Under the commander's flag of the Qin army, Liang Cheng's eyes were shining, and his younger brother Liang Yun said bitterly: "Liu Jinu can actually use this method to block the flying stones from attacking the city. It is incredible. Commander, now
what should we do?"
Liang Cheng sneered and said: "He can use cloth to protect against flying stones, can he also use this to protect against bed crossbows? Give me all twenty bed crossbows, let me see if he can use these rags to protect him this time
city!"
In front of more than a hundred trebuchets, three thousand armored troops suddenly moved out of the way. The densely packed heavy infantry phalanx was like chopping waves. More than twenty huge crossbows that were three to four feet long and two people high, started from
It appeared in the crowd, and these bed crossbows were equipped with seven horse spears. The middle one was one foot long, like a giant axe, and there were three auxiliary spears on both sides, and there were four or five auxiliary spears on each side.
It is a foot long and looks like the long arrow in the eight-stone bull-running crossbow. The triangular arrowhead shines with a cold light. Even the feathers on the tail wing are made of iron, making it intimidating.
General Wang Yong rode a horse and patrolled behind these bed crossbows. This guy was responsible for various mechanical war equipment during the Yan Kingdom. After Murong Chui surrendered to Qin, he was quickly reused. Wang Yong was designing these beds.
When the crossbows were made, he was still supervising the production. Now, it is most appropriate for the chief builder to be responsible for the launch of these powerful weapons.
The cold wind on the battlefield blew Wang Yong's beard and hair, ruffling the wrinkles on his face. More than twenty steps, the crossbow was ready in front of him, five hundred steps away from the city, this was Liang Cheng
As he had specifically told me, everything is ready now, just waiting for his order to launch.
Wang Yong slowly raised the big sword in his hand and slammed it down. Following his movement, more than twenty steps of crossbows began to roar at the same time. The sound was like thunder, and the earth was shaking. Every time
With one launch, the bed crossbow would be pushed back a full three feet. If it were not for the pulleys and retreat rails under its wooden chassis, such a launch would have caused the entire bed crossbow to collapse.
Wang Xian was wearing leather armor and riding an inconspicuous thin horse. He was hiding behind the military formation. He was more than 700 steps away from the city wall. However, from this position, he could clearly see the effect of the attack.
The cloth and cotton belts are completely unable to block the powerful firing of these bed crossbows, and the piercing power of these seven flying broken spears is unparalleled. These several layers of thick cloth are not able to block the flying of these bed crossbows.
In front of the wall, it was like paper that could be penetrated as soon as it was penetrated. However, on the city wall behind, it was as if someone had used a huge hammer to drive nails in. Densely packed poles were inserted, and some cracks even appeared.
.
A volley came down, and hundreds of poles were nailed to the opposite city wall. Those cloths were riddled with holes, and some were even hit directly to the top of the city, and the crenellations of the city wall behind
There, some more cloth was hung down urgently to cover up the damage to the city wall, but anyone with a discerning eye could still tell at a glance that this round of attacks had indeed achieved great results.
Wang Yong smiled and gently twirled his beard: "How about it, Lord Governor, have you seen what the ultimate killer weapon is? Huh, what kind of crossbows can Liu Jinu make at the top of the city? You think I can do it?"
Can't you get a bed crossbow? Hehehehehe."
Wang Xian's mouth was so wide open that he could hardly close it. Although Wang Yong repeatedly told him how powerful this bed crossbow was, he didn't want to believe it at all. It wasn't until he saw it with his own eyes that he realized how wonderful the world is.
It exceeded his imagination. He swallowed a sip of saliva and said: "General Wang, you are so talented, but I am short-sighted and don't believe you can come up with this thing. I apologize to you and make amends."
Wang Yong laughed and waved his hand: "Sir, you and I are working together, so it goes without saying. But do you know why I push these bed crossbows five hundred steps away from the city wall?"
Wang Xian's eyes lit up: "Yes, you said this thing can hit seven hundred steps, but five hundred steps is the range of the crossbow at the top of the city. If these things are fired on the city, they can also hit us."
"
Wang Yong's eyes flashed coldly: "I just want them to fight back, so that I know where their killer weapons are hidden. Hum, as long as their positions are exposed, these powerful city defense weapons are difficult to move. We
Here you can use catapults and bed crossbows to destroy these defensive weapons. Do you understand?"
Wang Xian suddenly understood, nodded convincingly, and suddenly frowned: "But, our bed crossbow is hit, what should we do? Didn't you say that there are only twenty of these things, and if you hit one, you will miss one.
?”
Wang Yong laughed and waved his hand: "Five hundred steps is the limit range of the eight-bow crossbow. How can it be so easy to hit? Unless there is a favorable wind, it is possible to fly here, but the strength is no longer enough. Look, I
Let the sergeants guarding the bed crossbows be equipped with large iron shields. If a crossbow really flies here, use the iron shield to block it, and it shouldn't be able to hurt the bed crossbows."
Wang Xian breathed a sigh of relief: "In that case, let's go to the front so that we can get closer to the commander. Standing behind the formation, we can't always see clearly."
Wang Yong curled up his lips, looked around, and whispered: "You're stupid, the bed crossbow can't hurt, but it can hurt us. It's safe here, and you can see the effect of the siege. Run away."
If you are within range of others, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and if you are killed by a crossbow, it will be too late to cry."
Wang Xian smiled and shook his head: "General Wang, you are good at everything else, but you are not good at this. You are too afraid of death. You see, you are not as good as a scholar like me. With my subordinates protecting you, you
What are you afraid of?" As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a black-faced guard beside him picked up two giant iron rods as thick as a buffalo's legs and said, "A crossbow gun is really coming, and there are two men from the humble gang blocking it.
Just knock it off."
Wang Yong's face turned slightly red, and he whispered: "If they fire all their crossbows, and they happen to fly to us one after another, I'm afraid that even with the bravery of this brave man, they won't be able to protect us.
It’s quite nice here, why don’t you go to the front?”
Wang Xian shook his head helplessly: "Okay, I have to protect you today, I'm afraid I won't even be able to attack the city. By the way, General Wang, I have already fired four or five rounds, and there is no one on the city."
The reaction is to keep hanging new cloth, what do they want to do?"
Wang Yong's face changed slightly. He looked at the poles that were already densely covered on the city wall and murmured to himself: "It's strange. Why is it so quiet at the top of the city? You really can't fight back?
Huh, give me the order and ask the sergeants in front to raise the angle of fire and hit his tower, I don’t believe they can bear it!"
