lazy tang

Chapter 880
The siege warfare in the era of cold weapons was very tragic. With incendiary bombs and bombs, the siege warfare will be even more tragic.

Since the first day of the siege of Antioch City, the city has been filled with the smell of barbecue.Often dozens of corpses are tangled together and burned to a dry, human-shaped coke.The stones under the city wall were also charred black, with yellow corpse oil stained on them.

The flies landed on the corpse oil, sucking greedily.But it is too difficult to fly again.Soon, the city wall was covered by flies.Then, those charred corpses were covered with white maggots.

The helpless Yunhao can only let people throw down the kerosene and burn it again!
Flies in large numbers can spread disease, and these little things can contaminate water and food with impunity.Only fire and flames can deal with them!
There are more fires and raging flames, and the direct consequence is that the city walls become weaker.Human oil will make the fire extremely violent and burn for a long time.The huge stone city wall has been burned for several days, and it has become crisp.What's more, there are constant death squads rushing up with gunpowder bags.Trying to blast a gap in the city wall, the number of big cannibals has an absolute advantage.As long as the city walls collapse, their advantages can be brought into play.

The big cannibal is crazy, and no less than tens of thousands of lives have been filled in for a single gap.But those crazy believers kept rushing upwards.Those coke-like compatriots under their feet were crushed to pieces by countless pairs of big feet.Even the hardest skull only makes a light "click" when it is crushed.

Then they were engulfed in the fire, becoming new charred corpses.Then they were also trampled to pieces and merged with their predecessors, regardless of each other and you and me.

Yunhao seemed helpless about this, and the number of bombs was very small.Moreover, it is extremely difficult to supply, which makes Yunhao have to think twice when using it.The weather is fine, and the airship can be used.But the problem is that the big cannibal learned to be smart, and arranged a circle of hot air balloons around his camp.

These things have no power and cannot participate in the offense.It can be used for defense, but it is still good. The thick crossbow bolts on it have an unusual lethality against the huge airship.Especially when those crossbow bolts are ignited and turned into rockets, their lethality will be even more fucking powerful.

The huge airship is flying in the air, even if it is moving, it is still the target of those crossbow arrows.The helpless airship can only stay far away from those hot air balloons, and the ideal result of the two sides shooting each other is to die together.

Yun Hao didn't want to exchange his soldiers with those stupid cannibals.

There are more and more ashes and charred corpses under the city wall, and then their efforts have been rewarded!
After ten days of fierce offensive and defensive battles, the walls of Antioch finally collapsed.

The caliph rode on a tall horse, and looked at the distant Antioch wall, which seemed to jump up.The soldiers of the Tang army standing on that section of the city wall flew up as if they had grown wings.

The sound was not loud, but dull, and the shock wave generated after the explosion made it impossible to breathe for a moment.The war horses wailed and kept walking in place. The shaking ground made them feel extremely uncomfortable. Seeing the gravel falling not far in front of the horses, the caliph shouted excitedly: "Ah, that, that, that What!"

Cheers like a tsunami erupted from the cannibal army formation, and countless people raised their weapons and screamed like madmen.The death squads have already killed with red eyes.A gap more than ten feet long was blasted open in the city wall of Antioch, and a flood of Dashi soldiers rushed in through the gap.

Muhammad took the lead and got into the smoky place. When they reappeared, they were already in the city. The tall city wall turned into rubble and scattered in the city of Anshi. A group of Tang army soldiers lay quietly In the pile of rocks, whether they were injured or alive, they seemed to be resigned to fate. A soldier of the Tang army dragging his broken leg and crawling between the stones saw the big cannibal rushing in. He howled and picked up a piece of it. Stones were thrown.

Yun Hao shook his head helplessly, he had tried his best.But there were still huge casualties in his own army, which he saw very clearly just now.On that section of the city wall, there were nearly a hundred soldiers of the Tang army.This time, I am afraid that no one will survive.

"Block the gap with fire!" Yun Hao gave an order, and immediately a trebuchet dropped countless incendiary bombs in the gap.Thousands of Dashi soldiers rushed in, and instantly turned into a bunch of burning men who only knew how to scream and burn.

