The question raised by the adjutant general is not out of nowhere, Cheng Chumo has loaded no less than 200 'iron pineapples' in each car for this battle, and according to the calculation of ten people in one car, each person needs to be equipped with twenty.

The 'iron pineapple' made of black powder is not a modern grenade, in order to increase the power, each one is filled with no less than two catties of gunpowder, plus its own shell, it can be said that each 'iron pineapple' is the size of a human head.

Two hundred of them were piled together, which was a big pile, loaded into the medical car, plus ten people, and the car was immediately crowded, and there was basically not much room for people to move in except to turn around.

Everyone knows that gunpowder is actually very dangerous, and any point of vibration, ignition, or friction can detonate it.

Now so many 'iron pineapples' are piled together, plus ten people, and each of them still has a fire on them. In the adjutant general's opinion, those cars are especially large bombs, and they may send everyone inside to another world with a 'bang' at any time.

"Okay, don't worry, isn't it just the time of a hundred and ten steps, when they rush over and throw away the 'iron pineapple', won't it be fine." Cheng Chumo was still a little unimpressed, and after patting the deputy on the shoulder, he rode to the front of the team.

"Everyone, listen well, let Lao Tzu follow behind these cars, no one is allowed to show their heads until they have contact with the Baekje people, otherwise they will lose their heads, don't blame Lao Tzu for not reminding you."

If Li Chengqian was here, he would definitely be taken aback by Cheng Chumo's decision, the damn guy actually came up with a model similar to the coordinated operation of Butan in the later generations.

It's just that unlike later generations, the medical cart travels very slowly, and the power is to rely on people to push the car inside.

However, it is undeniable that this medical vehicle has a strong protection against enemy arrows, and the arm-thick wood is strong enough to withstand all long-range weapons under the bed crossbow and trebuchet.

This is also the reason why Cheng Chumo had a whim and planned to use the medical vehicle as a cover to launch an attack on the Baekje people.

Time passed little by little, and the Datang Liaodong Army quickly completed the preparations before the attack, and the medical vehicle began to move slowly forward with the efforts of everyone.

"The Don army is going to attack, everyone is ready, the archers come forward!" The Baekje people keenly noticed the movement of the Liaodong Army, and the sound of orders began to sound undulating with each other, and the tense atmosphere gathered in the Baekje army.

Five hundred steps, four hundred steps, although the speed of the medical vehicle was slow, but it did not stop, and with the joint efforts of everyone inside and outside the car, the car finally entered the attack range of the Baekje people.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows!" The Baekje people, who had never fought such a battle before, were still fighting according to their previous experience, and after the Tang army entered the range of two hundred paces, countless sharp arrows shot up into the sky, with the sound of howling wind, and pounced on their targets.

A series of percussion sounds of "Bangbang ......" were transmitted into the medical car, and the overwhelming rain of arrows covered the Datang attacking team.

However, what made the Baekje people speechless was that their rain of arrows did not cause any losses to the Tang army, and the medical vehicle was still advancing slowly and silently, and a large number of soldiers of the Liaodong Army hid behind the car and kept laughing and laughing.

Can't move! How can this special war be fought? After three rounds of arrow rain, the Baekje Prime Minister reluctantly found that their attack could not stop the Tang army's attack at all, although the strange cars were shot like hedgehogs, but it was obvious that the arrow rain could not stop it.

"Prime Minister, this, what should I do?" The general who led the army found the same problem, and in a hurry asked one of his ministers how to deal with it.

"With bed crossbows, with trebuchets, destroy them, you must destroy them, you must not let them come to you." Although the prime minister of Baekje did not know why the Liaodong army would use such a strange tactic, nor did he know what thousands of people could do when they rushed up. But instinctively, he didn't think he should let those damn monsters into the ranks anyway.

What made him strange was that after receiving the order, the generals who came to inquire about him did not leave, but just looked at him with a bitter face, and opened and closed their mouths for a long time without saying a word.

"What's going on, tell me quickly!" Glaring fiercely at this unknown guy, Prime Minister Baekje asked urgently.

"Prime Minister, the bed crossbow and trebuchet are still in the city, and it is impossible to transport them out in a day." The general's voice was full of helplessness.

Of course he knew that what the prime minister said was right, the best way to deal with a strange car like Datang was to attack with a bed crossbow, but the problem was that now it was a field battle, not a siege or defense war, who would waste their strength to luck that thing out?

Baekje's bed crossbow is not the same as Datang's, not to mention the effort to open and close once, even moving it takes several people.

With such a heavy weapon, it would be worth more than it would have been to put on the field, and it would have been impossible for the attacking enemy to give them time to open their bows a second time or reload their trebuchets.

For the sake of a chance that can only be fired once, with such a heavy guy, this is a stupid choice for any general.

This is not only the idea of the Baekje general, but even before the appearance of the combined bed crossbow in the Tang Dynasty, the generals of the Datang also had such thoughts.

"Do your best to obey the fate of heaven, and organize your troops well to prepare for the coming attack." Knowing the predicament he was facing, Prime Minister Baekje waved his hand.

The solid achievements of the Tang army constantly reminded the Baekje prime minister, who was nearly fifty years old, that he wanted to rely on 100,000 troops to block the progress of the Tang Dynasty, unless a miracle came!

"The archers stepped back, the shield soldiers stepped forward, and the spears were put on top of Lao Tzu." The Baekje general, who returned to the front of the battle, let out a roar of rage with the determination to die.

Datang's strange car has approached the front of the military formation less than 100 paces, and it looks like it is about to be short-handed, and it is all a lie to say that it is not nervous.

But despite this, the battle that should be fought still has to be fought, although he is apprehensive in his heart, but he must not be seen by his subordinates on the outside, even if he pretends to be some, this is the true thought of the Baekje general's heart, and now he has no luck.

Closer, closer, as the strange car in the eyes of the Baekje people continued to advance, and it was about to enter within fifty paces of the front of the formation.

"Kill!" As if to embolden themselves, hundreds of people poked the shields in their hands to the ground with a loud 'bang'.

A battle to defend the imperial capital began!
