Zhu Biao's eyes flashed for a moment, "It seems that Hu Gou took many of our craftsmen and made the wells so big!"
Eleven or twenty feet tall, it is comparable to the seven or eight-story buildings of the previous life on Earth. Thanks to the extraordinary craftsmanship of carpenters in this time and space, and the materials, toughness, and strength of some trees are far superior to similar ones on the previous life on Earth.
"Hu Qi wants the upper level to suppress us, and the lower level to build a plank to attack the city!" Yun Zheng said this very obvious reason.
"There seems to be a layer of things outside..." Zhu Tong said with some uncertainty. During the Battle of Huaiyuan, all Hu Qi used to attack the city were simple ladders. Wells, even among the equipment of the Han army, Medium and high-tech content.
"It's rawhide. It's made of horse and cowhide. It's not afraid of fire." Zhu Biao gave the answer. There was no other reason, because the well fence made by the Han army was also covered with this thing.
"Cloud ladders, flying ladders, rushing cars, crashing cars..." Looking at the siege equipment launched by Hu Ying one by one, Xie Shuyan named them one by one. "It took only ten days for Hu Gou to build so many. Siege equipment, determination is not small."
There is not a single sapling outside Beiling City. Most of these trees have to be transported to the city from other counties and then rushed to make them. So many and complicated tools have been assembled in a short period of time. Hu Qisuo showed determination. There is no need to explain it.
There are countless companies and camps outside the North City, but as far as I can see, the siege equipment is all placed in the two camps in front of them. There are so many different siege equipment that you can’t see them at a glance. Among the black cloud-like guards of Hu cavalry , creaking, creaking. Little by little, it moved towards the city.
It was not until half noon that the clear figure of Hu Jun appeared in the naked eyes of the soldiers at the head of the city. It was not until noon that twenty wells, ten rush vehicles, and hundreds of ladders were neatly arranged on the north city wall. On the front. Together with them are tens of thousands of elite bearded dogs wearing iron armor and holding scimitars and spears.
"Ta da, da da..."
"Ta da, da da..."
Uwetuo's most elite Golden Wolf Army rushed out from the Huqi formation in the northwest. Thousands of horses galloped, like a dark cloud wrapped in rolling thunder, moving from the horizon to the front of the formation at a very fast speed.
Taking Jinglan and the charging chariot as the base point, in the eyes of many Han soldiers at the head of Beiling City, the more than 7,000 Golden Wolf Army suddenly turned into two halves. There were more than 3,000 riders on each side, one on the left and the other on the right. Clouds floated from the left and right of the array like flowing water. While guarding the left and right wings, the soldiers pointed directly at the city gate. They were skillful in controlling the horses and changing formations freely. It was obvious that this Golden Wolf Army, which had not yet been fully replenished, still had the same combat strength. Maintaining the previous high level.
The Golden Wolf Army flew straight to a stone's throw in front of the pass, and then they all pressed down their horses. More than 3,000 cavalry on the left and right were arranged in hundreds of cavalry, with swords and guns shining brightly in the sun.
"Ho, ho. Hey..."
The Golden Wolf Army was in place, and the thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly disappeared, leaving only the slow voice still ringing in everyone's ears. The loud trumpet broke the silence on the field, and at the same time as the cavalry detachment flew in, the wells, rushing through The chariots, ladders and tens of thousands of soldiers stepped forward.
The towering well gate and the charging chariot are getting closer and closer. Hu soldiers are crowding around the slowly moving well gate. The rushing chariot is more like a group of slowly moving giants.
"General -" Feng Enjiang suddenly felt nervous and his heart beat faster. The towering "wooden towers" were like black clouds pressing on people's heads. Every squirm made people feel palpitations. , a kind of dullness.
"Are you actually feeling nervous?" How many battles have you fought behind Zhu Biao? Are you still nervous? Feng Enjiang himself found it incredible. But with a dry mouth, he felt that there seemed to be endless haze in the air all of a sudden.
Like condensation, a depressing atmosphere filled my heart.
There are really two different feelings between cavalry charging to kill the enemy and defending the city.
Raising his right hand slightly, Zhu Biao patted Feng Enjiang on the shoulder, "Watch with your eyes wide open to see how this general burns the fat pig!" In the telescope, Hu Qi's men and horses seemed to be able to stretch to the end of the world.
I don’t even know when people call me horse neighing
How many people are there? Looking at the dense layers of darkness, I guess
At least 100,000 troops were dispatched.
"Pass my general's order to test-fire the Thunderbolt Chariot——"
A triangular red flag. As soon as Zhu Biao finished speaking, he waved it three times vigorously on the city gate tower.
The twenty Pili cars that had been well organized in the city early on saw the signal and immediately started moving.
The long bow arm had been tightened. The commander gave an order, and with a muffled "bang" sound, the bow arm was raised high into the air. Two polished round stones quickly crossed the city wall from the left and right sides of the city gate tower.
, thrown towards Hu Bing's offensive camp.
It didn't hit the well, nor did it hit the chariot. Instead, it opened two bloody paths among the dense armored soldiers, and passed by the ladder with the stumps and broken arms of the two paths.
The round stone rolled five or six feet away in the queue of Hu soldiers, killing fifty or sixty unlucky Hu soldiers, killing and injuring them.
Pity these Hu soldiers who were surrounding them tightly. As soon as they saw the shadow of the Han army, they were stunned.
All the second artillery fire hit the target. Zhu Biao was so happy that he immediately ordered all the Thunderbolt vehicles to fire freely. The grade of his equipment was only C grade, with 10% added lethality instead of 10% accuracy, and the effect was not at all
obvious.
