Gunpowder blasting is a good idea, but how much gunpowder is needed?

At the beginning of the war, gunpowder was distributed to all armies according to Ma Hong's requirements, but more than eighty percent of the gunpowder was distributed to Ganning's navy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhu Ran knew that the engineering weapons of the Chu State were very powerful, and the catapults, rushing carts and knife carts had great lethality in front of the battle, so he specially prepared in advance and collected all the rolling stones within a radius of thirty miles from the border between Changsha and Yangzhou, and cast them into stone walls and stone mills to defend the weapons of the Chu State. Now that Pang Tong and Liu Ye are leading the troops, the weapons are facing the stone mill and the stone wall, the rushing car and the knife car are naturally useless, and even the catapult has no effect, even if the stone is collected and projected, it will still be used by Zhu Ran to pile up a higher stone wall. Although these days, Pang Tong and Liu Ye have seized the gap to constantly harass Zhu Ran, but if you really attack it, I am afraid it will not be easy, because it is difficult for you to defeat a person who has prepared in advance, especially a person who is not easy to deal with.

Zhu Ran is a person who knows that he is weak, and the soldiers in Jiangdong are obviously inferior to the Chu army in foot combat, so Zhu Ran faces the army of Liu Ye and Pang Tong several times that of him, and defending is his best way, what he wants to do is to stay up with Liu Ye and Pang Tong, and boil Liu Ye and Pang Tong until they run out of food. So he collected bark and grass roots in advance to prepare for a long and protracted battle.

Liu Ye and Pang Tong tirelessly wanted to burn more edible things in Zhu Ran's territory, send in a group of people, destroy some things, and then kill a group of people, of course, if a group of people die, they will eat less food. Zhu Ran also understands this truth, but for Zhu Ran, people are also food, and human flesh and blood are also food, so in private, he ordered the soldiers who cleaned up the battlefield to make the enemy's corpses into grain and grass, of course, this news cannot be known to the outside world, and there are very few soldiers who know these things.

"General, it's time for dinner."

The soldier served the meal.

Zhu Ran looked at the food and nodded, and said to the guards: "You don't need to prepare my meals at night." ”

"General, why is that?"

"That's enough for me to eat two."

The guard nodded and stepped back.

Zhu Ran licked his dry lips, and just took a bite of the pancake, when suddenly there was a loud noise in his ears, which shocked Zhu Ran's heart, and his ears roared, he walked out of the camp tent, only to see the soldiers running around with their heads in their hands, the stones in the air flying wildly, and the guards panicked with iron shields to block the falling stones for Zhu Ran.

In an instant, Zhu Ran almost understood what was going on, he had long heard that the Chu army used to use an extremely explosive attack weapon, and after investigation, he learned that it was a thing called gunpowder by the Chu army, which could explode, and the explosive power was very strong and destructive. He also knew that this kind of thing was made by Ma Hong, although Zhu Ran spent a lot of effort, but he still didn't figure out how this kind of thing was made. Although Zhu Ran also investigated how to make this kind of thing, it has not been successful.

In front of the Chu army, Pang Tong looked at the blasted stone mill, smiled, and then looked at Yang Yi and said, "It seems that the amount of gunpowder is not too much." ”

"I've used a hundred pounds of gunpowder."

"Tomorrow blow up again in this place with fifty pounds, for five days in a row, at the same time, in the same position, I will make the enemy wait in fear."

"Let the enemy suffer in fear, wait in fear, a good way, but a little more gunpowder is consumed."

"The current gunpowder is just a thing that creates fear for us, people are often full of fear of the unknown, and gunpowder is an unknown thing for them, soldiers with a heart of fear will definitely be afraid to fight, now I want to help Zhu Ran train and train an army full of fear."

In the next five consecutive days, the bypass regularly and fixed-point to the stone wall and stone mill of the Eastern Wu army to put gunpowder, the deafening sound, the strong explosion sound made the Eastern Wu army dare not approach again, when the sixth day came, it should have been the time of the explosion, but the explosion did not come for a long time, just when the Eastern Wu army was happy in their hearts, Pang Tong ordered 3,000 infantry to climb the blasted stone and stone wall with a dare to die and rushed into the Eastern Wu military formation.

For a while, the sound of killing was soaring, and the Eastern Wu army, which had not had time to prepare, was scattered in an instant, and Sun Huan, who was guarding the checkpoint, hurriedly organized troops to counterattack.

It is not a dream to protect a country, it always depends on blood and iron in the end. The soldiers who fell in the river of war blood, the sound of death floated overhead, the sound of rushing and killing continued, the crossbow of the Chu army shot forward frantically, and there were layers of corpses lying on the ground, there were Eastern Wu soldiers, and there were Chu people, but there were more corpses of the Eastern Wu army. On the uneven sandy ground blown up by gunpowder, the waves of attackers dispersed, rolled, and rushed forward like a flood, the flames swept the earth, and the sound of arrows flying obliquely from the sky and breaking through the air became closer and closer, and they were densely splashed on the bodies of the attackers, and fell! Climb down! Offensive! No one retreats, and the water will never be able to retreat, because the torrent is unwilling, and the water of the Chu State, the torrent of the Chu State, pushes forward, scattering wave after wave of enemies. The archers of the Wu army shot arrows one by one, their hands were blurred with flesh and blood, their arms were so painful that it was difficult to hold the sword anymore, when the Chu people rushed up, they were already tired and could not hold the sword, they were easily crushed by the torrent, turned into flesh and blood and lay on the ground, trampled by the Chu people and continued to advance forward.

Sun Huan roared loudly and ordered: Those who retreat will be killed.

He saw it, saw that the fighting spirit of the Chu people was much stronger than his soldiers, and they kept advancing, while the Eastern Wu soldiers, who were superior in numbers, were pressed back step by step, which should not be.

"Shield soldiers, combined shield !!"

Sun Huan shouted, and more than a thousand shield hands gathered together to form three iron walls.

"Rush !!"

"Kill !!"

"Hammer! Smash!!! ”

Hundreds of iron hammers weighing about seven catties flew out of the hands of the Chu army and smashed on the iron shield, with a fierce collision sound, the shield soldiers fell one after another, and the death squad of the Chu army did not deserve the shield.

They threw iron hammers, held flying axes, tied the ring-headed knives used in close combat, approached the shield soldiers, stepped on the iron shields, and pounced forward, like vicious wolves, tearing and howling, completely overwhelming the momentum of the Eastern Wu soldiers.
