Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

After discovering the method of throwing Zhentianlei into the city with a trebuchet, Zhao Jun's craftsmen seemed to have discovered the New World at once.

These days, the craftsmen of Zhao Jun have developed another weapon called kerosene bomb. The jar of this kind of thing is filled with a black thing called fierce kerosene. When it comes into contact with fire, it will burn violently.

Before that, fierce fire oil was mainly used by Zhao Jun as one of the ignition items for rockets, but now, Zhao Jun has found a new way to use it.

Although the fierce fire oil cannot blow up the city wall, it can cause a lot of damage to the soldiers of the Qi army on the city wall just like the projected thunder.

It is precisely because of this that although Zhao Jun's offensive against Gaowan City is still not going so smoothly these days, Li Mu can feel that the combat effectiveness of the Qi Army in the city is also being rapidly reduced. It's not too far away.

"It's been almost four months." Li Mu looked up at the sun above his head, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.

It was still spring when the city was just surrounded, but now summer is almost completely over.

Siege is really a very, very time-wasting thing.

"It would be great if one day in the future we can directly use the Thunderbolt to knock down these city walls." Li Mu thought to himself.

Li Mu had a very strong premonition that his wish would come true sooner or later.

But in Gaowan City, it is another scene.

The chief general of the Qi army, Zhou Fen, Prime Minister of the Qi State, was sitting in the room with an extremely tired expression on his face.

Opposite him was Kuang Liang who had already recovered from his injuries. Kuang Liang seemed to have just been withdrawn from the battlefield. His face was blackened several times, and his body still smelled of gunpowder smoke.

"How's the battle going today?" Zhou Fen asked.

As soon as the words came out, Zhou Fen suddenly felt a little terrified, because he found that his voice had become extremely hoarse at some point, almost so low that it was hard to hear.

Kuang Liang shrugged his shoulders, with a somewhat helpless wry smile on his face: "Zhou Qing, Zhao people's thunder and kerosene bombs are really powerful. Now our army's morale has suffered a serious setback. All the soldiers regard the defense of the city as fearful. If this continues, the situation will be very bad for us."

Zhou Fen slapped the table and said angrily: "These timid and fearful things! The thunder and fierce fire oil are not unlimited. Could it be that the Zhao people launch dozens of them every day, scaring their guts out? ?”

Although Zhou Fen didn't know exactly how many thunderbolts and kerosene bombs there were in the Zhao people's camp, Zhou Fen knew one thing very well, that is, Zhao people's thunderbolts and kerosene bombs were limited, otherwise If so, Zhao Guo would have launched an indiscriminate attack on the top of Gaowan City long ago.

Since it is not infinite, there is nothing to fear.

Kuang Liang smiled wryly, and said, "Zhou Qing, even though that's the case, the power of the thunder that exploded was too terrifying. Many soldiers in the army still think that it was a divine punishment from the God of Taiyi. After the thunder blasted, he was trembling with trepidation, without even a trace of fighting power. In addition, Zhao Jun's kerosene bombs were even more vicious. Once attached to the body, they would burn people into black charcoal and make people die without a whole body , it made all the soldiers terrified.”

Zhou Fen snorted and said angrily, "It's all just excuses! Since we are officials of the Qi State, it is our duty to die for our country at this time of national calamity! The war situation has declined so much!"

Kuang Liang shrank his head and stopped talking.

After working with Zhou Fen for such a period of time, Kuang Liang actually knew what was wrong with Zhou Fen.

Zhou Fen is good at everything, but because he has not personally experienced a few wars, when thinking about things, he is somewhat too idealistic.

Kuang Liang had no doubts about Zhou Fen's loyalty to King Qi and the State of Qi, nor did he doubt that Zhou Fen would die generously for the State of Qi if it really came to the last moment.

But the problem is that Zhou Fen's awareness is high, and you can't ask others to have the same awareness as you.

As we all know, Qi State has always been a country with relatively developed commerce. As early as when Taigong Lu Shang established Qi State, Qi State relied on commerce to make a fortune. business war.

This makes Qi people's brains relatively more active than those of other countries.

As we all know, people with more active brains will be more careful about their lives in war.

Although at the beginning, the tragic prospect of national ruin and family destruction stimulated the soldiers of Qi State to make a big splash, but after the defense of the city for the past few months, that passion has almost been wiped out.

Until now, the people of the state of Zhao have come up with such things as thunder and kerosene bombs, so that the soldiers of the state of Qi can only be beaten but have no power to fight back.

Just think about it, a soldier from the State of Qi, after a night of recharging his energy, wearing leather armor, holding a sword and carrying a longbow, Xiong Jiujiao strode up to the top of the city in high spirits, preparing to teach the enemies of the Zhao army outside the city some unforgettable lessons.

Just when he had just set foot on the top of the city, a thunderbolt flew towards him.

boom!

Soldiers die, no bones left.

That's not even the worst result.

The worse result was that when the soldier stepped on the top of the city and looked up, he found that it was a kerosene bomb flying towards him.

The next moment, this soldier will turn into a burning man, he will roll on the ground in a rage, let out a shrill cry of pain, and finally become unrecognizable under the witness of those nearby colleagues who survived the disaster, and he is extremely painful die.

Witnessing the death of one of his colleagues one after another in such an extremely painful way, the impact on people is very powerful.

What makes the soldiers of the Qi army even more depressed is that the Qi army can't think of any way to stop these two weapons of the Zhao people, which leads to the fact that the soldiers of the Qi army will spend many lives in vain every day.

Everyone is desperately trying to survive death, but if this continues, they can only die in vain.

When the soldiers of the Qi State had no other way out but death, the morale of the Qi army could be imagined.

Kuang Liang hesitated for a moment, checked that there was no one else in the room, and finally gave up his mind, and said directly: "Zhou Qing, if this continues, I'm afraid we will only be defeated!"

Don't look like a lieutenant general, but Kuang Liang is actually the most military-savvy leader in this army, and Kuang Liang has always been responsible for the specific implementation of various combat measures.

So Kuang Liang felt that it was necessary for him to remind Zhou Fen of this fact, otherwise, when he really lost in the future, Kuang Liang would definitely not be able to get away with the big scapegoat.

Zhou Fen snorted, took a deep look at Kuang Liang, and said, "General Kuang Liang, the war has not yet reached its final moment, how can you say defeat lightly? You must know that we shoulder the last hope of Da Qi, and it is no matter what. It is impossible to give up!"

Kuang Liang sighed and walked out of the room.

A muffled thunder suddenly sounded above Kuang Liang's head, and Kuang Liang subconsciously looked up at the sky, only to realize that the sky above his head was already cloudy.

"Could it be that it's going to rain?" Kuang Liang froze for a moment, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

For the Qi army in Gaowan City, this is really a timely rain!

Push the book, "Da Jin Dazai"

Chapter 932 He Hua, who urgently needs to rectify his name (third update)

"Is it raining?" Li Mu looked at the sky and frowned involuntarily.

This rain was not a good thing for Zhao Jun who was attacking the city.

The offensive that has just started to improve is likely to be delayed because of the rain.

Li Mu's premonition was not wrong at all. The rain lasted for several days at a time, and the torrential rain covered the entire battlefield, temporarily calming down the battlefield that had been fiercely fought for several months.

It was another day, and in the pouring rain, more than a dozen figures were struggling to move forward in the rain.

Hundred General He Hua struggled to pull one of his feet out of the muddy ground, and cursed angrily: "Bah, this damn rain is really heavy! Hey, when Lu you said Say, come out at this time and really have a chance to make meritorious service?"
