"Prime Minister, is it time to use it?"
Wang Qing asked Li Assistant while looking at the retreating soldiers.
Li Assistant's eyes flickered slightly and he shook his head and said, "It's not the time yet.
The enemy's morale is now at its peak.
Even if we can break through the city, the resistance we encounter will be very tenacious.
It's better to wait a little longer and wait for the bandits' morale to weaken."
Let’s make one more effort to capture Daming Mansion.”
Wang Qing thought for a while and nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, we will wait a little longer."
Du Bo waved his hand again to signal Kou Meng and Zhang Shou to continue the charge.
"kill" Kou Meng waved his hand and the 10,000 troops behind him went to Daming Mansion again to kill.
At this time, the Liangshan soldiers in Damingfu City also changed to a new group of people, and all the materials for defending the city were replenished.
Just like before, the screams and wailings sounded again as arrows rained down.
Wang Qingjun launched three attacks in a row in the morning.
Although Liangshan was repulsed each time, this attitude of not caring about the life and death of the soldiers also made Shi Wengong and others look slightly askance.
Du Bu strongly disagreed with this method of attack, but when studying tactics yesterday, Li Zhu strongly advocated doing so, and Wang Qing trusted Li Zhu very much, so Du Bu had no choice.
Although Du Fu was the general of the Chu State, Wang Qing did not seem to trust him.
It could be said that Wang Qing seemed to be following the example of the Song Dynasty in emphasizing civility over military affairs.
Not only Du Fu, but also other generals, Wang Qing did not seem to trust him.
Just when Du Bo was about to order another attack, Wang Qing ordered the army to suspend the attack and asked Du Bo to command other generals to prepare for a charge to break the city.
Du Bo looked back and didn't understand why Wang Qing gave such an order.
If there was really a way to conquer Daming Mansion so quickly, why didn't he use it from the beginning and had to sacrifice tens of thousands of soldiers before giving the order?
No matter how doubtful Du Bo was, he still gave the order according to Wang Qing's instructions.
On the city wall, Shi Wengong looked at Wang Qingjun who was changing formations, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
At this time, Wang Qingjun was gradually setting up an arrow array.
This was a pure charge formation.
Now that he was attacking the city, it should be logical to form a regular square or rectangular array.
Why was he setting up an arrow array?
"Brother Tianbiao, can you see the formation of bandits outside the city?"
Shi Wengong asked Yun Tianbiao beside him.
Yun Tianbiao also frowned at this time.
He heard Shi Wengong ask and replied, "Why did the thieves set up an arrow array?"
"Brother, we also found a problem."
Shi Wengong asked again.
"Brother Shi, I feel that the bandits must have some back-up plan."
Before Yun Tianbiao could finish speaking, Ling Zhen from the far end suddenly shouted, "No, the bandits have artillery."
All the brothers were shocked when they heard Ling Zhen's words.
The generals in Liangshan were familiar with the power of artillery.
Several battles were won by artillery at critical moments.
The brothers hurriedly looked outside the city, and sure enough they saw behind Wang Qingjun, groups of soldiers pushing artillery pieces forward with all their strength.
It's just that Wang Qingjun's artillery is much smaller than Liangshan's sky-blasting cannon, and is similar to the original wind cannon.
Judging from the number, there are about ten doors, and they are being pushed forward in a row.
"Why does Wang Qing have artillery?"
Shi Wengong asked anxiously.
At this time, Wu Yong and others heard the news and ran up.
Hearing Shi Wengong's words, he replied, "Wang Qing has joined forces with the imperial court.

This artillery must be provided by the imperial armor bureau."
"The military advisor is right.
This is the thunder cannon used by the Capital Division.
It is less powerful than our sky-blasting cannon, but because it contains caltrops, it is very damaging," Ling Zhen explained quickly.
"Can this thunder cannon break through the city gate?"
Wu Yong asked the key question.
Ling Zhen looked at the number of thunder cannons outside and said solemnly, "If the bandits fire all ten thunder cannons at the city gate, even though the gate of Daming Mansion has been reinforced, it will definitely be breached within two rounds."
Ling Zhen is known as the Thunderbolt.
Before coming to Liangshan, he was in the first battle of the capital.
He was the number one gunner in the Song Dynasty, so he was very clear about the power of each type of artillery.
When Shi Wengong heard that two rounds of artillery could breach the city gate, he immediately shouted loudly, "Yun Tianbiao, Bujie, Zou Yuan, Zou Run, Xue Dounan, Zhang Tao, Yao Yi, Sister Gu, Mo Zhen follow me down to the city to guard the city gate."
The rest of the brothers followed the military advisor's instructions to guard the city wall, and no one was left above the city gate to prevent the city gate from collapsing and causing harm.
Also, keep a shield in front of you to avoid being hurt by the caltrops from the thunderbolt cannon.
Remember, even if you fight to the death against Daming Mansion, you must not lose anything."
After giving the instructions, Shi Wengong led his brothers and ran quickly towards the city.
"Get the shield quickly" Wu Yong shouted loudly.
Now is the moment of crisis.
Everyone does not care about their own safety and devotes all their energy to defending the city.
Ling Zhen quickly walked to Wu Yong and said loudly, "There are four sky-blasting cannons in Damingfu City.
I will lead people to get them.
The damage of those ten thunder cannons is too great.
If we don't destroy them, this battle will be ruined."
It will be difficult to fight” After hearing this, Wu Yong nodded and said, "Brother, go quickly, we must destroy the thunder cannon."
After hearing this, Ling Zhen ran towards the city quickly without even bothering to answer.
At this time, the ten thunder cannons outside the city had been pushed down to the appropriate position.
Du Bo's eyes widened when he saw the cannons.
Although Du Bo had never seen the power of artillery with his own eyes, as the story of Liangshan's artillery bombardment of the city spread, everyone in the world knew that artillery could be used to attack in addition to giving orders.
"No wonder the king is so confident.
It turns out that our army has such a sharp weapon, but since we have artillery, why didn't we bring it out earlier?"
After Du Bo was surprised, he became confused again.
The Chu army's ten thunder cannons were personally commanded by Li Zhu.
At this time, Li Zhu was looking at Daming Mansion with a proud look on his face.
When he saw the Liangshan soldiers on the city taking out their shields in a panic, Li Zhu shook his head and said He muttered, "Stupid, can artillery be blocked by a shield?"
"Are you all ready?"
Li Zhu asked a soldier next to him.
“Everything is ready” Li Zhu nodded and said loudly, "Aim at the city gate and fire."
"Chichi" "Boom boom boom" Ten thunderbolt cannons fired at once.
This kind of roaring sound was very familiar to Liangshan soldiers.
However, in the past, they had fired at others.
This time, others were firing at themselves.
If Lin Chong knew about this matter in the future, he would definitely say in his mind, "Sooner or later, you will have to pay back if you come out to fool around."
"Be careful!"
Wu Yong heard the sound of the cannon and shouted as he crouched behind the shield.
At this time, Shi Wengong and others were leading a large number of Liangshan soldiers to guard behind the city gate, but they were dozens of meters away from the city gate.
Otherwise, once the city gate collapsed, they would be bombed before the Chu army entered the city. dead.

After the first round of cannon fire, the city gate of Daming Mansion did not collapse, but there were many cracks in the gate tower and city gate.
A moment later, the second round of "boom, boom, boom, boom" sounded again.
"Crash bang" Damingfu city gate collapsed:
