Chapter 1,336 The sound of explosion is a reminder of death
Of course, the explosion not only startled the soldiers in the Sun-Cao coalition—
As usual, Zhuge Liang boarded the city gate tower. He planned to take a long view and express his annoyance, but he didn't expect... A sudden violent explosion came from the enemy camp, which made everyone present start to panic.
A tremor.
Zhuge Liang thought it was thunder in the sky, but when he looked up, there was no lightning in the cloudy sky from beginning to end.
"Fa...what happened?"
Pang Tong hurried over after hearing the news. As soon as he climbed up the city tower, he saw the soldiers all over the city wall lying on the ground. It was not that they were frightened by the thunder. To be honest, as a person who had experienced the bomb baptism of Sun Cao's coalition forces before,
For those who have experienced it, it is difficult not to be sensitive to this kind of popping sound.
Zhuge Liang cast a doubtful look at Pang Tong. The two looked at each other and immediately understood...the explosion this time did not really come from in front of the city gate.
That means...
The two of them walked to the city wall in unison and looked at the camp of Sun and Cao's coalition forces in the distance. Sure enough, they discovered the source of the explosion.
"Did it come from Yi Xiaotian and his army?"
"I'm afraid so..."
Pang Tong's expression became slightly more solemn. He pointed at a wisp of smoke in the distance. Although it was difficult to see clearly what happened when standing on top of the city wall, but...if I guessed correctly, this kind of noise could only be caused by a bomb.
.
And the profound meaning contained in the explosion coming from the rain curtain is somewhat thought-provoking——
Zhuge Liang also saw the wisp of dust and smoke, and his words were full of disbelief:
"This...how is this possible?
Doesn't it mean that the bomb cannot be used if it gets wet?
Was it an accident?"
"It shouldn't be an accident..."
Pang Tong shook his head, and based on the enemy's extremely calm movements these days, he speculated that the opponent was either waiting for support - judging from the current strength of both sides, if they did not borrow external force... whether it was bombs or reinforcements, the opponent would not
It is possible to break through the gates of Wancheng in a short time, Pang Tong is sure of this.
But...does Cao Cao or Sun Quan really have surplus troops to support the Jiangdong battlefield?
So if the enemy is not waiting for reinforcements, they can only seek a breakthrough in another aspect.
This is the so-called "bomb".
"It's impossible for Yi Xiaotian to sit still and wait for death, and he has not made any unnecessary movements in these days. In addition, the intelligence sent by the scouts two days ago said that the enemy sent an army with no intention of attacking the city.
Heading to the northwest of us, they brought back a considerable amount of strange stones..."
"He should be improving the waterproofness of weapons like bombs... Unfortunately... we still haven't figured out how to make the bomb, and we don't know what kind of progress Yi Xiaotian has made..."
"And today...if my guess is correct, I'm afraid Yi Xiaotian has succeeded...after all...he is Yi Xiaotian..."
Pang Tong explained his guess.
"Then doesn't this mean that it won't be long before they come to attack the city again?"
Zhuge Liang suddenly felt mixed emotions in his heart... In the end, did their race against time end with Yi Xiaotian's victory?
When Yi Xiaotian was developing a new type of bomb, they were actually nervously waiting for the arrival of reinforcements. But after so many days, no news of reinforcements came, let alone reinforcements, and the situation continued to deepen.
The frustrated mood of the soldiers in Wancheng.
And the explosion just now was like a reminder, sounding the death knell for everyone.
"There is no other way... Let's talk to my lord about this first... No matter how many weapons are invented, they cannot be used immediately. Besides... as far as I know, there is no bomb like Yi Xiaotian in the world that can
The helpers who helped him make it together, that is to say, although they have succeeded, we still have time to consolidate the city defense——"
"The only uncertainty now is whether the rainy weather will still have an impact on the bomb. We can only assume that they have overcome this difficulty..."
"That's right... Let's go see the lord first. The materials accumulated in the city these days are enough for us to upgrade the city defense."
Zhuge Liang also nodded and agreed with Pang Tong's statement. With Pang Tong here, Zhuge Liang did not seem to feel completely desperate compared to previous desperate situations. This can be regarded as a blessing among misfortunes.
——
Shortly after the explosion, the Sun-Cao coalition camp outside Wancheng experienced a concentrated emotional outburst.
The waterproof bomb called the grenade was successfully developed, and the news quickly spread to everyone's ears.
For a time, everyone in the army was discussing the grenade, including Zhang Liao, Lu Xun, Pan Zhang, Zhou Tai and other generals.
They are the group of people who are most concerned about Yi Xiaotian's development of new weapons. After all... facing the city defense of Anhui, the previous helpless situation really made these men who had always been invincible on the battlefield feel a little unbalanced.
Of course, what they didn't know was that a long time ago, Cao Jun's generals were eagerly waiting for Yi Xiaotian's clever plan to save them.
At this point, there won't be much difference between everyone.
Sun Quan's accidental injury certainly made some people sweat, but there were doctors accompanying him in the army, including Yi Xiaotian who was also an herbal expert. After everyone took care of him, Sun Quan had already woken up leisurely - because it was just a skin injury, so
Apart from the constant pain in his body, there is no need to worry about Sun Quan's life.
But Sun Quan has really changed a lot. If he goes by the past, the first thing he will do when he wakes up is to murmur what Datong complained about Yi Xiaotian. But this time, he just woke up and after seeing Yi Xiaotian
Then he asked excitedly:
"Grenade! That's it, right?"
Yi Xiaotian was startled by Sun Quan who suddenly woke up, but after calming down and seeing Sun Quan's expectant eyes, he couldn't help but smile and nodded:
"Thanks to you, the grenade must have been successful."
"Very good...very good!"
After hearing the news, Sun Quan, who was still a little dazed, was stunned for a moment, and then he clapped his hands happily, like a child who had not grown up.
"Ouch! It hurts...it hurts me so much..."
"...General, you are still injured now. Don't get too excited. It will be difficult to deal with it if the injury recurs."
The result may be that he was too excited. Sun Quan clapped his hands and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back. The pain made him immediately fall back on the bed and groan.
This scene made the doctor look sad, and he quickly stepped forward to check on Sun Quan's condition.
