Chapter 856: Attack!
Shen Leng and Meng Changan both knew very well that such an obvious sowing discord Qi Niu Jun and Koroleo would definitely not be fooled, but they didn't expect these two people to be fooled, but this letter would make both of them have some doubts in their hearts, even if there is only a trace of this suspicion, it is not in vain, sometimes not every strategy will work on the battlefield, but if you give up from the beginning if you think it will not succeed, you will definitely not get anything.
The Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass is too difficult to fight, Shen Leng asked the emperor for ten days, these ten days are just to wait for what Shen Leng wants to wait for, Meng Changan has always asked him what it is, Shen Leng just sells Guan Zi and doesn't say it.
Meng Changan suspected that it was the crossbow array car that Shen Leng asked the bearded Hu Duoduo to build, but the crossbow array car was a field killing weapon, but it was definitely not an engineering weapon, and the bearded man was in the army, if it was about the crossbow array car, he shouldn't have known, but he really didn't know.
In the next three days, the Ning army did not make any moves, but the black warriors on the city wall did not dare to slack off, and they were still heavily guarded every day, and the three days of tranquility even gave the people in the city pass an illusion that the Ning people were ready to give up attacking here.
The Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass is the most important node of this battle, if it is opened, the Ning army will be able to form a joint encirclement of the camp of the Black Martial South Courtyard, if it can't be opened, the 200,000 troops here can only go to Hanhai City in the pass, even if it can be combined with Wu Xinyu's Northern Frontier Army, but in fact, the advantage of destroying the camp of the Black Martial North Courtyard is gone.
If Wu Xinyu attacks northward, it will not be able to involve the Liao Kill Wolf, and the Liao Kill Wolf only needs to concentrate on this point, and there is no need to divide the troops into two lines.
The huge gap is self-evident.
For three days, Shen Leng still didn't wait for what he was waiting for.
Early in the morning of the fourth day, Shen Leng got up early as usual and started practicing, and the soldiers came in to report the situation last night, Shen Leng listened while practicing the knife, and at this time, someone outside ran in quickly, and the footsteps were very urgent.
"General, here!"
Shen Leng looked in the direction of the door, and it was Wang Gendong, the deputy commander of the Patrol Division, who ran in, several generals in the Patrol Division were very interesting, and the soldiers secretly gave nicknames according to the personalities of several generals.
Everyone calls Dewey's name Yaksha, saying that Dewey seems to be a very peaceful and quiet person, but once he goes to the battlefield, he will be as crazy as Yaksha.
Everyone calls Wang Kuohai an elephant, which naturally does not need to explain anything, in addition to being tall and strong, it is Wang Kuohai, who is naturally bigger than others, and a person who is also much larger than ordinary people in a certain place, many people joke that General Wang's elephant trunk is in the wrong place.
Therefore, Wang Kuohai will also be called General Xiangba, so that Wang Kuohai has an additional verbal word, often saying believe it or not, I will kill you like Xiangba.
Needless to say, Chen Ran is known to everyone that his name is Chen Wuli.
And Wang Gendong's nickname is also very simple and easy to understand, called an honest man.
Wang Gendong is a real hard-working person, Shen Leng is often not in the patrol division, most of the time the daily drills of the army and the tasks of the sailor are completed by Wang Gendong, Shen Leng is like a hands-off shopkeeper.
As for Shen Leng's nickname...... No one dared to take it, mainly for fear of being beaten.
Wang Gendong hurriedly ran in from outside, with an excited face: "Finally waited." ”
Shen sneered and got up: "Go unload the ship, transport the things to the outside of the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass as soon as possible, and set up the things for me in one day!" ”
One day, it really stood up.
Twenty giant catapults.
In the evening, Shen Leng and Meng Changan walked to the clearing, opposite the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass, here are the twenty giant stone-throwing vehicles that have been erected, Meng Changan looked at these behemoth-like stone-throwing vehicles, his eyes were shining: "Where did the good things come from?" Conjured up? Did you make our catapult bigger? ”
Shen Leng sighed: "If I want to make anything bigger, I can make it bigger, what do you guess I will change first?" ”
Meng Changan glared at him: "Shameless." ”
Shen Leng: "Money, I'm talking about money, what do you think!" ”
Meng Changan raised his head to look at the sky.
Shen Leng glared at him: "When I was at war with the Rilang people in southern Xinjiang, the Rilang people attacked the city with a stone-throwing cart built by the Anxi people, which was too big and too far to bring back Daning, so I found someone to draw detailed drawings, and after arriving in Chang'an, I sent the drawings to the military department martial arts workshop, and the people in the martial arts workshop began to build according to the drawings, the size is inconvenient, but it is easier and better to transport than the man-made stone-throwing car of rest, and when I left Chang'an with His Majesty, the martial arts workshop has not been built on a large scale, but it has been tried, It's amazingly powerful. ”
"I left two Fubo and five cargo ships in Chang'an, just waiting for this thing to be built, and I left someone to tell the people of the martial arts workshop that as long as there are enough twenty ships, they will be loaded and shipped north immediately."
His hand patted on the huge stone-throwing cart: "Any enemy on the battlefield can become our gentleman, teach us something, if we can rely on this thing to defeat the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass, then we have to thank the rest people." ”
"Try?"
Shen Leng asked.
Meng Changan nodded: "Try it." ”
This is under the Pros Mountain, there are stones, the army is scattered, and soon a lot of stones are carried, sitting on the side and watching Ning Jun's busy bearded face keep changing, sometimes frowning and sometimes grinning, for a while his face is solemn and sometimes smiling, he looks at those stone-throwing carts, as if he is a little obsessed. "It's going to be dark soon."
