Three hundred and ninetieth chapters wind and clouds (three)

The smokeless stove evolved from Ao Lie based on the necessary skills of later field troops when surviving in the wild. To put it bluntly, digging two connected soil pits. Deeper pits are used to make fires. Smaller and more tortuous soil pits can evaporate smoke. Later special forces often use this method in the wild to prevent their position from being exposed. Ao Lie was a complete adventure fan in his previous life, and of course he knew a lot of skills for survival in the wild. Ao Lie imparted these skills from later generations to soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty, hoping that they would do the best in every detail on the battlefield, which would also prevent unnecessary casualties and minimize combat losses. As the saying goes, details determine success or failure, this is the truth.

From digging out smokeless stoves to finishing all the 200,000 troops, it took less than half an hour for the Han army to eat a meal in half an hour. For ordinary people, it was really easy to be calm. However, in the army of 200,000 people, this speed can be said to be a miracle. The elite level of the Han army can be seen from this.

Under Ao Lie's special advice, the food of his soldiers has always been very good. Even if they are on an expedition now, the soldiers still have meat to eat. In Ao Lie's words, the one who eats meat is the wolf, and the one who eats grass is the sheep! Meat can not only enhance the body of the soldiers under his subordinates, exert their long endurance and combat power during battles, but also stimulate the fighting spirit in their hearts, because only by constantly winning battles can each of them have meat to eat!

After two noodles and a bowl of broth, the soldiers packed up their swords and guns, lay in the tent to regain their energy and gathered their energy. They waited for the battle more than an hour later. This was also a practice that Ao Lie deliberately instilled into the army, allowing the soldiers to fully relax before the war. Later, they could energize themselves in the battle and kill all directions.

While the other soldiers were preparing to rest, the two men seemed extremely busy. One was the Blood Killing Army led by Zhao Yun. They were responsible for the vigilance of the camp. They did not need the elite blood Killing Army to serve as the guard. However, where Ao Lie is, the elite blood Killing Army will take the initiative to take on this job. Because their existence has only one purpose, it is to ensure Ao Lie's absolute safety and eliminate any factors that may pose a threat to Ao Lie.

Another team was the Longxiang Army, which was also an elite army. It was 20,000 heavily equipped elite cavalry. Under the leadership of Lu Bu, he carried Danshui and food for three days, and then quietly rode his horse out of the camp, preparing to detour behind Hanzhong City to intercept and kill the Baili elite soldiers who might come to rescue. The brave ones won the narrow road, and the Longxiang elite soldiers were ready. They wanted to let the so-called Baili elite soldiers know what the real elite soldiers were!

The sunset hung weakly on the edge of the mountain, as if it could fall to the back of the mountain at any time, taking away the last trace of light. Suddenly, the sunset was struggling in the falling state. It seemed that it was frightened by something, and quickly put away the afterglow and plunged to the back of the mountain.

In the Han army camp, the soldiers had already assembled, arranged in neat formations, murderous aura, emanated from each soldier, gathering into an unrivalled force, which rushed straight into the sky like a substance. No wonder even the sunset fell down the mountain.

Looking around the soldiers in front of him, Ao Lie nodded with satisfaction. This was the army he had been committed to building, an army that had always been supported by military spirits. Such an army would be invincible! Without any extra words, Ao Lie just gave a loud and simple but very firm order: "Go!"

Fifty miles is a relatively safe distance. In the Han Dynasty, due to the lack of transportation, it was almost impossible to advance fifty miles and attack the enemy. However, this problem was obviously not difficult for the Han army. Before the sky was completely dark, the 100,000 Han army participating in this battle had reached the foot of Hanzhong City. The large flag of Yan characters embroidered with gold characters began to flutter in the wind under the Hanzhong City!

On the top of Hanzhong City, the Shu soldiers had already discovered the sudden Han army, and they shouted in panic: "Yan Army! That's the Yan Army. Oh my God, the Yan Army is ready to launch an attack!" Under Liu Bei's custom of claiming to be the orthodox Han, all the Shu soldiers were accustomed to calling the Northern Han army the Yan army to prove that they were the orthodox Han. However, the voices of the Shu soldiers at this moment were full of panic and fear, and there was no demeanor that the orthodox Han should have.

Huang Quan, the chief general guarding Hanzhong, came to the city at the first time. When he looked up and saw at least 100,000 Han troops arranged in the hazy night under the city, Huang Quan, who had always been shocked, couldn't help but add his forehead with his hands and screamed in disbelief: "Where did these Yan troops come from? Did they fall from the sky?" In love, this talent who was good at governing internal affairs was even later than Liu Bei before he got the news. Or, it was not until the Han army came to the city that Huang Quan woke up that the Han army was going to launch a general attack on Yizhou, and Hanzhong was their first battle!

The two deputy generals of Hanzhong City, Ling Bao and Lei Tong, also came to the city wall one after another. After all, they were military generals. Although they were as surprised as Huang Quan, they seemed much calmer than Huang Quan. Ling Bao said hurriedly: "Gongheng, the situation is critical now. As the main general, you must not lose your position. A certain person led the soldiers in the city to resist the Yan army first. General Lei quickly mobilized the troops in the city to defend the city. Gongheng, you can quickly send people to the neighboring county town and Chengdu for help, and ask the king and the county magistrates of each county to lead the army to help!"

