"General, you are not kind, you have everything, we don't have to play!" After Guan Yu came back, Li Tong stepped forward and complained. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info His troops had planned to go over and join in the fun, but Guan Yu took up the limelight.

"The other side has a big yellow crossbow, and my personal guards have killed more than ten soldiers, if your infantry advances, I am afraid that it will not be able to occupy it." Guan Yu shook his head and said.

The opponent's big yellow crossbow is obviously improved, and the firing range is directly increased to three hundred meters. Within 200 meters, it was also able to penetrate the armor of the cavalry and shoot it directly. While being large and difficult to wind is a big problem, it's a lot smaller when you consider its range and power.

This new rhubarb crossbow feels like it is no longer a single weapon, it needs to be carried by two people to move, just like a small bed crossbow, which is originally a siege weapon. If not, it would not be possible to equip so little.

The effective range of the Huaxia Republic's repeating strong crossbow is only 200 meters, and the other party has obviously improved the big yellow crossbow in response to this. It's not just the repeating crossbow, the latest Renshen repeating rifle (imitation Spencer rifle), the effective range is no more than two hundred meters, which is farther than the ordinary strong bow and strong crossbow, but in front of the big yellow crossbow and the repeating strong crossbow, it is still slightly inferior.

The only advantage is that it is fired in bursts, and it is easy to master, usually on the back of the double-knife heavy infantry, and when needed, it is transferred to the battlefield as a musketeer; It is worth mentioning that the original hammer soldiers have now all been converted to artillery or double-sword heavy infantry; The Modao Corps was also abolished and scattered into the artillery corps, cavalry corps, and double-sword corps.

Guan Yu's personal guard army is a heavy cavalry unit, which can also be changed to double lancer cavalry according to the needs of the battlefield. The thick armor made them have enough protection when they charged, and even the horses were armored to strengthen the safety of the cavalry.

For the defense of the heavy cavalry, Guan Yu was still very confident, after all, the armor everyone wore was the plate armor forged by the most advanced alloy technology. But he didn't expect that within 200 meters, he could still be pierced by the opponent's crossbow arrows.

After taking out this crossbow arrow and looking at it, I found that this crossbow arrow actually used a three-edged armor-piercing design, but it was specially prepared for heavy cavalry or heavy infantry, it seems that the other party has indeed been taking the Republic of China as an imaginary enemy, and is committed to the study of countermeasures. In addition to the high cost and slow shooting speed, I have to say that this kind of rhubarb crossbow is indeed very powerful.

After savoring it, I felt that it was not the same thing, after all, earlier, the Republic of China exported a batch of strong ballista cars to Lu Bu. It was a war weapon that had been eliminated, and it was sold to Lu Bu along with the Yuan Rong crossbow. This kind of strong crossbow is characterized by long range, great power and strong penetration.

After that, Lü Bu fought a defeated battle, and naturally a small number of these weapons also fell into the hands of the Han Republic. It is not difficult to imitate them with their abilities. But they don't want them to use that kind of strong crossbow car as a blueprint, and after being lightweight, with the manufacturing technology of the big yellow crossbow, they created this improved version of the big yellow crossbow, which is worthy of admiration.

After Li Tong listened to Guan Yu's words, he couldn't refute anything. The opponent's strong crossbow is indeed very powerful, if it is combined with artillery and firearms, it even covers long-range, medium-range and short-range coordinated offensives, and even includes hand-to-hand combat.

The opponent's tactical thinking is also improving, and it does not continue to use the soldier as cannon fodder. It's a pity that the difference in the generation of weapons between the two sides is too far apart, so the result of such a crushing result came out.

"So, are you going to attack Dingling now?" Seeing that the enemy army had retreated into Dingling County, Li Tong asked further.

"You can let the artillery shoot, the other side doesn't seem to have more artillery!" Guan Yu nodded.

He had already looked at the wall with his binoculars, and saw that it did not have any defensive weapons, and it seemed that the artillery had been completely captured by them. The only thing to worry about is the street fighting after opening the gate, but it's not a big deal.

Not long after, under the bombardment of mortars, the gate also fell to the ground unwillingly. The entire Dingling County has been completely exposed to the attack, and the only thing that makes Guan Yu strange is that the other party did not leave Dingling County, and did not even send troops to garrison on the city wall, which made him very suspicious of the other party's intentions.

"Could it be that the other party plans to make a desperate bet and fight in the streets with his own army?" Guan Yu couldn't help muttering.

"Fight and fight, and our soldiers will not be afraid of street fighting!" Li Tong said indifferently, after all, street fighting is a bit similar to mountain warfare, the terrain is complex and the field of vision is narrow. The soldiers of the Chinese Republic themselves were born in mountain warfare, and of course there would not be much trouble in street fighting.

"Be careful, go into town!" Guan Yu nodded, but after giving the order for the sake of prudence, he began to command the slaughter into the city.

As soon as I entered the city, I immediately realized that something was wrong, after all, the whole city was too quiet. Not only were there no half of the defenders, but it seemed that the people were all hiding in their houses. It's this situation that's so bad, I don't know where the enemy is, I can't say which house I'm going to kill suddenly, it's a very bad situation.