Shen Leng pointed to the side of the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass: "Wang Kuohai, Xin Jigong." ”
The two people hurriedly stepped forward: "Please give the general orders." ”
"The two of you, each with 2,000 people, with 500 people as a team, from now on keep smashing stones at the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass, and start smashing after adjustment, don't care if the place of smashing is a critical place in the city, twenty frames, no stops, people can be rotated, but the stone throwing truck has been smashed over."
Wang Kuohai and Xin Jigong clasped their fists: "Obey." ”
Yang Qibao, who had been standing next to him, looked excited: "General, smash him all night, I'll take someone to attack it early tomorrow morning!" ”
"Smash it all night? You don't need money to be a stone. ”
Yang Qibao was stunned.
Shen sneered: "Of course I don't want money...... How can you smash it overnight, no one is allowed to approach the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass for three days and three nights, just smash it for three days and three nights, Brother Qibao, if you really feel free, then take your team to carry more stones. ”
"We'll go too!"
Sumeru and White Fang, who were not far away, laughed: "I've been sulking for more than ten days in this broken place, let's vent it today." ”
Countless Daning soldiers moved, using all the tools they could use to carry the stones, the auxiliaries had more methods, they cut down trees to make rolling logs, put the stones on the rolling logs and moved over, and the Ning army gathered outside the three-eyed tiger mountain pass became quarrymans for a while, before the Ning army had a stone throwing truck, but the range was not enough, and now, the stones prepared before also came in handy.
"Smash!"
With Shen Leng's order, before the sun set, the first boulder flew towards the Three-Eyed Tiger Mountain Pass, and fell down about two zhang away from the wall of the pass, and it was empty.
"Push forward!"
Xin Jigong took off his coat, rolled up his cuffs and pushed the huge stone-throwing cart forward with the auxiliary soldiers, although the wooden wheels were installed, but the stone-throwing cart itself was too heavy to move, and it was not until it was completely dark that it reached a similar position.
Xin Jigong shouted loudly: "Don't wait until dawn to aim and measure, light up the torches around you, and release them when they are loaded, listen."
The sound discerns whether it has hit the city wall or not. ”
He commanded loudly as he ran to help carry the boulders, and the clearing was soon lit with torches, shining as bright as day.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound in the distance, the sound of stones falling on the walls.
"Almost!"
Someone shouted.
"One step further!"
Shen Leng asked people to chop some wood and set up a simple bed next to it, and he looked at Meng Changan: "You go to rest, I'm staring here, and I'll change you tomorrow." ”
Meng Changan didn't argue, and turned around and left.
This smash is a night, I don't care where it is, the stone thrower throws the big stone out from this side, the big stone disappears into the night, and then appears on the city wall, and the city wall is also lit with lights, but the stone often appears suddenly, and it is too late for the stone to appear within the range of the light, and it is too late to hide.
When it was almost dawn, Shen Leng got up from the wooden bed and moved, and asked the Huotou army to make the meal in advance and send it to the catapult position, and half an hour later, the day after tomorrow, I could already see the potholes and potholes of the city wall on the opposite side, but I had to praise that the three-eyed tiger mountain pass was indeed too strong, and it was smashed overnight, but the city wall was not smashed and cracked.
After Shen Leng ordered people to go to the Huotou Army, they began to run in circles around the rock-throwing cart position, and after running about dozens of laps, the Huotou Army sent a hot breakfast, and after breakfast, the soldiers of the Ning Army were more energetic, and the stone-throwing cart sent the stones to the opposite side.
For another half a day, with a loud click, the arm of a stone-throwing truck suddenly fell down, almost hitting someone, Shen Leng ordered the stone-throwing truck to be dismantled and moved, and the remaining stone-throwing truck was still not allowed to stop.
For two days and two nights, Ning Jun stubbornly used five stone-throwing trucks.
"Collapsed!"
On the morning of the third day, with a shout of surprise, the entire Ning army camp was boiling.
Two days, two nights and nearly half a day passed, and the number of big stones smashed over was completely uncountable, and finally the city wall of the three-eyed tiger mountain pass collapsed a piece, and from a distance you could see that there were black soldiers falling down with the collapsed city wall, and many people were buried under the rubble and rammed earth.
"Keep smashing!"
Shen Leng rubbed his temples: "Adjust the angle and smash it towards both sides of the collapsed place." ”
In this way, after noon, a loud noise came from the side of the wall of the Three-eyed Tiger Mountain Pass, and a large area of the city wall began to collapse downward, and the falling rocks and broken earth of the city bricks formed a ramp that could climb up the city wall.
"Yang Qibao!"
"In!"
Meng Changan shouted violently, stretched out his hand and grabbed the iron helmet and put it on top of his head: "Follow me up!" ”
Yang Qibao, who had been holding back his strength for a long time, drew a knife in his hand: "I have been waiting for the general's order for a long time." ”
"Keep smashing."
Shen Leng commanded loudly: "Wait for our people to stop when they are almost under the city." ”
He also put on the iron helmet, drew his knife and walked forward, Meng Changan stepped across to stop him: "Don't go up." ”
Shen Leng was stunned: "Why?" ”
Meng Changan didn't bother to explain: "You are not allowed to go up, what do you ask." ”
He looked at Chen Ran: "Stop him." ”
Chen Ran snorted, and also took a step in front of Shen Leng: "Listen to General Meng!" ”
Meng Changan strode forward, and the thousands of Daning soldiers behind him began to press forward neatly, and the boulder flew above their heads, and under the boulder, the dense soldiers were ready to charge.
"The Northern Frontier Army can not only defend the territory, but also open up the territory!"
Meng Changan pointed the black line knife forward: "If someone retreats from the battle, kill!" If you see me retreating from battle, kill! ”
One person takes the lead!
