27. Overture to Nightmares

"Resist, brothers, we also have reinforcements, we will win!"

Even if you say that, I'm afraid that even the person who spoke doesn't think so, after all, the bloody facts are right in front of you.

All around, there were the corpses of the robes, the corpses of their dead eyes, some of which still had a warm breath, while others had turned into cold things in the cold wind, no different from the various meats frozen in the cellar in winter.

The living people are still trying to support, they mechanically wield the weapons in their hands, they don't know how to deal enough damage to the enemy in front of them, their brains are numb, their bodies are stiff, and the only thing they know is that if they don't wield the weapons in their hands, then they will definitely die, and probably die very miserably, just like those who have fallen.

But how long can a person in this state last? Especially there is still no pig's foot halo to save zài.

So it didn't take long for this man, who had been shouting that reinforcements would definitely come, to fall on the battlefield.

Not long after he fell, he felt as if he had a faint glimpse of about five hundred people running from the north......

The situation on the battlefield did not look good for the motley army under the command of Li Shushi.

The enemy was as rumored to be, although it seemed that there was almost no discipline, and it was all with a fierce courage to move forward, and it could even be said that the Xianbei infantry did not need armor and shields at all, and they advanced entirely with the bodies of their comrades in front of them as shields - or their own, and then cut through the armor and body of the enemy with the sharp blades in their hands.

The soldiers of the state army did not understand why the weapons were so sharp when they were in the hands of the enemy. But in their hands, it turned into a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, and some of them were even pits that scattered at the touch of a button. Although this is somewhat less amazing than the fact that the corpses of enemies will disintegrate and scatter, anyone will feel chills in the face of such a non-human enemy.

Not to mention that after the battle lasted for a while, about 500 Xianbei infantry rushed from the north, although they were not put into the battlefield here for the time being, but it caused a lot of impact on Lu Bu's subordinates, who were originally hanging the Xianbei cavalry.

Of course, Li Shushi didn't think this kind of thing was incomprehensible, in fact, he had already expected this when he first asked Liao Hua to tell everyone that it was allowed to replace the head with weapons, if those people took new and sharp weapons to redeem huàn rewards. Instead, he will be arrested by Yousi on charges of taking credit. Depending on the severity of the offense, the maximum sentence may be by hanging.

In fact, this is very easy to understand, just like Li Shushi's divine art. Sharp Gold can also increase the sharpness of a weapon, and if you use this spell on a weapon over time. It can also make ordinary weapons gradually turn into divine weapons. Improve weapon quality. The sharp weapons in the hands of those Xianbei infantry are obviously the same thing. It's just that the kind of energy that can make the weapon sharper is obviously based on the premise of depleting the quality of the weapon, so when the energy dissipates, the only thing left is naturally broken copper and iron.

Of course. This also explains from another point of view why the enemy only has infantry and no archers - the bowstrings necessary to make all kinds of long and short bows cannot withstand the destruction of this corrosive energy, and the bowstring without elasticity naturally cannot allow the arrows to obtain sufficient kinetic energy transformation, and as a result, these mutated non-humans can only play this "shock tactic".

Although with the opponent's strange body, the lethality that this dignified tactic can cause can be said to be extremely powerful.

It looks like the stronger side doesn't need tactics or special grades at all, and can solve the battle with a flat A all the way - because it has a crushing strength gap, it can be so willful!

"However, it looks very different from those ghosts in Luoyang's underground, should it be said that it is really a copycat, basically all the characteristics are almost the same, although there are some headaches, but it is still good news."

Shaking the white feather fan in his hand, Li Shushi ignored the fierce battle in front of him, but instead breathed a sigh of relief and showed a little smile.

He really should make such an expression, after all, the fact that he can be sure that his corpse qi strategy can have a complete effect on those Xianbei infantry is extremely important for the next battle, and it can even be called a strategic discovery.

If this is not the case, not only will the battle in front of us become more difficult, but even the intention of continuing to go north into the grasslands after the war will need to be reconsidered, and there is a high possibility that it will be abandoned.

If the battle had taken place on an open battlefield, Li Shushi doubted that his troops would have been in trouble in the first round of enemy attacks.

Now that the corpse qi can still play its due role, the threat that the enemy can pose to this ragtag army is immediately reduced by three or four percent - just like facing the monsters in the game, there may only be a dozen points of offensive and defensive difference between not breaking the defense and breaking the defense, and the difference in the results is very different, one is a desperate battle, and the other is at least a hopeful battle.

