Chapter 174: Cavalry, Infantry, Yards

Woo woo woo~!

The sound of the trumpet was heard throughout the army.

Suddenly, the army was ready to charge under the command of the trumpet!

From the side of the neat phalanx, three strange-looking, whole wrapped in iron sheets, began to move quickly.

In the middle of the iron-clad car, a cloth bag folded like a quilt is placed on the axle.

On either side, ten strong sergeants pushed the cart and ran quickly.

"What's that?"

"Is that a siege vehicle?"

"Don't you see a wooden roof?"

"No, something like this wants to break through the city gates?!"

Suddenly, the sound of the iron-clad wheels woke up several generals who were hiding under the stakes, and they hurriedly and cautiously looked around.

When he saw three strange vehicles wrapped in iron sheets approaching quickly, his eyes showed a look of doubt.

Although the gate and the city wall were made of wood, they could not be knocked down by such a human-propelled flat-headed cart.

Although he was puzzled in his heart, he didn't dare to be careless after witnessing his superiors being shot by strange crossbow arrows.

Several people cautiously lay behind the stakes, looking down suspiciously.

Below, the sergeant in the front row also saw three strange vehicles approaching through the gap in the doorway.

As you can guess from the shiny silver wagon, this is mostly defensive armor made of pig iron.

It's just that this armor is so big that it wraps the entire siege vehicle!

Similarly, the siege vehicle without a wooden roof made everyone dumbfounded.

The entire siege engine was wrapped in iron sheets, even though it could resist arrows and boulders falling from a height.

But can such a thing really break through the gates?

Ding Ding Ding!

Several daring archers immediately set up to shoot.

The arrows struck the wagon armor with a crisp sound.

The arrowheads, made of bronze, shattered in the impact.

These siege engines were not made of iron sheets, but of thick steel plates.

At the four corners, brackets were also added.

Even if a boulder falls, it will leave a small dent at most!

Bronze arrows, not to mention shooting through!

Soon, three siege engines rushed under the city gates.

Through the gap, you can see that an iron gate in front of the iron car has been pushed overhead, blocking it.

Two rows of bare-armed, strong men could already be seen carrying bags of things from the middle board and piling them on the ground.

"Delivering sandbags?"

If you put the sandbags up to the height of the city, you can directly step on the sandbags and rush up.

That's the only way they can understand.

Although the method is a bit stupid, if you fill it with your life, you can slowly build it up!

"Shoot the arrows! Hurry up and release the arrows! ”

One of the lieutenants gave a loud order.

Regardless of whether it is lowered or not, there must still be resistance.

What if it stops?

Suddenly, a dense rain of arrows fell from the heights, and large stones continued to fall, and among them, there was a golden soup that emitted a foul smell when heated!

It's a pity that these sharp weapons to defend the city fell on the iron carts, and they were of no use except to make a little mark.

Wang Li stood in the woods and observed, the corners of his mouth turned up.

Muttered disdainfully: "Ignorant fellow, the siege engine is made of stainless steel, not pig iron!" I still want to hit it with a stone, naïve! ”

At the top of the city, arrows and stones kept falling, and it looked like it was defending the city in full swing.

Behind the city gate, tens of thousands of military advisors nervously clenched their weapons and waited quietly.

As soon as the enemy breaks through the city, they will meet it and block it.

Although they were timid, they did not dare to retreat without an order from above.

Even if you are still afraid, you can only go up hard.

Soon, three small piles one meter high were built outside the city gate.

"Retreat!"

In the siege vehicle, there was a shout.

Coo~

The three siege engines began to retreat, but at a much slower pace than they had been.

On the ground, a thin, untraceable line stretched as the siege caravan retreated.

It stopped only when the siege vehicle retreated a hundred meters away.

Zizi~

Three small flames ignited and spread rapidly along the fuse left behind.

On the city tower, several generals looked at the faint green smoke burning on the ground, glanced at each other, and each other's eyes showed doubts.

Gunpowder, a product that appeared unexpectedly because of Fang Shi's alchemy, how could they know it!

But then again, alchemy can actually refine gunpowder, what do these alchemists add to the Dan furnace?

The elixir that is practiced is equivalent to swallowing the explosives in the stomach!

Don't talk about immortality, it's good to have a good end if you don't have a bad stomach!

However, swallowing an elixir with mercury may be able to prevent ...... after death!

The flames spread like a snake and soon reached the city gates.

In a puzzled gaze, the flames rose into the sky.

Along with it, there were three loud noises!

Boom Boom!

In an instant, the gates cracked, and even the walls made of wood and bamboo collapsed.

A cloud of smoke and dust!

The sergeants in the rear only felt their ears buzzing, and a huge wind and wave hit them, and they fell to the ground one after another.

Even those at the back of the queue who had not been impacted were stunned by the loud sound!

In the smoke and dust, screams and frightened shouts continued.

However, the border army formation on the opposite side stood still, and it had already become familiar with this kind of heaven and earth cracking taste in training.

By the time the explosion sounded, preparations were already made to charge.

really

An impassioned trumpet sounded.

"Rush!"

"Drive!"

Suddenly, the sound of dense horses' hooves sounded in the open field.

30,000 elite horsemen, under the command of the horn, took the lead in the charge!

In the battle with the Huns, it has been proven more than once that everyone will be in a trance after experiencing such a huge explosion for the first time.

When the enemy is like a headless fly, it is the perfect time to charge!

At a distance of a kilometer, under the rapid charge of the cavalry, they quickly rushed to the front.

At this moment, the smoke and dust of the explosion dissipated.

The sergeants in the line behind saw that the city gate in front of them had disappeared.

Along with it, the walls made of wooden stakes and bamboo next to them also collapsed, revealing a huge gap of more than 20 meters!

The ground was littered with blood and severed limbs.

The archers, far from the city walls, fell to the ground, clutching their wounds and wailing in pain.

And several generals who were checking on the city tower have disappeared without a trace.

On the ground, fragments of armor belonging to high-ranking generals can occasionally be seen.

Twenty meters away, there's a half-blooded helmet!

"Witchcraft, it's witchcraft!"

Suddenly, panic spread among the defenders.

The main general was shot inexplicably, which had already caused morale to be low to the bottom.

Now, under the loud noise, even the city gate is gone, and several generals are nowhere to be seen.

At this moment, the defenders' minds were completely collapsed!

In my ears, I heard the sound of horses' hooves.

When the smoke and dust cleared, I saw that countless cavalry had already killed in front of me.

If Fusu is here, he will definitely complain:

"Is it better for the cavalry to have horses, or for the infantry to have no horses......!"
