Chapter 929: Zhou Yu's Surprise (Plus)
Tai Shi Ci and Gan Ning have long known that Liu Wei had defeated Cao Cao's Tiefutu with a Zhuge crossbow before.
However, Zhuge Liang also said that Zhuge Liang used to defend cities and camps, and such power would be the greatest.
Because of this, the Zhuge Repeater basically doesn't need to worry about being destroyed by the other party.
And although the Zhuge repeater is not as bulky as the catapult, the Zhuge repeater has to be fired continuously, and its size is not small.
When the Zhuge crossbow appeared on the city, soon Zhou Yu's army under Xiangyang City also noticed it.
However, it was the first time they had seen this Zhuge repeater.
Even Zhou Tai was stunned, he didn't understand what was the use of Zhuge Liang's sudden getting.
When Zhou Tai knew, it was already late, because the dense rain of arrows was like real rain.
"Zhuge Repeater." Zhou Yu reacted quickly, but it didn't help.
He had also heard of this kind of repeater before, and Liu Wei used it to defeat Tiefutu.
The next moment, with Zhuge Liang's order, Zhuge Liang's crossbow began to shoot towards Zhou Yu's army under the city.
Zhuge Liang's Zhuge Repeater, its aiming is not comparable to ordinary bows and arrows, and its operability is very strong.
So this made the power of the Zhuge Repeater more exerted, and shot the Zhuge Repeater from the head of Xiangyang City.
This Zhuge Liang repeater shoots arrows downward, and the power and penetration of Zhuge repeater are great, plus from top to bottom.
The inertia in this, although the effect is not great in general, but it still really increases the power of Zhuge Repeater.
Brush brush brush.
The rain of arrows didn't stop at all, and it kept shooting.
Zhou Yu also understood the power of this Zhuge repeater at this time.
If it is an ordinary soldier, their bow and arrow, the speed of the arrow depends on the speed of changing the arrow.
Therefore, in order to maximize the density and power of the rain of arrows, these soldiers generally use segmented shots.
The first row of shots was finished, and then the second row was immediately switched to shoots, and even then, there was still a little gap.
And the longer the range of the bow and arrow, the less accurate and powerful they will be.
So sometimes this dense rain of arrows comes down, and not many people die, only some unlucky people die.
Because the range is too long, the penetration power of the bow and arrow is greatly reduced, and the end of the strong crossbow, even if it is shot on the armor, may not have any effect.
But this Zhuge repeater is not like this, its arrows are dense and fast, and the penetration power is also high and terrifying.
But this is also normal, if it weren't for this, why did Liu Wei rely on it to defeat this Iron Floating Massacre in the first place.
After a few rounds of arrow raindown, it was a real shot of ten thousand arrows.
The soldiers of Zhou Yu's army were killed and injured a lot in an instant.
Zhou Yu also quickly discovered that although this Zhuge repeater is powerful, it also has its shortcomings.
The arrows of this Zhuge crossbow are in the eight paths and ten branches, and after that time, it also needs a certain pause.
Therefore, this Zhuge repeater is not completely continuous, and it is not unlimited.
If this is really the case, then where will these Jiangdong armies have any way to live.
However, even if Zhuge Lian's crossbow has shortcomings, he is now besieging the city, and it is difficult to climb to the top of the city.
Not to mention climbing the city head and destroying this Zhuge crossbow.
Zhou Yu's army retreated very quickly, and it didn't work if it wasn't fast, after all, there were not many dead and wounded.
Just now, the deaths of the soldiers caused by Zhuge Lian's crossbow were definitely not less than 3,000 people.
Compared to the tens of thousands of troops, maybe at first glance it sounds like 3,000 people are not much, but it is just a surface.
But how many of these tens of thousands are 3,000?
The usual rain of arrows, at this distance, unless there is no shield and armor protection, it is very difficult to inflict this damage.
The power of the bow and arrow is not as powerful as in the drama, and it can turn and compete with the gun.
Therefore, the arrows of the ancient people, in order to be more lethal, would be smeared with gold juice on the arrows.
In this way, the wound can become infected, and once infected, the mortality rate is high.
