Chapter 418: The Battle of Yiling (Two Hundred and Forty-Six)
(Foreword)
Cold ice can't break the water, and dead wood can meet spring again.
(Text)
All of us looked at Xia Cheng, only to see that he was confidently standing at the end of the whole army, and the fateful moment was approaching.
"I think you're just clever. Whole army, fire attack! Lu Xun obviously didn't hesitate in the slightest because of Xia Cheng's words.
I saw that the soldiers in the front row were full of bowstrings in their hands, and just as they were about to release their bows and arrows, Xia Cheng lifted the "Heavenly Dragon Spear" in his hand.
We have never known its power, it is neither as thick as the "Dragon Shield", nor as light as the "Heavenly Pavilion Sword", nor as crazy as the "Tianjing Fan". The "Celestial Dragon Lance" has never shown its skills in front of us, but we have clearly guessed that the ultimate trick of the "Celestial Dragon Lance" is the water of the fallen city.
At the last moment of attacking Yiling Pass, we learned the power of the water of the fallen city, and it was easy to use it to crack the enemy's fire attack. But there is only one difficulty, that is, how to use this trick to fall into the city, but when Li Huayi held this "Heavenly Dragon Gun", he was not able to exert its power, and the only time was that at the moment when he fell off the cliff, the situation was critical, and he used a trick to save his life. But now, the predicament in front of us is also very dangerous, whether we can use the "Heavenly Dragon Lance" to fall into the city, that is, our final destiny choice.
"Celestial Dragon Spear? That's right! Li Huayi's 'Heavenly Dragon Spear' is to use the water of the city, so we will not be saved? Lin Yun came to his senses.
"That's right, no wonder Xia Cheng and them are so calm, it turns out that they have already thought of a way to deal with it, you see we are worrying about it here." Cui Li looked at the "Heavenly Dragon Spear" in Xia Cheng's hand and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Everyone looked at Xia Cheng standing at the end of the army with great anticipation, although they only knew one or the other, whether they could succeed in using the water of the Alluring City was here.
Xia Cheng waved the "Heavenly Dragon Spear" in his hand in the air and shouted, "The 'Heavenly Dragon Spear' is here to help me." ”
At this moment, there was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder, and for a moment a steady stream of floods poured from behind Xia Cheng.
"It worked, it worked! This enemy fire attack will have no effect. Cui Li shouted happily.
"Lu Xun, I see how arrogant you are, we have the flood to help! You have the ability, continue to use fire attack! Cui Li seemed to get a little carried away.
In fact, if we can stop the enemy's fire attack now, I am afraid it is still too early. Just using the water of the Alluring City is only part of the plan.
"No, no, even if there is a flood, it can't stop the enemy's fire." Professor Wu's expression was solemn, and it was obvious that he had already guessed the clue.
"Professor Wu, what are you talking about? Isn't it water that fires are used to extinguish fires? You see, this water is almost drowning our knees, what is the use of this fire? Anyway, you're still a physics professor, how can you not figure out such a simple reason? Zhao Yuyu's expression was already relieved, and he joked with Professor Wu. It seems that the current crisis has no effect on her.
"No, it's not time for Zhao to laugh, the situation is very critical. The density of oil is lower than that of water, simply put, it is lighter than water, and even if the flood submerges the knees of our army, the oil floating on the surface of the water will still burn when it encounters sparks, and it will still become a sea of fire at that time. ”
Professor Wu is right, the move I made was not a winning move, but a delaying strategy. Apparently this sudden flood disrupted the rhythm of the enemy attack, and the enemy archers had stopped their plans for a fire attack.
But with Lu Xun's resourcefulness, I believe that we will soon see through this, which means that we must come up with other solutions as soon as possible.
"Professor Wu, is everything you do true? Isn't there still no way to come up with a solution? We're done, we're definitely done this time...... I'm going to say there's no way we can get out of here, and how can we possibly come up with a solution to a problem that AEF researchers haven't come up with? Zhang Xinran said in despair.
way, I must come up with a way, I must think of a way before Lu Boyan finds out.
But at this time, Xia Cheng didn't say a word, and his eyes were still so firm. I suddenly felt how important my companions were, that their faith sometimes came from me, and sometimes my faith came from them.
At this moment, Lu Xun's laughter was heard in the distance, "How can the carving insect skill hide from the general?" I saw him pick up the cup just now and let people pour water into it, and then he took the bow and arrow of the archer next to him, dipped the arrow into the cup, and roared, obviously trying to attract our attention: "Come on, torch."
After Lu Xun finished speaking, the general beside him lit the cup in Lu Xun's hand with the blazing torch.
I saw the cup in Lu Xun's hand burning, and it looked like a burning fireball from a distance, obviously our tricks had been seen through by him.
He shouted proudly: "Carving insect skills, the whole army is ready!" ”
Suddenly, the bows and arrows of the enemy archers were aimed at our army again, and seeing that the plan of fire attack was about to be implemented again, at this moment Xia Cheng shouted: "Cheng Yin, let the whole army submerge the blades in the water!" ”
"Let the whole army submerge the blades in the water? So that's it! I looked at the "Tianjing Fan" in Professor Wu's hand, and finally understood why Xia Cheng was so confident.
I hurriedly shouted, "All the soldiers obey my command and submerge the blades in your hands in the water." ”
The soldiers obviously didn't know why, but they obeyed my orders and submerged their blades in the water.
