Chapter Ninety-Seven: Counting is Counting
Ding Qin himself also took out the glider. After the personnel were assembled, he sighed in a deep voice, "Glider assault, target: Changmao Town." Let's go!"
As he spoke, he ran a few steps, and with the inertia of jumping, he rushed directly into the air.
Behind him, more than 200 people took off one after another using gliders as tools.
Of course, since most of the people only had a brief training session, there were also cases of unstable control and falling behind after takeoff. Ding Qin's attitude towards these people is very clear.
If it is determined that it is not possible to form combat effectiveness, then return to the camp for the time being. So, when halfway through, the team that was able to fly stably was only about two hundred people.
Two hundred, that's enough.
Ding Qin had been flying at the front at the beginning, and when he approached Changmao Town, he rose to the top of the entire team.
"In the assault team, ten people were divided and twenty people were led to attack the main gate of Changmao Town with fire and thunder. Two other squads of ten were formed to attack the two side doors. Pay attention to the rhythm of your attacks and increase the attack time slightly. During the attack, the commandos can dive according to the situation, giving the enemy the illusion that they can approach us. ”
"The others, rising in height, hovered over the town of Changmao. After I gave the order, I concentrated all the firepower and attacked the palace in the center of Changmao Town with fire and thunder in a short time, and immediately withdrew the battalion after the attack. ”
As soon as he arrived to command the battle, Ding Qin's voice became calm and deep. His expression was also slightly cold, but his eyes were full of heat.
It's the heat of battle, and it's the heat of rage!
Those who take advantage of people's purest and kindest feelings will never be spared!
Soon, chaos began to appear at the three gates of Changmao Town. Although they had learned the lesson of the last time Ding Qin attacked the construction site, there was no way for them to effectively deal with this kind of attack from the air.
Although these new pilots were much less accurate in throwing fire mines in the air, it was undeniable that this kind of attack with a larger coverage area had created the illusion of a large-scale attack.
There was instant chaos in Changmao Town. Many people have already begun to spread rumors, no, the imperial army has begun to attack the city!
And the generals and generals of the new state of Changmao, who were originally studying countermeasures because of the attack on the construction site, were also shocked to get the news that the city gate was attacked.
They never imagined that tonight, there would be a second attack.
Now that the assault on the city gates has begun, will a large number of ground troops also arrive at the same time?
They don't have a bottom in their hearts.
Chu Tiankuo couldn't help but roar, "Why don't you speak now?"
Just when people lowered their heads, the peacock, the national teacher, walked out and smiled extremely coquettishly, "King." I have another way. It's just that this may inadvertently hurt some lives. ”
Chu Tiankuo said angrily, "Say." ”
Peacock said, "King, there is a poison in our Five Poison Island. This poison has the property that as long as it is heated by fire, it can quickly rise upward, and it can form a barrier over the city, and even birds cannot fly in. And in the city, it is basically unharmed. This is the method used by some masters to interfere with birds when they were cultivating. However, during the heating process, some of the people who are heated may be poisoned and die. ”
When Chu Tiankuo heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, "Well, there are still some strange things, okay, I'll leave it to you, the sooner the better." ”
The peacock smiled lightly, glanced at the others with a hint of sarcasm, and walked away.
Chu Tiankuo said again, "Now that the enemy situation is unclear, in order to prevent the city gate from being lost, immediately increase troops at the city gate." Two thousand men from each gate are to hurry up! ”
Two generals will make the order retreat. Chu Tiankuo leaned back and sighed, "This time, whoever can relieve the siege of Changmao, this king will share the world with him equally in the future." Do you all understand?"
Although the people below heard it clearly, no one answered.
Chu Tiankuo couldn't help but smile bitterly.
............................................................................................................
Ding Qin was in the air, observing the situation by the light of the fire below. After seeing several troops reinforcing the city gates, he ordered the troops attacking the city gates to drop all the fire and mines, and then returned first.
After that, he took himself as the leader, led by more than 100 other people, and threw all the fire and thunder on his body towards the palace in Changmao Town.
More than 1,000 fires and thunders exploded as soon as they touched the ground, and the roar could be heard more than ten miles away. The entire palace and its surroundings instantly became a sea of fire.
Ding Qin waved his hand lightly, "Return to the camp!"
Back at the camp, no one was injured in the battle, except for two who were slightly injured due to improper use of the glider.
As for the casualties in Changmao Town, Ding Qin didn't care. With these two attacks tonight, even if their troops are not distracted, they will be panicked.
After returning to the camp, those who did not make it last time or returned halfway were already ready to go. The promise also led to an increase in the production of fire thunder, and now there are hundreds.
"When are you going to set out next? If after dawn, I decide to let the vanguard pull out the camp and advance after you. ”
Xu Zhinuo has no interference with Ding Qin's plan now. He knew that in the war, Ding Qin would not make big mistakes.
