Chapter 467: I've Met an Old Acquaintance!
Thinking of this, Lu Chen decided to delay for a while, and at the same time, he also wanted to see who the other party was, and he would actually invade Minzhou City at this time.
Lu Chen carried two bombs, as well as a sharp arrow full of quivers. rushed out directly from the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the wide street in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Chen rushed towards it quickly. But he had only rushed out less than five hundred meters before he heard a slight noise coming from ahead. Hearing this sound, Lu Chen immediately lay down and put his ear on the ground. Sure enough, he heard the sound of horses' hooves and the vibration of marching in the distance.
After hearing this sound, Lu Chen's figure immediately flashed and hid in a dim alley next to him.
Lu Chen didn't wait long before he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, followed by the noisy sound of marching from behind.
According to the voice, Lu Chen roughly estimated the distance of the enemy army from this place. When estimating that the other party was about to arrive here, Lu Chen quietly showed half of his head and glanced at the distance. However, under the illumination of the moonlight, a group of Tibetan soldiers on horseback appeared in the distance.
When Lu Chen saw the general in the middle, he was obviously stunned. Isn't this the general from Hezhou City before? Before, after Lu Chen heard that the city was attacked, he thought about a lot of forces, and also thought about a lot of possible enemies. But he just didn't expect it to be his old rival.
However, at this urgent moment, Lu Chen didn't dare to be distracted too much. He immediately returned to the dark alley, and then carefully lit the two bombs he was carrying. Listening to the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, Lu Chen threw two bombs into the street, and while throwing the bombs out, he rushed from the alley into the distance without stopping, and finally disappeared at the other end of the alley.
Tianda, who was riding a war horse and leading the army in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of two black balls flying out of the corner, and the two balls flew straight towards the crowd behind him.
After seeing the familiar black ball, Tianda and Lin Lao, who were riding horses in the front, only felt a pang in their hearts. The next moment, the two desperately dodged to the side. It can be seen that the two of them are really frightened by the black ball. After all, in Hezhou City before, they had seen the power of these black balls.
If you can't dodge, the end is very tragic.
Although the two of them dodged the past. But the soldiers behind the two were not so lucky. Most of these soldiers were also frightened when they saw these two black balls, but after all, their reactions were not as fast as Tianda and Lin Lao.
Even those soldiers who reacted quickly only came to their senses when the two bombs were about to land, and jumped desperately to the side. As soon as the complexion of the vast majority of ordinary soldiers changed, two bombs exploded beside them.
When the dust of the bomb gradually landed, Lin Lao and Tianda, who were not far away, got up from the dirt with gloomy faces. They never imagined that they would be able to encounter such a thing when they came to Minzhou City.
Gradually, when the dust in the air had dissipated, two large craters were revealed on the ground. In these two large pits, you can see that the flesh and earth are completely mixed together. And there were dozens of soldiers moaning beside them, these people had obviously lost their combat effectiveness.
Tianda glanced at the scene in front of him, and his face became even more gloomy.
The two bombs just now killed at least 150 or 60 people, and the loss was a little unbearable for him. What made him even more angry was that he hadn't even seen the shadow of the enemy after so many people had died.
At this time, Tianda and Lin Lao glanced at each other, but saw that Lin Lao's eyes were full of solemnity. Feeling Tianda's gaze, Lin Lao sighed lightly and said, "I didn't expect to encounter this kind of damn weapon here again." Could it be that this kind of weapon has been popularized in the army in Datang!? ”
After saying the last conjecture, Lin Lao's face became even more ugly. If it was really as he guessed, this kind of black ball weapon was already very common in the Tang army. Then they're in danger. And not only their team of 2,000 people. It also includes those main forces that have already invaded the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty.
One carelessness may be the end of the entire army. Moreover, the Tibetan side does not seem to know about the existence of this weapon. Otherwise, they wouldn't have gotten no news before.
Hearing Lin Lao's speculation, Tianda's face instantly became a little desperate. If that's the case, I'm afraid they don't have to fight, just admit defeat. However, then he saw Lin Lao shaking his head again, and continued to guess, "No, it shouldn't have been popularized yet." Otherwise, when your army attacked Yuanzhou, or even Ganzhou City, they should have taken it out long ago. It is impossible to wait until our army has already attacked the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty before they take it out."
Tianda shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I hope so." Otherwise, I'm afraid that our two thousand soldiers and horses will be more than lucky."
The two didn't say much in the same place. Tianda immediately stood up, let the army behind catch up, and continued to rush in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
It's just that because of the attack just now, they have become very cautious on the way behind, and they look like they are all soldiers.
A moment later, they came to the front of the City Lord's Mansion. Looking at the City Lord's Mansion in front of him with the city gate closed and no one outside, Tianda already knew the attitude of the City Lord's Mansion, and it was obvious that the other party was fighting him to the death in the City Lord's Mansion.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered a thousand troops to attack the gate of the City Lord's Mansion as the main attack, while the remaining more than 800 soldiers went to the side gate to launch a fierce attack.
At the same time, the City Lord's Mansion was also ready. After the summoning of the city lord just now, there were about a thousand soldiers in the city lord's mansion at this time, and these also included hundreds of private soldiers from several families. It can be seen how shabby the city lord of Minzhou City is in the city. Even a thousand soldiers had to be made up by the private armies of several major families.
It seemed to feel Lu Chen's slightly surprised expression. The city lord explained with some embarrassment, "Because I have been here for a short time. So it's not time to form an army yet."
Hearing this, Lu Chen only nodded slightly. For this city lord to be mixed like this, Lu Chen naturally knew it. After all, most of the shops in the city are secretly controlled by him, plus the remaining families in the city, they are also secretly dominated by him.
With no resources and no manpower to support this city lord, it is naturally impossible to assemble such a huge team.
It's just that Lu Chen doesn't have the energy to pay attention to this matter at this time. After all, the enemy was already eyeing the outside of the house, and he didn't dare to have the slightest distraction.