"Damn, even if we clean up more than 10,000 people, how can there still be more than 20,000 in this Huangfu Song Department, right? With more than 20,000 soldiers, so many logistical supplies and soldiers, Dingling County is so small, how did they hide? Li Tong also felt that this matter was very strange.

"General be careful!" At this time, it was a soldier who stood directly in front of him, and as soon as the words fell, a crossbow bolt shot directly through the armor on his body, killing him.

Along the trajectory, everyone couldn't help but look at it at once, but it turned out that they found nothing. There were no enemies, no firing ports, and it was very difficult to wonder how the bolt was fired. And the only soldier who knew about this matter had also been shot and could not be verified.

"It's authentic! Be careful with the surrounding ground or houses! In his mind, Guan Yu kept thinking about the tactics and strategies of defending the city, and soon thought of this possibility.

Tunnel warfare is a tactic that uses villages or even cities as strongholds to create a network of tunnels that communicate in tandem and carry out covert operations. In fact, the tactic of tunnels was used in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Yuan Shao had a digging battalion under his command, which specialized in digging tunnels to conquer cities.

Nowadays, the use of tunnels as a means of defense is also wonderful. Not to mention that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, many wealthy families always had a sense of crisis, and built a secret passage or secret room at home that could lead to the outside, so that they could hide or escape in times of crisis.

By expanding and reinforcing these passages, they can become strong fortifications. In military academies, this kind of tunnel construction has been used, mainly as a means of passive defense in the face of severe situations. But it is precisely because of this that Guan Yu can associate this tactic from a crossbow arrow that he doesn't know where to shoot.

However, this also gave him a bit of a headache, he didn't know the situation of the tunnel at all, and he didn't know where the entrance to the tunnel was, so it was easy to fall into passivity if he went rashly to explore. Not to mention that now the enemy is dark and I am clear, which makes it difficult for the headquarters to prevent those hidden arrows that are hidden in the tunnels and shot at any time.

"General, we have captured a group of soldiers, we might as well torture them......," Li Tong proposed.

"It's okay, select a group of soldiers and torture them separately!" Although Guan Yu didn't think they could know much, it was better than nothing at this stage. Looking at this quiet city, he felt that it was like a turtle. It was nothing in front of the male lion, but it was all shrunk in the turtle shell, not knowing where to enter.

"If you don't just take a mortar and blast it all the way along this main road, even if it's a turtle shell, you can just blow it to pieces!" Chen Tao proposed a violent response.

If you want to say that there is actually another means, that is, to directly set fire to the entire Dingling County! Or just cover it with fire and smash it all here! However, in addition to the enemy army, there are about 50,000 people in this county, whether it is from the perspective of Tianhe or humanitarianism, it is obviously not appropriate to do so.

The troops of the Huaxia Republic are a rebel army, which never slaughters the people, and even gives enough money even for purchases. In terms of propaganda, they are a righteous army that has come to save the suffering people, and once the massacre begins, then the image is completely ruined. Not to mention that if the other side strengthens propaganda, it will be able to make the people completely on their side, and then the whole army will fall into the tide of the all-people war of resistance, whether it is for the subsequent war of liberation or the digestion of the occupied areas, it will bring great trouble.

Speaking of which, Huangfu Song is a little tired and shameless. Obviously, now it is to use the people of the entire Dingling County as a meat shield to force Guan Yu not to dare to bombard or burn here.

"Okay, just bomb me all the way along the main road!" Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, anyway, the cannonballs were enough, so he agreed to Chen Tao's proposal.

The mortars were quickly put into place, and firing quickly began. The three mortars fired non-stop, and in a short time the entire main road was shattered. Not only that, but also directly bombarded the three tunnels, revealing their true faces.

The enemy army is like those moles, constantly moving and dodging inside, and it looks so funny from the outside.

The tunnels near the main road were thus identified, and unless they were built to a certain extent, it would be difficult to maintain them under such a strong bombardment. Many of these tunnels were obviously dug out temporarily, and they were not well reinforced, so there was no danger.

Using this method, Guan Yubu quickly investigated the four main roads directly until they ensured that the main roads facing the street were completely emptied. Even Guan Yu was ruthless, and directly blasted the entire yamen into a flat ground.

At this point, he climbed the ruins on the side of the yamen, and shouted with a megaphone: "Huangfu Yizhen, you have been surrounded." If you don't want your soldiers to suffer losses and become sinners through the ages, you can quickly come out and surrender! ”

After a short time, a number of soldiers slowly walked out, raising their hands to indicate that there were no weapons in their hands.

"Where's Huangfu Song?" Seeing that Huangfu Song didn't come out for a long time, Guan Yu couldn't help but ask.

"General Huangfu and General Wang are in the secret passage under the general, and they have fallen!" One of the school officials said helplessly. Huangfu Song and Wang Ling were hiding in the secret passage under the yamen, that part had been completely destroyed, and the two of them were afraid that they had been buried alive, and they should not survive anyway.

Guan Yu didn't expect it to be such a dramatic scene, seeing that since most of the enemy troops had surrendered, he could only order the surrender of prisoners to appease the local people. (To be continued.) )
