Section 6 Fire and Water Are Ruthless (Chapter 6 of the Lifting of the Ban)
The chariot of the Qing army floated quietly in the moving river channel sprinkled like water and moonlight, slowly advancing. Even if there are no tall sails, there is no sound of water paddling, and the black body does not look very conspicuous in the night. If there were people talking about the riverbank at this time, they would not be able to find these chariots quietly along the river.
Seeing that the pass was in front of them, the Qing army accelerated the movements of their feet one by one and advanced quickly there. The chariot itself is not slow down the river. Now the afterburner drives, the natural speed is faster, and the flywheel of the afterburner system of the entire tank also emits a "whining" sound when the afterburner is mechanically rubbed.
At this time, the leading chariots had been discovered by the defenders at the "gate", and with the continuous sound of "woo" sirens, circles of light of different sizes firmly covered the large chariots coming from the river.
As the chariots got closer and closer to the pass, there were no other unexpected noises except for the speedy chariots being illuminated by searchlights. The Ming troops on both sides of the river bank had apparently spotted the Qing chariot troops that were sneaking up, but they did not see the enemy's artillery attack, nor did they hear the sound of artillery fire.
Looking at the quiet riverbank, listening to the sound of the Ming army's tight siren, the soldiers of the Qing army in the car couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the Ming army's gourd here. In my heart, I was amazed, so I had to pedal harder, hoping to pass this strange place quickly.
On the canal, the Qing army lined up in a neat phalanx of ten chariots, so that even if the vehicles on both sides were damaged, the other chariots could still break through the pass and reach the rear of the enemy's defensive line, even if they encountered fierce resistance, they could also ensure the rapid passage of a large number of chariots.
As they got closer and closer, they reached a place of only about ten meters. Suddenly, there was a sound of rain coming from nowhere, especially the crossbowman who was holding the big "Flying Divine Crossbow", and he was even more surprised.
The "......" raindrops of liquid fell on the chariots at the head, and to people's surprise, the liquid exuded a strong smell of alcohol, which entered the chariots along all the gaps in the roof of the chariots. Along with the spirits, some of the oil fell on the armor of the chariot.
"Whoosh...... Whoosh...... "A swarm of rockets came from behind the drawbridge, and as the rockets flew closer and closer, they landed on top of the vehicle.
The fire burned, and with the liquor, the chariot at the front was completely ignited. The soldiers in the car were confronted with the snake-like tongues of fire, and they writhed and let out a cry of fear, desperately fighting the flames with whatever they could get their hands on.
The soldier who had the direction turned the steering wheel towards the riverbank. However, the Qing army was lined up with ten chariots, and it was not easy to get ashore, and the whole formation was in chaos in an instant.
Taking advantage of the fire when the chariot in front was burning, the soldiers on the chariot behind were horrified to find that several liquids were spraying out of the strong "pass" in front, one was obviously the fragrant wine, and the other was naturally fire oil and the like.
The damn fuel burned in the soothing water of the canal, and in the blink of an eye, it was burned into a "sea of fire" before the pass.
The "chainball fire oil bombs" with ropes carried by the chariot itself were ignited at the same time, and even more intense fire erupted from the chariot itself. One by one, the soldiers who screamed miserably and caught fire on their bodies threw themselves into the icy water.
The soldiers in the chariot were even more horrified to find that in the face of such a fire, they could not escape, they could not hide, even if they taught you to jump into the river outside, there were fires everywhere, and they could not swim ashore. The inside of the chariot was soon consumed by the flames, and one by one died of scorching from the flames, or from suffocation.
The chariots, the human body, the weapons carried in the vehicles, the spirits that fell from the sky, the oil oil, the rockets, the chain ball type of oil bombs, these are all good flammables, which make the fire on the river even more intense. As a result of the extremely strong fire, a strong updraft was formed, and air from all sides surged towards the center of the combustion, causing more oxygen and burning more abundantly.
The chariots that were speeding up behind were blocked by the fire in front, and the chariots of the Qing army were rushing down the river in large numbers, and soon at least nearly forty chariots were carried by their own chariots into the fire that burned incessantly on the river.
The wooden bodies were ignited, and the seemingly never-ending fuel that was spewing out of those two passes was still pouring in liquid to add more fuel to the fire.
The Qing generals who were sent to lead the army to attack were completely shocked, he never thought that the pass across the river could be defended like this, it seems that the plan to break through from the canal has been difficult to succeed, if the attack continues, it will only make more chariots fall into the fire, and in desperation he issued an order to retreat.
In order to use this wine spraying device, Wu Shengzhao arranged thousands of catties of fire oil and "alcohol" refined in Shenzhou City here, so there was this "pass" that was erected on the river and could hardly be broken through by either warships or chariots. Although this method is extremely conducive to guarding, the only disadvantage is that it costs too much, and the fire oil and "fine wine" that are spewed out are all silver.
At this time, Bolo, who was unaware, was still on top of the chariot on the front line, looking at the seemingly "evil" river bank opposite, which was still devouring his chariots and devouring the lives of warriors. In my heart, I can only hope that the two covert raiding armies will succeed.
At this time, the unfortunate news came: "Report, Commander, all the chariots that assaulted along the canal have been defeated, and more than 40 old chariots and more than 400 soldiers have been lost......"
"Something with a strange name like 'fire truck' is only found in Shenzhou City. And only the strange things that come out of them will make people suffer no matter how careful and careful they are. Shenzhou City ...... It's Shenzhou City again! ”
Bo Luo hatefully tightened the monocular "clairvoyant mirror" in his hand, it seemed that it was the Yue City Lord of Shenzhou City. It can be guaranteed that if Yue Xiaofei is in front of him now, Bolo will definitely pinch him without hesitation.
"Now, I can only rely on that side...... In desperation, he raised his eyes and looked at the infinite distance to the west, which was the direction of Taihu Lake, and his five hundred chariots took advantage of the night to go down into the lake, and now it is estimated that they are about to land on the shore, as long as they can land on the shore and attack the rear of the enemy's "Suzhou Defense Line", it will also be of great benefit to the attack and defense here!
