Chapter 214: Siege of the City (15)
With a sudden force on his legs, he clamped the horse's belly, Gongsun Yun took the lead and jumped over more than ten meters, and at the same time completely crossed the Mengshan trail and arrived at the wilderness at the foot of the mountain.
Gongsun Yun just grabbed the reins and stretched out his arms, and before the soldiers who followed behind him blew the horns to attack, he saw that the Feng family army patrols and craftsmen in front of him were stunned in place, and then they threw away the materials on their shoulders, turned around and ran, even those patrols were the same, they didn't even put on a vigilant look, they also turned their heads and ran away with their weapons. But among all of them, there was a lack of a reaction after suddenly discovering the enemy, that is, the cry for help after panic, and all this was naturally discovered by the shrewd Gongsun Yun.
"Oh no, I've been tricked! There is an ambush! Gongsun Yun secretly complained in his heart, although he still hadn't found an ambush, but everything in front of him was enough to make people sure that there must be an ambush.
"Woo. Woo woo woo ... ”
At the same time as the Feng family's sergeants and craftsmen in the camp fled, the dull sound of the horn rose from the ground, and almost in a few seconds, the entire camp was enveloped in it. The sound of the horn suppressed by the space, in desperation, had to crowd in the air to find an exit, and that exit was naturally the Mengshan trail leading to the camp.
A steady stream of horn sounds, one by one poured towards the Mengshan Trail, crossed the Gongsun Yun and others led by them, entered the Mengshan Trail, and the slightest trace entered the ears of the rebels who still did not walk out of the Mengshan Trail, constantly knocking on their heartstrings, and constantly warning their brains and thoughts.
"Haha. General Gongsun is so courageous! Dare to lead the army into Ben Hou's pocket! In the sound of the horn, which made the rebels feel extremely annoyed, a hearty laugh sounded, and as the door of the Chinese army's big tent in the middle of the barracks opened, Lin Feng walked out slowly, and there were only a dozen personal guards around him, and the eyes that looked at Gongsun Yun were full of endless smiles, but there was too much contempt in them.
"Lin Feng, don't be rampant! My tens of thousands of troops are here, and it is difficult for you to fly today! Although he was very surprised in his heart, but for the morale of the rear army, Gongsun Yun had to cheer up, raised his arm and stretched out his hand to point at Lin Feng and scolded: "If you surrender now, this general can also intercede with Chen Jiedu and spare you a way to live!" ”
"Tut-tut. The tone is not small, Ben Hou's life still needs Chen Xiao'er? Lin Feng chuckled and shook his head slowly, asking in a disdainful tone. Immediately, his face sank suddenly, his eyes stared at Gongsun Yun and shouted, "Gongsun Yun! Ben Hou Nian is not a person who has committed the most heinous crimes, if you dismount and surrender now, Ben Hou will not only protect you from death! And you can personally plead with the Son of Heaven, and Datang can also reuse you again! ”
"Haha. Chen Jiedu treats me like a brother, how can I betray him in such a situation? Gongsun Yun raised his head arrogantly and laughed, then waved his hand at the army that was slowly lined up behind him, and shouted: "The whole army obeys the order!" Fight your way into the camp! ”
"Huh." Seeing that the other party didn't know what to do, Lin Feng didn't want to bother talking, after all, from the information given by Xiao Liuzi, he had already learned that there was almost no possibility of Gongsun Yun surrendering, and it was just a scene just now. Seeing that the other party was already about to attack, he no longer hesitated, sneered, and shook his head at a personal soldier beside him.
"Boom!!" The soldiers understood, threw the huge drumstick in their hands into the air, and while catching it with their backhand, they threw it at the war drum with a diameter of more than half a zhang under the steps of the Chinese army's big tent, and suddenly made a strong and heavy sound.
As the sound of the drum spread through the air, it was like a series of commands were transmitted in all directions. Immediately afterwards, before Gongsun Yun and the others had time to fully charge, the front row of the camp tent door was suddenly lifted, and when it landed, the rebels who rushed to the front row were taken aback, and some cavalry even almost fell off their horses.
They were too familiar with the things in front of them, the killing weapon of the Feng family's army, the ballista. The next second the tent door was lifted, the ballista organ, which had already been wound, was triggered.
"Whoosh. Whoosh. ”
Because of the size of the site, there were only a dozen camps facing the rebels, so the number of ballistae that the rebels met was not much, only in their mid-thirty. But these ballistas are completely different from those used by the Fengjia army under the city of Yazhou, because this time it is aimed at the two armies against each other rather than attacking the city, under Zhuge Cheng's research and improvement, these ballistas can fire three crossbow arrows at the same time, and the side of the ballista is equipped with an automatic loading device, basically after the first round is launched, the crossbow arrows on one side will automatically snap into the crossbow groove.
At the same time as the automatic loading of arrows, the controller can also charge the crossbow string simultaneously. At the same time, because the ballista in this case does not need to be too strong, the entire launch and preparation are much easier than the original ballista. However, compared with the previous ones, the attack power of this ballista is greatly reduced, but in the face of two hundred meters of light cavalry, it is more than enough.
A wanton roar, like a curse from hell, pierced into the rebels one after another, and suddenly there was a cry of terror and the wails of those who were hit by crossbow arrows. What's even more terrifying is that at this distance, the penetration of crossbow arrows is extremely powerful, almost no crossbow arrows are shot after killing a person and then lose their effect, often two people, three or even four people in a row, only under the disappearance of inertia and the action of gravity, fall to the ground, and finally string these unlucky eggs into a string of "human sugar gourds", into various postures nailed to the ground.
What is even more pitiful than this is that the rebels who were strung together, struggling with each other, originally trying to avoid physical pain, but in the end, because of the back and forth twisting of the body, their own wounds expanded, and the blood slowly flowed down the crossbow arrow, and the body also slowly slipped down the extremely smooth arrow, and finally with a variety of painful expressions, they "peacefully" lay on the ground or on the body of their companions, and gradually died with the blood in their bodies.
Among them, Gongsun Yun was relatively lucky, because he was only shot by a crossbow arrow and fell to the ground, and the loyal war horse twisted his huge and sturdy body before falling to the ground, cooperating with Gongsun Yun's beating, so as to avoid the consequences of being crushed into flesh by the war horse.
Everything passed too quickly, and when Gongsun Yun got up from the ground and reacted, the ballista in the camp was already loading the third round of crossbow arrows, and the progress of the rebels was only less than fifty meters, but at this fifty-meter distance, hundreds of rebels had already died under the attack of the ballista.
"Rush! Everyone! Stick it up! Smash those guys!! Brothers, rush! Looking at the tragic situation behind him, Gongsun Yun's eyes widened, his face was full of anger and waved the horizontal knife in his hand, jumped to the side, dodged a crossbow arrow flying in front of him, and at the same time, his feet hit the ground, and suddenly jumped on a war horse without his master, and then pedaled the horse, and led the army to charge again.
