The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 119

[Chapter 118 The first clues]

Of course, there are not people without resistance. Just like Patriarch Jones, he brought a group of people with fighting qi in the clan to release the fighting qi in their bodies, and shot those arrows flying through the gorgeous fighting qi one by one. To keep some soldiers around and boost morale.

Among them, the most powerful is Patriarch Jones, who has reached the third rank, and his vindictive energy is directly released, forming a light curtain, isolating all the arrows ten meters away, and the arrows are shot on this light curtain. Bounce away, and can no longer enter a step.

And knowing that the range of the light curtain is more than 20 meters, he fully guarded the hundreds of soldiers beside him. At the same time, there were more soldiers who saw that there was a safe place here, and they rushed over desperately. , shoving crowded.

As for the other barbarians with Dou Qi, although their strength is relatively strong, it’s just that they can’t show their Dou Qi outside, they can only use their own skills that have been blessed by Dou Qi, but they can also protect the surrounding area of several meters. space.

There are also two or three of his soldiers who can gather around and get a certain degree of protection, but more people will not be able to do it. Instead, it will affect their mobility and make everyone unable to get help.

But what is the use of this, it is not without any use to the situation of the entire battlefield.

Jones gathered over the entire city wall, more than 30 owners of vindictiveness, but only the soldiers who protected him with no more than 200 people.

The others either kept howling and screaming under the rain of arrows, slowly watching their blood drain, and lost their lives after being tortured.

Or hide under the corner of the wall, the arrow of prayer will not fall here, and the whole body is trembling.

He kept muttering in his mouth, hoping that his ancestors would bless him to survive successfully.

But the entire city wall is so big, and the protective measures are not as complete as those built by the regular forces. How many places can be used to hide for them!

Using this method, only a few dozen people survived.

Under 10,000 shots in turn ten times, a full 100,000 arrow feathers poured directly onto the entire city wall.

100,000 arrow feathers, what is the concept?

Just like the very famous borrowing arrows on a grass boat in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Zhou Yu used a strategy to force Zhuge Liang to make 100,000 arrow feathers in ten days, but others thought it was too harsh, and it was impossible to make them in such a short time.

You must know that this is the entire Eastern Wu, the military supplies of tens of thousands of troops, how can it be created in an instant!

The 100,000 arrows could be used for a long time at that time.

At least it was enough to support Zhou Yu to finish a battle of Chibi.

Now, someone else can shoot arrows that have been used for a long time at will in this short moment, as if they don’t need money, how can they not shock the enemy, their hearts and livers are broken, and their whole body trembles!

I don’t know anything else, but in this short moment, the entire city wall is like a hedgehog that has been stimulated, opening its thorns one after another, like a cactus, there are dense needlepoints everywhere.

Therefore, it has developed to the ultimate bow and crossbow craftsmanship, and it is still in the age of firearms with flintlock muskets in terms of power.

Both in terms of range and rate of fire, it has certain advantages.

At least, in terms of the rate of fire, the crossbow also has the existence of a kind of cheating.

The range of the bow and crossbow can be up to 300 meters to 500 meters, while the flintlock musket can only reach 100 meters. If you want to traverse this maximum range and enter the flintlock pistol, you can exert its power. Not an easy task.

After ten rounds of arrow rain, only less than 300 people could stand on the city wall.

Moreover, most of them were also slightly injured, and those who possessed a grudge were also out of breath.

Obviously, holding on for such a long time has caused their internal vindictive qi to be rapidly consumed, and their physical strength will soon be exhausted.

The only one who looked better was Jones, but his face was also flushed red, he just held on and didn’t show it.

One person has protected him more than 100 people, and his fighting spirit has been released ten meters, and the range has expanded to twenty meters. He is not one of those fourth-order powerhouses, but only a mere third-order, and has not yet produced a qualitative transformation.

Naturally, it is impossible to achieve unlimited consumption, and the vindictive energy cannot be freely released. It is already very good to be able to persist until the arrow rain on your side stops!

Seeing that there were still people standing above the city wall, Cao Cao frowned, as expected, it was something that His Majesty the Emperor had told him in every possible way before he set out on the expedition.

These barbarians with extraordinary strength and fighting spirit are really tricky.

Under this circumstance, it is still possible to hold on to the rain of arrows for so long.

Although the main reason is that they only need to defend a small part of the position with the help of the geographical advantage, but that is also very incredible, and it is worthy of their own admiration.

It seems that I have to give them some more material, beat them, and completely disintegrate their will to fight.

So Kaesong surrendered and reduced his troubles and losses.

Although at the beginning I said I didn’t care about the losses of those soldiers, but in the end I can reduce some losses,

Still to do.

After all, these are soldiers that His Majesty the Emperor used to exchange for an unknown amount of resources!

How can it be wasted at will?

Therefore, Cao Cao ordered his subordinates to launch its catapult with a height of more than ten meters. After the army began to deploy and there was just a rain of arrows, the dismantled catapult had been assembled and could be ready to attack at any time.

With a creaking sound, the heavy catapult was pushed forward with great difficulty by the soldiers.

It slowly approached 1,000 meters away from the city wall, which is the maximum distance that the catapult can reach after the improvement.

Cao Cao didn’t dare to push the catapults too close, lest those with extraordinary power on the city wall jump off the wall, and directly open the city gate to give himself a sharp attack, destroy these catapults, and if you want to recreate them, you can do it. Very troublesome.

The catapult stopped slowly, and the soldiers were slowly correcting and adjusting, preparing for the catapult, so that the barbarians could be given the most beautiful appetizer in the next attack.

Jones watched the rain of arrows stop, and those who shot the arrows also retreated, and his heart was relieved, and the hanging heart slowly let go, and finally he could breathe a sigh of relief.

Just now, in order to protect the precious warriors of his tribe, he tried his best to release his vindictiveness with the power of sucking milk, and he was already very tired from supporting him. .

Fortunately, he stopped, and his life was saved. As for why he didn’t give up those soldiers?

Hide by yourself or run for your life.

That’s because he deeply understands that now that he can have such a status, in addition to his third-order strength, which is of great help, more of these loyal and brave warriors under his command, the powerful tribes will step by step. Pushed himself to his present position.

So how could he give up these, give up his position and live the life of those ordinary powerhouses!

Even if you go to other tribes to seek refuge, you can also get very good treatment.

But there is a big difference between being the boss by yourself and being a younger brother who is not in your own hands for someone else, presumably everyone knows how to choose!
