The reason why Jia Xu is so concerned about the progress of the trebuchet is because Hariwan is still there. If he can seize the opportunity and kill the opponent directly, then Heldvar will definitely collapse in an instant and surrender to his Kaicheng.
"promise."
Although I don't understand why Jia Xu said this, he has given the order and obeyed it, so there must be no problems.
The soldiers of Heldewald looked at the Chinese trebuchets that were slowly being assembled outside the city. Anyone could feel the torment, but they were incompetent. There were no city defense weapons that could reach the distance of the opponent's trebuchets.
This is their biggest disadvantage and China's biggest advantage.
"The trebuchet has been fully assembled."
After a short period of time, the thirty trebuchets were assembled, and the other trebuchets were not used for the time being. Heldvar was as big as it was, and any more trebuchets would be a waste.
"Let it go as I say."
When he heard that the trebuchet was assembled, Jia Xu had nothing to say. Now he just took a gamble. If he succeeded in the gamble, then everything would be fine and the game was over. If he didn't succeed in the gamble, it didn't matter, just attack by force.
"promise."
Thirty trebuchets were lined up in a row, half of them were equipped with net-breaking bombs, and the other half were equipped with heavy bombs. After adjusting their positions, they all waited for the opportunity to launch.
"All trebuchets have it. The target tower is the target tower. The net-breaking bomb goes first, and the heavy bomb goes after. Release."
Upon hearing the captain's order, the trebuchet, which had been prepared for a long time, began to roar instantly. Fifteen net-breaking bombs were fired first, and the blades all over the body stretched instantly with the centrifugal force.
Following them were fifteen ordinary stone bullets, flying towards the tower with their own mission and following the net-breaking bombs.
"Get angry with the curtain to stop the stone bullets, and equip yourself with a draft shield to prepare for the Chinese shotguns."
The general in charge, Politra, commanded it very well, and they also conducted many drills, so that they could respond just one second faster during wartime and save one more life.
Curtains were raised one by one, and grass shields were placed overhead. The entire Heldvar city wall was also heavily guarded.
"General, look at the direction of the enemy's stone bullets, they seem to be heading towards the city tower."
Everyone was only paying attention to the trebuchet attacking them, but only one soldier noticed that the attack direction of the stone projectile was towards the city tower.
"No, tell the general to leave the tower immediately. It's too late. Ring the gold immediately. Ring the gold quickly."
Hearing that the direction of the trebuchet was the city tower, Politra was also frightened. You must know that Hariwan is sitting and commanding there now. If the enemy's attack target is really there, then Hariwan will be in danger.
"Dang-dang-dang-dang."
The clear sound of ringing gold resounded through the city. Everyone was stunned when they heard the sound. General Hariwan was stunned at first, and then immediately became angry. The ringing of gold was not even started yet. Politra was
I don’t want to live anymore.
"Come with me and see what Politra wants to do."
In anger, Harrivan left the tower directly under the escort of his personal guards and walked towards the direction of Politra.
As soon as Hariwan left the tower, the net-breaking bullets had already arrived. Even though the Kushan people had erected pieces of cloth, they were still unable to withstand the sharpness of the net-breaking bullets, and they were all torn into pieces.
The net-breaking bullets tore through the enemy's defense, and stone bullets followed one after another. Except for one of the fifteen heavy bullets, which missed slightly, all the remaining fourteen heavy bullets hit the tower.
"boom."
"boom."
"boom."
Blood and dust flew together, and stumps and broken walls danced together.
The originally majestic tower was destroyed in an instant, and there were corpses dripping with blood and stones from the collapsed tower everywhere.
"It's over."
Seeing that the city tower was destroyed by the Chinese, Politra knelt down and sat on the ground. Not only did he know that Hariwan was inside, but the Kushan soldiers on the entire city wall also knew that.
Now that the city tower is destroyed, Harivan is probably not immune to the disaster. If Harivan really dies, Haridwar may really fall apart like the city tower.
The entire Heldvar city wall was filled with a sense of death, and everyone seemed to have lost hope and stared steadily in the direction of the city tower.
"Cough cough cough."
A loud cough sounded in the smoke, and then Hariwan's stalwart figure slowly walked out.
"It's the general. The general is still here."
Seeing Hariwan's figure clearly, the soldiers at the front instantly burst into excited roars.
"The general is still there, the general is still there."
"God protects the general, protects Kushan, and protects Heldvar."
"This is a miracle."
The city wall that was originally filled with lifeless energy suddenly became full of life, and the morale of the soldiers also reached its peak in an instant. In their opinion, Hariwan's ability to survive such a certain death situation was a miracle, and this was God's protection.
Kushan, sheltered Hardvar.
"Politella."
Harivan came to Politra and looked at General Kushan who was kneeling on the ground.
"General, God is protecting you. It's great that you are fine."
Seeing Harivan really coming to him, Politra finally replied.
"Thank you for your Ming Jin. If I hadn't heard Ming Jin's voice and left the tower early, I might have died tragically under the Chinese trebuchet."
Hariwan was also filled with emotions. Now he finally understood why the other party asked for gold. The situation was urgent, and if he had not taken such unconventional measures, he might really have followed the tower.
"This is what subordinates should do, as long as the general is fine."
Politra shook his head, as long as Harivan was fine.
"Okay, tell the whole army to continue fighting. I want to see what other dirty tricks the Chinese can use."
Hariwan could be considered as escaping from death, and his mentality was very stable. Since God did not let him die under the Chinese trebuchet, he had to defend this last line of defense for Kushan.
"Commander, it seems that there is no hit."
