Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

"Boom boom~"

Booms resounded throughout Luoyang, and even standing in the palace, one could feel the tremors of the city.

On the city tower, I watched stone bullets break through the air from a distance, sending stone fragments flying into the city wall. If anyone was accidentally hit by a stone bullet, even a general wearing strong armor and holding a back-up could be directly hit. The flesh and blood were bruised, and the strong armor and shield could not do anything.

The Tang troops on the top of the city all crouched and peeked through the cracks in the parapet. Only Li Yuanba stepped on the parapet with a pair of hammers to protect Li Shimin, Li Yuanji and others. Occasionally, stone bullets flew in, but they were all killed by him. Hammer it open.

Even with Li Yuanba's strange strength, he would be knocked back several steps after hitting a stone bullet. This is almost never happened before.

"Yuanba, are you okay?" Li Shimin looked at Li Yuanba with some worry. This was the first time he saw Li Yuanba retreat. From afar, his brother, who was born with strange strength, was not infinitely powerful, and there were things that could make him retreat.

"It's okay..." Li Yuanba shook his head and looked at the Vulcan Cannon opposite him with excitement: "Second...Second brother, what...is this? How powerful?"

Although he was repulsed, it didn't seem to have much impact other than that. Or maybe a single stone bullet couldn't affect him. When thousands of sergeants of the Wagang Army were besieging him, he fought for a long time, killing hundreds of people and still followed him. He looks like a normal person when nothing happens, his face is not red and he is not out of breath, he has great strength, and most importantly, he has enough stamina, he looks like he is not a human being.

"Vulcan Cannon!" Li Shimin looked at the Vulcan Cannon in the distance and was completely helpless. He also tried to make a Vulcan Cannon, but the finished Vulcan Cannon either exploded directly or the range was too short. Lu Bu The Vulcan Cannon can already shoot five hundred steps, which is a despairing distance. And the Vulcan Cannon made by Li Shimin, not to mention the risk of exploding the barrel, has a range of only about a hundred steps, which is not as good as a bed. The crossbow is practical.

What is the difference between this? Li Shimin is not a craftsman. He can only briefly talk about his thoughts, but the operation requires craftsmen. But most blacksmiths are making this for the first time, unlike Lu Bu who would think so much. Naturally It is also impossible to make a super long-range Vulcan cannon like the Vulcan cannon.

Moreover, although Lu Bu's Vulcan cannon cannot be controlled accurately now, it can basically determine where it will land. In this regard, Li Shimin has no way of starting.

It was these gaps that made Li Shimin unable to make the Vulcan Cannon that allowed Lu Bu to sweep the world, even though he had made gunpowder with similar power. Now that he had seen the power of the Vulcan Cannon with his own eyes, Li Shimin felt a sense of despair.

How to fight this?

"Second brother, let someone charge, and I will lead a charge. Although this Vulcan cannon is powerful, its rate of fire is slow. As long as we rush close, we can destroy these things." Li Yuanji frowned.

If the bombardment continues like this, Luoyang City Gate will be destroyed sooner or later, and now it feels a little shaky.

"No!" Li Shimin shook his head, pointed to the opposite side and said: "Look at the enemy's formation, this is not a defensive formation, but an encirclement and suppression formation. There must be other ambushes. I'm afraid Lu Bu is waiting for our army to leave the city to fight. Prepare Fight it in the city!"

"City war!?" Li Yuanji looked at Li Shimin and said in shock.

"We can't defeat the enemy from a distance, so we can only use Luoyang City to engage the enemy in hand-to-hand combat." Li Shimin nodded. He also knew that this fight would definitely destroy Luoyang City, but there was no way. In this fight, the gap in weapons between the two sides was too big. , the advantage here lies in close combat. Not only does Li Yuanba exist, but the Tang Army's melee combat level can also be said to be the best in the world, and Wagang Army may not be able to match it.

