Chapter 240
The sound of thunder was lit up above the Flag Pass, the horns shook the sky, and the soldiers shouted loudly. With the call, countless long arrows roared out, and the dark clouds formed by the arrows coming and going almost obscured the sky.
"Boom boom boom..." The huge stone fell from high altitude with an unstoppable momentum, and the sound of hitting the ground was deafening.
Blood spread everywhere, and every round of bombing will inevitably add a few resentful souls under the stone. In the face of these powerful attacks that humans cannot resist, being killed by one blow is a very good result. The worst thing is that they are smashed to lack of limbs and short bodies.
Yang Ang shouted at his sergeant at the top of his lungs. His expression had become a little deformed and his forehead was covered with sweat. Since our army had just arrived at the pass, the heavy responsibility of the Cao army's attack was still taken on by Yang Ang's army.
However, this defensive battle is really hard to compliment. Yang Angjun's defense has no sense of layering, and it is completely inadequate to divide the labor and cooperation of soldiers before the pass, especially the defense of the thunder chariot throwing stones is extremely inadequate.
The soldiers under Yang Ang had already developed a great sense of fear at Cao's army's throwing stones. When they saw big stones flying over, they would run around like birds and beasts.
I stood in front of the auxiliary wall, staring at the killing battlefield in front of me motionlessly. From time to time, there were big rocks, feather arrows fell from a place not far in front of me, and the breath of blood filled my nose.
The long-lost flavor of the battlefield.
After resting for two years, I haven't been on the battlefield. The cruel scene in front of me not only did not make me uncomfortable, but instead felt a passionate feeling.
"General, the thunder chariot used by Cao Jun himself is much farther than the thunder chariot given to Zhang Lu and Sun... General!" Zhu Huan stood behind me, observing the trajectory of the stone flying, frowned and said, "These thunder chariots were launched on the ground.
The maximum range can reach about 280 steps to 300 steps, which is 3 or 40 steps further than the Thunderbolt car sent by Cao Cao.
With Cao Cao's treacherous and sloppy personality, he could never give his best things to others, even his "ally".
However, the Cao Jun thunder chariot, which has always been rampant, has to hit the iron plate today.
I turned my head and not far behind, 4,50 new yellow Pili vehicles are being quickly assembled and debugged.
The battle between the Thunder Cars is about to begin, and I guess my old Taishan will be greatly surprised.
"General, be careful!" Amid Zhu Huan's slightly terrified call, a large stone weighing 5,60 kilograms unexpectedly smashed into the position where I stood.
This stone has obviously exceeded the normal range of Cao Jun's thunderbolt chariot, and is at least 2 or 30 steps further than the position where other stones fell.
Seeing that the stone was about to come, Zhu Huan and several of my personal soldiers hurriedly rushed forward, trying to block the big stone for me.
My face did not change, and my energy flowed. In a blink of an eye, the snake spear that was inserted into the ground beside me was already in my hand.
Countless airflows attached to the tip of the spear that was bent into a snake-shaped spear and kept circling at an extremely fast speed. I shouted lightly. The snake spear pierced out like an electric shock. In an instant, the strong airflow gathered and contracted into a little, extending forward along the spear tip of the spear.
"Peng~~!" The snake spear stabbed the center of the big stone and released the strongest force in an instant. After the loud bang, a cloud of smoke dispersed in front of me.
The complete big stone exploded into countless tiny pieces in a moment. The gravel that had not yet disappeared even wiped out a soldier's cheek.
Everyone around was shocked by this scene. For a moment, everyone stopped moving and turned their eyes to the diffuse smoke.
From Sergeant Yang Angdi, you can even hear the clear sound of swallowing saliva.
"General, are you okay?" Zhu Huan was obviously relieved. His voice asked with a slight trembling voice.
"Nothing!" I casually inserted the snake spear back to the original place, and I looked at the Cao Jun thunder chariot position in the distance with a expressionless face.
Did the big stone just now have an accident or was it that Cao's thunderbolt chariot already reached such a range? If it were the latter, it would be not very good.
After observing for a while, my doubts were eliminated. The moment just now was purely an accident in Cao's operation. Although the range increased by 30 steps, the price was the damage to the Pili car.
"General. All forty-six thunder chariots have been assembled!" Commander Liu Qi came to me and reported respectfully.
"Proofread the distance. Kill Cao's pili chariot first!" I nodded and said in a deep voice, "Wolf Fang Camp, cover the pili chariot convoy!"
.
Amid the surprise eyes of Yang Ang’s soldiers, Liu Qi stopped shouting and issued an attack order.
The 46 thunderbolt chariots lined up with the pass fortifications and the mountains threw 46 large rocks into the sky amidst the "crunching" sounds.
"Boom boom boom..." Dashi flew more than 200 steps and landed on the ground, but because the terrain continued to roll forward, he stopped almost 20 steps in front of Cao Jun's Pili Chariot Formation.
