Chapter 918: The First Shot Hits
In the previous life, Su Qingcheng was able to crisscross the shopping mall as an orphan, in addition to luck, his social skills are beyond doubt, but the glitz of the later life also makes him really have very few friends who can really make friends, this regret has been compensated for the greatest in this life, Liu Yi tasted the warmth of family affection, and felt the deep affection before the husband and wife, especially important is that he made two good brothers who share life and death, Jinfan Ganning and Changshan Zhao Yun! After being the king of Yan, Liu Yi deeply felt the correctness of this sentence, the majesty of the king and the bearing of the superior made many people tremble in front of him, but fortunately, there are these two brothers, and they have become one of the biggest and purest enjoyment of Langsheng today.
Among the three, Zhao Yun is young, in his heart Liu Yi is not only a big brother worthy of life and death, but also a good teacher who makes himself respected, this is not an exaggeration, to have today's status and reputation, his own efforts are of course the most important, and the support and teaching of the eldest brother is also a great help, Zilong believes that if there is no righteousness with Liu Yi in this world, he will still be brave, where can he lead hundreds of thousands of troops to gallop as he does today?
The people close to Liu Yi, including Cai Yan and Gan Zhao, always had an indescribable feeling about him, not that Lang Sheng had too many unpredictable and moody kings, but where did his endless whimsical ideas come from? Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion became famous all over the world, Liu Yi and Liu Langsheng have brought too many changes to this era, King Yan is heavy on business and has the wealth and stability of Yandi today, King Yan attaches great importance to talents in all aspects of the world will have the prosperity of all industries in today's subordinate territory, King Yan has invested heavily in the establishment of Youzhou Academy At this time, it has become the premier institution of the Han Dynasty, with branches all over the Northland, it seems that every unexpected decision of Liu Yi will cause a lot of suspicion at the beginning, but with the fact that these doubts will be shattered, Over time, it has formed the prestige of today's words!
In the military, this characteristic is more obvious, not to mention anything else, but to talk about the map sand table, Liu Yi's advance layout for five years, its far-reaching vision is amazing, when the Flying Tiger Army was initially set up, Lang Sheng once laughed and said that compared with the future water army, Xingba's great achievements were pediatrics, at that time Gan Ning smiled, but he was somewhat disappreciative in his heart, but now he and Zhao Yun Mingyan saw the elite of the Flying Tigers under his hands today, and his strength was not even pediatrics at all! The same is true of this equipment battalion, the catapult Zhao Yun has not seen before, and there are many princes who use him in the battle array, but you look at the spectacular scene of ten thousand stones flying together in front of you, it is Liu Yi's vision and persistence that make it rise to the height of strategic weapons.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun looked at Guo Jia, Feng Xiao smiled slightly, and seemed to have grasped the mind of the three generals, if the temperament ghost is the most worthy of Liu Yi, the two of them have no less plans for the future when they talk about it, and Liu Yi obviously thinks further, some are unheard of by the well-informed Guo Jia, but more than ten years later, many of what Yan Wang said have become reality, which has to make him admire from the bottom of his heart, his choice back then can be described as accurate!
Under the personal supervision of the three generals and the military division and General Li Gao, the soldiers of the Vermilion Bird Battalion were full of spirit and high fighting spirit, and the boulders emitted by the Xiangyang cannon had become an extension of themselves, and the defenders in the Xiongcheng were not even able to do the slightest bit of that feeling, listening to the cheers and cheers of the comrades behind them, a sense of pride arose! During the internal exercises, Commander Li often said, our old fourth battalion followed King Yan the earliest, and now it belongs directly to the king, our Vermilion Bird Battalion is the face of King Yan when it goes out, who dares to lose face, don't blame Lao Tzu for turning his face and not recognizing people!
"Tie Niu, smash that castle tower for me, I want to see how long this Le Wenqian can endure it, how about it, okay?" Gao Shun's loud voice sounded behind the position of the Suzaku camp, at this time he was observing the movement of the enemy army at the head of the city through the clairvoyant mirror, and after a careful search, he did not find the voice of Le Jin, although he had never seen this person, but he knew Cao Jun's clothes, could it be that Le Jin was sitting in the city tower at this time? Generally speaking, the city tower on the city wall is the most solid, but it also depends on who it is, the Yan army's large sky-bombarding cannon can do this, if this Le Wenqian really dares to stay in the city tower, it can't be said that a cannon can save a lot of effort, people who are familiar with Li Tieniu know that the radical general method is the most effective for him, and Gao Shun is no exception.
"Qin Sima, push the big guy out!" Hearing Jing Fang's words, Li Tieniu's eyes widened, what can't work, is there a time when our Vermilion Bird Camp can't work? Immediately shouted to a military Sima beside him, that tone was full of murderous aura, the Vermilion Bird Battalion soldiers were even more excited when they heard it, the big guy in the commander's words was the most huge sky-bombing cannon, compared with the ordinary, its biggest difference was that it was made of stainless steel, and it took a month and a half from the beginning of the construction to the completion of the delivery, and Xu Gang personally cast the material for it. The big guy is more accurate and far-reaching than the ordinary large sky-bombing cannon, and the durability is even better, and the only one in the Vermilion Bird Battalion is naturally owned by the Iron Bull, which is an experiment made by the tool for the future, and there is no mass production capacity at present!
