Annoyed, Guan Yu issued a brand new order, to use new weapons to bombard the Sword Pavilion Pass City violently for a long time and viciously.

He decided to constantly cause explosions and cause long-range strikes, so as to put pressure on the Shu people without stopping, not giving the Shu people time to rest and reorganize their troops, and torture them fiercely until they were dying, and then send troops to attack the city.

We can't continue to inflict unnecessary casualties on the army, and if we continue to suffer casualties, even if we win, it will be a disastrous victory.

As Xun You said, Guan Yu is clear about how much Guo Peng cares about the lives of soldiers.

Since the time of Captain Gokarasuma, Guo Peng has widely used military doctors, never abandoning or giving up on any wounded soldiers, spending a lot of money on medicinal herbs, and doing his best to save their lives after every battle, so all the armies are willing to serve Guo Peng, and they all fight bravely on the battlefield.

Part of the reason why he decided to fight for Guo Peng at all costs was that he was moved by Guo Peng's initiative to value the lives of soldiers, and he has followed him ever since.

One of the traditions of the Wei army is not to abandon or give up on the wounded, and uphold the concept that a veteran who has returned from injury is better than ten new soldiers, so the proportion of veterans in the Wei army is extremely high, and the combat power has always been very high.

Guan Yu naturally will not go against this tradition.

And so a massive trebuchet strike began.

Throwing stones, throwing earth-shaking thunder, and throwing them into the Guancheng with brushes and brushes brought a huge shock to the Shu army in the Guancheng who were still licking their wounds and holding a summary meeting, and thought that the Wei army was about to start attacking again.

When Guan Yu decided to strike at Guancheng, the top level of the Shu army was holding a military meeting to summarize.

"I have read in ancient books that in the pre-Qin period, there were soldiers who used a kind of stone throwing machine to launch stones from three hundred steps away to strike at the city, but after that, this kind of stone throwing machine disappeared and was lost, but I didn't expect that the Wei people actually reproduced this kind of stone throwing machine, and the strike distance was definitely more than three hundred steps!"

Huang Quan wiped the black stains on his face and looked at Wu Yi with palpitations.

Wu Yi's face was very poor.

"Stone-throwing machine...... This stone thrower is too fierce, boulders, and that kind of thunderous weapon, I never expected that the Wei people would have so many strange weapons that we have never heard of, if it weren't for Gongheng to help this time, I'm afraid my life would have to be explained there......"

Wu Yi rubbed his ears as he spoke.

"The general's ears are still uncomfortable?"

"That voice is too loud...... By the way, how many casualties were there in the whole army? ”

Wu Yi asked Huang Quan.

Huang Quan's face froze.

"There are a lot of people, and preliminary estimates show that more than 800 people have been killed in battle and seriously injured and difficult to treat, and the minor injuries cannot be counted, and more importantly, we now lack military doctors and medicines, and it is difficult for wounded soldiers to be treated, which is very bad."

Wu Yi shook his head and sighed.

"It is not easy for Your Majesty to raise enough food and grass for us to use for three months, and medicine or something can only be left to fate...... How could there be such a large number of casualties? ”

"The new weapons of the Wei people, I didn't expect them, and naturally we didn't know how to defend against them, so the casualties were very large, especially the deafening weapon, according to some soldiers, after it burst open, a large amount of debris sprayed out.

There is gravel in the debris, and if it touches the soldier, it may injure the soldier, if it hits the head, it can even kill, once it explodes in the place where the soldier's combat power is concentrated, it will injure countless soldiers in an instant, and the damage is extremely great, very terrifying. ”

Huang Quan was very worried, and said again: "If you want to guard against this, you must at least armor the soldiers, but our army does not have a lot of armor, it is only enough to equip the elite, and ordinary soldiers cannot equip armor at all, so the soldiers are extremely damaged." ”

Wu Yi frowned and thought for a moment.

"What about a shield?"

"Those things will fall from the sky at any time, and I don't know where they will fall, and there is no way to prevent them in advance, even if there is a shield, it is impossible for every soldier to defend at all times, and it is almost impossible to be prepared in advance."

Huang Quan shook his head.

"But how is this good?"

Wu Yi was very worried, his face was full of anxiety: "In the long run, our army will inevitably face great losses, and the strength may not be able to support it for long at all, once the Sword Pavilion is breached, Chengdu will be in danger!" ”

Huang Quan was helpless.

"General, the only way to do this is ......"

Huang Quan's words were not finished, and suddenly, the sound of thunder sounded in the city again, and Wu Yi and Huang Quan's faces changed greatly.

The bodies of the two trembled violently, and they fell to the ground in unison, and then stood up with each other's arms, looking out in horror.

Could it be that the Wei army has begun to attack the city again?

The Wei army did not attack the city, but used long-range weapons to carry out continuous strikes inside the city, causing the defenders in the city to be in chaos, running for their lives to avoid being hit.

The boulders that fell from the sky and the earth-shattering thunder that fell from the sky continued to hit the defenders of the Sword Pavilion physically and psychologically, causing the morale of the defenders of the Sword Pavilion to be greatly weakened.

But it's not just the boulders and the earth-shattering thunder, but also the fierce fire oil canisters that didn't have time to use just now are also being used.

The gunners set fire to the cloth at the mouth of the canister to start burning, and then used trebuchets to throw it into and over the castle.

The tank will explode when it touches the wall or the ground, and the moment the fire oil tank bursts, it is like a large ball of explosive cracking.

That kind of scene is unimaginable, the huge fire burst out, sparks flew everywhere, and the violent air flow caused the fire to splash farther and burn more violently, and the soldiers around the explosion were also swept away by the violent explosion air flow, turning into "flame trapeze" on fire one by one.

The worst one was on fire, and was blown up from the gate to the bottom of the gate, and fell to the ground like a big ball of fire, and the people died, but the fire was still burning.

The fire not only consumes the lives of soldiers, but also splashes on the attics of the castle or on the soldiers' weapons, whether they are stone, wood, bronze or iron.

So this strange and terrifying fire frightened the Shu defenders into a daze, and they scattered desperately.

A large number of soldiers on fire ran desperately, and some comrades stepped forward to try to extinguish the fire for them, but they could not extinguish those flames at all, but instead implicated more people and let more people catch fire together.

Many people were on fire, so they could only roll around on the ground crying and shouting, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not extinguish the flames.

It feels like the city is on fire.

Guan Yu and the generals in the distance were observing the damage caused by the long-distance attack to the Sword Pavilion Guancheng, and they were surprised to find the fierce lethality of the fierce fire oil canister.

It seems that compared to the power of the earth-shaking thunder, the fierce fire oil tank seems to be bigger, the earth-shaking thunder is the sound, the sound of the fierce fire oil tank is not so loud, but this fire is really terrifying.

"I heard that these fierce fire oil were collected in Liangzhou, and then transported to Luoyang to make them, I was still wondering what this fierce fire oil was, it turned out to be such a terrible weapon!"

Guan Yu gasped, feeling very unbelievable about this, and was very surprised by the huge lethality of the fierce fire oil tank.

"It's so terrifying, it seems that the Ministry of Industry really didn't waste those funds, and there were many people who said that the Ministry of Industry needed too much every year, and it should be cut for civil use, and now it seems that I am afraid that there will be some more, the more powerful the weapon, the more we can win the war?"

Pang Xi followed Xun Yu and said.

"Yes, after this battle, it is time to show Your Majesty the role of these new weapons, but you can't let those mediocre officials in the DPRK and China spoil the military affairs."

Guan Yu nodded slowly.
