This is Li Zhao's temporary idea, and of course it is also an effective way to deal with the current predicament.
Eighty thousand city defense troops can completely surround Shanglin Garden. Even if they don't attack, Shanglin Garden will be trapped to death; if they attack, they can attack from four directions, and the number of 1,000 elites and 500 artillerymen is really great. If there are too few, if the four sides are taken into consideration separately, the strength of the troops will be greatly weakened, and there is a certain risk that they will not be able to sustain it.
However, it is different when fighting in the air. No matter how many people the city defense force has, throwing grenades in the air, more people will be a burden.
As for how to fight in the air, you can buy hot air balloons from department stores to carry people to fight in the air.
As for the weapons of the city defense army, the range of the crossbow is somewhat high, but if the hot air balloon is allowed to fly higher, no matter how powerful the crossbow is, it will not be able to reach it. However, throwing grenades in the air has no limit on the height, which is a great advantage.
Of course, their artillery is also somewhat powerful, with a range of 500 steps, not much different from a crossbow. I believe that it will not pose a threat to hot-air balloons beyond 800 steps, and hot-air balloons can fly at a height of 1,000 meters. above.
One thousand meters, an unreachable distance.
This is a side-killing combat method.
"Air combat?" The guard looked at the sky, unable to understand what the young master said, but how could he guess the young master's thoughts, so he did not dare to ask more questions and continued to explore the news.
Li Zhao hurried back, first found Meng Yi, and asked him to move the 500 red cannons to the city wall and disperse them to all sides to prepare for the attack.
The range of more than two miles is enough to deter the Qin army, but the number is too small, and they have to be spread out in all directions. This is a fly in the ointment. If the Qin army had not discovered the power of the red cannon, the strike intensity would have been considerable. Yes, but as time went by, they found out the range of the red cannon and avoided it far away, and its power was greatly reduced.
Of course, this can also deter them from attacking rashly for a period of time.
But over time, it may not be effective. Being too dispersed is the weakness of the red cannon. As long as they seize this weakness to launch an attack, there will always be a time when they can break through the defense.
But with the air heater, it was different to attack in the air. The range of more than two miles blocked the Qin army three miles away. The air heater took the opportunity to throw grenades in the air, attacking in two directions. The direction was fatal, but it killed them without leaving their armor. ?
Even if they have the Crouching Tiger Cannon, they have no chance to perform.
After figuring this out, Li Zhao immediately asked Xun Wuquan to come to the testing site. However, he came alone first and found an uninhabited place to enter the system department store to find a suitable hot air balloon.
A few quarters of hours later, a hundred hot air balloons were purchased.
The hot air balloons were placed aside like parachutes, with heat machines and bamboo baskets underneath. He deliberately bought a bamboo basket large enough to hold more grenades, but not too much, considering the size of the hot air balloon. Carrying capacity.
When Wu Quan arrived, he was attracted by these one hundred strange-shaped things and quickly asked Li Zhao: "Master, what is this?"
"hot air balloon!"
Li Zhao didn't have time to explain so much to him, so he hurriedly told him to find a hundred guards.
He originally wanted to hire two hundred escorts, but considering the limited number of escorts and the load of the hot-air balloon, he changed it to one person per hot-air balloon.
Currently, there is a very short supply of guards in Shanglin Garden. Most of them are sent out to inquire for information, and only a small number stay behind. Even so, they have to maintain the order of Shanglin Garden, and also inquire about the surrounding situation. It can be said that they have no skills at all.
But the young master's anxious instructions made Wu Quan dare not neglect him and left in a hurry, bringing a hundred people with him half an hour later.
These one hundred people were all well-trained guards. They were all strong and their eyes were bright. Li Zhao was very satisfied, so he gathered them all and gathered them together. He wanted to explain how to use the hot air balloon.
"Master, I don't have time to tell you that much now, but what I want to tell you is that the Qin army is about to surround Shanglinyuan. I, Shanglinyuan, have encountered an unprecedented crisis."
