Chapter 292

~5 min read 986 words

Immediately after, screams rang out one after another.

This made Liu Sanji feel like he was on pins and needles, and he turned his head to look.

He saw that many of his comrades within his line of sight were covering their eyes, their faces full of pupils!

A chill rose from Liu Sanji's heart!

What exactly was this white powder?

But those affected were the soldiers in the middle, only a small portion.

The vanguard truly attacking the city had already reached the foot of Changancheng!

They were crazily using scaling ladders to climb toward Changancheng.

On Changancheng.

Lu Zhen had a tall figure and wore black battle armor; a breeze blew by, stirring the few strands of white hair at his temples.

He laughed loudly, "If Heaven had not produced me, Lu Zhen, the defense of the city would be like the long night for eternity!"

"Bring the quicklime!"

A Chu army soldier took the lead, his mind filled with the glory of being the first to climb and capture the city.

He climbed crazily, but when he reached halfway, he saw an aged face with a cold sneer appear on the city wall.

Immediately after, a pottery jar fell from his hand!

Bang!

The white powder entered his eyes instantly!

The next moment, his expression turned green.

Pain!

A burning, stinging pain!

But it wasn't over yet; water carrying the smell of rotting animals fell from the city wall, drenching him!

In just a few seconds, a sizzling sound rang out on his body!

His skin, his whole body, was extremely painful!

Especially his face, which was exposed, and his eyes!

That pain was unbearable!

Ah!!!

"My eyes!!"

Almost instantly, a large blister visible to the naked eye rose on his violently reacting face.

Pain!

Too painful!

Not only this Chu army soldier, almost all the Chu soldiers charging at the very front could not escape this disaster!

Accompanied by the Da Qian soldiers firing at full power, whether it was pottery jars or throwing quicklime, with the help of the strong wind, it enveloped the Chu army below.

Plus that dirty water that could react with the quicklime!

The wails of the Chu army shook the heavens!

That scene was simply shocking.

Quicklime in the eyes was an unbearable pain, let alone trying to fight to capture the city!

Behind them, the Chu soldiers who were continuously charging up were all chilled with fear.

They watched their comrades covering their eyes and letting out shrill screams!

An invisible fear swept over everyone!

What exactly was that terrifying white powder?

Why was it so terrifying when mixed with water!

Liu Sanji watched from afar, and a chill spread in his heart!

Lu Zhen laughed heartily, as if he were a god of war.

Even if he were only defending Changancheng, with this quicklime, he, Lu Zhen, was invincible in the world.

He was now the god who controlled the eyes on the battlefield of the Seven Kingdoms!

Below the city wall.

The Chu army was wailing.

This quicklime was too vicious; once it entered the eyes.

They instantly lost their combat effectiveness!

"Ah! My eyes, I can't see anything!"

"Pain!"

"Too painful!"

"Can't take it anymore!"

"What exactly is this white powder? It spilled into my crotch, and with water, why is it so painful instantly!"

"Brothers, help me, chop this thing off for me!"

After the quicklime ended, Da Qian brought out giant rocks and falling logs.

Then there was alcohol plus burning arrows!

These methods made the Chu army miserable.

This battle lasted for a full two hours; Da Qian lost thousands of people, but the Chu army was even more miserable!

For Da Qian, this was an undisputed great victory!

Wu Zhao watched the Chu army retreating like a tide, and she was also excited.

Within one day, the Chu army attacked twice, and the second attack lasted for more than two hours.

But they were all repelled by Da Qian, and with minimal casualties.

"I never thought that quicklime could also kill the enemy!"

Wu Zhao's gaze was full of wonder.

She thought of the scene she had just seen and was moved.

Gao Yang came to Wu Zhao's side and looked at the Chu army camp.

"Compared to the chemical power of quicklime, the second layer of methods should also be put to use."

"The Chu army tonight, I'm afraid, will not have an easy time."

Then, Gao Yang looked at Wu Zhao, "Your Majesty, take this opportunity to mobilize the people of Changancheng!"

Wu Zhao waved her dragon robe and said domineeringly, "Rest assured, with such a great victory, I will naturally spread it throughout Changancheng to boost morale!"

"Your Majesty misunderstands; my meaning is that besides using this great victory to boost the morale of the people of Changancheng, we must also mobilize them to donate limestone, as well as all sorts of items to kill the enemy!"

"Besides the water of rotting animals, some dirty things are also sharp weapons for killing the enemy!"

"I just had a flash of inspiration, another idea!"

Upon hearing this, the officials all looked at Gao Yang.

Another idea?

Wu Zhao couldn't help but ask curiously, "What else?"

Gao Yang said word by word!

"Corpse oil!"

On the walls of Changancheng.

Once these words were spoken.

The officials all felt their scalps go numb.

Gao Feng had black lines on his forehead; he immediately stood out and said, "Wicked son, in front of His Majesty, one must be cautious in speech and action."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

Gao Tianlong was also startled.

This thing must not be used!

It is too damaging to morality!

Wu Zhao looked at Gao Yang's face, which didn't look like he was joking, and felt a bit messy in the wind.

She was also startled!

He truly lives up to being Gao Yang.
