Looking at the huge monster in front of him, Mang Gurtai quickly calmed down.
He immediately ordered the messenger next to him to prepare rockets.
Yes, rocket, this was the attack method that he immediately thought of.
For such a big monster, it's covered in flesh.
Meat can be burned.
One of his favorite things in the past was to drive the Han slaves into the house, light a fire, and burn them together. Then, listening to their roars of pain, he drank wine and ate meat.
This was one of his favorite things to do, to burn those Han people alive.
There are many benefits to doing this. It can not only save knives, bows and arrows, but also save energy. It can also avoid the plague after burning it with fire. It kills multiple birds with one stone.
However, in many cases, people who are burned will struggle violently and try their best to escape, so it is a lot of trouble to tie them up with ropes in advance, and setting a fire can easily affect yourself.
Therefore, there are not many times when people can do this kind of thing. They usually kill people before burning them.
Soon the rocket will be ready.
Someone lit the rocket with a fire stick, aimed at the monster and prepared to release the arrow.
Following Mang Gurtai's order, hundreds of rockets were fired at the big ship monster.
The monster like a big ship just shook its body. There were countless snakes on it, some were shaking, some were vibrating consciously, and some were dancing randomly.
Some of the rockets were shot down, and more hit it.
However, before they could be happy, they saw a lot of mucus coming out of the big ship monster's skin, and they put out the rockets directly.
Didn't cause any flames at all.
At this moment, Gushan, who was nearby, said to Mang Gurtai: "Master Beile, we should give it the fire oil of Han Dog first."
"I remember that the Han people defended the city and always used fire oil. Once it burned on us, even if it rolled into the earth, it was difficult to put it out. As for water, it couldn't be done at all."
"First pour the fire oil on the monster, and then set off rockets to burn it. Otherwise, the monster will always produce mucus and we won't be able to light it. However, even if the fire oil is poured with water, it will still burn."
"Very good, Shan Bian, take someone to find Menghuo Oil for me right away." Mang Gurtai was overjoyed and immediately ordered.
They have already robbed many cities, and they must have Menghuo oil. It just depends on whether the baggage team has collected it.
After all, Menghuo oil has long been used in city defense.
Fuel is still a relatively precious material, so Gushan thinks it should be collected.
Especially oil.
And this monster didn't seem to care about them or these little bugs.
Although they suffered an attack, they still did not launch any attack on them.
Of course, the main reason is that they are shooting from a long range, and some snake heads on the monster have begun to look around for targets to attack it.
But those snake heads, plus the snake body, are only seven or eight meters long at most.
And the distance they shot at was between 110 and 120 meters.
Therefore they were not found.
No one dares to get too close to these monsters, even if they are ferocious, savage and powerful Jurchens.
One day later, Mang Gurtai waited until enough kerosene arrived.
That Gushan also brought hundreds of horses, each with two wooden barrels.
Each barrel was filled with pitch-black and pungent fire oil.
There should have been more, but it was the most during the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
However, during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, due to the development of firearms, this fire-oil warfare method declined due to its many flaws and high mining and transportation costs.
After all, there was a lack of oil producing areas in ancient times, and it was far less easy to prepare than black gunpowder.
Fortunately, I still found some. After all, this is the land of Gyeonggi.
After that, Mang Gurtai began to order people to throw fire oil forward.
Each person uses an earthenware jar, fills it with kerosene from a wooden barrel, and then throws it out.
It's just that the fire oil cans are used to defend the city, which means they are thrown from top to bottom.
If you throw it on the flat ground, it won't go very far. Judging from their strength, if they can throw it twenty-seven or eight meters, they are very powerful.
Obviously this distance is very dangerous.
Because the snakes on the big ship monster are usually seven or eight meters long.
And some of them are particularly long, more than ten meters long.
This also corresponds to the maximum length of the snake.
The key is that some of them can spray venom!
This is scary.
Body length Spray poison, which puts the thrower within attack range.
Manggu discovered a problem.
Some snakes are particularly clever and quick to respond.
They will attack quickly.
Some soldiers didn't know they could spray, so they ventured into the 20-meter range.
Then a ball of venom came down, and the whole person started to smoke on the spot, feeling as painful as a prisoner screaming in prison.
