"Damn it! What is Zhou Tai doing this week? Why don't you send a building ship over quickly to support him?"
As the day passed, the tired Zangba was full of complaints.
Damn it, the fleet is obviously here, why are you so far away? Are you looking concave? I don’t need you to make a brilliant debut, come here quickly to support me.
You must know that under Guan Yu's frenzied attack regardless of the cost, the defensive supplies in Shouchun City are rapidly decreasing.
Today, there are less than 40,000 soldiers left in Shouchun City, and the supplies are less than half of what they were before.
Zang Ba knew in his heart that if he continued, Shouchun would be defeated by Guan Yu if he could hold on for another three to five days at most.
Now, the reinforcements he had been calling for had finally arrived, but what the hell, Zhou Tai had stopped several miles away for a whole day without participating in the battle.
This made Zang Ba unbearable.
Do you, Zhou Tai, really want to watch Shouchun fall!?
But how could Zang Ba know? Zhou Tai was sweating profusely now and was frantically directing the armor to assemble the crossbow.
"Damn it! Are they all rubbish? How did you install it before? Why can't it be installed just by changing the angle? Ah!? Tell me, why is this?"
Originally, Ren Zhoutai thought that if the ballista was installed before, then he could just disassemble it and reinstall it.
But I never thought that once the angle of this game changed, it would be impossible to fix it!
This made Zhou Tai really embarrassed.
Damn it, I wanted to give that big gift to Guan Yu, but you just told me this?
"General, I have an idea. If it doesn't work, let's try it?"
Seeing Zhou Tai at his wits' end, and seeing the crossbow and ship armor sweating profusely, Jiang Qin was speechless.
Do you think it's pig brain?
He shouldn't be able to change the installation angle, so why the hell won't you change the angle after installation?
"What are you doing? What can you do? Don't fool me!"
Zhou Tai is never polite to his younger brother.
"No way, General, we can let it be installed in its original position, and then we can lift the ship plate under the fixed ballista for him!"
!!!
When Jiang Qin said this, Zhou Tai understood immediately.
Damn it! Why didn’t I think of that!
Now that you know the method, what else is there to say? Just roll up your arms and do it.
Finally, after spending a whole afternoon, the angle of the Chu army's crossbow ship was re-set up.
Nowadays, the Chu army's crossbow gunboats no longer shoot flatly, but projectile like catapults.
In this way, although its accuracy has completely become random, its strike range and distance have been greatly enhanced!
"Wahaha! Jiang Qin! You boy, I have you!
Tell the flag bearer to prepare to pass the order, aim at the Guan Yu camp, and shoot me hard!"
Anyway, it's just a rain of crossbow arrows, so Zhou Tai doesn't require any precise strikes.
As long as the crossbow arrows can be shot, Guan Yu's camp is so densely arranged, why can't he hit each one accurately?
At the same time, Guan Yu, who was in the camp, was also paying attention to Zhou Tai's Chu navy.
"Military advisor, you said that the Chu navy has been here for a day, so why did it just stand still three or four miles away?
Isn't he worried that Shouchun will be conquered by a certain family?"
Regarding Zhou Tai's naval movements, Guan Yu did not dare to be careless for a moment.
But I never thought that Zhou Tai would just bring his fleet here and then set up a formation to watch the fun.
This made Guan Yu puzzled.
"General, I am also puzzled by the Chu army's intentions.
However, Liang believes that since the Chu navy is stationary, the general only needs to do a good job of defense."
Due to the lack of intelligence, Ma Liang also couldn't figure out Zhou Tai's plan.
"Oh my God! What is that!?"
Just when Guan Yu and Ma Liang were guessing Zhou Tai's purpose, a soldier's loud shout suddenly alerted Guan Yu.
Looking up in the direction guided by the armor, Guan Yu only saw dozens of huge black shadows heading straight towards his camp from the sky.
!!!
Originally, Guan Yu was still curious about what this was.
But when the black shadow got closer and closer, Guan Yu finally discovered that this, what the hell, turned out to be a huge crossbow arrow!
"Quick! Dodge! Be careful of the Chu army's crossbows!"
At this moment, Guan Yu only wanted to scold his mother.
Gan Ning, you really tricked Guan!
Didn’t it mean that this game should only be able to shoot horizontally? Didn’t it mean that this game should not be able to hit such a distance?
Damn it? It’s almost three or four miles away, right? It’s such a joke, how can it fly over from such a distance?
You know, in ancient times, one mile was a full five hundred meters, and three or four miles was nearly two thousand meters.
No matter how Guan Yu thought about it, he never expected that the Chu army actually had the ability to strike at ultra-long range.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"ah!"
"Oh my God! I don't want to die! Help me!"
The crossbow arrows falling from the air carried huge inertia and inserted straight into Guan Yu's military formation.
A huge crash sounded, and Guan Yu's camp suddenly fell into chaos.
In this era, soldiers and armor could receive arrows from the air and boulders thrown by catapults from the air.
But this was really the first time I had seen such a huge crossbow arrow coming from the air.
The Jingzhou army was stunned.
There were screams and wails, and the frightened Jingzhou army fell into complete chaos.
"Send the order! The entire army retreats! Retreat!"
This round of crossbow arrows rained down, although the actual losses of the Jingzhou Army were not large, only dozens of unlucky people died under the crossbow arrows.
However, this deterrence is really sufficient.
Knowing that Zhou Tai's navy could carry out ultra-long-range strikes, Guan Yu had no intention of staying here.
Who knows how many crossbow arrows the Chu navy still has in reserve.
If you don't retreat, won't you be a living target here?
This kind of crossbow arrow with huge inertia, not to mention those ordinary soldiers and armors, even Guan Yu had no confidence that he could block it.
Following Guan Yu's order, the panicked Jingzhou army did not care to continue attacking the city, and fled in embarrassment into the distance where the crossbows could not hit.
However, in the chaos, Guan Yu did not notice that Ma Liang, the military advisor who had previously studied the movements of Zhou Tai's navy with him, had been unfortunately nailed directly to this land by a crossbow arrow.
"Shoot! Keep shooting! Shoot hard! See, those Jingzhou troops retreated, which proves that our crossbow arrows must have hit their camp!
Jiang Qin, let the flagman pass the order and tell the ballista ship to move to the shore and shoot me hard!"
At the same time, the excited Zhou Tai only focused on expanding the results, but ignored the danger from the shore.
