Chapter 2081 Waiting for work

Cheng Ying did not panic at all when facing the enemies besieging the city. His ability to master artillery far exceeded theirs. Even if the opponent is good at engineering, it will be difficult to defeat the city in such a short period of time. What's more important is that they lack the tools at hand, and even digging trenches is quite laborious.

When they left, they carried fire-breathing equipment made by a few craftsmen in the city to kill the ants.

There were not many shovels in his hands, because the soldiers who had escaped before said that the shovels were useless. But of course this was to fool them. Don't let them go out with these tools. Naturally, it is because these tools play an important role in attacking cities.

Even if the number of artillery is small, if trenches can be dug. In theory, it can also be pushed under the city wall to provide fire cover for the attacking infantry.

There are a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city. If they are allowed to defend the city, they may not be able to defend it if the enemy breaks through the city wall.

Cheng Ying knew this very well, so when this group of people left, they were almost not allowed to carry shovels and other equipment that could dig the soil.

There are almost no cities around. Although they can find villages, the number of farm tools that can be borrowed from the villages is very small, which is not enough to complete this kind of project. Their only way to survive is to capture the city. If they cannot capture it, , can only transform into a robber. Burn, kill, and loot the surrounding villages to obtain their food and maintain the survival of your own legion.

Cheng Ying also knew what these people would do if they were forced into a hurry, so his initial purpose was to rape all of them, or at least to collect them all.

The artillery fire just now has caused them to lose their position, even though the city is full of a group of old, weak, sick and disabled. But in fact, there is still a group of elite soldiers and generals.

That was the group of people he brought back personally. Those people who were controlled by insects after they were parasitized on their bodies.

They can be considered elites in the city. At least they are soldiers after training. It is much stronger than the temporarily organized militia now.

Relying on them, if the enemy is chaotic enough, they can break up their formation. If the crowd has no formation, fighting in such an era has almost no chance of winning.

Cheng Ying is not in a hurry to launch an attack, but is constantly preparing. The artillery on the city wall currently has an advantage in terms of range. In the process, he can continue to kill the enemy for nothing, and use continuous bombing to make the opponent have insufficient morale. After a long time, the combat effectiveness will naturally become weak.

More importantly, his technology can improve the artillery of this era to a certain extent.

For example, let's let the artillery that can only fire solid shells fire something that explodes like a grenade when it hits the ground.

The risk of these things exploding in the barrel is indeed very high, but after certain modifications are made to these artillery pieces and the sugar pressure they can withstand is increased, it is actually possible to theoretically launch high-explosive shells.

The simplest method is actually similar to how to fix wooden barrels in this era. Place circles of red-hot iron hoops around the cannon. After these red-hot iron rings shrink, they can be tightly hooped around the barrel. This increases the stress the gun can withstand. In this way, at least the risk of explosion is much smaller, and you can try to use modified high-explosive ammunition.

The cannonballs this time were also carefully polished. They were no longer spherical as before, and spiral rifling was added to the inside of the cannon. Under the processing of his powerful control ability, both the range and power of these cannons were greatly enhanced. The transformation only took more than a day. Each artillery was transformed in turn. After all the transformations were completed, slender warheads like bullets were stuffed inside. Then, with the improved impact ignition method, these warheads were successfully detonated. , letting them fly far away and land in the enemy's position that was originally out of reach.

These cannonballs follow a spiral trajectory in mid-air, and are even more stable than ordinary cannonballs.

As a result, after the cannonballs landed on the enemy's position, they were almost exactly the same as the predicted weaknesses. One of the cannonballs almost landed directly in the Chinese army camp and landed in the tent where the city lord originally lived. . What's more important is that the cannonballs this time are no longer solid cannonballs, but types that can explode after landing.

After the cannonball that landed next to the city lord's tent exploded, countless small steel balls exploded from it. These small steel balls scattered in all directions, and after landing everywhere, they were like high-speed bullets, showing extremely strong lethality.

Soldiers screamed and were hit by these small steel balls. The city lord was hit in the shoulder. Although he was not killed directly, he made a miserable scream. The city lord's voice immediately caused the morale of the surrounding soldiers to plummet. Some people even In the chaos, he subconsciously thought that his leader was dead and started to escape.

And the chaos continued, because there were more than one such shells, which kept falling among the legions, leaving them with no way to rest peacefully and could only continue to retreat a certain distance to camp.

However, things were far from being as simple as they imagined. As soon as they retreated a certain distance, the shells hit them. Obviously the retreat distance was not enough. Just now, these cannons did not show their ultimate range. They only hit the closest row of houses, making people think that their ultimate range was only that far.

Relying on this method of continuous harassment for three consecutive days, the enemies outside the city retreated again and again, and there was no way to sleep at night, and there were a lot of casualties. The army was already on the verge of collapse. That said, if it weren't for the high prestige of the old city lord, I'm afraid everyone would have run away by this time.

In such a harsh atmosphere, more weapons are being manufactured in the city, and they have better performance. More importantly, the range of these weapons is too far, even if they have retreated quite far away from the city. There is no way to prevent these weapons from falling on them. The most helpless one is a kind of unmanned aircraft. This thing can’t even be called a drone, because it doesn’t even have power, it’s like a folded paper airplane. This thing is lowered from a hot air balloon that rises high in the sky, and then glides in mid-air with a bomb. It can glide for several kilometers, and then explodes after falling into the target's position.

And this kind of thing seems to be free of charge, like pigeons all over the sky. He flew down from the hot air balloon and flew towards the legion's position. The explosions this time were even more exaggerated than the previous artillery shells, and they were beyond the effective range of the artillery in the city. However, these strange explosions were The strange birds can fall down normally.

What they don't know is that these things actually contain a certain degree of magical power. Otherwise, although it is possible to cross such a long distance, the weakness after gliding will actually be very crooked.

After all, there are more factors that affect gliding than cannonballs. These winged gliders will be affected by the wind in mid-air. The influence of airflow a few kilometers away is enough to make them deviate from their target by a hundred thousand. Come thousands of miles.

But the problem is that there are ways in this world that allow them to control the way they float relatively easily. The easiest way is to control it remotely via radio.

In this era like the Middle Ages, building a radio-controlled self-destruction aircraft sounds quite magical, but in fact, it is quite feasible if it is combined with the magic of this world.

The remote-controlled targets on the aircraft only need a few simple devices.First of all, it can receive electromagnetic signals, and then it only needs a small power supply and two coils to control the wings.Two coils can control the raising or lowering of the tail of the wings, so that the flight trajectory can be adjusted in mid-air.Or just use one control fin.

Although the control effect will be weaker, the cost will be saved to a certain extent. As for controlling such a simple device, it is true that a more powerful electromagnetic wave generator is needed. Although this world does not have all kinds of electromagnetic interference, it is still difficult to release electromagnetic waves that can propagate far enough with existing technology. Unless the person releasing the electromagnetic waves is a mage.

Among Chengying's prisoners was a mage. Although this move is not included in the opponent's spells, it can be learned immediately. After all, it has been parasitized. This level of control is still very simple.

After letting the mage learn how to master the electromagnetic force and emit electromagnetic waves with sufficient power, he can control the mage and remotely control the planes in the sky, constantly controlling his flight trajectory, adjusting the trajectory, and aiming under the correct circumstances. The direction of the enemy's formation. Amidst the violent explosions, one tent after another was blown into the sky.

At this time, the city lord was almost in despair. Even though he had retreated nearly ten miles away, he could still be bombed by various weapons in the city. This was beyond his understanding of war. If this continues, He felt that he was bound to lose.

People in the city can hurt their lives without any risk, and if they don't leave now, they may not be able to leave in the future.

And just when they were about to change their strategy, turn the dock and plunder the surrounding countryside, and first incarnate themselves to emphasize replenishing their own food, someone had already passed through that night. The telescopes observed their actions, and a large number of soldiers and high-ranking nobles began to pack their luggage and prepare to evacuate, which meant that the deadline for their departure was indeed not far away. This kind of existence cannot be let go.

So in the dark night before they set off, someone fell silently on the city wall. This time, there were more than 300 people, all the elite soldiers in the city. If they didn't succeed this time, they were annihilated instead. , then the city does not have enough power to protect the city.

However, this battle is impossible to fail, because these people are no longer ordinary people. After studying the previous knight, it is not difficult to find that the cultivation system of this world is basically the same as that of the ancient continent.

Cheng Ying is quite familiar with the relevant training systems. He also understands how to cultivate fighting spirit. Although it requires a certain amount of talent, if the bugs that inhabit these bodies are allowed to modify their physical fitness, this will This kind of talent is not too difficult to obtain, but during this period of time, these people controlled by the bugs had to perform various high-intensity exercises. Their bodies were not under their control, and they passively performed various high-intensity exercises. Intense physical training, so that their physical fitness is much stronger than before when they have enough food to supplement them in the past few days.

Among them, a few have vaguely mastered the use of fighting spirit. In this case, although they have not reached the true first level, their combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary people. In addition, The person who controls them is once a strong man, and his ability to control these bodies is even stronger than that of their original owners. As they practiced again and again, they became more and more familiar with the moves, and more and more people had fighting spirit. Although the next battle will still use cold weapons, the individual combat effectiveness is far superior.

In terms of formation, it completely crushed the enemy. The opponent was a legion composed of ordinary people, so when facing the enemy, they might be afraid, so that their own formation was in chaos, but this time these people were all parasitized by insects. , even if they are afraid in their hearts, the insects will not.

So as long as their formation is formed, as long as they can see each other. Theoretically, it is possible for each other to maintain the formation, so there is no possibility of being broken up. They will remain calm at all times and will not disobey orders because of panic. This kind of legion is almost the most powerful mortal legion in the world at some level. At least it is almost impossible to defeat with the same number of people.

And they had gotten enough rest these days. Although the original owner of the body was a little worried, since they were not killed, it meant that their stay was still useful. At least I got enough rest physically.

The legions below the city were constantly harassed by artillery and bombed again and again, making it impossible for them to sleep at night. Even during the day, you must be on guard at all times. Working shifts is simply out of the question. An extremely outrageous telescope was added to it. You can clearly see everything happening in the distance. Once someone takes a shift, the bombing will focus on the sleeping group.

In such a sleepy situation, many people have a nervous breakdown before they even start fighting. Not to mention that after the two armies collide, it is a competition of wills. There was no need to fight at all, and they had already fled.
