The black flag troops went out in all directions, running around on the city wall with their horses, looking for the birds in the sky that released arrows.
"Your Majesty, there is something in the sky in the northwest direction of Longya Mountain."
Ma Ping discovered the black spot in the northwest sky.
Everyone looked to the northwest and saw a big guy with wings standing in the sky not far from the top of Longya Mountain.
Hello everyone, the two wings above are fluttering non-stop, very fast. Under the house, which is about the size of a room, there are densely packed arrows flashing with cold light. Arrows are constantly shooting out from under the big guy, falling and running away in all directions.
Among the Qin army's scouts.
Su Lu was confused. Damn it, is this a plane? An airship? Or something flying?
Body made of wood, white cloth...
It was too far away to see clearly what made the wings, but it was too fantasy.
Since coming to this world, Su Lu finally encountered something that could subvert his three views. Now people's scientific and technological level can soar into the sky.
"Let's go over and have a look."
Su Lu said.
A group of generals surrounded Su Lu in an instant. There were so many arrows that would kill or damage him. Su Lu, the Qin Kingdom's sea-fixing needle, could never take risks.
Xiang Chong had a determined look on his face: "Your Majesty, whatever you want to see, I will go and see it later."
Cao Bao also stopped Su Lu: "Your Majesty, no, this big bird carries too many arrows. If you go, you will definitely not be able to take advantage of it. If something goes wrong, we will be doomed."
As a close minister of Emperor Qin, Cao Bao knew how much Emperor Qin valued Su Lu. In order to keep Su Lu, it can be said that the people around Su Lu were all moved to heaven because of Su Lu alone. If he had any shortcomings, then he would pay them back.
have to.
Zhao Shuo also said: "Your Majesty, we don't need to pay attention to this big bird, he is very slow, we only need to strangle the barbarians."
Su Lu shook his head.
"I'm afraid this won't work. The barbarians brought this kind of thing, obviously to cooperate with the infantry to attack the city. If we don't move, we are afraid that we will follow their wishes. When the barbarians come to the city, we will completely stop."
Several people immediately thought of the scene. The big bird flew over the city, shot countless arrows, and swept away the soldiers on the city. The barbarians who rushed to the city easily occupied the city wall.
There was silence at the top of the city, and everyone thought of the tragic situation when the city was breached.
Su Lu kept watching the big bird, wanting to see how fast it was, how high it could fly, how many arrows it could shoot at once, and how long the interval between two shots was.
Cao Bao's voice sounded: "My lord, you are the martial arts star in the sky and the God of War on earth. You must have a way to deal with this thing."
Su Luxindao naturally relies on anti-aircraft guns to deal with aircraft. Now we don't even have machine guns, we have woolen anti-aircraft guns.
His eyes unconsciously glanced at the crossbow bed on the city wall, and Su Lu had an idea. It seemed that this thing could be used as a machine gun.
Asked Xiang Chong next to him: "How big is the largest crossbow bed among the barbarian weapons we captured?"
Xiang Chong looked around, reached out and took a long spear from the hand of the border soldier standing at the top of the city, and weighed it.
"The arrows fired are about the same thickness and length as this gun, and they can shoot far, thousands of steps."
Su Lu nodded, in this case, there is still some fun.
But when it comes to choosing a reliable shooting location, the top of the city is definitely not enough. Once you reach the top of the city, the big bird will definitely raise its height, and the ballista may not be within range.
You must choose a place where the big bird must pass, set up an ambush at a high enough place, and kill the big bird in one fell swoop.
"Come here, find some crossbowmen who are good at shooting, and order them to shoot birds with their crossbows. They must practice until they can shoot down birds with their crossbows."
"Scout out everywhere. Don't confront these big birds or the barbarians. Record the marching route of this big bird, especially the mountains and slopes it passes through. It's all recorded clearly."
Su Lu ordered.
The generals and generals received the orders and quickly carried them out. Only Su Lu and Cao Bao were left on top of the city.
Cao Bao asked Su Lu: "My lord, you just issued those military orders, weren't you trying to knock down these big birds?"
Su Lu pointed at the injured scouts under the city, "Why not? Since the barbarians dare to attack my people, can't I attack his people?"
"Besides, there might be supporters behind the barbarians. I want to see what ethnic group gave the barbarians such great support and provided such sophisticated weapons."
Cao Bao looked surprised: "We, can we kill this big bird?"
Su Lu squinted his eyes to look at the big bird in the west, and said in a calm tone: "If Eunuch Cao is interested, I will take you to witness a ground air defense battle."
Cao Bao is confused. He understands the ground. He also understands the meaning of battles. He also understands defense and air defense. However, in the first combination, he is blind. What does this mean?
But it sounded high-quality, and it was the prince who invited me to stay, and he didn’t want to see it in vain. After reading it, he could talk to his majesty when he went back, making his majesty happy.
Twelve days later, the barbarian army regrouped and came to Longya Mountain and Tushanzi again. They set up two camps in the two places, making a posture of attacking western Liaoning at any time.
The barbarian scouts went around, cooperating with the big birds in the sky to search for the Qin army's scouts, and almost wiped out all the Qin army's scouts, leaving the Qin army completely deaf and blind.
At the Governor's Mansion in Western Liaoning, Zhao Shuo presided over a military meeting.
Su Lu pointed to the defense map and talked about the barbarians' intentions.
"The number of barbarians coming this time is much smaller than last time. The one I'm worried about is the big bird in the sky."
"With the intelligence these days, the flight route of the Big Bird has been basically determined. Everyone, I will organize a ground air defense battle in the near future to completely destroy the barbarian Big Bird."
"This is Huzuizi Mountain. There is a high cliff on the mountain, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The big bird landed here twice to repair. I intend to set up an ambush here, transport the crossbow bed on four platforms, and kill the barbarian big bird in one fell swoop.
"
Zhao Shuo frowned: "My lord, if you are not here, who will be in charge of the battle at the top of the city?"
Su Lu shook his head: "If I can capture the big bird on the top of the mountain, do you think the barbarians will attack this western Liaoning?"
"If my guess is correct, once I shoot down the barbarian birds, the barbarian army will immediately turn around and rush straight to Huzuizi Mountain, and will not attack Liaoxi again. As long as I can defend Huzuizi Mountain, I can survive."
Cao Bao, who was present, looked eager to try:
"Okay, a certain family will lead the imperial guards and the black flag army to accompany the prince to Huzuizi Mountain. Together with the prince, they will shoot down the barbarians' flying birds and destroy the barbarians' attacks on the mountain."
The two bosses have spoken, and the generals no longer have the right to refute. The few thoughtful ones can only think about what kind of bed crossbows they should bring with them, and how they should bring more crossbow arrows to face the barbarian attack later.
How many arrows can be blocked?
Su Lu gave instructions: "Tomorrow the barbarians will attack the city. Tonight, we will transport the crossbows up the mountain. Everyone must be in place before dawn tomorrow."
After Su Lu finished speaking, he stood up and looked at the generals: "We must also prepare defenses at the top of the city. When I am not here, Xiang Chong will lead the army and Zhao Shuo will be in charge. We must block the barbarians and hold on until I capture the big bird and don't want me there."
If the city was not defeated by the barbarians, but the city was destroyed, that would be bad."