Suddenly, a thick layer of grease appeared on top of the originally clear floodwater, and the flood water continued to swim forward. However, because the density of grease is less than that of water, it travels very slowly under the influence of water.
"It's a good idea, because when soldiers fight the enemy, the most fat is distributed in their hands with blades and armor. The armor had risen to the surface of the water under the impact of the flood, but the weapon was held high, and it was difficult to remove it without submerging it completely. In addition, the water of the Alluring City brings a steady stream of water, so it can rush the floating grease water towards the enemy. "Professor Wu is not wrong.
"But you see, the water is not very fast, and it is mainly gathered in our area. The enemy won't wait for the grease to rush at them before launching a fire attack on us! While Lin Yun spoke, the enemy's burning bows and arrows were already flying towards our army.
"Professor Wu, hurry up and wave the 'Tianjing Fan'!" Xia Cheng almost roared and said to Professor Wu.
The current situation is very critical, and a second of hesitation can lead to a complete loss.
Professor Wu did not hesitate at all, he opened the "Tianjing Fan" as Xia Cheng said, and the wind was raging for a while, not only blowing the oily waters quickly towards the enemy camp, but also blowing those tens of thousands of bows and arrows towards the enemy camp. For a time, the enemy camp could only quickly retreat, and soon the enemy archers also stopped firing.
It was then that I breathed a sigh of relief that the enemy's fire attack had finally been stopped by us.
Xia Cheng put away the "Heavenly Dragon Spear", and the flowing water under his feet slowly dispersed, flowing into the distance. The enemy also managed to extinguish the fire, and the two armies returned to the previous state of confrontation.
"Great, this time we finally stopped the enemy's fire attack completely." There was a slight look of relief on everyone's faces, but the battle was not over, and the enemy army was still several times stronger than ours. It's not enough to stop a fire attack, the real challenge lies ahead.
"Xia Cheng, there is a place I haven't figured out about your countermeasures just now." Lin Yun asked Xia Cheng, who had returned to us.
"I said Lin Yun, we have all stopped the enemy's fire attack and have achieved a temporary victory, so don't care about so many details." This sentence is quite in line with Cui Li's usual personality, he has always only cared about the result and not the process.
"Lin Yun, if you have any questions, just ask." Xia Cheng seemed to have guessed what Lin Yun wanted to ask.
"Although the 'Tianjing Fan' in Professor Wu's hand can create a strong wind and blow the floating grease water towards the enemy, what I don't understand is that Lu Xun didn't also take away the mechanism that can create a strong wind when he left Yiling Pass? If he and Professor Wu had been in a strong wind at the same time, and the wind had canceled each other out, the area where the grease had floated would still be in the vicinity of our army. Lin Yun asked curiously.
"You're right, Lu Xun did take away the machines and mechanisms that created the wind, but although the organs of Yiling Pass are the same as the four heirloom blades of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, there is one biggest difference." Xia Cheng said with a smile.
Unexpectedly, not long after Xia Cheng came to Yiling Pass, he didn't participate in many battles, most of the situations were described to him by us before, but even so, he could still discover the characteristics of all the organs in Yiling Pass, and Xia Cheng's strength really didn't dare to underestimate.
"The biggest difference? I've participated in all the battles at Yiling Pass, but I haven't noticed any difference?" Lin Yun asked.
"Time. The biggest difference is in the time. I found that there is almost no preparation time for the four blades of Qinqi, calligraphy and painting, which means that when they swing the blades, the skills will be activated at the same time, but the mechanisms in Yiling Pass seem to require a certain amount of preparation time, so this is also the key to the success of this tactic. At the same time that I asked Professor Wu to activate the 'Celestial Tranquility Fan' skill, the enemy simply didn't have the same amount of time to activate their mechanism, so they wouldn't have had time to turn the tide. Xia Cheng said that the head was the Tao, and it seemed that everything was in his mind, and it was exactly the same.
"I said Xia Cheng, how can you think about so many things in such a short period of time? In addition to admiring Cheng Yin after a headache, the second Cui Li is you. Cui Li said admiringly.
"Sure enough, the leader of the AEF research team deserves his name." Even Professor Wu couldn't help but admire.
"Ben originally thought you were just some nobodies, but I didn't expect you to have some skills. But don't think that you can defeat the Honsho just like that, the real battle has just begun. Ben will show you what war is in its purest form. Han Dang, Zhou Tai, each of you leads 10,000 troops, divides the left and right, and annexes the enemy army! The general led the whole army to break through head-on, firing on three sides, and the merit was in the day. "The enemy's Lu Xun issued the latest battle plan, this time the battle did not have too many tactics, but purely with the disparity in strength, so as to crush our army's defense line.
Our army's Tiger Shield Formation had been broken up before, just like a soldier in battle had discarded his armor, and since there was no defense, the only option we had was to attack.
"They're calling, they're calling! What are we going to do? Our Tiger Shield Array has collapsed, and we can't stop the enemy's main force at all. Cui Li, who was still proud just now, suddenly changed his expression again.
The enemy attack was surging, and I shouted, "All the generals will fight with me on the battlefield!" ”
"Cheng Yin, is there no other way? We're no match for them. Such an attack is undoubtedly just fatal. Li Ruina said worriedly.
"We don't have time to hesitate, rather than wait here and let the enemy defeat us all, we should fight with them. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. "I look up at the sky in the distance, no matter what, I'm going to buy as much time as possible, all hope is in the distance.
