Chapter 73 Li Mu, the god of war
In order to achieve a quick victory, the besieging armies are the main battle soldiers.
With a total of 50,000 main forces and 30,000 people, a total of 80,000 horses, Li Mu has not commanded so many infantry for a long time. For decades and nearly a hundred years, Zhao's heavy troops were on the border of Qin, making the northern part of Zhao more and more empty.
"Attack! It doesn't break. ”
"Whoa!" The Commanders responded loudly, and then ran back to their respective camps.
Ban Bang ~ Ban Bang ~
As soon as the heavy trumpet sounded, five storming vehicles and eight ten-meter-high siege vehicles slowly started.
The siege engine was seven meters long and five meters wide, the highest roof could rise to twelve meters, and a dozen crossbow archers stood on the nine-meter-high top tower, and there was even a small bed crossbow.
The rampage was only three meters tall, but it was much wider and heavier, nearly half a meter thick just from striking iron.
As the large equipment slowly activated, a thousand two-horse chariots also followed with thousands of strong crossbowmen.
After the chariot group, there were numerous wooden ladders, at least sixty wooden ladders for the hooked city.
"The walls were suppressed with turrets, the chariots were covered again with crossbows, and the chariots destroyed the walls and gates. If we don't have these bed crossbow catapults, we won't be able to stop them! ”
Seite nodded secretly, Zhao Jun really lived up to his reputation!
The black-faced general smiled: "Commander, just let the black tiger attack and destroy their tower first." ”
"Don't worry, let's take a look first!"
The Black Tiger is a hole card, and Sit can't be released at once.
[Commander, Zhao Jun's equipment is not as good as the Mo family.] ]
The siege vehicle rushing to the city looks scary, but its strength is average.
"It's already very good that Zhao Guo can do this, but I don't know why they are so enthusiastic about helping the Huns!"
Lin Shu also didn't know the ambition of the Zhao State, and if it was just for self-preservation, it would be impossible for him to go north to help the Huns.
"Why is there a big carriage in this city!"
Mixed in with the rangers, Li Mu walked down the city wall like a small soldier.
These cavalry were not many and scattered, and the distance was not close, and Sit did not bother to pay attention to them.
"Let's go back!"
The sound of Zhao Jun's drums shook the sky, and the army was pressed like a mountain, and even Li Mu was enthusiastic.
But the East Hu Jiashi at the head of the city was not only not frightened, but eager to try.
"Bastard, aim over there, don't cross the line!"
The crossbow commander of the machine crossbow scolded angrily, and the bastard next to him actually changed his target!
"Humph! How is it yours! ”
"Okay, shut up!" Sit hurriedly stopped, these bastards don't know if the king can hear it!
"Hey! Commander, can you only use stone bullets! ”
The catapult squad leader asked in a low voice, there is obviously a powerful fire oil bomb!
"Humph! You don't brag your fingers and hit which, you will behave well for a while, if you hit crookedly, the salted fish will be doubled in the future. ”
Now is a good time for acting training, and Sit doesn't want to scare Zhao Jun away.
"Nope! Forget it~ Patriarch, we're joking! ”
I'm scared! I'm afraid of salted fish!
There are also war drums and trumpets under the city, but the Donghu people don't like to use them very much.
"Commander, the distance is only a thousand meters."
At this distance, machine crossbows and trebuchets can already be activated.
Sit shook his head: "Wait." ”
The thick storming vehicles were in front, and the siege vehicles behind them slowed down.
"Buyeo Sit! Sure enough, I was so breathless! ”
Li Mu frowned, it was close to six hundred meters, and the Donghu people's bed crossbow catapult didn't move!
"The chariots are charging in batches, and the siege vehicles are pressing!"
No longer tempted, Li Mu also officially ordered the attack.
As soon as the battle flag was waved, more than a hundred tanks began to accelerate.
