Chapter 1165: I can't figure it out
Yang Bai is almost going crazy!
I have seen those who have besieged the city, but I have never seen the general Zhengxi attacking the city like this......
What the hell is this thing called?
Isn't the normal siege of a fortress whistling in the air with arrows back and forth, and then on the ground the besieging side is like a tide, splashing flesh and blood on the strong city walls, and the screams of battle pierce the sky, and the blood stumps are spread all over the earth?
It would be like the one in front of me, except for the clanging sound of chiseling wood and the sound of dragging and hoisting wood, it was as calm as a construction site......
What the hell is this called!
Yang Bai was puzzled and wanted to cry without tears.
Has anyone ever seen the defenders being pressed and unable to move, and then the attackers moving down there?
If it is said that it will go out, it is estimated that no one will believe it.
However, this is the reality.
Yang Bai half-squatted under the battlement of the walled wall and looked at dozens of soldiers who were also half-lying and half-squatting, and he could clearly hear the soldiers of General Zhengxi advancing along the jingling wooden frame along the mountain wall, but there was no effective countermeasure ability......
Yang Bai quickly poked out his head at the battlement, glanced at it, and then quickly retracted back, back and forth for no more than a second, but there were two crossbow arrows whistling, one crossbow "buzzed", and flew into the battlement, and one shot at the stone at the battlement, and in the midst of the fire, a few pieces of gravel were pierced, and the bullet fell back!
If it's a moment too late, you'll be pierced through the skull and die on the spot!
"Where's the Rolling Stone! Knock the wood! And the fire cage! Fuck, it's almost under your nose! β
Yang Bai sat under the battlement, pulling his neck and yelling, his heart couldn't stop beating wildly, no matter who he was, he had the courage to test on the verge of death, and he did too much, which was either crazy or devastating......
Originally, on such a terrain, the archers of the defending army should have played a great role, but when facing the strong crossbowmen of General Zhengxi, they suffered a loss.
The specific geographical environment has created the geographical advantage of the military village, but now this advantage has become an invisible constraint for Yang Bai's defenders. With a width of more than ten meters, there are only a few battlements, and the archer has just exposed half of his body and is about to open his bow to shoot, when he is pre-aimed at the strong crossbowmen of Zhengxi from the bottom to the top, and he slams into the soul......
An unfolded surface of more than ten meters, and then pre-aimed by twenty or thirty or more strong crossbows, whoever shows his head is unlucky, even if there is a shield, it is not necessarily easy to use, in this case, even showing his head to see the situation, it is a test on the edge of death, in this way, can Yang Bai and the defenders of the military village not be aggrieved?
The general of Zhengxi did not directly send soldiers to attack the city, but along one side of the mountain wall, constantly building wooden frames, spreading step by step, although the speed of progress is not very fast, but the wooden frame spread to the wall, that is, it is a matter of time, once the wooden frame is really laid on the wall, then what will be the result, needless to say that everyone also understands.
Although there is a geographical advantage in the military wall, General Zhengxi is obviously a strong crossbow with a longer range, but it makes up for this gap in range, and the area that the archers on the wall can shoot at, the strong crossbowmen of General Zhengxi can also counterattack.
And in terms of power, the archer may be tired, or his hand is slippery, which may not ensure that the strength of the bow and arrow is exactly the same every time he shoots, but the crossbow bolts shot by the strong crossbowman are basically kept at the same strength.
The point is that the crossbow can maintain a preview for a long time, and you don't have to shoot the bow like an archer. Most of the archers who exposed their bodies on the walled wall were exposed to their upper bodies, and they did not wear heavy armor, for the three-edged crossbows equipped by the strong crossbowmen of the general Zhengxi, there was almost no slightest defensive ability, as long as they were shot, it was basically equivalent to killing with one blow, even if they were lucky and did not die on the spot, they were seriously injured and could not continue to fight.
Under the influence of the strong crossbowmen of the general of Zhengxi, under the cover of the mountain wall and thick wooden piles, they did not suffer much loss, and with the archers of Yang Bai's defenders were killed or seriously injured one by one, Yang Bai gradually lost his long-range strike ability here, which was almost equivalent to losing the ability to control the scene, and could only attack and delay the progress of the project of General Zhengxi by beating wood and falling rocks.
