The people behind the ladders and the siege vehicles were all cautious.

They held up shields, in order to reduce the damage to them from the arrows dropped on the city walls.

But for all Li Zitong's troops, a shocking thing happened.

It stands to reason that even if the cavalry came to suppress the fire, or something.

As the defender of the city, at the very least, it will keep shooting arrows down.

No matter how they raised their troops, they got close to a very close position, but they still didn't see Da Sui's troops popping up and shooting arrows.

Because when the cavalry came to prepare to mount and shoot to suppress, Laizhen had already given a death order to the people below.

"Tell everyone, don't hit the cavalry! Let their infantry approach, and don't expose the power of the musket for the time being!

He had already delivered the news before the cavalry came.

This is also the ability to play on the spot as a defender of the city.

Lai Nu'er, who stood on his side and followed his son's every move, nodded slightly.

There is no problem in doing so, and the son's performance so far is quite remarkable.

With muskets and artillery, there must be no problem in defending the city, so Lai Huer let his son command.

Finally, let's see if the enemy can meet expectations, and then discuss whether he can be the main general of the Great Sui.

After all, what the Sui Dynasty lacked now was the generals who led the troops to fight.

Soldiers, if they are gone, they can be recruited, and strong men can be captured.

But without a general who leads the army, there is really no hope at all. This is the most common sentence since ancient times.

Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.

Laizhen ordered not to hit the cavalry, which is also very understandable.

The cavalry moves fast, and these soldiers have only received one or two hundred rounds of musket training.

The possibility of being able to hit directly is too small, and even if it hits.

It may also expose the power of the musket in advance, scare the opponent away, and not achieve the best effect of annihilating the enemy.

So Laihu'er was very satisfied with Laizheng's order, in his opinion.

Even if he is commanding here now, he will give the same order.

"What's the situation? What's going on~||?'

On the Chu army's side, Li Zitong's subordinates were all dumbfounded.

Except for those who led the troops to attack the city head, other military divisions and major generals watched nervously at their soldiers on the battlefield near the king tent.

After pondering for a moment, they started talking.

"Who can explain! Why didn't the generals defending the city in the Sui Dynasty release arrows?"

"Where's their repeating crossbow? Where's their car crossbow?"

"Could it be Yu Wenhua and the chaos that destroyed all these things? Or hurt them?"

"Impossible, then Emperor Sui is not a fool, if that's the case, it's better to run away!

"I think it's a scam, what do you think?"

"Is it because there are not many bows and arrows, do you want to wait for our army to approach before shooting arrows? Do more damage? 35'

Everyone talks to each other, chatting and discussing non-stop, but no one can guess why the Sui Dynasty is like this.

The silence on the city wall was a bit too much at this time.

The Chu army's cavalry had already approached very close, and had thrown more than three rounds of arrows toward the city wall.

Still didn't see the other side showing up, after the siege started, it was as if all the troops on the city wall had disappeared.

To know that after three rounds of arrow rain, the cavalry who control the strings needs to adjust and rest.

No one can draw the bow all the time, and it is very laborious to aim and force.

Even a well-fed cavalryman will have a gap period to rest after releasing 7 to 10 arrows in a row.

Therefore, in order to be able to continuously release arrows, they usually continue after 3 consecutive rounds, rest for a moment, and then continue.

This does allow the muscles to relax and allow the body to supply the energy it needs.

"How could this be... not right..."

Li Zitong just thought in his heart that his identity is not suitable for participating in the discussion.

Although he didn't speak at the moment, his face was ashen as he sat there.

But all the answers may be known only after the ladder is built on the city wall, right?

He thought so.

Seeing those Chu soldiers who were cautiously carrying cloud ladders, they did not follow the army to shoot arrows down the city.

At this moment, he also directly put down Mu Dun, straightened his body, and ran towards the city wall shouting.

The distance of 4 kilometers, the time they had expected to reach the bottom of the city wall, was shortened by half.

"Come on General, it's almost time!" An infantryman carefully showing his head and observing the other side.

In a few breaths, the fastest group of people on the other side will probably put the ladder on the city wall!

Now all the troops on the city wall are waiting for the first shot.

As soon as the sound of the first shot is heard, everyone will start firing freely.

"Hmm! Hit me!" Laizheng also came over with a musket, aiming and firing at the person closest to the city wall.

boom!

The huge sound of the musket, accompanied by a large number of black flames near the muzzle, gave the first signal of the army.

All the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty took the sound of the first shot as their order.

Towards the wall, those approaching rebels began to fire freely.

"Ah! What is this?

The people under the city wall, basically, a lot of people will fall after a round of gunshots.

They don't even know what's going on?

This is completely different from the previous siege!

The methods used by the previous defenders were similar throughout the ages.

Nothing more than arrows, stones, bricks, boiling water, gold juice, kerosene and the like.

Why is Jiangdu City so evil? The sound and movement of the musket made Li Zitong's rebels terrified.

I just watched helplessly as someone fell, blood rushing and the like, and I couldn't see what was hurting people.

"`"Is it thunder and lightning? Demon magic?"

"What's the situation! What's the sound! 35

"What does the black smoke mean?"

Looking at the Chu army camp from a distance, everyone saw this situation.

The shocked jaws were about to fall, and some people stood there at a loss.

So far, they have not seen anyone climb the ladder.

Not many ladders have even been set up. This situation is too strange. Some veterans, who have been mixed soldiers for decades, have never seen such a terrifying sight.

(Really) Under the city wall, in less than a moment, three layers of corpses have been stacked.

Just a moment ago, the Chu army continued to rely on it far and wide.

They thought that even powerful weapons, or things that could not be explained, were limited in quantity.

Seeing that this huge sound gradually diminished, I thought that the Sui Dynasty had used up all these things.

They mustered up the courage to continue rushing towards this side. How could they know that this was just the Sui Dynasty army so as not to waste bullets.

Changed the order, the reason for ordering to fire only when the enemy is close to about 50 steps.

Therefore, after they approached, a dense net of firepower came down again.

Even the cavalry were affected. Previously, Laizhen ordered the cavalry not to be attacked, and no one dared to do so.

Now there is only shooting, no one can control this.

Some troops with first-class marksmanship started shooting at the cavalry on horses!
