Chapter 238 Fortress Offensive

How could You Bin not know what Zhang Yishui said? The reason why he said this was just out of anger, but after venting his anger, he calmed down.

"Here comes someone."

"exist."

"Prepare ten days of military ration supplies, and also prepare some defensive equipment to send to Zhang Xiaoshuai."

"promise."

"In this way, Zhang Yishui will thank Deputy Commander You."

After listening to You Bin's words, Zhang Yishui clasped his fists, turned around and walked out the door.

There is no need to talk too much. Since he has got what he wants, there is no need for him to waste his time here.

"Zhang Yishui, I hope you will do what you say and don't let me down again."

You Bin looked at Zhang Yishui's back, gritted his teeth and spoke to him.

"Deputy Commander, please rest assured, we have the same idea, stick to Xiaogushan and get rid of the army."

Both at the top and on the mountainside of Xiaogushan, soldiers and soldiers were preparing for battle, but the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain were encamped on the spot. The situation of ice and fire made people confused.

Dian Wei led three thousand selected men under his command to walk through the mountains and forests. It was difficult to walk on flat roads with these large boxes, let alone steep mountain roads. It was already dark after walking.

It was difficult to leave at dawn, let alone the pitch black night, so Dian Wei had no choice but to order a rest.

After a night of silence, Dian Wei continued on his way after dawn the next day, and finally arrived at the place designated by Yuan Shu at noon.

Although we reached the top of the mountain, the place was full of shrubs and woods, and there was no room for a huge trebuchet.

"Open mountains and cut down trees."

Helpless, Dian Wei could only lead his troops to cut down trees, dig mountains, and level the land to create a place for the deployment of trebuchets.

"Send five thousand soldiers and horses up the mountain, carrying food, grass and stone bullets to support Dian Wei."

"promise."

Five thousand soldiers and horses went up the mountain with some grain, grass and a large number of stone bullets to support Dianwei's construction.

It took a full day to build the site for fifteen trebuchets, and then it was the work of the craftsmen.

Hundreds of craftsmen acted quickly and assembled the trebuchets one by one like magic.

"My lord, General Dian Wei has deployed the trebuchets and is ready to attack at any time."

After waiting for such a long time, Dian Wei finally got it done.

"Pass my military order and beat the drums to send out troops."

"Dong dong dong"

The rumbling drums resounded throughout the sky, and Yuan Shu's entire army came out. The Jianzhong Army, the Tiger Wei Army, the Eagle Yang Army, and the Guards were lined up in a row, with their troops pointing at Xiaogu Mountain in the distance.

When Yuan Shu's army moved, the Yellow Turbans on Xiaogushan also panicked and prepared to fight. They all held spears and spears, ready to fight with their lives against the oncoming officers and soldiers.

"Command Dian Wei to attack with trebuchets."

A huge yellow battle flag was erected on the gate of the camp. They were too far apart, so they could only use this method to command the trebuchets on the mountain.

"Prepare the bomb again, calibrate single shot, target Juyi Hall, launch."

Seeing the big yellow flag raised on the camp, the captain in charge of commanding the trebuchet waved a small yellow flag and directed the trebuchet to prepare to correct its position and adjust its counterweight.

Fifteen heavy rounds in a row, with a terrifying sound of wind, flew out from the top of the mountain and flew towards Xiaogushan.

"what is that?"

You Bin stood in front of the Juyi Hall, looking at the flying stone bullets, his eyes full of doubts.

"Peng."

"Peng."

"Peng."

The stone bullets came very quickly, some flew over Xiaogu Mountain and hit other mountains, and some hit the edge of the mountain top. Only one bullet fell from the sky and made a big hole in the top of Juyi Hall.

Even so, Xiaogushan was shaken by the stone bullets, and You Bin was so frightened that he lay on the ground and did not dare to move.

After all fifteen rounds of heavy bullets hit the ground, You Bin stood up and looked at the direction in which the stone bullets were flying, his eyes full of fear.

"Is that a catapult?"

Now You Bin finally knew what the thing flying over was, it was a trebuchet.

"Commander, what should we do now?"

A primary school student came to You Bin and looked in horror at the pierced Juyi Hall and the stone bullets that fell inside.

"What should I do? How do I know?"

You Bin was also stupid. The enemy shot at him from a high position, but he could only watch without any room for resistance.

"No. 5, reduce the weight by forty pounds."

"No. 7, add ten kilograms of counterweight."

"No. 12, turn seven degrees to the right."

After a series of adjustments, the craftsmen began to operate the trebuchet busily, and in the end they all expressed that the adjustments were completed.

"Second calibration bomb, target Juyi Hall, launch."

"Whoosh,"

"Whoosh."

"Whoosh."

Fifteen rounds of heavy bullets pierced the sky again, and then hit Xiaogushan heavily.

After some debugging by the craftsmen, the effect this time was not very good. More than nine stone bullets directly smashed the Juyi Hall into pieces. The remaining six stone bullets did not miss too far and all landed ten meters near the Juyi Hall.

One of them hit three meters in front of You Bin.

"Commander, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time. The target here is too big. It's better to find a place to hide."

The two elementary school students lifted up the frightened You Bin and hid aside. In their opinion, the Juyi Hall was already a sign of absolute danger, and the only way to survive was to stay away from here.

"Fire oil bombs, let the trebuchet fire oil bombs instead."

Yuan Shu could see clearly from below that two waves of live ammunition had already smashed the top of the mountain into pieces, and then it was time for the fire bombs to wreak havoc.

The big flag on the camp gate changed color again, from yellow to dazzling red.

"No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, turn right twice."

"Okay, No. 2, turn right seven degrees."

"No. 6, No. 7, No. 8, increase the weight by ten kilograms."

After some instructions, the captain's flag also turned into a red flag.

"Fire bomb, launch."

A round of heavy pyrotechnic bombs was like a bolide falling from the sky, directly hitting their respective targets.

The buildings on the top of the mountain were named one by one, and each one was engulfed in flames. The worst of them was their food depot, which was directly hit by a fire under the attack of several kerosene bombs.

"Fight the fire, put out the fire quickly."

Seeing the fire in the granary, the Yellow Turban Army immediately panicked. One by one, they took buckets and began to fetch water from the only well and spring to put out the fire.

"Scattershot, where is the target."

Dian Wei is a good hunter in the mountains and forests. Not only does he have good skills, but he also has a pair of eagle-like eyes. He can see all the movements of the Yellow Turban Army.

The captain followed the direction pointed by Dian Wei, nodded, and then changed the flag to blue.

"Gain thirty pounds, shotgun, launch,"

Hundreds of fist-sized stone bullets fell from the sky like a heavy rain, directly hitting the yellow scarf crowd fighting the fire.

"ah,"

"Um."

"Help."

Each Yellow Turban Army was killed on the spot by Yuan Shu's shotguns. The front of the granary instantly became a defensive area. The Yellow Turban Army in charge of putting out the fire fled when they saw this and disappeared without a trace.
