Instead... I ran into a problem!
Chapter 746: The Birth of the Cannon
"My lord! If we attack by force, I'm afraid many generals will be lost! As a big border city, Baitan's defensive power is indeed astonishing!"
Cheng Yu clasped his hands to report, still holding a head in his hand, it was Wuhuan Shanyu's in that building.
Outside Baitan City, Cao Ying's army is overwhelming.
Following the death of that building, Yuan Shang, a high-ranking official who saw the situation was not good, immediately led his troops back to the city.
Looking at the tall city, everyone was in trouble.
"Don't you have any good ideas? Zijing Zhongde? You two are counselors, find a way!"
"Wu Zhan has already sent a message, saying that Ta Dun's offensive is very fierce and the pressure is great!"
"I think he wants to surround Wei and save Zhao, but as long as we are fast, we can eat both ends!"
Cao Cao frowned and looked at the two with a disappointed expression.
Cheng Yu and Lu Su retreated tactically.
"My lord, do you still remember that we are counselors? Even we thought we were generals!"
"You want to attack this city quickly, I'm afraid... it won't work! We didn't bring a catapult this time."
"If you don't want to break through the city by force, you have to cut off the water source and kill them with thirst! But it will take many days..."
The two felt a little melancholy.
The opponent's troops are high-ranking cadres, and they have some skills.
And the opponent has a lot of guards, so it is not so easy to fight.
Cao Cao sighed: "What about Fengxiao? This kid is treacherous, maybe there is no way."
The two looked at each other and pointed to the hut.
"That guy... drank all the montmorillonite and water Yuan Yi gave him the day before yesterday, and now... he can't urinate, and has been standing and shaking in the hut for two days."
Cao Cao was taken aback when he heard this: "Why is he drinking so much? Didn't Yuan Yi say one spoonful at a time? This guy is out of his mind!"
Cheng Yu grinned, looking gloating.
"He said...a long illness requires strong medicine...so..."
Cao Cao rolled his eyes angrily, he wanted to take a look at Guo Jia's head.
Is it sand on the left and water on the right? Shake it and it becomes a sand sculpture!
"Made! It's unreliable! My son-in-law has to come!"
"Come on! Go to Luping and invite my son-in-law!"
Cao Cao yelled, and immediately the Spike elite went to Junping.
Not to mention Cheng Yu and the others, in fact Cao Cao...he has nothing to do with this city.
The opponent has [-] troops left, and they are defending with all their strength. If they want to attack by force, they must pay several times their strength.
After storming this city, Cao Ying's combat power will be greatly reduced, and the decisive battle will become difficult.
As for cutting off the water, it is too slow, and it will be cold forever.
Cao Cao can only pin his hopes on Xia Houzhe now.
After all...the other side never disappoints.
……
Langya hurried back to Luping.
When Xia Houzhe received the notice, he scolded Xie Te angrily!
He is now lying on the training ground every day, holding a Sprite, watching the turbulent waves!
Also, Lu Lingqi and Zhang Ning massaged him, and Ma Yunlu beat his back. Are you unhappy?
"Old Cao, he's such a big man, and he needs me to fight in a battle. It really doesn't make me worry!"
"Do you really think I'm here to fight? I'm here to travel with public funds!"
Xia Houzhe sighed and got up from the reclining chair.
Seeing this, Lu Lingqi asked curiously: "Husband, are you going to stand up?"
"I still remember... the last time you cut off the sword of the lewd Ma Chao with one sword, you were so handsome at that moment! I like it so much!"
Lu Lingqi still remembered the beauty of that sword, which really fascinated her.
I felt that Xia Houzhe at that moment was such a man!He was able to protect her!
Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes and gave Lu Lingqi a headache.
"Silly girl, the times have changed, who is still playing swords and guns with you!"
"Let's go, take this group of sisters with us, let's go to Luping, Master Ben will let you see what it means to be awesome!"
Xia Houzhe greeted her, and led the army of six hundred women to Baitan.
When a group of people arrived the next day, Cao Cao was already waiting desperately.
"Son-in-law! Why did you come here! And... what is this group of women's soldiers here for?"
"What else can I do? Cultivate them! All of them have such strong willpower that they would rather train until they passed out than quit. Can I ignore such talents?"
Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes.
He brought this group of women here this time, in addition to letting them see the bloody war.
