Chapter 1705: Attack of the Age
The cold wind began to howl, and the winter that Goguryeo had been waiting for so much was finally coming.
You must know that this cold winter has helped Goguryeo defeat powerful enemies countless times, and they firmly believe that this time will be no exception.
But they don't know the Central Plains proverb, this iron needs to be hard.
God can only help you once, twice, but he can't come back to take care of you, after all, everyone lives under the same sky.
"Our time is running out!"
Dugu Wuyue stood on the valley, looking at the pilot hovering in the air, projecting a cupola cannon to the ground, and said to Han Yi with a little worry.
It's early winter, but it's still relatively dry, but if you drag it down and wait for the snow to fall, then no one will be afraid of you setting fires.
Han Yi nodded and said, "But we only need a few days, and we should still be in time." β
"Report ---!"
I saw a briefing officer running over and said, "Qi Qi appeases the ambassador, our army has successfully taken the hilly area in the south." β
Han Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Now that everything is ready, I want to see if the people of Goguryeo are really not afraid of death." β
After their analysis, the pilot after projecting the cupola, it is more laborious to come back, the best flight route is to land in the south, because the glider completely relies on the flow of air, this is related to the terrain, you have to take a base in the south, for the pilot to land, and take off again, but this is not a difficult thing for Su Dingfang, the enemy is only holding the key fortress, it is impossible to hold the entire south, the Tang army in the periphery of Pyongyang still take what it wants.
On this day, Han Yi and Su Dingfang both came to the peak on the left side of Mayi Mountain, although they could already feel a slight chill, but the sky was still clear, and the sun that was not too bright was still doing its best to bring warmth to people.
Although it is not easy for a person of Su Dingfang's age to climb up, no one wants to miss this historic moment.
This is the first time that the Tang Army has dispatched such a large-scale flight unit at one time, and in the past, the flight troops were dispatched for reconnaissance or to transmit messages, but this is the first time that the flight unit has launched an attack on the ground from the air, although the power is extremely limited, but the greatness of any aspect starts from this moment.
Everyone is looking forward to this.
On the eve of noon.
"Lord Yuanbao, it's time to take off."
Dogtooth came to the vulture's side and said. He has been helping the vulture train these pilots, and he mainly measures the wind speed, air flow, etc., this thing the vulture will not do, the vulture just wants to get the pleasure of flying, there is no instrument in these years, can only rely on some local methods, practice makes perfect, dogtooth is definitely an expert in this area.
Yuan Vulture also put away his usual cynicism at this moment, and his face was serious, because he was the most eager to see this scene, he had been helping these pilots train day and night for the past few days, and discussed with Han Yi how to improve the glider to make it more convenient for pilots to project cupola cannons.
Ten pilots, with the help of auxiliary personnel, carried the glider and came to the cliff, and behind them were also lined up in a row.
After the eagle gave an order, the ten pilots, with the help of other people, rushed down the cliff, and after a short fall, immediately pulled up.
After a while, the second team also rushed down, and six teams went down in a row, and they kept a very complete formation in the air and flew over the city of Pyongyang, because Pyongyang was just inside the mountain nest, and the air flow in it was very suitable for flying.
Su Dingfang looked at the pilots who were going away, and their eyes were both excited and nervous.
To put it a little exaggeratedly, they carry the dreams of generations.
......
......
"General, the big bird of the enemy army is coming."
The first to spot the flying unit were the soldiers at the head of the city, who immediately reported to Wenshamen.
They had all seen this flying unit, because Su Dingfang had sent a flying unit to reconnoiter it at the beginning, but they didn't know what it was, so they called it "the enemy's big bird".
Wen Shamen looked up at those "big birds", his teeth itched with hatred, their bows and arrows could not shoot these flying troops, they could only watch them fly over their heads, helpless, but they also knew that this flying unit was here to reconnoitre, and the detection was very limited, so he was not very worried, my Pyongyang city is impregnable, even if you know the deployment in the city, it will be difficult for you to take it.
"General, it seems that the Tang Army has never dispatched so many big birds."
A lieutenant general beside Wen Shamen looked at the neat formation of large birds, swept over his head, and said blankly.
Wen Shamen frowned slightly, and said, "You lead three hundred people to follow them until they fly back." β
"The last will obey."
At this time, the city of Pyongyang was full of smoke, and although the enemy had already approached the city, their general told them that it was impossible for the enemy to enter the city, and you can rest assured that the people in the city were relatively calm, but even if they were afraid, they still had to eat the meal.
Suddenly, many people felt a shadow pass over their heads, and looked up very calmly. When the "big bird" came back, they were still very flustered, but they found that this thing was harmless to humans and animals, but they felt very strange, but this time the number was very large, it was quite spectacular, and many people went out to watch.
After a while, the pilots of the first team came to a very densely populated area, only to see that they began to lean slightly, ready to dive.
I saw the leader of the team, suddenly reached out and grabbed a wooden pole on the left, pushed it forward, and with a snap, a wooden board was horizontal in front of him, this was a specially designed wind shield, the glider shook slightly, but he quickly controlled it, and the six cupola cannons in front of him were originally parallel and tilted downward at the same time. I saw that the squad leader took out a fire fold from his shoulder, bit it directly with his mouth, and blew it violently, and the fire flashed inside.
This is a military fire, and materials such as sulfur are added to it, and after many experiments, it is ensured that it will not be extinguished, and even if it is extinguished, there are still backups, as many as three.
He put his hand directly on the specially designed armrest in front of him, and lit the leads hidden in the thin bamboo tube on the left and right, only to see that the fire inside was bursting out, and the frequency of flickering was getting faster and faster.
