Although the legend about the term "Heavenly Thunder Artifact" has been popular in Goguryeo for a while, it can even be said that in recent times, it has become a bit complicated.
There is no exact source of intelligence except for the grassroots Xianbei soldiers and civilians, and word of mouth is inevitably distorted, but anyone with the rank of one and a half lieutenants in Goguryeo has basically heard about the tragic defeat of the Turks, and this Tang Dynasty
In the unprecedented war with the Turks, the effect of grenades was extremely dazzling, even to the point of being annoying...
If this grenade is so awesome, then the riding and shooting skills of our brothers will be useless, right?
snort!
The appearance of the grenade naturally caused a panic at the first moment, but then...
After all, it explodes when it lands in front of you, and the power of the explosion is legendary among the people. As time goes by, naturally no one will believe how awesome this thing is anymore.
But this night...
The Xianbei people witnessed the shocking power of thermal weapons for the first time.
The real power that shook the heaven and earth, as if the whole world was burning.
The Xianbei generals were unable to make any response.
The only reaction I could make was to be in a daze.
Facing this god-like power, the Xianbei people who worshiped the primitive gods were completely confused.
This thing...
This kind of thing...
How did the Tang State control it?
Oh my god...
Could it be that the legends are all true...
As soon as the heavenly thunder artifact came out, fire shot into the sky, and everything turned into ashes...
This story, which seems to be a popular folk legend, is actually happening at this moment.
Even under the abyss-like sea surface there is burning fire.
Everyone on this big ship has completely refreshed their outlook on life!
but.
The shocking scene begins...
Everyone was really shocked. The general did not react for ten seconds, nor for twenty seconds. He was stunned for thirty seconds, forty seconds...
It lasted for more than two minutes, and everyone was completely dumbfounded. However, although this scene was exciting, after these two minutes...
The Xianbei general also suddenly realized that something was not quite right about this situation.
Although there are flames all around...
However, these days, thunder artifacts either explode in the water, stirring up large water columns several feet high, or they explode in mid-air.
Although they are all very terrifying, whether it is the water column soaring into the sky, the fire exploding in the air, or the scorching waves of air...
But after all, there was not a ray of fire, and it fell directly on the ship!
General Xianbei suddenly realized...
This divine weapon of thunder has poor accuracy!
Although I don’t quite understand what is going on...
To be honest, I don't understand it at all.
I don’t understand the principle of the Heavenly Thunder Divine Artifact. I don’t understand how such a powerful thing can fly more than a hundred steps. Of course, I can see it clearly. It seems to be a big black iron lump... This is different from the rumors.
It's the same thing. I don't understand why the accuracy is so bad.
After thinking about it carefully, General Xianbei suddenly remembered his previous training——
Yeon Gaesumun also trained before leading his troops.
During the training, I did encounter the problem of difficulty in aiming when shooting arrows...
With lightning flashing in his mind, General Xianbei suddenly understood something.
The opponent's thunder artifact is indeed so powerful that it cannot leave the ground, but it is not invincible.
A head-on collision will indeed lead to death, but the accuracy of this thing is poor!
There is still a chance to escape!
When the opportunity to escape suddenly appeared, the Xianbei general excitedly grabbed a soldier who was shivering against the side of the ship and shouted loudly on the spot,
"Immediately go and give this general an order. The entire army must not panic and evacuate with all its strength!"
"General...general..."
The soldier was obviously frightened. The scene tonight was too big.
In fact, it wasn't just him, he was doing pretty well. There was no general sitting on the other end of the ship. Many people simply knelt down on the spot and kowtowed to the sky full of fire.
The Xianbei general knew that this man could not be counted on, and there were still many people on the ship...
No, to be exact, most everyone is in this state.
However, fortunately, warships at sea are different from military formations on land. Panic in the army will not lead to large-scale fleeing - how can you be a deserter at sea?
This is also one of the important reasons why some gangs in later generations were able to become powerful. The people on the sea had no cohesion but no cohesion...
Now that there is an environment in which deserters cannot be deserters, and the opponent's thunder artifact is difficult to target, things become much simpler.
The Xianbei general gritted his teeth, and this time he stopped shouting for the messenger. He ran back and forth from the bow and stern of the ship, shouting loudly.
"All my sons, listen to my words! Take action immediately! Set sail!"
"Tang Jun's heavenly thunder artifact is not accurate, and it will miss us for a while! Everyone, act quickly, or we will all be dead in a short while!"
The Xianbei general was sweating profusely and shouted back and forth twice, and gradually the soldiers finally responded.
——Yes, he is dead now no matter what.
Since it means death anyway, it's better to get up quickly and sail away.
What if he runs away?
If it really doesn't work, at least stay away from this terrible fire. Then at least there will be a chance to surrender and become a prisoner...
Ideas like this quickly spread in the big ship, and gradually someone finally took action.
Although fire was still erupting everywhere at this time, the Xianbei general also breathed a sigh of relief. Damn...
This time it was really thrilling, the naval battle turned out to be so complicated and difficult.
But now we have finally organized people again. If you can run away, that's fine. Just run away quickly.
The Xianbei general breathed a sigh of relief, but then he discovered that... things were still not optimistic.
Although the people on the ship are organized, survival is still something that will pass away in the blink of an eye——
The fire and explosions were getting closer and closer, becoming more and more dense towards the center of the warship.
The Xianbei general's heart was beating wildly, and he himself was extremely frightened.
However, as I just said to the soldiers...
When the real doomsday comes, even fear is a luxury for you, so hurry up and find a way to leave. This is the right way.
Soon, more wind-catching objects were hung on the mast of the ship. This time, not only old clothes and torn trousers, but also the soft bedding from the general's cabin were taken out to supplement the sails.
The boat speed increased a little bit, but...
With people who knew their stress response measures in advance and pre-designed military advantages, this effort finally... still produced disappointing results.
The explosion sounded near the stern of the warship, and the ship's hull erupted with a ferocity that was comparable to the shock of a huge wave...
