in this battle, and there were few soldiers casualties.

The only time the injury was severe was a bow and arrow thrown by a barbarian archer, and many people were injured.

Back to the hall, Luluo thoughtfully removed the armor from Xiao Ming. Seeing the blood on the armor, Luluo worried: "His Royal Highness, where are you injured?"

"I am not injured."

Xiao Ming was a little tired. His nerves had been tense all day, and at this time he finally relaxed.

Luluo sighed lightly, and his heart was beating with fright just now. At this moment, he said: "Yes, Your Highness, Pang Changshi brought over and said that the Department of Equipment had four more artillery delivered to Cangzhou City."

"Really? At this moment, this king has heard the best news today." Xiao Ming said.

With the addition of these four, there are thirty artillery in Cangzhou City, and soon, the main force of the barbarians will probably arrive.
