Chapter 51 Rainstorm pours
Before a big war, it is necessary to do a pre-war mobilization to boost morale.
But no one would lift their mother out to boost morale at such a time.
General Fang, who was originally very satisfied with Gang Leader Xu's words of agreement, immediately glared sharply. Just when he was about to scold him, he saw Gang Leader Xu suddenly jump off his horse after screaming, holding his head and running back.
.
Not only him, but also everyone else's expressions changed drastically at this time, and they made the same move as Gang Leader Xu.
"General, run!"
The elite soldiers who also belonged to the Zhu Yan Empire shouted eagerly.
General Fang suddenly felt something bad and turned around suddenly, his eyes widening to the extreme!
Under the night sky, several huge fireballs were arranged in a sharp cone array, roaring, like meteorites flying from the sky, rushing straight towards him and smashing down angrily!
How could General Fang, who had experienced many battles, not know that these fireballs were caused by the trebuchets of the defenders at the top of the city?
But, how is this possible!
As early as when it was still light, General Fang had carefully observed that there was not even a trebuchet on the top of Xiyun City!
Although he didn't know the reason and was very confused about where the opponent's trebuchet went, he didn't think too much about it. After all, the trebuchet was difficult to transport and it was big. Under the vast Xiyun City of Pingchuan, the opponent couldn't move it.
The trebuchet was ambushed and concealed to the point of being invisible.
Without the trebuchet, his siege equipment can advance strongly without being threatened by the opponent's trebuchet.
Furthermore, General Fang was not totally defenseless. Just before he turned around and spoke impassionedly to the soldiers, he took a careful look at the city wall and was very sure that there was no trebuchet!
Even if there is, our own catapult has not yet reached the optimal attack distance, so why does the opponent's one come over?
There is a word called telepathy. When he saw the huge fireball roaring towards him, General Fang's mind was instantly filled with countless question marks.
run?
How to run?
Seeing the approaching fireball, General Fang acted quickly. After jumping off his horse, he rolled on the spot and rolled into the bottom of the siege tower next to him before the fireball arrived.
boom!
Boom boom boom boom!
General Fang, who had just taken shelter at the bottom of the siege tower, felt waves of violent shocks coming suddenly. For a moment, the horses roared, the soldiers wailed, and even the siege tower he was hiding in shook violently, as if he had been hit by a fireball.
A few.
Ten!
Ten fireballs suddenly crashed down. Whether it was intentional or just luck, they landed on the location of the siege equipment, smashing a catapult into pieces.
The fireball hit the ground, exploding into the sky and causing sparks to shoot out in all directions. Before the soldiers who were lucky enough to escape the trajectory of the fireball had time to breathe a sigh of relief, many of them were covered in the layer of burning resin wrapped in the fireball.
Once this thing is on the body, it is not so easy to get rid of. The soldiers who were splashed on their heads, faces, and bodies all fell to the ground and screamed in pain. They slapped the burning parts of their bodies randomly with both hands, but one of them was hit by the high temperature.
The hot resin burned the skin and opened the flesh, and for a while the smell of burning was everywhere.
Chaos!
It's all chaos!
In order to prepare for the ambush behind and protect the heavy siege equipment, General Fang ordered his people to set up a dense iron barrel formation. These fireballs fell to the ground like meteors, and one can imagine the casualties they caused.
"Don't panic!"
