A ray of morning light broke through the darkness before dawn and cast towards the Jin army's formation. The Yiyang Hu garrison finally saw clearly the true appearance of this army: they were large in number, arranged in square formations in units of songs, and the platoons

At the front are the huge bed crossbows, trebuchets, and stone crossbows. Behind these amazingly powerful instruments are three rows of archers, holding strong bows and powerful crossbows, ready to go; behind these three rows of archers are

Thousands of soldiers, their heavy iron armor shone coldly in the morning light, their armor was as light as scales, and their spears were like reeds; behind them were more light infantry, they were unkempt and dressed in the Jin army's standard armor, but their mental outlook was different from that of the Jin army.

The Jin army was very different, looking more like a pack of hungry wolves, ready to pounce on them and tear them apart at any time, swallowing their fur and bones together!

On both sides of the huge phalanx were heavy cavalry wearing heavy armor, which was the trump card of the Jin army. Their several failures in attacking Luoyang were closely related to these iron cans.

Jin Yuan stood on the tower and looked at the densely arranged Jin army formation. His eyelids twitched slightly and he smiled ferociously: "The Jin people have shown some of the bravery of their ancestors. It's fun to fight against such an opponent! Go tell the two of them.

A great general, the Jin people are sending out their elite troops to attack the city, let them get ready!"

As for what he had prepared, he didn't say anything, and it didn't need to be said. It was just taking advantage of his large number of cavalry and extremely fast speed to find the right opportunity to stab the Jin army hard. There was nothing new.

The Jin army is here.

Yang Chen looked at Bei Gongjing: "Major General, why haven't you launched an attack yet?"

Bei Gongjing said: "The wind is in the wrong direction."

Yang Chen was startled: "Which direction is the wind?"

Bei Gongjing said: "Yes. Every day at sunrise, the wind direction of Luohe River will change, blowing from our army to Yiyang City. This is the best time to launch an attack."

Yang Chen said: "If you shoot an arrow with the wind, the range will be doubled and the power will be much greater. It is indeed the best time. The young general is really observant on the battlefield. Thanks to you commanding on the battlefield, if you let me come, you can take advantage of it."

You can’t get such a big deal.”

Bei Gongjing said: "Your Excellency, you even know the advantages of shooting an arrow with the wind. You are really knowledgeable."

Yang Chen was slightly proud: "I was an archer who could shoot left and right ten years ago, how could I not even know this bit of common sense!"

Bei Gongjing said: "My Lord Attendant is still able to ride a horse and shoot Hulu with his bow from left to right."

Yang Chen sighed: "Old man, it's useless. The war depends entirely on you young people!"

Li Rui suddenly said: "The direction of the wind has changed."

Needless to say, Bei Gongjing also knew that the wind direction had changed. The wind originally blew from the river, blowing diagonally across the Jin army's formation, but now it blew straight towards Yiyang City, and the wind was quite strong. North

Gong Jing showed a satisfied look. He asked the Jin Army sergeant from Yiyang to find out that at this time of year, the wind direction in Yiyang was unpredictable. It was completely different in the morning and noon, and in the afternoon and night. And whether the fire attack could be successful.

, Wind direction is a very important factor. He has been observing the wind direction for the past few days and found that everything was exactly as the sergeant said, so he simply gave up the plan of a surprise attack, lined up his formation and waited quietly for the wind direction to change.

It really made him wait.

He looked at the big flag waving towards Yiyang City and said to Yang Chen: "Your Excellency, the time has come."

Yang Chen nodded to express his understanding, then raised his jade Ruyi and shouted an order: "Blow the trumpets, beat the drums, and the whole army will attack. I will conquer Yiyang and kill all the barbarians!"

The three armies roared in unison: "Crush Yiyang and kill all the barbarians!!!"

The trumpeter blew the horn, and the gloomy and desolate sound resounded throughout the battlefield. The drummer beat the drum hard, and the drum beat was as fast as the wind and rain. It seemed that even the air was vibrating. Others didn't know, but Li Rui felt that all over his body

My blood was boiling, and I couldn't help but tighten my grip on the sunset bow in my hand.

Not far away, Sima Yue was sitting on a gorgeous carriage, listening to the exciting drums and trumpets in front of him, showing a hint of ridicule: "Yang Chen, that old man, really led his few men and horses to the battlefield."

Yiyang has launched an attack, hey! Is Yiyang that easy to fight? Sometimes he cries!"

Wang Yan also laughed: "There are nearly 10,000 garrison troops in Yiyang City, and the city is strong. With just 20,000 people, it is just a dream... I'm afraid that at sunset today, there will be no more water in the world. Shoot."

Sound, the more you ride, the more Liangzhou troops will be gone!"

Sima Yue looked very excited: "Hurry up and send someone to that old man, keep an eye on him, and report back anytime if anything happens. I want to see how he gives away the only elites in his hands little by little, and then howls."

Cry!"

Wang Yan responded and immediately sent someone over.

Accompanied by bursts of drums, the archers of the Shesheng Battalion came out, holding strong bows, setting up rockets, and fired fiercely at the fence. For a while, the bowstrings trembled continuously, and the rockets streaked across the sky and landed on the fence.

