Covered by sand and mounds, apart from leaving a group of three thousand elites to spread out to monitor the enemy's movements, the rest of the soldiers were immediately divided into three parts, which were used to control and launch the three types of combat tools mentioned earlier.
.
The so-called "Fire Flying Kite" was usually called "Sacred Fire Flying Crow" before it was improved in the past. In normal history, it should have been invented in the Ming Dynasty, but in this world, it was assembled in batches by Jibie who concentrated in the border areas at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The firearms produced and used shined brightly against the Yan people headed by Murong Chui.
This is a kind of firearm made of bamboo strips. It looks like a crow and is sealed with tissue paper. It contains gunpowder, wolfsbane, arsenic and more than ten kinds of medicines. It has a head, tail and wings on the front and rear to enhance the stability of flying in the air.
And it has sustained power, just like a bird flying into the sky. There are four take-off rockets slanted under the crow's body, which become a powerful force for taking off, enough to make the firearm fly more than a hundred feet.
When it reaches the target, the gunpowder in the flying crow explodes, not only setting the target on fire, but also releasing poisonous gas, mainly arsenic, which can poison the enemy into coma, and the smoke is filled, blocking the enemy's sight, which is very effective.
At present, the Sha family in the Jiangnan area are also proficient in the technology of such firearms and sell them at high prices. Later, they were transformed and upgraded by the research institute and developed multiple versions with different shapes and functions. In order to distinguish the Sha family, there are still a large number of
The original version in stock is collectively called "Arson Flying Kite".
The biggest difference between the Arsonist Flying Kite and the original flying crow is that they use brand-new technology on their wings, which allows them to vibrate quickly with the help of the burning power of gunpowder. As a result, the flight time and flight distance have been doubled, and multiple
The types have synergistic effects.
After receiving the order from the superior captain to launch a raid, more than half of the people quickly took out three-foot-long wooden kites from the accompanying carts, placed them on a special take-off stand, and then lit them one by one with fire sticks.
These wooden iris tails have fuses that are about a foot long.
"blow!"
In an instant, hundreds of pyrotechnic flying kites soared into the sky from their stands, crossed the night sky, and fluttered towards the white Tongwan City in the distance. The traces left by the fireworks became a spectacle and dazzling.
Although at first the flight path of the flying kites showed a straight ray due to the guidance of the special track, but as they flew higher and higher, they became more and more scattered under the blowing of the night wind, and it seemed that they were flying.
The tendency to lose track of time.
Then, among this large group of flying kites, a few suddenly shot out more violent sparks, and quickly rushed to the front of the entire team, creating a forward wake vortex airflow at the tips of their wings, causing the flying kites behind them to
The kites all benefited from the effort and quickly arranged themselves into a "human" shape, similar to the shape of a flock of wild geese.
Relying on these set flying kites to accelerate the consumption of fuel, with about a hundred flying kites in a group, each "flying geese array" was arranged about a distance of about fifty feet, forming a picture like a giant wing of fire.
The unique patterns look like the night sky, and the scene is very spectacular.
Although the expeditionary force's surprise attack was not expected, and due to the harsh environment, the number of Turkic soldiers who stayed up late to guard the city was not large. However, looking at the scene of firelight in the sky from a distance, dozens of sentries immediately appeared on the observation tower.
The designated horn was blown, and the relevant news was spread, causing the entire wolf army in Tongwan City to enter the countdown to awakening.
However, before the Turks could take effective countermeasures, in just a dozen breaths, thousands of fire kites had already entered the airspace above Tongwan City, and then dozens of special flying kites suddenly appeared
A dazzling light came on, to the point of making people blind.
Under the strong light obtained by these flying kites burning active metals, the large number of Turks who had just woken up to the news of the enemy's attack and were preparing to assemble in the open areas of each camp with soldiers and arrows were immediately stimulated by the flash and could not see the normal sight.
A lot of things are in chaos.
The next moment, another hundred and ten slightly heavy flying kites suddenly exploded into pieces, releasing a large amount of irritating gas and spreading accelerant particles, making the panicked Turkic soldiers suspect that the enemy had dropped poisonous mist.
Something like that, I quickly held my breath forcibly without seeing clearly, and I couldn't help but feel panicked.
But in fact, the original ability of the "Sacred Fire Flying Crow" to release poisonous mist is not very effective. It only has a short-term impact on people, forcing the enemy to hold their breath and retreat quickly, and it will be blown away after a while, leaving them in an open field.
The poison cannot kill anyone at all. It mainly plays the role of weakening the enemy's condition. It must be combined with long-range weapons with heavy lethality such as stone-throwing arrows.
The truly efficient and powerful poison gas should be the "Wannian Fan" of the Maitreya Sect in the past, the "Rioting Madness" obtained by Yao Xing from the Qiuci people in the later Qin Dynasty, and the "Sorrowful Breeze" of Xixia in Jin Yong's world, but the cost
Or the output is not ideal and can only cover a small area.
Therefore, now they have been changed to pure panic-mongering non-toxic gases with a much lower effective concentration. They are more focused on another combustion-supporting direction instead of dividing the space occupied by some raw materials for such low-efficiency
on the attack.
When the combustion-supporting gas and particles spread, the overwhelming number of ordinary arson flying kites also began to play their role. Their wings were driven up and bent by the built-in mechanism, causing them to circle and move in an elusive trajectory.
with;
The mouth continuously shoots out high-temperature and blazing sparks like beads, completely blindly and randomly, making the area they cover as wide as possible without missing any object that can be ignited.
The sparks flying everywhere are sticky fire oil droplets that can stick to buildings, various debris, and even people's clothes, and continue to burn on their surfaces. Although each flying kite only carries a few
Literal amount, but extremely lethal to flammable targets.
