Fu Qin starts with a plan

The scene on the city wall soon attracted the attention of the sentinels of the New Qin Army on the opposite cloud tower.

Standing at the top of the city, watching the sentinels on the Yunlou run around.

A sneer twitched from the corner of Mo Hu's mouth.

I said in my heart that if you don't want to go to the city, I will let you bombard me. If you go to the city, you will die!
The city wall of the county city is much wider than the walls of the surrounding small towns.

Even the top of the city is a hundred feet wide, which is the result of decades of continuous reinforcement.

Although it is said to be a city wall, it actually has enough strategic depth.

"Don't you guys want to fight?"

"I'll simply give up the opportunity for hand-to-hand combat and retreat all the way. Let's see what you can do?"

Mumbling to himself, Mo Hu's mentality gradually stabilized.

Although the artillery of the New Qin Army was powerful, they did not dare to get too close, otherwise they would not be able to shoot at all within the range of the defenders' bows and crossbows.

He now ordered to retreat to the rear, able to reduce more casualties.

However, there was no other way. He just hoped to last a few more days until it rained on the county side.

As long as it rains, those gunpowder weapons will be useless.

At the beginning, Zhao Tuo was able to capture the county because of cooperation from the inside and the outside. Now Han Xin wants to capture the county, so he can only attack head-on.

Originally, there were [-] to [-] elites in the city, plus the Zhao army who fled from the front line, there were more than [-] in total.

There is absolutely no problem with more than [-] troops guarding a large city of Xiongguan.

But after a whole morning of fighting, Mo Hu realized that in a head-to-head confrontation, his side couldn't beat it at all.

The strength of the new Qin army was beyond his expectation.

In the past, if the Qin army could fight so easily, it would not be necessary to conquer the land of Baiyue three times to succeed.

Mo Hu only regrets that he did not live in this era, and that he chose the wrong path.

But it's useless to say anything now, with people from the Yin Yang Palace staring at him, he can only go to the dark one by one.

However, as long as it lasts until it rains, Mo Hu is still confident that at least the new Qin army can pay some price.

Thinking of this, Mo Hu couldn't help thinking of the Gu soldiers under the city.

When conquering Baiyue, the Qin army suffered a lot from the Gu soldiers.

Although the number of those Gu soldiers is small, but they can't stand them and don't want to die.

It is said that the old Qin people fought bravely, as if they were desperate, but those Gu soldiers were even more desperate than the old Qin people.

The old Qin people don't want their lives, not really, the Gu soldiers don't want their lives, but they really don't.

Therefore, Mo Hu has a deep understanding of the terror of Gu soldiers.

If the new Qin army did not have those new weapons, the siege battle would definitely be carried out according to his predetermined plan.

In the previous Great Qin Wars, siege battles had always been protracted.

It is not surprising that this kind of battle lasted for ten days and half a month.

Even though the new Qin army is powerful, its numbers are not many after all.

If you want to break through a city like the county city, you may have to break your teeth.

But the facts are unpredictable. The new Qin army did not play cards according to common sense at all. If there are artillery, use artillery, and if there are kerosene bombs, use kerosene bombs, but they will not send people to attack the city.

How the hell do you fight?
Bully myself, there are no new weapons here!
Mo Hu let out a long sigh in his heart.

Suddenly, there was a strange sound above his head.

Mo Hu looked up subconsciously.

The sight that appeared in his eyes almost drove him out of his wits!
In the sky, at some point, nearly a thousand floating white bags appeared.

Under each white bag is a black lacquered clay pot.

Suddenly, Mo Hu felt a constant chill in his heart.

In the hinterland of the Great Qin Dynasty, pottery pots have gradually withdrawn from the lives of ordinary people.

The things made of pottery are rough and can no longer keep up with the aesthetics of the people of Daqin.

Only the Daqin military is extremely keen on this kind of thing.

After all, the cost of clay pots is low, and the most important thing is to insulate heat and moisture, and the effect is excellent.

Needless to say, the ceramic jars carried by the new Qin army in the past must be gunpowder weapons.

However, with the appearance of kerosene bombs today, Mo Hu was not sure what kind of those above his head belonged to.

However, no matter what kind it belongs to, it is not what he should consider at this time.

Those paper bags floating in the air are extremely ingeniously made, and I don't know what principle they use.

But Mo Hu was sure that the thing would fall off sooner or later.

He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the opposite Yunlou.

