Chapter 279: The Crusades of the Eastern Crusade
"In accordance with the edict of His Majesty the Emperor of Great Qin, Meng Tian has a heart of disobedience and colludes with bandits, and I will immediately return to Beijing to accept the examination. Chin this! As for the Golden Fire Cavalry, Zheng Hao will temporarily take the helm! The eunuch who read the decree said, "I'm sorry, General Meng, please get in the car!" ”
It was a prisoner car, although this prisoner car could not lock Meng Tian in the real sense, but the soldiers who pressed Meng Tian were not simple guys, it was a team of 500 soldiers composed of all the strength of the middle stage of Zhenwu, such a team, it is estimated that even Daqin could not form a second one. Of course, if Meng Tian wanted to escape, these people would definitely not be able to stop him, they were completely betting on Meng Tian's loyalty to Daqin.
This time, they made the right bet, after Meng Tian handed over the golden fire cavalry to Zheng Hao, he honestly got into the prisoner car, and it seemed that Zheng Hao didn't need to make a move. After taking over, Zheng Hao began to arm. Meng Tian handed over the Golden Fire Cavalry to himself, although Zheng Hao used the disgraceful means of bribing Zhao Gao during this period, and even secretly surrendered to Zhao Gao in exchange for the position of the commander of the Golden Fire Cavalry, but no matter what, Zheng Hao also made up his mind to guard this border. Now that the strength of the Golden Fire Cavalry is limited, Zheng Hao can no longer use the Alien Sea tactics as before, at least before the Tiangong Base is formed and the Alien Sea is launched.
In half a month, Zheng Hao led the army to repel the three attacks of the Crusaders and the Wolf Clan, but most of the people who attacked were the Wolf Clan, although it was obvious that this was the Crusader Army consuming the strength of Zheng Hao's side. However, there were also a small number of crusaders who participated in the battle, because they found that Zheng Hao's side was as if they didn't need money, and if there were no crusaders, the wolf clan would not dare to approach the city wall at all.
This also surprised Zheng Hao, the ordinary members of the Crusader squad actually had the strength of the True Martial Realm, and the centurion who led the team actually had the strength of the Martial Spirit Realm. In fact, what Zheng Hao didn't know was that when these crusaders set out from Europe, they were actually 100,000 people, but in the end, only the strongest 1,000 people came to the East, and these soldiers were actually the original centurions.
A bad news came, although Zheng Hao knew the news on the third day when Meng Tian was taken away, and if he had gone at that time, he would have had a chance to prevent Fusu from committing suicide, but Fusu's luck was very bad, and it happened to be the most intense moment of the war, and Zheng Hao couldn't get out.
The war went on, and now, again, it was a siege battle, and it seemed that they were going to launch a general assault, a wall-high cloud chariot with six of the most elite Roman warriors on it. They formed a hedgehog formation to defend themselves firmly behind the shields, while spears pierced through the cracks, resisting the rain of swords of the Qin army, while below, the slaves and dead soldiers of the wolf clan rushed forward and pushed the huge chariot.
Zheng Hao looked at this ancient siege equipment, although it was simple, but it was very effective, the bottom of the chariot was blocked by heavy wooden planks, these planks were soaked in water, even rockets could not ignite it, and ordinary arrows could not penetrate these planks, of course, although the captains in the Golden Fire Cavalry could also shoot through, but it was meaningless, there were too many slaves of the wolf clan.
In this way, the chariot advanced slowly, and at this time, Zheng Hao really wanted to order the Heavenly Palace to give these wolf clans a black hole bomb, but it was meaningless. The black hole bomb has been banned, not only the black hole bomb, but even other scientific and technological weapons have been banned, it can be said that in this time and space, in addition to the scientific research ability, Zheng Hao's Tiangong base only has the ability to open wormholes and create and drop aliens.
Of course, Zheng Hao is not helpless in such a situation, he only needs a 'bewildering star' to instantly destroy those dead soldiers below. But it can't be drawn, this time it's a general attack on the opposite side, and it's not a wise choice to spend energy on this kind of siege warfare.
The opposite side was getting closer and closer, Zheng Hao looked at the rolling wheel, there seemed to be feet underneath, and in an instant Zheng Hao thought of a way, and immediately ordered: "Put fire oil!" The soldiers didn't know what to do, but they still carried it out faithfully, Zheng Hao said: "Put fire oil, don't ignite, 20 steps in front of the target chariot, and cover the attack freely." "The soldiers placed clay pots filled with fire oil on catapults and threw them.
A minute later, the convoy was already standing above the oil oil, and they naturally did not understand, and the people above were cowering in the shells of the turtles, and naturally they did not know what was happening. The slaves in the cart below, separated by heavy wooden planks, heard the sound of the crockpot bursting, but they didn't know what it was. Of course, after they stepped on the oil oil, even if they were smart enough to find that the ground was wet and slippery, they didn't think it was oil for a while.
Zheng Hao felt that it was almost over, the ground had been completely covered by fire oil, and the combat vehicle had entered the fire oil area for nearly 30 meters. So he ordered: "Rockets are launched freely, covering the ground near the combat vehicle." "Where have the soldiers heard such an order, and they actually do not shoot people, but cover the attack The most important thing is that now the chariot is almost 70 meters away from the city tower, and who can shoot anything more than a hundred paces except for people with great strength.
Zheng Hao saw the doubt, took a soldier's bow and arrow from the side, raised the angle, and did not aim, and directly threw a rocket. After the rocket was ejected, the distance increased greatly, like a fire meteor, falling from the sky, igniting the fire oil on the ground, but the speed of the flame spread was not fast, Zheng Hao said: "What are you waiting for, hurry up and eject, don't let the enemy approach within fifteen zhang of the city tower." ”
The soldiers understood, so they each raised their arcs, and countless rockets shot like meteors, igniting the fire oil on the ground. Flames spread from underneath the chariot into the chariot, countless screams of fear were heard, and even a burning smell filled the air.
However, the chariot stopped, which had already achieved Zheng Hao's first purpose. Zheng Hao's second order was issued, "Now the trebuchet is ready, from left to right, and smash the rotten wood on the opposite side for me one by one!" Let the people in the car on the opposite side also turn me into roast pigs! This sentence was almost shouted by Zheng Hao, rolling in the army, and occasionally he had to say some foul language, so as to boost morale.
The effect is indeed like this, the trebuchets of the Qin army began to be named one by one, and the wooden chariots on the opposite side really couldn't hold on, under the concentrated attack of a large number of boulders, the Roman siege vehicles that had been unable to move were hit like a devastating blow, but it was a pity that the soldiers on those siege vehicles were all elites in the late stage of Zhenwu, and the damage to them from these ordinary flames was really limited, and they all escaped with skin injuries.
The white-robed man frowned, and ordered to set up camp, no way, although such a raging fire can only pass through the crusaders and a small number of wolf soldiers, but these people are useless in the past, Zheng Hao now has 100,000 of the most elite golden fire cavalry in the empire, and they are not enough to stuff their teeth in the past.
