Chapter 83 The Earth Smoke Rises (4) Zhou Qi's Bad Taste

"My dear master! Aren't you going to try! Horse Oz didn't have time to pay attention to Zhou Qi's expression, as long as it comes to his own work, everything can be left behind.

Zhou Qi carefully held the crank handle and shook it gently according to the operation prompts that Ma Oz kept babbling from.

"Whoosh!" There are bursts of dense wind breaking sound in my ears!

I saw a series of thick crossbow bolts nearly one meter long flying out of the honeycomb-like shooting holes like locusts, flying straight into the night, and disappeared in the blink of an eye!

"Not bad! He really made it happen! ”

However, before Zhou Qi could come to his senses!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the distance! The fire generated by the violent explosion looked faintly dazzling in the night! As the explosion sounded, there was a lot of noise in Wuling City, and the chickens and dogs were restless. In the distance, you can hear the sound of scolding coming along the night wind.

"This thing is going to explode!" Zhou Qi was suddenly shocked in his heart, and then he was overjoyed! This is not a simple chain crossbow, I'm afraid I have to add the word burst in front of it!

But when he thought about it, he realized that he seemed to have overlooked something.

"Horse Oz? I remember that I gave you a drawing of a chain ballista, and the crossbow is there, but what about the car? In addition, how much does this thing cost, and how many units can be produced per day? ”

Seeing Zhou Qi's surprised expression, Horse Oz was like drinking a full glass of chilled red wine on a dog day, and his whole body was sour. But suddenly I heard his next question. Instantly, his expression froze.

"Well, the problem of the car is easy to solve. I'll figure it out. He replied with a cry in his mouth, and turned his head to the blacksmith's shop, grease the soles of his feet, and tried to slip away.

"Wait, where are you going?" When Zhou Qi saw his actions, he already knew what he was doing. With a smile on his lips, his eyes were firmly fixed on Horse Oz.

"Well, this, I said, the cost is a little more expensive, the output, it's just like this at the moment......" The more Ma Oz spoke, the quieter his voice became, and as he spoke, his head hung down, avoiding Zhou Qi's aggressive gaze.

"How much?"

"It's ten times more expensive." Horse Oz had a cry in his tone. A look of frustration and grievance.

"Excellent! Within 2 days, I'm going to see at least five of the same finished product and enough bolts! If you can do it, I can treat it as if it didn't happen. Oz, I'm optimistic about you! After Zhou Qi finished speaking, he spread his wings and went into the air, no longer paying attention to the sluggish horse Oz.

"2 days! 5 planes! Enough crossbow bolts! Damn it! You vicious vampire! Bastards who eat people and don't spit out bones! How could I put up such a dehuman, despicable and shameless master as you......."

Hearing the angry scolding from behind him from a distance, Zhou Qi smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. Sometimes, giving full play to the subjective initiative of the masses may bring great surprises!

At noon the next day.

Forty warships sailing up the river from Gangneung stopped along the river at a ferry port 150 miles from Wuling. Jingzhou had a total of 40,000 horse infantry troops, boarded the river bank and camped on boats.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yuner have led the army for many years, and as soon as Fang landed on the shore, he sent several teams of cavalry to form a scout horse and scattered around, and began to investigate the movement.

Just after the afternoon, except for the return of the two teams of men and horses who were exploring along the river, the sergeants who went to the direction of Wuling to investigate were lost in the sea and never returned.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun looked at each other on the handsome boat, and there was surprise in their eyes!

He and others went up the river, and there was no reason why they would be discovered by the enemy as soon as they reached the border. Was it already noticed when you set off? But how is this possible? In these two short days, how could the news have passed, could it be that someone leaked the news in advance?

The two were suspicious, and sent more people out to investigate. The situation is no different than before. Not only that, but this time, including those who investigated along the river, they didn't come back!

Cai Mao stood on the bow of the ship with a gloomy face, staring at the mountains leading to Wuling, and was silent for a long time. Since the disappearance of the first team of scout horses, there was a feeling in his heart that made him tremble for no reason, as if this road to Wuling was a giant beast with open fangs, as long as he made the slightest move, he would be swallowed along with the 40,000 horses!

Who leaked the news? No, this matter must be reported to the lord Liu Biao immediately!

And at this moment, the army marching west from the direction of Changsha got up on the third watch and cooked food on the fifth watch. With the blessing of the general's attributes, march all the way. After noon, it ran all the way for more than 300 miles, and at this speed, it only took evening to reach the city of Wuling.

Huang Zhong held a big knife and sat on the back of the horse, looking slightly sleepy. After the feeling of being watched last night, he did not enter the account to rest during the period of caution. Remain on guard in the barracks until the army begins to move.

"Why didn't the old general order to rest in place for a while?"

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves beside him was loud, and a loud shout was heard in the distance. Huang Zhong turned his head to take a look, and saw that not far behind him, a general with a face like a heavy jujube, born with an extraordinary appearance. In the blink of an eye, he carried a two-edged long knife and galloped forward.

