Chapter nine hundred and ninety-two interests flood the city
His mother quickly covered his mouth and bowed to the old man who showed a fierce look in front of her and said, "Clan elder, the child is ignorant, I will go home to teach him..."
A sensation! Before the woman finished speaking, a loud bang appeared. As the earth moved, the mountain began to shake, and the dust on the eaves around her fell down, as if the heaven was angry, and everyone's expression became frightened.
Everyone turned around and looked at the clan elder, but the clan elder who was still tall just now was already hiding under the table like an ostrich, and screamed at the top of their lungs: "Protect me! Come and protect me!"
But his screams were soon covered by the roar that resounded through the world. The sharp whistling cannon stones drew a perfect curve in the air and hit the top of the ancestral hall heavily. With just a slight blow, the exquisite top of the ancestral hall collapsed instantly.
I don’t know what part turned into powder, Xiao Xiao fell down, dust rose everywhere, making everyone become natives, heads, eyebrows, clothes... Everything around turned gray and white.
As the dust rose, waves of shrill screams suddenly came. Many people were bleeding from their seven orifices and screamed wildly on the road. They could no longer hear any sound. Some people were wandering in the streets like walking corpses, and the entire stone city was like a purgatory on earth.
There is no longer anyone standing on the walls of the stone city. The continuous bombardment caused some of the city walls to collapse. The soldiers or people under the walls were buried. People with good luck could still have the luck to climb outward, while some people were directly suffocated to death under the city.
The arrow tower on the city gate had long disappeared without a trace. When the first roar sounded, the wooden arrow tower instantly turned into powder, and the scattered wood chips even pierced into the soldiers' eyes. The Li family's uncle and nephew ran down the city wall in a hurry.
When the roar weakened slightly, they looked back, the city gate building where they were just now had disappeared without a trace.
Li Quanmu stood there blankly. The scene in the city was like purgatory. The people screamed and the house collapsed. This was a scene he had never seen before. It was even more frightening than the turning of the earth dragon.
The Great Song soldiers outside the city are clearly a thousand steps away from the stone city. Who would have thought that their cannon stones could already attack the city?!
The soldiers on the city wall retreated like a stray dog. Huge cracks had appeared. The rammed earth wall could not help them resist the power of cannon stones. The fear in their hearts could be seen from the terrified eyes of the soldiers.
The sound of war drums gradually sounded, and the dull Li Quanmu woke up. Through the loud and rhythmic drum sound, he knew that the Song people were about to start attacking!
Li Gangcheng, who was standing there at a loss, stood there in a daze. Li Quanmu stepped forward angrily and fought, "Is this what you said that the Song army is vulnerable? The Song people are so powerful that they will have the momentum of fire and extinguishing the earth before the troops reach their peak. How can the small stone city be invincible?!"
"I don't know, but I don't know!"
"You... caused me to this point!"
Li Gangcheng came to his senses and hurriedly pulled Li Quanmu's broad sleeves and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I have 20,000 troops in the stone city, so I can resist..."
"Twenty thousand soldiers? I don't even dare to go up the city wall. What's the use of 20,000 soldiers?"
"It's the purpose of delaying the enemy's pace!"
Li Gangcheng hurriedly winked at his uncle. Li Quanmu quickly understood what his nephew meant. He wanted to use the 20,000 prefectures and county troops in the city to delay the attack of the Song people and increase time for his escape!
As the governor of a state, Li Quanmu was a little struggling in his heart. It was obvious that the Song army's siege of the city would soon spread throughout the court and the Song people carried official documents from the Song court, and not everyone could forge the documents from the Honglu Temple...
Things are getting worse, and the final result must be that both himself and the entire Li family will be pushed forward as the final scapegoat!
Li Quanmu had already revealed the truth. Everything he did was to save his life, and even brought him and the entire Shicheng. In anger, he thought of the only thing he could do.

The army of the Song Dynasty moved slowly with the sound of drums with extremely strong rhythms. The sound of the neat steps shocked the soldiers and civilians in the stone city. The army of the Song Dynasty cared about formation and cooperation the most, which also made their movements uniform and orders prohibited.
Cavalry was very rare because they relied on ships to transport soldiers, and there was no large number of war horses to use. However, the heavy cavalry of 500 people and the breastplate of 500 people were the elite among the elites of the Song Dynasty.
Since there are few, the quality must be high, which is the only condition for Cai Boqi to choose a soldier.
Many sections of the city wall of the stone city have been collapsed, and the city gate has disappeared without a trace. Due to the huge destructive power, the Goryeo soldiers did not even dare to go forward to block the city gate, for fear that they would be bombed into pieces like the city gate.
The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were advancing, with high tower shields, long swords, sharp spears, and overturned crossbow arrows forming the best formation of killing layer by layer, slowly advancing towards Chushicheng.
But there was almost no resistance along the way, and there were even few crossbow arrows shot out from the city. Judging from the accuracy and strength of these arrow branches, it was obviously a crossbow arrow that the timids mistakenly did.
Finally, when the Song army was about to reach the city wall, some Goryeo soldiers rushed out, not to mention the formation, but even the weapons were all kinds of different types. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty had been maintaining their formation for a long time. The crossbow archers were in the back, and the crossbow arrows shot out were like rain. The Goryeo, who did not have many armor, was instantly nailed to the ground, just like harvested leeks...
The soldiers approaching were chopped into pieces by huge swords. The first time the Koreans saw such a sharp weapon, the huge sword wall was waving without stopping at all, just like a propelling millstone, and anyone who approached would be squeezed into pieces.
The crossbow arrows were constantly shooting, and the Eight Niu Crossbow was pushed up immediately afterwards. The crossbow arrows with one shot and three swords were as big as javelins, and three iron feathers were named like three swords. These huge crossbow arrows were equipped with white phosphorus, tincture oil, and other flammable and explosive objects. The white phosphorus was only filled before the crossbow arrow was shot.
The soldier carefully poured white phosphorus powder into the arrow of the crossbow arrow, plugged the holes with the plug, and the crossbow arrow was quickly shot out. Once the arrow hits the wall, the wooden shaft will shatter and tinder oil will splash out. The white phosphorus will burn and ignite the tinder oil. This clever ignition device is Zeng Gongliangming, who will serve as the supervisor, and is extremely clever.
With a copper whistle sounding, dozens of arrows carrying tincture oil were shot at Shicheng. In this era of more wooden structures, the killing effect of bed crossbows was even better than that of artillery.
Soon, the blazing flames burned in the stone city, and the Koreans were terrified, and these flames were difficult to extinguish with water!
Blood and fire were intertwined, and the footsteps of the Song army were like death-hunting talismans. Li Quanmu stared at Jin Mingqiong tightly and squeezed out a sentence from his teeth and said, "You must come up with a solution!"
