Chapter 87: Xinye Attack and Defense (3)

Effect! Still amazing?

Li Xingze's words frightened Meng Haima, and he didn't have seen the Yuan army's return artillery, just so thousands of soldiers and horses, after they dispersed, the return cannon couldn't hit people, and he could dodge it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I didn't believe what Li Xingze said at all, Meng Haima held the right to be a military advisor and had a rare time, and it was over if he had fun, and there was nothing to lose anyway. Thinking of this, Meng Haima didn't care that he was tossing around here, and went to Xinye not far from Xinye to see the movements of the Yuan army.

Fortunately, the host of Lumen Temple brought him a few more cans of fierce fire oil before Li Xingze left, if he hadn't thought of this thing, he wouldn't have dared to boast about Haikou in front of Meng Haima.

Li Xingze instructed several soldiers to go all over the mountains to find stones as heavy as the fierce fire oil in this porcelain inventable, and until evening, they only found a dozen pieces.

"Li Junshi, just a little stone, is it useful?"

Meng Haima squinted at the stone and asked strangely. Seeing that Li Xingze and the people were busy all afternoon, it was not until he came to see it just now, good guy, he found more than a dozen stones, and they were strangely shaped, and they were not big, you must know that the stones of the Yuan army were two or three times the size of this kind of stone.

Li Xingze also knew that Meng Haima looked down on the size of this stone, so he didn't explain it at the moment, but continued to say mysteriously: "Marshal Meng will know when it gets dark!" ”

Now the entire Xiangyang Red Turban Army knows that Li Junshi is bored, and he wants to have fun digging a return cannon, anyway, his vision has changed when he looks at Li Xingze, and he thinks that this military division is still a child, and it is normal to play around, and no one takes it seriously. When Li Xingze wanted to try to return the cannon in the evening, they all crowded over to see the rarity.

Li Xingze was not clear about the range of the return cannon, and planned to use stones to measure the distance first, but the black light blinded the fire, and he also made a mistake for a while, so he found a few Red Turban soldiers to light torches and go to the edge of Xinye City, and told them to be careful, and whoever hit next to them would extinguish the torch.

In fact, the return cannon is to use the principle of levers and other principles to throw the stones into the distance, and put the counterweight stones in front of them, after seeing that the soldiers of the Red Turban Army had already dragged the end of the pole fiercely, Li Xingze stretched out his arm, put it down, and shouted: "Release!" ”

As soon as the hands of several soldiers were loosened, the counterweight stone pressed the end of the pole, the other end of the stone bounced up quickly, and the cloth bag held by the thick rope was lifted up, and the stone in the cloth pocket was gone.

Everyone looked at the Xinye city wall, waited for a long time, none of the torches went out, Li Xingze almost died of depression, originally wanted to surprise the Yuan army at night, but the result was good, I couldn't see the fart at night, and there was no way to adjust it according to the direction and angle of the stone flying.

Meng Haima stood on tiptoe and stared at it with wide eyes for a long time, but he didn't see anything clearly, so he wondered: "I said military advisor, where did you fight?" ”

"I..."

As soon as he was halfway through the words, Li Xingze quickly shut up, so many people are here, if he doesn't know, he will be laughed at to death, after all, there are people from the Ming Sect here, he can't lose the face of the White Lotus Sect, and quickly explained: "The direction is right just now, there are some problems with the coordinates of the parabola!" ”

What's that? Including Meng Haima, all the people around him were stunned, what Li Junshi said, he couldn't help but look at each other, and no one understood.

Looking at the cute expressions of the group of people around him, Li Xingze secretly sweated in his heart, and finally flickered over, they didn't want to think about it, they couldn't see the flight track of the stone in the dark night, and there was a hairy coordinate.

Li Xingze vaguely remembered that he had seen the stone throwers on the Xinye City Wall during the day, which were obviously smaller than the ones he dug up, and they should be small. Meng Haima said that the small return cannon was very powerful, and it could hit a group of people with a bunch of small stones, and it was precisely because of this that the Red Turban Army did not dare to attack easily.

According to the distance in his impression, after readjusting it, Li Xingze asked the soldiers to adjust it again, and after throwing it out, after a while, a torch was extinguished at the bottom of the hillside.

"Yay"

The excited Li Xingze clenched his fists and shouted excitedly. Meng Haima didn't understand this, and when he saw that the torch was extinguished, he hurriedly asked, "Is it almost done?" ”

Li Xingze nodded noncommittally, indeed, after fighting like this a few more times, knowing the trajectory, he can predict the route of the stone throwing, and he can make some adjustments.

Just like that, he fought almost ten times, and according to Li Xingze's estimate, he should be able to fly to the city wall next time, and he should be able to reach the location of the Yuan army's stone thrower.

The Yuan army guarding the city in Xinye was very depressed, and the Red Turban Army was far away from the city wall during the day, looking at them. At night, there were still a few torches lit from a distance, and two or three Red Turban soldiers had recently run into range of their bows and arrows, and were clubbing there.

