Chapter 573
574 , 10,000 Cannons Fired
This was the first time they saw the power of artillery.
And it’s still a full 30,000 artillery pieces.
At this time, in their ears, there was only the continuous sound of explosions, and the companions who were affected by the explosion and screamed in pain.
However, under the threat of beatings and scoldings from the middle and low-level generals, these people finally came back to their senses.
“Yes, yes, these devils will kill us once they come in!
“Not only us, but also our relatives!”
“We are fighting not only for God, but also for ourselves and our loved ones!”
Thinking of their wives, sons and daughters, these terrified soldiers stood up tremblingly, then carried stones from the rear and began to reinforce the city wall.
“continue!”
Looking at the scene on the city wall, Liu Zhao said expressionlessly.
He saw it.
Every second, hundreds of Western coalition soldiers were blasted to shreds by artillery.
He also saw countless people howling.
But Liu Zhao understood a truth.
Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.
Continuous shelling is the best way to attack at present, so that the Han army will not suffer any casualties, and the consumption is nothing more than some ammunition.
As for ammunition and various firearms and artillery, Liu Zhao did not know how much he opened from the usual gift bag.
However, what Liu Zhao did not expect was that the enemy’s determination to resist was extremely determined.
“Your Majesty, the shelling has been going on for half a day, should we continue the shelling?”
Zhuge Liang asked respectfully.
“It’s been half a day?”
Liu Zhao came to the bow and looked at the city wall ahead.
At this time, the city wall can no longer be used to describe it.
The artillery of the Han army has not known how many holes have been blasted on the city wall, and how many sections have collapsed.
But every time, Western coalition soldiers risked their lives to fortify the city wall with stones and fill the gaps.
The bodies of many Western soldiers were mixed with stones and became part of the city wall.
How many people died?
Although there is no specific number, Liu Zhao also has an approximate number in mind.
About two hundred thousand!
A full 200,000 Western Allied soldiers died under the artillery, however, they had not surrendered.
In the end, Liu Zhao finally understood why the other party was still resisting.
“It was so.
Liu Zhao shook his head speechlessly.
Still the same old school.
They portrayed Han Jun as a murderous demon without blinking an eye. As for Liu Zhao, he was described as a heinous great devil. According to their description, it is estimated that King Zhou would be scared to tears when he heard it.
“Looks like there can only be another way.”
Liu Zhao smiled slightly.
Soon, Liu Zhao gave an order to stop the shelling.
Then the army landed.
After three days, the Han army’s three million troops finally landed.
“Huh, the Han army has finally stopped shelling!”
“This damn artillery, I don’t know how many troops 040 killed us! 99
“I heard that the corpses in the city are almost piled up into mountains…”
“Mounds of mountains? Why not burn them?”
“Think about it, there are two million troops in the city, and how much food and grass can the city maintain for the two million troops?”
“You mean…”””
“Shh, be quiet…
This is good news for the Western coalition soldiers guarding the southern city wall, but the news of the lack of food in the city has already spread among the soldiers.
This is not surprising.
In ancient times, there were few large cities with a population of two million.
Not to mention that Constantinople is now in the midst of the war, and the supplies from outside cannot be transported at all.
