Chapter 899 Zhenjiang City with Hidden Mysteries
Zhou Yao's words immediately attracted the attention of Chen Dong, Meng Dabiao and Sun Kong.
Only Bai Qi stood there, smiling and saying nothing.
The four of them lay on the battlements and looked down.
However, in the eyes of Chen Dong, Meng Dabiao, and Sun Kong, there were no other abnormalities on the city wall except for the craters bombarded by artillery fire.
Zhou Yao gently stroked the rough outer city wall with his right hand and said meaningfully.
"I just said that it is impossible for the Snow Dragon Cavalry to really defend a city by relying on cold weapons such as spears and daggers."
"Zhou Yao, what do you mean by this?"
Meng Dabiao asked first.
Chen Dong and Sun Kong also looked at Zhou Yao doubtfully.
The Snow Dragon Cavalry used cold weapons to kill the famous iron-blooded lions, but now Zhou Yao's words are obviously refuting the reputation of the Snow Dragon Cavalry.
Zhou Yao chuckled lightly, and my right hand was still stroking the outer city wall, while brushing off the snow hanging on the outer city wall.
When there is only a thin layer of ice left, there are still some gaps in the city wall that can be vaguely seen.
Zhou Yao pointed at the gap and said meaningfully: "If I guessed correctly, the entire Zhenjiang City was built into a mecha city, right?"
Mecha City?!
Chen Dong was surprised and looked puzzled.
Meng Dabiao and Sun Kong also looked confused.
"You kid, stop being so pretentious and tell me directly, what exactly is Mecha City?"
Meng Dabiao became a little impatient, punched Zhou Yao lightly on the chest, and urged: "As for the gaps you pointed out, if the ancient city construction is followed, regardless of the inner and outer city walls, there will be such traces."
"Indeed, but these gaps are very regular, even neat openings for movement."
Zhou Yao smiled, and moved his right hand fingers along the gap through the thin ice, and said calmly: "Look at the gap I crossed, it is in the shape of a zigzag. If the city wall rocks in this area can be dented,
, and then spit it out of the barrel?"
What?!
Chen Dong and three others were shocked at the same time.
Chen Dong followed the route drawn by Zhou Yao and took a closer look, and immediately frowned.
On the outer wall, there are not only pits and depressions caused by shells, but also many gaps.
But if you look at the gaps drawn by Zhou Yao, it is indeed a square shape, hidden in the gaps in the messy city wall. If Zhou Yao hadn't said it, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
Because this glyph is really hidden too secretly.
"The Mecha City you are talking about is actually the entire four walls of Zhenjiang City that have been renovated. It looks like an ancient city, but it actually has a hidden secret. When a real siege battle occurs, tens of millions of artillery fire can be discharged in an instant.
?”
Chen Dong was thoughtful and murmured in a deep voice.
"Yes, that's what it means. The entire Zhenjiang City has been strictly renovated. Leaving aside the interior of the city, the four walls must have been renovated at a huge cost."
Zhou Yao said with great certainty.
In his original army, he was specialized in all kinds of firearms and equipment, so he was extremely confident in what he said at this time.
"Damn it, everything has been renovated. Isn't Zhenjiang City just a terrifying arsenal?"
"However, cold weapons are indeed inferior to hot weapons when it comes to defending a city. I think what Zhou Yao said is reasonable."
Meng Dabiao was amazed, while Sun Kong calmly agreed with Zhou Yao's words.
At this time.
Bai Qi, who had been silent all the time, stepped forward with a smile and said: "Zhou Yao is right, the Sifang City Wall has indeed been transformed. If a siege war really breaks out, in an instant, the Sifang City Wall will be filled with thousands of people.
With the strength of thousands of firepower, almost all the hot weapons you can think of are on the four walls of Zhenjiang City."
"Nuclear bomb?"
Meng Dabiao blinked and looked at Bai Qi with raised eyebrows.
Bai Qi: "..."
What the hell...
However, it was affirmed by Bai Qi.
Chen Dong and others also calmed down.
