A meteor shower began to fall from the sky. A thousand rockets streaked across the sky and fell towards Gaoping City!
The guards on the city wall were all stunned. Wang Bang also held on tightly to the city wall to prevent himself from falling down, but his entire body was cold and his limbs were weak!
He finally understood what Meng Dan wanted to do! Meng Dan had never thought of breaking into Gaoping City. His goal had always been the provisions in Gaoping City!
Everyone was wrong. They subconsciously thought that if they wanted to burn the rations, they had to break through the city. However, there was no necessary connection!
Mondain directly sent the fire arrows over the city wall and into the city. A thousand flames were enough to set the grain in the city on fire!
This was also due to the fact that the Gaoping City Wall was not high, only less than 30 feet! If it was like Lorraine City, which was 100 feet tall, then Meng Dan had no choice!
Wang Bang's face was pale. He only wanted to scold Meng Dan for being too vicious, but the most important thing now was to save the rations!
This was the lifeblood of the entire rebel army! If the rations were gone, the restless rebels would rebel in an instant!
"We're finished!" Wang Bang shook his head sadly, but he still called over a trusted general and asked him to bring people to help Lin Jie save the rations!
Now, he would save as many as he could!
Meng Dan looked at Gaoping City with a cold expression. He could clearly see that when 1,000 fire arrows landed in the city!
The entire West City was instantly set ablaze. Xixi was bitterly cold, and the weather was dry. Many times, a spark could ignite a big fire!
Gaoping City was filled with over a hundred thousand rebel soldiers 'rations for two to three months. They had plundered all of Xixi and Sanfu!
A thousand fire arrows had landed on so much grain. The result was unimaginable. The fire instantly ignited and spread rapidly!
Rescue was ineffective!
Meng Dan nodded lightly with an indifferent expression. This was a real war! In order to achieve his goal, he would do anything!
Gaoping's defenders were all trapped in the city. This fire would at least kill a few thousand people! It would definitely be a tragedy in the future!
However, in this era, human lives were really cheap. Countless people died every year because of wars and rebellions!
On the other side, Meng Hu had already ordered the Middle Corps to begin the second round of firing. The 1,000 fire arrows were just the beginning. This fire was going to be even more violent!
Meanwhile, Mondain took a bow from his personal guard. It was the same as the one used by the central army, longer and heavier, with a longer range and greater power!
Feeling the power of the crossbow, Meng Dan's heart was filled with emotions. This kind of crossbow was definitely different!
Few people in this era knew about it, but it was famous 400 years ago!
Its name was Qin Crossbow!
The Qin army's crossbows!
The Qin army brought it out of Hangu Pass and conquered the six states! The Great Wall Army had used it to wipe out countless barbarians in the grasslands!
Blood flowed like a river outside the Great Wall. The chest slaves did not dare to take a step south!
Qin crossbow had forged its name with blood!
Unfortunately, after the Great Wall Army was destroyed, the Qin crossbow's craftsmanship was slowly lost. Today, one could only see its appearance in some ancient books from the early Jin Dynasty!
However, there was no record of its production process. The Qin crossbow had long been lost in the entire Jin Country!
However, there were still records of it in the Meng family. The Meng family had clearly passed down the method of making it!
There was even a Qin crossbow from the Great Wall Army. Although it was no longer usable, Meng Dan had carefully studied its structure!
When Meng Dan gained his own military power, he ordered the craftsmen to make Qin crossbows. There were not many, only about 1,000 of them, which was only enough for the central army!
Of course, Mondain did not plan to deploy more. Most of the guards under him were cavalrymen, and Qin crossbows were most suitable for infantry!
Therefore, these 1,000 Qin crossbows were enough!
The range of ordinary arrows was only a hundred meters, but the range of Qin crossbows was nearly five hundred meters, and they could easily pass through the city walls!
At this moment, the second round of volleys from the central army had already been completed. The flames in the city were even bigger. The place was filled with dry rations. The defenders in the city could not save them at all. Instead, many people were burned to death!
The overall situation was set. Gao Ping's rations were finished, and the rebel army was also finished. Mengdan had succeeded. Unless there was a heavy rain at this time, the rebel army would definitely be defeated!
But if that was the case, then Meng Dan's luck would be too terrible! However, he would not be angered to death like Zhuge Liang!
Meng Dan did not think about anything else. At this moment, his target was Wang Bang on the city wall!
It was impossible for the rebel army to turn the tables. Then, Meng Dan would have to teach Wang Bang, that sh * t-stirring stick, a lesson!
Anyone who dared to be so arrogant in front of Meng Dan would have died long ago! Wang Bang was next! Moreover, he was the younger brother of the rebel leader, Wang Bang. Killing Wang Bang was also a great merit!
Meng Dan held the cold Qin crossbow and drew an arrow. He instantly pulled the bowstring and aimed at the figure on the city wall!
At this moment, Wang Bang's face was pale. In his panic, he could only support his body by supporting himself on the city wall. Half of his head was exposed!
He looked at the fire in the city with a miserable expression and muttered,"I'm finished this time. There's no more rations. The army can't hold on anymore. Big brother won't forgive me!”
Wang Bang was terrified, and his body was weak as if he had lost his soul. However, he was instantly awakened by the heat wave from the city!
Then, his face became extremely ferocious. He turned his head towards the outside of the city and roared in a low voice,"Meng Dan, damn Meng Dan, how can you be so vicious!”
He hated Meng Dan to death. The rations of the army of over a hundred thousand soldiers were burned, and the rebel army would collapse instantly. He would also die a miserable death!
He looked at Mondain outside the city with a ferocious expression, but this glance made his body instantly stiffen!
He suddenly saw Meng Dan draw a huge bow. His target seemed to be him.
Wang Bang's body stiffened, and his mouth was slightly open. He looked incredulous. He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Meng Dan did not give him time!
When Wang Bang turned around, Meng Dan had already released his bow. Under the powerful force, the arrow instantly rushed towards Wang Bang!
Mondain's strength was much stronger than those guards, and the trajectory of his arrows could not be seen at all!
However, Wang Bang saw a black dot flying towards him. He wanted to dodge, but his reaction speed could not compare to Mondain's arrow!
The powerful arrow hit Wang Bang in the middle of his forehead. Under the powerful force, the arrow pierced through his skull, bringing out a red and white thing, and stabbed into the throat of a rebel general!
Wang Bang's gaze was completely unfocused as his body fell back. There was still disbelief in his eyes!
The guards on the city wall looked at Wang Bang's corpse and instantly fell silent. Then, with a loud bang, countless people were terrified!
"The high-level guard is dead!"
They were running and crying loudly, and the fire in the city was getting bigger and bigger. The entire Gaoping City seemed to have become a big furnace!