Unexpectedly, Ding Qin shook his head. "Not for now. But the army can advance. ”
Xu Zhinuo was stunned, "Why?"
Ding Qindao, "Changmao's so-called national teacher is a person from the Five Poisons Island. And the Five Poison Island, there is a special poison that blocks the air, called Haze San. For raids in air defense, they will definitely use this poison. ”
Xu Zhinuo's face showed a little melancholy, "I also planned to use the gliding unit as the vanguard to break through." ”
"Air power, indeed, will be a breakthrough force. However, not now. Ding Qin stretched out his hand to test the humidity of the air, "The air temperature is very high tonight, and it may rain soon." Once the rain falls, the fog is washed away. That's when we made a breakthrough. ”
Xu Zhi promised, "Are you sure?"
Ding Qin nodded, "Absolutely." The glider will continue to be made, and I will have other arrangements. Early tomorrow morning, the vanguard army can advance, creating a momentum of overwhelming the army. ”
Xu Zhinuo nodded, "Okay." Give me the order, after dawn tomorrow, the camp will be set out!"
The distance of about 100 miles is actually not far for the vanguard army. However, due to the proximity to Changmao Town, the number of small-scale garrisons and secret posts on the road increased, and the vanguard army was basically in a state of fighting while walking. When it was almost dark, the whole team had only advanced more than fifty miles, and it was still forty miles away from Changmao Town.
After camping, Ding Qin ordered a part of the road army, searched backwards, and recovered more than 30 corpses of Changmao's army. They stripped off the clothes of these people and changed them into the uniforms of the vanguard, and at the same time, each of them carried several special fire thunderbolts around his waist.
This kind of fire thunder is much less powerful than normal fire thunder, but once it falls from the air, it will explode on touch.
After the preparation was completed, Ding Qin had 30 gliders taken and the corpses hung under them. The entire Central Route Army began to take advantage of the darkness of the night to advance in stealth, until it reached a place a few miles away from Changmao Town.
"Ready, fly. Ding Qin lowered his voice and gave the order. In groups of four, after a run-up, the corpses were successfully sent into the air.
This scene is very similar to the previous scene of exploring the cliff with stones and gliding wings on the edge of the Jinsha cliff.
It's just that this time, it's all dead.
"Back to camp. When you get back, tell the glider troops to get ready for the attack. Ding Qin tried the moisture in the air again, "It is estimated that it will rain in the second half of the night." As soon as the rain stops, we'll go!"
In the town of Changmao.
After last night, the soldiers defending the city have been a little noisy. Although the national commander issued a new order and told them that the air force would die if they came again, they still could not be at peace.
As he looked up at the sky, he suddenly noticed a dark shadow slipping past the moon. "Attention, there is an enemy! The people in the sky are here again!"
As soon as he shouted, the entire city gate went into a state of alert. However, this guard is very special, and everyone has a shield on their head to prevent it from being smashed by fire.
But soon, they found out that it was not the fire that fell down, but the people.
Thirty bodies fell from the sky one after another, some rushing into the crowd, some crashing into the wall. But without exception, when they fell, the small fire mines on their bodies exploded when they touched the ground, and the bursting flames caused directly ignited the corpses.
When the frightened officers and soldiers of the city came back to their senses, they found that there was nothing in the air, only human corpses and damaged gliders on the ground. The attentive person immediately picked up one or two gliders and went directly to the palace that was burned beyond recognition last time, "report ...... Report, the Xuantian army attacked, but it was limited by the Dafa of the National Teacher, all the personnel were killed, and our department captured several sets of enemy flying equipment......"
And while they were rejoicing in this, Ding Qin's troops were already on their way back.
Just as we returned to camp, heavy rain fell from the sky.
Ding Qin went directly to the big tent of the Chinese army, saw Xu Zhinuo, and said, "The time is ripe." It is now possible to march quickly and approach the town of Changmao. ”
Xu Zhinuo looked at the heavy rain outside and nodded, "Well, you can." Do as you say. But when will your flight power be able to strike again?"
Ding Qin thought for a while and said, "Fire and thunder are fire attacks, and it is difficult to exert their power when it rains. As soon as the rain stopped, we could quickly bombard the city gates. With ground operations, opening the gates is not a big problem. ”
Xu Zhinuo turned to an intelligence officer beside him, "The big army behind, how far is it from us?"
The intelligence officer said, "Our speed of action has slowed down these days, and a large force is catching up, and its vanguard is still fifty miles away from us. We had already sent them a message asking them to march quickly to catch up. ”
Xu Zhinuo nodded, "Okay." Order all, at a normal speed, march to the main gate of Changmao Town!"
