Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

C402 Fire



C402 Fire

2Anger is anger, cursing is cursing.    

    

Tuoba Hong felt that something was not right in his heart.    

    

He couldn't put it into words, but he felt that something was wrong.    

    

He seemed to have neglected something very important.    

    

However, he racked his brain, yet he couldn't recall it at all.    

    

In the end, he could only give up.    

    

The attack of Qin Country.    

    

It had completely calmed down.    

    

It was as if Tuoba Hong wanted to give him enough time to react.    

    

It was also as if Old Devil Xiao knew that he had an absolute victory in his hands. He arrogantly waited for Tuoba Hong to break out of the situation.    

    

As for Tuoba Hong, he really didn't know what to do for a moment.    

    

It was still his subordinates who were more experienced.    

    

Since the bow and crossbow didn't have much of an effect on them, and if they were to engage in close combat, he might as well use some strange moves.    

    

The so-called strange moves were first fire attacks.    

    

They could set up some fire seeds in the inner city. When the people of Qin Country rushed in again, they would ignite them and burn them to death inside.    

    

They could also use hot oil. As long as they boiled the oil pot and waited for the people to come in, they would immediately pour it down.    

    

Then, no matter how thick the shields of the people of Qin Country were or how sturdy their armor was, they would still be burned to death!    

    

This... This was indeed a good idea!    

    

Tuoba Hong immediately sent someone to prepare.    

    

But the result was...    

    

[Kindling]?    

    

There was not enough firewood in the city. If he wanted firewood, he could only tear down the house. But who could he tear down?    

    

The civilians were definitely unhappy. This was not a matter of going all out. Even if they really burned the enemy to death, it would be useless!    

    

First of all, the inner city could not hold many people. Ten thousand people was the maximum.    

    

And the enemy had 200 thousand troops!    

    

They could not just burn a wave and come in to send a wave, right?    

    

If they didn't win this war and the civilians didn't have houses to live in, what should they do?    

    

Before anything happened outside, there was a commotion inside!    

    

After all, the army of Qin Country had not done anything that would anger the heavens and the people.    

    

The hatred of the civilians had not been stirred up at all.    

    

If he had gone too far, perhaps the civilians would hate him even more.    

    

As for the next method.    

    

Oil pot?    

    

If all the oil in the city was gathered together, it would only be enough for a few dozen pots of oil. When the entire pot was poured down, killing a hundred people would be considered luck.    

    

After that, there would be no oil stars in the entire city.    

    

This was no longer a matter of going all out, but stupidity!    

    

Oil was too precious.    

    

"Then use stones!"    

    

Tuoba Hong was helpless.    

    

But where did the stone come from?    

    

This was a city.    

    

How many stones could there be inside?    

    

If he wanted to leave the city... He would have to ask the army of Qin Country if they were willing to give way.    

    

If he were to transport them from the rear, it would be an extremely strenuous task.    

    

Could it be that they still had to tear things apart?    

    

They would dismantle things whenever they saw stones?    

    

This was probably not possible.    

    

For a moment, Tuoba Hong really had no other choice.    

    

But he could only give it his all.    

    

He got a part of the stone.    

    

He was just waiting for the Qin Country's army to rush in and die.    

    

After three days of silence.    

    

The army of Qin Country began to gather again.    

    

They were ready to set off.    

    

Tuoba Hong gritted his teeth and made full preparations.    

    

The city gate that had just been repaired was actually far from being as solid as before.    

    

He knew that it would really be very difficult to defend this time!    

    

But this time, it was the same as last time.    

    

Rushing in, they turned around and saw a rock falling from the city wall. They immediately left.    

    

Coming and going, it was like entering their own backyard.    

    

It really made Tuoba Hong so angry that he jumped up and down.    

    

But at the same time, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

If the army of Qin Country really wanted to fight, he really didn't know how he could defend himself.    

    

For a moment.    

    

A sense of powerlessness almost drove him crazy.    

    

Another three days later, the Qin Country army launched another attack.    

    

This time, it was the same as the last two times. They turned around and left.    

    

Gradually, the soldiers of Northern Wei Country began to relax.    

    

However, Tuoba Hong knew that this matter was definitely not that simple!    

    

His heart had always been tense.    

    

However, when he saw the people slacking off, there was nothing he could do.    

    

He had gone out countless times to call out to everyone to take this seriously. He had to be careful of the underhanded tactics of the Qin Country's army.    