But rolling stones and timber have had little effect.
Because the wooden frame built by the soldiers of the western expedition is not a right-angled faΓ§ade, but with an inclined angle, and the rolling stones are smashed on it, which is basically unloaded to the side, for the soldiers of the western expedition at the front of the wooden frame, there is not much direct damage at all, but after the rolling stones and trees fall down for a distance, they bounce back on the mountain wall, which causes some casualties.
It's just that with the spread of the wooden frame, the erection of the long wooden fence, the lethality of the rolling stone and the rolling wood is also gradually decreasing, more often it is to listen to the sound, and then watch the rolling stone and the rolling wood collide back and forth between the wooden fence and the stone wall, and finally fall under the cliff by bouncing and jumping......
But a little lethality is better than nothing, you can't do nothing, watching General Zhengxi lay the wooden frame on the wall, right?
"Hui Sima ......" a soldier moved over in a half-squatting position, and said, "I have already sent someone to urge, but ...... It's not easy to cut wood, so please send more people to ......"
On the watershed military village, where did I originally think that someone would attack, some rolling stones and wood reserves are already very good, there is not much base at all, after a few waves, there will be no follow-up, can only be cut again.
ββ¦β¦ We need to send more people...... Fuck ...... Lao Tzu is going to send more people, look at the expedition to the west, and there are only a few people who hang wood...... You say...... Why are you hanging on wood, you need a dozen people! What the fuck are you eating! Yang Bai pointed to the bottom of the military village with his hand and shouted depressedly.
Wood and bamboo, all over the mountains, it is not difficult to take materials, although the stone walls on both sides of this section of the mountain road are towering, but the mountainside between the mountains in the distance is full of trees.
The soldiers of Zhengxi tied ropes and hung down the valley, so they kept cutting down trees, went to branches and leaves, and tied them with ropes and hung them up the mountain road, plus they didn't know that the soldiers of Zhengxi General had such magical power, or they used some methods that Yang Bai didn't know, anyway, they just saw more than a dozen groups of ropes hanging side by side on the cliff wall in the distance, and then they only needed one or two people to hang the whole tree up......
The defenders of the military village also swore helplessly: "...... This one...... That turtle son was lazy, so he killed this turtle grandson ......"
Yang Bai was angry and scolded: "Get out! Go and urge again! β
Fuck, what's this thing called!
This military village, how to let Lao Tzu defend it!
"Damn! Damn it! Yang Bai patted the battlement with his hand, but he didn't dare to poke his head out again, "What should I do, what should I do?" Do you say ......"
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yang Bai was puzzled, but Fei Qian knew very well that in fact, many things were not difficult, just like the fixed pulley has been used in China for one or two hundred years, but adding one to become a movable pulley, or more complicated to become a pulley, but it will take a long time later, even to the industrial age......
The drop of the military village in the watershed is less than ten meters in total, although this is indeed an insurmountable height for ordinary people in the Han Dynasty, but for people like Fei Qian, who are used to seeing high-rise buildings of tens of meters or even hundreds of meters in later generations, isn't this the height of two or three floors?
It's not cost-effective to attack the military village head-on, so just build a scaffold to pave the way!
Fei Qian also thought, if the steel quality passed the test that day, would it be possible to make a tower crane?
The most important thing is that the terrain is suitable, both sides of the military village are leaning against the stone wall, and there is no trench or anything in the middle, with the stable attachment of the stone wall, one side is vacated as a passage for rolling stones and wood, and in addition to the inclined wooden frame with the mud surface of the top in front, whether it is a rolling stone or a rocket fire cage, it has a strong resistance ability.
"Prince, in two days, you can build the wall......," Xu Huang said, standing aside, looking at the wooden frame spreading towards the military village.
"Yes, it will be about the same in two days......," Fei Qian nodded and said, "If the defenders are not willing to fight to the death with us after the wall, then what will they do now?" β
Li Ru coughed lightly, pulled his leather robe and said, "Yesterday's rain stopped, and the mountains were getting dry, be careful of the candle ......"
Fei Qian nodded, smiling without saying a word.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The night is falling, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce.
In the Han Dynasty, when there was no artificial lighting except for natural light, the secretion of melatonin was always at a very high level, so most people fell asleep quickly at night.
But with the exception of a few.
