The Era of Generals

　　 There is less than one hour left!

　　 After confirming the military power, Chen Ze did not delay, and the generals hurriedly left the military plane.

　　 It was that Mr. Jing, but it seemed that he had left everything to Chen Ze for full control, and he didn't even get out of the building.

　　 Cao Lang, or the goatee strategist, when Chen Zelai was in charge of the military power, they, including his protégés, were all returned to the Xiyun Defender, and Chen Ze had the right to be directly transferred with the military token.

　　 was able to get out, Chen Ze thought for a while and asked Cao Lang and others to take their protégés and entourage, a total of more than 300 people, to the southeast gates.

The terrain of West Cloud City is quite high. There are only three gates, east, west and south. The east gate leads to Bo’an City, and the south gate leads to Qiuding City. The west gate is directly facing the forest of poisonous fog, and is currently the most defensive gate. .

　　 As for the steep cliff to the north, Yiya has built a thick wall, but I am not afraid that someone will take the opportunity to touch it.

　　 According to reports, the size of the private soldiers of Cao Lang and others have also experienced battles, and they are far stronger than the weak recruits of Xiyun City, but Chen Ze still assigned them to the two southeast gates.

　　 It's not that he doesn't want to use it, but that he doesn't dare to use it!

　　 Marching war requires an order prohibition, just like when he took a military plane token to the barracks just now, as soon as the order is in hand, the soldiers will do what he says. No one has ever raised any objection.

　　 Private soldiers are different.

　　Private soldiers all have their own masters, and the order will have to be passed through Cao Lang and others again. Although everyone has acquiesced to Chen Ze as the commander, how convinced are they?

　　 I'm afraid it might not happen.

　　 It's more for self-consideration, and let Chen Ze jump out of his back.

　　Under such circumstances, if Chen Ze's order made Cao Lang and others feel that their interests were harmed, how could they seriously implement it?

　　 Even if you don't refute it on the spot, it's a violation of the law.

　　 In that case, it's better not to use it.

　　 As for Cao Lang and others, Chen Ze is also happy to assign them idle positions. After accepting the recruitment, they will have a guarantee. What's wrong with lying comfortably and earning exploits?

　　 If there is a case, if the situation is not good, it would be easier to run away, isn’t it?

So they were all pregnant with ghosts, and everyone was polite on the surface. As soon as they got out of the military plane, they greeted their protégés and entourage to go down the two southeast gates, leaving only Chen Ze standing alone in the street. .

　　 Li Quanan and others who went to the post house first were also settled at this time, hurriedly ran to meet Chen Ze, and rode to the West Gate under the leadership of Chen Ze.

　　 There were no traces of people on the street, and West Cloud City was not big. It only drove for a quarter of an hour, and everyone had arrived at the gate of the city.

　　The closer you get to the gate, the more people there will be. They are all soldiers sent here by Chen Ze first. At this moment, they are nervously carrying supplies to the gate.

　　 Weapons, arrows, stone bullets, rolling logs, asphalt, and all kinds of ordnance were removed from the armament storehouse at the root of the city wall. Because of the responsibility to take care of the poisonous mist forest, these reserves are still abundant.

　　 Chen Ze couldn't help but look at the stone bullets weighing thirty or forty catties being lifted upstairs by the soldiers with difficulty.

　　 There are catapults for siege and trebuchets for defense.

　　 However, West Cloud City is not big, and the city wall is naturally short. There are a total of five trebuchets erected above the gate.

　　 It’s not that I don’t want to have more than one. It’s really that this thing is too big and the walls are narrow. If you add a trebuchet, you have to pile up rock bombs. In addition, each trebuchet requires dozens of people to pull and launch, making it even more crowded.

　　 In desperation, five trebuchets are the limit that can be erected by the West Gate.

　　 "Wait for a while and move other things!"

　　 Looking around, Chen Ze rolled over and got off his horse, shouting at the soldiers who were still struggling to carry the stone bullets.

　　The soldiers were startled, and looked at Chen Ze blankly.

　　 "This... Counselor."

　　I saw the commander of the soldiers next to him, and he hurried forward, looked at the badge on Chen Ze's chest, and asked in confusion, "May I ask you who..."

　　He was the leader of the West Cloud City Defense Army. When Chen Ze went to the barracks, he was still patrolling the city, so the two had never seen him.

　　 "I don't know how to call it?"

　　 Chen Ze directly took out the token of the military plane and asked at the same time.

　　"Xu Qing, the villain, I wonder what the adults have to order?"

　　 Recognizing the order and not recognizing the person, as soon as the other party took out the token of the military aircraft, the commander of the army immediately became tall.

　　 "Xu Qing, right? I want to ask..." Chen Ze pointed to the trebuchet above the tower, "how many trebuchets are there?"

"Yes!"

　　 Xu Qing said like a few treasurers: "These are heavy trebuchets, which are not easy to make and transport. Therefore, besides the five on the tower on the west gate, there are only two in the warehouse for backup purposes. There are seven in total!"

　　 "Seven frames?"

　　 Chen Ze frowned and thought, "Where are the southeast sides?"

　　 "Over there?"

　　 Xu Qing was taken aback, and said: "The walls on both sides are even narrower, so there are four with one, a total of ten."

　　 "How about the range?"

　　 Chen Ze asked again.

His previous life has already entered the age of technological wars, and his understanding of trebuchets is limited to books. Moreover, there are many types of playrooms. Ancient Chinese and foreign ones are quite different, let alone this remote, alien continent. One question.

　　 Xu Qing did not express impatience due to this kind of common-sense question, and answered meticulously: "If you cast on the ground, it is a hundred steps. If you are condescending on the tower, you can reach one hundred and fifty steps!"

　　 One hundred steps, almost one hundred meters.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Ze looked at the city wall, and after calculating it in his mind, he told Xu Qing: "So ~www.readwn.com~ the spare will be brought over from the South City Gate. The East City Gate has the least relative pressure, so you can go to the City Tower again. Remove one from the top, and the spare one will also be shipped in."

　　 "There are ten trebuchets here, barely enough!"

"this……"

　　 Xu Qing suddenly looked embarrassed and hesitated: "My lord, although the power of the trebuchet is great, we can't put it down on the tower. If you force the installation, the subordinates are afraid it will be the opposite!"

　　 Chen Ze nodded and said, "Well, the trebuchet is really too big, so you order a team of people to go up and take down the five above."

"what?"

　　 As soon as he said this, Xu Qing's eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Ze incredulously, for fear that he had heard it wrong.

　　 "I said, I will also take down the five above."

　　 Chen Ze repeated.

　　 "My lord! This is absolutely impossible!"

　　 Xu Qing stopped anxiously: "Without the trebuchet, what shall we defend the city?"

　　 There is another sentence in my heart that I didn’t say: I have to move over again, and I have to tear down the existing ones. This is not enough to support you!

　　 "You, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, do whatever my elder brother says!"

　　 Next to Meng Yang, he was impatient of hearing it. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to go forward to teach Xu Qing what to execute the order, and Chen Ze stopped him in time.

　　 also said softly: "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements, you just do it!"

　　While speaking, the military aircraft token was revealed in front of Xu Qing's eyes intentionally or unintentionally.

"This……"

　　 Xu Qing hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Here, I will send someone to do it."

　　Woo——

　　 At that moment, the muffled horns from the tower made a loud noise, and everyone's complexion changed drastically at the same time.

　　Warning!

　　 enemy attack!