Qin Sima heard the words and strode away quickly, and a moment later, a huge sky-bombarding cannon that flashed silver light under the sun was pushed onto the battlefield by more than ten Vermilion Bird battalion soldiers, but looking at its appearance is majestic, as soon as it appeared, it attracted all the eyes of the Liaodong Army, Li Tieniu personally stepped forward and carefully removed the cloth bag covering it for maintenance, and began to adjust the ruler at the root of the rocker with great concentration, this thing is also made of fine iron, only the ruler is a little longer, it looks inconspicuous but it is the most critical point of the innovation of the sky-bombardment cannon, I don't know how much effort has been condensed!
The stone carts used by other princes, including Cao Jun's thunderbolt carts, relied on the experience and feel of the soldiers when they were aiming, so the error was quite large, and there were often accidental injuries. As a strategic weapon of the Yan Army, in addition to being more sophisticated in design, using this ruler as a sight has made a qualitative leap in the sky-bombardment cannon! Liu Yi only put forward a concept for the utensils, but those skilled craftsmen turned him into a real thing through their own exploration and research, and even King Yan had to sigh that people's creativity was really endless, of course, the Vermilion Bird Camp also played a great auxiliary role in this!
Don't look at Li Tieniu's body is more than eight feet long, with big shoulders and a round waist, but you can see that he treats the big guy with every move gently like a lover, for fear that a mistake will hurt him! At this time, most of the Yan army used to siege the city was Xiangyang cannon, which had the advantage of fast firing frequency compared with the large bombardment cannon, and of course, there was a gap in the weight of the loaded stone projectile. This tower in Leping City is very strong, and it is difficult for ordinary stone bullets to hurt its muscles and bones, but since General Gao has spoken, Li Tieniu also thinks that this is a good way to establish the prestige of the Yan army, of course, he must control it personally! In the Suzaku Battalion and the military equipment battalions, the shooters are divided into three levels, and only Class A and special shooters can control the large Sky Bombardment Cannon, and Li Tieniu is still outstanding even among the special marksmen, especially the Sky Bombardment Cannon in front of him, which he called the big guy, is not the hand of others.
"Load the No. 1 stone, seventeen, twenty-eight, thirty-four, change the scale, fill the No. 2 stone, and give me a concentrated bombardment of his tower, General Gao asked us if the Suzaku Battalion is okay!" The shooters have a hierarchy, and the stone cart is divided into large and small bombardment cannons and Xiangyang cannons, that is, the stone bullets also have clear polishing requirements in the Vermilion Bird Battalion, and Li Tieniu has always been extremely strict with these details! This No. 1 stone bomb is never used lightly, each weighing one hundred and twenty catties, this weight is also a great burden on the large bombardment cannon, so when Tie Niu gave the order, the other three large bombardment cannons that were just used for scattering were only replaced with No. 2 stone shells, but for the big guys, there will be no such concerns, Tie Niu is determined to show his hand in front of his comrades!
The four loaders skillfully completed the process of placing the stone bullets, and all the shooters also acted in unison before aiming and adjusting before launching, at this time, the entire Yan army's position was surprisingly quiet, and the Liaodong soldiers who were watching the battle behind did not dare to take a breath, two hundred steps away, counting the height of the opponent's city wall, the city tower was only the size of an arm in the eyes of the Yan army, and it was not easy to hit, but the actions of the Vermilion Bird Battalion gave them great confidence, Everyone was waiting for the moment when the huge boulder from the massive cannon knocked down the castle tower!
"Listen to my orders, three, two, one, release!" After adjusting the shooting angle, Li Tieniu retreated slightly, and each of the twenty strong soldiers pulled the swing arm tightly, during which the shooters were still making the final fine-tuning, and after all the preparations were perfect, Tie Niu began to count down with a serious face, and at the same time, a word burst out of his mouth, and the soldiers who pulled the swing arm neatly let go of the thick rope in their hands, don't underestimate this seemingly simple action, just this cooperation with the Vermilion Bird Battalion soldiers will have to practice hard for a whole year, in order to achieve accuracy!
"......Click" with a crisp sound, four pieces of grinding disc-sized bluestone volleyed into the air, flying quickly and violently towards the Leping City Tower, at this time all the Xiangyang cannons have stopped firing, for fear of interfering with the attack route of the stone projectiles, in the eyes of the crowd, the four stone bullets through the air flight all accurately hit the enemy tower, of which the huge size is even more incredible concentrated on the right side of the city tower, the loud breaking sound is clearly audible two hundred steps away, The city tower crumbled for a moment and then collapsed halfway, and a thick dust and smoke were filled within a radius of five zhang. Scatter all the birds in the sky in shock!