"It's the chief! In that case, so be it! And he rested on the spot for an hour. ”

Seeing that Huang Zhong had listened to his opinion, Wei Yan clasped his hands into fists and saluted, and instructed the herald to convey the order.

"I saw that the old general was looking for camp last night and never slept all night. I don't know if the old general has made a discovery? ”

"Yes! As Wen Chang said, last night a certain family felt different, so they went out to inspect. But here's the strange thing, the movement is not from all around, but from heaven, somehow. ”

As the old general said, a certain person also feels the same way. Legend has it that there are cultivators and alchemists in this heaven and earth, and those with great magic power can fly to the heavens and the earth. Could it be that these aliens passed above the barracks last night? ”

"Well, what Wen Chang said is true, but if such capable people are owned by Wuling City, this campaign may be disadvantageous to our army."

"I just felt that the man went away suddenly, if that was the case. I am afraid of the old general's marksmanship, so I don't dare to stay longer. There are generals here, and this army is impregnable, and such a small night is not enough to worry about. ”

Huang Zhong heard Wei Yan's praise, and a slight smile appeared on his face, and a proud look appeared in his eyes. What Wei Yan said was exactly what he thought in his heart. If you really have the ability to move mountains and reclaim the sea, the strange people like fairies on the land, I am afraid that I have already taken away my head last night! The people who came left in a hurry, they must have low mana, and they were afraid of the power of the bow in their hands!

As soon as he thought of this, Huang Zhong's heart moved.

"This is a matter of caution. The art of war is cloudy, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. A certain family wanted to work as a civil servant to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. It only needs to be enough for ten days in the army. It is expected that in this land of Wuling County, there is nothing to defend. As long as there is ten days of food and grass in the army, it is not a boast of a certain family, and taking this Wuling is like a bag to take things, and it should be captured. ”

"The old general is brave, so he handed over the post of pioneer and went to escort grain and grass. Help the old general to achieve this feat! ”

Zhou Qi didn't know that his peeping last night actually made Huang Zhong vigilant and sent Wei Yan to escort the grain and grass! Who is Wei Yan? A real historical celebrity! In the late Shu Han Dynasty, Optimus Prime existed, and the force value was called a burst. After the death of many generals, he was the only one who could fight with the Wei generals.

In the face of such a fierce man! In this way, Zhao Daming and his wolf warrior are in danger!

In the evening, Jingzhou's vanguard had already arrived 70 miles outside Wuling City! Huang Zhong saw that it was getting late, so he immediately ordered to camp on the spot, and only wait for tomorrow morning, and then go to the city to call for war!

There was nothing to say all night, not to mention the veteran Huang Zhong who was far away in Wuling at the moment.

In the early morning of the next day, Han Xuan, the Taishou of Changsha, suddenly received a report from his sergeant. Early in the morning, a servant woman in Huang Zhong's mansion came to report to the official, and Mrs. Huang disappeared mysteriously last night! Along with it disappeared a personal maid and the gold and silver left at home!

When Han Xuan heard the news, after pondering for a moment, he was suddenly shocked! The face is full of anxiety!

This Huang Hansheng was appreciated by Gong Liu Biao, and was appointed as the chief general of the expedition to Wuling, and his wife disappeared after the army traveled for a long time! Since ancient times, family members have been the fetters of military generals. To put it mildly, the general goes on the expedition, and his family is a hostage-like existence.

Because all the monarchs are afraid that the generals they send will rebel in front of the battle, they are very close to their families!

Now that I have lost Mrs. Huang, this is a real big deal! It's hard to provoke the anger of the lord Liu Biao, and his head is not guaranteed!

The situation is urgent, and the general's family is lost, how can this be! Han Xuan immediately sent a fast horse to Xiangyang to report to the lord Liu Biao, and at the same time took down all the soldiers and officials who guarded the city gate last night, and tortured them strictly, in order to find the news!

Not to mention Han Xuan's anxious like an ant on a hot pot.

At the same time, Zhou Qi's figure appeared on the trail 80 miles away from Changsha City.

At this moment, he is sitting upright on the back of a huge and cute giant panda. And the national treasure under him pulled a carriage behind him and worked as a coolie.

In the car was the old lady Huang who mysteriously disappeared from Changsha City last night!

The night before, he and Xia Ruobing had said that they were going to pick up someone. That's right, the purpose of his trip was to pick up Huang Zhong's wife!

After finding out that it was Huang Zhong who came to invade Wuling, I don't know if it was a bad taste, the thought in his heart was, why don't we also make a Five Tiger Admiral? Guan Erye and Zhang Sanye don't say it, they are good friends of Liu Da'er who cut off the chicken head and burns yellow paper. Naturally, there is no hope.

But everyone else can! Besides, if you think about it, you won't get pregnant. As long as you stop planning yourself, the remaining three, it is not hopeless to subdue the one or two.

In order to retain talents, it is natural to solve the worries of talents. Before the war started, he took Mrs. Huang to Wuling. Don't worry about Huang Zhong not taking the bait!

What's more, if you want to subdue Huang Zhong, Old Madam Huang is a link in this plan that cannot be missed!