Everyone's expressions darkened, and everyone became indignant. If Shang Linyuan was threatened, they were threatened. They accepted Lin Yuan's kindness and would protect Shang Lin Yuan Zhouquan even if they died.
"But young master, I cannot just watch Shanglinyuan being threatened. We must resist and let the Qin army know our unyieldingness and that we are not easy to bully."
"Yes, we are not easy to bully. We will defend Shanglinyuan to the death."
The guards were inspired and all of them were angry.
"Yeah! Now, here's your chance to defend me in Shanglinyuan."
Li Zhao raised his hand and clenched his fists in the air. The guards also clenched their fists and shouted: "Shanglin Garden must be defended."
But when he shouted like this, he seemed a little helpless.
They also heard the news of the Qin army's attack. They heard that there were as many as 80,000 people and they had artillery. On the other hand, they were only a handful of more than a thousand people. Although they had big weapons, they were too few in number! Being stretched thin.
Even if they could defeat the Qin army one to ten, they would not be able to defeat the Qin army because the numbers were too disparate.
However, what Li Zhao said next made their eyes light up, and their confidence soared in vain.
"Have you seen this thing?" Li Zhao pointed to the hot air balloon behind him, "It is your guarantee for defending my Shanglinyuan, the hot air balloon."
"This ball allows you to fight the Qin army in the air."
Fighting in the air?
Everyone was confused. They had heard about fighting in the water, fighting with artillery, fighting with crossbows, and siege fighting, but they had never heard of fighting in the air.
How to fight in the air? Not to mention that they can't fly, even if they can fly, they can't pose a threat to 80,000 people! Unless they have a big killer.
But the problem is, they can't fly at all, even if they have powerful weapons, they can't do anything.
Wu Quan was also full of questions. He only knew that the thing behind him was called a hot air balloon, but he didn't know how to use the hot air balloon or what its function was. However, he didn't talk too much and listened carefully. He knew that the young master would say it.
Sure enough, the young master's next words made their confidence soar again.
"The biggest function of this hot air balloon is to ascend to the sky. Have you seen the bamboo basket?" Pointing to the bamboo basket under the heat machine, "You can enter it, then start the heat machine, and the hot air balloon will expand and take you to the sky. .”
He pointed to the heat machine again.
Everyone understood that the young master meant that he could fly by sitting on the bamboo basket and activating the iron knot.
This seems like a fantasy. Is there anything that can fly in the world?
This hot air balloon is not a big bird.
But this is what the young master said, and no one will doubt it. In fact, the young master has brought too many miracles, and he should be able to fly! Although they have never met.
Wu Quan was very interested. He was the first to step forward to Li Zhao, cupped his hands and said, "Master, let Wu Quan give it a try."
He noticed everyone's confused expressions and wanted to demonstrate, even though he had never sat on such a thing.
"Forget it, I'll let you try."
Li Zhao patted Wu Quan on the shoulder, let him enter the bamboo basket, and asked him to press the switch. Soon, the heat machine started, igniting a raging fire, and the heat instantly rose.
After the continuous blessing of hot air, the hot air balloon expanded rapidly and rose into the sky.
This scene was so strange that everyone's eyes never left the sky for a moment, looking at the big and swollen thing.
When the hot air balloon expanded to a certain extent, it started to stagger. The rope was quickly tightened, and then it slowly left the ground and rose into the air. After reaching a certain level, Wu Fist increased its size at Li Zhao's command. increased horsepower.
The next moment, the bamboo basket was also driven, rising as the hot air balloon rose.
"It's flying, it's flying, it really can fly."
When everyone looked at it, everyone looked shocked.
They had never thought that people could fly, and they had never seen that a bird could soar without the wings of a big bird. This young master was so capable and powerful, and every thing he came up with was so shocking.
"You can fly higher."
