Chapter 291: The cannon opened and blasted his mother
On the other side, Shen Changgong also brought troops to surround Jiulin Villa and began to climb the mountain.
Originally, when they were on the official road, the spies from Jiulin Villa had already discovered them, but they thought they were going to attack Dingcheng, so they just observed them from a distance.
There are many people in the underworld who are good at climbing high trees and stealing things. These spies are very well hidden, and some of them were not even discovered by the scouts of the Yan army.
However, just as the Yan army passed by the mountain of Jiulin Villa, they suddenly made a sharp turn, and the entire army marched quickly and surrounded the mountain quickly.
The thousands of wanderers in Jiulin Villa were shocked when they heard the news.
Leader Xu Kun immediately knew that he had been fooled, but he still had some brains to reach the position of leader.
He heard that when the army was defending on the mountain, they would prepare stones and logs to roll down and hit the enemy, so he also ordered the preparation of these.
The logic is correct, and so is the use of pounding stones and rolling logs, but the question is, will the Yan army give them the time?
After being surrounded by the Yan army, they immediately began to climb the mountain.
This mountain is called a mountain, but it is actually similar to a hill. There are more hills than mountains in the central and southern parts of Kun Country.
The slope is not steep and the mountain is not high.
The Yan army reached the halfway point of the mountain and felt that the distance was about right, so they started moving stones and wood to stabilize the cannons and began to load shells into them.
Shen Changgong, Gongsun Wan'er, Tu Que Ling, Mei Yan Fairy and others, under the protection of the army, looked up.
Standing at this position, you can directly see the villa opposite.
Fairy Meiyan looked at the cannons and sighed,
"Tsk, I've imagined countless times the scene of wiping out the Mieyan Society's headquarters. I imagined myself leading a large group of Jianghu heroes, fearlessly attacking the enemy headquarters, fighting the enemy to the death, with swords flashing and blood staining the rivers and lakes. It was a sad and beautiful scene.
I also thought about leading the Yan army to attack the enemy, fighting in the military formation, and the battle between officers and soldiers and martial arts heroes. The officers and soldiers were slaughtered and defeated, and I turned the tide, killing the enemy with my own strength, fighting a bloody battle with the enemy leader to the end, and finally died of exhaustion.
But I never imagined that destroying the enemy headquarters would be so simple in reality. "
After hearing what Fairy Meiyan said, Shen Changgong shrugged his shoulders and laughed,
"You're so immature! You're already 25, but you're still acting like a 15 or 16-year-old kid, still dreaming of personal heroism?
It's still bloody and beautiful, hahahaha..."
"Stop laughing!"
Fairy Mei Yan gritted her teeth in anger, swung her pink fist, and hit Shen Changgong hard.
"Is it funny? It's rare for me to have a good chat with you, and all you do is laugh at me."
Seeing that the young lady was angry and her face was embarrassed, Shen Changgong stopped laughing, touched her ponytail lovingly, and said,
"The Southern King taught me a lesson: if you can solve a problem with the simplest method, don't use a complicated one. The more complicated it is, the more likely you are to make mistakes.
Especially when we have the advantage, we directly use the simplest and most brutal method to solve the problem, which actually has miraculous effects.
When artillery was developed, the form of warfare changed.
No matter what military formations or city walls, no matter what martial arts masters there are, there is nothing that cannot be solved by one round of bombardment. If there is, then two rounds will do."
After saying that, Shen Changgong shouted to the gunner in front,
"Ruan Weiba! Are you ready?"
Ruan Weiba quickly turned around and stood at attention.
"Your Majesty! We are ready!"
"Open the cannon and blast his mother!"
"Hahahahaha..."
There was laughter all around.
"Order!"
Ruan Weiba shouted loudly, then lit the fuse with his own hands and fired it together with other artillery pieces!
Because of his incredible luck and outstanding military achievements, and because he had appeared in front of the prince and the prince knew his name, Ruan Weiba was promoted to the leader of the artillery group of the Shenji Camp.
Although he was only in charge of ten people, due to the special nature of the Shenji Camp, he received the salary and treatment of a centurion.
Boom boom boom!
Following a round of artillery fire, five shells whizzed down into the enemy's headquarters.
The houses in the villa immediately collapsed, the walls crumbled, and countless screams were heard.
"Keep going! Blast these shameless villains to death!"
Shen Changgong shouted orders, and the five cannons prepared to fire again.
After a minute of preparation, the artillery fired again, making the enemy cry for help.
Soon, those martial artists who wanted to destroy the Yan Society realized that they could no longer defend the city because the Yan army was superior to them in both numbers and weapons.
Their only chance of survival is to rely on their martial arts to fight their way out.
At the call of their leader, they gathered in the middle of the villa. When their leader Xu Kun was about to lead them down, a row of shells suddenly fell from the sky and hit the middle of the yard.
Boom boom boom!
Following another loud noise, the Mieyanhui Rangers suffered heavy losses.
If they were scattered, the five shells would not kill many people, but they were too concentrated, and the leader was giving a speech to encourage people, so the shells fell directly into the crowd.
After a period of earthquakes, many people could no longer hear any sound.
Xu Kun's head was buzzing and his ears seemed to be deaf, so he was lifted up by his men.
He looked at the men in front of him, their mouths opening and closing, not knowing what they were saying, and then he shouted,
"What did you say? Speak louder!"
"Chief, the Yan army is surrounding us from three sides. There are too many of them. We are just a bunch of people and can't stop them!"
"Nonsense, 50,000 people against 5,000 people, it's a wonder they can stop it!"
Xu Kun stood up with a dusty face, looking at the villa which had become a ruin, and the Yan army coming to kill them from a distance. Seeing his own side being defeated, he felt hopeless for a moment.
"Are these the officers and soldiers? Are these the officers and soldiers..."
Xu Kun muttered to himself, saying that they usually called themselves knights and looked down on the officers and soldiers, thinking that they were all good-for-nothings.
But now, when he saw a martial artist slashing a soldier with his sword, without even breaking the opponent's armor, the man was pierced by several spears.
He then realized that the so-called Jianghu was nothing but a group of rabble, a loose group of loose sand. If they fought against the government soldiers, let alone defeating them, they might not even be able to exchange one for one.
"Chief, what should we do?"
The men shouted and asked.
Xu Kun came back to his senses and yelled,
"Everyone, follow me! Shen Changgong of the Yan army is at the foot of the mountain. Charge over and kill him, and we'll have our money!"
"Come on!"
Xu Kun led the remaining members and ran wildly down the mountain path.
At the foot of the mountain, halfway up the mountain, Shen Changgong's large flag stood there.
Xu Kun even saw Shen Changgong wearing silver armor and riding a tall horse.
His target was that person.
However, what greeted him was a dense rain of arrows from the sky.
