The first thousand four hundred and sixty-five chapters are closely guarded
Chapter 1465 Tight Defense
Although I don't know if the thing built by the Chinese side is the same as its own chariot, but judging from the height, it should have the same function as the chariot. According to the height, it can suppress its own soldiers on the city wall.
For a while, the Kushan troops on the city wall were also preparing for battle, and the trebuchets in the city were also preparing to attack the enemies outside the city at any time.
Within half an hour, the Chinese side's construction carts were completed one after another and were pushed to the front of the army.
"Your Majesty, the carriage is ready and ready to launch an attack."
Yan Liang came to Yuan Shu again and told him that the trebuchet was ready.
"Okay, beat the drums, the front army will attack."
When he heard that the carriages were ready, Yuan Shu drew out the steel sword from his waist and signaled the army to start attacking the city.
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
"Dong dong dong."
The war drums sounded again, and the 100,000-strong army jumped out of the formation and began to advance towards the city wall with 20 carriages.
"The enemy is attacking."
Seeing the Chinese army advancing towards the city wall, the commander immediately reported to Mifret.
"Okay, the army is ready to fight."
Mifulite nodded, it was only a matter of time before the Chinese attacked. It would be better to come again later than later, so let the storm come more violently.
The Chinese army moved forward slowly, and soon came within the attack range of the Kushan Army's trebuchets.
"Tell the trebuchets to prepare for the attack."
Seeing the Chinese soldiers entering the attack range, Mifret directly ordered the trebuchet to attack.
"The general has ordered, trebuchet attack."
After hearing Mifulet's order, the Kushan Army's trebuchets, which had already been prepared, launched an attack without hesitation.
Stone bullets soared into the sky and shot towards the direction of the building.
"The enemy has trebuchets, prepare an interception net, and the building trucks will move irregularly to prevent the enemy's trebuchets from attacking."
Seeing the oncoming stone bombs, Ju Yi, who was directing the attack from the front row, directly ordered the interception net to be raised, and at the same time ordered the trebuchets to perform irregular maneuvers, not giving the opponent's trebuchets a chance to attack in advance.
Interception nets appeared in front of the army, ready to block the enemy's stone bullets.
"The enemy has a trebuchet. The school gunnery crew should immediately calculate the location of the enemy's trebuchet based on the movement trajectory of the enemy's stone bullets. Prepare to reload. Once the calculation is completed, immediately launch an attack and destroy them for me."
Seeing the stone bullets coming from the sky, Yuan Wei, who had already given up, immediately became excited, and then ordered his soldiers to prepare to measure the location of the enemy's trebuchet and fight back.
"promise."
Upon hearing Yuan Wei's order, the gunnery crewmen next to each trebuchet clasped their fists in agreement, then began to measure the position of the enemy's trebuchet, and then provided the calculated data to the trebuchet they were responsible for.
Each trebuchet began to adjust based on the data given by the school gunner, and at the same time loaded heavy bombs, preparing to launch its own counterattack.
"General, all the trebuchets are ready, and the calculations are basically completed. We can launch a counterattack."
A soldier came to Yuan Wei and told him the results of the calculation.
"Then let's fight back. Even if we can't cause any damage to the enemy's city wall, we still have to clear the way for the siege troops."
Yuan Wei looked into the distance. Although they could not provide much support to the siege troops now, they could still help them clear obstacles.
"promise."
After receiving Yuan Wei's order, the prepared trebuchets knocked down their catapults one after another, and dozens of huge stone bullets pierced the sky and flew towards the city wall of Gambilas.
"It's the enemy's trebuchet. The interception net is raised again to resist the enemy's attack."
Seeing the enemy's trebuchet attacking again, Mifret couldn't help but frowned. He didn't understand what the other party was thinking. It was not the Chinese style to do something knowing that it was impossible to do.
"General, the flight path of these stone bullets does not seem to be a city wall."
A captain looked at the stone bullets in the sky. This time the enemy's stone bullets were obviously higher than the previous one. If calculated according to this, they should not land on the city wall.
"No, the enemy's target is the trebuchet in the city. Quick, quick, quick, tell the soldiers near the trebuchet to raise the interceptor net to protect the trebuchet."
After hearing the captain's words, Mifret immediately understood what the Chinese were thinking. Their target was not the city wall, but the trebuchet troops behind the city wall.
Mifret reacted a little late. His order had just been issued, and the trebuchet's stone bullets had already crossed the city wall and smashed into the trebuchet troops inside the city wall.
In an instant, the Kushan Army's trebuchets suffered huge losses. At least twenty trebuchets were smashed to pieces on the spot. Although seven or eight others were damaged, they also suffered varying degrees of damage. They were lost in a short period of time.
combat capability.
"asshole."
Seeing the miserable state of the trebuchets in the city, Mifret couldn't help but feel angry. In just such a short time, most of his trebuchets were damaged, which was really unlucky.
"General, the trebuchet unit has temporarily lost its combat capability and needs time to repair it."
Soon, definite news came from below the city wall. The situation was even worse than what Mifret had seen. Not only were most of the trebuchets damaged, but the entire trebuchet unit was temporarily paralyzed and unable to participate in the next battle.
"It's okay, tell the craftsmen to repair the trebuchet as quickly as possible."
Hearing the news, Mifulet frowned again. Without the threat of trebuchets, the enemy's carts would be able to attack the city wall unscrupulously. This was not a good sign for him.
The battle continued. The Kushan Army's trebuchets were beaten to the point of being unable to fight. The Chinese Army was finally able to attack the city wall with all its strength while pushing the carts.
"The enemy's carriage has reached a distance of 200 steps from the city wall."
The soldier in charge of the lookout immediately told Mifret the distance between the building and the truck.
"City defense crossbow attacks."
Mifret glanced at the Chinese chariot in front of him, and directly ordered the city defense crossbows that were ready to attack the Chinese.
For a moment, the defensive crossbows on the city wall drew their bow strings, and then fired the one-meter-long crossbow arrows.
"It's the enemy's city-defending crossbow. The entire army is on alert. At the same time, the archers are preparing. Give priority to shooting the opponent's city-defending crossbow."
Ju Yi also saw the existence of the city defense crossbow. You must know that in his previous battles, he used trebuchets to destroy all the defense equipment on the opponent's city wall, and then sent carts to attack the city to basically capture the opponent.
But now the enemy in front of him is well-defended, and the defensive equipment has not been damaged at all. This will cause great trouble for him to attack the city wall.
"promise."
Upon hearing Ju Yi's order, the archers on the building cart bent their bows and set arrows, preparing to attack the enemy further and launch a sniper attack.
In order to ensure the success of the attack this time, Ju Yi made the archers on the twenty carts all the elites he selected from the Chinese army. With their presence, they would definitely be able to suppress the archers on the opponent's city wall, but they could do so with a certain amount.
Cause some damage to the enemy.
The damage of the city defense crossbow was still very high. Three trucks were blown up on the spot, two more trucks were severely damaged, and the remaining trucks were also scarred.
"Prioritize shooting those defensive crossbows."
Finally entering their own attack range, the Chinese troops on the carriages fired their bows one after another and began to snipe the defensive crossbows on the city wall.
"Shield bearer, protect the city guard crossbow."
Mifret didn't need to think too much to understand what the Chinese were thinking now. The city-defending crossbows posed a great threat to the carriages, so these must be the first targets of the enemy archers, and he had already made arrangements.
Shields stood beside the crossbows guarding the city, but facing the elite shooters of the Chinese army, these shields alone could not protect the crossbow soldiers guarding the city.