Li Yuanji understood, and immediately went down to the city to prepare for the enemy's battle. A large number of divine weapons were ready, waiting for the enemy to enter the city to give him a head start.

The city gate was finally overwhelmed by the roar of the Vulcan cannon and was blown to pieces. The Tang army had no intention of sending troops to fight. Lu Bu frowned slightly, but Shan Xiongxin had already sent Pei Yuanqing to lead his army into the city.

But he saw that the city was empty and there was no obstruction. When he led his troops deeper into the city, a large number of divine thunders were suddenly thrown from everywhere. Pei Yuanqing's expression changed drastically when he saw this, and he shouted sternly: "Throw the thunderbolts!"

At the same time, the silver hammer in his hand kept knocking away the divine thunder that was thrown at him. Fortunately, Li Tang's divine thunder was not like Lu Bu's thunder that exploded at a touch, otherwise Pei Yuanqing would have to explain here immediately.

The surrounding soldiers retreated while throwing away the thunderbolts on their bodies.

"Boom~" In the violent explosion, the bombed limbs and broken arms of the Wei army were flying around, and the thundering thunder almost flattened the surrounding buildings. Pei Yuanqing cleared an area around him from the beginning, but even so He was also stunned by the explosion, dripping with blood, his armor had been broken into pieces, and many of them were pierced into his body. The blood couldn't help seeping out, and he escaped from Luoyang in embarrassment.

He finally came out alive, but the soldiers who entered the city suffered heavy casualties. It was a fluke that one of the ten people came back alive, and even those who came out alive were rarely intact.

"The thieves are so treacherous!" After Shan Xiongxin welcomed Pei Yuanqing back, he couldn't help but cursed. The Wei army was looking at them all the way. This time they fought against the Tang army, but they met their opponents. This time, they could be regarded as experiencing the shaking of the sky. Under the thunder, the enemy felt it.

Although he was angry, after this battle, he did not dare to send troops into the city rashly. The enemy also had explosive weapons. Although they did not have Vulcan cannons like them, they could not get any favors in the city battle situation.

"Military advisor, do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?" Shan Xiongxin couldn't help but look at Xu Maogong. At this time, it was the military advisor who came out to do something.

Xu Maogong shook his head: "Now it seems that if you want to capture Luoyang, you will have to pay a heavy price, and the city of Luoyang captured in this way will probably be in ruins!"

In a normal battle, unless you are surrounded, how can you see 90% battle damage? This means that the soldiers cannot even escape.

The Lord created a thunder that shook the sky, which may not be a good thing for the world!

"They may not have so much thunder in their hands." Shan Xiongxin frowned.

Lu Bu has a whole set of workshops for making thunderbolts here. Even so, they still have to plan their use of thunderbolts and Vulcan cannons in every battle. How many days has it been since Li Tang had thunder? They have the ability to use thunder just like here.

"Then it depends on how much life the general is willing to sacrifice!" Xu Maogong said helplessly.

He also knew that there were definitely not as many Li Tanglei as here, but he didn't know how many there were, and no matter how many there were, they would have to sacrifice the lives of soldiers to add to them.

Shan Xiongxin was silent after hearing the words. This is a very heavy topic. In the past, if you were fighting, life and death were left to your fate. At least there was hope of survival. But now with this kind of terrain and situation, it is really like forcing people to move up knowing that they will die. .

They are all soldiers who have been trained so hard, who would be willing to just let people die?

"Is there no other way?" Shan Xiongxin said unwillingly.

"Yes, but we need to discuss it with the Crown Prince." Xu Mao said impartially.

Shan Xiongxin nodded. He knew what Xu Maogong meant. It would be fine if Lu Bu was not here. When it comes to major decisions, the two of them can decide. But now that Lu Bu is around, Lu Bu's attitude must be considered when making major decisions. , discuss it with Lu Bu first.

And Xu Maogong said this, obviously the movement will not be small.