Their cries were so miserable that even the stones were burning at the gap.This place has become a hell ruled by flames. This place does not belong to the living but to evil spirits. This is not the human world, but this is hell.

The caliph's eyes suddenly shrank like needle noses, and the ecstasy just now made him almost forget that he just opened a gap in the Antioch wall.With a gap, it is absolutely impossible to conquer a city as large as Antioch.

"Throw trebuchets at the wall, bring more gunpowder up. We need a wider gap! Brothers of the Holy Order, let us charge that gap one more time. One more time, and the Prophet will see your bravery. Your souls will go to heaven, where there are milk and honey and rivers, 99 chaste virgins waiting for you.

Brothers of the Holy Church, go! Harifa waved the scimitar in his hand, and personally encouraged the fanatical believers of the holy religion to charge. He knew that as long as the Tang people were defeated, the Middle East would be his own, and Jerusalem would be next after conquering Antioch.

As long as the holy city is back in the hands of Mao Zedong, he will be blessed with infinite religious prestige.The entire adult world will prostrate at his feet, and at that time he will become the real king.

As for the corpses who died on the side of the road for their own kingly road.The caliphate can't control so much, and it will be exhausted once it succeeds.Everyone will only remember the famous general, but not those unknown people who fell on the road.

The fanaticism of the believers was ignited again, and many people rushed to the city of Antioch frantically carrying gunpowder bags.With a push of his hands against the city wall, the person next to him lit the gunpowder.

Explosions sounded one after another, and the damaged city wall was expanded little by little.Human lives are so worthless at this time, and some have been burned to coke.Some were blown to pieces, and no broken bricks and tiles could be seen on the ground of the gap.All are ashes and charred corpses!

The attack reached its climax just after noon.Under the attack of human life, the gap is getting wider and wider.At first it was only a dozen feet long, but now it has reached more than twenty feet, and there is a growing trend.

The Caliph also went all out and stood in front of the battle to boost morale.Seeing the caliph personally supervising the battle behind the Holy Cult, those fanatics became even more fanatical.They demolished the city walls like crazy, slashed with knives, picked with hands, and bit with teeth!
Khalifa looked at all this with tears in his eyes, he was safe.It's safe even before the battle.He was protected by a hot air balloon over his head, and he was out of range of the trebuchet.The Tang people couldn't hurt themselves, but those soldiers had to risk their lives to realize the Caliph's great ambitions, braving the sea of ​​fire and the rain of arrows.

Yunhao stood on the city wall, looking at the Shaobao guy who was riding a beautiful horse.Every time he swung the saber in his hand, those Dashi soldiers would cheer like the waves of the sea.

"Is that the man-eating caliph?" Yun Hao pointed to the guy waving his saber in the distance, and asked the Arab elders beside him.He was a native of Antioch and had met the Caliph before.

"Yes! Your Excellency the Duke, that is the Caliph himself. Although I am old, I will not admit my mistake. Only he can make the soldiers so fanatical." The Arab elder looked at it for a while before he said with certainty.

"He is really a fearless guy. He thought I only had trebuchets?" Yun Hao shook his head with a smile. The ignorance made Caliph make a huge mistake.He thought that the only threats to him were airships, or the catapults erected on the city wall.

But in Yunhao's pouch, there was another very deadly weapon.Although the number of such weapons is very small!

The two cannons had been brought up long ago, and now Yun Hao gave the order.The gunners of the two artillery guns began to aim, and the theoretical firing range of the artillery could reach five miles.But at that distance, accuracy is out of the question.

The gunner calculated that the caliph was two and a half miles away from the city wall.This distance is not far, but it is definitely not close.It is still quite difficult to hit accurately.

"Use flower bombs!" Seeing the distressed gunner, Yun Hao issued a new order.

The gunners were stunned when they heard that flowering ammunition was going to be used.This kind of shell is very difficult to manufacture, and there are only five in the Western Expeditionary Army.It seems that Grandpa Guo was really in a hurry this time, and actually used a flower bomb.