It was found that thousands of soldiers of the New Qin Army standing on the cloud tower, almost each of them held a white bag, and kept lighting it to make it rise into the air.

Look at the wind direction is just east wind.

At least, within a couple of hours, the new Qin army has the upper hand.

Not long after, the white bags had almost covered the entire wall, and they were dangling towards the city in dense numbers.

So far, the bags haven't shown much character.

But Mo Hu knew that once the clay pot below fell, something extremely terrifying would definitely happen.

At the same time, at the New Qin Army Camp outside the city, Han Xin and the others held binoculars and looked towards the sky.

That white lantern-like thing is the latest weapon developed by the Academy of Sciences.

"Why does this thing look like a hot air balloon?"

Next to Han Xin, Zhang Han put down his binoculars and asked Gongshu Qin.

Gongshu Qin put down the cardboard in his hand, looked up at him, frowned and said, "This is a sky lantern improved by a hot air balloon!"

"Sky lantern?"

He Cong was taken aback: "What's the difference?"

"Didn't you see it? It's small, practical, and cheap!"

As Gongshu Qin said, he couldn't help muttering: "Do you think that our Academy of Sciences has as much funding as your military, and that it doesn't cost money to do experiments? Of course, whichever is cheaper, let's do it!"

He Cong: "."

Zhang Han: "."

The two looked at each other without speaking.

After a while, Han Xin put down the binoculars, and said to Gongshu Qin, "According to your calculation, how long will this wind direction last?"

"About an hour!"

"Can you ignite all the sky lanterns above in one hour?"

"You don't need to order, just wait and watch the show!" Gongshu Qin said.

"This"

When the generals heard Gongshu Qin's words, they couldn't help but look at each other.

My heart said that it is still possible to fight like this?

What the hell is waiting to see a good show? !
Although Han Xin and others had weird faces, the new Qin army had very good luck.

Just before noon, the wind direction had already changed. At this time, the position of the new Qin army was in the upwind direction of the county.

Each sky lantern carries five kilograms of high explosives.

After flying, it floated to the sky above the county with the wind.

When the lamp oil is exhausted, the sky lantern loses its power and will fall rapidly.

When falling, a special device is triggered.

The fire wire will ignite the gunpowder bomb below, and then fall into the city and explode.

This method of combat requires extremely harsh conditions.

However, the effect is absolutely stunning.

Even Gongshu Qin didn't expect Chaotiandeng to be able to make meritorious deeds the first time he appeared on the battlefield.

Han Xin looked at the fanatical Gongshu Qin and smiled slightly.

He had seen this expression on Gongshu Qin's face many times.

The so-called non-madness does not survive.

It is precisely because the Academy of Sciences has a lunatic like Gongshu Qin that Daqin has come to where he is today.

Thinking of this, Han Xin looked up at the sky again.

The shocking picture made his scalp tingle.

I saw 6000 people put up sky lanterns together, and within a moment, the sky above the county city was covered with white lanterns, all of which were white lanterns.

Han Xin narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling a little anticipation in his heart.

As the commander of the army, he is naturally very clear about the power of gunpowder weapons.

However, is this unconstrained weapon developed by the Academy of Sciences really easy to use?

As a general in command of the army, Han Xin has always believed that seeing is believing.

The next moment, Han Xin suddenly felt the ground shake slightly.

Immediately afterwards, there were continuous dull explosions in his ears.

Han Xin suddenly turned his head and looked towards the county.

The scene in front of him left him stunned.

Behind the wide city wall, there were successive explosions.

Although there is a city wall blocking it, it is not clear what happened behind.

But the rising hot air stirred the air above the entire city into an incomparably turbid state.

Clouds of smoke and dust billowed up.

Even at a distance of hundreds of feet, Han Xin could feel that something extremely terrifying was happening in the city.

However, he never expected that this was just the beginning.

In the county town, under the protection of his personal guards, Mo Hu hurriedly walked down the top of the city.

Tens of thousands of elites are stationed here, and the usually bustling county town is now empty.

Not a single civilian could be seen on the street, only the panic-stricken soldiers running around.

Of course, Mo Hu didn't care about the lives of those civilians.

Before the battle, he had great confidence to hold the city.

Moreover, because of the fear of getting in with the new Qin army spies.

Mo Hu had already ordered the people in the city not to go out if there was nothing to do.

Although he had only fought twice, Mo Hu already had a psychological shadow of the new Qin army's endless and strange methods.

