They make trebuchets and so do we. This rocky beach doesn't have much else but a lot of pebbles.
I still have the stone for the pillar foundation of the house, which weighs more than 100 kilograms.
Let's see who among us can defeat whom.
Yang Fan quickly turned on his computer and entered the Guns N' Roses group for help.
"Boss and ladies, whoever has the blueprint of the trebuchet can give me a copy. Thank you very much. I will reward you with copper coins from the Ming Dynasty."
Pharaoh's slipper-bearing officer: The eleventh man came up so early, I'm still having lunch.
The beautiful girl from the Medici family: Posted a yawning icon. She just fell asleep. Oh, you men don’t take beauty sleep at noon? You are really strange people.
The previous life of the fan was a potato: trebuchet, you can have this one, be it a Roman ballista, a gravity trebuchet, a return cannon, a counterweight trebuchet, or a counterweight trebuchet.
Yang Fan didn't expect that the trebuchet had so many tricks up its sleeve. He was a little confused for a moment.
Shishiro: I have dried beech wood here, but I don’t know what kind of trebuchet I can make.
Pharaoh's slipper-bearing officer: Apart from Roman ballistae, this one is a torsion trebuchet. That one needs to be made with animal sinews, beef tendons, etc. There is no way it can't be made.
The beautiful girl of the Medici family: It takes a lot of people to pull back the cannon. Where can I find these people? It’s not fun. If you want to play, make a late European trebuchet with two rollers and people running around like mice.
The drum rotates to lift the counterweight box for the trebuchet. This large type can throw a 75 kilogram weight to 300 meters away. How cool is it? If you make it, don't forget to send a video for everyone to enjoy.
Shishiro: Miss, drawings! Drawings! I want to make a documentary. I have found all the extras, and I will make a special feature on ancient city sieges.
The beautiful girl of the Medici family: This is for you. It was designed and manufactured by enthusiasts in Europe. It is more reasonable than the ancient design and is easy to manufacture. They also took a video. You can make one for fun.
Pharaoh's slipper-wielding officer: Great, there must be not only heavy ones on the battlefield, but also light ones! The heavy ones fire very slowly, while the light ones can hit close, but they fire fast! Here you go, this is
A small trebuchet is simple to make and can throw 20 kilograms of live ammunition fifty meters.
Eleventh Man: Hold your fists, I will present you with a complete set of copper coins from the Tianqi Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty. Please give me your mailing address.
After getting off the Internet, Yang Fan shouted to the door, "Mingyan, call Old Man Zhang and the others."
In the city tower, Old Man Zhang and others looked at the drawings printed by the printer and were very surprised. They clicked their tongues and whispered to each other for a while: "Proprietor, these two machines are very delicate and require the cooperation of a blacksmith. They need some iron and steel.
Copper parts. This large one is more labor-intensive, and the rollers are more troublesome. It takes about three days to make one. This small one can be made in half a day, and this one is simply dragged by manpower."
"Okay, divide the people into two groups. The older one will make one for experiment first, and the younger one will make twenty first. I will transfer the remaining one hundred carpenters over, and give you the other three hundred strong men. The official hall will be demolished.
I’ll give you all the beech wood that comes down. Hurry up and build it.”
After dark, a fleet of ten large cargo ships arrived again, bringing food and various supplies. One hundred carpenters who stayed in Dongshan Camp were also urgently transferred over. The Shangzi Camp and Xiazi Camp had gone back for repairs.
After replenishing the staff from the ore processing workers, we returned to the village by boat.
Abdul Bayan has received the news that a fleet has entered the Zhaizi pier. He is a little upset.
This small castle is less than one mile in circumference and is very compact. There are wells in the city and water transportation by rivers. There is water, food, ammunition, and reinforcements. A siege is useless and can only rely on manpower.
Attack, beat down hard.
Early the next morning, with their backs to the rising sun and the beating of war drums, more than two thousand bandits, under the pressure of the Qing soldiers and under the leadership of various leaders, lined up in military formation and started to attack carrying the ladders they had just made yesterday.
The bark on the ladder has not been removed and it is in a very crude state.
Yang Fan saw on the tower that their trebuchet was not in action, it must have not been ready yet.
In this way, the tower is still safe, and you can still command here. If the trebuchet comes up, you should quickly move to the watchtower on the other side of the pier.
"Everyone is here, don't fire, wait for orders." Mo Zuo shouted loudly.
"Everyone huddle behind the wall and don't show your head to avoid being shot by bows and arrows." The team leader and the team leaders also shouted loudly.
Wang Zongqi: "Sir, the south is the main direction of attack, and the west is mountains and bushes, which cannot move too many people. The east is the river, and the north is full of bushes, making it difficult to move. Only the south has flat terrain, which is conducive to siege weapons.
Transportation. We just focus on defending the south."
"Well, okay, move all the archers to the south wall."
Baihusuo originally had more than fifty bows and arrows. This time, two hundred cavalry bows were seized from the two hundred cavalry that were eliminated. There were not so many people who could shoot arrows, so they had to find two hundred people who could shoot bows.
Those who are full will be thrown into the sky at a 45-degree angle, and every one they bump into will be counted as one.
Yang Fan's fire gun can only attack enemies about thirty meters away at most, and lacks long-range weapons.
Yesterday we tested it and found that a riding bow thrown like this could shoot to 170 meters.
Yang Fan ordered that starting at 150 meters, and going back, a wooden pole of a different color should be set up every 20 meters as a mark. When the time comes, you can adjust the range through the elevation angle when you see where the arrow lands.
The bandits and bandits wore messy clothes. A few of the leaders wore leather armor, and more were clothed. The weapons in their hands were also varied, including waist knives, spears, maces, nine-ring ghost-headed knives, and even
There are also those holding whistle sticks.
The team in front has already passed the 150-meter mark.
Yang Fan nodded.
Grinding table shouted with an iron trumpet: "Archer, throw"
The two hundred and fifty archers on the south wall immediately began to shoot. They didn't need to aim, they just shot towards the sky. These horse bandits had no armor, and the arrows falling from the sky were enough to penetrate them.
Suddenly, a burst of arrows fell from the sky like rain.
"Ah!" There was a chorus of screams.
The attacking formation was relatively dense, and a large number of bandits were shot down directly. At least forty or fifty people were shot in this wave.
"Run quickly, spread out, and you can avoid the bows and arrows by running over," the one-eyed dragon shouted loudly.
The bandits obviously sped up and started running.
The archers on the city wall fired quickly without looking at the results. Master Mo Zuo said that after shooting this pot, they could go down and rest.
Round after round of shooting, some of the bandits were pierced by arrows from time to time and fell to the ground screaming.
Thirty arrows were all shot out within a few minutes. The archers who had shot all their arrows quickly went down to the city wall to rest. Their arms were so sore that they could not lift them up and needed to rest for a while.
At a distance of 150 meters, more than 200 bandits fell. They finally reached a place 30 meters outside the city wall.
"Hurry up the ladder and get ready to climb the city. The Master of the Eight Banners said that if you don't seal the sword for three days after entering the city, you can rob it as you like." Feitianhu roared loudly.
