Hua Mulan looked around and suddenly frowned slightly: "Stop the whole army!"
The soldiers lined up neatly behind him stopped, and Gongsun Li on the side suddenly spoke: "What's wrong? Isn't it still some distance from Zeyang City?"
"No, I have an ominous premonition." Hua Mulan said directly. The sharp intuition that she had been on the battlefield for many years had not been wasted much by living in Bai Chu's world, let alone that Hua Mulan was a policeman in that world.
Yes.
Gongsun Li nodded slightly, and after a while, she said, "Let me go up and take a look."
"Go up?" Hua Mulan was stunned for a moment.
"Yeah." Gongsun Li smiled slightly, and then he threw the umbrella in his hand high, and it opened suddenly. Then Gongsun Li's slender legs jumped lightly, stepped on the umbrella, and floated into the sky.
After a while, Gongsun Li held his umbrella and slowly floated down, and then said: "There doesn't seem to be anything strange around."
"Is it really my illusion?" Hua Mulan frowned slightly. In fact, she believed in her intuition very much. This intuition had saved her life several times. However, since Gongsun Li said so, Hua Mulan didn't say anything more.
He nodded: "Keep going!"
More than ten kilometers away to the side, many people wearing straw clothes squatted down, with a cold light in their eyes...
After hearing that Zeyang City would be attacked, many residents ran to Zeyang City from the surrounding small villages to take refuge. Soon after, the entire city was closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will.
On the city wall, there were thousands of soldiers standing, waiting in full formation, looking into the distance.
Wherever he looked, there was desolation, with occasional dead trees and streams of water, but none of them diverted his attention.
In the wilderness and the Gobi, everything is so calm, as calm as a storm. The calmer it is, the more violent the storm will be.
"Here we come." I don't know which soldier spoke, and dense black spots appeared in the distance.
The dust is flying and the iron horse is crashing.
The army in the distance showed its true appearance.
Black shield, bow and arrow, cavalry, siege cannon!
"Everyone, get ready!" the soldiers of Zeyang City shouted: "We will defend Zeyang to the death and protect the safety of the people!"
"Yes!" A thunderous roar rang out, and the friction of the sword and the scabbard was like a string of neat bells. Their eyes were fixed on the distance.
On the other side, looking at the city in the distance, Hua Mulan smiled slightly: "Adjutant, bring sister's Italian cannon over here!"
"Yes!" the soldier responded and gave the order. Rows of artillery suddenly appeared in the front row. These are highly destructive weapons modified by Bai Chu, but their range is limited, so they have to get closer to use them.
"Guard the siege cannon, let's move forward!" Hua Mulan shouted.
"yes!"
The soldiers in the front row held up their shields and escorted the artillery forward slowly. At this time, Zeyang City erupted with a dense rain of arrows, with lightning speed, supplemented by the sound of piercing the air, and kept heading towards Hua
Mulan's soldiers poured out.
"Raise your shield!"
The shield was raised high and began to resist the rain of arrows. The clanking arrows and the knocking sound of the shield were like heavy rain beating on the windows. Without the shield, it is unimaginable what the consequences would be.
Because they were fully prepared, the army was still advancing neatly and vigorously.
The second round of arrow rain arrives. Continue to resist their advance.
"Forward!" Hua Mulan held her heavy sword in front of her. The horse under her had already been pierced through the head by an arrow, so she could only walk.
The same was true for Gongsun Li. She held an umbrella and still walked forward gracefully.
Finally, they arrived not far outside the city.
Seeing that the rain of arrows could not stop them, the Zeyang City soldiers chose to fire cannons.
"Boom boom!"
"Boom boom!"
Continuous explosions sounded like drums, mushroom clouds rose, and many soldiers were blown away by the gunfire. The terrifying power caused stumps to fly all over the sky!
"Sister, you don't have cannons, right? Fire the cannons, fire the cannons!" Hua Mulan said, and the soldiers next to her immediately started firing cannons.
"Boom boom boom!"
The artillery fire began to exchange, and the soldiers of Zeyang City suddenly discovered that the artillery on the opposite side was a little abnormal. Generally speaking, the artillery had to be refilled after firing one shot, but the other side did not, and instead fired continuously. Seeing this scene, Ze Yang
The soldiers in Yangcheng all showed shocked expressions:
"What the hell is the artillery on the opposite side? Why can it fire continuously!"
"What's this?!"
The artillery exploded on the city wall. Every time it exploded, the soldiers guarding the city fell down due to the terrifying impact, but they were quickly filled by other soldiers.
In the face of such terrifying artillery, Zeyang's casualties skyrocketed. When he saw that he was almost ready to demolish the city gate, suddenly, a roar came from the side.
"Huh?" Hua Mulan was slightly startled, but because there were too many soldiers, she didn't know what was going on.
"General, an army is attacking from the rear!" A soldier reported: "We are being flanked!"
At this time, the gates of Zeyang City also opened, and a steady stream of soldiers rushed out like a tide. They shouted, brought their own weapons, and fought to protect the peace of one side.
Facing the attack from both front and back, Hua Mulan let out a cry and narrowed her eyes: "It's a good attack from both sides, but do you really think you can do anything to Sister He?"
"A stable horse." A man wearing a bamboo hat rushed forward with a musket, blooming blood flowers one after another on the bodies of the Wu soldiers, and some were directly blasted with holes by the terrifying artillery.
Seeing this scene, the Wu soldiers' eyes turned red and their muscles bulged as they rushed towards him.
"Friendliness brings wealth~" The man in the hat said with a smile: "Don't be so angry."
At this moment, an orange maple leaf flew over like a dart. When the man in the hat saw it, he immediately picked up his cannon and blocked it. There was a "ding" sound, and the maple leaf left a light mark on the cannon.
"who is it?"
"Maple leaves are the most affectionate..." A figure appeared in front of him, holding a paper umbrella. She was as beautiful as a fairy.
"My name is Gongsun Li." Gongsun Li smiled slightly and held out a maple leaf in his hand: "Excuse me, what is your name?"
"I didn't expect that there was a beautiful woman in Wu Di's army." The man in the bamboo hat laughed, and pressed his own hat: "Everyone said that those who cheated have to pay back. If you do this, you will always pay the price. I
It’s Liu Bei.”
"Liu Bei?" Gongsun Li smiled slightly after hearing the name: "It turns out to be the famous Liu Bei. If I capture you, Xiao Chu will be very happy."
"Xiaochu, the Xiaochu you are talking about is not King Wu Baichu, right? It's not easy to catch me back, beauty." Liu Bei laughed loudly.