The gunner reloaded at the fastest speed, and the gunner was nervously calculating the angle.They are all high-achieving students who graduated from the academy, and they can already use the most basic trigonometric functions to calculate the impact point of the shell.

After adjusting the angle, the gunner took a look at Yunhao.

"Let it go! As long as you kill him, it doesn't matter if you shoot all five shells." Yun Hao snapped, knowing that the Caliph is the soul of the entire army.As long as he is killed, the army on the opposite side will not be attacked by the Tang army, and they will collapse by themselves.

Their denominations are so many, and their previous conflicts are so deep.If you want to knead together and fight, only the Caliph can do it.

The gunner once again determined the angle of the artillery, and the gunner ignited the fuze with an order.The fuze was burning "呲" and "呲", bursting out brilliant sparks.

"Boom" and "Boom" the two cannons made loud noises one after the other, and Yun Hao watched nervously with his binoculars.Two clouds of smoke rose from the caliph's position.

"Load! Load!" shouted the gunner, scratching his neck.

Yun Hao clearly saw that the cannonball exploded in front of the Caliph's eyes.Although he didn't hit the Caliph directly, this guy must be bad.The cannibals around him rushed towards the Caliph like a tide.Yun Hao felt that it would be a good thing to let them trample the caliph to death.

The gunners finished loading as fast as they could. They swore they had never loaded shells so fast in their entire lives.

"Boom" and "boom" were two more cannon blasts, and Yun Hao saw two clouds of smoke rising from the crowd again.This time was different from the last time, with the explosion and the broken limbs of the human body flying all over the sky.

"Okay!" Yun Hao shook his head and ordered helplessly.

Harry found that he was dead when he was dead. If he was not dead, it would be impossible to blow him up.

What Yun Hao said was right, the caliph was rescued back to the distant camp as quickly as possible.

The shell did not hit the caliph directly, but many fragments from the explosion of the shell were embedded in the caliph's body.He was bleeding all over his body, and he didn't know how many wounds there were.

The beautiful breastplate was shot through three large holes, and blood was gushing out from the holes.The attendant wanted to cover it with his hand, but no matter how he tried to cover it, he couldn't cover it.

The Caliph's face was as white as a sheet of paper, and his eyes were half-closed.If it wasn't for the ups and downs of the chest, it would be no different from a dead person.

The imperial doctor quickly stripped off all the clothes on the caliph, and washed the blood on his body with water.

There are many wounds on the body, the small ones are only the size of thumbs.The big wound was open like a child's mouth, and the opened muscles were so red that it was scary to look at.

"Ah! Cough! Cough! Cough!" The caliph seemed to want to speak, but he started coughing as soon as he opened his mouth.Every time I cough, a mouthful of blood spurts out.

"If he dies, he will be buried with you." Muhammad, who hurried back, grabbed the doctor by the neck and shouted.

"Then you kill me, no one can heal such an injury." The imperial doctor said helplessly, he was a doctor, not a god.

"You...!" Muhammad could only helplessly let go of the doctor.In fact, it is a miracle that Harry is still alive now.

The Caliph stretched out his bloody hand and grabbed Muhammad's arm.

The force of catching people is very similar to that of a drowning person who has met a savior, and the veins in his hands have collapsed.That hand should be called a claw now!
Muhammad's claws hurt so much that he wanted to get rid of it but dared not.Caliph's eyes widened sharply, and he stared straight at Muhammad.His eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, and his body straightened up.

"Uh...!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the caliph lay heavily on the gorgeous Persian carpet.

The hand holding Mohammed's arm dropped powerlessly.

Muhammad's heart went cold, and the caliph died.The great caliph died just like that...!
What about the hundreds of thousands of troops here?What about Antioch City, which has been attacked for many days and paid a heavy price?The caliph left like this, what to do with the position he left behind.Who will be the next master of the *** world!
No one could solve one puzzle after another, and Muhammad stood there in a daze.Without paying attention, many people in the tent ran out.In less than a while, news of the Caliph's death spread throughout the cannibal's camp.
