Chapter 264: Siege!
"Whoosh".
An arrow was shot from the barracks and flew towards the watchtower in the city at an indecipherable speed.
The arrow was five paces offset, and it ran out of power, falling before it could reach its position.
The figure in the watchtower also spotted the arrow, but he jumped happily when he saw the powerless arrow and the cheap distance.
"Marshal, please give me another chance!"
The commander was half-kneeling.
"You can't do this bow, even if you shoot, you can't do damage!"
The commander nodded gloomily, it was true that this bow could not shoot more than eight hundred meters away.
"If only the Commander's bow hadn't broke! Pity! ”
An adjutant general sighed, the brothers of the whole army knew that the commander's bow skills were the strongest, but unfortunately they were accidentally damaged during the siege some time ago!
Xuanyuan Hanmo remembered that he had a folding bow in his bag! It's just that the bowstring is a little worse!
Thinking of this, he hurried back to the camp to find his backpack and find the folding bow.
Quickly running back, he removed the bow from the commander's hand, and kneaded it with the dirt from the bowstring that had been folded to form a new bowstring.
But the test was hungry and pulled down, and I always felt that it was not enough!
"Marshal, there is a spare bowstring in stock."
"Bring it!"
Soon, the bowstring came.
Xuanyuan Hanmo pulled out the bright strips and twisted them together, and finally tested them, and found that they barely met the requirements, so he hurriedly put them on the folding bow.
"Try! Let's see if we can pull it away! ”
Xuanyuan Hanmo handed the folding bow to the commander.
The commander used all his strength at the beginning, and he could only pull away a little.
At this time, Xuanyuan stepped forward, patted him, and asked him to bring the bow, and Xuanyuan Hanmo personally demonstrated.
This kind of strong bow actually appeared as early as the time of Qin Shi Huang, but it is not as strong as Xuanyuan Hanmo, which uses steel as a bow.
Xuanyuan Hanmo sat on the ground, pulled open the two buckles on the folding bow, stuck the bow with both feet, and leaned back vigorously with his hands on the bowstring of the arrow, and the whole person moved on all fours.
"Buzz!"
Arrows flew out, and a muffled sound appeared.
The arrow shot through the pillars of the watchtower at an incredible speed, scaring the figure that had just been dancing and provoking the figure into crouching down and not daring to come out.
"This position is very simple, and it is a bit difficult to aim, but it is the same, you can try again!"
The commander nodded, he could see the power of the bow through the telescope, and the distance of a kilometer could still penetrate the pillar
The main thing is that this bowstring can already be used as a trebuchet! But the bow is still not deformed!
Definitely a good bow!
Comparing the position, the distance, and feeling the wind speed, the commander calmed down his excited heart.
Finally, the third arrow was fired.
This time the people at the watchtower were not so lucky.
The arrow went through the plank, into his body, and out of his chest.
The commander looked at the bow in his hand with trembling hands, and his excited expression could not be concealed at all.
"Take it! I've got you! Go back and adjust the bowstring yourself, and now you'll keep an eye on me!" Shoot me in the eyes of the watchtower! ”
"Yes!"
The commander was as excited as a soldier at this time, and more happy as a child getting a toy.
"Pick a hundred people, run fast, and be good at climbing the city wall, you must choose before dark, bring a hook rope and gather here after dark!"
"Yes!"
A general stepped forward to receive the order, and then went to pick people.
"How many archers can be mobilized? How many shield soldiers? ”
"We have 10,000 archers, all of them! There were 20,000 shields, and 5,000 were mobilized. ”
"The shield soldiers are all here, will they be able to march in the underwater turtle formation?"
"Yes! The battle formation given by the marshal has been practiced all the time! ”
"Good!"
Xuanyuan Hanmo stood there and gave orders to everyone, and the shield guards protected the archers to advance, and the archers shot rockets with sulfur into the city under the protection of the shield soldiers, so that the city was covered with this sulfur smoke.
After being suppressed by bows and arrows, the infantry rushed to the city gate with wooden stakes and smashed it open.
Finally, it's a confrontation! At this time, it can only be seen by the strength of the soldier himself.
By the time Xuanyuan Hanmo was assigning the task, the commander sitting on the ground had already shot four people who tried to climb the watchtower! But at the same time, his hands and feet were shivering with exhaustion.
Xuanyuan Hanmo patted his head, why is this person so brainless! Let you stare at the watchtower, you really come by yourself, can't you aim and let the soldiers help!
"Go find a few strong soldiers! You use your brain, how long can you carry it alone! Get up! You're in charge of aiming and letting someone else draw the bow! ”
The middle-aged man in command said to Xuanyuan Hanmo, the young man's face was red, since Xuanyuan Hanmo came, he has been making a fool of himself, and he has lost the appearance of a commander at all.
Xuanyuan Hanmo shook his head and sighed and went to sleep, asking people to call him again before dark.
"Commander, you...
"Laugh if you want! You, give me some force! Right! That's it! Ass elevated! ”
The commander angrily commanded the minions to draw their bows.
The generals present all laughed, everyone was born and died brothers, and the commander would not really be angry.
In order to save the strength of the soldier who drew the bow, the commander asked the soldier to find a few stones to pad the buttocks.
The miscellaneous army of the Western Regions in the city tried hard to climb the watchtower at the beginning, but later they climbed the tower less and less frequently.
After all, they have a limited number of people, and it is impossible to send them to death all the time.
At dusk, the sun was tired of the day, and now it was slowly heading home to the west.
"Marshal, the people are assembled!"
After hearing the voice, Xuanyuan Hanmo opened his eyes and sat up.
"Prepare for the siege! Let the shield men escort the archers forward! Don't beat the drums! They all know the tasks of the 100 people, right? ”
"Got it!"
As soon as Xuanyuan Hanmo's order came out, the shield soldiers who had been preparing for a long time began to march with the archers.
The motley army of the Western Regions in the city began to shoot with bows and arrows, but they were all blocked by the shield soldiers.
After the archer comes into range, the shield soldier's shield on his head becomes a shield wall.
Bows and arrows shot out of the cracks and flew into the city with rockets of brimstone.
Suddenly, the smoke of the brimstone rose from the city.
There were also some archers who suppressed the people on the city walls with bows and arrows.
"Beat the drums!"
The drums of war sounded, and the hundred men who had been hiding behind the shield wall ran to the bottom of the wall and stood against the wall.
At the same time, the infantry rushed in the direction of the gates as the drums sounded and began to pound the gates.
At the same time as the ramming of the gates began, the hundred men also began to move, using their bows and arrows to shoot hooks and ropes into the walls.
The battle didn't last long, and Xuanyuan Hanmo asked the hundred men to bring explosives bags to blow up the city.
At the same time, Xuanyuan Hanmo decided that after so many days of fighting, the casualties of this miscellaneous army must be very large, and it is impossible to completely defend the city.
And the facts have been guessed correctly, this ragtag army can't withstand the offensive and wants to abandon the city and escape.
If you escape, Xuanyuan Hanmo doesn't have to be mixed!
Those 100 people went to bomb the city, and it was the gate out of the city! Just to eliminate the possibility of them escaping!
Otherwise, why do you emphasize running fast?
