Half an hour later, the siege vehicles of the Pitzers were finally assembled in front of the camp.
As a long horn sounded, the Pitz people began to attack Qingyuan Pass.
More than thirty wooden carts were lined up. Behind each wooden cart were four or five Pitz soldiers hiding. Among these soldiers, except for the person who was responsible for pushing the cart, everyone else had a hand in hand.
A wooden barrel filled with earth and rocks.
It was obvious that they wanted to use the cover of the wooden mantle cart to continue building mountains of earth below the pass.
Fan Xingwang pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist with a solemn expression, stood in front of the crenel with his head held high, and calmly looked at the group of wooden-curtained carts advancing down the pass.
In front of the crenel, half of the soldiers and half of the archers were holding bamboo javelins. Everyone looked serious and nervous, waiting for General Fan to issue orders at any time.
Behind the wooden curtain car at the bottom of the pass, the Pitz soldiers were all short, hunched their necks, and carefully hid their bodies behind the huge thick wooden boards. They knew very well that they could not expose themselves, otherwise what would be waiting for them would be
Ruthless arrows.
Ahudala stood beside Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao. At this time, he was excited and nervous, and his eyes never left the enemy below.
"Why haven't you fired the arrow yet?" Ahhudala couldn't help but ask.
After hearing this, Jimo Qiao immediately said: "You can't shoot the arrow yet, the distance is too far, and they are all hiding behind the wooden curtain car. It would be a waste of arrows to shoot at this time!"
Chai Yan nodded and said: "That's right, now is not the time to release arrows. We have to wait until the enemy gets closer, test it with the bamboo javelin in the first round, and then decide whether to release arrows."
Ahudala nodded, knowing in his heart that he was a little out of breath.
While talking, the thirty or so wooden-veiled carts at the bottom of the pass began to speed up.
Fan Xing's heart trembled when he saw this, and he immediately pulled out his sword and said loudly: "Prepare the javelin!"
"Ouch!" The soldiers holding bamboo javelins immediately responded loudly, and one after another stepped forward and stood in front of the crenel, ready to throw it at the enemy formation at any time.
At the same time, the crowd of wooden carriages also erupted into shouts of killing.
In just one moment, the sprint speed of the wooden chariot group was obviously faster. With the noisy rolling sound of wheels, the wooden chariot group reached the bottom of the pass.
"Throw the javelin!"
Suddenly, Fan Xingwang pointed his sword down and roared an order to throw.
"Throw the javelin!" "Throw the javelin..."
Immediately afterwards, the messengers in the back row began to convey orders to both sides of the trail. Their shouts were loud and powerful, and more than a dozen messengers continued to relay the voices, and the orders reached everyone's ears in an instant.
At this time, the soldiers who first heard the throwing order had already thrown the bamboo javelin with all their strength.
Just like last time, these soldiers had all drunk the sacred water of martial arts before the battle, so their explosive power had increased several times.
Then the bamboo javelin shot mercilessly into the group of wooden chariots like lightning bolts.
With a loud bang after the impact, many dents and cracks were poked on the front fenders of the wooden curtain cars. Some bamboo javelins even penetrated the wooden boards and were nailed to the fenders of the wooden curtain cars.
superior.
Because of the heavy weight of the wooden chariot itself, and the fact that there were Pitz soldiers behind the baffle to maintain the center of gravity, this round of bamboo javelins did not pose a great threat to the wooden chariot.
When Jimo Qiao saw that the bamboo javelin had no obvious effect, he suddenly became anxious: "Damn it, the defense of this wooden curtain car is actually so strong!"
Cheng Jiu frowned and looked at the scene below, and couldn't help but said: "It's strange, these wooden curtain cars seem to be thickened. Second brother, what do you think?"
Yu Tie took a closer look and immediately nodded "hmm" twice to express his agreement.
Chai Yan was curious and asked: "You mean, they thickened the wooden fender in front of the car?"
Cheng Jiu nodded and said: "Yes! It has definitely been thickened."
Cheng Jiu told everyone that he had seen the Pitz people's wooden curtain cars in the past. The wooden baffles in front were not as thick as the ones in front of them. Otherwise, the impact of the bamboo javelin would definitely be able to penetrate the wooden boards.
