"Prepare, ignite!"

After Li Yongtang adjusted the elevation angle of the launch, he no longer crossed the kitchen to replace him. He directly asked the artillery leader to command the launch.

Li Yongtang himself stood aside with a small black book and a small charcoal pen, concentrating on observing the entire process of artillery launch.

This time, Li Yongtang pressed the elevation angle of the launch relatively low. Especially after the soil at the bottom of the artillery was reinforced, he had reason to believe that at least one of the ten shots could hit.

This one does not mean breaking the city gate, but that the projectile can be hit by the city wall.

With the practical power of the 12-pound cannon, whether it is the bricks wrapped outside the rammed earth in the city wall or the arrow bush, as long as it is hit, it will have huge lethality!

According to past real-time experience, if you are lucky enough, as long as five shells hit the same range on the city wall, that is, within half a foot, the city wall will be knocked down.

If you want to collapse the city wall, you don’t need to be too precise. As long as the hit position is roughly the same, you can fully exert the huge impact force of the iron projectile.

In the era of black gunpowder, artillery attacks cities or military fortresses mainly rely on the impact of iron projectiles under the high initial speed of the bore.

However, the thickness of the city wall of Daming Mansion is far beyond the scope of ordinary city walls. After decades of reinforcement by the Fu family and his son, the city wall of Daming Mansion is probably required to hit at least ten times before it can be collapsed, right?

This is just Li Yongtang's own guess, and there is no evidence to prove it. After all, although the section of the city wall used for simulation is also covered with rammed earth and covered with blue bricks, it is impossible to build the thickness of Kaifeng City's wall.

In Li Yongtang's impression, since Daming Mansion is the entire Great Zhou Beijing and an important northern town that resisted the Khitans, after so many years of management by the Fu family father and son, the thickness of the city wall is probably very thinner than that of Kaifeng City, right?

Objectively speaking, Li Yongtang's judgment is basically correct. Among the cities of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the most thick one is naturally Kaifeng, the capital of the empire, followed by the Daming Mansion, which has been continuously repaired for decades.

The city is high, the ditch is deep, the army is numerous, and the food is sufficient. This is the reason why the father and son of the Fu family are entrenched in Daming Mansion and dare not listen to Li Zhongyi's orders.

Under the logic of unification, the vassal states that dare not listen to Li Zhongyi's greeting must be his thorn in his eyes and his flesh.

What's more, the Fu family army in Daming Mansion also had Empress Dowager Fu's reliance on this joke, so it was even more necessary to get rid of it soon!

"Boom..." The shells, carrying the power of destroying the world, once again smashed fiercely at the city wall of Daming Mansion.

At this moment, Fu Yanqing heard the screams from the people beside him, and quickly took his eyes back from the houses inside the city wall and turned around to look outside the city.

"Dong..." Accompanied by a earth-shaking loud noise, the entire city wall suddenly shaking. Fu Yanqing was not careful and his whole body shook for a few moments.

If it weren't for the quick and quick eyes and quick hands around him, Fu Yanqing would almost fall to the ground.

"What the hell is this? It has such great power? Is it really a cannon?" Fu Yanqing asked subconsciously after standing firmly.

No one around Fu Yanqing had seen the power of the cannon after it was fired. Everyone looked at each other and didn't know how to answer Fu Yanqing's three consecutive questions.

However, after everyone came to their senses, someone exclaimed: "City wall, city wall, look at the city wall..."

Fu Yanqing realized that the situation was different, and did not care about the hard dissuasion of his loved ones. He directly pushed everyone away, ran to the person who was shouting and bending over to look down at the city.

"Zi... Just above the city wall in front of Fu Yanqing, the blue bricks that were originally wrapped in rammed earth actually peeled off a large piece of it for no reason. At first glance, it was about two feet square.

"...What a great artillery..."

"Si..."

"Ah...how could this happen?"

"Ah...ah..."

Amidst the marvels, the generals of Daming Mansion were in a very heavy mood. They only hit one shot and a two-meter-meter-square-meter hole was broken on the city wall. If they hit a few more shots, could this Daming Mansion, which was originally known as the solid, be able to defend it?

When the white smoke from the ejected medicine disappeared, the big break in the Daming Mansion City Wall immediately appeared in front of Li Yongtang.

Li Yongtang held up a monocular lens and was reluctant to move his sight for a long time. The big hole was like a beautiful picture of a beautiful beauty, which firmly attracted his attention.

Standing high and looking far, Li Zhongyi on the command car was earlier than Li Yongtang and saw a big break on the city wall.

"Hehe, with such a big gap, even if the old man in the Fu family is not scared to death, he will be afraid!" After observing carefully for a while, Li Zhongyi put down the monocular lens in his hand and joked with a smile.

Liao Shanhe, who had already taken over the command of the entire army, grinned and said, "If there were no 6-pound and 12-pound cannons before, we could only bury the black powder into the city gate in the dark at night. As long as the defenders were a little alert, it would be a tragic situation where the medicine was destroyed and the people were killed."

Li Zhongyi nodded with a smile, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said, "In terms of range, it is definitely one inch long and one inch stronger. With 12 pounds of cannons, the so-called cow crossbows and divine arm crossbows that the Fu family army have so many so-called "bully crossbows and god-arm crossbows that cannot be reached by us, so they can only be blasted passively."

Given that Li Zhongyi was saying serious things, everyone, including Li Anguo, flattered them all.

"Master, with such a magical weapon in hand, after destroying the Fu family army, why not just raise troops north and fight Yelu Xiuge to the death with youzhou city?"

"The Lord from Heaven and my China are indeed the blessing of all people!"

Li Zhongyi glanced at Liao Shanhe, and he was puzzled in his heart. In just a few days, the level of flattery by Liao was so rapid that he almost caught up with the rocket's speed.

In the Li family army, there are both the real ability to lead troops to fight and the important generals who are good at flattering. Besides Liao Shanhe, who are there?

That boy Yang Lie is only good at leading troops to fight, but he has always been a silence. He knows in his heart that he just doesn’t flatter!

Song Yunxiang also occasionally flattered, but he was always worse than Liao Shanhe, which means that the problem of only understanding and not being able to express himself is slightly inferior to that of the time being.

As for Liu Heyang and Ma Guangda, the level of flattery between them is still a little different from Song Yunxiang, let alone catch up with Liao Shanhe.

When people carry people in Huahua sedan chairs, they can see if they can lift them or not!

"Old Liao, when the city is broken, remember to ask me to tell me." Li Zhongyi originally wanted to hide back in the tent and make a few cups of green tea and taste it beautifully. Seeing that Li Yongtang's work was effective, he felt even more at ease.

When Liao Shanhe heard Li Zhongyi shouting the word "Old Liao", he immediately understood. Li Zhongyi was in a good mood. He immediately bowed and said, "Master, after the troops return to the court, can you please give me a gift and give a famous name for the dog?"