    

However, they couldn't resist the fact that the Qin Country's army didn't do anything!    

    

Three times, they had only torn down the main gate three times.    

    

In the end, the people who were repairing the gate started to deal with them.    

    

Because they knew that the door would break down again after a few days.    

    

And when the Qin Country attacked for the fourth time...    

    

Everything had changed!    

    

On this day, the sun was shining brightly.    

    

Originally, it was the most suitable weather for washing clothes and sunbathing.    

    

However, the army of Qin Country suddenly rushed over.    

    

When the soldiers on the city wall saw this, they said in boredom, "Why are you here again? Can't you stop for a few days? Hiss... The sun is so big, why is it still so cold? It really makes me speechless."    

    

" Yeah, I've been drawing bows and shooting arrows these past few days. My fingers are already cracked. Every night, it hurts so much, and it even tickles. "    

    

"Then you better not scratch it. If you scratch it a bit, there will be a big problem!"    

    

"Don't worry. How can I not know?"    

    

The people on the city wall appeared very relaxed.    

    

They symbolically shot arrows.    

    

But this time...    

    

Qin Country was different!    

    

They broke through the city walls once again.    

    

Then, they entered the inner city.    

    

This time, the cavalry went first.    

    

They flung the cloth in their hands.    

    

Tuoba Hong noticed the movements of a few of them.    

    

They stood on the path that cavalry had to take to bypass the city, and then they actually lit a bonfire there!    

    

This...    

    

The defending troops did not plan to set fire to anyone, but instead, they set up a bonfire. What was going on? They wanted to start a fire and cook here?    

    

But in the next moment...    

    

When the first cavalryman passed by, the spinning stone ball in his hand suddenly lit up with fire!    

    

One! One by one, he waved the burning fireballs in his hand.    

    

Then...    

    

With a sudden swing, he threw the fireballs high up into the air, passed the inner city wall, and landed in the city behind him...    

    

"Ah!!"    

    

Tuoba Hong was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly roared.    

    

"Stop them! Hurry up and stop them!"    

    

He finally understood what the army of Qin Country was trying to do. What was this guy who was once called the King of Hell, Old Devil Xiao, trying to do?    

    

Arson!    

    

The first few times, they were just going through the motions, which annoyed the people in the city.    

    

On the surface, it seemed to be a strategy to disturb the enemy.    

    

But in reality, that was not the case.    

    

They were paralyzed.    

    

What was numb was not only the soldiers, but the entire city!    

    

Especially the civilians.    

    

Their roofs were constantly smashed.    

    

What could they do? In the air, they could only repair it.    

    

They had to repair it every two or three days, which meant that they had been "renovating" all this time.    

    

All kinds of waste and wood were randomly piled up beside the house.    

    

And today, the fire... appeared!    

    

Or rather, this rare weather appeared.    

    

The weather was dry, so be careful of the candles.    

    

This was a warning that Tuoba Hong had heard for the rest of his life.    

    

Perhaps it was because he had listened too much and had forgotten about it.    

    

Or rather, he had neglected it.    

    

When the fireball fell to the ground, what was originally a stone... was not a stone at all!    

    

It was similar to a piece of fat that could easily break.    

    

It directly spread out, allowing the flame to spread from one point to a large piece in an instant!    

    

When this group of cavalry was done throwing it away.    

    

The army of Qin Country retreated again.    

    

This time, they did not stop.    

    

Instead, they marched forward!    

    

They surrounded the city gates so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out!    

    

Then, Old General Xiao stepped out from the crowd.    

    

Squinting his eyes, he quietly looked at the city that was already beginning to smoke.    

    

"This old man will remind you three times, this method of attack is too ruthless. It is too damaging to one's longevity. However, that kid in the family insisted on forcing me to use it. I can't do anything about it. I can only use these three feints to attack. I will remind you that since my army can throw stones, why didn't you think of that? "    

    

He let out a long sigh.    

    

Soon.    

    

A fiery light appeared in the city.    

    

Old General Xiao sighed again.    

    

As expected, in the next moment, he heard a wail!    

    

He raised his head and looked at Tuoba Hong, who was staring at him from the top of the city wall.    

    

He then said loudly, "Surrender. You still have time to save him."    

    

"Don't even think about it!"    

    

Tuoba Hong also shouted loudly.    

    

"Why bother? To fight for the loyalty of the people, but to disregard the lives of the people in the city?"
