System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

"Ok!"

"Come, go to the central camp and inform the lord immediately."

"Niu Gai, Qin Xu, Liang Gang, and Le Jiu, follow me to the village gate."

Cao Ren picked up his weapon and gave orders to his four generals.

"Ahhh~ I obey your orders!"

"Ha~ Obeyed."

Every one of them was yawning with tears in their eyes.

broken!

Seeing this scene, Cao Ren secretly said that something was wrong.

Everyone was so sleepy that they couldn't even display 70% of their usual strength.

Cao Ren was very worried, but there was nothing he could do.

The only option now is to lead the troops to guard the camp gate and wait for Cao Cao to find a solution.

After all, Lao Cao and some generals had slept from the afternoon until midnight, so they could always get some sleep.

By the time Cao Ren arrived at the west gate, Dong's army had already begun to suppress the camp with large-scale arrows.

One is to deter, and the other is to protect the army's supervision of equipment production.

bang bang bang-

Some fire arrows and gunpowder arrows mixed in fell into the camp, and from time to time there were bursts of noise one after another.

"Is the bonfire lit?"

Xu Rong looked at the camp in front of him and shouted loudly.

"The birth is complete, the birth is complete!"

"We can now use large-scale fire arrows."

Pang De responded, and at this time more than twenty bonfires had been lit behind the archers.

"All officers, listen to my command. Immediately lead your archers and use all your flaming arrows. Shoot high and far."

Upon hearing this, Xu Rong immediately gave orders.

Fire arrows may not be very powerful when attacking a city, but they are much more powerful when attacking a camp.

The rocket is covered with a kerosene bag, and as long as it falls on flammable objects such as tents and wood, it can generally ignite a flame.

Even if someone poured water on it beforehand, the flames could still be ignited with the help of a large number of rockets and kerosene.

As the saying goes, a big fire cannot have wet firewood, this is exactly what it means.

Moreover, even if there were wood soaked in water, what about the wood used for the city walls? What about the military tents?

If the wood of the camp is soaked, it will become slippery, and the defenders will not be able to stand on it to fight back against the enemy outside the camp, and military tents are even more impossible.

Huhu——

Fire rained down from the sky, this time there were nearly ten thousand arrows.

The rockets fell into Cao's camp. Although nearly 60% of them missed the flammable materials, 40% still landed on tents and wood.

"Fight back, fight back immediately with the trebuchets."

"Bed crossbow launch!"

"Archers in the camp, fire back quickly."

"Immediately dispatch some civilians to put out the fire."

Cao Ren roared loudly and kept giving orders to fight back.

The role of the laborers is very important.

Not only can they clean the battlefield, make fires and cook, repair camps, set up camps, transport food and grass, but they also have to do some work that is too busy on the battlefield.

die?

Who cares whether he lives or dies.

The civilians were just a group of conscripted laborers who didn't even get paid.

Boom boom boom——

Several catapults launched stones towards Dong's army.

However, the trebuchet is more of a deterrent than a practical one.

The accuracy is extremely low. If you can hit one stone out of ten, that's because you are accurate.

Some experienced veterans were able to predict where the stone would land the moment they saw it flying out.

When the stone fell to the ground, only one unlucky and inexperienced person failed to dodge it and had his spine broken, dying on the spot.

"When will our catapults be ready?"

"If we wait any longer, the enemy will crush us!"

Xu Rong cursed angrily and turned to look at the laborer who was dawdling.

"It's coming, it's coming soon."

"immediately!"

The craftsmen and laborers answered hurriedly, and their hands' movements suddenly accelerated.

"After setting it up, push it to both sides!"

"Fire the cannonballs at the sides of the camp, don't attack the gate!"

"If we can't hit the gate, it's easy to block the battering rams. Send them to both sides to suppress the enemy archers and destroy the buildings in the enemy camp."

Xu Rong was experienced and gave the order immediately.

The accuracy of the catapult is not better than that of the trebuchet. After being improved, it has a slight advantage in range at most, and it can move slowly to adjust its position.

If the force is not strong enough and the stone falls on the way to attack the enemy's camp gate, the battering ram will be useless.

If that were the case, we would have to send people to move the stones under the rain of arrows.

As for why Cao's army did not block the door.

There are so many gates in the military camp, can they all be blocked?

If that were the case, Dong Jun would laugh out loud.

Their Cao army immediately became a turtle in a jar. The Dong army only needed to set up equipment in various directions outside the camp to bombard them without any harm?
