Three Kingdoms: Hegemony System
Chapter 50
In the early hours of the morning, it was the time when people were sleeping soundly, especially those Cao soldiers.
Starting from Wancheng, they didn't encounter any trouble along the way, and the small group of enemy troops in the past few days was only a small fight, and they easily won a city, which made them feel extremely comfortable.
Cao's soldiers and soldiers all felt that under the leadership of the two generals, Cao Ren and Cao Hong, they would definitely be able to capture Fancheng and Xiangyang quickly, and it didn't even cost much.
In this comfortable atmosphere, even the patrolling soldiers were careless, and even took a nap.
It was also at this time that Gan Ning, Wei Yan, and Zhang Sheng each led a thousand soldiers and took advantage of the darkness to touch the city wall.
Gan Ning saw that the city was pitch black, and even the patrolling soldiers couldn't see it, so he immediately sneered and said to the soldiers beside him: "Start acting!"
The soldiers took out their arrows, and the arrows were already wrapped with strips of cloth, pine resin, and other things, and the fire was set off at a moment's notice, and then they saw them draw their bows and arrows, and shoot their rockets into the city.
Don't think that the ancient city walls are very high, like the city wall of the Tang Dynasty capital is only six meters high, and the city wall of Xinye is not even four meters, and there is not even a moat outside.
For a moment, rockets rained down on the city's roofs.
At this time, the common people, ordinary people could not afford to use tiles, and most of the roofs were made of thatch, and Liu Jue ordered his subordinates in advance to sprinkle sulfur and saltpeter powder on the roof, so that it was easier to burn.
The first to be alarmed were the patrolling soldiers, who immediately panicked when they saw the rockets falling into the city, igniting the roofs of the houses and spreading rapidly.
"Walk the water! Hurry up and get up!" the patrol soldiers beat the gongs and drums, and the sound shook the sky for a while.
Those Cao soldiers who were originally asleep were quickly awakened by the sound of gongs and drums, and they were sleepy-eyed, and after being stunned for a while, they all understood what was happening.
Enemy attack!
In an instant, the entire Xinye City exploded, and the soldiers and soldiers rushed out of the houses one after another, and the slower ones were engulfed by the fire, and there were screams and wails everywhere.
Fire and water are merciless!
At this time, the fire of Shinno Castle was blazing, and the fire in the east, south, and west of the city burned red, and the winter weather was dry and dry, and the fire became more and more raging.
However, this soldier under Cao Ren can indeed be called elite, and he has encountered all kinds of situations when he followed Cao Ren to the east and west.
After a brief moment of panic, they immediately formed a team and rushed towards the north of the city, which had not yet been burned.
At this time, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Jiang Ji, who were in the county government, were also awakened by this battle.
Seeing the monstrous fire all around, Cao Ren suddenly came to his senses, Liu Jue left the empty city of Xinye, not because he was afraid and fled, but planned to invite you into the urn.
"Liu Jue'er, I actually fell in love with your Tao this time!" Cao Ren gritted his teeth and hurriedly put on his armor.
At this time, Cao Hong ran over with an embarrassed face and said anxiously: "There is no fire in the north of the city, let's rush out of the city from there." "
"Let's go!" Cao Ren's face was hideous and terrifying, but he was very helpless, so he had to rush to the north of the city with Cao Hong and Jiang Ji.
But at this moment, a loud bang suddenly came, as if it was thunder, which alarmed many soldiers of Cao who were fleeing for their lives.
Some of the soldiers were running for their lives, and suddenly countless objects fell from the sky, either falling in front of them or hitting them in the head.
If you look closely, it is a bamboo tube with the thickness of an arm, and green smoke is still emitting from one end.
These soldiers were wondering, and suddenly there was a boom, and a flash of fire broke out in front of them, and the soldiers who were close were immediately shaken away.
A little farther away, their ears were buzzing from the sound of the explosion.
Many Cao soldiers were even hit by the flying tiles and let out bursts of screams.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
None of the soldiers and soldiers of Cao understood what was happening, so they heard loud noises one after another, fireballs exploded one after another, and people were constantly injured by the shock.
This extremely strange scene has exceeded their cognition, and some soldiers even think that this is God's punishment for their army to move south.
These brave soldiers of Cao, in the face of such something beyond common sense, began to panic and scurry like headless flies.
In this chaotic situation, I don't know how many soldiers of Cao died under the trampling of their comrades.
At this time, the Cao army in Xinye City has completely bombed the camp, not to mention Cao Ren at this time, even if Cao Cao is standing here, it is difficult to control the current situation.
In this era of cold weapons, the simplest firearms are beginning to show their terrifying side.
At this time, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Jiang Ji were all stunned when they saw this unbelievable scene.
"This ...... What the hell is this? Is it really a thunderbolt?" Cao Hong said with a worried face.
"I ...... How do I know?" Cao Ren, who had been through a hundred battles, had a rare expression of fear on his face at this moment, except for being dazed.
When faced with the unknown, people usually have a fear of the unknown.
What's more, this terrifying 'heavenly thunder' is falling on their heads and exploding around them.
At this time, the only thing Cao Ren could think of was to quickly withdraw from Xinye.
The army had been so badly damaged that it was no longer able to move south, and Cao Ren could only retreat first, then gather the scattered soldiers, and return to Wancheng to make another plan.
"Leave it alone, let's retreat!" Cao Ren roared.
At this moment, a bamboo tube fell from the sky and landed in front of Cao Ren and them, and green smoke was constantly emitting from one end.
"General, be careful!" a soldier not far away yelled and pounced on Cao Ren, who had just had the privilege of seeing a thunderbolt explode.
Boom!
With a loud bang, a huge fireball exploded, shaking everyone around them to their knees.
Cao Ren was dizzy for a while, his ears were buzzing, and it took a while to recover his strength, and he was helped to stand up by the surrounding soldiers.
Cao Ren hurriedly looked at the soldier, and saw that the other party was lying on the ground, with a blur of flesh and blood on his back, and some places were burned, and he couldn't help but take a breath of coolness.
Looking at the others, they all had varying degrees of hands, and Cao Hong's face was covered with blood.
"Zilian, how are you?" Cao Ren hurriedly asked.
"Brother, leave me alone for now, let's go out of the city. Cao Hong covered his cheeks and gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay, let's go!".
Cao Ren's heart was dripping blood, so he brought a horse, put the soldier who protected him on horseback, and then rushed towards the north gate with everyone in a panic.
