The south wind was blowing strongly, and Jiang Wei led a thousand paratroopers to take off with the wind and drift towards Hefei.
After Huang Yueying gave birth to her son Zhuge Zhan for Zhuge Liang a few years ago, she has been staying in her hometown in Xiangyang to raise her beloved son.
In his spare time, he has upgraded and improved Kong Ming Lantern many times, which has greatly improved the safety of this aircraft invented by her husband.
Later, Huang Yueying invented a controller that can take off and land at an altitude, and is equipped with a parachute to protect her life in an emergency.
This thing is much simpler than the sky lantern, which was mentioned by Liu Wei in a letter and made by Huang Yueying herself.
After Huang Yueying's three years of sharpening her sword and carefully transforming, this paratrooper brigade in the Eastern Han Dynasty now has considerable combat effectiveness.
And this is also the first time that the paratrooper brigade has been put into battle after improving its equipment, Zhuge Liang is full of expectations for its performance, although he is supervising the troops to storm Shitang Town, he always can't help but look up at the sky.
Zhuge Liang's inference was accurate, and the cold northwest wind slowly turned into a southwest wind, and the wind strength was about level five, which was the most suitable for sky lantern flight.
If the wind is stronger, it will pose a great threat to the paratroopers, and there is a possibility that people will die at any time.
If the wind is light, the sky lantern flies slowly and is vulnerable to enemy attacks.
"This is God bless the Han, it seems that Hefei can be saved" Zhuge Liang looked up at the starry sky lantern, with a joyful smile on his face, and at the same time sent an order to Long and Chen: "Give me a storming of Shitang Town, and be sure to arrive at Hefei before dawn."
The sound of killing in Shitang Town shook the sky, crossbow arrows flew one after another, and the battle in Hefei City was even more tragic.
The crossbow arrows in the city were almost exhausted, not to mention that the quiver of ordinary soldiers was empty, and even the crossbowmen who were in charge of releasing arrows had only three or two feathered arrows left in the hands of poor Baba.
Without the threat of feather arrows, Cao Bing's attack became even more unscrupulous.
Many people climbed the city wall along the ladder and started a bloody hand-to-hand fight with the Han army, but because the number of people who climbed the city wall had not yet formed a scale, they were all repelled by Lu Junyi and Ma Dai who led their troops to sacrifice their lives and forget to die again and again.
However, the Cao army under the city could see that as long as the attack continued, they could occupy the Hefei city wall in an hour at the latest, so they all shouted and roared, brandishing swords and spears to storm the city.
The first to climb the city wall has been killed, and this great achievement is still famous, as long as you work hard, maybe it will fall on your head.
"Hey-roar" A burly figure jumped up and suddenly climbed the city wall, and the silver light of a pair of iron halberds in his hand flashed, and in an instant, he cut down five or six Han soldiers, and rushed through a gap in the city wall.
Four or five tiger guards took the opportunity to climb to the top of the city, gathered together, protected the location of the ladder, and created conditions for the companions who would be reinforced later to enter the city.
"I am Chen Liuji, my people Dian Wei is also" Dian Wei roared like thunder, and the iron halberd flew up and down, inserting into the belly of an oncoming Han army general, gritting his teeth and glaring angrily, "Xue Li and Zhuge Liang have already died in battle, why don't you hurry up and be captured?"
"Lu Junyi is here, and the traitor is rampant" A bang sounded, and Lu Junyi, who had a foot of beautiful hair under his chin, rushed towards Dian Wei with a unicorn point steel gun in his hand, a poisonous snake came out of the hole, and the silver spear picked up three spear flowers and stabbed Dian Wei's chest.
"Good marksmanship, there are a few talents in Hefei City" Unexpectedly, in addition to Xue Rengui, there were still such fierce generals in Hefei City, Dian Wei waved his halberd to block, and at the same time involuntarily praised it.
"Ding Dong Dian Wei evil attribute is continuing to erupt, infantry combat force 3, base force value 99, weapon 1, current force increased to 103" The two tigers will flash around the city, guns and halberds, and fight for their lives.
It's almost a knife to blood, a move to kill you, a situation where either you die or I die.
Dian Wei has a long and strong body, and his strength is outstanding, coupled with his familiarity with foot combat, the double halberd is varied.
Facing the No. 1 hero of the Water Margin, after about 20 rounds of vicious battles, he firmly gained the upper hand, and forced Lu Junyi to retreat step by step.
Taking advantage of Dian Wei's blocking of Lu Junyi, there were more and more Cao soldiers climbing up the ladder, gradually exceeding thirty people, and they were slowly forming a scale.
One by one roared, with red eyes and brandished swords to fight hand-to-hand with the Han soldiers, the flesh and blood of the direct killing flew sideways, and the heads of people rolled wildly.
"General Dian, the little ones are here to help you" Seeing that Dian Wei had been fighting Lu Junyi for a long time, two Tiger Guards stepped forward to help, one holding a red tassel gun and the other holding a Pu knife, and Dian Wei attacked left and right.
"Ding Dong Lu Junyi's all-soldier attributes exploded, and every time he was attacked by one more weapon, his force was 2, and the upper limit was 6 points.
Current force 4, base force 98, Kirin point steel gun 1, force increased to 103" Seeing that these two Cao soldiers were twisting their clumsy bodies, but blocking Dian Wei's play and playing a role in tightening the constraints, Lu Junyi was overjoyed.
The golden light of the spear in his hand flashed, and he seized the opportunity to stab Dian Wei several times, but instead forced Dian Wei back into the corner.
