1057. Chapter 1057

Shibao Village is built on the east side of the rugged passage of Helan Mountain, under the foot of the outermost hill, there is no city defense at all, that is, it is a permanent type of village, the defense facilities are very imperfect, mainly used to guard the passage, not for combat, he also knows the dilemma he is facing.

At this time, there is no need to mobilize, and the dust and smoke in the distance represent that with a qiē, experienced veterans can judge that there is no less than tens of thousands of troops, and everyone's mood is heavy, and they don't know if they can escape the catastrophe.

Sure enough, the Song army entered the battle as soon as it arrived, and did not waste half of its time, and attacked the stockade for five consecutive days, which was simply an autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

Feng Yuan's Tianwu army of 20,000 people, plus 5,000 township army native soldiers, swept the outskirts of Shibaozhai strongholds, just like the suburbs of leisure, those outposts are a circle of earthen walls, dozens of officials guarded, where can they block the momentum of tigers and wolves, even for people to stuff their teeth is not enough.

The Song army did not even expand the battle formation, but only divided part of the division to sweep, and the main force approached the village in one day, erected a stone thrower, bed crossbow and fought.

Dealing with the stockade, Feng Yuan did not take it lightly, and attacked with heavy punches as soon as he came up, not only setting up long-range projection weapons, but also forming eight offensive formations, taking turns to launch a wave-like onslaught on the stockade.

The number of people invested is not much, but the victory lies in the continuity of the attack, and the covering firepower is also very strong, which makes the defenders of the stockade anxious.

Kan Xian's head is big, Shibaozhai is dangerous, but where can it withstand the indiscriminate bombardment, not to mention the cannonball arrows with sharp winds, the hundreds of divine arm bows are fired in a volley, forming a curtain of arrows that cover the clouds and the sun, which also makes people frightened, and the lives that dare to appear are drowned by the rain of arrows in the sky.

There are also partial crossbows in the stockade, but the range can not be compared with the strengthened divine arm bow, two powerful bed crossbows, although they can pose a certain threat to the Song army, but that's all, not only the number is too small, but also the Song army found the battle position, the next day was destroyed by the iron cannonball, can only endure the bullying of the crossbow arrows.

The most unbearable thing was the chariot soldiers, who constantly changed positions in chariots and fired rockets at the stockade.

One can clearly see that the rockets with a faint smoke and dust, carried in rows between the crossbow arrows, shot down in the camp, causing bursts of fire, if the stockade had not been built with stones, I am afraid it would not have lasted a day.

Although it is a rocket, the penetrating power is no less than the bed crossbow, to put it bluntly, the machine crossbow of the chariot is also an improvement of the god arm bow, between the god arm bow and the bed crossbow, tearing the shield like cloth, not to mention the flesh and blood of people, almost can't think of any good way to block, the power is comparable to the pear blossom arrow launched by the bed crossbow.

The most important thing is that they can quickly maneuver and strike, and there is no time to evade the defenders, causing great casualties.

The almost non-stop blows made the defenders have a trance illusion, the Song army's crossbow arrows seemed to be running out, and they did not rest for a moment, and the torturers were going crazy.

No one in the stockade dared to move around at will, and the people on the wall of the walled wall dodged arrows while counterattacking the attacking forces of the Song army. When the Song army temporarily withdrew, they all hid behind the wall without exception, and their faces were all frightened.

As some people continue to be blown up or killed by arrows, they have no hope for life, and they are mostly unwilling to die, which is too aggrieved.

"It's the fifth day, and it seems that I can't hold on anymore." Kan Xian looked through the lookout and watched the Song army's attacking troops alternate, preparing for the next attack, and his heart was sad.

He was originally a general of the horse army, leading thousands of horsemen to gallop across the field, how fast he was so proud! Even if it's blood-spattered, what's the regret! How did you think that the subordinates were completely lost and fell into the embarrassing situation of being trapped in the cottage, it was really embarrassing.

The fierce offensive, which lasted for many days, caused many people to have a nervous breakdown, some ran out hysterically and were shot by arrows, and some secretly surrendered to the Song army.

Yesterday, more than ten people jumped directly off the wall of the village and ran towards the position of the Song army, although most of them were shot by the defenders, but it also shows the severity of the situation, the betrayal of these people, let the other party grasp the situation in the village.

"Here they are again, ready."

"Don't be lazy, get ready."

Feng Yuan also pressed his teeth, a small cottage fought for five days, or set up a heavyweight luxury offensive, this is a whole army, or a huge palace boss on the fourth army, it is definitely unprecedented consumption, to put it bluntly, take money to smash people.

Simply calculate the accounts, not to mention the battle of crossing the river, and the previous luxury version of the battle, but when it comes to the consumption in the past few days, a crossbow arrow is sixty-five Wen, and the price will be less if it is made on a large scale, but it is definitely more than fifty Wen.

Not to mention the pear blossom arrow, this kind of arrow that integrates bed crossbow shovel-shaped crossbow arrows and medicine stones, the power is naturally needless to say, and the price also makes people tremble, it is two hundred and ninety-two Wen apiece, and the process of making zuò is very complicated.

Relatively speaking, the iron artillery shell is simpler than the pear flower arrow process, and some bulky artillery shells are relatively cheap, but the lethality is not large, and only the well-made artillery shells, using thin skin stainless steel and high-quality medicinal stones, are unacceptable.

Relatively speaking, only if you have the courage to fight a tough battle, you can use high-quality artillery shells, and Feng Yuan used Shibaozhai is just a low-priced iron bullet, even if it is cheap, it will cost money, and the calculation of the number will make people stunned.

The consumption of a full five days, the money sent out must not be calculated in 10,000, but 100,000, hundreds of thousands to the bottom, there is a unit in the back, it is through instead of text, no wonder the household department and the Taifu oppose the war, it is understandable!

Of course, some of the arrows can still be recovered in battle, repaired and put back into use, at least the most valuable arrows can be recovered, and then polished and equipped with arrow shafts for use, which is also after the victory in the battle.

The chariots were so arrogant that they drove their chariots to within 200 paces, and not only shot at the stockade with their crossbows, but also shot with their bows.

Under the command of the banner and the war drums, the nearly 1,000-foot army let out three magnificent roars and marched towards the wall step by step.

Of course, they are not stupid and dense attacks, but in teams, showing a straggler formation, each big shi carries a simple ladder, bed crossbow accurate shooting, the big arrow has long been nailed to the wall, some people can climb.

"Archers prepare."

"All units aim at the target, don't shoot indiscriminately."

"Steady, watch out for the opponent's crossbow."

When the attacking troops of the Song army approached, the defenders began to counterattack, and the arrows fell to the ground sparsely, which did not constitute a serious injury to the loose Song army, and they could only give fatal damage when the Song army climbed the wall.

Jean Kan Xian's eyes were cold, and he carefully observed the movements of the Song army, and decided that this was an ordinary attack, and there was nothing new about it.