Several shield soldiers in charge of the escort even had their legs broken by rolling stones.
This heavyweight counterattack obviously alarmed Cao's army, and Cao's thunder riders even stopped the attack.
"Boom!" Another flying stone roared out, and the range was still similar to that just now.
The first two rounds are just debugging and proofreading the angle, range, and the real attack has just begun.
"A six, A seven, move half a point right! B two, B four, raise half a ruler...
Target, Cao Jun’s Thunderbolt Car Array, with a range of 300 steps!”
Liu Qi quickly proofread the orientation and range, and shouted and adjusted the target of the numbered thunderbolt vehicle. Finally, he shouted in a high to harsh voice, "Let it go!"
"Huh~!" Another 46 large rocks flew out, and after drawing a beautiful parabola in the sky, the large rock with a thousand pounds of strength smashed the Cao army's thunder chariot position with an unstoppable power.
Dashi was still in the air, and Cao's soldiers had already found something wrong. The range this time was at least 50 steps away from the previous two times.
The Thunderbolt riders had almost no means of defense and could only watch the big stone coming.
"The shield soldier raises the shield, blocks the flying stones, and protects the stone caster!" Captain Guo Huai roared desperately, and he also personally picked up a shield and pointed it at a falling stone.
Although Cao's shield soldiers were well-trained, they were also panicked when facing such a mighty rock fall. However, the order was given, so they had to grit their teeth and raise their shields to face the big stone.
The falling rock hit the shield, making a series of "puffy" sounds.
Wooden shields and leather shields may be more than enough to block flying arrows, but they are used to block the big rocks falling with a thousand pounds of force, but they are simply vulnerable.
Many shields were smashed and smashed on the spot, and the stone then smashed into humans, immediately pressing more than a dozen soldiers into meat pies. The stone that had not yet disappeared continued to roll forward and injured many people. A thunderbolt car was even knocked apart.
When the shield touched the big stone on the first day of the first day, Guo Huai knew something was wrong and quickly took a step back to slow down the huge force, barely avoiding the bad luck of the big stone.
But even so, Guo Huai was still blasted with blood and blood. He finally suppressed his blood when he reached his throat.
With a "click!", the shield made of wood shattered into countless pieces and fell to the ground.
"The thunder chariot counterattacks, the shield soldiers come forward to cover!" Guo Huai wiped the blood from his mouth and roared.
Up and down the pass, the thunder chariots from both sides began to rush each other, and the rocks flew around, and the sound of thunder was heard. The sound of bitter cry was endless, and the blood and limbs flew endlessly.
Not long after, Guo Huai obviously found that he was not strong enough. His thunder chariots were getting fewer and fewer, and more than half of them were smashed apart by the opponent, and the soldiers were even more helpless. In contrast, the opponent seemed to have many stones smashed out every time.
This means that the other party has not lost the catapult car. There will be only one answer: the other party's catapult car has a range that exceeds the one's Pili car.
The smashing of a catapult car is different from ordinary fighting, and the range can determine everything!
Moreover, Guo Huai discovered that the opponent's catapult was actually extending the range backwards.
"What kind of catapult is this?!!!!" His fists clenched, and Guo Huai's eyes were suffocating to the distance.
At this time, the sound of gold from the Cao army's rear formation freed Guo Huai out.
.
Looking at the Cao army retreating like a tide, Yang Ang’s soldiers on the Rocking Flag Pass couldn’t help but scream. In the past three days, although they had repelled Cao’s attacks many times, this time they saw Cao’s army retreating so embarrassingly and suffering such great casualties.
.
Cao's military camp, central army's main tent
"Originally, it only took another day to capture the flag and pass!" Guo Huai said with regret and resentment, "Zhang Lu's men had no choice but to use our army's thunder chariot.
Today, I was so fucking!” I couldn’t help but swear!
"Reinforcements are coming up at the pass!" Xiahou Yuan, the general of the Western Expedition, said with a calm face.
"Zhang Lu doesn't have such a powerful catapult cart?" A scholar in Jinyi stroked his beard and said slowly, "It seems that the troops from Jingzhou have arrived, but I don't know who is coming? How many have they come?"
The generals in the tent looked at each other but didn't say anything.
The current commander of the Jingzhou Army is well-known even in the Cao army. It has become a nightmare for a while for the rest of the world. It would be fine if the other people came, but if that person really came, they would have to be cautious in this battle.
"General Xiahou, let's withdraw the surprise attack team first and find out the situation..." The scholar in Jinyi was Xun You.
"Even if the Jingzhou army comes, there is no need to panic like this. The surprise attack team does not need to withdraw. I can trust this boy Liang Dao!" Xiahou Yuan was not willing to give up easily.
"..." Xun You nodded silently, and then suggested, "I must send someone to check the situation as soon as possible!"
"kindness!"