He also noticed that many of the rockets just now were shot down by those flexible poisonous snakes and did not hit the opponent.
However, most venomous snakes are relatively clumsy, as if they don't know how to fight back flexibly.
Just like ordinary venomous snakes.
It looks powerful, but is actually very slow to react.
They are all blind. As long as they sneak up and move slowly, they can catch the snake's head in one go.
He also caught many snakes in the mountains and forests.
There are not many venomous snakes in Liaodong. The main species is the pit viper, which is also a highly venomous snake.
But they are basically not afraid.
Then Manggu saw this and ordered: "Let them withdraw first, and then go find the catapult immediately."
"Yes, Master."
Several minions left together.
Soon they hired craftsmen to remove the wood from houses in nearby cities.
Trembling, he went to build a catapult.
The craftsmen also wanted to escape, but although the big ship monsters were scary, they were not as scary as those Donglu.
After all, big ship monsters usually only eat dead people, unless you want to attack it.
Donglu was defeated by the devil.
It seems that two days have passed quickly.
Manggu was just glad that they had killed enough people before, at least 20,000 to 30,000 people were killed in the city.
It's enough to feed the big ship monster for seventeen or eight days.
And the big ship monster, just like the animals that eat grass, allowed them to make traps and prepare for attacks, but still ignored them.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! No active attack at all, still instinctively looking for those corpses.
"He is indeed a beast and should be stepped on!" Mang Gu said excitedly.
Because he saw hope of defeating this monster.
No matter how big or powerful it is, so what?
If you have no brains and no fighting instinct, you will definitely die!
Just like the Ming Dynasty, it was large and useless, and would only be peeled and chopped down by their capable Jurchens, and chopped down bit by bit.
I saw the big ship monster eating corpses one after another.
It is eating desperately.
After eating one place, move slowly to the next place at half the speed of ordinary people walking.
Unless you are too scared to run, you can definitely escape.
Moreover, Manggu can also be seen when eating it, and the Jurchens who are watching can see that it is still growing.
It just grows very slowly.
In the past few days, it has probably gotten a little higher.
But they don't know how terrifying it actually is for such a behemoth to grow even just a little bit.
Because it means overcoming huge gravity.
Ordinarily, with such a size, it would have been crushed by its own weight.
Unless there are a lot of bones and they are made of titanium alloy, no, they should be Gundam alloy.
Only in this way can the body of Gundam grow.
This behemoth still ignored those little bugs, it was like an elephant eating grass.
After those mosquitoes pounce on it, it just flicks its tail and continues to eat grass. Unless the mosquitoes bite it and make it irritated, it will jump into the water or jump into the muddy pond to clean it up.
And now it's just quietly eating those corpses.
According to Manggu's observation, this big ship monster can eat hundreds of corpses every hour.
Twenty thousand, that is, 200 hours.
Of course it will also rest.
It doesn't eat all the time, so it won't leave the city within a month.
A few days later, the catapult was finally ready.
Approximately 120 catapults were built.
Of course, Manggu's time was not in vain.
He already felt that he had too few people to guide him.
He has ordered more manpower to be sent over.
He ordered his direct troops to send another 2,000 cavalry.
Because only the cavalry could arrive quickly, another 8,000 infantry and 30,000 young men were ordered to arrive slowly with their baggage.
He felt that this might be a long-term battle, and it was not something he could kill with just a bow and arrow or a slash, as he initially thought.
Of course he didn't know that he actually had this opportunity.
It's just that those frightened evil spirits were lost twice in a row.
But now, if I think about killing him with a few swords, that is obviously impossible.
Moreover, this monster is not afraid, and it has no morale.
If you want to defeat it, you must completely burn the monster before it can be killed.
But now, the catapult has been built and 2,000 cavalry have arrived. Now he has 3,400 elite soldiers in his hands.
These soldiers were enough to defeat the Ming army of 30,000 to 50,000 people.
But now, it is only used to deal with a monster as big as a sea ship.
In fact, Mang Gurtai has realized that morale is declining.
The Jurchens are very superstitious.
The Han people are also very superstitious about wrapping.
Some of them secretly worshiped this monster.
This made Mang Gurtai very angry.
