Chapter 859: Divine Manifestation
"If it's just a hard rush, the loss will definitely be huge, which they won't be unexpected." Goyle also looked uncertain, and looked at General Ku'er on the side as he spoke.
"What did General Muren say?" Hu Xiao'er didn't answer immediately, after several bloody battles, he already knew that mercenaries were not easy to mess with, and he also understood that among the generals under his command, Mu Ren knew the enemy in front of him the most, and he had always attached great importance to his words.
Mu Ren squinted his eyes slightly, also puzzled. When the general asked, he replied, "Look at this plane, are they really preparing to attack the city?" Could it be that there is some other way in mind, or that there are plenty of firearms? ”
It's no wonder that Muren would say that. Although the iron cavalry of the mercenary army is strong, but the siege is not a charge, and the role that the cavalry can play is still very limited, as long as the head is not kicked by the donkey, it will definitely not use the cavalry to attack the city. It seems that there can only be another reason, they have prepared enough firearms, whether it is artillery for bombing the city or muskets fired from long distances, which can put a lot of pressure on the Tatar army.
As soon as he heard that the other party might attack the city with firearms, Ku Xiao'er's face became very ugly. The other party only used two shots to blow open the city gate, which really scared them. Fortunately, the facts told them that such powerful firearms seemed to be rare in the new army, which faintly suppressed their anxiety. But now it seems that the other side is ready, if so, they really don't know how to face and solve the problem in the face of the artillery that they can't see at all, but can bring them great lethality.
"The order goes down, all the soldiers are ready for battle with armor, and all the sharpshooters in the army are on the tower." Ku'er's face turned red, and before he knew what the mercenaries were going to do, he decided to be prepared.
In the city of Taru, the Tatar iron cavalry was also ready for battle, and when they were all ready, the attack of the mercenary side still did not start, but slowly came to the place two miles below the city, and waited in formation.
"What the hell are they going to do?" Standing behind a battlement above the tower, he looked at the new army that was waiting for him, and his face became more and more confused. Even if the other party has firearms to open the way, but if you want to capture the prepared Dalu City, it will also need to pay a lot of price, this truth The other party's general will not know, but they still put on this posture, what do they rely on?
In fact, not only the Tatar army, but even the soldiers of the new army under the city were also very puzzled. They couldn't figure out what the army was doing with such a formation. Is it to storm the city?
It is not impossible to use cavalry as an infantry envoy, but it is a great waste, and most importantly, the loss will not be small. The number of the new army was only limited in number compared to the Tatar army defending the city, and it remains to be said whether the city could be captured after such a loss. Paying such a big price to do something that I don't know if I can accomplish it, it's no wonder that the soldiers below are muttering.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the demeanor had reached the third level, and many of the soldiers had become numb. It was more than an hour to stand here, but there was no order to attack the city, which made the soldiers who were originally worried about it relax a little. There are even people who think that they are smart, thinking that this is just a training exercise, just to create pressure on the Tatar army defending the city, but in fact there is no combat intent.
Such thoughts became more and more prevalent in the hearts of the soldiers, and everyone thought that this was just knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, in order to put greater psychological pressure on the enemy. And at this time, most of the soldiers were even thinking about what to eat for lunch, when suddenly a very surprised voice sounded in the army, "Oh my God, look, what is that in the sky?" There seems to be someone on it! ”
This shout was like throwing a boulder on the surface of a calm lake, and suddenly set off layers of waves, and everyone couldn't help but look up and squint at the sky after hearing this urgent shout, and then ten huge hot air balloons appeared above their heads, and with the wind continued to blow, and slowly moved forward, looking at the direction of the forward, it was the land of Taru City.
"This is a fetish? This must be the manifestation of the Immortal Heaven. "In the new army, there were many Mongolian warriors, after seeing this undreaming spectacle at first, they immediately dismounted and knelt on the ground, chanting their own language, kowtowing their heads, and saying something with tears in their eyes.
The deputy commander said goodbye, and he was looking up to see this scene, and then out of instinct, he was ready to dismount and kneel down to pray, after all, he was born here, grew up here, although he was already a senior general of the mercenary, but some things in his bones will not be easily changed.
It was also at this time that Hu Mang, who was riding on the horse, reached out and pressed her shoulder and shook her head gently.
