Chapter 38: First Coming to Battle

After a night, Jiang Cheng did not rest, but instead used the materials on the spot to create more than 20 puppets with a few trees in the courtyard. This kind of puppet is different from the one sold in Tianyuan City, and is even simpler. It also requires help from time to time to twist the spring-like machine to accumulate energy, and the actions that can be made are also very simple.

As for whether it can be used, it still has to be tried on the battlefield before we know that Jiang Cheng took these puppets to find Zhao Zihao.

"Brother Jiang, these are..." Zhao Zihao looked at Jiang Cheng in amazement.

"The puppet made overnight." Jiang Cheng saw the hope of rising in Zhao Zihao's eyes, shook his head and smiled: "This kind of puppet has a single ability, and it is probably impossible to go out of the city to fight. If it is defended, Jiang wants to try it. If it can be successful, General Zhao will gather the craftsmen in the city, try to create some, which can also reduce the loss of some soldiers."

"How do you plan to try Brother Jiang?" Zhao Zihao was a little disappointed. He was a general in the Qi Training Realm and had also been to Tianyuan City and the capital. Naturally, he had seen puppets.

"I looked at the city defense of Zhaowu City yesterday. I found several not-so-important locations that were stationed by these puppets, scattered battlements of the city walls, and placed them. I will arrange for people to record some data. Of course, in order to avoid accidents, soldiers still need to patrol around, and if they fail, they can make up for it." Jiang Cheng told Zhao Zihao his thoughts.

Zhao Zihao nodded after hearing this: "These days, the enemy will launch some attacks, in order to exhaust our soldiers and prevent them from resting well. The offensive is not fierce, but the operation method of these mechanisms and puppets..."

"This is not difficult. Just do this, and the puppet can move like this for a quarter of an hour." Jiang Cheng personally manipulated the mechanical brackets behind the puppet, and then saw the puppet's arms shrink and sting. Their arms were specially made into a cone shape, and the tip was inlaid with iron cones, which were enough to break the enemy's armor and pierce the enemy's body.

Zhao Zihao's eyes lit up when he looked at the puppet's movements. Although the movement was simple, having such a puppet guarding the city wall was equivalent to two soldiers holding spears constantly stabbing the enemy's directions. Although they were not high-end products, they were a great help to the current situation.

Of course, what Zhao Zihao admired the most was Jiang Cheng's attitude. He did not directly guarantee that he should move forward bravely as a soldier, but the most important thing for a general is to be cautious. If he had not underestimated the enemy this time, even if there were reinforcements from the Montenegro, he would not have been defeated so miserably.

At that moment, Zhao Zihao and Jiang Cheng took the puppet to the city wall. Jiang Cheng found several locations and fixed the twenty or so puppets. There were three inverted cones on the puppet's feet, and there was a wooden stick like a tail behind it, which could pierce the ground, which greatly ensured the stability of the puppet and the strength of the piercing.

As the sun was noon, in the military camp in the distance, the enemy soldiers began to walk out. Standing on the five-meter-high city tower and looking from afar, the figures gradually gathered into more than a dozen square formations, rushing towards this side in dense circles.

"Woo~Woo~Woo~Woo~"

The sound of desolate horns sounded in the wilderness of the lonely city of Xichiao, and countless enemy troops began to spread towards Zhaowu City.

Zhao Zihao didn't have time to study puppets with Jiang Cheng at this moment. When the enemy was preparing to attack, he had already begun to arrange it. Crossbow bows pointed diagonally at the sky. After the enemy entered the range of 300 steps, with a command, three hundred strong bows released their bowstrings at the same time. Crossbow arrows rushed into the air, and a tragic howling sound passed through the air, with a sharp roar. After the arrow cluster climbed to the highest point, it began to turn sharply and landed fiercely towards the enemy.

How many bloodshots were splashed in the enemy formation, but most of the arrow clusters were blocked by the enemy's shields.

Jiang Cheng vaguely remembered that some information about ancient wars I had read in my previous life. If I pulled the bow, the range was generally around a hundred steps. Even if I was condescending, there would not be too many more ranges. He didn't know how much one step was calculated at that time, but it would not exceed a hundred meters. The distances of these soldiers' shooting at the moment were a bit exaggerated. Three hundred steps were according to the steps of the soldiers in Wurui Camp. The distance of three hundred steps was about 330 meters.

But there is nothing wrong with thinking about it. Each of these soldiers from Wurui Camp has the strength of the peak body tempering and their arms are capable of lifting a thousand pounds. In Jiang Cheng's original world history, each of them is no worse than Xiang Yu who can lift a tripod, or even more than that. Moreover, the bows used are specially made by the Great Kun Kingdom, which are not as good as magic weapons, but have a very long range.

Jiang Cheng took out a few pieces of straw paper and began to record the data silently. The enemy's troops' arrangements contained not the things that were seen on the surface, but also the habit of the opponent's generals deploying troops. With these, more targeted arrangements can be made next.

But at the beginning, Jiang Cheng was able to record data calmly, but as the war continued, the enemy quickly attacked the city, began to build a ladder, and rushed forward and forward to the city. Jiang Cheng's originally calm heart began to change.

An enemy soldier roared and stomped his head from the city wall. The cone arm of the puppet was pierced through the face armor with blood and brain fragmented. On the other side, a soldier jumped up directly. In the air, the cone arm of the puppet pierced into his abdomen at the moment he jumped up. Amid the shrill screams of the enemy soldier, the not sharp cone arm was broken open. However, the puppet ruthlessly pierced the other arm through his feet. The enemy's corpse fell directly on the puppet, and the puppet continued to attack. As Jiang Cheng said, as long as the power of the mechanical stent has not stopped and the body has not been destroyed, these puppets can continue to attack ahead.

Jiang Cheng's face was a little pale. It was his first time to come into contact with the battlefield, and it was his first time to die from such a close contact.

Not only Jiang Cheng, but also the disciples of the Mathematical Art Academy who were arranged by him to record data in other basics, were extremely unbearable. Yue Shan and several other senior brothers even vomited directly.

"Mr. Jiang? Are you going to the city to rest?" Beside Jiang Cheng, a soldier sent by Zhao Zihao to protect Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Cheng worriedly.

"It's okay." Jiang Cheng shook his head with a pale face, resisting the urge to vomit, but his eyes stared at the battlefield, recording the changes every moment.

Cultivation is fighting with the heavens, and he will definitely encounter a fight in the future. Now there are cities as a support and these soldiers to protect them. But who knows what will happen in the future? This is a good opportunity to hone your mind. Even if you feel extremely uncomfortable, he still lets himself open his eyes to see these, trying to make himself calmly record the data.
