"This Qi Family Army is indeed very strange; we need to be careful later."
Everyone frowned, their faces full of questions.
If you call this thing a spear, it's not long enough, and its shape is quite bizarre. If you call it a knife, it's just a tiny blade, not even big enough to cut open an appendix.
"This is probably some kind of unusual weapon. And looking inside, there seem to be several other strange weapons as well. This army is probably quite peculiar!"
Lu Donghongri was in a terrible predicament; this bunch of crooked and wicked people had come.
If such an army were to fight using conventional methods, I would likely fall into their trap; I must be very careful.
Those weird-looking weapons, who knows what they're for.
He was certain that this was an army that had never appeared before, and its style was different from the previous armies of the Great Liang, which was truly unbelievable.
I just hope their combat strength is average, otherwise it will be troublesome.
His gaze fell on Qi Jiguang, the leader of the opposing force. Just what was this man's ability to dare call himself the Qi Family Army?
"Huh!"
As if sensing something, Qi Jiguang's gaze also turned to the hilltop not far away, where he saw Lu Donghongri with his deep-set eyes, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
"Ha, they're scouting the enemy!" he sneered, gauging the distance before pulling out a musket from the side.
This distance is over 100 meters, but it's still within firing range.
Bang!
With a single shot, a deafening roar was heard, followed by an iron ball soaring through the air, heading straight for Lu Donghongri.
"Oh no, they're coming for me!"
Lu Donghongri Qi Jiguang looking at him and then pulling out a stick and pointing it at him, he immediately had a bad feeling.
He instinctively shrank back to avoid being hit by this strange weapon.
However, he was clearly overthinking it. Even if Qi Jiguang was a sharpshooter, the distance was more than two hundred meters. How could it be so easy to hit him amidst thousands of soldiers?
ah!
A scream rang out; a lieutenant nearby had been shot, the arrowhead gushing blood, and a pungent odor could be faintly smelled.
"What is this?" Lu Donghongri's pupils contracted, startled.
What on earth is that thing the opponent has that can hit me from such a distance? That's just too outrageous.
The worst part is that I got caught!
His heart pounded, and he was gripped by a sense of crisis. Without another word, he said in a low voice, "Withdraw!"
"Retreat immediately!"
This is outside the city. If Qi Jiguang catches up with me, I'm doomed. I have to leave.
After saying this, the group carried the wounded soldier and left via a side path.
As he watched them leave, a cold glint flashed in Qi Jiguang's eyes. This man was incredibly audacious, daring to examine him at such close range.
If it weren't for the fact that it's difficult to get close to the enemy quickly from here, he would have already charged in.
"General, should we pursue and kill them?" the adjutant whispered.
Qi Jiguang shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No need. They can run away, but they can't hide. Our target is Pingyu Pass. These people are nothing to worry about."
Weapons ready, let's prepare to attack the city! Let's take Pingyu Pass first!
So what if a few people escaped? As long as we capture Pingyu Pass, we will have ultimately achieved our goal, and there will be no loss whatsoever.
"Phew, I'm back safe and sound!"
Lu Donghongri had escaped back into the city, breathed a sigh of relief. He had felt like he had just escaped death; the other party was indeed strange.
That weapon can actually injure people from such a distance; it's truly outrageous. That kind of stick is extremely dangerous.
He took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "We must be careful later. We absolutely cannot let them enter our area, or we will all be in danger."
Luckily I checked earlier, otherwise I would have been caught off guard.
If this happens unexpectedly, the losses will be devastating.
Upon hearing this, the men who had gone out earlier immediately started cursing and swearing. They had been terrified and almost got hit themselves.
"You're right, that stick is really weird!"
"Damn it, we really need to be careful. I didn't expect this thing to be able to shoot so far!"
"That stick can actually shoot things out and even pierce through the body; it's truly terrifying."
"We need to be careful later; we can't let them get in front of us, otherwise the city walls won't be safe either."
Everyone nodded in agreement. They had almost been killed just now, and the experience left them with lingering fear; they had truly escaped death.
"Damn it, they're charging straight at us!"
Just then, the sound of booming war drums suddenly came from afar, causing Lu Donghongri's pupils to shrink. The enemy had launched an attack without stopping.
I thought the opponent would at least use some tactics, but I didn't expect them to come straight for my base. That's a bit too arrogant.
This is treating me like I'm not human!
really!
Under their watchful eyes, a torrent of cavalry charged straight towards them; it was none other than Qi Jiguang, whom they had met briefly earlier, who had come straight at them.
Once they reached that distance, Qi Family Army stopped immediately.
"Haha, it's you!"
Looking at the Lu Donghongri over the city wall, a smile flashed in Qi Jiguang's eyes, and he couldn't help but burst into laughter. What a coincidence!
Lu Donghongri glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "I am Lu Donghongri, a general of the Zhennan Dynasty. I have remembered that move you just made!"
They hit me the moment we met, even Buddha would get angry.
"Hahaha, you think you can take that?"
A hint of disdain flashed in Qi Jiguang's eyes, and he sneered, "You'd better try to survive first, but I don't think you have that chance."
Remember the man who killed you! I am Qi Jiguang, the great general under the Emperor Zhenwu! Today, I will destroy your Pingyu Pass!
With a wave of his hand, one after another, Crouching Tiger Cannon were pushed out and placed directly at the front, revealing their pitch-black barrels.
Grunt!
Lu Donghongri's expression changed drastically. He remembered what Zeri Longxi had said: the other party possessed a terrifying weapon that could directly destroy the city walls.
The only drawback is that it seems to be a one-time use item, which is what's in front of you.
Lu Donghongri immediately took a step back and shouted, "Shoot at the enemy! We absolutely cannot let them get close to the city wall!"
In an instant, a rain of arrows filled the sky and flew straight ahead.
Seeing this, a hint of mockery flashed in Qi Jiguang's eyes, and he shouted, "Fire!" This time, he hadn't come to reminisce, but to destroy the city.
call out!
The Crouching Tiger Cannon, once lit, sparked as the fuse burned, followed by several loud explosions, sending the cannonballs hurtling towards the enemy's city wall.
Rumble rumble rumble!!!
The groundbreaking Crouching Tiger Cannon made its first sound in Great Liang.
With a loud bang, soldiers collapsed to the ground at the point of the explosion, terrifying Lu Donghongri to the point of turning green with fright.
"Damn, that's way too intense!"
But the next moment, his voice was drowned out by the sound of an explosion.