For this reason, he ordered Bai Jia to behead those who worshiped the monster.
Some people are puzzled: "This monster didn't attack us, why do we have to kill it?"
"Yes, it is still on Akito's territory, just let it stay here."
Little did they know that their master's real intention was to defeat the monster and see if it could be tamed.
If you can't tame it, kill it.
Wouldn't it be troublesome if Akito found a way to tame it?
This is what the superior thinks: This is a variable. As long as it exists, it is a variable. I had an advantage before without it. Now that it is added, it will be a lot of trouble. I will get rid of it and restore the previous situation.
After Mang Gurtai killed the people and established his authority, he ordered the soldiers to start loading catapults.
These days, they have collected more flaming objects from nearby cities.
Fire oil, rapeseed oil, and even coal and dry firewood were collected in large quantities.
But the most powerful thing is of course the various fats and oils.
Now everything is ready.
After Mang Gurtai waited for the soldiers to prepare the catapult, he began to order the catapult.
The first batch of fire oil cans were thrown upward.
And some of the poisonous snakes among those big ship monsters seemed to be aware of the great danger.
They started swinging wildly.
More than 20 venomous snakes were most active, knocking out the cans of fire oil one after another.
After being knocked down, the can fell to the ground and shattered. After splashing, there was still a lot of fire oil splashing on the body of the big ship monster.
But after all, they are still a minority.
More fire oil cans fell on the big ship monster.
But its body is so flexible that even if it hits the quilt and sand, the jar is not damaged!
When Mang Gurtai saw this, his face turned ugly.
Fortunately, the can fell to the ground and shattered, forming a small puddle.
And that big ship monster, if it were still a human, should escape immediately.
That kerosene is wasted.
But it didn't escape and was still eating the corpse nearby.
It's like not seeing it.
This reassured Mang Gurtai a lot.
He aims his catapult to shoot all around, not one side.
Try to cover all sides of the big ship monster with kerosene.
However, he soon discovered that on the body of the big ship monster was a thick and flexible green snake covered in mucus.
It is the most cunning and brave among them. It can knock down two or three fire oil tanks every time it attacks.
And it seems to be able to control the venomous snakes around it, at least more than 20 of them, acting in concert with him.
Mang Gurtai was worried that this poisonous snake might also be a war commander.
He has rich battlefield experience, and he can see the leadership ability of that poisonous snake at a glance.
It can only control 20 nearby snakes now, but in the future it may be able to control a large area of venomous snakes.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In this case, the opponent will become stronger and stronger.
Maybe one day, this poisonous snake will be able to control this monster ship.
He thought of a very wrong metaphor. These poisonous snakes are like parasites on Ming Dynasty. When they become stronger, they can replace them.
Could those venomous snakes be like this too?
This gave him a greater sense of urgency regarding his action.
"It is necessary for me to do this, and it is definitely not something out of nothing."
He persuaded himself in this way.
After all, it is also a risk to take more than 3,000 elite Jurchens and Han Banners to fight in one go.
He observed carefully, and as the catapults were thrown, a large oil puddle slowly appeared under the big ship monster.
And it seems to be moving a little faster.
In addition, those poisonous snakes moved quickly, and they began to form a dense forest of guns.
Yes, it's a forest of guns.
And it's swinging up and down.
This kind of gun forest can block some long-range attacks.
The premise is that the gunman's morale cannot drop, and he cannot choose to retreat because many people are injured.
But now these poisonous snakes have no morale.
Thinking of this, Mang Gurtai immediately ordered: "Use a strong bow and heavy arrows to shoot those poisonous snakes! They are the smartest ones."
In fact, he didn't need to say it. His subordinates would also choose the most suitable targets, those poisonous snakes who knocked down their fire oil cans.
Soon, heavy arrows like small shovels were shot out fifty steps away.
Every arrow is very accurate.
One arrow can kill a poisonous snake!
Some cum constantly and will penetrate the other person's body.
After all, flesh and blood, under the control of physical laws, cannot stop steel.
But even though their bodies were filled with arrows, they were still shaking their defenses to block those thrown objects.
Mang Gurtai couldn't help but be shocked.
If the Ming army had such fighting spirit, it would be impossible for them to win.
