Chapter 715: Combined Trebuchet
Seat Mountain.
Pastoral army in the battalion.
In the tent, Mu Jing was wearing a robe and was playing chess with Chen Gong.
On the chessboard, black and white are vertical and horizontal.
"My lord, why do you want to let the main force of Zhang Liao's sailors fight an uncertain battle?" Chen Gong actually didn't agree with this battle, in his opinion, it was the most correct to fight steadily and steadily and enter Xiangyang step by step.
"Do you think Zhang Liao will lose?"
Mu Jing's attention is focused on the chessboard, he doesn't like Go very much, but he is now practicing his chess skills, in order to be able to play against his father-in-law one day, it doesn't feel good to be abused every day.
"He didn't win!"
Chen Gong said truthfully.
"What if he loses?" Mu Jing asked with a son.
"This ......"
Chen Gong pinched the chess pieces in his hand, paused, pondered, and said half-loudly: "Even if he loses, as long as he can bring the main force back, it doesn't hurt, Xiangyang does need to open up the waterway, but it doesn't necessarily rely on the navy, as long as we have warships across the river, we can attack Xiangyang City!" ”
Of the three armies of the Mu family, the main force is still the army.
"In that case, let them go and fight, so what's the matter!"
Mu Jing said with a smile: "Jingping's second army, is our army's sailor, I care about the strength of this sailor, for this reason I secretly recruit shipbuilders at a high price in Jingzhou Jiangdong, but shipbuilding is not an overnight thing, we don't have this condition at present, but the sailor still has to develop, we have to let them collide with a powerful sailor, in order to experience a strong sailor soldiers, this battle, I don't care about success or failure!" ”
"But Jiangxia Sailor is an elite after all!"
Chen Gong also understood what Mu Jing was thinking, but he was still worried: "In case Liao can't even retreat with the main force and buries Jingping's second army in Tanxi Lake, I'm afraid the situation of my herdsman army will become difficult!" ”
"I believe Zhang Wenyuan!"
Mu Jingdao: "Zhang Wenyuan looks like a risky move, but he has his own calmness, if he doesn't have enough self-protection ability, he doesn't dare to fight the entire Jingping Second Army!" ”
"If the Jingping Second Army is on land, I agree with their combat effectiveness, but on the water, I can't think of what else Zhang Wenyuan can do?" Chen Gong was puzzled.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools!"
Mu Jing said: "We may not be able to build ships, but if we talk about making weapons, they will definitely not be able to, my Mingyi workshop in the Minghou Mansion, not to mention the top of the world, the weapons that can be made are definitely better than Jingzhou!" ”
After he casually gave a word, the corners of his mouth raised slightly: "Zhang Liao's Second Army has only changed a batch of equipment this year, all of which are the latest products of the Mingyi Workshop, and there is also an experimental product, which is made by the people of the Mingyi Workshop and the Science and Technology Institute. ”
…………………………………………………………
On Tanxi Lake.
The sunset has passed, and the distant sky has gradually become dark, and the gloomy night is shrouded little by little, as if it wants to swallow the whole world in the abyss.
"What a pack of mad dogs!"
Standing on the boat, Chen Zuo's eyes had a fierce color.
He meant it was just a temptation.
But he underestimated the ferocity of the herdsmen, although the herdsmen's warships were inferior to them, and the soldiers' ability to control the warships was far inferior to them, but they were fierce, and they fought very fiercely, as long as they bitten, even if they were injured, they would not let go.
collided together, and the fight was very tragic.
It was completely unexpected.
But he is not a timid general, he can see the water combat effectiveness of the herdsman sailor's water division, and he has a lot of energy, whether it is with tactical deployment or the cooperation of warship formations, it is too blunt.
At a glance, he could find ten or eight attack points.
Therefore, Chen put his heart sideways, directly released the main force, and fought all the battles, so he simply ate them directly, even if it cost a little more, he had to leave all these herdsmen and soldiers on this Tanxi Lake.
"Pass my military order, and all departments will attack!"
Chen drew his bow and arrow, and an arrow with flames in his hand rose into the sky.
This is the military order.
"Kill!"
"Jiangxia sons, it's time for us to attack!"
"Light the torch and go to deck!"
"Open the battlement, archers ready!"
One by one, the warships rushed out of the water village, and the soldiers were even more enthusiastic, as if the wolf saw the prey and wanted to eat the prey in front of them in one bite.
"All warships, get ready to get on the trebuchet!"
All the officers on the warships on the side of Jingping's Second Army heard the military order.
"Get on the trebuchet!"
"Stone bomb ready!"
Fighting ships, even ships, have already begun to be prepared.
Because it is relatively small, it cannot bear the trebuchet, but the Ming Yi workshop has improved a number of small trebuchets, which can only drop about ten catties of stone projectiles, and there is no threat to the siege.
But the security is on the ship, but it is very suitable, whether it is the range or the lethality, it is enough to make these ships enhance the combat effectiveness of a generation.
"Fat!"
Zhang Liao suddenly ordered.
He dared to fight because all the warships under his command were equipped with trebuchets, and this time his fleet was at least fifty percent more combative, and it was definitely able to fight.
In addition, the stone bullets they fired were also specially modified.
Boom Boom Boom Boom !!!!
In the night sky, the iron thorns were wrapped in clumps of stone bullets, and with fiery red tung oil, they launched meteors like flames and fell on the warships of the Jiangxia sailors.
"Trebuchet?"
Chen Zuo's face was ugly, he looked at this scene with a gloomy face: "They just have this little warship, even if all the fighting ships are equipped with trebuchets, it is impossible to have so many trebuchets?" ”
It is already clear at a glance how many warships the herdsmen have.
"Unless they have trebuchets on their ships, too!"
Chen gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
He really didn't expect this, if there were trebuchets on every warship of the herdsmen, more than a hundred warships, the stone projectiles issued must be too dense and impossible to avoid, which would be too much of a threat to them.
Unlike a crossbow, a trebuchet is a stone projectile that falls into the sky and has a strong penetrating force, and as long as it hits, it will basically smash a hole.
You can repair the inconsequential parts of the ship, but once you break through the hull, you will get water.
"Lord Captain, we have lost no less than thirty search ships, and three other fighting ships have also entered the water, and they have begun to be unable to be saved, and now we are evacuating the soldiers!"
After a few rounds of defense, a lieutenant came up and reported in a deep voice.
"Damn it!"
Chen's eyes turned red instantly, he would never have thought that beating a herdsman would cause him so much damage, this was already very uneconomical.
"Pass on my military order, the Chibi and Xia slogans, and attack with all your might!"
Chen turned his heart sideways and directly dispatched the giant building ship.
Now only the building ship can allow them to avoid casualties, no matter how many warships under their command are, they can't withstand the power of this stone bullet, but the building ship is not afraid, their trebuchet is obviously not powerful enough, and the building ship is rampage, fearless.
"Yes!"
Several generals commanded.
Jiangxia sailors have two building ships, one is made from the dock in Chibi, and the other is made from the dock in Xiakou, both of which are three-story ships, with hard hulls, impacting those fighting ships, without pressure, and preparing ballistas, with trebuchets in the front and rear, which is a war machine that can move on the water.
"General Zhonglang, the front army has been broken, seven ships have been killed, and one fighting ship has been broken!"
A military marquis came to report: "The enemy army has dispatched a building ship, and we are not afraid of our trebuchet attack, we have no time to change the formation, and now the warships of the front army are in chaos!" ”
"Lou ship!"
Zhang Liao's eyes did not reveal sadness and anger, but a kind of excitement.
What is he fighting in this battle?
It's the ship.
He just wants to know if he can compete with Lou Chuan, if not, then their Jingping Second Army will have to change its strategic deployment, if it can, then the frontal Jingping Second Army is on the water, and it has the strength to fight.
"Nie Yun!"
"In!"
A young military general stepped forward.
"The rest is up to you, if you break through, you will be the first to take credit!" Zhang Liao patted him on the shoulder and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Liao is in his early thirties, but he is more sophisticated, and Nie Yun, who looks to be about thirty years old, is Zhang Liao's younger brother.
Zhang Liao was originally a descendant of Nie Yi, and in order to take refuge, one vein changed its form, and the other vein retained its nature, which was just in case, so that a bloodline could be left.
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Nie Yun bowed his hand to salute, and then went to arrange.
The four fighting ships in the back, lined together, were consolidated with iron chains, and the sampans were connected and combined.
None of these ships had trebuchets on them, but they had something on board, long, moving logs.
"Assemble in a quarter of an hour!"
Nie Yun walked up and ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
It's all moving.
Within a quarter of an hour, the giant trees on the four fighting ships could be connected together, and gradually formed a giant object, which was a trebuchet, a giant trebuchet, a trebuchet specially used to attack the city wall on land.
Even if it is a building ship, it may not be able to carry it.
But with four fighting ships, it can be carried smoothly.
"Fat!"
Nie Yun ordered ahead.
Rumble!
A hundred-pound stone projectile was launched, and the target was ...... Lou boat, the building boat of Jiangxia Sailors.
