2035: sacrifice
Cao Hui stood on the top of a building, staring at the Ming airships hovering in the sky with huge sun and moon flags.
Below is the most prosperous Zhuque Street in Chang'an. The New Year is approaching, and it is the most lively time. Countless people gather here to purchase New Year's goods, and countless people set up stalls, selling things, or selling crafts. For example, some snacks and snacks that have long disappeared in other places in Daqi can still be found on Zhuque Street. After all, this is the capital of Qi. No matter how difficult it is, the Qi court will create an illusion of peace and stability in its own nest.
At this moment, thousands of people, old, young, men, women, adults, and children all looked up at the sky in a daze, looking at the huge sun and moon flag whistling in the wind.
The airship in the sky is an airship that distributes leaflets. They have no combat missions. At this moment, they are just promoting the power of the Ming Dynasty to the people of Qi in Chang'an. The crew members have noticed the difference on Zhuque Street. What makes them even more happy is that there are no defensive measures here.
Zhuque Street is the largest commercial area in Chang'an. It is here, there are many constables, squads or many, but how can it be arranged to be an army? This place is the core of Chang'an. In the past concept, if the enemy attacks here, the country will basically be destroyed.
But now, the enemy is really coming.
The airship was getting lower and lower, and the crew members were excited to show the Ming Dynasty to these Chang'an people in Qi State, but they didn't know that at this time, some wolf-like eyes were staring at them.
What the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty never expected was that the ghost headquarters of the Ming Dynasty was located here.
At this moment, two heavy crossbows had been moved to the roof.
Cao Hui raised his hand, and the heavy heavy crossbow was lifted up by one of his hands. He swept his eyes. The two lieutenants who had just raised the crossbow immediately understood his intention, strode forward, raised his hands, and lifted the heavy crossbow with force. Cao Hui stood behind the crossbow, squinted his eyes and began to aim. Unlike ordinary heavy crossbows, the crossbow of this heavy crossbow was tied with a long steel wire rope after the crossbow arrow. This kind of steel wire rope cannot be produced by Qiguo, and it was brought back by the ghost from the Ming Kingdom through special channels.
Beside Cao Hui, another ghost master also began to aim at the airship with the help of two lieutenants.
"Lower, lower it a little lower." Cao Hui whispered in a low voice.
The airship commander Mi Huaijun did not realize that the huge danger was approaching, or that the road was too smooth, which made him feel a sense of contempt and indifferent to Qi Ren's combat power that he himself did not consciously. At this moment, he just wanted to show off the Ming Dynasty's airship to his heart's content.
Cao Hui couldn't see the situation in the distance below. He was in the air, but he could clearly see the thick smoke coming out of the Chang'an Palace and the scene of airships rushing down and bombing. Even the palace of Qi was in and out of nothing by airships. So what should I be wary of in this place?
"Brothers, let the people of Qi take a good look at the style of our Ming soldiers." Mi Huaijun laughed and personally operated the airship and flew downwards. One hundred meters, eighty meters, fifty meters, the dull people of Qi were screaming. They began to flee around in panic in amidst howling ghosts and wolves. But at this moment, there were too many people on the Zhuque Street, crowded and crowded. Even if they wanted to run, they could not run away. I don't know how many people were squeezed to the ground at this moment, and then trampled on them.
The door panel of the store was directly squeezed out, and the surging crowd found a hole in the leak and immediately rushed in. The owner and the shop owner were drowned in the crowd before they even shouted, watching their goods completely turn into waste.
Mi Huaijun laughed loudly. The wolf and pigs of Qi people rushed to the top, which was the most wonderful scene for him, a Ming Dynasty person.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a huge danger, and his hair all over his body stood up in an instant.
The observer on the "heavy crossbow" airship had only had time to exclaim.
When Mi Huaijun turned around, he saw a huge crossbow gun rushing towards him.
"Ear the sky, take the sky," he hissed.
But his height was too low. A huge flying object like an airship was not like a person. He could jump up if he could jump or squat down if he could squat. The airship had only time to raise the head of the boat, and the heavy crossbow and crossbow gun came with a whistling sound.
One pierced through the leather bag on top and the other pierced through the pod below. A crewman who had no time to hide was forced into his chest by a heavy crossbow. The huge kinetic energy of the heavy crossbow carried the body of the Ming soldier and hit the steam engine at the rear of the airship. With a roar, the steam engine immediately capsized down.