"Fuck off" Dian Wei was annoyed when the two Tiger Guards blocked the route of the attack, compressing the space for displaying his skills.
But considering that the two of them had good intentions, it was not easy to attack, so they could only wave their halberds to block and scold the two at the same time.
The two soldiers and the second monk were at a loss, and they annoyed the main general somewhere, so they could only retreat stupidly.
Three or four soldiers rushed to help in the battle, each armed with spears, axes, and machetes, and surrounded him, "We will help the general" "Ding Dong Lu Junyi's all-soldier attribute broke out again, force 2, and the current force rose to 105" So under the light of the torches, there was a comical scene on the city wall.
Originally, Dian Wei alone had the upper hand, and Lu Junyi, who was killed, retreated, but because there were more and more Cao soldiers on the city wall, many people stepped forward to help in the battle, but Lu Junyi's spirit regained the advantage and forced Cao soldiers, including Dian Wei, to the outer city wall.
Dian Wei stabbed out with his halberd several times, but because he was afraid of accidentally injuring his own soldiers, he could only change his tactics halfway.
There was a lot of commotion on the city wall, Dian Wei was stepped on his toes several times, and finally couldn't help but be furious, grabbed a Cao soldier and threw it down the city wall: "There are many chickens that don't lay eggs, and there are many people who are blind and messy, get out of my way."
"Look, what a big star" Cao Bing at the foot of the city wall was suddenly attracted by the bright "stars" above his head, and they all subconsciously stopped attacking, and raised their heads and stretched their necks to look at the sky.
Something as bright as a fireball came from the southwest, dense and overwhelming, as if the stars in the sky had suddenly fallen to the ground.
It is estimated that the height of about 150 zhang from the ground is bright and dazzling, and it is mysterious and awe-inspiring.
Jiang Wei controlled an off-white Kong Ming lantern and rotated the control mechanism, allowing the sky lantern to slowly descend to a distance of about one hundred and twenty or thirty zhang from the ground.
Suddenly, he leaned out of the hanging basket, picked up the Zhuge crossbow, and shot a shuttle of crossbow arrows at the dense Cao Jun on the ground.
"Aggressive" The sound of armor-piercing into flesh sounded like a machine gun, and such a dense crowd greatly increased the lethality of Zhuge Repeater's crossbow.

After the ten crossbows in Jiang Wei's hand were shot, at least five or six Cao soldiers were shot, and they all fell to the ground and screamed in pain while covering their wounds.
"Where is this star, this is clearly the legendary Kong Ming lantern" With a frightened cry, Cao Bing on the ground seemed to have stabbed a hornet's nest, and subconsciously squatted down to hold his head, or raised his shield to block his head.
"Shoot me hard" Jiang Wei controlled the parachute rudder while giving orders to the paratroopers around him.
After receiving Jiang Wei's order, the thousands of paratroopers in the air leaned out of the hanging baskets one after another, picked up the Zhuge crossbow and shot at the ground.
For a while, the swarthy short crossbow fell from the sky like hail, and the Cao soldiers on the ground turned on their backs, making a mess, and screaming one after another.
"The paratroopers of the Han army are coming, and the soldiers are still shooting" Cao Shen, who was supervising the battle, bent his bow and arrows and shot back into the sky.
The crossbowmen of the Cao army, who had stabilized their positions, raised their heads one after another, pulled the bowstring like a full moon, and shot into the air with Cao Shen.
It's just that the same distance of one hundred and twenty or thirty zhang shot down from the sky, and the power is still there.
Shoot from the ground to the air, but in the end it becomes the end of the crossbow.
And after Huang Yueying's improvement, these Kong Ming lanterns can also be adjusted in height freely.
If the paratroopers in the gondola feel the danger, they only need to rotate the lifting mechanism to make the sky lantern rise a little more, so as to leave the range of Cao Bing.
Cao Jun shot into the sky for a while, but instead of hitting a Kong Ming lantern, he was shot back by the feather arrows that shot into the sky, injuring many of his companions.
Cao Jun could only stop firing arrows, and Cao Shen hurriedly ordered a thunderbolt to come over to see if he could hit the Han paratroopers overhead But the paratroopers did not love war, continued to fly with the wind, drifted to the sky above the city of Hefei, and shouted in unison: "The soldiers in the city hold on for a while, General Zhuge has led 100,000 troops to come to the aid of Shitang Town, which is fifteen miles south of the city at this moment, and will definitely arrive under the city before dawn, and I will come to you to send feather arrows on the order of General Zhuge ."
While encouraging the morale of the soldiers in the city, the paratroopers lowered the height of the Kong Ming lantern and threw the bound feather arrows from the sky into Hefei City.
Fifty feathered arrows per man, and a thousand paratroopers brought a total of fifty thousand feathered arrows, which was enough for the defenders of the city to last a day.
"Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are really coming" "Reinforcements are coming, feather arrows are coming, Hefei is defending, we are saved" Seeing a heavenly general male division coming from the south, the Cao soldiers who shot turned on their backs.
The most needed feather arrow is like a dumpling in the pot from the sky into the city, at this moment Hefei City is boiling, the people are crying with joy, and the soldiers are hoarsely shouting Tens of thousands of old and weak women and children searched the city for the airdropped feather arrows, and then sent them to the city wall as fast as possible, and handed them over to the blood-stained soldiers to kill the enemy.
Although the continuous fierce battle made the people extremely tired, the smile on their faces at this moment could not be concealed.
Whether it is a sixty-year-old white-haired old man or a seven- or eight-year-old child with drooping hair, his eyes are full of tears, "Hefei City is defended, we don't have to be slaughtered, we can still live" t1706231537:
