The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 356 Drilling Paratroopers
The first batch of parachutes delivered to Lu Bu was only one hundred.

From the perspective of workmanship, not only the blacksmith put his heart into it, but even the tailor did his best to make the parachute more refined.

"Marquis Chu, are these parachutes?" Following behind Lu Bu, looking at the parachute in front of him, Sun Ce asked, "Are these parachutes?"

"Exactly." Lu Bu said: "With them, the soldiers can suddenly appear behind Cao's army and catch them by surprise."

Sun Ce was stunned.

Back then in Wancheng, when he saw a glider for the first time, he thought it was a big bird flying in the night sky.

It happened that these "big birds" brought disaster to him and the Jiangdong Army guarding Wancheng.

It was these "big birds" that made him lose Wancheng, became Lu Bu's prisoner, and then became Lu Bu's personal general.

The more days he followed Lu Bu, the more Sun Ce felt that it was a good choice to serve Lu Bu with the entire Jiangdong.

Don't say anything else, just talk about these things I have seen since I followed Lu Bu.

Gliders, hot air balloons and now parachutes...

Which one had he seen or even dared to think about?
Cao Cao found a way to deal with the air force. The second time he attacked Dangshan, he was defeated by Lu Bu and left in a panic?

It's too scary to be an opponent with someone like Lu Bu...

"Bo Fu, ask someone to bring a parachute and follow me to the air force barracks." Lu Bu told Sun Ce.

Sun Ce ordered the guards on the side: "Put on the parachutes quickly."

The guard took the order, carried the basket full of parachutes, and followed the two to the air force barracks.

In recent days, Zhao Yun has been practicing the air force every day.

Hearing that Lu Bu was coming, he left the school grounds and went to the Yuanmen.

After seeing the ceremony, he looked at the parachute in the basket: "Why did Marquis Chu send so many thin blankets?"

Lu Bu and Sun Ce were immediately covered in black lines.

Sun Ce replied, "When did General Zhao ever see a blanket tied with a rope?"

"Uh..." Zhao Yun replied with some embarrassment: "I just think these blankets are a bit weird..."

"These are parachutes." Lu Bu asked, "Is the mood of the air force officers and soldiers better recently?"

"Reporting to the Marquis of Chu, it has improved a lot." Zhao Yun replied: "Most of the soldiers have come out of the second battle of Dangshan. When they meet Cao Jun again, although they will be a little more careful, they will not be afraid of Cao Jun. Specially used to break their ordnance."

"In any fight, both sides will try their best to put new ordnance on the battlefield, so as to minimize the casualties of soldiers and kill the enemy." Lu Bu said: "Although the air force is flying in the sky, there are not no ordnance to restrain them. You know Birds fly in the sky, and there are bows and arrows and crossbows that can shoot them down. Even if the air force flies higher, one day they will encounter weapons that can restrain them. If there is no such awareness, our air force will probably It can be disbanded."

"What Chuhou said is true." Zhao Yun responded first, and then asked Lu Bu: "Dare to ask Chuhou, how are these parachutes used?"

"Don't rush to let the soldiers use it." Lu Bu said: "Find a hot air balloon and bring some heavy objects like people. Let's fly into the air together. I will teach you how to use it."

"After all, the parachute is for people to jump from midair." Lu Bu would not allow soldiers to use it directly in midair.

People without any proficiency in operation, even if they fall from midair with a parachute, are very likely to fall and die...

Zhao Yun agreed and ordered the guards on the side to prepare a hot air balloon.

In recent days, the Air Force has been practicing every day, and the balloons are also ready anytime and anywhere.

Accompanied by Zhao Yun and Sun Ce, Lu Bu boarded a hot air balloon.

In addition, a guard carried up a log soaked in tung oil.

The log was placed on the hot air balloon, and Lu Bu ordered the soldiers to tie it to the falling mountain.

When the balloon was slowly lifted into the sky, Zhao Yun said to Lu Bu: "Hou Chu, the balloon will shake a little in mid-air..."

"I know." Lu Bu said, "Be careful when you turn around and drop the parachute, and don't overturn the hot air balloon."

"That's not the case." Zhao Yun replied: "The hot air balloon is still very stable in mid-air, and it's really not easy to overturn it."

Lu Bu nodded and said nothing more.

The charcoal fire on the hot air balloon was ignited, and as the heat surged up, the balloon inflated little by little.

When the hot air filled the entire balloon, the balloon began to shake slightly.

Zhao Yun nodded to a soldier standing outside the balloon.

The soldier stepped forward and untied the rope that bound the balloon.

The rope was untied, and he jerked it upwards, while a soldier on the balloon reached out to grab it, and then coiled it into a coil and placed it in the corner of the balloon.

As the balloon slowly lifted into the sky, the scenery before Lu Bu's eyes became farther and farther away...

When the balloon finally hovered in the air, he asked Zhao Yun, "Can it be higher?"

Zhao Yun replied: "This is already the highest, if you go any higher, the balloon will not be stable."

Lu Bu nodded and didn't let the balloon go up again.

Although the Air Force has not been established recently, they have more experience in flying than Lu Bu.

Especially for hot air balloons, which are almost primitive flying tools for people after 2000, their maneuverability and stability are extremely poor, and it is not easy to be able to rise to such a high level.

When the hot air balloon stabilized, Lu Bu ordered several guards on the balloon: "Throw down the stake with the parachute attached."

The guards agreed, lifted the stake, and threw it out forcefully.

The stake left the hot air balloon and fell to the ground in free fall. ,

Since the parachute does not have a bag, the parachute opens almost as soon as it falls.

Watching the fallen wooden piles slowly fall to the ground under the action of the parachute, Zhao Yun asked Lv Bu in astonishment: "Is this the kind of thing Chu Hou said?"

"With it, soldiers can jump from mid-air." Lu Bu said: "For Cao Jun, the soldiers who landed in mid-air are undoubtedly heavenly soldiers, but when selecting paratroopers, you must make it clear to them that paratroopers are born It is to be surrounded by the enemy. Once they land, they will face a situation where they have no support or support and can only fight alone. Soldiers who are not prepared for these should not consider becoming paratroopers."

"I understand what Marquis Chu means." Zhao Yun agreed.

After the age of Lu Bu, he said: "People are different from wooden stakes. If they jump from such a high place, they will definitely be a little flustered. If they fall, they will hold on to the parachute tightly, but no one can save them. It will take a few more days of practice before the paratroopers can take to the skies."

"How to practice, I ask the Marquis of Chu to show me clearly." Zhao Yun clasped his hands and asked.

"The specific training method is here." Lu Bu took out a piece of silk with many small characters written on it and handed it to Zhao Yun: "The war is coming, and you only have half a month to use. During this half month, I will try to let as many people as possible." Make parachutes. In addition, you have to tell the soldiers that after landing, as long as conditions permit, it is best to hide the parachute first, and find it after the battle for future use.”

"I've written down what the Marquis of Chu told me." Zhao Yun immediately agreed.

Having verified that the parachute can be used, Lu Bu ordered the soldiers operating the hot air balloon: "Let's go down!"

The soldier ordered to open a small opening in the partition at the top of the balloon.

Some of the hot air in the balloon rushed out through the small opening, and when it began to slowly descend, the soldiers closed the partition again.

Although these were designed by Lu Bu himself, he has never experienced the actual operation.

The soldiers who manipulate the hot air balloons are very skilled, which shows that they are already very familiar with these facilities on weekdays.

The balloon landed slowly, and because the soldiers were proficient in handling it, there was not much bump when it landed.

Leaving the balloon, Lu Bu said to Zhao Yun, "Zilong recruits paratroopers first, and I'll come back in two days to see how your drills are going."

Zhao Yun replied, "Don't worry, Marquis Chu, the paratroopers can jump from the sky in less than half a month, at most five or six days."

"Before the expedition, each paratrooper jumped from the sky at least ten times." Lu Bu said: "Without enough proficiency, when the soldiers arrive on the battlefield, they may have problems in mid-air before landing. The paratroopers are inserted The sharp knife in the enemy's heart is often the key to victory on the battlefield. They must not only be the elite of the army, but also have a strong heart. You must know that not everyone can become a paratrooper."

"I will pass on Chuhou's words to them." Zhao Yun replied.

Lu Bu didn't stay in the air force barracks for too long. After talking to Zhao Yun, he left the camp.

After leaving the camp, Sun Ce asked Lu Bu, "Master Chu, the paratroopers are so powerful that they can determine the success or failure of the battlefield?"

