Why should you try it? Because the perforations on infantry vehicles are prepared for crossbows. They are relatively small and have great restrictions on the elevation angle. Straight-line shooting is okay, but curved shooting is more difficult.
A soldier who usually has better accuracy said:
"I'll try."
Take the shoulder-mounted siege gun and adjust the angle.
The biggest advantages of the shoulder-fired siege gun are its flexibility, lightness and small firing hole. This soldier adjusted the height of his body to find a suitable shooting angle.
Huo Gen, who was leaning on the siege crossbow, noticed the existence of the siege crossbow from the beginning. The arrows fired by the siege crossbow can be stuck on the city wall. Hitting infantry vehicles like them is like hitting mud. It was the same, so Huo Gen took aim at the siege crossbow one step earlier than Xun.
When the soldier on Huo Gen's side was about to take aim, the seismic cannon on Huo Gen's side had already been fired. However, due to the limitation of the shooting angle, it did not hit, but it overturned the soldiers surrounding the siege crossbow and also Moved the siege crossbow that was about to be adjusted.
Seeing that the soldiers were fine, the general shouted again:
"What are you still doing lying down?! Get up and attack!"
At this time, the infantry vehicle in which Hyun was located also fired a seismic cannon. This direct hit not only destroyed the siege crossbow and scattered debris around, but also injured the surrounding soldiers. The general looked at it with gritted teeth. If he could, He really wanted to throw himself on the motorcade and pull out King Yi and Master Zhuo to convulse and skin them.
The biggest threat to the infantry vehicles was removed, and Huo Gen ordered people to help Shi Zhen bomb his way forward.
The general could ignore other weapons, but the weapon that blew up the siege crossbow destroyed the general's confidence. He originally thought that with 50,000 people, he could take back Yu Wenxian and others, but he didn't expect that, The mere two thousand men of Kunyu Kingdom blocked the fifty thousand men he was confident of, and the general's face became increasingly gloomy.
Huo Gen and Shi Zhen bombarded the way forward, while Huan covered the two of them. The infantry vehicle where Huan was sitting fired its bows from three directions: left, right and rear. The Zhou army did not dare to move forward at all. Not only did they not dare to move forward, they kept Retreating, the general wanted the cavalry to rely on their speed and rush over to see if there was any weakness in the carriage. When he turned around, he saw that the cavalry were busy controlling their horses. Some cavalry had even been thrown off their horses or were holding their waists while standing. Standing in the same place or limping to a nearby place, it can be said that the cavalry has completely lost its combat effectiveness.
The general looked at the motorcade again. The people from Kun Yu Kingdom, as well as Yu Wenxian and others, were all huddled in the carriage, not even a corner of their clothes was exposed. They were like turtles huddled in their shells. The general now regretted not bringing two more people with him. Come with a siege crossbow. In this case, there will always be a chance to attack the convoy. It will not be like now. The crossbow hits the carriage like it hits the cotton bag. The bow and arrow attack is ineffective, and the carriage is tied up. I killed the hedgehog and didn't see a drop of blood flowing out.
The general felt that he was at the end of his rope:
How to fight this? If there is boiling water, I really want to pour it over.
Thinking of boiling water, my mind lit up and I immediately shouted to the soldiers:
"Fire attack! Fire attack!"
His lieutenant said quickly:
"General, no, that is the envoy of Kunyu Kingdom, and there are also King Yi and General Zhuo. If these two people are burned to death together, Kunyu Kingdom will definitely fight with Zhou! The weapons of Kunyu Kingdom are so powerful, if It’s really a desperate move, and we may not be our opponents in the Great Zhou Dynasty!”
The general pushed him away:
"Throw a rat-proof weapon!" He shouted to the soldiers again, "Fire attack! Fire attack!"
Since the general gave the order, the soldiers obeyed the order and replaced their bows and arrows with rocket arrows.
Lai Hou, who had been paying close attention to whether there was any chance of escape, smiled when he saw the rocket shooting back:
"They are preparing for a fire attack."
Yu Wenxian and the other four were shocked. They crowded around Lai Houhou and looked out of the small window. When they looked, the rockets that covered the sky and sun were already flying towards the convoy. I don't know where Lai Hou moved, and all the small windows were closed. It is blocked to prevent rockets from entering through the small window.
The four of them looked at each other and then turned to look at Ning Fang. However, Ning Fang had been leaning on the hood of the car with his eyes closed and meditating since the beginning of the battle. Until now, he is still closing his eyes and meditating. Looking at Lai Houhou with his hands behind his head, even if They couldn't see the situation outside, and they didn't panic at all. They crossed their legs and swayed their feet, as if they were listening to a play in a teahouse. The four of them looked at each other again, and sat back in the hood of the car with uneasiness.
Suddenly there was an explosion next to the carriage. Yu Wenxian and the four of them couldn't help but jump on their chairs. At the same time as the explosion, Lai Hou opened the small window and the strong smell of smoke came in.
Lai Hou shouted disapprovingly:
"Let's go!"
Waving the reins, the carriage rushed forward quickly.
After the carriage started running, the smoke was blown away. In front of the carriage, Yu Wenxian and the others saw that a large area of the Zhou army had been blown over. When they saw the carriage rushing towards them, they rolled and crawled to both sides to avoid it. From time to time, there was still ground movement. The cannon fell to stop the Zhou army rushing towards the convoy.
The general shouted:
"Chase! Their carriage is on fire and they can't run far!"
The cavalry who controlled the horses pursued together with the soldiers.
Because the road surface was uneven due to earthquake cannon blasts, when the carriage ran through these places, it bumped very hard and sometimes even jumped. At this time, the soldiers of Kunyu Kingdom were very happy and finally blasted their way home. I stumbled around, sometimes even bumping into the roof of the carport, but I still laughed happily. The harder I stumbled, the happier I laughed.
But Yu Wenxian and the four people in the first carriage were not in such a good mood. Smelling the strong smell of smoke and listening to the crackling sound of fire outside the carriage, they looked at each other, then looked at each other and still closed their eyes. Ning Feng's eyes were resting, and finally Doulu Shao couldn't help it anymore and asked Lai Hou:
"What should I do if there is a fire outside the car?"
Lai Houhou was also in a good mood and asked him with a smile:
"Are those people coming after you?"
The four of them identified the sounds around them, and Wang Xing said:
"Yes, I'm chasing you."
Lai Hou laughed loudly:
"Then show them what it means to lose hope!"
As they spoke, they moved somewhere else. The four of them heard a loud sound of water coming from outside, and the crackling sound of fire outside the car disappeared in an instant.
Not to mention how surprised the four of them were, the chasing Zhou army saw water pouring down from the top of the carriage extinguishing the roaring fire.
General Dazhou could not help but curse:
"Damn it! What the hell is this carriage!"
Of course, people chasing horses cannot catch up, but cavalry can catch up, and cavalry are faster than carriages. However, the firecrackers fired from time to time in the carriages make it difficult for them to pick up the speed. Not only can they not catch up, but they are also caught. The firecrackers drove farther and farther, and were finally driven out of the range of the crossbow.
The last infantry vehicle, which was the one where Xuan was located, opened the door at the back and whistled and booed at the Zhou soldiers. As soon as the Zhou army got closer, they were hit with a cannon. Things had reached this point. , must have been at odds with Dazhou, and the shoulder-mounted siege cannons were no longer hidden, and they were just blasting them openly.