No matter how the battle ended, for the sake of safety, he still wanted to appease his family.

His family was received by Zhao Tuo from the county seat. At first they were used as 'hostages'. Later, as the fighting intensified, Zhao Tuo had no time to estimate his family.

Later, when Mo Hu returned to the county, he placed his family in an official house on the westernmost side, which was nearly ten miles away from the city wall.

Mo Hu rode fast all the way, and finally ran to the street where the official residence was after two quarters of an hour.

But those lanterns in the sky are like gangrene.

Like shadows, they followed Mo Hu's head without stopping for a moment.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the official residence, Mo Hu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The only thing the new Qin army could attack was the city wall on the east side.

Although the west gate has also been closed, there is no need to worry about the threat of the new Qin army.

He had already made up his mind that after returning, he would immediately arrange for his family to withdraw from the county through the secret passage.

Zhao Tuo told him about the secret passage, and very few people knew about it. He believed that his family members could escape.

In this way, he will have no worries.

As for disturbing the morale of the army at critical moments, Mo Hu has completely ignored it.

However, how could things go as Mo Hu wished?
The people from the Yin Yang Palace had already been placed beside him, and when they saw him leaving the city wall without authorization, they rushed up and grabbed his reins tightly.

"What are you going to do!"

Mo Hu was furious, raised his whip at the same time, and whipped his head and face at the people in Yin Yang Palace.

However, just took two whips.

Mo Hu then heard a strange whistling sound.

He suddenly turned his head, looked towards the sky where the sound was coming from, and was about to burst into tears.

the other side.

Zhao Kun and others did not find the key in the end, but adopted Jiang Chao's method.

A large number of bombs and grenades brought over by Gongshuchou were placed on the stone gate, and they were also densely packed in rows.

"This power is probably many times greater than before!"

Zhao Kun looked at the bombs and grenades on the stone gate, swallowed, and said in a dry voice.

Jiang Chao looked at it for a while, and found that all the lead wires and pull rings had been arranged, and then said to Zhao Kun; "It's time to start, let's go out first!"

"Okay, everyone stay away!"

Zhao Kun nodded slightly, and then cautiously exited the cave.

If you are not careful, if one explodes, all the bombs and grenades explode, then the game is over.

After Jiang Chao and Ye Yuebai exited the volcano about 1000 meters away, Zhao Kun lit the fuse and ran away at top speed.

Rumbling--

About ten minutes after the fuse was ignited, there was a violent explosion inside the volcano, and then half of the entire volcano top was blown away.

suddenly!

A silver light shot up into the sky.

Even if it is daytime, it is too bright to keep your eyes open.

"What's the situation? What was it just now?"

Zhao Kun closed his eyes and asked subconsciously.

"I don't know either, just open your eyes and have a look." Ye Yuebai stammered.

"Can you open your eyes?" Zhao Kun asked with a frown.

Huangshi Gongdao: "It's ok."

"This"

Zhao Kun slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a shocking picture.

I saw that the originally silent crater suddenly had a transparent light curtain.

Inside the light curtain, there is also a small room about ten square meters. The small room is silver-gray, with soft blue light flickering around it, accompanied by the vibration of the ground.

"What is this?" Jiang Chao asked suspiciously, "Where did Shimen go?"

"Let's go and have a look first, and you'll know when you see it!"

Huang Shigong waved his hand, and before everyone could react, he walked up the mountain alone.

Ye Yuebai glanced at Zhao Kun, and said hesitantly, "Should we go there?"

"It's all here, so naturally we have to go." Zhao Kun looked at Huang Shigong's back and said, "I'm also curious about what that is!"

"In that case, let's go!" Jiang Chao echoed: "Anyway, this is our only clue."

After speaking, he followed Zhao Kun and walked straight to the small room.

Yeyuebai saw that they had all left, and it was not good to stay here by herself, so she could only bite the bullet and rushed forward.

When Zhao Kun and the others came to the transparent light curtain, a strange suction sucked them in instantly.

They thought they would appear outside the small room, but they did not expect to appear inside the small room.

To their surprise, there was nothing in the small room from this era, but some devices of unknown purpose.

All sorts of gauges, and lines that were way ahead of its time, and chairs, shelves, things like that.

What really surprised Zhao Kun was that there was a window in that small room, like a window in a certain ship's cabin.

"Damn it! No way!"