"Of course." Lu Bu said, "They launch a surprise attack behind the enemy's back, and the enemy is basically defenseless. When the enemy's rear is in chaos, our army will kill them in a big way. How can there be any reason why it will not succeed?"

"What Chuhou said is true." Sun Ce agreed, and then asked Lu Bu, "It's just that Zilong is the commander of the air force, if he is allowed to command the paratroopers again..."

"You mean..." In fact, Lu Bu had thought of this question a long time ago, but he never thought of a suitable candidate.

Sun Ce replied, "I can recommend someone to the Marquis of Chu."

"Please tell me, Bofu!" Lu Bu signaled him to continue.

"Taishi Ziyi." Sun Ce said, "He is good at wielding a pair of short halberds. Although he is brave and invincible on horseback, he is even more powerful when fighting on foot."

Lu Bu looked at Sun Ce, nodded and said, "Tai Shi Ziyi is indeed suitable to be the commander of the paratroopers, and I always feel that Zilong's role as the commander of the air force has given him many constraints."

"General Zhao is good at using guns." Sun Ce replied: "It is inconvenient for the air force to carry long guns, and it is indeed not suitable for him to fly around in mid-air."

"Who is the most suitable commander of the air force?" Lu Bu asked Sun Ce again.

Sun Ce replied, "I don't know much about Chuhou's former subordinates, but I know Jiangdong's generals better."

"Most of the generals who followed me were good at using long weapons." Lu Bu said: "Bo Fu thinks who is suitable, just say it."

"I don't think the commander of the air force needs to go into battle in person." Sun Ce replied: "The charge can be weaker, but you must know how to strategize."

"Tell me what you mean." Lu Bu motioned him to continue.

"I think Lu Su can be the commander of the air force." Sun Ce said: "Lu Su is a honest man. I have seen the air force fight a few times before. If it is used on the battlefield, it should be used more frequently than a full-scale attack. Lu Su is the commander of the air force. , has been able to do it.”

Lu Bu thought for a while, and said to Sun Ce: "You are right. With the paratroopers, the air force will no longer need a strong general like Zilong to be the commander. Zilong's skills should be used to charge frontally, not to lead the air force. Flying around in mid-air."

"What Chuhou said is true." Sun Ce replied: "It's just that Lu Su is not in Pengcheng now, and sending someone to invite him back will take 20 days at least. Let him take over the air force, I'm afraid it will delay the fighter."

"Bo Fu means..." Lu Bu frowned slightly.

"It's better to fight first, and wait until Lu Zijing arrives, then it won't be too late to change generals." Sun Ce said: "With Lu Zijing's ability, I think he can take over the air force in a few days."

"According to Bo Fu." Lu Bu nodded in response to Sun Ce's proposal.

In the barracks, Zhao Yun summoned the air force officers and soldiers to the high platform.

With his hands on his hips, he looked around at the soldiers below the high platform: "You should know why you were summoned here."

The soldiers looked at him one by one, and they already understood what he wanted to do with some active minds.

Zhao Yun accompanied Lu Bu to fly around the sky in a balloon, and they also dropped a piece of wood with a parachute attached to it. The call for soldiers at this time was obviously to recruit paratroopers.

"Just now Marquis Chu took me around in the sky." Zhao Yun said to the soldiers, "You should all have seen what we threw down from above."

Of course the soldiers knew that they still planted a log, and the field was surprisingly quiet, everyone was waiting for Zhao Yun to speak.

"The Marquis of Chu asked someone to make a parachute. From today onwards, the air force will never fall behind the enemy's rear in future operations." Zhao Yun said: "Only the paratroopers fell behind the enemy's rear. I summoned you here to ask You, who would like to be a paratrooper? Would like to stab the enemy in the back?"

Although the wood fell to the ground relatively slowly, the soldiers were still a little apprehensive about jumping from mid-air.

There were thousands of airmen standing on the school grounds, but no one responded.

"What?" No one responded, Zhao Yun smiled coldly: "Are you really afraid of being beaten by Cao Jun? Now that you have new weapons and tactics, you dare not try again? Back then, you wanted to be like a big bird." Where did the warriors flying in the sky go? Now that you have the opportunity to descend from the sky, you are all afraid? Is it true that there is no one in the Air Force who can be sent to the stage?"

"It's not that we didn't want to, we just jumped down from mid-air..." A timid voice came from the array: "If you fall to your death, don't talk about meritorious deeds, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see what the enemy looks like."
