Chapter 408 The Power of Catapults

When Wei just brought some food over and Li Qi and others filled their bellies, Lu Xiuying finally dared to come.

"I feel wronged, Mr. Li." Lu Xiuying smiled and sat on a chair nearby.

Li Qidao: "I can't say I'm wronged. After all, it's my honor to serve the Imperial Master."

"Master Li is really good at talking." Lu Xiuying said with a smile, "It is an honor for me to have Master Li work for me."

After a few words of greeting, Li Qi asked: "When are the Imperial Guards going to use the trebuchet?"

"The day after tomorrow will be the time of war, and the trebuchet will come in handy." Lu Xiuying said, "I will have to trouble Mr. Li then..."

Li Qi smiled and said: "That's natural, but I still have to declare in advance that I will not get involved. If something goes wrong with the trebuchet, I will only be responsible for solving the problem."

Lu Xiuying smiled and said, "Of course I won't let Lord Li put himself in danger, just don't worry, Lord Li."

After discussing for a while, as soon as Lu Xiuying left, Li Qi quickly asked Tang Yun to lay out the duvet, and quickly got into bed.

"Sir, do you need me to accompany you in the future?" Tang Yun asked.

Li Qi took Tang Yun's hand and said, "Don't go. How dangerous is the battlefield? Monk and I can just go there, and you can just wait for me in the military camp."

"But……"

"I know you are worried about me, but what I said is serious. I don't want anything to happen to you, understand?" Li Qi said seriously.

For Tang Yun, Li Qi now really treats her as a family member.

Nowadays, he would discuss everything with Tang Yun and never concealed or deceived her.

After all, people's hearts are made of flesh. Li Qi knew very well that Tang Yun was good to him, so how could he turn a blind eye to it.

The only thing that worried Li Qi was the Tang clan's blood feud. He had never dared to talk to Tang Yun about this, mainly for two reasons.

First, Tang Yun has now come out of hatred, and Li Qi doesn't want her to fall into it again.

Secondly, if Tang Yun were to know that her real enemy was Liu Men, this woman would be in trouble if she got excited and went to settle accounts with Liu Men.

Li Qi thought that although he had established himself in this era, it was obviously not the right time to compete with the Six Doors.

After all, there is the Emperor of Great Xia behind the six doors.

After staying in the military camp for two days, the armies of Daxia and Snow Country gathered again, and the war was about to break out.

Li Qi, who had witnessed a large-scale cold weapon battle for the first time while riding on a horse, felt an indescribable shock in his heart.

In all directions, there were crowds of people, you couldn't even see the side, and the sound of war drums of all kinds could be heard all the time.

The messengers were coming and going, making it difficult for anyone to see clearly.

In front of a huge snow field, the armies on both sides were separated by more than a thousand feet.

Li Qi was placed at the back and had no chance to see Daxia's army.

On the snow country's mobile command carriage, there was a man standing with several flags in his hand, waving them rhythmically.

Every time it is waved, the soldiers of the Snow Kingdom follow the flag and undergo various changes.

Before Li Qi could react, the loud shouts made the earth tremble.

"kill!!!!"

In the gray-blue sky, the sunlight is blocked by clouds, and the pierced parts show a few wisps of blood, like dried blood stains.

On the ground, the two armies were like ants, rushing towards each other.

This kind of shock cannot be described in words at all.

Although Li Qi was riding a horse, the blood in his body surged with the footsteps and shouts.

As a modern person who has traveled through time, Li Qi has never seen such a scene.

Although I have seen it in many movies and TV dramas, those are just pictures and are far less shocking than personal experience!

"The trebuchet is ready!"

"Oil the barrel!"

"Get ready to light the fire!"

"put!!"



Hearing the sounds coming from around him, Li Qi came back to his senses and saw ten huge trebuchets throwing lit oil barrels into the sky!

The oil barrel is like a huge fireball, flying quickly towards the sky, forming a beautiful parabola.

Most of the soldiers in the Snow Country had seen a trebuchet for the first time and were attracted by the fireball that suddenly appeared in the sky. However, it was only for a moment that they stared straight ahead.

Because any next move may cost you your life.

The battlefield is like this, there is no way to retreat, it is either death or life!

The oil barrel exploded soon after it flew out.

Li Qi couldn't see the power of its explosion at all. After all, it was too far away. Even standing on horseback, he could only see an outline at most.

"Sir! Oops, the trebuchet is jammed!"

A figure rushed to Li Qi and shouted.

At this time, Li Qi was wearing a homemade mask on his face, and no one knew who he was.

The person responsible for launching the trebuchet is only known to be the person arranged by the Imperial Guard. If there is any problem with the trebuchet, he should be contacted.

Li Qi got off his horse and trotted after the man. When he came to a huge trebuchet, he saw flames blazing and the oil barrels placed in the throwing area were already burning.

Seeing this, Li Qi shouted: "Everyone spread out!!!"

After hearing this, everyone dispersed one after another, but unfortunately it was a step too late.

Under the fierce temperature, the oil barrel exploded violently, and the scattered fire flakes flew everywhere!

Fortunately, Wei Gang protected Li Qi in advance and he was not injured.

Climbing up from the dark snow, Li Qi looked up and found that despite his warning, many people were injured.

Some people were rolling in the snow, and some were running around.

Li Qi took a deep breath, feeling a little complicated.

Now he has finally seen the power of oil barrels.

He had caused so many casualties despite his own reminder. Think about how powerful an oil barrel would be if it fell from the sky.

Grandma’s!

Are you doing something wrong or doing something good?

Sighing, Li Qi knew that it was too late to regret now. The trebuchet had been invented and used.

It's useless even if I regret it again.

Putting away his complicated emotions, he quickly went to check other trebuchets to avoid such an accident from happening again.

After the inspection was completed, a man rushed over on a brown horse.

This man was wearing animal skin armor and holding a spear in his hand.

"What are you doing? Why don't you continue throwing?!" the man on the horse shouted.

Li Qi did not speak, but pushed him aside. After the man left, he asked a centurion: "Who was that man just now?"

"It's Prince Ke."

Kill the prince?

Is he Nalanke in terms of feelings?

The guy who was tricked by me in Snowstorm Valley before?

Thinking of this, Li Qi smiled, this guy is really a stinker.