By the cold moonlight, more than a dozen figures climbed out of the military village, and slowly slid down the hanging rope......
It's not that Yang Bai doesn't want to open the walled gate, nor does he want to send more people, it's just that due to the constraints of geographical location, he can only put so many troops at one time.
Although there is a walled gate, but at the beginning of the construction did not expect to encounter such an offensive mode as Fei Qian, so normally speaking, in order to reduce the risk of being broken by the frontal car, the walled gate of the military village was deliberately narrow, just to accommodate two people walking side by side, and at the same time, in order to improve the protection of the walled gate, even at the expense of using a whole stone slab as a gate, but such a stone gate, it is easy to put down, if you want to re-twist up, it is not possible to do it in two or three minutes.
Therefore, now Yang Bai wants to send people out of the village, but there is no second way except to hang the rope down.
Since the rolling stones and wood could not destroy the wooden frame built by the soldiers of the general of Zhengxi, the only way to do it was to smear the raid, pour it with fire oil, and burn it!
There is no other way.
In the darkness of the night, the soldiers who hung down from the military village first lay on the ground and listened quietly with their ears pricked up......
It was quiet, and it seemed that even the insects had gone to rest, and there was no other sound except for the sound of his own heartbeat like a drum.
The wooden frame built by General Zhengxi stands quietly on the edge of the stone wall, like a hideous beast with a wide open mouth, which makes people shudder.
Fortunately, the general Zhengxi on the opposite side seemed to be defenseless, and the sparse and sparse were only a few torches, which could not take care of the entire wooden frame at all.
Qu Chang, who led the raid, gritted his teeth, glanced back at the military village, and vaguely saw that under the light of a few torches on the wall of the military village, Yang Bai kept waving his hand at the battlement......
"Turtle Son ......"
Qu Chang scolded secretly, then bent over and touched forward with his hands and feet. Several soldiers also hurriedly followed behind Qu Chang, shrunk in the shadows, and moved forward silently.
Where is the wooden frame?
Yes, on the left stone wall......
The floating clouds in the sky flowed, and I don't know when the moon got into a large thin cloud, which was extremely hazy, and the whole heaven and earth suddenly dimmed, adding a third of mystery.
Touch a section, pause, listen, and then see that there is no movement, then touch another section, and so on. Qu Chang only felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and it seemed to be echoing within the mountain wall......
It's coming, it's coming, it's almost there!
There was a muffled "thump".
Qu Chang, who was touching forward, suddenly bumped into something, and suddenly sat on the ground.
"Isn't it to the ground?"
Although there was a hazy moonlight, Qu Chang, who was shrunk in the shadow of the mountain wall, couldn't see what was in front of him for a while, so he couldn't help but reach out and touch it......
"Huh? Well! A sudden voice was like a thunderbolt in the quiet night, "Hey! Stinky boy! Touch that! β
Qu Chang was so frightened that he raised his knife and cut it, but there was time, and before the knife could be raised, it was kicked over, and then he was trampled on his neck and pressed to the ground.
Qu Chang was still about to resist, but he heard a scream left and right, and more than a dozen soldiers who crawled out secretly were all taken down, so he let out a long sigh, stopped moving, closed his eyes and waited for death.
"Junhou, you say that these fools are not stupid, like a blind man, we are standing here, still invisible, and still touching the ......," said a soldier of the general of Zhengxi.
"Well, it's all sick......" Gong Jun, who stepped on Qu Chang's neck, replied casually.
If it weren't for being stepped on by someone's neck, Qu Chang would have jumped up and said back, "You're sick......
"Okay, it's all tied...... It's all a group of blind old thieves who don't have long eyes, and they hit the net...... I took the bamboo tube from their waist first...... It should be the oil you brought......" Gong Jun commanded.
Qu Chang, who was tied up by five flowers, couldn't understand how he couldn't understand that listening to the tone of the soldiers who were confronting the west, it seemed that these people who were the generals of the expedition to the west could actually see things at night?
How is this possible?
Qu Chang was puzzled, he really didn't see it!
But why can General Zhengxi's soldiers be able to see it?!
Without torches, how can you see your surroundings clearly by just relying on the moonlight?
What the hell is going on here?
It's rare that General Zhengxi's subordinates are all monsters?
Oh my God, I'm not going to be eaten alive......
