Chapter 283: Montenegro
"Put!"
Liu Ye shouted.
Call......
The catapult let go, and a thunderclap sounded at once, and I saw that the stones on the car, under the strong elastic force, were bounced up and smashed against the dirt mountain in front of me.
Bang!
One of the dirt mountains was hit on the spot and collapsed.
Yuan Shao was about to go up the earth mountain again today to see what was going on inside Cao Ying, when he happened to climb the ladder of the earth mountain and saw a dirt mountain beside him being hit by a boulder.
Not only is the dirt mountain gone, but the soldiers on the dirt mountain are still dead and can't make a sound, but those who are not dead are constantly wailing.
"What happened?"
Yuan Shao asked a little stunned.
Jiang Qi and the judge, who were following him, didn't know what was going on, but before they could think about what was going on, Jiang Qi shouted: "Lord, be careful! ”
He suddenly dragged Yuan Shao, jumped off the ladder, and retreated to the rear.
Instinctively, he followed Jiang Qi and retreated.
Rumble!
A roaring sound sounded, and the earth mountain that Yuan Shao was about to go up was also hit by a boulder, and it was also torn apart, collapsed and disintegrated, and became a pile of rubble.
The soldier above, fell down hard.
If Jiang Qi's reaction hadn't been relatively fast, Yuan Shao and the trial would have been buried alive.
Yuan Shao originally wanted to taunt Cao Cao again, but he never dreamed that there would be such a scene, and he was immediately stunned.
I was confused for a while, what happened?
The other Yuan soldiers on the dirt mountain, noticing the situation in the Cao camp below, shouted and came down on the dirt mountain one after another.
"Lord, leave quickly!"
A military marquis ran back and said eagerly: "Among the Cao army, there is a very powerful catapult that can make a thunderclap sound and throw more than one stone......
The words of this military marquis have not yet been finished.
There was another loud bang.
The third dirt mountain was smashed and collapsed by a boulder, and the soldiers who had not had time to escape either fell from a high place, or were smashed into a wail, and finally buried alive under the dirt and rubble.
"What?"
Yuan Shao grabbed the military marquis's clothes in disbelief and asked fiercely, "What did you say?" ”
Where did the military marquis dare to say any more, he was frightened by Yuan Shao, his legs were trembling, and his head was covered with cold sweat.
"Lord, let's go!"
The judge said eagerly: "Let's go back first, and then discuss countermeasures!" ”
Yuan Shao felt right, and finally found out that they had always underestimated Cao Cao.
Only now did I realize that Cao Cao was not as weak as he thought.
He has to go back and discuss other countermeasures, and then give Cao Cao a fatal blow, he wants to make Cao Cao regret what he did today, and he must regret it.
However, they didn't have time to run away.
Rumble......
The ground shook.
The earth mountain did not collapse.
But a dirt mountain was pierced by a huge arrow, and the earth mountain was crumbling, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.
"What a big arrow!"
Jiang Qi said in shock.
With such a huge arrow, about the size of a tree trunk, how big a bow can it shoot?
They couldn't imagine what terrible weapons Cao Jun had made to achieve such an effect, it was too shocking.
——
Cao Ying.
"My lord, the giant arrow that I shot just now was made by me according to Wataratoyuki's idea, and this is Wataratoyuki's credit."
Liu Ye put the bed crossbow and said it briefly.
Chen Zhou had no choice but to say modestly: "I just saw Ziyang's catapult, and I had a whim, I didn't expect Ziyang to really make it, I want to call this bow a bed crossbow, what does the lord think?" ”
"Bed crossbow? Not bad! ”
Cao Cao looked at it for a while, and saw that the thing that fixed the big bow was like a bed, and the name was appropriate, and he asked: "What is Ziyang's catapult called?" ”
Or Chen Zhou said first: "I see that this catapult, when it starts, it can have a thunderbolt-like roar, why don't you call it a thunderbolt?" ”
"Thunderbolt?"
Liu Ye recited the name twice and agreed: "This name is very good, what does the lord think?" ”
Cao Cao said: "It is feasible, it will be called a thunderbolt in the future." ”
That's how these two new weapons were named.
Cao Cao said again: "Pass the order, the craftsmen of the whole army, immediately and as soon as possible, there must be no mistake!" ”
There are also many craftsmen who are in the army.
Because many ordnance will be damaged during the war, then the role of the craftsman is brought into play, responsible for repairing the damaged ordnance, and now there are enough craftsmen in the army to make thunderbolts and bed crossbows.
"My lord."
Ma Chao's gaze was collected from the remaining dirt mountain, and he said loudly: "Yuan Shao's soldiers have all retreated." ”
When they saw it, it was so.
Xiahou Yuan laughed and said, "If they don't retreat, will they wait for death?" ”
Cao Cao said: "Order, smash all the remaining dirt mountains!" ”
The thunderbolt started again, and the dirt mountains were smashed down one after another by the boulders that were thrown out.
The Yuan Shao soldiers who stayed near Tushan all fled back to Yuan Shao's camp when they saw this, and they did not dare to use Tushan to harass Cao's army, and those Tushan were soon all destroyed.
"Refreshing, haha......"
Cao Cao laughed heartily, the depression in the past few days was swept away, if it weren't for Yuan Shao's more soldiers, he still had the idea of preparing to attack Yuan Shao's camp.
——
Jia Xu went to Montenegro, in addition to some guards, Cao Cao also arranged for Cao Zhen to accompany him.
As Cao Cao's righteous son, Cao Zhen has a special status and significance, and he followed Jia Xu to Montenegro, which was more sincere than Jia Xu himself.
At this time, they came to Taihang Mountain, bypassing all Yuan Shao's eyeline, near Jingcheng, and then walking northwest for a while, it is the area where Montenegro is located, Montenegro is one of the mountains on the Taihang Mountain Range.
The footprint is huge.
Montenegro Zhang Yan can be entrenched in Montenegro for so long, and he is still not far from Yuan Shao's Yecheng, and there is nothing to do, the most important thing is to rely on the complex terrain of Montenegro, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Yuan Shao wanted to fight Zhang Yan many times, but when he saw Yuan Jun coming, Zhang Yan hid in the mountains, and Yuan Jun was not familiar with the terrain, so he didn't dare to go deeper.
When Yuan's army retreated, Zhang Yan could come out again and continue to provoke Yuan Shao.
Zhang Yan was safe and sound in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, between the imperial court and the princes of all parties, and now he has a certain strength, of course, more of all, or taking advantage of their special conditions to entrench in Montenegro.
Cao Zhen looked up at Montenegro, saw that the mountain road was rugged, and saw that there was only one path that could lead to the mountain, and said, "Sir, Montenegro is not easy to walk!" ”
Jia Xu also raised his head, looked at the mountain path, and said with a smile: "Zhang Yan can survive under Yuan Shao's repeated encirclement and suppression until now, relying on this black mountain, rest for a while, we will go up the mountain, and the affairs of the lord cannot be delayed." ”
Cao Zhen said: "Why don't you wait at the bottom of the mountain, sir, and I will take a few entourages up the mountain lightly?" ”
Jia Xu straightened his waist, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and said confidently: "Don't look at me as a scholar, but my strength is not small, it is easy to climb a mountain." ”
The most important thing is that he doesn't think that Cao Zhen is sure to persuade Zhang Yan that he must take action himself.