For a time, the sky above Tongwan City, the houses in the city, and the space outside the tents were all filled with colorful fireworks flames. The flames were everywhere. When this "beautiful" and destruction were combined, it formed a strange and mysterious scene.
The thrilling picture is even more shocking than the flying geese array just now.
Although many houses in Tongwan are built purely of bricks and stones and will not be ignited by sparks, the Turks occupied a large number of aboriginal houses after settling in the city, forcing them to temporarily crowd into tents on the streets.
In addition, the newly built army camps in the city are all made of wood and cloth;
In addition, in order to resist the cold night in the desert and play a role in heating, as well as to try to use fire attack and smoke attack in the battle shortly after, many warehouses to store wood were built in the city. At this time, they were fueling the fire of Tongwan City.
The power was so overwhelming that it made the Turks unable to save themselves.
Along with the huge tongues of fire rising into the sky, a large amount of thick smoke rose up in the city and spread in all directions with the night wind. For a moment, the scene became filled with smoke for several miles and the vision was unclear. Even if the shining flying kite had burned out, it was difficult to get far.
The condition of seeing objects from a distance.
Faced with an astonishing fire attack that could burn most of Tongwan City to the ground, the Turks showed their strong ability to deal with sudden changes. Elites with higher cultivation levels decisively dealt with the frightened soldiers who caused chaos in the city, and forcibly quelled the out-of-control situation.
situation, trying to restore things to an orderly state.
War drums gradually sounded in unison both inside and outside the city. The wolf army panicked but began to put out fires and search for people. At the same time, they moved their soldiers in the direction of the fire kite to deal with the expeditionary force that might invade from Jilu Sai.
.
The most rare thing is that under the control of their owners, the war horses, which were originally afraid of fireworks, were unstable but did not lose control and went crazy. They kept galloping through the streets of the city to deliver orders and deliver supplies, showing that even in the current extreme situation,
The wolf army still maintains strong combat effectiveness.
…
However, the Turks, who had just thought that they had survived this disaster, were preparing to send several thousand troops out of the city to search for traces of the enemy, vowing to avenge the fire attack. However, they did not expect that after the release of the arson flying kite,
Finally, the second team finally arranged the launch procedures for the "shock jammer".
It was a large crossbow machine assembled one after another. The particularly thick arrows were mounted on it. You could see that the middle ends of the arrows were fixed with a strange machine.
The flash smoke cover advanced another two to three hundred feet, and was quickly launched towards the places with the highest flames in the city.
Accompanied by the whistling sound that enveloped the sky and the earth, more than a dozen specially made giant arrows fell diagonally into multiple areas in the city, penetrating through houses and the ground, and going straight into the ground more than ten feet deep. Because of the burning houses outside,
The tents were blocking the way, and even if there were people who could see the trajectory of the arrows, few would dare to get close enough to investigate.
Immediately afterwards, the shock jammer began to operate at full power, and the thrilling whistling sound quickly spread, overwhelming the original crackle of burning wood, and the screams and howls of pain from those who were burned, causing the sound to be heard within a radius of hundreds of feet.
The Turks could not help but cover their ears with their hands, their faces distorted, and they endured the pain that penetrated their ears and shook their souls.
Especially for people who were closer, their ears suddenly lost feeling from the sudden loud noise. Their eardrums hurt like a razor blade, and their internal organs seemed to have been hit by a sledgehammer. They seemed to want to vomit something but couldn't.
He didn't have the strength to spit it out, and his body gradually collapsed, with blood overflowing from his seven orifices. It was clear that his life was taken away by the shock that exceeded the limit of endurance.
The so-called "shock jammer" naturally refers to the machine bound to the giant arrow rather than the arrow itself. It has an effect similar to modern floor shakers or shock bombs, and can function for a long time to create deafening violent sounds.
.
After being shot into the fire ruins by specially made giant arrows, the jammers pierced deeply into the city will continue to consume fuel and make noise, making it impossible for the nearby Turks to enter a state of rest, thereby achieving the effect of "tiring the troops" and increasing their combat effectiveness.
dramatically drop.
Under the current situation, the Turks, who had been deprived of both their vision and sense of smell, almost lost their hearing. The transmission of orders encountered unprecedented obstacles. No matter how high their combat quality was, it would be difficult for them to do so.
To make up for it, he finally fell into an irreparable defeat.
Due to the interruption of communication with the upper-level officers, most of the Turks and other Han and Yi people inside and outside the city fell into a state of madness after a short period of depression. There were more than tens of thousands of people regardless of the cold weather.
Feng Yu was in a situation where he had no time to bring food and supplies, so he simply abandoned the city and fled.
What makes Kang Sheoli, the Turkic general who commands the army in the city, even more desperate is that until the attack has reached this stage, not even half of the Turks have seen the enemy in person. It can be said that this is a sight-distance attack.
The super blow from outside completely made the defenders of Tongwan City completely unable to stand up.
When this confidant of Jieli made up his mind to give up controlling the vast majority of people in the city and only commanded a small number of elites nearby, trying to protect a few important areas and maintain stability, the third branch outside the city had about two hundred people.
The team has connected dozens of specially-made carts through machinery in an exquisite way, locking them with each other to form a huge structure.
There is no doubt that this is the "City-Splitting Giant Crossbow" as the final weapon of this raid. It exceeds ten feet in size, but does not have many characteristics of ordinary crossbows. Overall, it looks like a long bar
The bracket has two tubular arrow paths left in the middle.
In fact, instead of saying that this super giant crossbow that reaches ten thousand stones is a crossbow machine, it is better to call it a giant slingshot, because it completely abandons the traditional bow blade energy storage and changes it to the shape of an inertia flywheel.
To be continued...
