Chapter 416 Miracles
Chapter 416 Miracle
After all, Yao Si was still worried. After Zhongji went back to lie down, he still stood at the top of the city and looked towards the west in the direction of Dun'an Village.
I fell asleep leaning against the city wall, but at dawn, I was suddenly awakened by the faint cheers coming from the wind.
"What's going on?" Yao Si grabbed a sergeant and asked.
The sergeant looked at Dun'an Village, which was more than ten miles away: "I don't know, I can't hear it clearly. It seems to be coming from over there!"
…
In the Xixia camp, Liang Zuo was encouraging the sergeants: "On this day last year, I sent envoys to celebrate the enthronement of the Song Dynasty king, but what did they do?!"
"Reject the famous horses that we pay tribute to, refuse to give us books, humiliate our envoys, and drive them out of the country!"
"I can't bear this kind of shame! Can you bear it?"
The Xixia sergeants drew their swords and waved them to the sky: "No! No! No!"
Liang Zuo said: "This year, Weizhou opened the market to the Tibetan people, except Daxia, who was excluded; in July, he spied on the Tiandu camp and stole my dragon horse; in September, the cavalry invaded Tiandu Mountain, almost
Seized Shimen Gorge! I want to ask, what happened to my warriors?! Are your blood warriors still there?!"
Countless Xixia warriors had tears in their eyes. They were worried about the humiliation of their ministers and wanted to humiliate their ministers to death!
"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"
Liang Zuo drew out his sword and pointed at Dun'an Village: "Break it, and behind it is Weizhou! There are countless money valleys, women, cattle and horses, fine wine, and silk!"
"The Song court made a fool of themselves and sent a lucky young man to a high-ranking official position. He has nothing to offer except his sharp arrows!"
"Dun'an Village has been besieged for several days, and the water source in the village has long been cut off, but a heavy rain may bring it back to life."
"It took us two months and countless lives to get here!"
"My warriors, you have to compete with the sky for time! Let Song Ting see our strength and tenacity! Let them know the price of humiliating us!"
"The first one to climb will be rewarded with fifty oxen, five hundred sheep, fifty gold, and an officer to command the army!"
"Whoever captures Su Mingrun will be rewarded with 500 oxen, 1,000 sheep, 300 gold, and the governor of Guanzhou!"
"Whoever enters Weizhou first will be the lord of Weizhou!"
The warriors immediately cheered.
However, at this moment, more intense cheers came from Dun'an Village: "Yixi Weishe! Yixi Weishe!"
…
In Dun'an Village, Su You had just completed a large-scale superstitious activity.
More than a dozen leaders of the Shuqu tribe were punished by military law. Su You said that this was to offer sacrifices to the Dragon King of Jinghe River.
Then he ordered people from the engineering department to step on the water wheel and pour the remaining water in the pool into two deep wells.
When the water reached the wellhead, the engineering team turned on the windmill's clutch, and saw clear springs gurgling out automatically from the two deep wells.
In the two ponds, the water level is rising almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Tibetan people who were watching the execution of the traitors in the church were so shocked by this scene that they knelt all over the ground. The old leader was so excited that he raised his arms and shouted: "This is a miracle! Yixi Weishe! God protects me!"
The Tibetan people shouted in unison: "Yixi Weishe! Yixi Weishe!"
Su You was wearing a fifth-grade court uniform, standing on the general stage, facing the rising sun, and said with full force, "The Xia people want to fight! Then fight to the death!"
"Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"
All the sergeants, village warriors, border households, and familiar Tibetans all roared with murderous intent at this moment.
…
The most brutal siege battle finally kicked off.
On top of the city, crossbows were set up one after another behind loose cowhide and rope nets. The soldiers creaked and shook the turntable to pull the crossbow arms, and then placed the solid porcelain bullets in place.
Xiangyong was also organized, rescue teams, transport teams, and some skilled archers were temporarily issued crane-shank crossbows to supplement the crossbow troops.
While the Tibetan people were protecting their cattle, sheep, and horses from being frightened, they were also polishing their armor and excitedly preparing to go out to fight in the city.
They are now the most loyal group of people to Suyou, because behind Yixi Weishe are the gods of the heavens!
No one was stupid. The trenches outside Weizhou City were immediately put to use by the Xixia people. They cut wood from the surrounding mountains and built it on top of the trenches. It served as a platform and bridge for advancing, as well as a cover for the trenches. The soldiers could
Pass through the tunnel below and assemble at the end of the trench, only a hundred steps away from Dun'an Village.
