When the sky was slightly bright, the Han army began to practice, which was a habit that the Han army had retained since its establishment, and even on the day of the war, the drill would not stop.

The Jin army at the head of the city had long been accustomed to the deafening drill sound of the Han army, and they didn't care. Especially after the leaflet incident the day before, Jin Jun was even more inappropriate.

The Jin army at the head of the city has already passed the time period when the wind is loud and the grass and trees are soldiers, for them, it doesn't matter when the Han army attacks the city, such a tall Huining Mansion is unbreakable, and the Han army will definitely not be able to kill it.

Can't kill it, it's actually a fantasy, in fact, every soldier of the Jin Kingdom has this mentality, it's not that there are no people with lofty ideals, but the Son of Heaven firmly believes that if you stick to Huining Mansion, you can kill the Han army, and the soldiers below are even if they are suspicious.

The time of the Han army's drill was the same as in the past, so it easily paralyzed the Jin army, but in fact, the time for the drill was compressed a lot, and the soldiers ended the drill half an hour earlier than usual and ate early. You must know that siege warfare is a war of life and death, and the sprinting soldiers have a lot of physical exertion, so this breakfast is unusually rich, and the soldiers in charge of cooking in the kitchen begin to be busy in the middle of the night, they are busy at night, and they can have a good rest when the soldiers are attacking the city.

After the soldiers were full, they rested for half an hour, and this time was three quarters, which was also the time when the Jin army was eating, at this time, to be honest, it was extremely immoral to launch an attack, the time for the Jin army to eat, and for a long time after the meal was not suitable for war, but the Han army launched a rapid attack at this time.

This time, the Han army played a trick, that is, all the siege equipment was assembled one night in advance and pushed directly to the battlefield the next day. You must know that at this time, the Han Empire already had a steam engine, in other words, it relied on the steam engine to push those bulky and huge siege equipment, which required few soldiers and was very fast, which caught the Jin army defending the city off guard.

For a while, countless behemoths appeared on the battlefield, looking much bigger than the previous siege equipment, the most frightening thing for the soldiers at the head of the city, or the super trebuchet that is several feet high, compared to it, the trebuchet at the head of the city is much smaller, a lot, it is simply the contrast between giants and dwarfs, the comparison of size is not terrible, what is terrible is the difference in range, which is fatal.

The trebuchet at the head of the city, with a range of up to 200 paces, was very limited in its threat to the Han army. But on the other hand, the super trebuchet of the Han army projected not stones and giant trees, but clay pots filled with fire oil, which were fire and thunder. Small size, great lethality, long range, the gap between the two can almost be said to be the gap between the Han army and the Jin army,

The range of the super trebuchet is more than five hundred steps, that is to say, their existence is almost invincible, the trebuchet of the Jin army is not a threat at all, if you have to find an enemy, it can only be said that the bed crossbow at the head of the city, but this kind of bed crossbow with a long range is too big, and there are not a few on the city wall on one side, and in fact, the threat to the super trebuchet is not very great.

It's not very big, it doesn't mean that there is no threat, in this operation, Yelu Mawu's side only got five of these super trebuchets, and the rest are trebuchets with a range of less than three hundred steps, he wants to do everything possible to protect these super trebuchets from being destroyed, so on the battlefield, these five super trebuchets are very far apart, take the lead in attacking, and after a few rounds of offensives, they will be directly put away and replaced with ordinary trebuchets to attack the city from a distance.

The lookout, the lookout platform as high as more than ten zhang is slowly pushed to the battlefield, used to command the Han army to attack the city, used to command the super trebuchet to launch, to destroy the bed crossbow at the head of the city to the greatest extent, as long as the three bed crossbows at the head of the city are destroyed, then there is nothing to threaten the super trebuchet.

The lookout of the Han army is not only to observe the changes in the battlefield, command the operation, the most important thing, but also to launch an attack, you must know that the lookout can be moved, up to more than a dozen zhang from top to bottom to attack the Jin army at the head of the city, this lethality is huge. The entire observatory is divided into four levels, the first and lowest level is the driving level, where the huge steam engine is located, and the bottom is dozens of large wheels to ensure unimpeded travel. The second layer is already the same as the height of the city head, you can use muskets to attack the Jin army at the head of the city in parallel, because it is the same as the city head, it is not good to be attacked by the Jin army, so the outer bread of this layer is covered with thick iron sheets, leaving only a dozen shooting ports, it is difficult for bows and arrows to shoot in, and the lethality is a bit like the bunker of later generations, but it will move, and the physique is not known how many times larger than the bunker.