Although the enemy's main force has been pressed up, it has caused extremely great pressure on this motley army, so that Zhang Xiu and even Tong Yuan have to rush to the front line to command - of course, in Li Shushi's opinion, these two are not so much running to the front line to command the battle, but rather looking for the enemy's generals to vent their anger, just like a Zhangba snake spear strung with sugar gourds strung with four enemies, or a big axe constantly leaves deep wounds on the enemy's body Zilong Jiang and Xu Gongming.

But when Li Shushi re-transformed into the legendary "debuff machine" he used to be, all the soldiers on the front line could feel that the originally difficult battle seemed to be immediately much easier, even if the enemy still moved forward bravely and fought with a frightening dull gaze and even ended up together, but the threat they could cause was decreasing.

Yanmen is a big Han border fortress, whether it is an old qualified border soldier or an ordinary person. Most of them are not lacking in bloody genes, and they have long been fighting with fierce enemies from the grasslands in bitter cold places, and they do not lack reasons to fight to the death with the enemy.

The previous despair was because they could not see the hope of victory, or even the hope of killing the enemy in front of them, which made their morale drop again and again, and even had a feeling of instability, making the entire defense line look shaky. But now, when they find that the enemy seems to have "weakened" for some reason, they naturally want to fight back, and return it to their enemy with the humiliation and unwillingness they had before, so that they can also experience that desperate feeling.

Well, the enemy doesn't necessarily feel that way. After all, they can be counted as non-human beings. But the men from the Northland don't care so much anymore, they just know that they need to vent their anger on their enemies now, and win the final victory in this war under the leadership of those brave generals. Wash away the shame of the robes.

The situation was unfavorable from the original. Because a small change has become today's anxiety. This is the terrifying power of the strategy of corpse qi, so Li Shushi will regard this strategy as a real strategic strategy, and it is unsurpassed.

The only pity is that when facing the ghost, not only does it not show its strength. And it has become the other party's "Ten Perfect Supplements", which makes people really depressed, but it's not like some games, some skills and characters that appear in the early stage, although they can get a lot of scenes and opportunities to show their faces in the early stage, but as time goes by, they become less and less zài and are finally shelved.

It's okay, it's okay!

However, this alone could not guarantee Li Shushi's victory in the war.

Lu Bu's department, which had been expected to quickly solve the Xianbei cavalry and flank the enemy with the Chinese army, had to abandon its original goal and turn to deal with the enemy's reinforcements, so that those reinforcements could not go to the battlefield here, breaking the already delicate battlefield balance.

That is to say, the only thing Li Shucheng can rely on is the border soldiers stationed in Pingcheng, the Yanmen County soldiers and the personal guard troops as the trump card in his hand, and those merchant guards, probably playing soy sauce are already regarded as looking down on them, and the caravan guards who have been a little frightened are now only afraid that even the spirit of mending the knife that they still had before has been lost, maybe for them now, they can finish the soy sauce in the remaining time of the battlefield battle safely, and be a quiet onlooker.

However, it is a pity that the enemy's main general obviously did not intend to let them go, although the division of troops was not much, but he still adopted an attitude of killing them, which not only slightly relieved the pressure on the frontal battlefield of the state army, but also helped Li Shushi save the strength of those merchants who were extremely transparent in weighing various interests.

After all, these Xianbei people have made it clear that they want to kill all enemies, and they may become puppets in the hands of the other party after death, and continue to plague their homes and relatives, which is really unbearable, it is better to fight to the death.

Although the combat effectiveness of the caravan guards is limited after all, now that the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei infantry has been weakened, these guards who have once again been aroused to be brave can still have a good appearance, especially after confirming that those broken swords can also be exchanged for the promised rewards from the government, they are more active, and even seem to be able to eat the enemies attacking them independently.

This is all good news, but there is still not enough for Li Shushi's idea of wanting to win this war.

"In that case, it's time to invite out the 'King of War' of this era!"

Well, although it is said that the shell explosion scene that night was the culprit that caused a certain girl to faint, but the Xuanwu Imperial Sister seemed to scoff at this statement, and expressed the hope that Li Shushi could continue to use it boldly and boldly, even if the power was greater, it would not be a problem, and if Su Xiaololi felt that the materials were not enough or it was inconvenient to make zuò, she could also catch the white tiger meow to help.

"Meow Meow ~ Shushi Meow is going to prepare for the test of the cannon Meow ~ The first cannon is handed over to Meow how to meow, Meow is very interested in new toys Meow ~"

For this kind of magical existence that appeared next to him without knowing when, Li Shushi didn't plan to continue to explore, anyway, whether it was Xiaoqiang, Zilongchan, the old fox, the dead ant, or something, they all had immunity to the elusiveness of this grandmaster-level figure known as "the most mysterious weapon building master in Bingzhou".

