Chapter 306: The Triple Alliance
At the same time, outside the city of Shaohao.
The three kings of the tribe of the mountains, the tribe of Sarah, and the tribe of Vado, were listed before the coalition forces.
The three kings, all with bitter faces.
Because this war was a bit unexpected to them, they originally thought that the three tribes working together would be enough to break through Shaohao City in one month, and then everyone would share food, money, and women.
As a result, what I didn't expect was that this dozen was fought for four whole months.
What's more, in the past four months, the coalition forces have suffered extremely heavy casualties, and of the 50,000 coalition troops, there are now only 30,000 capable fighters.
This loss was something that the three kings themselves did not expect.
This directly made King Sara and King Vado feel the urge to vomit blood.
Of course, in the final analysis, all this is because Shao Hao has very powerful weapons, crossbows, swords, and Changge made of bronze.
Their crossbow arrows had an effective range of up to 400 paces, and every time the coalition army attacked the city, thousands of arrows were fired at the head of the city, resulting in heavy casualties and a pile of corpses, so they had to retreat.
Of course, during this period, the coalition forces also stormed the city wall several times.
However, after several times the coalition army rushed to the city with huge casualties, they were killed by the defenders of Shaohao City without leaving a piece of armor.
All of this is because the weapons of the coalition army are so poor, and the weapons of Shaohao's defenders are simply different.
There was no way, the bows and arrows of the coalition army were wooden, and the effective range was only 100 steps, and under the suppression of Shaohao's crossbow arrows with a range of 400 steps, the coalition archers could not approach the city to shoot at all.
There are also spears (javelins) and stone spears of the coalition army, which cannot be compared with Shaohao's bronze swords and bronze Changge.
Bronze sword, bronze Ge, its sharpness, the leather armor of the coalition army for this advanced weapon, no protective effect, often a sword can be the coalition soldiers and people with leather armor, piercing.
On the contrary, the weapons of the coalition army are limited in their lethality to Shaohao's defenders.
Therefore, under the disparity of this weapon, this Shaohao City, the coalition army could not regret it for a while, it can be said that it could not be attacked for a long time, and it suffered a lot.
In the end, there was really no way, so the coalition forces had to suspend the siege and spend a month building a large siege machine, the trebuchet.
In this way, dozens of trebuchets, using heavy stones and fireballs, attacked Shaohao City for several days, and finally changed their previous disadvantage.
Under the continuous attack of the large trebuchet, Shaohao's crossbow arrows directly lost their effect, and the 10,000 defenders were also under the onslaught of heavy stones and fireballs, killing and wounding, and even Shaohao's heavy city wall was smashed and crumbling.
Now, seeing the crumbling Shaohao city wall, almost all the people defending the city are people, and the three kings all see the hope of breaking the city.
So they decided to launch the final general attack today and take Shaohao City in one fell swoop!
The 30,000 coalition troops set up a position and waited for the order to attack the city.
However, at this time, there was a sudden cheer from Shaohao's city wall.
There was a bit of excitement and excitement in the voice!
Everyone was a little stunned, and they didn't understand what this was going on.
"The defenders of Shaohao City, who were originally demoralized, saw that the coalition army was about to attack the city, and it stands to reason that they should be desperate and panicked, why did their morale suddenly rise at this time?" The king of the Sara tribe frowned and wondered.
The kings of the mountain tribes and the kings of the Wado tribes were also puzzled.
The king of the mountain tribe turned to the people around him and asked, "Can any of you understand what they are shouting?" ”
One of his men said, "King, they seem to be celebrating the arrival of reinforcements. ”
"Reinforcements?"
Everyone was stunned, and quickly looked around, the surroundings were very quiet, and there were reinforcements with a hammer.
The three kings didn't care about this, and the king of the mountains sneered: "Shao Hao has no allies, who in this world will come to the rescue of Shao Hao, you must have heard it wrong." ”
Sara and King Vado nodded approvingly.
Shao Hao is a Yin merchant and is not a local ethnic group, so the surrounding forces do not tolerate him.
What's more, now that his three tribes are attacking him together, what tribe would be foolish enough to make enemies of the three tribes of Gaoshan, Sarah, and Wado, and help a foreign race?
Obviously, this is not possible.
However, at this time, the subordinate advised: "Return to the king, your subordinates have not heard it wrong. Listening to their words, it seemed to say that the Great Qin Emperor came with thousands of troops and horses. ”
"What? The reinforcements are Great Qin! ”
At this moment, the faces of the three kings changed drastically.
Because they remember very clearly, those bronze weapons of Shao Hao were said to have been transported from a tribe called Daqin.
In other words, Da Qin is indeed Shao Hao's ally.
Speaking of which, the reason why everyone will form a coalition to attack Shao Hao together this time is because Shao Hao has this advanced bronze weapon.
This kind of bronze weapon poses a very big threat to everyone.
In order to completely eliminate the threat, and at the same time to snatch these bronze weapons in Shao Hao's hands, the three tribes of Gao Shan, Sara, and Wado will join forces.
And now, when they heard that the Great Qin tribe with bronze weapons had a large army coming to the rescue, could these three kings not panic?
