Lin Changfeng silently walked to Zhao Tianshu and patted Zhao Tianshu's shoulder gently, "General Zhao, I, Lin Changfeng, am not a serious soldier, but I know that as soldiers, no matter what the conditions are, our bounden duty is to fight with you.
Enemy confrontation, as for the result..."
Lin Changfeng looked up to the sky, "It depends on God's will!",
The two people went up to the wall of the village, and another person and a horse came from the opposite side. When they got to the foot of the wall, they could see clearly that the person coming was the messenger who had delivered the letter the day before. The messenger didn't say much at all. He just bowed and nocked an arrow, and delivered the letter.
Shoot up the wall.
Zhao Tianshu opened the letter, laughed three times after a long time, tore the letter into pieces and threw it down the city, "Does the Dingnan Field Army really think that it is the best in the world? Give us the time to burn the last incense. After the time of one stick of incense,
, attack directly without further notice. Hum hum, okay, come on!"
The time of burning incense passed quickly. When the last spark in the incense burner was extinguished, the sound of an attack horn came from the opposite side on time.
The main camp of the Dingnan Field Army was in a commotion. The bulk of the advance was a phalanx of catapults, followed closely by ladder trucks.
"Hmph, you must be aware that we have few people and dare not go out of the city to fight. We don't even need heavy cavalry." Zhao Tianshu looked at the enemy camp and murmured to himself, "They probably want to use catapults to destroy the wall defenses first.
Then use ladder trucks to attack, break through our defense line, and finally use infantry to advance. No, the catapults of the Dingnan Field Army have the longest range among the Qin Army. They will start throwing soon. Notify the Yuantian Camp.
All take off and destroy the catapults of the Dingnan Field Army!"
There are 500 hot-air balloons under the command of the 7th Army's Tiantian Camp, and those who came with the army accounted for 40% of the total. A total of 200 hot-air balloons received Zhao Tianshu's military order and took off under the command of ground personnel.
, Zhao Tianshu began to feel lucky that he had arranged the preparations for the Tiantian Camp in advance. Otherwise, if he had started to light the fire now, the catapult would have destroyed the wall and they would not have had time to take off.
In rainy weather, the combat effectiveness of hot air balloons was greatly reduced. Even at the beginning, more than ten hot air balloons did not rise at all.
Nearly two hundred hot air balloons were launched into the sky, and the visual effect was more objective. It looked extremely dark. It had been suppressed by the Dingnan Field Army these days.
Hong couldn't help but feel extremely happy in his heart, and there was a burst of warm cheers in the Dingba position.
Weapons such as hot air balloons were only officially put into use during the Battle of Konoha City, but its power has already made everyone in the Dingmai understand how powerful it is. The reason why they dared to use thousands of them this time,
The 80,000-strong army that resisted the Dingnan Field Army was mainly due to the presence of the Jitian Camp and the Jinnu Camp.
"Go forward directly, without hesitation, directly destroy the opponent's catapult phalanx!" The hot air balloon at the front sent a signal, and nearly two hundred hot air balloons followed closely behind, approaching the opponent's catapult phalanx directly.
In such a scene, even the Dingnan Field Army, which came to provoke, felt a bit of pressure. Although they had observed this kind of weapon and even tried it, they had never personally experienced the true power of a hot air balloon, and they couldn't help but feel a little bit.
Feel weak.
Seeing that the horizontal distance between the hot air balloon and the catapult phalanx of the Dingnan Field Army was only more than 40 feet away, at this moment, as if by magic, countless soldiers worked together to drag the catapult phalanx on the gray-brown soil in front of it.
The canvas on the ground revealed the trenches dug in advance by the Dingnan Field Army.
Inside the trench, there were densely packed rows of catapults. There were more than a hundred catapults in the three-sword trench.
Zhao Tianshu's eyes widened, "I just said that the spies sent out always reported that they had been digging soil at night. I thought they wanted to dig tunnels and sneak into our rear, but I didn't expect that they actually deployed so many catapults in front of the formation. They
What do you want to do!"
The Dingnan Field Military Operation told Zhao Tianshu, "What do they want to do?" More than a hundred catapults launched a salvo. Each catapult threw ten pieces weighing dozens of kilograms into the air and smashed them into the sky.
hot air balloon.
"These bastards have even calculated the range. They have been prepared for a long time!" Zhao Tianshu waved his fist and punched the wall of the village.
Countless giant rocks flew towards the Zuitian Camp. Although the Zuitian Camp was equipped with a wind magic circle, which was enough to defend against the bows and arrows of the Jinnu Camp, huge rocks of this level could no longer be resisted by the wind magic circle.
Even the wind magic circle is not omnipotent.
The first hot air balloon was hit by a flying boulder, and the basket under the flying ball shook violently. A soldier lost his grip and fell straight from the air. It seemed that he could not be saved.
Fortunately, the wind array on the hot air balloon helped withstand more than half of the impact. The boulder did not directly damage the hot air balloon. After shaking a few times, it did not fall down.
However, other hot air balloons were not so lucky. More than five hot air balloons were hit by boulders directly through the leather sphere, and staggered down. Some were even more unlucky, with boulders thrown directly into the air and hanging underneath.
In the basket, the soldiers inside were directly turned into pulp, and then the entire balloon that lost power also fell to the ground. The baskets of some hot air balloons were smashed through, and the soldiers fell from the holes at the bottom, far away
From a distance, it looked like hail falling, but Zhao Tianshu and Lin Changfeng knew that those falling black spots were not hail, but the irreparable life of a soldier.
After the first round of salvos, the Zuitian camp lost nearly twenty hot air balloons. However, the hot air balloons still issued the command to continue moving forward. There was no need to retreat. As long as they could reach the top of the opponent's catapult phalanx, they would bombard them indiscriminately.
After a bombing, the Dingnan Field Army will pay the price for their actions.
However, the second round of volleys came soon. The rate of fire of the trebuchets obviously exceeded the speed of the hot air balloon. After the second round of volleys, the hit rate of the catapults with adjusted ranges increased significantly. More than 30 hot air balloons were fired.
Hit by bullets, more than half of it crashed.
"Come back! Let them retreat!" Zhao Tianshu suddenly shouted loudly. He knew that there is no way to retreat on the battlefield, but this is the Jiantian Camp, which is the Seventh Army's biggest capital, and he cannot afford to lose.
The soldiers on the wall sent out smoke and signals to retreat, and the hot-air balloon began to adjust its course. However, the heavy rain caused the sensitivity of the hot-air balloon to drop sharply. Before the Yutian camp could turn around, the third salvo came. After the salvo,
