Shen Mingzhu looked with clairvoyance and could only see the general outline of the enemy camp, but could not see the specific people clearly.
But in this way, she can also judge the movements of the enemy troops, and look at their general size to know if there is any secret conspiracy.
Soon someone came to report: "The enemy troops were active in the mountainous area and cut a lot of wood. The scouts suspected that they were trying to build siege engines."
If enough big trees are cut down to make a heavy siege vehicle, the muskets will not be able to penetrate it, and the artillery's accuracy is not good enough, so it may not be able to hit such a small target.
And if the enemy moves fast enough, the heavy siege vehicles can also move quickly to the city.
If their heavy siege vehicles cannot be effectively destroyed, it will also become a huge hidden danger.
At first, hundreds of siege engines came up, and the deputy general who defended the city asked people to wait for the siege engines to get closer and then break up the ropes.
But this time the siege vehicle was different. It was even covered with iron sheets. The muskets couldn't penetrate it at all. As for the artillery, the number of targets was small, the size was small, and it was not easy to aim, so for a while there was no target.
How many ways.
Soon the coalition troops began to board the city, and the musketeers on the city wall took aim, but soon discovered that they were carrying a big pot!
The cauldron is placed on the top of the head. If the ammunition hits it, it will fly out and it will not penetrate at all!
However, those coalition soldiers were not in a hurry to climb up. Instead, halfway through the attack, they seemed to be afraid of throwing big stones from the city wall and quickly retreated.
Everyone felt something was strange, and they were all on guard and no one dared to relax.
As a result, they came again the next day, this time with twice as many siege engines and large iron cauldrons. They went back after a while, and then came again the next day with even more.
After struggling like this for a few days, everyone soon felt that something was wrong. Instead of killing a few enemies, a lot of ammunition was consumed.
Finally, the lieutenants went to ask Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian for instructions. Shen Mingzhu gave him an order, which was to wait. If the enemy is not dispatched in large numbers, but only less than 10,000 people can be ignored, just let them crawl over.
As a result, the coalition soldiers pushed the heavy siege vehicles to the bottom of the city exhaustingly. As a result, the guards on the city wall did not fire a shot. They had to continue carrying the cauldron and seemed to be climbing the city wall, but on the city wall,
Still no movement.
Someone started to slack off, but when the cauldron tilted, he was shot several times and his life was taken away.
Then those coalition forces knew that the defenders on the city wall were staring at them intently and were not slacking off at all. If they slacked off, it would cost them their own lives.
But what to do next?
The city wall is more than ten meters high. There is a time when you have to climb to the end of the ladder. They are pretending to climb the ladder below, but they can't reach two-thirds of the way. It is really tiring to carry a big pot on their shoulders. It doesn't take long for someone to get too tired.
The pot was crooked and he was killed.
In the end, there was no other way, so Yi Zhique had no choice but to ask people to withdraw their troops.
They want to consume the opponent's ammunition, but the opponent quickly sees through it and won't be fooled anymore!
This method of consuming ammunition in Mianyang City failed.
For several days, there was no movement. Mianyang City also took the opportunity to take a rest, adjust its state, and not be too nervous.
There is enough food in the city to survive the winter, even if it lasts until next spring.