Just looking at Zhenjiang City again, even Chen Dong felt different.
It can be seen how much effort Huo Zhenxiao put into making Zhenjiang City the only natural barrier on the northern border.
This is a natural barrier built by manpower.
Suppress the border and block everything!
The pits and dents on the outer city wall are the result of countless artillery fires, which is enough to prove how many cannon fires Zhenjiang City withstood after it was successfully built.
"But under normal circumstances, we will not drag the battle to the gates of Zhenjiang City. Normal operation is to directly march out with the army and start a battle with the Yi army outside the territory." Bai Qi added.
Chen Dong rubbed his nose: "This is indeed the operation of the Snow Dragon Cavalry Army, but what's going on with the artillery shell craters on the outer city wall?"
Bai Qi's expression dimmed, and he smiled bitterly: "These are all left over from a few battles. A dozen Yi coalition forces went south together to encircle Zhenjiang City, trying to uproot this tree standing on their way south.
nail!"
Chen Dong suddenly realized.
This is the same principle as fighting in ancient times to attack cities and fortresses.
If the Yi people invade south, they can indeed bypass Zhenjiang City.
But after bypassing it, what awaits them will not be whipping their whips southward and sweeping the plains, but all the 300,000 snow dragon cavalry troops in Zhenjiang City will come out and, together with other friendly forces in the territory, surround the Yi army.
Therefore, unplugging Zhenjiang City is the best choice to go south!
However, feeling Bai Qi's gaze, Chen Dong suddenly felt nervous.
When Bai Qi's words fell into the ears of Meng Dabiao and the others, they were so shocking that they were so shocked that they fell silent.
But in Chen Dong's ears, it had a different meaning.
"A dozen Yi tribes can join forces to force Zhenjiang City, but what about hundreds of Yi tribes?"
This is what Chen Dong thinks in his heart.
In a daze, Baizu Order came to mind again.
That ordinary token, with the overwhelming meaning behind it, is like a sword holding up the sky, lying across the sky above Zhenjiang City. It may fall down at any time and destroy the city with one sword!
"Okay, everything that needs to be said has been said. In the next 24 hours, everyone will stand on the first shift!"
Bai Qi withdrew his gaze from Chen Dong.
Following the order, Chen Dong and the other five stood in their respective positions.
Even if the sky is full of wind and snow, even if the wind and snow outside the city blur the vision.
Chen Dong and the other five men were still standing upright on the top of the city, like unsheathed swords.
This is the duty of a soldier!
Time passes slowly.
Chen Dong and others, except when they could sit down and rest for three meals, spent the rest of the time standing on top of the city.
Night gradually falls.
The temperature also gradually dropped.
Maintaining one movement for a long time, standing still, is very taxing on the body.
As the temperature drops, the feeling of biting cold wind becomes more intense.
The howling cold wind is like an invisible sharp knife, cutting into people's bodies.
The goose feathers and heavy snow accumulated on the body, gradually engulfing the person.
Chen Dong had already expected it. Even though he was wrapped in an animal velvet robe, he could still feel the cold air entering his body.
But with his body, he can withstand it.
On the other hand, Meng Dabiao, Zhou Yao and Sun Kong, as the night got darker and darker, and the temperature got lower and lower, the endurance of the three of them reached the limit one after another.
When the time reaches midnight.
The cold wind howled like an evil ghost.
The heavy snow seems to be falling from the sky.
Chen Dong was so cold that he had goosebumps all over his body. The standard spear he held in his right hand was still as if he was holding it on an ice cube even though the handshake position had been specially processed due to the drop in temperature.
He is like this.
Zhou Yao and Sun Kong, who were physically weaker, were already shivering from the cold.
Even Meng Dabiao couldn't help but cursed: "Damn, I'm so sloppy. It's so damn cold to stand still all night. I wish I could have a fight."
Crunch!
The words just fell.
The sound of bows and arrows suddenly echoed on the city wall.
It was as if the sound of drawing a bow and setting an arrow instantly tightened the nerves of Chen Dong and the others.
Chapter completed!
