276 King Wu has an order, run to the city!
Chu Tianxiu hurriedly came to the city, climbed to the highest arrow tower, and immediately took a telescope and looked at Wu Jun in the distance.
But I saw that the 200,000 troops of the Wu army stopped five miles away.
In the Wu army's array, every ten soldiers carried a huge wooden shelf in their hands, the wood was thigh-thick, and it was all strong wood.
There were as many as 5,000 pairs of such wooden shelves, which were carried on the shoulders by 50,000 infantry soldiers of the Wu army.
They were so big and eye-catching that Chu Tianxiu could actually see them clearly.
How do you describe these wooden shelves?
It's a right triangle.
One side is one zhang, one side is three zhang, and finally one side is... It's about three feet long!
Such a wooden frame is so heavy that it takes ten people to lift it.
These thousands of wooden shelves are almost identical.
It's weird.
The soldiers and civilians in Danyang County have never seen such a strange thing, and there are many discussions.
These things were obviously not ladders, siege engines, or stone throwers, and they couldn't understand what they were used for.
The 200,000-strong army of the Wu army stopped at the south gate of Danyang City, about five miles.
They also did not surround Danyang County, obviously only wanting to break through the city wall on one side. Then they will take the city, and if the people in the city want to escape, they will still be able to escape through the other gates.
"Hmph, this time the little dusk is dead!"
Xiang Xian, the son of the world, rode on a horse, his toes were raised, and his eyebrows were dancing.
The generals of the Wu army are also full of confidence. They have this siege weapon in their hands, and they will never stop taking Danyang City.
Wu Wang Xiang Bi rode on a high-headed horse, stood in front of the Wu army, and shouted coldly: "Xiao Duhou, this king heard that you are known as the new generation of war gods of Great Chu?"
When this king was young, he fought for more than ten years, and it was difficult to seal the enemy. Except for Li Rong, the king of Ping, who has not served anyone!
This king wants to see today, you are a god of war, you have a little quality, you have not fought a few tough battles, you dare to boast of the god of war! ”
Wu Wang Xiang Bi waved his hand and said coldly: "Put the wooden frame together!" ”
The Wu soldiers immediately assembled the wooden frames.
These right-angled wooden shelves, stacked on top of each other. Every ten wooden frames were tied up with ropes and combined to form a right-angled plank bridge, about a meter wide.
There are as many as 500 such one-meter-wide wooden bridges. When put together, that's a full 500 meters wide.
“...”
"This..."
At the head of the city, Li Yu, Xiang Tiange, Shen Wanbao, Li Kangnian, all the generals, and the Danyang soldiers who were guarding the city were stunned for a while when they saw this.
No matter how dull they are, they can see a little bit of fame.
It's clearly a wooden slope!
Put the wooden frame slope to the head of Danyang City, and hundreds of thousands of Wu troops rushed up directly along the slope.
Not to mention the infantry of the Wu army.
Even the war horses of the Wu army can rush up the slope made of wooden frames, and directly rush to the head of Danyang City, and the horse steps on the head of Danyang City!
...
"it!"
"Wu Jun... This is going to charge directly to the city?!"
Chu Tianxiu suddenly felt cold all over his body, and his cold hair was about to explode.
He has always avoided fighting field battles with the 200,000 troops of the Wu army, because he was worried that he would lose too much by fighting on the flat ground in the field. wanted to rely on the city of Danyang County to fight a positional defensive battle to deplete the strength of the Wu army.
However, the one-zhang high and 500-meter-wide wooden slope allowed tens of thousands of soldiers to form a thick and dense phalanx, and at the same time rush to the top of the city.
They didn't need to climb the ladder with both hands at all, they directly held swords in both hands and rushed to the head of Danyang County.
At the head of Danyang City, it is only two zhang wide, the army is very thin, and only a few thousand soldiers are deployed on the head of the city, but it is at a serious disadvantage.
The strength of the city defenders on the city wall, how can this stop the Wu army corps from charging?
Chu Tianxiu didn't expect this King Wu to be so fierce.
...
"Little Dusk!"
Wu Wang Xiang Bi waved the whip in his hand and sneered, "It is your ability to force this king to come up with this method to attack a small county town in your district!"
The congregation will listen to orders. 50,000 foot soldiers, carrying a wooden frame for the assault! At all costs, rush to Danyang City. No matter how many people die, build an inclined wooden bridge. ”
"Yes!"
Immediately, five generals led the order, with the 50,000 foot soldiers of the battalion, carrying 500 pairs of extremely heavy inclined wooden frames on their shoulders, and galloped towards the county seat of Danyang.
To prevent fire.
These wooden frames have all been watered and soaked.
Even with wet clothes, put on top. Even if it is fierce oil and fierce fire, it will not burn these wooden frames for a while and a half.
"Ten thousand light cavalry obey the order and follow him!
As soon as the wooden frame under the city was erected, it immediately rushed to the top of the city.
This king wants to see the wonder of 10,000 cavalry horses stepping on Danyang City!
Those who cut off the head of the little faint marquis will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold, and they will be crowned earls! ”
Wu Wang Xiang Bi shouted loudly again.
"Yes, King!"
Immediately, 10,000 light cavalry set out, murderously following behind the 50,000 infantry, ready to charge.
The cavalry charge was extremely fast.
Rushing up a slope is just a few breaths.
Even if the head of Danyang City is full of Danyang musketeers, they only have time to shoot once, and they will definitely not be able to fire a second shot.
Tens of thousands of war horses rushed to the head of the city, directly rampage, even if the head of the city was heavily armored infantry defending the city, it would definitely not be able to withstand their impact.
The rest of the army obeyed the order and slowly advanced. After breaking the city, he immediately entered the city and captured the south gate. Kill all the way through Danyang City! Drive all the imperial troops out of the city. ”
"Yes! King! ”
The generals of the Wu army were ordered, and each led the army of their own camp and slowly began to march towards Danyang City.
...
Danyang City Head.
The generals of the imperial court were all stunned, looking at each other and at a loss.
They had never seen such a ferocious style of play.
It is also because King Wu has a strong army that he can build so many slope wooden frames so easily.
Just this wooden frame of the slope that is more than three zhang long, and 500 meters wide, King Wu dispatched 50,000 foot soldiers and rushed towards Danyang City with them.
When attacking Wanling City, King Wu did not adopt such a tactic.
Wanling City is as high as two and a half zhang, and the longer it is, the less sturdy it is. Wood is prone to breakage and collapse.
To create such a wooden slope, which can withstand thousands or tens of thousands of horses galloping on it, it must be extremely strong, huge and heavy, at least three times heavier than this.
The soldiers of the Wu army could not lift it at all.
It is more convenient to climb directly with a ladder that is more than two feet high. It's just that you can't run a horse on a ladder.
"It's over!"
"This Danyang City can't hold it at all!"
Shen Wanbao's frightened eyes straightened, and he sat down on the head of the city, and suddenly cried, and his bowels were blue.
I thought that Danyang City had guns and cannons, and it would be difficult for the Wu army to rush up, and it must be safe to defend the city.
Who knows, King Wu actually used such a fierce way to create so many wooden slopes, and directly used Danyang City as a racecourse.
The cavalry charged up to the head of Danyang City, and they didn't have to stop for a moment.
Who can withstand them?
