The expressions of all the people on the stage changed and they looked at the balloons. They saw that the balloons began to rise, from seven to eight feet above the ground to more than twenty feet. At this distance, the bows and arrows shooting towards the sky, One after another flew under the hanging basket, and some of them hit the bottom of the hanging basket weakly. However, the bottom layer of the hanging basket was added with a layer of iron sheet to prevent arrows. At this distance, even a strong bow could not hit the bottom of the hanging basket. The crossbows could no longer cause much substantial damage to these flying balloons. One hundred fifty or sixty balloons were just high above the ground, slowly floating past the front army and heading towards the direction of the Chinese military commander's platform.
Yu Yue stomped her feet bitterly: "How can this thing change its height? Our bows and arrows can't even shoot it!"
The fat on Liu Muzhi's face jumped, and he said solemnly: "That's what the Kongming Lantern is like. You can adjust the height by changing the burning firepower, but if it is too high, it will not be able to hit the ground accurately. Two It’s not easy to hit our handsome platform at a distance of ten feet.”
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "These Kongming balloons are coming towards our commander's platform. Once they get close, they will definitely lower their height to a distance of about six feet and throw them here. Wang Canjun took the prepared river mud Come out and quickly apply it on the handsome platform, be quick!"
Wang Zhen'e said in a deep voice: "I obey the order." He performed a military salute and quickly ran to the audience. Soon, hundreds of civilians carrying sandbags began to be as busy as ants, and the left-wing vehicle formation before The smell was terrible, and along with the smell of dead fish and rotten shrimps, it got into everyone's mouth and nose.
Yu Yue didn't vomit this time, and even smiled, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, with these, I won't be afraid of the enemy's fire attack."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Yu joins the army, I'm afraid this won't work. You have to smear the mud on your body. Otherwise, if the cup hits you, it will burn you. I'm afraid no one can save you by then."
Yu Yue's smile suddenly froze on his face and turned into a mournful expression: "Do you really need to wipe it off?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Yu Canjun, no one wants to wipe this thing, but water and fire are ruthless. Since the enemy wants to attack with fire, then we can only use this method to defend. If you don't want to wipe this mud, then you can protect the Queen, and Liu Changshi retreated to the audience together. The target of the thieves is us, the handsome platform. As long as we are not on the handsome platform, we should be safe."
Wang Shen'ai's voice sounded, revealing a firmness and perseverance: "Liu Cheqi, since I'm here for this battle, I will fight with you and all the soldiers to the end, as I said before. This place does not represent me alone, it represents His Majesty and the Jin Dynasty. If I escape before the battle, how can I set an example for the soldiers?"
Having said this, she stood up, pointed at the sea of smoke and fire at the front, and said loudly: "Of the soldiers in the front, which one is not in danger, which one is not fighting? My life is life, isn't it theirs?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Queen, it's different. This is where the enemy troops will concentrate their attacks, and it's also where I'm going to have a decisive battle with the black robe. You're not running away from the battle, you're just temporarily going somewhere else to encourage the soldiers. In this battle, you They are already good enough, Liu Changshi, and Yu Shenjun are brave enough, no one can tell that they escaped from the battle."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Jinnu, are you afraid that we can't help you by staying here and will distract you?"
Liu Yu shook his head: "Fat man, time is urgent, so don't say this. I am on top of the commander's platform. The reason why all the soldiers of the Divine Arrow Assault Battalion were transferred back in the previous rotation is to prevent this trick. You see... ………”
He pointed at the stage with his hand and saw Zhu Lingshi, Mao Dezu, Xu Chite and nearly two thousand archers under them. They had already smeared the mud from the river bottom on their bodies and faces. On the other side, Shen Tianzi , Shen Linzi, Shen Qingzhi and other Wu soldiers simply took off their armor and wiped river mud on their bodies. Suddenly, there were more than three thousand "black people" in the audience, with only white eyes and sharp blades in their hands. The sharp cold light proved their identity.
Liu Yu stood up and said to Hu Fan on the side: "Huzi, now you know why I want to keep you by my side. At the most critical time, using the strongest subordinates is the way to be a general."
Hu Fan smiled slightly, and took off the six-stone bow that he had been carrying on his back. He pulled it gently, and the bow string made of four animal sinews vibrated slightly, as if a dragon was roaring, a tiger was roaring, and a bear was roaring. And a cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "Thank you, Marshal, for giving me this opportunity, I'm ready!"
Liu Yu nodded: "Remember, Bottle used to be my best brother and the most accurate shooter. Before he left, he asked me again and again, saying that only your beard in the world can succeed him and become my shooter. Today , I hope you and the bottle can fight together, just like me..."
When he said this, he turned to look at Meng Long Fu who was sitting motionless on the seat on the side, his body covered with arrows. Tears filled his eyes: "The Raptor and I are also fighting the enemy side by side. Till death."
Hu Fan solemnly performed a military salute: "I'm going to arrange the arrow formation right away. In today's battle, I will discipline these thieves to make sure they never come back!"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Do you need to apply mud on yourself?"
Hu Fan laughed and said confidently: "Commander, we are archers. We don't need heavy armor and give up defense just for agility. If we are really hit by these cupping pots falling from the sky, it will be almost useless." The mud will only affect my flexibility. I wouldn't have been hit originally, but maybe I just had to dodge and I would have been hit."
Liu Yu nodded: "Okay, just do it your own way, be careful."
Hu Fan jumped and rushed down from the commander's platform. His voice came with the wind: "Commander, in this battle, General Tan and I will join forces to kill the thieves. Just watch it."
After sending Hu Fan away, Liu Yu calmly looked at Wang Shen'ai and others, and said: "Your Royal Highness, I asked the soldiers to step down to kill the thieves, and this is my position. As the coach, I can't Move lightly, now, in the name of the commander-in-chief of the entire army, I order you, Liu Changshi and Yu Shenjun to follow General Hu and General Shen’s men. This is not about escaping from the battle, this is about following my general order!"
Yu Yue opened her mouth, took the three-stone bow and arrows in her hand, and said: "Your Highness, since the commander-in-chief has given an order, we should obey it, why not..."
Wang Shen'ai suddenly said calmly: "Liu Yu, if it was not me but Murong Lan who was here at this time, would you let her leave?"
