But soon, the sarcastic look on Wu Kang's face froze.

Because the soldiers and horses who were galloping forward seemed to hear some order, they began to slowly stop their steps, and one shield was neatly erected at the front of the army, and the crossbowmen of the brigade rushed into the paddy fields on both sides at the same time, like the wings of a wild goose, directly encircling the entire hill. Seeing this scene, Wu Kang subconsciously shuddered, which meant that the enemy's bow and crossbow could easily cover more than half of the camp.

At the same time, the few cavalry of the enemy also bypassed the hill along the field path, and went directly to the back of the mountain, needless to say, it was also known that it was to find out if there were reinforcements coming from the rear.

The sword, shield, and spearmen of the brigade began to form themselves to the sound of the drums, and taking advantage of this opportunity, the baggage procession, which had been falling at the back of the line, also caught up, and the craftsmen commanded their men to skillfully assemble bed crossbows.

As a striker, the most important thing for Liao Wan's department is of course the speed of forward propulsion, so he did not carry large thunderbolts and other equipment, but bed crossbows and a few small trebuchets were still available.

Perhaps for most of the generals of Nan Chen, the most terrible thing about Shu Han's equipment is its long range and great power, but in fact, their own people in the Shu Han army know that in fact, the most powerful thing about these things is that they are easy to disassemble and carry, which is mainly due to the production method of the assembly line, so that the equipment has parts of the same size and assembly method, so that it can be easily disassembled to follow the army, and then quickly assembled on the battlefield.

As long as there is a manual from the workshop, even if there is no craftsman to guide him, ordinary soldiers can assemble a bed crossbow, it is just a matter of time.

Not only bed crossbows and trebuchets, but also the latest crossbows and repeaters, these crossbows are large in size, and they can be disassembled and folded at ordinary times, and it is not too late to open and assemble them when they are used in battle.

This naturally facilitated the advance of the army to a large extent.

For example, now it seems that the advance of the Shu Han army is very chaotic, but this is actually just Liao Wan's order to march quickly, and the army that has been strictly trained, as long as it hears the order to stop the rapid march, will naturally start to line up again, which is different from those real rabble on the hills.

Looking at the subordinates of the array and then at the chaotic Nan Chen army, Liao Wan took a deep breath, to be honest, he also doubted whether this kind of training was meaningful. The Nanchen army can already be regarded as an army that is forbidden by order, but it is obviously not on the same level as the Shu Han army that has undergone these trainings.

Strict discipline, hard training, advanced and convenient equipment, and of course, these young boys with fighting spirits on their faces······

This is the real army!

Liao Wan stood at the foot of the hill, looking ahead with his hands down, full of confidence.

"Tell Chen Zhishen that if you grind and chirp again, don't go forward." Pei Zilie stood under Wanling City, watching that the soldiers and horses of the brigade were ready.

Pei Zilie has already begun to attack Wanling here, and the city is still in the northeast of Dangtu, closer to Jiankang Mansion, but it stands to reason that Chen Zhishen, who should attack Dangtu, has only advanced outside the city until now, which makes Pei Zilie very dissatisfied. Once Tu Cheng can't take it, it will be impossible for Pei Zilie to continue to advance at the risk of being attacked on his back.

You must know that Li Xinchen is now preparing to attack in Jinxi County, and they can't grind and chirp like this.

And there was already a whistling sound around him, the stone bullets were whistling and thrown towards the city, and a large number of arrows also poured into the city, and the Shu Han soldiers began to move forward in a neat queue, the drums sounded behind them, and the wave of forward pushing forward also seemed more and more rhythmic.

The soldiers who have undergone basic queue training are basically able to keep the queue intact, and rows of people step on the earth, as if the entire Wanling City has been trampled under their feet. And the two huge ladder trucks also began to move forward slowly.

These ladder trucks are actually semi-finished products, all the way from Ba County, and only need to be simply assembled to become a ladder car that poses a huge threat to the city, after all, a city like Wanling is not a big city, and no one would have thought that the enemy would use thunderbolts and ladder cars to attack when the city was built.

With the continuation of the war, the craftsmen of Shu Han are no longer fledgling apprentices, and the use of these instruments has begun to become more and more skilled.

Of the ten thunderbolts that had now been deployed, four were responsible for suppressing the enemies on the walls, while the rest were aimed at a point on the walls and throwing stones desperately. The city walls of this era are all made of rammed earth, especially these city walls in the south of the Yangtze River, the destruction of the Hou Jing Rebellion and more than 20 years of peace have made these city walls in disrepair, so the stone bullets smashed on them, and soon a pit appeared, and soon there were stone bullets smashed into the pits, and the pits became bigger and bigger.

Pei Zilie looked at the city wall quietly, he knew very well what would happen next, in fact, now Pei Zilie's mind was already drifting away. He wondered how he could use the trebuchet even more, and how he could withstand the blow.

At least now this rammed-earth wall is outdated.

And just in front of him, the city wall collapsed, and the Shu Han soldiers of the brigade roared angrily and rushed to the gap. At the same time, two ladder trucks gradually approached the city wall.

Watching the soldiers smoothly pounce on the ladder car directly to the city, Pei Zilie's thoughts became more complicated. The form of warfare has clearly begun to change quietly, and the powerful instruments produced on the assembly lines of the workshop have clearly proved their worth existing.

The original simple ladder used for siege has disappeared from the army, and the special trench filling truck has been able to cope well with the weight of the ladder truck that has been reduced. Trebuchets and bed crossbows were responsible for suppressing the city, and as long as they could get the ladder carts under the walls, all the soldiers needed to do was line up to go up to the city.

Maybe this kind of attack is not so much of a threat to a fortress like Jiankang Mansion, but for small cities like Wanling and Dangtu, it is completely possible to directly break the city in one to two days.

Everything is changing. Pei Zilie got up slowly.

The flag has changed on the head of Wanling City.

"Report, General Chen Zhishen's forward has opened the official road, and now the army is attacking the city!" A scout came quickly.

Pei Zilie didn't feel strange about this report, but now he was a little curious, where did Li Xinchen go?

His side is progressing so fast, he doesn't want to be stuck in Quarry Rock.