Of course, the reason why there is such a situation seems to be another reason in Li Shushi's opinion - in other words, whether it is Xiaoqiang or Zilongchan, why should they breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the white tiger meow. What kind of fuss are you going to make with your "I'm finally free" expression!

Ahem, so even if the white tiger meow suddenly appears here to sell cuteness, everyone can look straight ahead with both eyes and do nothing as if nothing happened.

The Golden Cannon was erected.

Compared with the indiscriminate bombardment that night, this time Li Shushi didn't have to waste so much ammunition, after all, now he had a good line of sight, and his Chinese army commander flag was on the top of a small low hill, with enough vision to observe the changes in the battlefield situation and the gathering and dispersion of the enemy.

Of course, even if the Xuanwu Imperial Sister said those words domineeringly, Li Shucheng still didn't have much ammunition in his hands. After all, the extraction and storage of saltpeter is a technical task. Li Shushi's bean bag is still in the initial stage of development, and it can't be like those traverser immortals, just a space storage equipment can carry hundreds of thousands of troops related to grain and grass armaments.

"Well, adjust your goals. Calculate the approximate distance. As long as the first shot is not too far off, you will be qualified. ”

Even if there is no such complicated formula. However, for the era when books on computing had appeared as early as the end of the Shang Dynasty, and later there was the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", which was constantly supplemented by later generations, slightly more complex calculations have been involved. It's just that it doesn't have a very complete and systematic summary, but classifies it according to some things in life with a pragmatic attitude, so some problems fail to form a good context.

It can be said that the arithmetic foundation of scholars in this era is certainly not comparable to that of high school students in modern society, but compared to those junior high school graduates in the modern empire, the sun never sets is still very capable of winning.

In fact, it is normal to think about it, the Central Plains Dynasty is a big country, and all kinds of taxes need to be counted every year, and if there is no group of good arithmeticians to make overall calculations, it is strange that the country's finances do not have major problems. Not to mention that most of the businessmen who are extremely sensitive to numbers are also experts in this area, if they don't have a good foundation, it will be completely their own problem to be deceived when doing business or sharing profits, and it will be absolutely difficult for the business to grow bigger.

handed over the test cannon to White Tiger Meow, and threw him five cannon shells by the way, as long as he didn't throw them into a place full of his own family, even if he occasionally accidentally injured Li Shushi, he would not be able to see it, anyway, he didn't expect a certain White Tiger Meow to have much accuracy.

After all, even those guards who have been following Li Shushi for a long time, if they want to make each shell accurately hit the target, they need to test the cannon many times before, or have a reserve of various numbers in advance on a fixed gun position.

And if the hit rate of White Tiger Meow is too poor, Li Shushi can naturally regain the right to open the gun.

As for the White Tiger Meow, the sharpshooter hits the target, and every time he can make the enemy hit the soul with one shot?

In other words, how could Li Shushi let go of such a good cannon (ku) hand (li), there is no need to work and eat experience, this good thing is rare.

Of course, he's also going to have to prepare new strategic spells while White Tiger Meow prepares - yes, he's going to set the sky on fire again.

"Boom~"

It's a pity that before Li Shushi could try to use the formation knowledge he learned to expand the power and coverage area of the heavenly fire, a huge explosion resounded throughout the battlefield, causing a little hesitation on both sides that were still fighting - although most of the people on the side of the miscellaneous army had heard the muffled thunder that night, after all, it was a little far away, far less clear than today. And for those Xianbei infantry, this cannon naturally evoked the residual memories in their hearts, thinking of the horror at the beginning, and even those Xianbei generals frowned even more when they saw their own people being blown up by shells, so that they temporarily forgot to urge their soldiers to take advantage of this rare opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the miscellaneous army to vent the fear in their hearts.

It's a pity that there is no if in this world, the Xianbei people failed to grasp this opportunity, but on the side of the miscellaneous army, whether it is Zhao Yun or Xu Huang, they are all people who have experienced the battle that night, and even tried a few shots in person, so naturally they will not be frightened by the cannon sound that sounded worse than that night. Instead, he took the opportunity to shout and took the lead in launching a counter-charge.

Although the sound of the cannon is terrifying, because it is a weapon to attack the enemy, no matter how terrible it is, it is still a comrade-in-arms, and it is also a new force, and it can also become a morale-boosting agent, so the miscellaneous army immediately returned to normal, followed the footsteps of the generals and launched a fierce attack, and by the time the generals of the Xianbei Army noticed the enemy's movements and took countermeasures, the gap in momentum had been completely reversed.

