Chapter 81: Shoot Me

At the end of the day, the guerrillas, who had rested for nearly an hour, quietly followed behind the scouts, and followed the mountain trail from one end of the mountain to the other.

With the help of the faint moonlight, the group cautiously came to a suitable place for attacking.

Although he had already mastered the position of the other party's sentry on the mountain in advance, Yang Ye was still unusually cautious.

Guerrilla generals are not only attacking the enemy, but also constantly challenging themselves.

Not only do they have to face a possible enemy siege, but they also have to be careful about the terrain, and if they are not careful, they may be able to get into it.

On a slightly smoother large stone, Yang Ye personally led people to begin assembling the crossbow.

Normally, it takes six or seven people to use a strong crossbow.

But the strong crossbow in Yang Ye's hand was modified.

It takes at least eight people to operate, and in extreme cases, nine people.

Although it has been refitted, although the number of operators has increased, the firing range has not increased much, and it is still about 800 meters.

In about half an hour, a powerful crossbow was assembled.

The body of the crossbow is reinforced, and the string of the crossbow is also thicker than that of a normal strong crossbow.

"Yang Qianren, that's where they store grain and grass!" One of the scouts said, pointing to the darkness in front of him.

It was not easy to identify targets at night, but fortunately below was Sima Xin's temporary camp, and in order to prevent prisoners from escaping at night, the patrol team was basically uninterrupted.

The place where the grain and grass are stored is located in the center, and the night patrol needs torches to illuminate, so in order to prevent accidents, the patrol team will avoid the grain and grass storage area.

In addition, during the day, the scouts had already seen their grain and grass storage place, and the general location was known.

Through the patrol route of the patrol team, the exact location of the target was determined after the crossbow was assembled.

Yang Ye looked in the direction of the scout's finger.

He didn't know whether he could succeed or not, after all, grain and grass were not piled up together and finished.

The grain and grass in the temporary camp are loaded on each vehicle, so that they can be directly pulled the next day.

"Where's the stable?" Yang Ye silently pondered in his heart and asked.

"To the west of the grainland! It's downwind! The scout said directly.

The placement of the stables is very particular, and the temporary stationing is not so harsh, but if it is a long-term garrison, the stables must be placed in the direction of the downwind.

Otherwise, if the wind blows, the people here will not do anything, and they will smell the manure of livestock all day long.

I don't know if Sima Xin was careless or didn't know how to fight at all, or if he thought it was impossible for anyone to attack from the mountain.

In fact, it is not very possible to attack from the mountains, and even if there is, it is on a small scale, and it is impossible for the movement of a large number of men and horses to hide from the sentinels, and on a small scale, they are not afraid at all.

So, on another level, being stationed at the foot of the mountain can help reduce the pressure on their defenses.

And how many of the 100,000 people will you come down from the mountains?

"Prepare to attack, the first arrow, the second arrow, the target grain, and the third arrow, the stable!" Yang Ye ordered directly towards the guerrilla general behind him.

After receiving the order, the five guerrillas will directly support the entire crossbow, one in the middle and two on each side, they need to be responsible for ensuring the stability of the crossbow, and the other is to prevent the crossbow from falling back when pulling the string and causing the crossbow to be insufficient.

One person directly took out a special crossbow arrow, about two meters and a half long, the first half of which has no arrow, and the second is a pottery cylinder that is thicker than the arrow body and about 40 centimeters long.

This clay tube is deliberately fired, is thin, and is filled with pine resin.

Worried that the firepower was not enough, even the front part of the arrow body was cut off to increase the capacity of pine resin.

The outside is wrapped with a layer of flammable material, and after hundreds of tests, the success rate is more than ninety.

With their bows and arrows, the three guerrillas behind them pulled the crossbow strings back with all their might, while posing at a certain angle according to experience.

This kind of processed strong crossbow is not good for going straight, and the arrow is heavy and the tail is light, and if you want to hit the maximum range, you must use a projectile.

Another advantage at this time is that they are condescending, which in turn allows them to increase their range a bit.

"Launch when you're ready!" Yang Ye glanced at everyone and ordered directly.

Immediately, the soldier in charge of igniting the fire at the front took out a special fire fan from his arms, threw some pine resin into it, and blew it hard, a small torch was formed instantly, and in the blink of an eye, the arrow of the crossbow was ignited.

'Whoosh ......'

A sound of breaking the air came instantly, and the huge crossbow force of the strong crossbow made the heavy crossbow arrows fly diagonally upward.

The speed was so fast that even the air trembled with fright, and let out the slightest mournful sound.

The rocket lifted off like a meteor, and when it reached a certain location, the arrows began to fall downward, and the flames dragged a long tail flame.

Many people watched with trepidation, for fear that the rocket would go off before it hit the ground.

Although the success rate is 90%, there is also a 10% probability of failure.

However, the soldiers who operated the crossbow did not bother to care about this, and immediately after the first crossbow arrow was fired, they began to prepare the second crossbow arrow.

Zhang bowed the string, but did not rush to launch it.

They are going to carry out precision strikes, and what they need is accuracy, so they must wait for the first arrow to land and see the effect before deciding.

'Bang ......'

The crossbow bolt finally disappeared, and in a place where Yang Ye and the others couldn't hear it, there was a dull sound.

The bolt hit the tail of a car, shattering the pot.

The pine resin was sprayed everywhere, and it ignited instantly when it caught fire, and it happened that at this time, the wind rose......

Yang Ye on the mountain also noticed this, and immediately ordered: "Move twenty steps to the left!" ”

The best place to attack the fire is, of course, the upwind outlet, and of course, forget it when there is no wind.

The soldiers quickly adjusted their position, in fact, they just turned a little angle, the second arrow was fired, the third arrow did not wait for the second arrow, and when they were ready, they shot directly towards the target position.

The vision is blocked at night, and whether you can shoot or not is actually up to fate, as for the rest, let's talk about it......

Soon, Yang Ye confirmed the effect of his attack, and the others didn't know, anyway, all three arrows exploded and were successfully ignited.

And the same three arrows are military orders, in order to prevent accidents, Yang Ye brought two squads here, while the other ninety-eight squads, because the number of scouts who can lead the way is not enough, so they can only make up thirty-three squads.

Immediately afterward, the camp was surrounded by ejected rockets, and in just a few breaths, thousands of rockets were fired towards Sima Xin's camp.

After three rounds of rapid fire, the originally lively scene suddenly fell silent, and no more rockets were launched.

While the soldiers were still disassembling the crossbow, Yang Ye observed below, and the effect was not bad.

The fire in the grain storage area is the largest, and there are at least hundreds of fire points below, and the wind is blowing at this time, the effect of this battle is definitely good.

Of course, as for the results of the battle, Yang Ye didn't have the heart to count them, and saw that several of the heaviest parts of the strong crossbow had been removed, and immediately ordered: "Withdraw!" ”