After Ling Bao said this, Huang Quan immediately woke up and quickly put away his disobedient expression, forced himself to calm down, and said to Lei Tong: "General Ling is right, just do this. General Lei quickly mobilizes his troops. As the main general, he vows to survive and die with Hanzhong and will never leave the city. People come, prepare their pens and ink, and they will write a letter of help on the city!"

Ling Bao and Lei Tong both bowed to Huang Quan, and then turned to prepare. Lei Tong quickly walked down the city wall, turned over and ran to the military camp in the city. He knew that time was urgent, and he had to mobilize all the Shu soldiers in the camp as soon as possible to block the fierce attack of the 100,000 Han troops. Ling Bao drew his sword and shouted to the Shu soldiers on the city wall: "Don't panic! We rely on Hanzhong City, and it is not that easy for the Yan army to break the city. Everyone believes in this general, as long as we stick to it for five days, the king will definitely send reinforcements!"

Under Ling Bao's shouting, the Shu soldiers on the top of the city barely suppressed their fear and began to prepare for the equipment and armies to defend the city under Ling Bao's leadership. Ling Bao's shouting gave them a glimmer of life, five days! Only need to hold on for five days, Chengdu will definitely send reinforcements. In order to survive, all the Shu soldiers gritted their teeth and mustered up the courage to hold on to the invincible Han army for five days!

Under the city, seeing the crowds of people on the city, Ao Lie was not going to leave a wealthy time for the Shu soldiers to deal with it, and shouted immediately: "Siege the city!"

The 100,000 Han troops immediately started to operate. The 20,000 elite blood killing troops were divided into four square formations under the leadership of Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei, guarding Ao Lie in the front, back, left and right directions, and cutting off all factors that might threaten Ao Lie. Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei rode their horses to guard Ao Lie's left and right wings respectively. While protecting Ao Lie, they could also lead the elite blood killing troops on both wings to raid at any time according to the situation on the battlefield. Xu Chu and Dian Wei, the two gold medal thugs, were closely next to Ao Lie, and were doing the task of personal protection with conscientiousness.

In front, the generals Zhang Liao and Taishi Ci each led a square formation of 20,000 people to launch the first wave of attacks on Hanzhong City one by one. Taishi Ci was in front and led his troops to set up cloud ladders to attack the city gate. Zhang Liao was slightly behind and was ready to lead his troops to climb cloud ladders to attack the city at any time.

Fifty steps behind Zhang Liao and Taishi Ci, veteran Huang Zhong led 20,000 people to suppress the position. Among the soldiers commanded by Huang Zhong, there were 10,000 soldiers who were better at shooting in the Han army. Most of them came from ethnic minorities in Guang, Ming and Tong, who were good at riding and shooting. These ten thousand archers had already half pulled the bowstring and put arrows on the bowstring, but the bows pointed diagonally at the ground. They did this as a means to preserve their physical strength. After all, pulling the strings for a long time was very physically exhausting. On the battlefield, every time a minute of energy was saved, they might kill one more enemy. Another ten thousand people,

Five thousand people were responsible for the coverage and attack of the arrow tower. They divided the work and cooperated. Two thousand people pushed the arrow tower to move. Three thousand people followed the arrow tower. They just waited within the range and climbed up the arrow tower and shot down the city head at Hanzhong. The last five thousand people were the essence of Huang Zhong's army, which was five thousand crossbow gunners. They would operate five hundred red-clothed crossbows and take the opportunity to launch a devastating blow to the city head of Hanzhong. The sharp red-clothed crossbows had been uncovered with the red cloth covering the surface. There were a large, four small, and five powerful crossbows on the crossbow bed, flashing with a terrifying cold light, aiming at the city head of Hanzhong.

At the end of the attack sequence, there were 20,000 elite Qilin Army commanded by Gan Ning. However, Ao Lie never wanted to let the Qilin Army serve as the vanguard of the attack. He did not forget that in the last battle, the Qilin Army took the lead. Although he finally won the target, he lost nearly half of his manpower. With elite Qilin Army like the Qilin Army to fight the attack, Ao Lie would never let the same thing happen twice. Therefore, this time the Qilin Army's fighting style was adjusted.

At the end of the attack sequence, we controlled 600 thunderbolt vehicles and completed their tasks with long-range strikes. Ao Lie also considered it. On the new warships in Beihan, each warship was equipped with a certain number of red-clothed crossbows and thunderbolt vehicles. The Kirin Army could accurately use these two killing weapons to cause effective damage to the enemy on the undulating sea surface. Now that we are down-to-earth, there is no problem.

The Han army, which was attacking the city in the front and back four units, was Gan Ning, who was in the last position. Gan Ning raised his two halberds and shouted coldly: "It's a little dark, let's light up the Shu soldiers first!"

The elites of the Kirin Army agreed in unison, and then cooperated with each other to pull the cannon tip of the Pili chariot. With a creaking sound, the pull rod of the Pili chariot was quickly pulled to the maximum curvature. A jar of west wind liquor and tinder oil were loaded into the cannon tip of the Pili chariot. Under Gan Ning's order, every ten Thunder Wild chariots, the elite Kirin would place a small scattered flower on the cannon tip. These small scattered flower are not to kill the enemy, but to cause the full burning of west wind liquor and tinder oil!

PS: PS: Dakun said sorry first. Today is Sunday. It was supposed to be a hit, but Dakun has a game to play in a while and will be warming up soon, so he can't hit it. Let's just update it for now. If Dakun comes back early, in the update chapter, if he comes back late, I will make up for everyone tomorrow.
