I'm a useless prince, so what if I know a little bit of chemistry?

"What? Damn Lin Fan, he actually dared to send people to attack my Sanguan County!"

When Huangfu Qi heard the news, he became angry and wanted to lead his troops back to Sanguan County immediately.

Huangfu Pengwu stopped Huangfu Qi at once and said to him, "What's the point of you going back now? Sanguan County might have been lost. And don't you understand? Lin Fan's target is not Sanguan County at all, but the food stored there. By the time you rush back, the food will have been burned to ashes."

Huangfu Qi calmed down after hearing this, analyzed the situation carefully, and found that what Huangfu Pengwu said was true.

Lin Fan would definitely not be heading for Sanguan County, and he would not send too many people there, because the army still had to fight here, so they could only go for food and fodder.

If they were going for the food and grass, even if they rushed back now, the food and grass would probably have been burned to ashes.

"So what do you think we should do now?" Huangfu Qi asked.

Huangfu Pengwu pointed at Minjiang Pass and said to Huangfu Qi, "The only way now is to capture Minjiang Pass, take down Lin Fan, and then retake Jinsha River and Jiefeng City. There are still a lot of food and grass there."

Huangfu Qi nodded, and the two of them hit it off immediately.

"Pass on my general's order. Attack the city immediately and make sure to capture Minjiang Pass within two hours." Huangfu Pengwu shouted while standing on the platform.

"Yes!"

Following Huangfu Pengwu's order, everyone started moving.

The movement here was quickly noticed by Lin Fan, whose face looked very unhappy at this moment.

"The other side is about to attack the city. Brothers, cheer up and make sure to defend Minjiang Pass." Lin Fan said with a frown.

"Yes!"

Lin Fan personally stood on the city wall to supervise the battle, waiting for the troops to deploy.

Soon, Huangfu Pengwu's army rushed towards the city wall like locusts.

"Fire arrows!"

At Lin Fan's command, all archers began to shoot arrows, just to disrupt their steps.

However, the number of Huangfu Pengwu's troops was too large. Even if each person shot an arrow, they could only kill some of the vanguard troops and would not have much impact on the main army behind them.

Soon, many soldiers arrived at the foot of the city wall. They set up ladders and were about to climb up the wall.

"Use grenades!" Lin Yifan shouted loudly. After that, Lin Fan pulled out his rifle, aimed at a person under the city wall, and pulled the trigger.

With a bang, the man fell down.

But in a war of this scale, the death or injury of one person is not a big deal.

After Lin Fan gave the order, everyone started throwing grenades down.

However, Lin Fansheng did not have many grenades and explosives, only about one or two hundred in total. If he threw them all down, although it killed many people, it was just a drop in the bucket and was of no use to the large army.

Gradually, people began to climb up the ladder.

Lin Fan stabbed him to death with the Gentleman Sword. At this time, he rolled down the ladder again, taking down many people who were climbing the ladder with him.

But after a while, someone else climbed up the ladder.

Lin Fan had no other choice but to stab with his sword, and he might even try to push the ladder down.

But after pushing the ladder down, they will stand it up again and then continue to climb up.

Finally, Lin Fan felt that using the Gentleman Sword to stab was too slow, so he simply picked up the rolling log and thunder stone that he had prepared long ago and threw it down.

The battlefield was filled with the smell of blood. The corpses under the city wall were almost piled up into a small hill. Some people even began to climb up along the corpses, but they were still unable to break through to the top of the city wall.

Although they are numerous, there are also many Lin Fan people.

Huangfu Pengwu was a little angry when he saw that the city wall could not be breached after a long time, so he said to Huangfu Qi: "You command the whole army here, and I will lead the people to attack the city myself."

After Huangfu Pengwu finished speaking, he did not give Huangfu Qi a chance to refute. He picked up his Fang Tian Hua Ji and rushed towards the city gate.

As he ran, Huangfu Pengwu shouted, "Siege vehicle, follow me to break open the city gate!"

After Huangfu Pengwu finished shouting, hundreds of soldiers immediately rushed forward pushing a siege vehicle.

Huangfu Pengwu also joined in. Because Huangfu Pengwu was very strong and there were many soldiers pushing the siege vehicle, the speed of the engineering vehicle increased a lot.

When Lin Fan saw the siege vehicle on the city wall, he knew that Huangfu Pengwu was planning to break open the city gate.

But Lin Fan had no way out. If he had explosives, he could have thought of using them to blow up the siege vehicle, but Lin Fan had run out of explosives.

Lin Fan was filled with regret at this moment. If he had not used explosives too early, could he have blown up the siege vehicle?

But Lin Fan thought again and found that his idea was a bit naive.

If there had been no explosives just now, the enemy might have rushed up the city wall long ago, and Minjiang Pass would have been lost at that time.

At this point, we can only leave it to fate.

Lin Fan picked up a stone. The stone was not small, as big as a six or seven-year-old child. Lin Fan threw the stone towards the siege vehicle with force.

Lin Fan prayed that this attack would be able to destroy the siege, but in fact it did not work.

Each part of the siege vehicle is extremely large, and some parts are even made entirely of iron, so they cannot be destroyed by a stone.

Sure enough, the stone fell on the siege vehicle and only made a hole in the large piece of wood that was used to hit the city gate, killing many soldiers around it. Apart from that, it was of no use.

After those soldiers were crushed to death, soldiers immediately came to replace them, so the speed of the siege vehicle did not slow down.

Huangfu Pengwu quickly arrived at the city wall with the siege vehicle on his back. Huangfu Pengwu shouted, "Smash the city gate open!"

Many soldiers began to use siege vehicles to ram the city gates, and Lin Fan also commanded the troops to smash them with stones and shoot with bows and arrows in an attempt to stop them.

Of course, Lin Fan still shot and killed quite a few people by doing this, but there were too many people below, and when someone died, someone would immediately take his place.

"Pour it with golden juice!" Zhang Guangzhi shouted from the side.

Lin Fan was stunned. It was not because Lin Fan didn't know what golden juice was, but because Lin Fan knew it, so he was surprised.

"Sir, when did you prepare the golden juice?" Lin Fan looked at Zhang Guangzhi and asked.

"It was prepared a long time ago, but it was still hot at the beginning, so we didn't bring it up," said Zhang Guangzhi.

After Zhang Guangzhi finished speaking, several soldiers carried several large jars and walked towards the city.

There was a disgusting smell coming from the jar. Lin Fan knew what was inside, but he didn't feel disgusted because this thing might not be able to save Minjiang Pass.