At that moment, the two handed over their affairs to Qin Qiong and prepared to discuss with Lü Bu. As soon as they left the camp, they saw someone sent by Lü Bu coming to summon them to see him.

The two of them did not dare to neglect, and quickly followed the messenger general to Lu Bu's tent. On Lu Bu's side, in addition to brothers Xiong Kuohai, Luo Cheng, and Luo Song, there was another person, none other than Fang Xuanling.

"How is Yuan Qing's injury?" After the two greeted each other, Lu Bu did not directly discuss the strategy to defeat the enemy, but frowned and asked.

"They were all superficial injuries, but the bombing was serious." Shan Xiongxin sighed and said, "I passed out when I came back."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "I'll go take a look later."

Everyone suddenly remembered that the person in front of them was also a doctor, and one of the most powerful ones in the world.

"We recruited you two here because of the Luoyang matter. I guess Li Shimin also saw that our army has a hidden hand and did not dare to rush out of the city to fight. He wanted to use Luoyang City to consume our army." Lu Bu looked at the two of them. , frowned and said: "When we come here this time, the army has enough thunder thunders. Their so-called divine thunders are also available in the army. There is also a new kind that can be buried underground. When the enemy comes, pull the fuse and explode. It’s not difficult to compare to this, but if we really attack Luoyang, not only will our soldiers suffer heavy casualties, but the people of Luoyang will also not be able to escape disaster.”

In a head-to-head fight, Lu Bu would definitely not be afraid of Li Tang. He was the ancestor who played with gunpowder. The Shenwu Lei that Li Tang was using now had only one use. Lu Bu's thunder could be used to create tricks.

But Lu Bu didn't want to fight hard. One was because he felt sorry for the casualties of the soldiers, and the other was that it was impossible to say that this kind of thunder war would not affect the people at all if it started in the city.

His original intention of using gunpowder was to end the war as soon as possible rather than to destroy lives.

Shan Xiongxin and Xu Maogong nodded. They did not agree with the attack. Shan Xiongxin looked at Xu Maogong and said, "Didn't Duke Mao just say that he wanted to discuss with the Crown Prince?"

Xu Maogong nodded, looked at Lu Bu and said, "Your Majesty, I'm here to see if we can bypass Luoyang, break through Tongguan first, and then take Chang'an?"

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Xu Maogong and smiled when he heard this: "Maogong's method is the same as Mr. Fang's strategy."

Lu Bu recruited Xu Maogong and Shan Xiongxin precisely because of Fang Xuanling's advice.

The current situation is very simple. If the Tang army is willing to go out of the city to fight, Lu Bu's weapons can completely defeat him. But the Tang army is unwilling to go out to fight, and Lu Bu doesn't want to suffer too many casualties, so the only option is to besiege the city.

The problem is that Luoyang has sufficient grain and grass reserves. It would be difficult to trap the Tang army in a siege. But to put it another way, the main force of the Tang army is here, so why bother to confront him head-on? Taking advantage of this opportunity to capture Chang'an, Li Shimin would be trapped in an isolated city.

Of course, there is a problem. The supply line is interrupted, but it is not a big problem. Moreover, if Li Shimin comes out of the city to fight, then everyone will fight in Luoyang. If not, then we can take this opportunity to seize Chang'an. , swept away Li Shimin's territory in one fell swoop, and when only Luoyang was left, it would be a waste.

Xu Maogong looked at Fang Xuanling, and Fang Xuanling hurriedly saluted Xu Maogong: "I'm showing my embarrassment."

"Where." Xu Maogong shook his head, looked at Lu Bu and said, "The prince's intention..."

The strength of the two sides is now about the same, but in terms of equipment, Lu Bu has completely beaten the Tang army and is fully capable of dividing the troops to fight. It would be best if the Tang army can be led out of the city.

"Of course I will act according to the plan!" Lu Bu said with a smile: "After I visit Yuan Qing, you will send troops tomorrow. I will stay and fight with Li Shimin."

"yes!"
