Principles such as levers and pulleys were fully utilized. Manpower and machinery were combined, and the entire city was mobilized to dig out those dense pits.
After Yizhique is eliminated, it will have to be filled in, otherwise it will be inconvenient for people to go out.
"Your Majesty, Princess, the enemy's siege vehicles are very powerful, and the muskets cannot penetrate them. There are no artillery in the city, so there is some trouble."
After hearing the report, Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu immediately went to the watchtower to take a look. Sure enough, the enemy's siege vehicle was covered with thick iron sheets and a very strong wooden stick frame. People hiding behind it could not hit it at all.
Unless you are using artillery, which needs to be more accurate and can directly scatter the siege vehicles, it will be difficult to deal with them.
If they were allowed to get to the city, there would be more and more people, which would be troublesome.
Shen Mingzhu frowned. It was really inconvenient not to have a cannon like the Tiger Cannon. She discussed with Xiao Xian for a while, "Use the catapult specifically to deal with the siege vehicles, and attack the siege vehicles."
In addition to stones, it is best to use kerosene as well. As long as it can make them burn, it can be considered as achieving the goal.
The accuracy was not good at first, but it was operated by a few skilled veterans, and the accuracy was soon achieved, and a few siege engines were also scattered.
"It worked!"
The guards on the city wall cheered happily, and the coalition forces got off the siege vehicles and began to set up ladders to attack the city again.
This time, there were more people because of the siege engines, and the cover of the arrow rain also allowed them to climb up.
Chu Ji shouted, "Thieves, let them always taste the taste of gold water!"
Dozens of cauldrons were lined up on the city wall, boiling excrement water, steaming and stinking to the sky. When the enemy climbed into the air, a few soldiers in protective clothing would overturn the cauldrons.
Go down.
"ah!"
Silent screams came, and the coalition troops who were climbing up were burned to pieces, and even their bones were exposed at once. The gold juice was poisonous, so they immediately lost their combat effectiveness. They fell from the ladder and wailed in the dust.
.
The bacteria will spread and they will die of pain in a few days.
"This works really well!" Chu Ji laughed loudly, "Tell the people in the city that no one can waste any excrement and water, save it all for me, and reward these mice with their hard work!"
Because the gold juice and muskets were too powerful, the enemy's second siege was broken up. However, this time several cesspits were almost bottomed out. Chu Ji went to urge everyone to hurry up and let the whole city come to build the city.
manure.
Boku failed to attack twice, but this time he did not punish anyone, but fell into deep thought.
Since the enemy temporarily stopped attacking, the soldiers on the city wall were able to take turns to eat, rest, inspect, and repair weapons.
Thousands of muskets were also scrapped due to this intensive firing, and hundreds more were damaged, and hundreds more had problems and needed to be repaired.
Fortunately, there were craftsmen who came with the army, and they also brought tools and iron, so they could start repairs at any time.
Moreover, they have been busy in the city without stopping for a moment, repairing weapons, continuing to make twisted letters, and making ammunition.
There were piles of enemy corpses under the city wall, but the enemies did not dare to come to snatch the corpses, because if they entered the shooting range, they would immediately become corpses, so they did not come to snatch them.
And the people in the city can't clean up the battlefield, so both sides can only waste it.
Shen Mingzhu did not allow anyone to leave the city unless the enemy retreated at least thirty miles.