"The chariot is shooting, Li Mu's method is not bad! It's a pity to compare crossbows with the Empire! ”
Lin Shu shook his head! Even Qin Guoqiang's crossbow is inferior to the rod-pressed steel crossbow made of horse-drawn carriages.
"All of them are on the crossbow, and they will be compared to them." As he spoke, Sit also took off the strong bow from his back.
Although the pressure rod is more labor-saving, it is still too light for him.
"Huh! Better than a crossbow! ”
Consuming the arrows of the Donghu people is also one of Li Mu's plans.
The lever is used to press the crossbow string, just like the post-lever air gun.
The stable arrow path reaches 200 meters, and if the projectile is not against the wind, it can even reach 300 meters.
The military city in the east of Modong, the rear is surrounded by mountains, and the east is facing water, and Li Mu is mainly attacking the west city wall.
The stone city is eight meters high, and the head of the city is also five meters wide, and the four columns of armor soldiers are full of 7,000 people.
A buzz was followed by a dense rain of arrows.
"Damn! Crouch down and dodge the arrows! The commander crouched down with a shout, he was not worried about the protection of three shield men.
Bumper ~ This is the sound of the shield vibrating, it's okay, and the commander also began to raise his head.
"This!"
Sigh ~ sigh ~ The commander was also dumbfounded when he saw it, and the red-hot war horses began their own performances.
Even many of the warriors with armor fell in wail.
"Turn the corner!"
The tank, which had lost nearly half of its ranks, continued to advance, but the next round of arrows flew again.
"Let's go! Former Army Assault! ”
Sigh secretly! Li Mu didn't want to wait any longer!
More than a hundred tanks failed to shoot, and they were almost finished!
Knock knock~
Ban Bang ~ Ban Bang ~
As soon as the order was given, the cows and horses under the rushing car screamed and accelerated as soon as their buttocks hurt.
Thundered~
Like the giant turtle's storming car, the siege vehicle behind it is not slow.
The charioteers are honest this time, and they need siege engines to block the fire for them.
"Humph! Free Fire! Let's see the results of your training. ”
Sit laughed, the war was simpler than he thought, and he had been frightened by the 300,000 army before.
"Hey! The general is optimistic. ”
The team leader was just about to pull the mechanism, but there was already a roar next to him.
Not only the machine tool crossbow is powerful, but the trebuchet is not willing to be lonely.
Bump~pop~ The pieces of wood flew, and the siege vehicle shook for a while but still withstood it, even if it withstood several large steel crossbows.
Boom~ Dozens of catties of hard stones fell down, and the turtle shell of the city car also broke a hole, but it did not hurt the personnel and cattle and horses inside.
"Humph! Aim for Lao Tzu! "Sit's face is red! At a distance of more than 400 meters, the crossbow hit rate was only 30 percent! Catapults only have a 10% hit rate!
"Honorable Order!"
The captains nodded shamefully, moving the target was really different from the training!
"Huh! No matter how good the equipment is, these Donghu people can't play it. ”
withstood it, and Li Mu was also much more relieved.
In the face of the rain of crossbow arrows at the head of the city, you can only rely on the arrow towers of the siege vehicles to temporarily suppress it, otherwise you won't want to break the city today and tomorrow!
"Not bad." Lin Shu was very satisfied with this battle, as long as he got closer, these siege engines would not be so lucky.
The crossbow was ready to finish in less than ten breaths, but the crossbow commander was in no hurry to shoot.
Similarly, the slinger began to seriously estimate the projectile angle, and the memories of his usual training began to surface.
"Okay, shoot him." The team leader shouted excitedly.
The terrifying crossbow flew out in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, it had already shot onto the shell of the city-rushing car.
Well~well~ The bloody mountain cow wailed, but unfortunately he was fixed and couldn't lie on the ground for the time being.
"Damn! Speed up! Li Mu shouted!
In the second round of strikes, the siege vehicle still continued to advance, but the speed was already a little slower!
"Haha good! Go on! ”
Sit smiled, and turned to look at the wagon at the gate of the city.