The squeaking sound of the turntable was heard, and the two Pili Cars that had fired took the time to return to their original position. After each of the remaining eighteen Pili Cars made another adjustment, they all let out a loud roar.
Stone balls weighing dozens of kilograms crossed the city wall and exploded fiercely, flying into the Hu soldiers' formation.
The sound of violent collisions became louder and louder, and in the large swaths of blood mist, no one in the well, the car, or the ladder was spared. Many vehicles were hit by the stone bombardment one after another.
"It's so damn strong!" Zhu Biao saw with his own eyes that a car was hit twice by stone bullets. The debris flying everywhere was terrible, but it was still moving forward slowly. Jinglan
The same is true. Compared with their huge bodies, if stones weighing dozens of kilograms are hit on them, even if the force of several thousand kilograms is not hit on the vital parts, they cannot be destroyed immediately. Only relatively simple ladders will break immediately after being hit by stone bullets.
The damage rate is relatively high, so there is almost no need for a second bomb.
Another stone bullet failed to hit any equipment and smashed into the still dense formation of the Hu soldiers. It almost penetrated from the middle to the back of the formation. It took away the arms and thighs of many people along the way, and penetrated and smashed the chests of many people.
After the head, flesh and blood were eroded, there was a shrill scream.
Another stone bullet accurately hit an advancing ladder. With a loud "boom", the ladder's wheels were broken into pieces, the wooden wheels flew around, and the heavy supports were swaying, causing everyone within ten feet around to break.
The Hu soldiers all panicked and retreated. The Hu soldiers around the place where the bullet hit were the fish in the pond. The fragments of wooden needles that were stirred up were beaten to pieces all over their bodies. Those who died were dead, and those who were alive rolled to the ground and howled bitterly.
stand up.
Amidst the whistling sound, stone bullets hit the Hu soldiers' formation one after another, or passed through the formation, bringing up a bloody mist of residual limbs, or hit the equipment, sending sawdust flying everywhere.
"Damn, Thunderbolt Chariot -" Uwetuo was angry and angry, and even more anxious. He couldn't bear to see the tragic scene after Hu Bing was hit, and he wished that he could use the well, rush the chariot, and the ladder to immediately put up the city wall.
Anyone who is hit by a stone bullet will be a mess of blood and flesh, with hands and feet cut off, and they will die immediately. Although those Hu soldiers are brave people, their psychological endurance cannot withstand such blows again and again. Every time When the wave of stones came over, the camp was in a violent commotion. It was only thanks to the copper ring and silver ring that the generals suppressed them with all their strength, they were able to force themselves forward and continue to push forward.
Wu Ji and others behind the formation looked at him kindly, and they all sucked in the air-conditioning. King Zeng kept talking about the Immortal Heaven. The sharpness of the Han army's stone cannons was really heart-stopping.
"Dharma King——" Wu Ji looked at the growth of Dharma King with eager expectation.
"Great Chan Yu Gengxin, I will go there in person tonight -" Dharma King Zengzhang solemnly replied.
The sharp stone cannons put great pressure on the morale of the army and must be destroyed. Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to conquer Beiling City.
One-third of the ladders were destroyed, six wells and two rams fell on the road. The more casualties were the Hu soldiers guarding the siege equipment, more than a thousand people.
But fortunately, they all got through it. Withstanding the bombardment of thunderbolt chariots, in two quarters of an hour, Hu Bing, who had exerted his potential to the extreme, brought the heavy well gates, rushing chariots, ladders, etc. closer to the 200 paces in front of the city.
The Thunderbolt Chariot fell silent after its last roar. If you want to get the stone bullet over the high city wall, the two hundred steps in front of the city wall will naturally become the Thunderbolt Chariot's blind spot. Maybe you can move the Thunderbolt Chariot backward and adjust its strength again, and the stone bullet will still return. It can continue to fire. However, the risk is too high. If you are not careful, the powerful stone bullets will bombard your own city wall. Seeing the Hugou crying and howling in pain under the stone bullets, the Han soldiers are very happy. , but if you reap the consequences, no one will be able to laugh.
The impact of stone bullets on soldiers is not really huge, but the inner pressure is enough to crush people.
Realizing that the stone bullets were no longer flying, the low morale of the Hu soldiers quickly strengthened, and the 30 points immediately soared to 70+. The Jinhuan Hu general who led the team raised the scimitar in his hand and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Break Beiling." , attack Beiling!"
"drink!"
Countless Hu Qi raised their arms in response, and their densely packed weapons reflected the light of fish scales.
"Kill the Han dogs!"
"Kill the Han dogs!" There was another forest of swords and guns, and a wave of cheers and roars.
This frantic roar could make Hu Bing forget his timidity and panic. It could make them forget their fear and retreat, and their morale would rise again.
"Ready the bed crossbow, light the fire——"
On the battlements spaced ten feet apart on the city wall, the feathers and arrows as thick as spears were wrapped with layers of coarse cloth soaked in grease. The fire was blown up, and a little higher, boom, small flames burned quickly. It illuminates everything in the dish building.
"Whoosh--" In the rapid and sharp roar that tore through the space, more than thirty thick feather arrows shot out. It was impossible to catch their shuttle figures in the air, and the clusters of arrows were like gun blades. They are deeply committed to their respective goals.
The huge penetrating force caused the layers of oilcloth wrapped around the feather arrows to throw countless hot oil droplets forward, and soon a large area of raging fire rose in the Hu Bing camp.