"These Piz people are so cunning!" Ahhudala clenched his fists and looked very anxious.
Chai Yan sneered and said: "This Hengsar is indeed very smart. The power of our bamboo javelin last time was too amazing. He must have noticed the clues, so he installed a baffle on the wooden curtain car."
As soon as Chai Yan finished speaking, General Fan's order sounded again, and a new round of bamboo javelins was launched from the pass.
Everyone hurriedly looked down and saw that the scene after the bamboo javelins fell into the enemy's formation had not changed much from before. Some fell into the air and stuck diagonally on the ground, and some flew out after hitting the baffle of the wooden curtain car. Only
A few bamboo javelins were nailed tightly to the baffle.
At this time, all wooden chariots had arrived directly below the pass, and the Pitz soldiers had begun to dump earth and rocks.
Jimo Qiao saw this and couldn't help but feel anxious: "Brother, we can't let them build up the soil so easily. You have to think of a way quickly!"
Chai Yan frowned and shook his head helplessly. For a while, he had no better way.
At this time, Ahhudala pointed to the distance and shouted: "Look, the Piz people's cavalry is coming."
When Chai Yan and others heard the sound, they looked up and saw that, as Ahudala said, there were more than thirty chevrons lined up in a row and driving quickly towards this direction.
Chai Yan understood instantly when he saw the enemy's formation: "It turns out they had this idea. This Hengsar is really difficult to deal with!"
Jimo Qiao didn't understand what he heard and immediately asked: "Brother, what are they planning?"
Ahhudala also asked: "Taoist Master, can you explain it more carefully?"
Chai Yan immediately pointed to the north and said very seriously: "Look, the number of wooden curtain cars of the Pitz people is the same as the number of calamus carts, and judging from the direction in which these calamus carts came, it happened to be a calamus cart.
It corresponds to a wooden curtain car. According to my idea, the following anvil car will be docked end-to-end with the wooden curtain car below."
After hearing this, everyone took a closer look and immediately nodded, agreeing with Chai Yan's statement.
Chai Yan continued: "If my guess is correct, these chrysanthemums should be responsible for transporting earth and stone, and the wooden curtain cars in front should not retreat anymore."
Ahudala immediately said: "I understand, Taoist Priest, the Piz people want to use these wooden curtain carts as a shield and cover first, and then use the calamus carts to continuously bring earth and rocks, and take advantage of the situation to quickly build mountains of earth, even if the wooden curtain carts
Even if it is destroyed by us, the broken wood can become part of the mountain."
"That's right!" Chai Yan nodded seriously.
During the period of speaking, Fan Xingwang's orders did not stop. The soldiers threw bamboo javelins round after round, and the archers also took the opportunity to shoot the exposed Pitz in the empty compartment.
Soldier.
After a few rounds, although the Pitz soldiers behind the wooden curtain car also suffered some casualties, compared with the last time, the number of casualties this time was very small.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty chrysanthemums pushed side by side to the rear of the wooden curtain car.
When Fan Xingwang saw this, he immediately ordered to throw bamboo javelins at the group of chariots that followed.
The next moment, bamboo javelins rained down on the pass, and they all flew towards the top of the group of vehicles.
What everyone didn't expect was that the top structure of these trampolines was also thickened, and the situation after the bamboo javelin fell and hit was similar to the wooden chariots just now.
In other words, even if the car is poked into a "hedgehog" by the bamboo javelin, it will not cause any devastating damage. It can still advance when it should advance, and it can still retreat when it should retreat!
When the front end of the churro and the rear end of the corresponding wooden curtain car came close to each other, a scene that surprised everyone on the pass happened.
At this time, the baffle in front of the churro was actually removed by the people in the car. As a result, the soldiers in the churro came face to face with the soldiers behind the wooden curtain car.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers in the carriage began to pass the sacks filled with earth and rocks, bag by bag, to the soldiers behind the baffle of the wooden curtain carriage.
As soon as the soldiers behind the wooden chariot took the sacks of earth and rocks, they would throw them down the pass without hesitation.
Soon, all the sacks of earth and rocks brought by the tram were thrown under the pass, and the height of the ground suddenly rose a bit higher...