After a while, I heard the sound of swishing.
Six flames sprayed on the fireproof board behind the cupola one after another, which is very dangerous, you can't burn yourself, even if you burn a hole, so there is a special fire shield behind it, but it is not copper and iron, or wood, because copper and iron are too heavy.
In addition, there is a push rod on the right side, this push rod is used to give up the cupola device, as long as you push it forward, the entire cupola device in front of it will fall, because the stability of this cupola is like that, if it is not shot out, it will burn directly in the glider, then the pilot must have finished playing, Han Yi got this device, this device is very ingenious, but it is very simple to do, anyway, as long as one does not shoot out, the pilot must immediately give up the whole device.
Luckily, all six cupolas were shot safely.
At this time, the Goguryeo people on the ground were all blinded, why did this "big bird" still breathe fire today.
Don't look at this is just a cupola, if it is put in the future, maybe everyone will not take a second look, not even a dollar cannon, but in this era without gunpowder, there are few people who have seen it, the cupola is fast, and it also sprays flames, and makes the sound of breaking the sky, as if it is the cry of a big bird.
The Goguryeo soldiers who had been following them were all stunned, and they had no way to deal with it, and they didn't even know what it was.
But they soon understood, and when the cannon was about to fall to the ground, a blaze suddenly ignited in the air.
"Ahh
Screams rang out on the ground.
At the same time, the pilots behind also fired cupola cannons at residential areas. A total of 60 pilots and 360 cupola cannons poured down, although these 300 cupola cannons were not enough to see the huge city of Pyongyang, but they were all concentrated in one area projection, only to see a rain of fire in the sky above, which was very spectacular.
Some fireballs fall on the ground, and they will extinguish themselves, and they are useless, but once they fall on those thatched houses, it is really deadly, because there is oil in them, which can be burned for a long time, and it is sticky to burn, and the worst thing is that most of the houses where the people live here are thatched huts, and more than 30 houses are set on fire at once.
It wasn't until the smoke rose that the people in the city reacted, and it turned out that these big birds were not here to investigate, but to set fires.
Suddenly there was a great chaos in the city, and the people covered their heads and ran around, in fact, the fire was not very big, but they were already frightened, because they could only see part of it. At the same time, Wen Shamen also arrived in person, seeing the fire in front of him, his eyes were full of fear, but he still endured his fear, and immediately organized everyone to put out the fire, although the fire is not big at present, but if you let it continue to burn, then this residential area may have to be burned down.
On Mayi Mountain, however, there was a lot of laughter.
"It worked!"
"It worked!"
Su Dingfang watched the smoke billowing above Pyongyang City from a distance, of course he knew that he had succeeded, and immediately laughed happily.
The pilots behind are also very excited, this is their glory!
"In the afternoon, I'll personally lead the team, haha!"
Yuan Vulture shook his body and said excitedly.
Han Yi rolled his eyes and said, "Lord Yuanbao, don't be foolish." β
Yuan Vulture said seriously: "They can all do it, can't I?" I trained them all by me, and none of them were better than me. β
Han Yi looked directly at Yuan Liehu, he is his father, of course this matter is handed over to you.
Yuan Liehu walked over and whispered, "Daddy, this is still dangerous!" β
"There's a fart danger." Yuan Vulture's words were righteous: "You kid doesn't understand anything, of course you feel dangerous, this is safer than sailing on the sea." Go, go, I've already decided, I'll personally lead the team this afternoon, if you want to stop me, I'll go to other mountains and take off. β
This was his dream, and he couldn't sit still when he saw the flying team members so mighty.
Yuan Liehu also knew the character of the Yuan Vulture, and when he saw that both of the Yuan Vulture eyes began to shoot out of the essence, he knew that this iron must not be able to stop. People come here for this moment! He shook his head at Han Yi helplessly.
Han Yi sighed softly, in fact, Yuan Vulture was quite right, but the glider was much safer than sailing on the sea now.
At this time, Ono suddenly walked up to Han Yi and whispered, "Brother Han, I want to try it too." β
Han Yi was about to cry when he heard this, and said, "Brother Xiaoye, don't go." β
Ono said: "Brother Han, don't worry, such a short distance, and the surrounding mountains are all big, no matter how bad I am, I can land in the mountains, they can't catch me in the mountains." β
Han Yi saw that Ono's big eyes were full of desire, and he was not a person who liked to interfere with others, so he nodded and said, "Then you have to be careful." β
Ono nodded happily.
Yuan Vulture walked over excitedly and said, "Ono, let's stop throwing small strips of cloth and bring some weapons to try." β
Ono nodded excitedly and said, "Even if you bring a weapon, you can also bring some small strips of cloth." β
There was not much pleasure for the two of them to fly over, and there was no scenery to see in Pyongyang City, they mainly wanted to try the pleasure of attacking the ground from the air.
By the time the smoke over Pyongyang had gradually cleared in the afternoon, the 200 pilots were all on standby, divided into two columns, led by Motofu and Ono themselves.
All of them are very excited, they are really not afraid at all, people who know how to fly, they will not be afraid, just like people who know how to swim in the water, only those who don't understand, will be worried about it, but this is really handsome, no one can resist this charm, the only regret is that among them, only Yuan Vulture, Ono carries a cupola cannon, and the rest are small strips of cloth.
As the dogs waved the flag again and again, a team of pilots flew down the cliff, which was much larger than the scale in the morning, three times that of the morning****** S: ask for subscriptions, ask for rewards, ask for monthly passes, ask for recommendationsγγγγγγ