The Yuan soldiers didn't bother to shoot at them, and they couldn't see clearly at night, it was not easy to think about everyone, on a whim, this group of guards simply didn't sleep, and stood on the top of the city wall to see what these red turban soldiers were busy with.

"Bang"

Such a loud sound startled the soldiers, as if something had smashed from the sky onto a row of weapon shelves not far from the stone thrower, and smashed the wooden spear racks that had been placed there before.

When the soldiers saw a small stone pressed next to the tattered wooden frame, they all looked at each other suspiciously, and no one knew what was going on.

Just as there were more and more onlookers, suddenly something fell from the sky, and a ball of fire in front of everyone's eyes instantly lit up.

Suddenly, the Yuan soldiers who were not frightened by the stain retreated again and again, looking at the people who couldn't extinguish the fire on their bodies after continuous slapping or rolling on the ground, they were all screaming miserably, and they were all stunned and silent, and no one dared to move casually.

It's just that everyone who hasn't caught their breath suddenly heard another sound of the jar cracking, and immediately after, four return cannons were on fire at the same time.

"Run, there's a ghost!"

Immediately, the soldiers shouted out in fright, and their sharp voices pierced through the night sky, and everyone hurriedly ran to the city tower, shouting as they ran. Seeing the fire on the city wall, the Yuan army guarding the city gate below couldn't figure out what was going on above, and they followed them everywhere in confusion.

Meng Haima and the Red Turban Army had long been dumbfounded, and they couldn't imagine that as Li Junshi said, this effect was simply just.

Li Xingze looked at it, and couldn't help but secretly think of Amitabha Buddha in his heart, how many times have people been burned since his debut, it's all killing! When he turned around, he saw that Meng Haima and the others were still dumbfounded, and they opened their mouths one by one, so they hurriedly yelled urgently: "Why are you still stunned, go to attack the city!" ”

"Yes, yes, hurry up!"

Only then did Meng Haima come to his senses, and hurriedly urged the leaders beside him to gather the soldiers of the Red Turban Army to carry the wooden ladder that had been erected during the day, and prepare to attack the city.

The oil did not burn all at once, until they saw that the fire on the city wall was getting smaller, and the people climbed up. As for the Yuan army, whether it was at the head of the city or at the gate of the city, except for the unrecognizable corpses lying on the ground and burned, the rest had already run away.

After seeing the city gate pushed open from the inside, Meng Haima hurriedly turned his head and saw Li Xingze standing not far behind him, but when he put his hands in the wide cuffs very calmly, he hugged his fists and said: "Li Junshi, my old Meng is served!" ”

couldn't help but accept it, even the soldiers of the Red Turban Army who entered the city gate from the two of them secretly glanced at Li Xingze, after all, this scene was too shocking, and he couldn't help but scold himself, and during the day, he also laughed at Li Junshi for being foolish, but he didn't spend a single soldier to take down Xinye, is this still human.

After burning Dengzhou and Xinye, Li Xingze couldn't stop smiling bitterly, this Huguang Province is afraid that it will be burned for him, if the host of Lumen Temple knew that he could burn it so well, I don't know if he would regret giving him the fierce fire oil in the first place.

This time, because there were only a few cans of fierce fire oil, the burning range was not large, but it was not visible in the night, and the cold situation scared people away, so the Yuan army did not suffer much loss except for burning a few unlucky soldiers.

Right now, it's already midnight, after a day of tossing, Li Xingze is also tired, yawned, and was about to find a place to sleep, when the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance at the city gate, and it was particularly loud under the quiet night sky.

"Senior brother, junior brother!"

Li Xingze stood in the bright place, naturally he couldn't see it, but Zhang Junbao saw the junior brother standing inside the city gate, and quickly shouted out, and kept waving his hand.

Why did Zhang Junbao come over at this time, Li Xingze estimated that he would have to come over tomorrow night with Wang Quan and others.

The red turban troops on both sides gave way, Zhang Junbao rode to him, "shh ”

At this moment, Li Xingze was a little puzzled, what did Zhang Junbao mean that Wang Quan did not transfer troops? What's going on, I quickly asked.

It wasn't until Zhang Junbao said what Wang Quan and Zhang Chun meant, that Li Xingze said "oh", and he didn't say anything, but stood there frowning as if he was pondering something.

Wang and Zhang must have been worried that the Dengzhou Red Turban Army would lose too much, so they didn't approve of fighting Xinye, and they didn't send troops over, Li Xingze could still understand, and now he was just thinking that after this Xinye was won so easily, they might have to re-plan next.

"Daoist Zhang, they are too much, why can't they come?"

Li Xingze didn't say anything, but Meng Haima complained anxiously. The king is his own brother, no matter how big the loss is, you have to send people over first, which is good, just leave a word, and don't come over, because they still have a lifelong friendship.

Originally, Li Xingze was still worried about how to plan next, but when he heard Meng Haima's complaints, his eyes suddenly lit up, maybe this time he made a mistake, Wang Quan, Zhang Chun didn't send troops over, but it was a good move.
