Wu Chaoqun, Qi Ying and others who were under the city suddenly became furious when they saw that the opposing guard actually opened his bow and fired cold arrows at the envoy.

This lack of basic etiquette of not killing envoys made the soldiers under the city angry.

"General Su, your strategy of inviting surrender doesn't seem to be working?" Lu Chaoqun asked with a smile on his face.

He wanted to show Su Chen's face in person. After all, Su Chen had always been admired by everyone for his clever calculations and scheming skills.

Lu Chaoqun felt great pressure and threat. Now it was rare for him to laugh at Su Chen's incompetence in front of all the soldiers, the lord, and the civil and military ministers. This had a slight impact on Su Chen's image as a versatile civil and military man.

It also tells everyone, letting them see that Su Chen is not omnipotent, and his strategies sometimes don't work, so everyone should not be too obsessed with trusting him.

This is Lu Chaoqun's mentality at this time.

There were also generals on Lu Chaoqun's side who seemed to be mocking. The envoys they sent were all shot and attacked by arrows. This was a loss of face and proved that the other party would not surrender at all. So Su Chen mobilized the troops and sent people to invite them.

The Lord and the civil and military officials came to visit, but it didn't work. Isn't this a problem with the tactics?

When Su Chen heard General Lu's question, he also smiled slightly and replied: "General Lu, don't be impatient. All this is within Su's expectation. I think the Wuyue Kingdom has been established for decades, and there are still grain, grass and several grains in the city."

With tens of thousands of elite soldiers, there must be someone who will lead the battle and someone who will surrender. King Qian Chu of Wu and Yue must be hesitating. The person who fired the arrow this time was the war party deliberately sabotaging the negotiations, and that is why he fired cold arrows to cause destruction."

"As long as we suddenly launch a fierce attack, frightening the main war faction at the top of the city, and making Qian Chu and the main surrender faction even more frightened, King Wu Yue will definitely come out of the city and surrender within a few days."

"It's easy to say, how to intimidate the city, is it still a regular siege? We have been attacking for a month and have not intimidated the opponent. Will the attack be effective for a few more days?" Gao Fuquan, the number one general under Lu Chaoqun

Suddenly asked in a cold voice.

This Gao Fuquan is Lu Chaoqun's direct general. He has followed him for twenty years. This time he led troops into Wuyue. He has made many military exploits and is even more arrogant. He feels that their role is far greater than that of Su Chen, Qi Ying and others, so he said

That is to say, he is presumptuous and oversteps his bounds.

Su Chen glanced at him and said coldly: "Of course it's not a conventional method. If we continue to attack the city as before, it won't scare the Wu and Yue warriors. How can they surrender?"

When everyone heard Su Chen's words, they seemed to have whetted their appetites, and they were all curious, what method was Su Chen going to use?

Lu Chaoqun laughed and said: "General Su, don't be too secretive. If you have a good deterrent strategy, you might as well tell it so that the lord, ministers and generals can also open their eyes. If it is as you expected, it can deter the other party,

General Su will be the first to get King Qian Chu of Wu and Yue to leave the city and surrender."

At this time, Lu Chaoqun began to urge, covering up the tit-for-tat atmosphere with laughter, hoping to resolve the unhappiness before the formation, and at the same time, it was also a way to provoke Su Chen.

"General Jing Hong listened to the order and led his men to prepare the whirlwind cannon and use the latest thunderbolt to give Wu Yue a slap in the face!"

"Got the order!" Jing Hong rode forward to make arrangements. He came from the guardianship of Citong City and brought some thunder cannonballs that were composed of black powder and tin cans developed by Su Chen in Quanzhou.

Although you can't use cannons for bombardment now, you can use the trebuchet cyclone cannon to ignite the sky-shattering thunder and smash it directly on the city. When it explodes, there will be iron sheets, iron beads, etc. flying inside, which can cause injuries.

, destroying an enemy army.

Dozens of trebuchets were set up, and then they ignited the thunderbolts and threw them out quickly.

Boom boom boom!

These sky-shaking thunderbolts fell on the city walls, city towers, and inside the city walls, and suddenly there was a huge explosion. It contained improved black powder, which was very powerful. Iron pieces flew everywhere, and everyone within a ten-meter radius was affected.

Ah! Ah! Ah!

Screams rang out, and many people fell to the ground after being hit by shrapnel, with blood splattering everywhere.

The entire tower shook, and even a corner of it collapsed.

Qian Chu and the civil and military officials were hiding in the city tower. There was an iron net in front of them to block the cold arrows. However, when they saw the explosions everywhere, the sound was like thunder, and the city tower shook like an earthquake. They all felt frightened and turned pale.

"What is this? What weapons did Hei Yun use?"

"I don't know, it's like an explosive, much more powerful than old gunpowder."

Gunpowder has been around for a long time, but it was mostly used for firecrackers and not much used in the military. Moreover, the power of the old gunpowder was limited and not as good as the new and improved black powder.

The wild bombing had already caused heavy losses to the soldiers at the top of the city. Qian Chu and the civil and military officials were also frightened, and they all fled down the tower and returned to the inner city.

At this time, the sound of fighting broke out outside the city, and the Heiyundu army launched an attack on the city. Their morale was like a rainbow, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.

With this move, Su Chen knocked down the mountain and shocked the tiger. He showed himself as a saint in front of others, and his prestige in the army was even higher.

Even Lu Chaoqun, Qi Ying, Lu Zheng, Wei Dongqiang, Gao Fuquan and other generals had never seen this thing before, so they guessed that it might be Su Chen's latest invention.

This Su Chen is amazing. He is versatile in both civil and military affairs. Not only is he proficient in calculations, but he also knows how to investigate and create. It’s hard not to be convinced!

Yang Ling'er, Han Xizai and others were all smiling. Su Chen would never let them down at any time!

This trump card was played unexpectedly. Not only the soldiers of Wu Yue were intimidated, but also the soldiers of Heiyundu were shocked. There was such a powerful weapon of mass destruction, so it would be easier to attack the city.

The morale of the army was high, and general attacks were launched on all sides of the city gates.

………

Qian Chu went back to discuss it again, and this time more people were in favor of surrender, exceeding two-thirds of the total.

"Heiyun has such a powerful siege weapon, which can intimidate the three armies and suppress our army. It is difficult to resist!"

"Nowadays, soldiers on the city have suffered heavy casualties, which has a great impact on the morale of the soldiers and civilians. Instead of waiting for a few days to be breached and everyone to be killed, it is better to surrender earlier and be exempted from guilt."

"I suggest that for the sake of the people of Hangzhou City, the tens of thousands of soldiers, and the stability of the world, we should surrender as soon as possible!"

"I also suggest that for the sake of the people in the city, surrender!"

These ministers never talked about their own interests and safety. They spoke only for the sake of the people in the city and the stability of the world.

As the saying goes, those who are righteous are mostly dog-slaughters, and those who are unkind are mostly scholars.

At a critical moment, some civil servants will think of self-preservation and surrender in order to protect themselves, their families, and the interests of their official positions. However, they must proceed from the righteousness, even if they are selfish, they must find an excuse.

At this time, the main fighting faction was not so determined, because with the cooperation of these siege weapons and the army outside the city, the city's destruction was just around the corner.

At present, the city has suffered heavy casualties and its morale is low. It is clear that the defenders will not be able to hold back for much longer.

After a night of serious consideration, Qian Chu worried about the civil and military officials the next day and decided to surrender with tears in his eyes.