Gao Shun stood next to Jia Xu, looking at the cheering city wall, and knew that the idea of sniping at Hariwan must have been shattered, otherwise the opponent would never be like this.
"It doesn't matter. It's just a casual move. It's good if it can achieve success. If not, it's better than nothing. Instruct the army to attack according to the original plan."
Jia Xu also shook his head. He had no hope for this move in the first place. Now that it didn't work, there is no need to be too depressed. Marching and fighting do not rely on luck. As long as he attacks with an upright division, the enemy will be killed by his own army.
under.
"promise."
The battle flag waved, and the trebuchet troops began to adjust their targets, and then launched heavy bombs one after another onto the walls of Heldvar.
"Every unit raised its curtains to defend against the enemy's trebuchet attack."
The Chinese trebuchets were launched one after another, and the curtains on the city wall were unfolded piece by piece to protect the soldiers behind.
Seeing that the enemy was well prepared, one round of net-breaking bullets soared into the sky, followed by heavy stone bullets to attack the city wall one after another.
In a short time, the city walls of Heldvar turned into a hell on earth, with sticky blood covering the entire wall, and mutilated corpses everywhere.
"Don't be afraid, these are just appetizers. We are the heroes of Kushan. Our wives, children, and children are proud of us."
Hariwan stood in a pool of blood, looked at the soldiers under his command, and directly delivered his speech.
"Defend Heldvar to the death."
"Swear to defend Kushan to the death."
"Swear to defend your homeland to the death."
After hearing Hariwan's words, the soldiers around him also yelled, forcibly boosting their morale again.
However, their flesh and blood bodies were still somewhat useless in the face of the Chinese stone bomb attacks. They could only hide behind the walls and tremble.
"Military advisor, when will we send soldiers to attack the city?"
Xu Huang came to Jia Xu. Now that the city wall had been beaten to pieces, he thought it was time to attack the city.
"Don't worry, let the stone bullets hit you for a while. You can use the stone bullets to take away one more soldier, and there will be less resistance when we attack the city."
Jia Xu shook his head. Now the army has enough stone bullets, which can be reused. He is not afraid of any consumption.
"promise."
Since Jia Xu said so, Xu Huang had nothing to say and went straight down to tell the soldiers to continue waiting for orders.
"Replace with shotguns and shoot at the city wall."
The trebuchet captain looked at the large and small stone bullets on the city wall and gave the order to switch to shotguns.
Thirty trebuchets were loaded with shotguns and began to attack the city wall.
Scattered bullets rose into the sky like dark clouds, drifting slowly and quickly towards the city of Heldvar.
"Where is the straw shield? Quickly draw up the shield. The enemy's shotguns are coming. Defend."
Politra's eyes were full of panic. The heavy bullets caused great damage to the city wall, but the damage to the soldiers was more psychological than physical. But the shotguns were different. These fist-sized shotguns hit people.
, that is a fatal injury.
After hearing Politra's order, the soldiers on the city wall also hurriedly began to defend themselves. The grass shields they had long considered as a burden were thrown all over the ground. Now they had to grab the shields and put them on their heads.
The scattered bullets fell, like rain hitting banana trees on the city wall, blooming countless blood flowers, and there were dead bodies lying on the ground everywhere.
"Keep shooting."
The captain of the trebuchet continued to order the soldiers to attack. As Jia Xu said, if you can use stone bullets to exchange the lives of the opponent's soldiers, there is no need to use soldiers to fight the opponent desperately.
Continuous rounds of shotguns soared into the sky, hitting the enemy's city wall like a violent storm, causing constant casualties.
"General, the enemy keeps doing this, and the soldiers will no longer be able to withstand it."
Politra's eyes were full of horror. If the Chinese kept doing this, they would not need to attack the city. The morale of the soldiers would collapse in the face of so many casualties.
"Hey, tell the soldiers to go down to the city wall and wait for the enemy to attack in the upper city to fight."
Hariwan was also helpless. The Chinese people were rich and could use these shotguns to inflict casualties on their soldiers. He had no choice. Since he could not withstand the enemy's attack, he could only avoid the edge for the time being and go down to the city wall first.
.
"yes."
After hearing Hariwan's order, the soldiers on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief, and began to retreat to the bottom of the city wall under the command of their respective centurions and commanders.
"Captain, the enemy has descended on the city wall."
Every move on the city wall was under the eyes of the Chinese people. As soon as they stepped off the city wall, someone came to report the military situation to the captain.
"Instruct all trebuchets to suspend the attack and wait for instructions from the military advisor."
The captain also saw the enemy's movements on the city wall and immediately ordered the trebuchets to temporarily stop the attack and rest while waiting for Jia Xu's order.
"Military advisor, what's the next fight?"
Xu Huang came to Jia Xu. Now that the enemy had withdrawn the city wall and the threat of trebuchets had been reduced to a minimum, it was time to dispatch the army.
"How are the preparations for the trailer going?"
Jia Xu glanced at the city wall in front of him. It was not impossible to attack now, but it also depended on his own preparations. If the carriages were not ready, sending people to the city wall would mean death.
"There are ten of them assembled now. If we want to launch an attack, it's not impossible."
Now, in his opinion, the preparations for the carriages are almost complete, and the ten carriages can fully support a wave of attacks.
"Don't add fuel to your tactics. Prepare twenty vehicles before starting the attack. If possible, take over the opponent's city at once and resolve this battle."
Jia Xu shook his head and looked at the city in front of him. He didn't want to use any tactics to add fuel to the fire and use the lives of his soldiers to grind away bit by bit. What he wanted was an absolute offensive. If he didn't move, he would move like thunder.
