———————————————
Ten days later, 200 catapults were transported from the arsenal in Guandu City, and Qian Xiaoxing immediately ordered the undead army to start training.
When the catapult car was trained with 240 kilograms of stones and hit the platform with a hit rate of 9 out of ten shots, Qian Xiaoxing began to let the soldiers start to get on the catapult car and conduct throwing training.
The wall of Shandu City is about ten meters high, which is equivalent to the height of a modern four-story building, so the height of the platform is more than ten meters high. In order to prevent soldiers from being injured during training, Qian Xiaoxing asked someone to make several air cushions, which were placed in front, back and left and right positions of the platform.
As the commander of the Infantry Brigade, Xiong Yitan was the first person to train. Seeing that he was wearing a full set of undead legion armor, weighing the big knife in his hand, and weighing it was 244 kilograms. Qian Xiaoxing said to Xiong Yitan: "Your big knife is too heavy, replace it with a samurai sword!"
Xiong Yitan glanced at the big knife in his hand, and was very reluctant to leave, and replied: "Chief of Staff, the big knife is going to kill Hu Jun, why don't I take off my helmet?"
Qian Xiaoxing nodded helplessly, Xiong Yitan happily took off his helmet, and after weighing it, it was exactly 240 kilograms. Seeing him coming to the catapult cart, he sat on the tray of the throwing arm.
Xiong Yitan moved his butt and grabbed the big knife with both hands. He was also very nervous. He just saw that they threw stones, at least more than ten meters high. It was a big deal to fall from this height, and it was still very risky. He stabilized his mind and said, "Prepare is complete!"
The soldier of the catapult car pulled the rope, and Xiong Yitan was thrown out. Seeing Xiong Yitan walking in the air with his legs, he screamed and flew towards the platform, as if he had practiced a lot of light skills.
After passing a parabola, Xiong Yitan fell on the platform, but the forward rushing force was too strong and he failed to stand firmly and rushed out of the platform and fell down.
Xiong Yitan shouted nervously, but after landing on the air cushion, he touched his hands and legs, and felt that he was not injured, so he jumped happily.
The soldiers of the Undead Legion behind also began to practice, but half of the soldiers, like Xiong Yitan, landed on the platform, but failed to seize the opportunity and rushed out of the platform and fell down.
Qian Xiaoxing was both happy and disappointed when he saw this scene. What he was happy was that this method could still throw the soldiers onto the platform. What he was disappointed was that he threw them up but it was untenable. This was not allowed in the battle.
Qian Xiaoxing thought of a way to change this situation, so he called Xiong Yitan and asked him to do what he told him. Xiong Yitan nodded and followed suit, and first closed the team and waited for the things to do and started training again.
Just as he was about to turn back, Zhang Yongchao hurriedly came to report: "Chief of Staff, Lin Guo has begun to attack Shandu City."
Qian Xiaoxing calculated that more than ten days have passed, and Lin Guolei has almost done the land of the mountain. This good show cannot be missed. Let the hot air balloons take off immediately and go to watch the game.
Two hot air balloons, carrying members of the observation group, Qian Xiaoxing, Lu Shengzhong, Shi Yeying, Sima Chuchu and others, floated towards the east gate of Shandu City.
A large mountain of earth has been piled up at the gate of Shandu East City. The top of the mountain is more than two meters higher than the wall of Shandu City. The Lin army behind the mountain is carrying bow and arrow weapons. In the Hu army's wall, dozens of towers are ready, but they are all placed in the city wall. It seems that Hu army also wants to give Lin army a surprise attack.
King Lin stood on the high tower of observation in the distance, looking at the tall earthen mountain in front of him. It took 50,000 people and worked for more than ten days to pile up, so he was very confident that he would defeat Shandu City.
Lin Jun’s war drums began to sound. Lin Jun, who was lying behind the mountain, came to the platform on the top of the mountain, began to draw bows and shoot arrows, and attacked Hu Jun on the city wall.
Hu Jun was prepared for it and took the shield to block the bow and arrow, but was suppressed by the continuous bow and arrow and had no power to counterattack.
Seeing the opportunity, Lin Jun rushed to the moat and boarded a long ladder to climb the city wall. On the hot air balloon in the sky, Qian Xiaoxing carefully checked the battle situation. Seeing that Hu Jun had not moved the wooden tower, it seemed that he was the same as before, he wanted to lure the enemy deeper and give his opponent some colors.
Sure enough, when a large number of Lin soldiers came to the moat and spread out on the city wall and began to hit the city wall on a large scale, Hu Jun's wooden tower was finally moved to the city wall. The wooden tower was four or five meters high, and it was two or three meters taller than the Tushan Mountain. The archers on the wooden tower were strictly selected and their shooting skills were superb, and they shot down a piece of Lin soldiers on the Tushan Mountain.
There was less suppression of Lin Jun's bow and arrows on the city wall. Everyone leaned out, threw down the rolling stones and wood, and hot oil torches, killing Lin Jun and screaming. The moat was full of corpses, and the dead were running back desperately.
Seeing that Lin Jun was beaten so hard, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help laughing. To be honest, he really didn't have any good feelings for Lin Jun. This is because King Lin is a villain who forgets his righteousness when he sees profit, so Qian Xiaoxing didn't want to pay much attention.
When King Lin saw the situation on the battlefield, he immediately reversed the situation when he saw Hu Jun moving to the wooden tower. His soldiers were screaming with screams of pain: "Retreat quickly, retreat for me!"
After a while, Lin Jun retreated except for those who were lying on the ground and unable to move. After counting the number of people, more than 10,000 casualties were injured.
"Damn it, Hu Jun is so cunning!" King Lin cursed angrily.
Next to King Lin, General Ma Hua replied: "The plan to pile up the soil was actually broken by Hu Jun. Master, what should we do next?"