The third layer is already more than a foot higher than the head of the city, and this layer is also the most important attack layer, and it is a double attack, the first is to use crossbow arrows to suppress the Jin army at the head of the city, and the second is to use wooden planks to put on the head of the city, so that the soldiers rush up to the city head from top to bottom to fight with the Jin army at close range. As for the fourth floor, this is the real lookout, where soldiers use clairvoyant eyepieces to observe changes in the battlefield and direct operations.

This kind of mobile lookout is very expensive to build, and it is very difficult to build, so that this time the Han army only brought ten, but this is enough, after all, this kind of crushing siege equipment, put into the battlefield for the first time, is more of a psychological shock to the enemy, and the effect is very huge.

After the super trebuchet was thrown into the battlefield, hundreds of soldiers were busy around a trebuchet, and they carried the fire thunder weighing more than 30 catties with great difficulty, and then dozens of soldiers turned the winch together, and then the fire thunder that ignited the lead was thrown out.

This kind of fire thunder of more than 30 catties is the first time to be thrown out with a trebuchet, and to be honest, everyone has no bottom, for fear that it will not be effective.

The moment the huge fire thunder ran out, the soldiers basically looked intently at the fire and thunder that flew out, and with a deafening explosion, the pot exploded on the city, and a huge bed crossbow was blown to pieces, countless Jinguo soldiers were killed, and a huge pit appeared on the city.

This loud bang opened the prelude to the attack of the Han army, the Han army rushed over like a tide, and the siege equipment was put into the battle one after another, and the battle of Huiningfu finally began, which was the battle of the Jin State to destroy the country, and this was the battle to determine the fate of the Jin State.

The first attack was done with a bed crossbow, which made the Han army overjoyed, full of confidence, and opened the next round of attack, but this time it was not a fire thunder, but a more lethal fire oil tank, you must know that once the city head is hit, it will quickly burn, although it can put out the fire, but after all, it destroys the defense system of the city head. This was a great damage to the defense of the Jin army, and of course it was the best offensive cover for the Han army.

Attack, with the blowing of the horn of the attack, the Han soldiers rushed to the battlefield like a flood beast, and the Jin army defending the city was also in full array, the trebuchet began to exert its might, and the Jin soldiers began to take a high pitch to shoot the Han army, this kind of projectile has a long range, great power, and cannot be prevented, it is a sharp weapon to defend the city.

The Jin army at the head of the city used projectiles to suppress the Han army's attack, and at the same time, the remaining two bed crossbows began to wield their might, and not only that, but the trebuchets began to counterattack.

The defense of the Jin army is impermeable, it seems that it has been carefully deployed before, and it is not easy to break through the defense line of the Jin army, and it will definitely have to pay a huge price for casualties.

If it was according to the previous way of playing, Zhang Hai would order the soldiers to speed up the pace of the attack, rush to the city wall as fast as possible, and then start the siege with the help of ladders and siege vehicles. However, he remembered Yelu Mawu's Chunchun teachings to himself, and did not say that the above is a crowd tactic, but ordered the soldiers to disperse the attack as much as possible, two or three soldiers in a group, holding a long shield to attack, the speed can be slowed down, but the rhythm must be mastered, so as to minimize unnecessary casualties.

The attack of the Han army was not as fast as the Jin army imagined, and there was no super intensity attack with a tide of offensives, and the whole offensive rhythm was very slow, which was very beneficial to the Jin army defending the city. finally confirmed a sentence that the Jin army was far stronger than the Han army.

The Jin army is stronger than the Han army, that is just an illusion, the speed of the Han army's advance is very slow, but the casualties are very small, basically the same as the number of casualties of the Jin army in the city, which is extremely rare in the siege warfare in the cold weapon era. Not only that, although the speed of the attack was slow, but due to the existence of countless large siege equipment, it can be said that it is advancing step by step, approaching the city little by little, and in fact, the threat is gradually magnifying.

The battering ram, the huge battering ram slowly pushed towards the battlefield, which was a mortal threat to the defending Jin army, once the battering ram was transported under the city gate, and constantly hit the city gate, it would not be long before the city gate was knocked open. In siege warfare, once the city gate is knocked open, the defending side will fall into total passivity. It is no exaggeration to say that once the attacker conquers the city gate, it basically steps into the city with half a foot, which is a terrible thing for the defending side.

