699 Battle of the Capital
"Up!"
Issuing orders to all his men who were ready, Zheng Fang sent his own team specially prepared for siege equipment.
These squads, each of whom is composed of holy knives, have become the primary targets of siege equipment as soon as they appear, but with the skills of holy knives, this little firepower alone is not enough to pose a deadly threat.
Soon, the soldiers, who had just rushed to the city wall, found that they had been approached by a group of sharp soldiers.
This is the case with siege engines, if the first wave of soldiers is not able to stand on the walls, then they will be completely passive.
These vanguards placed at the head of the rebels are naturally their best soldiers, but no matter how high-quality they are, they can't be compared with the Holy Knife at all.
Soon, these vanguard forces were annihilated by the Holy Sword.
"Oilers, get on!"
Seeing that the vanguard of the enemy army had been completely suppressed by the holy sword, Zheng Fang ordered again, and the soldiers who had been prepared on the side for a long time rushed up with the oil bombs in their hands and threw them into the siege equipment.
Although this oil bomb can burn the soldiers in the siege equipment covered with iron armor, the actual lethality may not be as high as that of a rocket, but this method is the Achilles heel of this equipment.
The high temperature of the oil bomb will burn the entire siege equipment to a high temperature, and at that time, even the enemy troops who have not been burned by the oil bomb will be blocked from the door.
At that time, all the enemy troops can only be blocked outside the siege equipment, they will have no cover, and the defenders of the capital on the city wall can shoot at will, which is simply a disaster for the siege of the city.
Sure enough, after all the soldiers in the siege equipment were burned and ran wildly, the rebels who were blocked by the fire were blocked under the city wall.
"Machine gun fire!"
Finding the right time, Zheng Fang's machine gun team stood at the head of the city, and countless high-velocity machine guns opened fire at the same time, killing the soldiers who had only a way to retreat and no way to enter.
Zheng Fang's visual inspection alone, this wave killed and injured thousands of soldiers on the other side.
Under the baptism of machine gun fire, the rebels finally waited until the fire in the siege equipment was extinguished, and just wanted to rush forward, only to find that the temperature in the engineering equipment covered with iron frame at this moment was terrifying.
It was impossible to get in, and even if he rushed up, Zheng Fang would be able to burn all the soldiers in front of him as long as he threw oil bombs again.
"Report! The front line siege has been blocked, and our side has suffered heavy losses!"
At this time, in the rebel camp, a general with a big waist and a round brain was chatting with his lieutenant and his subordinates.
The strength of the defenders of the capital, these people all know that their 100,000 army can completely capture the entire capital, and there is no need to worry about it at all.
At this moment, this group of people is even imagining here, how they will enjoy Yunyun after the capital is defeated......
"What? They even dare to resist ???"
The imagination of the group was interrupted by the herald, and the commander was furious, shouting and scolding, and kicking the herald fiercely.
"Keep beating Lao Tzu! until their city is broken!!
The irascible commander gave the herald an order after venting his mouth.
The beaten and bruised herald ran out.
This person's name is Bao Hu, born in a powerful family since he was a child, their Bao family ancestors have meritorious service to the Great Yuan Dynasty, and they are considered to be generations of meritorious magnates, and they have always held important positions in the local army.
The Great Yuan pilgrims had heard rumors before that the Bao family had formed a party for personal gain and was doing mischief in the army.
It's just that under the Bao family, there has never been a tiger and wolf army, and there are too many external problems for saints, and there is no need to take a Bao family to heart, so the matter was put on hold.
Who would have thought that this time bomb would explode today.
Carrying the saint on his back, the Bao family replaced their own people in key positions in the army under their rule, and tried to recruit some soldiers who were dissatisfied with the Great Yuan Dynasty.
The territory of the Great Yuan Dynasty is vast and the population is large, among which for various reasons, there are actually many people who are dissatisfied with the court and the saints, and with these soldiers as the basis, the Bao family has the courage to rebel with troops today.
"General Bao, don't be impatient, since we can't attack for a long time, let's retreat first, see the situation clearly and then make a decision. ”
When Bao Hu finished his anger and everyone was silent, an old man next to him spoke.
"Hmph, what's the matter?
People from foreign companies dare to point fingers at me?"
Hearing that the old man dared to speak at this time, Bao Hu's tone immediately became unpolite.
"Today's army, my Bao family is the main position, the strength of the 100,000 army, even if it is your foreign company, can you take it out???"
After Bao Hu finished speaking, he raised his head very proudly, obviously, in front of the contact person sent by the foreign company, Bao Hu's posture was very high.
"That's natural, that's natural, General Bao is brave, mighty, and the courage of the 100,000 army is beyond our reach, but the original plan of the capital does not need to be attacked, as long as it is slightly contained, and now there are so many casualties to pay for the siege of the city, there is no need to be not, I am worrying about General Bao!"
The people of the foreign company said while their faces were full of flattering smiles, and this Bao Hu has been in contact for a long time, and the liaison officer of the foreign company has already figured out his temper, he doesn't love anything, he likes others to say nice things, and when he is happy, he will do all kinds of ridiculous things.
"Hahahaha, it's pretty much the same, pass the order down, let the wastes in front of you withdraw first. ”
Obviously, Bao Hu was very useful to the sycophants of the liaison, and immediately issued an order to let the besieging army slow down for the time being.
"Ouch, General Bao is wise and decisive, and his strategy is extraordinary, admire and admire ......"
Seeing that Bao Hu, a fool, followed his advice, the contact person of the foreign company hurriedly opened his mouth to praise him, and the people next to him were disgusted from the bottom of their hearts.
It is simply a miscellaneous fish army, with low combat effectiveness, not to mention the high-level of foreign companies, even this small liaison officer, who can't look down on such a Bao family army, if it is not for the organization's plan, the Bao family army needs to be in the outer city of the city.
This liaison didn't even bother to open his mouth to remind Bao Hu!
With Bao Hu's stupid IQ, the liaison officer didn't even need to look at it to know that if he really let him command this operation, he would be able to use up all the troops in his hand in a few days, and at that time, there would be problems with the plans of foreign companies.
When Zheng Fang on the city wall saw that the enemy had retreated, he immediately ordered the machine gun team to cover the fire and shoot as many enemy soldiers as he could.
After leaving behind the corpses in one place, the rebels' first siege was repulsed.
