Chapter 379: Rocket Soldier

"Yun Chang, when do you think the Yellow Turban Army will attack?"

Looking at the Yellow Turban Army barracks in the distance, Lu Bu asked. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the Yellow Turban Army camp looming in the distance, Guan Yu thought for a moment and said: "The morale of the Yellow Turban Army has been severely frustrated by Fengxian, I am afraid that it will take some time to repair, if the Yellow Turban Army waves its troops to attack Gaoyang at this time, it will be in vain and suffer heavy losses!" ”

Guan Yu's prediction was not wrong, but his resourcefulness was still slightly inferior to that of Du Xiang, a man in later generations.

"Well, that's pretty much the same as it says in the war book." Nodding appreciatively, Lu Bu also felt that Guan Yu was right, and after nodding, Lu Bu stretched his waist and said with a smile: "Yun Chang, I'm tired, go rest first." ”

After speaking, Lu Bu trotted and ran down the city.

"Fengxian, the big war is coming, don't look at the Water Margin too late."

Guan Yu, who knew that Lu Bu was not going to sleep, shouted at the top of his voice.

Guan Yu said that the Water Margin, is the later generations of the Water Margin, at that time in Tewotai, Zhang Yi told Da Qiao and Zhang Ning the story, part of the story is the Water Margin, those have been recorded in literature and history, and compiled into a book, and now Zhang Yi in Fenyang, has begun to use the method on the advanced forging manual to make paper, even the movable type printing has been made by Zhang Yi, now the Dingping army to convey the order, has begun to slowly replace the silk cloth with paper, Lu Bu now has a story book made of movable type printing in his hand, What is written above is the story of the Water Margin, not only Lu Bu, but basically the generals above in the Dingping Army have it.

"Well, I know, Yun Chang, can't you pretend not to know?"

While complaining, Lu Bu sped back to the county office, where there was Lu Bu's separate room, but Guan Yu's residence was in the tent at the North City Gate.

That night, Guan Yu rested early, although Lu Bu wanted to read Zhang Yi's "masterpiece" at night, but the story was only a hundred thousand words, Lu Bu had read a little bit before, and the rest of Lu Bu had finished reading it at ten o'clock, so the two of them didn't sleep late.

Fortunately, they went to bed early, because as soon as the sun appeared the next day, Zhang Mancheng's army took action.

As soon as he learned of this situation, Guan Yu couldn't help but be taken aback, he didn't understand why Zhang Mancheng dared to attack the city now, because in this situation, it would be very disadvantageous for Zhang Mancheng to attack the city eagerly!

But anyway, the Yellow Turban Army began to attack the city, Guan Yu ran up the city wall without having breakfast, and it didn't take long for Lu Bu to run up to the city gate tower with Fang Tian's halberd in hand.

casually handed a flatbread with pickles to Guan Yu, and when it was over, Lu Bu found another one from his body where he didn't know it, looking at the earthy yellow outside the city, Lu Bu scolded while eating: "Damn this Zhang Mancheng, why is he so anxious to send him to death, alas, Yun Chang, why don't you eat it, doesn't the lord often say it, the body is the capital of battle, you can't be hungry, eat quickly!" After eating, let's kill together! Eat! ”

Urged by Lu Bu, Guan Yu, who had no intention of eating, had to start eating, but Guan Yu's eyes never left the Yellow Turban Army outside the city.

Guan Yu came to the battlement wall and looked out of the city, only to see a group of Yellow Turban soldiers, gathered into a strict phalanx, and then advanced towards Gaoyang.

The Yellow Turban Army lined up only 400 steps away from the Huguan city wall, and looked down from the city tower, only to see the banner rolling like a cloud, and the cold light shining like snow.

Seeing this scene, Guan Yu couldn't help frowning, the enemy is huge, and the outcome of this battle is unpredictable!

"Fengxian, is the Hundred Beast Camp ready?"

Guan Yu turned his head and asked Lu Bu, who had a normal face on the side.

Lu Bu glanced at Guan Yu and replied, "Don't worry, my soldiers have never slackened!" As long as you give an order, my Hundred Beast Camp can tear up these dirt chickens and dogs in an instant. ”

"Hmm," After nodding silently, Guan Yu said in a voice that only he could hear, "I hope I can't use your Hundred Beast Camp." ”

Guan Yu and Lu Bu had discussed before, once the city gate was lost, the Hundred Beast Battalion would have to go up as soon as possible, completely destroy the enemy who had entered the city, and at the same time kill it to relieve the pressure on the city wall, but once it really reached that point, Guan Yu estimated that Gaoyang City would not be able to defend it.

"Look, General, the Yellow Turban Thieves are on the move!"

Just as Guan Yu was talking to Lu Bu, Zhang Mancheng had already given the order to let the 10,000-strong team on the first side start attacking.

The 10,000 attacking troops formed two phalanxes and slowly approached Gaoyang, three hundred meters, two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters.

At a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, the soldiers of the two phalanxes made a movement at the same time, only to see the sword and shield soldiers in the front line raise their shields at the same time, and the soldiers carrying the ladder and pushing the rushing cart behind them were also protected by other sword and shield soldiers with shields.

Zhang Mancheng's team was trained, and their move was to defend against arrows shot down from the city wall, but they didn't know that it was not just arrows that greeted them next.

When Lu Bu, who was standing on the tower of the city gate, saw this scene, he couldn't help but crack his mouth and said with a smile: "What a good target!" I didn't have such a good target when I was training! ”

After speaking, Lu Bu immediately turned his head and ordered the herald beside him; "Order the rocketeers to give me a hard shot at these two targets!"

The artillery in Lu Bu's mouth had to be an archer with a gunpowder bag, Zhang Yi had received a reminder from Chen Gong before, knowing that Gao Yang was very important, and specially allocated the gunpowder bag that had just been made to Guan Yu, and Guan Yu's three battalions were already elite, and they had been trained to match gunpowder bags with arrows before, and the Hundred Beast Battalion was even more so, so Lu Bu was so excited.

The herald received the order and immediately gave the order to the rocket soldiers in the city with the command flag in hand.

At the same time, the observer who was responsible for indicating the direction of the target for the rocket troops had already conveyed the target to the catapult unit through the flag hand.

"Bearing xxx, distance xxx, launch!"

With the roar of the officer, a series of flying arrows with fiery snakes shot out from inside the city, crossed the city wall and fell towards the Yellow Turban Army array outside.

Guan Yu, who was standing on the tower of the city gate, saw such a scene for the first time, and suddenly felt dizzy, and even a fierce general like Lu Bu was shocked when he saw such a scene for the first time.

At this time, the sky was not fully bright, and three hundred fiery snakes swept through the sky like meteors, and the scene was naturally extremely spectacular.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The next scene of the spectacle was a series of violent explosions, in which many Yellow Turbans were smashed to the ground, their shields shattered, blood splattered everywhere, and then a wail rang out, and it was the wounded soldiers expressing their pain.
