Iron Dynasty

wait.

Looking at Wubao Xiao Ming in front of him, he gave an order.

At this time, a figure who seemed to be the leader appeared on the city wall of Ubao, and they were looking at the Qingzhou Army who were reinforced below.

At this time, Chen Fu pointed to the man on the city wall and said: Your Highness, this person is Liu Chuang, the leader of this gang of gangsters. His father participated in the conspiracy of Lotus Pond against His Highness. He killed the Liu family Wubao and killed most of the Liu family's tribes, but he still let this Liu Chuang run away.

The dazzling sunlight made Xiao Ming narrow his eyes. After the barbarians in the lotus pond were annihilated, the news was blocked. At the same time, Xiao Ming ordered the arrest of the nobles who participated in the rebellion.

At that time, many aristocrats were annihilated by the army before they could react. If the Liu family had been on guard at that time, this Wubao would not have been taken down by the Cangzhou army so easily.

According to Lu Fei, at that time, Chen Fu also used the method of cooperating with the inside and the outside, and pretended to send someone to buy food in Ubao, and suddenly attacked at the gate of Ubao to seize the Ubao.

Unexpectedly, a month later, this Wubao was taken back by the Liu family in the same way.

The old way is to persuade them to surrender to delay the time, so that they can be neglected.

This gang of gangsters is different from the Sun family or the Wang family's trilogy. At that time, it was possible to persuade them to surrender. However, these gangsters were still resisting after they had exterminated the barbarians for so long, indicating that they already had the idea of ​​fighting him to the death.

Moreover, it is estimated that these gangsters are all children of the wealthy clan. Unlike the Wang family and the Sun clan, there are many servants in it. These servants are dissatisfied with the wealthy clan themselves, but they are only under the coercion of the wealthy clan, and it is easy to persuade them to surrender.

It was different for these noble children, and persuading them to surrender would not have any effect on them.

Chen Fu responded, and went out to the front to start shouting to the bandits on the tower, meaning nothing more than surrender or kill and other common words.

Just before he could finish speaking, a sharp arrow suddenly shot down from the city gate and slanted at his feet.

Niu Ben glanced at the city tower and said, There are experts in this gang of bandits who can shoot arrows so far.

Estimated the distance between the tower and Chen Fu, at least 230 meters, and even if the barbarian bow and arrow range is only about 180 meters, it can be seen that there is an archer with amazing arm strength.

Then, Niu Ben suddenly said to Lu Fei, Go get my bow and arrow.

Hearing the words, Luo Xin smiled and said, These gangsters dare to use an axe in front of the old general. Who doesn't know that the old general's bows and arrows are a must for the forbidden army.

I haven't practiced for five years, and I don't know how it is now. Just don't lose face in front of His Highness. Niu Ben said, but the confidence in his mouth could be heard by others.

Xiao Ming smiled and said, The old general's archery is famous all over the world, please!

Niu Ben nodded, and took the bow and arrow from Lu Fei at this time. Unlike other Qingzhou army archers, the bow and arrow in Niu Ben's hand was obviously much stronger, and at a glance, he knew that it would take a lot of strength to pull it.

At this time, I saw Niu Ben didn't dismount from the horse, and directly bent the bow and arrow on the horse. With a whoosh sound, the bow and arrow flew out as quickly as lightning.

Before everyone could react, a scream suddenly sounded from the city gate, and the archer who had just provoked fell from the city gate, with an arrow stuck in his chest.

Okay! Lu Fei and Luo Xin shouted at the same time.

Chen Fu was stunned. He still didn't know who the bull was. After all, the bull couldn't come for a few days, and he couldn't get it in Cangzhou.

And the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army were also surprised at this time. When this veteran first arrived, many soldiers were unconvinced. After all, in their eyes, Lu Fei was the commander of the Qingzhou Army. ’

Now being taken by such a person whom they have never seen before, many people feel uneasy.

But at this time, they realized that His Royal Highness King Qi did not use people for nothing.

The corners of Xiao Ming's mouth rose slightly. After two consecutive bad news, his mood finally improved. At least the veteran Niuben was well-deserved, and dealing with barbarian cavalry was like having a strong general.

The bandits on the city gate were obviously frightened by Niuben's move, and the few people who showed up immediately hid behind the battlements.

Generally speaking, the range of the bow and arrow is basically about 180 meters, and the effective range is basically about 120 meters. Within this effective range, the bow and arrow can effectively kill the enemy, and this is still a projectile, while the bow and arrow can effectively kill the enemy. The power lies precisely in the projectile.

Niu Ben can use the throw to kill the enemy at this distance. This is the real horror. Without decades of practice, it is impossible to do it.

However, it can also be seen that Niuben's arm strength is different from ordinary people.

How is it? If you want me to say, bows and arrows are much more powerful than crossbows. Luo Xin said at this time: Your Highness, your Qingzhou army is equipped with a large number of crossbows instead of bows and arrows. I don't agree with this.

At this moment, Niu Ben handed the bow and arrow to Lu Fei, and said with a snort, Your father doesn't know how to teach you. It's only right for His Highness to equip the army with a large number of crossbow arrows. This archer must be at least three or five years old. Training can only be used on the battlefield, and this single crossbow only needs a little training, the crossbow is much more useful than the bow and arrow when defending the city, and within a short distance, the crossbow arrow is stronger than the bow and arrow, and it shoots accurately.

Luo Xin was scolded, and Lu Fei was secretly having fun, looking like he was gloating.

In fact, he didn't understand Xiao Ming's approach at first, but he gradually realized it later. Now that the barbarians are going south, they don't have time to train archers.

The old general is right, this king is also out of this consideration, and in two days you will see something more powerful than bows and arrows, bed crossbows, and catapults. Xiao Ming bought a pass.

Hearing this, Niu Ben was surprised: Is this why His Highness is busy in the equipment department these days?

Exactly, at that time, it would be better for the old general to dismount more safely. Xiao Ming joked.

The bandits in Wubao are already like turtles in a urn. They obviously did not expect that even the Qingzhou army would be dispatched in large numbers for a Wubao.

Three days later, a carriage, escorted by cavalry, slowly entered the temporary barracks stationed outside Uburg.

In the past three days, the Qingzhou army and the rebel bandits basically persuaded to surrender, and the rebel bandit scolded them back. The bows and arrows of both sides shot indiscriminately, and Niu Ben went out to kill several archers of the other side.

The ladder in the barracks was also ready, but he didn't want to damage the soldiers on the internal wear.

And this Wubao had to be taken, because not only was there cement in it, but this Wubao also occupied a major traffic road, posing a great logistical threat to Cangzhou.

His Royal Highness, the artillery has arrived. Chen Qi arrived with twelve craftsmen from the Equipment Division.

Looking at the cannons wrapped in layers on the carriage, Xiao Ming smiled happily and said to Niu Ben, Old General, this is this king's secret weapon.