No, the battering ram must not be allowed to get close to the city gates, otherwise the city gates will be easily damaged. The Jin army defending the city decided to switch from defense to attack and took the initiative to attack, allowing the cavalry to kill and destroy the battering ram.

In the end, the three thousand gold kingdoms were killed.

Seeing that the Jin cavalry had come out, Zhang Hai smiled, he didn't expect the Jin army to be so stupid and stupid to come and destroy the battering ram.

At this time, Zhang Hai understood that the so-called battering ram, in the first day of the siege battle, what is the use, obviously not to conquer the city gate, the most important thing is to use the battering ram to lure the Jin army out of the city, the fly in the ointment is that only 3,000 Jin cavalry rushed out, if there are tens of thousands.

Anyway, let's eat the 3,000 Jin cavalry first, after all, how can a duck in the mouth let it fly, Zhang Hai immediately ordered 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry to surround the past, including 500 musketeers, as soon as they appeared, the king of the cold weapon era, they were destined to be a nightmare for the cavalry.

There is still a big gap between the cavalry of the Han army and the cavalry of the Jin State, when the cavalry of the Han Dynasty was first formed, due to the limitations of horsemanship and cavalry, the combat effectiveness of the Han cavalry was obviously insufficient, in order to make up for the lack of combat effectiveness of the cavalry, the Han cavalry basically fought with the infantry, this tactic was very powerful, of course, the premise was to cooperate well.

After having musketeers, the Han cavalry had to cooperate with the musketeers, which was very demanding for the Han cavalry, but this time the 2,000 cavalry were not the original vassal army under Zhang Hai. It is the regular Han army, which is also the tradition of the Han army, and all the generals who have taken refuge in the army will be transferred half, which is conducive to the surrender of the generals to integrate into the Han army as soon as possible, and also to prevent these generals from defecting again, which was very necessary at that time.

Dutong Cheng Hai is the first time to fight with the cavalry of the Jin State, but he is a high-achieving student from the 800 Military Academy, for the cooperation of cavalry and infantry, the coordination of cavalry and musket soldiers is very skillful, and he locked on the target as soon as he came up, that is, to eat the 3,000 Jin cavalry.

The two thousand cavalry were divided into two teams, the left and right, facing the Jin cavalry from the side, and leaving the front wide open for the three thousand infantry, which was quite stupid on the surface, at least in the eyes of the Jin country's thousand-man Mu Shushu.

Three thousand cavalry can crush these three thousand infantry with a single charge, at least in the eyes of the wood carp, this guy still looks down on the Han army in his bones, and always thinks that the Han army has no cavalry, at most the infantry on horseback, and it is vulnerable at all, this fool ordered to attack at full speed.

Seeing that the Jin army had been tricked, Cheng Hai smiled, and he ordered five hundred musketeers to be ready for battle, another two thousand infantry to prepare swords and axes to prepare for close combat with the Jin army, and the other five hundred archers were also long-range attacks.

The musketeer is destined to be the natural enemy of the cavalry, after the appearance of this class, it will indicate the arrival of the cavalry's nightmare, you must know that the cavalry is a man with horses, the target is oversized, and the musketeer can easily hit the cavalry without aiming.

During the cavalry charge, the musketeers could fire five to eight rounds in a row, while the bows and arrows were up to three rounds, which is why the musketeers crushed the cavalry as soon as they came out.

The range of the musket is farther than that of the bow and arrow, which means that when the cavalry has not yet mounted and fired, the musket has begun to wreak havoc, and when shooting, whether it is a person or a horse, once it is hit, it will lose its combat effectiveness, which is a great threat to the cavalry.

With the sound of gunfire, more than 20 horses were hit, hundreds of horses were frightened and frenzied, and many soldiers were thrown off their horses.

The gunfire was too loud, which was a bit difficult for people to accept, but they quickly got used to it, but the war horses were not good, especially the injured war horses, and they couldn't control it at all after they were frightened. Before the Jin cavalry could react, the second round of shooting kicked off again, and more horses were frightened, and more soldiers chased the horses. The formation of the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom was suddenly chaotic, and the scene was very chaotic for a while, and it was impossible to control it at all.