You must know that Shaohao is because he has the bronze weapons sent by Daqin, so Shaohao City will not be able to attack for a long time, and the coalition army will be killed or injured by nearly half.
And if the Great Qin tribe really comes to reinforce, then the coalition army will usher in a great enemy.
"Are you sure you heard me right?" King Gao Shan hurriedly asked.
The subordinate affirmed, "I can understand their language, and the reinforcement is Daqin." ”
Ga!
All three kings were stunned.
"What to do? In case Great Qin really comes, our weapons can't fight against bronze weapons at all. King Sara was a little worried.
King Vado also looked solemnly at the King of the Mountains.
Seeing the fear of Sara and King Vado, King Gao Shan hurriedly said, "Don't panic, you two, I heard that the Great Qin tribe is thousands of miles away from here, and it is impossible for them to send troops to reinforce here. I doubt it...... This is a scam! ”
"Fraud?" Sara and King Vado were stunned.
"That's right, this must be a fraud!" King Gao Shan nodded, and analyzed with a confident face: "The reason why Shao Hao shouted so loudly is obviously intentional, so that we can hear it, and he wants to use Daqin's name to deter us, so as to scare us away. ”
Speaking of this, the King of the Mountains sneered, "Heh, this is really a good ploy. ”
Of course, if he had read the book of Chinese soldiers, he would definitely replace this sentence with the words "soldiers who surrender without a fight". However, it's terrible to be uneducated, so children still have to read more.
When the two kings Sara and Vado heard this, they couldn't help but nod.
I have to say that this analysis of the King of the Mountains is still very reasonable.
That legendary Great Qin tribe is said to be separated by the vast sea, and Shaohao was attacked, how could Great Qin learn this news?
In other words, even if the news of Shaohao's attack by the coalition forces can reach Daqin, it will take half a year, and Daqin will send reinforcements over, and it will take another half a year.
What's more, the coalition forces only started attacking Shaohao four months ago, so it was obviously even more impossible for Daqin to send reinforcements to help Shaohao.
Thinking of this, the two kings of Sara and Vado couldn't help but praise: "It's still the King of the Mountains who is cautious, if it weren't for your reminder, we would have almost been deceived by that Shaohao." ”
King Gao Shan smiled proudly: "The Shaohao defenders have died under our trebuchet, and now they are defending the city all ordinary people, even women. Now, seeing that we are about to launch a general attack, he naturally despairs, knowing that it is impossible to resist our heroic coalition soldiers anymore, so he wants to use the name of Great Qin to scare us back, hehe, come up with such a plan, which also shows that they are powerless to fight anymore. ”
"Yes, yes, the King of the Mountains has analyzed it thoroughly, we can't do it, haha." The two kings, Sara and Vado, burst out laughing.
King Gaoshan proudly stopped and said, "Of course, even if the Great Qin tribe really came by coincidence, it would definitely not be reinforcements, because we only started attacking Shaohao four months ago, and it is impossible for Great Qin to know about this in advance." Therefore, even if the Great Qin tribe comes, it is estimated that it is the Great Qin mission, and it may be to send weapons to Shao Hao. ”
When the two kings Sara and Vado heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and the king of Vado smiled: "If this is the case, then it is very good, it is equivalent to sending us weapons, hahaha!" ”
"Yes, yes, King Vado is just smart, haha." King Gao Shan also raised his head and laughed, and then said, "So, the people of the Great Qin Clan, whether they are here or not, for us, there is no need to be afraid. If it is a mission to transport weapons, we have 30,000 troops, and we just eat this Great Qin mission in one bite. ”
Everyone nodded their heads.
To be honest, at this time, not only did everyone have no worries, but they hoped that the Great Qin tribe would come, and it was best to come to a Great Qin army to escort weapons. In this way, it is even more beautiful.
"Wahaha ......"
Thinking of the excitement, the three kings looked at each other and couldn't help laughing again.
Because as long as you get enough bronze weapons, you can become the overlord on this continent and then rule the world.
After dispelling his worries, the King of the Mountains did not delay any longer, and immediately ordered the siege of the city.
"Trebuchet ready!"
At the command of the king of the Alpine tribe, dozens of trebuchets of the coalition army moved to the city.
"Siege!"
With an order, the trebuchet began to launch a fierce assault.
Heavy stones and fireballs, with a whistling sound, smashed towards the city wall of Shaohao.
Each heavy stone of the giant trebuchet weighed 100 catties, and the city wall shattered and collapsed, and the dust rolled up.
There was also the fireball, which smashed on the city wall and exploded directly, and the raging fire instantly devoured the people defending the city head, and for a while, the entire Shaohao city wall screamed in the sky......
Bang bang bang......
The trebuchet never stopped, and heavy stones and fireballs smashed into the walls like crazy.
This smash is half an hour.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, a section of Shaohao's city wall finally couldn't withstand the continuous bombardment of the boulders and suddenly collapsed. Suddenly, the dust swept into the sky......
"Whew! Call! Call! ”
The 30,000 soldiers of the coalition army cheered up excitedly when they saw the city broken. One by one, they were like chickens, waiting for the king's order, and then attacking Shaohao City......
