Chapter 404: Destroy Han! (Thanks to the monthly tickets from brothers Beiwill, nuyoah, and Zhangquance~)

Facing Zhuge Liang's questioning, Lu Bu sneered:
"You and I are both smart people, so there's no need to be hypocritical here.

"Why don't you tell me that you attacked my Runan County for no reason last time?"

Zhuge Liang replied with great righteousness:

"That time, we were following the imperial decree to attack you, the traitor! We had a legitimate reason.

"What right do you have to attack our army this time?"

Lu Bu slowly uttered two words:
"Destroy Han!"

Just two simple words, but they made everyone present's eyelids jump!
The soldiers on Lu Bu's side were full of excitement, while the people on Zhuge Liang's side had gloomy eyes.

Obviously, Lu Bu's words seemed extremely outrageous to them!
Zhuge Liang's eyes swept over the people behind Lu Bu and noticed that this group of people were not surprised at all by Lu Bu's words.

It seems that Lu Bu did a very good job of brainwashing his subordinates.

Knowing that he could not destroy the enemy's morale by righteousness, Zhuge Liang said no more and immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare to defend the city. At the same time, he said to Lu Bu:
"I heard that you have created a powerful weapon that far exceeds contemporary technology. Why don't you let me open my eyes today?"

Lu Bu laughed secretly in his heart.

Have you ever seen the power of a gunpowder jar?

Although he has taken strict precautions.

But some of the gunpowder cans thrown on the battlefield did not explode or were taken away by the enemy.

It is impossible that Zhuge Liang had not studied it.

Since the other party wants to see it, let him see enough!

See how the enemy can withstand the attack formed by a combination of stones and gunpowder cans!
With Lu Bu's order, his ten thunder chariots were ready.

Huge stones and gunpowder cans half the size of a human head were thrown at the city wall at the same time.

But what Lu Bu did not expect was that at the same time as the thunder chariot sounded, Zhuge Liang and others suddenly retreated from the city wall.

Instead, the city gate suddenly opened, and another large group of bison rushed towards them!

Lu Bu frowned, obviously not expecting that Zhuge Liang would use the same method again.

And this time the bison charged at a closer distance and soon rushed towards the front row of troops!

Fortunately, with the previous experience, Lu Bu responded very quickly this time.

The Thunderbolt Chariot stopped throwing temporarily, the shield soldiers took the lead, and the spearmen followed closely behind.

This time there were only five or six hundred bison, but in front of the city gate, the target they could attack was more clear.

When the herd of bison approached, Lu Bu immediately ordered the shield soldiers to throw gunpowder cans first.

As the ceramic jars exploded on the bison, deep red fireworks were accompanied by thick black smoke and deafening explosions!
The bison that was hit head-on had its skin torn apart immediately, and it fell down with its body stiff, tripping many bison behind it.

After seeing the herd fall into chaos, Lu Bu did not wait for the bison to charge at him.

Instead, he ordered the shield soldiers and spearmen to advance together and charge towards the herd of bison!
This time, the bison herd's charge was not far enough.

In addition, it was not the first time that the soldiers on Lu Bu's side faced these crazy bison, so their fear was greatly reduced.

They even took the initiative to get close to these bison and launched attacks!

So when the front row of shield soldiers collided with the bison.

The shield soldiers were not sent flying like last time, but instead held off the herd of bison.

Then the spearmen immediately stabbed the bison's body with their spears through the gaps between the shields!

Moo--! ! Accompanied by painful roars, the bison in the front row fell to the ground one by one.

The bison in the back row can only bump into the buttocks of the bison in the front row.

The sharp blades tied to the horns cut hideous wounds on the buttocks of the bison in the front row, leaving skin and flesh exposed!

Standing on the city wall again, Zhuge Liang looked at Lu Bu's army's calm response, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

But the next moment, the corner of his mouth curled up in a playful arc.

Just when Lu Bu's army thought that this time the herd of bison could be easily dealt with.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from behind the herd!
Lu Bu, sitting on Red Hare, immediately looked behind the herd.

I saw chariots pulled by fully armored horses rushing towards this side rapidly!
These chariots are different from traditional three-man-driver chariots.

In addition to the horses being almost fully covered in armor, the chariot body at the rear actually has square metal shell panels!

It's like the front half of a car.

There are holes on the front metal plate specifically for mounting the Zhuge Crossbow.

There were also areas on both sides for soldiers to shoot arrows or extend their weapons.

The soldiers driving this chariot also wore thick armor.

Even if the tank is damaged, they can jump out of the tank and continue fighting at the first opportunity!
Looking at the twenty chariots he had never seen before, Lu Bu was filled with surprise!
This type of chariot is called "partial compartment chariot", but it was created by Ma Long, a famous general in the Jin Dynasty, based on the Eight Diagrams.

Who would have thought that Zhuge Liang in this life would have built the chariot that would be created by future generations decades in advance!

But considering that when Ma Long created this chariot, he also referred to the operating principles of the Eight Diagrams.

As the inventor of the Eight Diagrams Formation, it is reasonable for him to live another life and create this kind of side-carriage in advance!
After all, under the influence of his later generations, Zhuge Liang was forced to think of various ways to deal with the powder keg.

It is entirely possible that by accident, this chariot similar to a sidecar was invented.

I just don't know if this thing can withstand the bombardment of gunpowder cans!
As one van after another arrived at the front battlefield.

When the soldiers on Lu Bu's side saw this chariot that they had never seen before, they all looked at each other in surprise.

Before they knew how to deal with this thing, the Zhuge Crossbow on the side carriage had already shot out arrows!

The front-row soldiers who didn't react in time were hit in the body instantly, and dozens of them fell down!
The other soldiers, who were slow to react, quickly hid behind the shield soldiers and their shields.

However, at this time, these side carriages had already rushed towards the front row of shield soldiers!

Lu Bu couldn't help but be stunned when he saw these iron lumps that he saw for the first time.

Then he immediately ordered the front-row soldiers to smash these side carriages with gunpowder cans!
When the gunpowder canister fell on the iron plate on the surface of the chariot, a sharp roar immediately erupted!

Just when Lu Bu thought that these side-carriages that would not be invented until decades later would not be able to withstand the bombardment of gunpowder cans.

When the thick smoke dissipated, the scene that emerged shocked Lu Bu!
Because although a layer of the outermost iron plate of these side carriages was blown off, there was actually another layer of iron plate inside!
After all, tanks are different from people.

The load limit for humans is very low, but the load limit for a chariot is much higher!

Even a gunpowder can can easily blow through one or two layers of iron plates.

But as long as the iron plate is thick enough, the power of the gunpowder can will eventually reach its limit.

And since Zhuge Liang dared to show off this side-carriage, he must have tested its endurance!

At present, even gunpowder cans are not effective in blowing up these sidecars.

This Zhuge Wuhou really gave him another surprise...