Li Shushi also sent Dian Wei, Xu Chu and Nero Jiang to lead a personal guard force of 200 people to raid and divide the enemy troops. Don't ask for the number of enemies to kill. But to disrupt the enemy's position and expand the confusion of the enemy's army.

After all, the generals of the Xianbei army were already a little reluctant to command their subordinates to carry out an effective counterattack, because they also needed to worry about whether they would also become the target of the next shell.

In fact, the next loud bang blew up a high-ranking general of the Xianbei army who was commanding the battle surrounded by Xianbei infantry into the sky.

Well, I don't know if it was luck to reach the level of 5S. Or is it because White Tiger Meow really deserves to be an expert in the use of war weapons. All in all. Even though there were only five shells, White Tiger Meow still hit a result that made everyone jaw-dropping.

With the joint efforts of the officers and men of the whole army, the Xianbei infantry, which had been on the offensive, had to fight and retreat. Although it has not yet collapsed, it is already showing signs of fatigue - of course, it may want to hide out of the range of the Golden Fire Cannon.

It's just that Li Shushi wouldn't have imagined that in addition to the two sides who were fighting, there were people around the battlefield who were paying attention to this battle.

"Hey, hey, hey! My eldest lady, you won't faint again! Get up, if you don't get up, I'll throw you to the man, and I'll not be responsible if anything happens!" ”

"Xiao Hei is so strict, this time he just feels a little uncomfortable, there is no need to be so exaggerated."

"Then who knows? Anyway, people don't know if Xiaohuang really fainted because you were uncomfortable, or did you do it to attract someone? People saw very clearly that Xiao Huang was still there to tempt the little guy when he was awake, and finally found that he was about to make the fake come true, so he pretended to be angry, it was too bad, how could my little Huang be so scheming. ”

"These are all Xiao Hei, you made something out of nothing, it didn't happen at all!"

"Hmph~ What the facts look like, only the parties know best. If you don't want people to misunderstand, hurry up and truthfully find out what happened when you were underground in Luoyang, otherwise I don't mind continuing to misunderstand like this. ”

"That's a good idea, but I'm not going to be fooled!"

"Yo~ The little girl at the beginning became smart when she grew up. Sure enough, it's a little girl who is more fun. ”

"Dead Xiao Hei looks at the trick, if I don't kill you today, I'm going to tie you up and throw you into the man's bed!"

"Huh?! Xiaohuang has become so energetic, this is not normal, could it be that Xiaobai is lazy! ”

Thereupon......

"Shushi Meow, is it okay to give Meow a few more shells~ Meow hasn't played enough Meow~" Sure enough, this kind of fake public and private meow is the best~

"Okay, but the enemy seems to be about to retreat out of range, so you can't hit the enemy."

"It doesn't matter meow ~ a qiē wrap on meow's body good meow ~"

So, White Tiger Meow alone took care of the movement of the Golden Fire Cannon-although it became much easier to move the Golden Fire Cannon, but on weekdays, let alone let it reach the current moving speed, even if it was only an ordinary speed, it would take twenty or thirty big men to work hard to pull and pull to achieve it.

Should it be said that it is indeed non-human, it is worthy of being non-human?

It wasn't long before the familiar sound echoed across the battlefield again.

Of course, this time, on the edge of the distant battlefield, there were no more frightened voices, but a slight smile begging for mercy.

Well,A certain lady who always appears in the image of Shake S now seems to have become the legendary Shake M in front of the more powerful.,Fortunately, there is no third party around.,Otherwise, it would probably be wiped out.。

"Although that little guy won this battle, no matter how you look at it, the future is worrying."

The Xianbei people in the distance seemed to be defeated, except for a few horsemen who successfully broke through, most of the members, including their main general, failed to break out of the encirclement of the Bingzhou people. It's just that this kind of war, which is destined to have no prisoners, may have been brilliant, but it also caused a lot of battle losses to the state army, not to mention those caravan guards.

Even if it weren't for Tong Yuan's last great might, he shot the enemy's three generals in a row and defeated the enemy's final counterattack, perhaps the battle damage would be even more unacceptable.

"Xiaohuang, why do you say that?" The Xuanwu Imperial Sister, who was still bound by the tortoise shell, had no playful look on her face at this time.

Of course, with her current state, such an expression makes Xiaoguo even more prominent.

"Don't you think that this victory is entirely dependent on that little guy's survival, and if the human army didn't have his storage, would they still have the ability to win today's battle?"

Pan Sen: Once again, I regret not buying an Android machine...... Woowoowoo...... (To be continued......)