On the fence, the sound of beep, beep, beep was endless, and in the blink of an eye, a section of the fence more than 300 meters long was filled with rockets. The barbarian archers also drew their strong bows and shot at the Jin army, but because they were against the wind,

When shooting arrows, the range and accuracy were greatly reduced. Most of the arrows were nailed to the ground, posing no threat.

After the fence was filled with rockets, Bei Gongjing shouted: "Get the stone crossbow ready!!!"

The strong men responsible for loading the stone crossbows immediately carefully picked up the round clay pots and brought the mouth of the pot close to the torch. Immediately, the linen cloth used to block the mouth of the pot started to burn. These strong men were like holding a hot potato.

As if, he quickly put the clay pot into the chute. The officer commanding the stone crossbow didn't even want to wait for a second. As soon as it was loaded, he shouted:

"put!"

"put!!"

"put!!!"

If you listen carefully, you will find that their voices are trembling slightly...

The strong man in charge of firing the weapon swung the sledgehammer and hit it hard. The string that was stretched to the limit was released, driving the clay pot weighing more than 20 kilograms to move forward at high speed along the greased chute, pulling each one down.

The flaming clay jar was thrown out... When the clay jar was successfully thrown out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, wiped on cold sweat, and prepared to reload and launch.

This thing makes my heart tremble just looking at it! Why are they so miserable and responsible for launching this thing? If something goes wrong in the middle, they will be burned to ashes, and maybe there will be no ashes left!

One by one, the clay cans pulled out arcs, flew over a distance of more than 200 meters, and hit the fence accurately, smashing into pieces, and the gasoline inside sprayed out. By coincidence, the fence was now covered with nails.

Rockets, these rockets are not enough to ignite the fence, but they are more than enough to ignite the gasoline. Only a series of dull explosions can be heard, as if someone has released a forbidden fire spell. Large tracts of flames rolled up, and many people were hiding in the fire.

The barbarian behind the fence even got splashed all over him and turned into a burning man in an instant! As Bei Gongjing said, dry moso bamboo is very easy to burn, much easier to burn than logs. This can of gasoline can

He smashed it hard and immediately lit fires on the fence, and the fence made of moso bamboo burst into flames.

Afraid that the fire was not burning fiercely enough, Bei Gongjing ordered the stone crossbow to be fired again. This time, the fire was diesel. Diesel cannot be ignited by an open flame at normal temperature. It must be set on fire first, and then pour the diesel on it after the fire is strong.

, only in this way can we achieve a very good burning effect... It may sound a bit tasteless, but it is better than nothing. No, when more than a dozen cans of diesel were swung over, the flames that were already strong enough shot up several meters high.

A large number of barbarian archers standing on the fence were covered in fire. They threw away their crossbows and howled, jumping down from the fence more than three meters high in an attempt to put out the fire. But it turned out that it was in vain.

The wind kept blowing, making the flames burn even more fiercely. Almost in the blink of an eye, the three-hundred-meter-long bamboo fence was all ablaze. The flames shot into the sky, and the billowing smoke drifted toward Yiyang along with the wind. Standing on the Yiyang City Wall

When I looked up, all I could see was thick smoke and sparks flying all over the sky. There was nothing else. A large number of Hu soldiers were horrified, shouting wildly in the thick smoke and fire, and running around in chaos.

Running around, I fell into the trench and was pierced by a bamboo stick. I bumped into the sharp antlers and was stabbed to the core. Before the two sides came into contact, they were already dead and wounded!

Jin Yuan was dumbfounded: "How...how could the fire burn so fast? Can Jin people know magic?"

The deputy general said: "I heard from the two generals that this is the secret weapon of the Jin people. They were defeated by this secret weapon in Xincheng and lost many elite soldiers."

Jin Yuan has heard of this statement, but he always thought that it was just Shi Le and Hu Yanyan making excuses for their tragic defeat. When the battle reached this point, the Jin army had already taken out all the guys at the bottom of the box.

, where are the secret weapons? Even if there are secret weapons, they are nothing more than bed crossbows and chariots, and their power will definitely not be as outrageous as they said. But it was not until now that he discovered that what those two guys said

It was actually true, the Jin army really had such a weapon that was far more powerful than they imagined!

This can't even be called a weapon, it should be called magic!

How could he be so unlucky that he could be attacked by the Jin army's magic even while guarding Yiyang!

This was not over yet. Taking advantage of the sudden fire that shocked the defenders to death, Yang Jun also commanded the stone crossbows and thunderbolt chariots to fire stone bullets at several weak fences surrounding Beigongjing. Because Hu

The soldiers were so distraught that they boldly pushed their stone crossbows and thunderbolt carts only a hundred meters away from the fence, and shot stone bullets weighing twenty kilograms one after another with almost a slap in the face. The thunderbolt carts were actually catapults with wheels on them.

It has a larger range than the stone crossbow, but it cannot shoot flatly like the stone crossbow. The accuracy is difficult to control. It is not an ideal weapon for destroying fences. But today, with the help of God, the Jin army fired six thunderbolts at once.

, four stone bullets hit the fence. As Bei Gongjing said, fences built with substandard wood were extremely fragile, and the stone bullets easily penetrated them, causing pieces of wood to fly everywhere.

The inspired Jin army buried their heads and pretended to fight fiercely. For a while, there was a loud bang, bang, bang, and bang. The sound of wood breaking and breaking was heart-shaking, and the gaps in the fence quickly expanded...
