Chapter 347: Inutai Town Requiem
Facing the generals, Liu Xie said: "Himiko killed my messenger, this is clearly a declaration of war against our Han army." What is your opinion? ”
Many generals, including strategists, asked for battle, eager to enter the dog platform and kill Himiko now.
Concubine Ming said: "Please listen to me, although this Himiko is my aunt, I can't wait to kill her, but she knows witchcraft." So personally, I don't think we can go on the offensive anymore. ”
After some discussion, Liu Xie made the following summary: "According to the original plan, first print all the propaganda materials of the Japanese language, and then shoot them into the city with bows and arrows. We have five warships in Xihe Harbor, and twenty artillery pieces are being carried down from the warships in Xihe Harbor and transported to the Inutai position, and if nothing goes wrong, we should be able to arrive tonight. This is a big guy who is even more powerful than the Sunset Crossbow.
"A batch of printed materials should be able to come out tonight, and from tonight onwards a small amount will be distributed to the city through archery, and tomorrow morning onwards, the materials will be distributed without interruption, knowing that tomorrow at noon, if Himiko does not surrender, he will start bombarding it with cannons! While bombarding, we should be prepared to accept refugees, and at the same time, we should pay attention to preventing Japanese spies from blending into the refugees.
"After the bombardment is almost over, then order the arrow cavalry to advance and smash the old nest of Himihu, what do you think?"
Everyone agreed with Liu Xie's decision, and Liu Xie said: "From now on, we must be vigilant against Japanese people in all directions. ”
Concubine Ming said: "The concubine begs Your Majesty to assign me some people who know how to play music, and I will teach them to play the music I composed, which can resist the evil things of Himiko." ”
Before, Liu Xie also saw the power of Concubine Xiao Qu, so he nodded and said, "Yes." You can go to Concubine Cai to discuss this matter, she has brought a lot of talent in this area. ”
Cai Yan was also in the account, so he communicated with Concubine Ming on the spot and reached a consensus. I'm going to teach her Xiao Qu right now. Liu Xie said: "Concubine Ming hasn't rested well until now, you must pay attention to rest." ”
Concubine Ming said: "For the sake of my Han family, the concubine can't take care of resting, and when the dog is subdued, the concubine will rest well." ”
By the evening, 20 artillery pieces and ammunition had been transported, and the Japanese leaflets had been prepared.
The contents of the leaflet are generally that the Han army turned to rescue the slaves, and the slaves who escaped from the city would not only not be harmed, but would also be treated preferentially by the Han army, and if they could kill the slave owners, they could also ask the Han army for merit and reward.
When Cai Yan came to the Waren Island, he brought a lot of people from Yuefu, most of these people can play music and sing and dance, so under the teaching of Concubine Ming, he quickly mastered Concubine Ming's so-called "Requiem".
Fearing that Himiko would launch an attack on the Han army, including witchcraft, at night, Concubine Ming taught a large group of people how to play the Requiem, and then scattered everyone around the barracks, playing from time to time.
It was busy until the middle of the night that Concubine Ming went back to rest, and Liu Xie still asked her to come to the imperial camp to sleep, which made Concubine Ming very happy.
In the middle of the night, Liu Xie asked Concubine Ming to go back to the imperial camp to rest and wait for him, while he commanded the artillery and fired a cannon fire on the city of Inutai. After the bombardment, he ordered the whole army to continue the siege without attacking, to remain vigilant, and at the same time to be ready to accept the refugees who had escaped from the city.
Liu Xie returned to the imperial camp, Concubine Ming was waiting for him, serving him to strip and go to bed, Liu Xie wanted to do good things with her again, but Concubine Ming said with a smile: "During the day, Your Majesty has already been fortunate to the concubine once, don't want it at night, Your Majesty should take care of the dragon body." ”
Liu Xie smiled and said, "You are making fun of me." ”
"The concubine doesn't dare."
"Second brushing is a regular thing for me."
"Two brushes? What does that mean? ”
Liu Xie smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll know later." ”
After that, he was fortunate to be concubine Ming again, and completed his "second brush" today.
This night, it was quite quiet, and after the bombardment of Inutai, Himiko did not launch a night attack on the Han camp.
It's just that at dawn, when Liu Xie was sleeping soundly with Concubine Ming in his arms, the entire Han army camp suddenly became noisy, and immediately soldiers came in to report that many "big birds" flew out of the Inutai City and were flying towards the Han army camp.
Liu Xie's first thought was that it might be a corpse butterfly! Hurry up and get dressed. Concubine Ming also hurriedly dressed, and said at the same time: "Hurry up, order the band to play the requiem!" ”
Liu Xie ordered the soldiers who came outside to summon the news: "Hurry up and do what Concubine Ming said!" ”
After the two got dressed, the first thing Concubine Ming did was to take her knife Xiao, and in addition to the camp tent with Liu Xie, they saw that the entire military camp was already panicked.
Liu Xie ordered someone to pass on the order: Don't panic, even if you shoot with arrows. At the same time, he ordered: "Protect your family!" ”
When I came to the gate of the camp, I saw a large shadow in front of me flying from the direction of the dog platform, flying towards the Han army's barracks. A soldier on the tower looked through a telescope and shouted, "It's a corpse butterfly, it's a corpse butterfly!" ”
Liu Xie shouted: "Quickly pass the order, everyone is ready to bow and crossbow, as long as it flies, shoot down everything!" ”
Concubine Ming ran towards the nearest well railing, and then ran and said, "Your Majesty, you and the concubine come together, and the concubine's requiem song will dispel the demons!" ”
Liu Xie thought about it, but still ran with her, climbed a well railing, and facing the front, Concubine Ming sat down, took out the knife Xiao and began to play.
The entire barracks was immediately filled with music, all of which were the so-called "requiems" taught by Concubine Ming, including Xiao, flutes, and zhengs.
The group of corpse butterflies soon came to the sky above the barracks, letting out a piercing and terrifying strange scream, and the Han soldiers below rushed to the sky.
The musket team surrounded the well fence where Liu Xie was located.
Under the blowing of the "Requiem", these corpse butterflies are like headless flies, flying around.
In order to prevent the Japanese from taking advantage of the corpse butterfly attack to launch a ground attack on the Han army, Liu Xie ordered on the well fence: "Order twenty artillery pieces to fire all the artillery into the city and finish all the shells!" Archers protect artillery! Shoot the gun! ”
After the order was given, the artillery began to enter the gun position, panicked, loaded, fired, and the entire Inutai City was full of artillery sounds, one after another. Liu Xie ordered again: "Order the Sunset Crossbow to fire fire meteors and fire arrows at the city!" ”
From time to time, a corpse butterfly was shot down, and immediately a large number of soldiers surrounded it, slashing it with knives and guns, killing it completely.
The entire barracks was littered with the corpses of corpse butterflies.