Wang Lin said: "Shi State has attacked Shandu and suffered heavy losses. Our Lin State has also fought, and it has lost more than 10,000 yuan. Only the Si army has remained unmoved. Does Si State want us to fight with Lin State? He wants to get a bargain?"
Ma Hua nodded and said, "It is very likely that we will not move either?"
"Did Qian Xiaoxing really give up attacking Shan Capital?" Lin Wang guessed and said, "If Qian Xiaoxing doesn't fight, we won't fight anymore. But if you continue to raise the earthen mountains, I don't believe how high their wooden tower can be built!"
"Yes!" Ma Hua said this, but it is not easy to continue to pile up the soil and mountain. This is soil, and it will collapse when it reaches a certain height, unless the base is very large, but the energy it takes is really huge.
Qian Xiaoxing looked at Lin Wang's disgusting look on the hot air balloon and waved to him. Lin Wang looked at Qian Xiaoxing on his head, looking like he was causing trouble, and said angrily: "Qian Xiaoxing actually dares to make fun of me, let's see!"
Ma Hua reminded: "Emperor, Qian Xiaoxing is the prince consort of Lin. You won't attack him."
"Xiao Cui was forced to marry him. If he offended me, don't blame me for being merciless!" Wang Lin replied angrily.
Seeing that the good show had ended, Qian Xiaoxing sent a signal to get the hot air balloons back. The hot air balloons passed over Shandu City along the way. Lu Shengzhong said happily: "Shi Jun failed to siege the city, and Lin Jun also failed. It seems that we are the only one who comes."
Qian Xiaoxing was also very excited and replied: "The Undead Legion is training quickly. I can't see that it will be our army's turn to attack the city in five days."
Lu Shengzhong looked at the Shandu city below, and the streets were crisscrossed. This ancient capital that had been more than a hundred years was silent in the bleak atmosphere. He couldn't help but sighed a lot and said, "Seventh brother, do you remember the first time we met? It should be in the courtyard there. Our Si State came here to ask the Grand Tutor for his work, but he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to become the master here now. The changes are so great."
Qian Xiaoxing also nodded, recalling the warm and happy courtyard, he quarreled with Si Yingying every day and played mahjong at night. The days are indeed very nostalgic. Now that I think that it is no longer possible to live such a day, I feel very attached.
"If you want to avoid being bullied by others, strength is the key. With strength, Si Guo finally turned over. Hu Guo Imperial City, I'm here!" Qian Xiaoxing still felt a little yearning when he remembered the treasures and money in the imperial city.
Si Jun is still training, and Qian Xiaoxing also sends hot air balloons over Shandu City to investigate and obtain Hu Jun's latest developments. As the training gradually completes, Qian Xiaoxing also begins to formulate a siege plan with Lu Shengzhong.
The six thousand undead legions occupied the city wall, then lowered the suspension bridge and opened the city gate. The cavalry brigade led by the Dark Knights rushed into Shandu City and cleaned up the Hu army. The infantry brigade was sent to capture the imperial city. As long as you capture King Hu, the battle would basically end.
After the plan outline was formulated, Qian Xiaoxing held another military meeting to improve the details. If the plan for Flying Immortals in the Sky failed, the Hu army would also make corresponding defenses and would never have a second chance to use it, so it must be successful in one go.
All the generals have experienced the battles with Qian Xiaoxing, and they have made suggestions and opinions to improve and optimize the plan for the Flying Immortal in the Sky. It was not until each emergency had a response plan that Qian Xiaoxing nodded with satisfaction.
Lu Shengzhong was already so excited that he saw Qian Xiaoxing finally nodding and made a decision: "Okay, the plan for flying immortals in the sky is scheduled to be implemented tomorrow morning. Everyone will go back and prepare. Shandu City belongs to our State of Si!"
Everyone stood up and clasped their fists and said, "Yes!"
It was already January, and the winter was cold, and the rising sun was also illuminating the earth lazily. In the palace, King Hu got up early, and Shan was surrounded by the Three Kingdoms, which really made him unable to fall asleep. Although he was defending the city, two worries had been bothering Hukan.
One is that the Si army had not launched an attack yet. Is the Si army afraid to fight or was planning a conspiracy? Hu Kan was more willing to believe the latter, but he could not find out the latest information about Si army, which made Hu Kan really restless.
Another worry is that even if you can stick to it, the food and grass in the city will definitely be limited. What should you do when there is no food and grass? Hukan is very troublesome when he thinks of these. It seems that he must find a way to change such an unfavorable situation.
Hu Kan asked the followers beside him and said, "Sima Yiqing, is there still no news?"
The entourage was stunned for a moment, not sure why Hu Kan mentioned Sima Yiqing and replied: "Your Majesty, there is still no news. We have sent people to search for the places he has been to before. Your Majesty is looking for him..."
"Do you think I was going to kill him? Sima Yiqing is a pillar of the country. If you want to change the current situation, only Sima Yiqing may do it, but he actually abandoned Hu and ignored it. Is the number of days in Hu country that my Hu country is determined and will really perish?" Hu Kan sighed.
Suddenly, a soldier shouted outside: "Report!" In the blink of an eye, the soldier ran to Hukan and said: "King Hu, the Si army is moving!"
"Is the Si Jun going to attack the city?" Although Hu Kan was mentally prepared, he still stood up nervously.
The soldier replied, "I don't know what the Si Jun is doing, so please go and take a look at it yourself."
"Lead the way!" Hukan hurriedly went with the soldiers and rode a fast horse to the south gate of Shandu City.
Hu Kan climbed up the city wall quickly and saw that there was indeed Si Jun acting outside the city wall, but Si Jun was doing something, but he really didn't know what the Si Jun was doing.