"Commander, what are you doing here? Can't you see that this is a long-born manifestation? She Bei's face was a little excited and a little red, because he felt that Hu Mang's big hand was very powerful, and it made him feel that he couldn't move.
"Deputy commander, don't get excited, calm down. What if I say it's not an immortal manifestation? Look closely, see if there is a five-star flag on it. Hu Mang's expression was as usual, but the strength in his hand still did not decrease by a point.
"What?" This frightened him, he was a little confused, and then he tried to look at the sky, and found that there was sunlight shining, and he couldn't see clearly, so he simply picked up the telescope hanging around his neck to look, and this look, his face was pale, and his body was stunned If it weren't for the help of the tiger, I was afraid that this would have fallen under the horse.
"It's... How is this possible? How can there be our five-star flag on it? "Don't look puzzled, a look of doubt, but more of a fear. Could it be that the Sixth Young Master is really the messenger of the Immortal Heaven, he appeared in the grassland, and it was the order of the Immortal Heaven to rescue this place and unify it?
"Hey." Hu Mang let out a long sigh. Shebei is very smart and wise, which even the sixth young master has praised. But people are still human beings after all, and the state of the unknown is no different from ordinary people.
According to his intentions, Hu Mang can indeed be said to be a manifestation of the gods, and in this way, the morale of the warriors below will definitely jump to the peak. But after all, he is not an ordinary warrior, and there are some things that cannot be hidden from him, and it is time to tell him the truth.
"Deputy Commander, this is not a miracle, but an air force sent by the God of War, and they are not here to appear to be some gods, but to help us attack Taru City." Hu Mang finally told the truth.
It's just that this kind of truth is too unbelievable, even if it is as smart as parting, this meeting is still incomprehensible. First opened his eyes wide, and then while digesting these contents, he said with a shocked face: "The military commander said that all this is arranged by the sixth young master?" Can the sixth young master let people fly into the sky? ”
"Well, so to speak. As the Sixth Young Master taught, with the help of other objects, people can ascend to the sky. Hu Mang sighed heavily, and then there was a look of worship, this is their young master, their master, doing anything is so earth-shattering, unprecedented.
There was still some disbelief in his heart, but Hu Mang said it so formally, he had no reason not to believe it. The most important thing is that with the help of the telescope, he can already faintly see the figures of soldiers in military uniforms on the hot air balloon, the only difference between them and himself is that the color is not army green, but sky blue.
Could it be that this is really the arrangement of the sixth young master, can he really let people fly into the sky? Although she already admired the sixth young master in her heart, she already thought that this person was the most capable person in the ages, and seemed to know everything and everything. But looking at this scene in the sky, he still had to admit that he still underestimated the Sixth Young Master and the God of War after all.
Knowing the approximate reason, he knelt on the ground without the other steppe warriors, shouting to the gods. But the rest of the warriors were already boiling, kneeling on the ground one by one, praying incessantly, saying some respect and worship for the gods. There are even some people who simply take this opportunity to say what they want to bury in their hearts.
Most of the soldiers dismounted and knelt on the ground, and at the rear of the army, Wang Sizheng led a group of teachers and students from the Yang Family Academy. No! Now it should be said that the teachers and students of Shijo Academy are watching this scene from a distance.
Wang Si also saw the scene of a hot air balloon taking off for the first time, and it was impossible to say that he was not excited. It's just that in teaching, I have already talked about relevant knowledge, so this excitement was quickly suppressed. He has now confirmed one point, that is, what the Sixth Young Master teaches is not something that is unrealistic in the eyes of others, but something that can be put into practice after hard work.
Think about it, even people can be sent to the sky, so what else can't be done? What else won't come true?
"Let's take a good look, all of you. Don't always say in class that the things recorded in the book are not true, and some of the records are simply not realizable, what else do you have to say now? Taking this opportunity, Wang Si, the first vice president, looked at everyone, and he looked like a frog at the bottom of a well.
This time, no one objected to Wang Si's words. The facts are right in front of you, what else is there to say, everyone can go to heaven, so what else can't be done?
"Dean, we were wrong, our understanding was wrong, our vision is still too short-sighted, and we will definitely study hard when we return to the academy in the future."