The fire began to ignite in the pod of the airship.
Mi Huaijun had no choice but to regret it at this moment, because he was frightened to find that there were ropes behind the two heavy crossbows. At this moment, the sound of air leakage from the skin on his head was clearly heard in his ears. The airship that had lost its power was spinning in the air. Underneath, teams of Qi people in uniforms were pulling the rope desperately, trying to drag their airship over.
He pulled out his knife and chopped the rope hard. After one knife, it didn't break. Only then did he realize that the rope was the kind of special steel wire rope that was often used in the Ming army.
"Captain, no, useless," a crew member screamed in panic.
Mi Huaijun looked up at the sky, and it was indeed useless. At this moment, the skin was already rapidly deflated. Even if he cut off the steel rope, the airship could not take off.
"Brothers, I'm the one who hurt you." Mi Huaijun looked at everyone in the boat with some regret, but his hand took out a grenade from his arms, pulled out the latch, and put his fingers in the pull ring. "In the next life, we will be brothers."
All the crew members understood what Mi Huaijun was going to do. Some cried out loud, while others hissed, but everyone took out grenades from their arms almost at the same time, and like Mi Huaijun, they put their fingers into the pull ring.
Looking at the airship that had completely lost control and was being pulled down by his own command, Cao Hui smiled. They had never captured a complete airship for a long time. Now he got it. Even if Da Qi could not make the same thing, with real objects, he could always find a more effective way to deal with it.
There is a spear and a shield. Cao Hui didn't believe it and there was no way to deal with the Ming army's airship. Xu Junsheng used the Kongming lantern in Laizhou, but he accidentally injured an airship.
He smiled happily.
The panicked looks of the Ming soldiers in the airship fell into his eyelids.
They were yelling, they were crying, and they were scared.
Slowly, these people are indeed afraid, but what are they holding
Cao Hui's pupils suddenly contracted. The average Qi people and even the Qi soldiers did not know the power of the thing in the hands of Mingren, but he knew clearly that such things were even placed in his office.
He swept back hard.
"Go away, go away, go away," he shouted loudly.
Although the quick-reacting subordinates did not understand why Cao Hui suddenly made such a move, their habitual reaction to obeying orders made them run back with Cao Hui as soon as possible. The slower-reacting person turned back and looked at Cao Hui. At the moment when he turned around, the huge hull of the airship had fallen to their heads, and then, a violent explosion sounded over their heads.
Cao Hui was affected by the huge impact, and he flipped through the air for several times before he could barely stabilize his body and fell to the ground. As soon as his feet fell to the ground, his body shook and almost fell to the ground. He felt that his internal organs seemed to be trembling. He couldn't help but open his mouth and retching.
The upper floor of the building he used to live no longer exists.
"Bastard" he couldn't help but roar, and things fell down from time to time, including the wreckage of airships and the bodies of people who were blown up.
Over the Qi Palace, Han Dang had cast all the bombs and pulled them up, and he saw more and more heavy crossbows around the palace, and even catapults gathered here.
"Tell me, all airships, raise the height." He immediately ordered.
On the ground, countless heavy crossbows shot out from all directions, woven a large net in the air, and shot towards an airship that had just dived.
"Be careful" Han Dang shouted.
"General, Boat No. 3 was shot." A soldier exclaimed.
“Boat No. 5 was also injured.”
The two injured airships had suffered heavy blows in succession. After being injured, their flexibility and speed were extremely affected. Especially for Boat No. 3, the steam engine at the tail was fatally damaged, and the entire airship lost its power. After the speed dropped sharply, the huge hull was immediately filled with heavy crossbows and were falling down quickly.
"General, Boat No. 3 sent a banner and said, "The Ming Dynasty won thousands of victories." The signal soldier almost shouted in a crying voice.
Han Dang clenched his fists and watched the No. 3 boat fall down. With a loud bang, the entire airship disappeared from his sight.
"General, the flag slogan of Boat No. 5, they said, I wish us a happy return and a victory in the Ming Dynasty." The signal soldier shouted again.
At this time, the steam engine of Boat No. 5 started with all its strength, making a huge roar, and dropped a head in the air, and actually aimed at the area where the soldiers were most densely packed below and rushed over.
There was another loud bang.
Han Dang closed his eyes and then opened his eyes suddenly.
"Send all airships, and any bombs, to bomb freely for me. After dropping all bombs, we will return."