However, Zhuge Liang's Zhuge Repeater is not needed, and its penetration and accuracy cannot be used for this golden juice.
Besides, the arrows of Zhuge Repeater's crossbow have a quiver box, and add arrows from there, if the arrows are stained with gold juice.
Then the Zhuge Repeater will stink, and in this case, it will be a huge torture for those who use the Zhuge Repeater.
Moreover, with the cost and craftsmanship of Zhuge Repeater, it is impossible to say that it will be lost or destroyed immediately.
Gan Ning and Tai Shici watched Zhou Yu's army retreat, and they were also amazed at the power of this Zhuge crossbow.
"Strategist, your Zhuge repeater is really powerful, no wonder Your Majesty says that this crossbow is powerful, and it is called this crossbow by the surname of the military advisor." Gan Ning looked at Zhuge Liang and sighed.
Zhuge Liang just smiled at Gan Ning's words, but he was indeed surprised that Liu Wei would name this crossbow after Zhuge Repeater.
He didn't think so much about it at first, just called it a repeater.
"This repeater is so powerful, so Xiangyang is worry-free." Tai Shici looked at Zhuge Liang and also said.
Zhuge Liang shook his head, "Even if this crossbow is powerful, it is just a foreign object." ”
It can only be said that with this Zhuge crossbow, when Zhou Yu attacks Xiangyang, he needs to worry about it.
"Strategist, didn't you say that this Zhuge crossbow was used to guard Xiangyang, and it was not used as a last resort?"
"Now that we have used this Zhuge crossbow in advance, will there be any impact at that time, Zhou Yu will be on guard."
After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Tai Shi Ci first nodded in agreement, and then asked as if he had thought of something.
"This time, Zhou Yu originally planned to feint to attack Xiangyang and make a strong attack on Xiangyang."
"And I used the Zhuge Repeater to deal with Zhou Yu, because I also wanted him to understand that it was not so easy to capture Xiangyang."
To put it bluntly, he wants to make Zhou Yu have concerns in the later plans.
When he really led the army to leave Xiangyang, the safety of Xiangyang could be guaranteed to a certain extent.
Zhou Yu retreated to the camp, and the attack just now actually injured 5,000 people in such a short time.
This is a terrible number, and more than 3,000 people have died at the hands of this Zhuge crossbow.
"Now you understand why I said that it is not advisable to storm Xiangyang."
After returning to the camp, Zhou Yu calmed down and looked at everyone and asked, especially when he said this, he glanced at Zhou Tai.
Now everyone naturally understands that this is not only undesirable, but it is almost like suicide.
The loss of 5,000 people was already beyond their expectations, after all, they only planned to feint at the beginning.
In fact, don't talk about them, even Zhou Yu felt uncomfortable in his heart, and the casualties he had lost were about 1,005 to accept.
But it only took a long time for the number to soar to five thousand.
This means that if it is a strong attack, his more than 40,000 people will attack at most eight times.
Moreover, with the decrease in the number of people, the combat effectiveness and morale of the army will be hit, and they will not be able to hold out eight times.
"Metropolitan Governor, this Zhuge Liang has such a sharp weapon, why hasn't he used it before, and now he is caught off guard, how should I deal with myself." Someone asked in confusion.
Today's feint attack was originally carried out according to Zhou Yu's intentions, but the result is the way it is now.
Zhou Yu glanced at everyone, of course he knew that he was indeed responsible for this defeat.
He also knew about this Zhuge crossbow before, but he hadn't seen it before, so he didn't know its power, but now that he knows, the price is not small.
"The army will rest for two days and be on standby." Zhou Yu thought about it and then spoke.
Since Zhuge Liang dispatched the Zhuge Repeater, he just wanted to make himself scruples.
Indeed, Zhuge Liang's goal has been achieved, and he does care about this Zhuge crossbow.
But Zhuge Liang must have his intentions when he does this, and he can't fall into his trap again this time.
I can't go according to Zhuge Liang's thoughts.
"Report, Metropolitan Governor, the lord has a letter here."
At that moment, a soldier shouted outside the big tent.
Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, could it be that there was something urgent happening when the lord came to the letter at this time?