Drums rumbled in the Xixia army, and a large number of heavy troops carried horizontal ladders across the wooden bridge and rushed towards the village wall.
The ballistas and crane-shank crossbows on the wall began to fire, and a porcelain bullet swept across the advancing team. Blood rained down, muscles and bones were broken, and ladders were destroyed and people died.
More people fell on the march carrying crossbows. However, the desperate advance of the baggage soldiers still allowed many ladders to be erected on the wall of the village.
Countless Xixia warriors screamed and jumped out of the tunnel exit, swarming like ants towards the limited number of ladders.
However, the ladder can only be placed on a flat surface. The design of the Snowflake Bastion is destined that the warriors who climb the ladder will face brutal shots from a 270-degree range!
Moreover, the design holes of the bastion are multi-layered. From top to bottom, there are countless passages and caves for hiding soldiers in the entire city wall. Crossbowmen hide in them, which makes the Xixia soldiers who climb up suffer a lot.
The Xixia people also immediately realized that there were holes in the wall! It was like a termite nest, and its sturdiness was worrisome!
Liang Yi Duo Mi immediately adjusted his tactics and put forward the crossbowmen to suppress the firepower at the top of the city and cover the main attack force;
The Poxi army followed closely on camels and fired stone bullets in an attempt to destroy part of the city wall.
However, the condescending giant crossbows made the Xixia people look pale. Apart from suppressing the crossbowmen at the top of the city, the strong crossbow army had no way to deal with the Song army hiding in the fortress pits.
In front of each ballista, there is a huge rattan curved baffle. A few stone bullets that were lucky enough to escape the rope net and the wet rawhide hit the ballista, and were also struck by the unique rattan board.
Elasticity and design spring to both sides.
The Poxi Army's shooting range was still short, so a dozen brave warriors on horseback drove the camels across the platform and rushed to the village gate, trying to take advantage of their mobility to move and shoot.
However, the strength of the hollow wall is far beyond the imagination of the Xia people.
Glass water, a soil solidifier used in later engineering rescue projects, had long been sent into the village wall by Su You through pre-embedded bamboo tubes. At this moment, the Dun'an village is as solid as gold and stone.
What they didn't even know was that the first-generation ballistae of the Erlin Department was playing ballistae on the ship.
Since then, hitting moving targets, or hitting fixed targets while moving, has always been a practical subject for them.
Coupled with the help of the science and engineering team around him, the reckless Po Xijun soon got a taste of its power.
A five-pound porcelain bullet carries so much kinetic energy that not even an elephant can carry it.
A camel narrowly escaped two porcelain bombs, and was hit in the head by a third porcelain bomb. After the horrifying impact, the huge camel's head turned into blood mist, and countless skulls and teeth were scattered everywhere.
.
The camel turned into a headless monster and fell to the ground. The bloody porcelain bullet continued to fly for a certain distance, hit the wooden platform and bounced up again. It swept under a camel and broke its legs. Finally,
He crashed into a group of crossbowmen and forced his way through a flesh and blood passage.
The drums from the rear were beating more and more fiercely. More soldiers ignored the two white and one red standard arrow fletching flying in the air, and ignored their colleagues who continued to fall around them. They dragged the ladders selflessly, rushed towards the wall, and then bit the steel.
The knife, like an ant before a rainstorm, crazily climbed towards the top of the city.
The scene was extremely tragic. Countless soldiers screamed and fell to the base of the village wall after being hit by arrows. They were stepped on by their companions as they climbed up the ladder.
At this moment, human life is as despicable as an ant.
Gradually, more and more ladders were erected on the wall of the village, and more and more people were clinging to the ladders.
Pots of golden soup were poured down, and the person who was about to reach the top of the wall was immediately burned to the point of letting go and covering his head and face with his hands. His instinct made him forget the danger of his position, and he screamed miserably and fell from the air to the ground.
Huge wooden rollers, soaked in water to increase their weight, fell from the city wall and rolled down the ladder, killing or injuring everyone in their path.
The village warriors on the top of the city worked together to stir the winch frantically, put hundreds of kilograms of rollers back on the roller truck, and shouted slogans to push them to the next ladder.
The remaining group used scratch hooks to put away the ladder. Many people were too selfless under the strong adrenaline secretion, and their bodies were exposed and shot by arrows intertwined in the air.
