Chapter Ninety-Four: Hand-to-hand Combat Begins
"Boom!"
Under the city wall, the barbarians pushed countless siege equipment to advance slowly, and the tall lever weapons were the first to attract everyone's attention.
"Shhh
"The whole army obeys the order!"
"Dodge the female wall, keep your hands on the bow!"
The fat man's pupils quickly widened, and when he saw that the barbarian was using a trebuchet, he immediately shouted to the herald.
The old men who used to belong to the detention operation reacted very quickly, and they were already clinging to the women's wall almost at the same time as the fat man burst into drinking.
The recruit's reaction was always a little slower, and he was stunned for a moment before dodging in a hurry.
"Bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Dozens of pounds of boulders, like a summer solstice rainstorm, hit the city wall of the pass hard.
The loud noises and vibrations are all terrifying!
"Ahh
It didn't take long for screams to be heard, and stones were falling on the unlucky ghost.
The abyss-like sound made the recruit's body tremble, his eyes unconsciously showed fear, and he didn't even know where to throw the weapon in his hand!
"Don't panic! Don't be afraid! ”
"The trebuchet won't last long!"
Seeing this, the fat man took the risk and kept shuttling around, shouting at the top of his voice, trying to save some morale.
The old man finally reacted, and followed the fat man to appease the recruits.
About half an hour or so, the stone rain gradually decreased, the fat man's eyes flashed, and he immediately shouted to the herald beside him: "The whole army is armed with arrows and bows, listen to the fat master's order, and shoot at eighty paces!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the barbarians below the pass surged, some pushing the ladder, some pushing the well, slowly moving towards the pass.
"Hemp eggs! There are all the wells, where did the barbarians get the siege equipment? The fat man shouted angrily.
The well is usually three stories high, and it is a kind of siege weapon for ascending, and it can accommodate twenty or thirty soldiers above, forming a confrontation situation with the pass.
"I don't know!" Luo Li replied subconsciously.
At this time, he was in a state of pain and happiness, not only happy that his father Luo Tianlei had given such siege weapons to the barbarians, but also had a headache about the current situation of life and death.
"One hundred steps!"
"Ninety steps!"
"Eighty steps!"
"The whole army obeyed the order, let go of the well and ladder, and shoot the barbarian soldiers in the rear!"
The fat man silently calculated the timing, and the moment he reached the effective range, he stood up with his big knife raised and burst into drinks.
At the same time, more than a dozen thousand people on the city wall will give orders to attack one after another.
Suddenly, ten thousand arrows were fired, and the rain of arrows in the sky was pouring down against the barbarian army, and countless injuries, wailings, and tramplings occurred!
"Take the bow! Second round, shoot! ”
"Take the bow! Round 3, Shoot! ”
"Take the bow! Fourth round, shoot! ”
"The whole army obeys the order, lift the stone!"
After the four rounds of arrow rain poured, the fat man did not stop at all, and gave the order to lift the stone.
The soldier reacted quickly, threw down his bow and arrows, and waited for the boulder that had been prepared next to him for a long time.
Fortunately, during this time, I experienced Luoli's new training method, otherwise it would be a problem whether the soldiers could react quickly.
"Boom!"
Suddenly! The sound of a powerful bowstring was heard!
Luo Li raised his eyes and looked, and the city-guarding crossbow standing on the wall of the pass finally let out a roar!
Each city-defending crossbow is equipped with four giant spear-like arrows, and hundreds of city-defending crossbows fire in a volley, giving a shocking blow to the barbarians.
However, the crossbow did not intend to kill the enemy, but to destroy the well and the ladder.
Otherwise, the 10,000 people in charge of the defensive battle would not be so close to each other before they could order the launch of the crossbow to defend the city!
It's a pity that the distance has been shortened, and the city defense crossbow has only destroyed more than a dozen wells and ladders in one round, which can only be a drizzle for the barbarian army with sufficient siege equipment.
"The whole army obeys the order, throw!" The fat man suddenly gave the order.
All the soldiers poked their heads out, lifted the boulder in their arms, and smashed it down on the barbarian army.
"Attack Shaga!"
The barbarian generals issued an order to shoot arrows at about the same time.
The barbarians on the three-story well had hideous faces, and they all showed cruel smiles, and the bows and arrows in their hands kept shooting towards the pass.
The soldiers who couldn't dodge were hit by arrows and fell to the ground one after another, and the wailing instantly caused the recruits to stagnate, and they all looked sideways at the miserable robes beside them.
"Don't be stunned, throw stones!"
At this time, the veterans' sense of battle has been rekindled, and they remind the recruits next to them as much as possible.
"Bang!"
"Fatty, the ladder is up!" On the wall in front of Luo Li, a ladder object suddenly stretched out, and he immediately burst into applause.
"Lift the log!" The fat man was in danger and decisively gave the order again.
Rolling logs can be pushed down ladders, which can greatly kill and injure enemy soldiers and deter them from climbing.
The ladder is not the common kind of ladder that can be pushed down by reaching out, its full name is 'ladder car', equipped with shields, winches, grappling hooks and other equipment.
On top of that, it has wheels underneath that push it close to the city walls, and the ladder unfolds to form a support point that cannot shake its position no matter how much the defenders on the walls push.
"Lao Bai, is the boiling oil ready?" The fat man suddenly turned around and shouted.
"Right now!" Not far below the city wall, Bai Zijin's majestic voice came.
"Hurry up, the barbarian is about to go up to the city wall!" The fat man yelled anxiously.
It didn't take long for Bai Zijin to command more than 20 soldiers to hurriedly arrive at the city wall with a cauldron of boiling oil.
"Wow!"
"Ahh
The oil pot was poured suddenly, and the overwhelming hot oil rain sprinkled down the dense barbarian crowd, and suddenly the screams broke through the sky, and the heart-rending scene greatly shocked the siege fighting spirit and made the defenders temporarily relieved.
The good times did not last long, it seemed that the boiling oil inspired the ferocity of the barbarians, and countless people rushed to the city wall one after another, and soon some barbarians rushed to the wall and killed two soldiers fiercely.
"Draw your sword! Get ready to kill! The fat man roared and drew a big knife to meet him.
What moved Luo Li was that the fat man knew that he couldn't wield a gun and a stick, so he gave him all the only ten strong soldiers.
In the Angolan army system, there are only 1,000 generals and more than 10 pro-soldiers, and 1,000 adjutant generals are not allowed to have them.
In battle, the soldiers usually follow the main general, protect the safety of the main general, and cannot leave easily unless it is absolutely necessary.
So the fat man's move was nothing more than to keep the danger to himself and give Luo Li safety.
"Kill!"
The fat man danced with a big sword, and killed three or four barbarians who rushed to the city wall one after another.
Seeing this, Bai Zijin decisively gave up the prison guard and protected the fat man's left side with a long sword, the two of them killed the enemy very quickly, and the blood and minced flesh of the barbarian were all over his body.
Luo Li, who was temporarily safe, raised his eyes to observe, the shortcomings of the recruits were completely revealed, and on the second wall of the entire third pass, only the fat man's thousand-man battalion held its position and the barbarian army swarmed up, and the rest of the place was temporarily in a stalemate.
"Whew!"
Exhaled deep turbidity, bent his five fingers and clenched the big knife, Luo Li must be on it!
"All the relatives and soldiers obey the order and attack freely within one zhang!"
"Kill!"
The moment the order was given, Luo Li raised his knife and rushed towards the nearest barbarian, his eyes exploding!