I also want to show them how to use the weapons of the Phantom team in the future!
Cao Cao didn't care about it either, he just thought he was bringing the Niangzi army to show off.
"Brother Xian, look at what's going on in this city? Is there any way? I don't want to attack by force. They are all my brothers. My heart hurts every time one of them dies!"
Cao Cao pointed to the soldiers behind him.
If they could live, who would go to battle to die?
Is it true that the soldiers are not afraid of rushing to the city?
Xia Houzhe took a look through the binoculars, and he also saw Yuan Shang and Gao Gan bragging on the tower.
"Made! You guys like bragging? Later, I will let you be so awesome!"
"Leave it to me. Within today, I will definitely win this city! But... don't blame me if I spoil it!"
Xia Houzhe looked confident, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an evil smile.
After hearing this, Cao Cao, Cheng Yu, Lu Su and others were stunned, looking at him in disbelief.
"One day? Didn't you brag about your attributes again? Although we killed 4 people, there are still [-] people left!"
"Ten to encircle, five to attack, double to fight, few to defend, less to avoid!"
"Lan Xiang's students all know this truth! How could it be easily won? Besides, we are all proficient in the art of war, so we can't think of any way!"
Xia Houzhe snapped his fingers, put on his sunglasses, and held a cigarette dangling from his mouth.
The cynical look made Cheng Yu want to reason with him...
"Small problems, just look at me!"
"To break this city, a certain... only needs one thing!"
"All powerlessness comes from insufficient firepower!"
After finishing speaking, with a wave of his right hand, a big guy with a strange shape appeared in front of everyone.
A huge iron platform with a three to four meter long steel pipe placed on it...
It looks like...ahem!
Cao Cao and the others looked at their crotch, and then took a few glances at Xia Houzhe's big guy.
"Son-in-law! This thing... what is it for?"
Xia Houzhe touched the iron lump, and there was tenderness in his eyes, just like looking at his own child.
"This...is a good thing that I spent many days making. It's called a cannon!"
"cannon?"
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they had never seen this thing before.
"What is the use?"
Xia Houzhe chuckled and put on his sunglasses.
"Of course, use it to blast open the city walls or gates!"
"You can understand it as an enhanced version of the catapult!"
Hearing this, everyone was disappointed for a while, and no one believed Xia Houzhe's words.
The Shenji Battalion, which can penetrate heavy armor, can't break through the city wall, and the powerful catapult can't smash it.
How can it be done with just this iron pipe?
"Forget it, brother, if you have no choice but don't entertain me, I won't blame you!"
"Why...why prevaricate me like this?"
Cheng Yu and the others also sighed, maybe this was Xia Houzhe's bragging in order to save face.
"Yuanyi, forget it! Put it away, the White Sandalwood City is as solid as gold."
"Hundreds of catapults can't be smashed together, let alone your stuff."
Although the city these days is made of soil and bricks, it is also very strong!
Just an iron pipe, how can it break?Isn't this idiot's dream?
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Xia Houzhe sneered.
"When the time comes, don't hug my thighs and beg me to fuck you!"
After finishing speaking, he waved to the Six Hundred Detachment Army and whistled again.
"Phantom members, assemble!"
With an order, 600 people immediately lined up and stood at attention from short to tall.
"Count the numbers!"
"1.2.3... 600! Report to the officer, the phantom should reach [-], but it actually reached [-]! The report is over!"
"Return to the team!"
Xia Houzhe shouted angrily.
Seeing the neatness of the women's army, all the generals present showed strange expressions.
It has a bit of an army flavor, but... it seems to be a little different from the current army!
"Listen up, Phantom members, from now on... you don't practice guns, don't practice swords, practice cannons for me!"
"You are the first artillery of the Eastern Han Dynasty!"
Xia Houzhe roared loudly.
The Phantom team stood at attention and responded: "Yes! Sir!"
Although they didn't know what the cannon was for, the six hundred women still responded loudly.
Their chief said that no matter what orders their superiors give, they just need to obey!
Let them stick their buttocks, and they must not squat.
Xia Houzhe tapped the cannon and prepared to load the cannonball.
The cannon was modeled after the Krupp cannon, but shrunk down by him.
The Krupp cannon is known as the king of artillery. It was not until the Qing Dynasty more than 1000 years later that it was owned by purchasing from other countries.
