…

"Wait and listen, the heavenly soldiers of the court have arrived, quickly open the door and surrender, and spare your life, if not, when we attack it, we will definitely kill you and leave a chicken and dog behind!"

Han Tao's voice was not small, and his voice reached Guanghui's ears very clearly.

Guanghui picked up a few beads and twisted them, and said: "Don't talk nonsense, even if you attack, the Sprinkle family wants to see if you can break through the iron wall of my Liangshanbo!" ”

Guanghui's voice fell.

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

……

A rain of arrows shot at Han Tao!

"Divine Arm Crossbow! Evacuate! ”

The people around Han Tao immediately raised their big shields to block in front of Han Tao, and then escorted Han Tao to a safe place!

Guanghui has already told the official army with facts that he and the Liangshan army will not surrender!

Han Tao came to Hu Yanzhuo and the others who were standing in front of the 3,000 horse army, and said, "General, this gang of thieves is stubborn, let's attack directly!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo also dispelled the last trace of luck and said, "Prepare to attack!" ”

Han Tao and Peng Xi responded in unison: "Yes!" ”

Subsequently, under the command of Han Tao and Peng Xi, the officers and soldiers were busy - the crossbowmen stepped forward one after another, lined up outside the mountain gate, and the shield soldiers also stepped forward with shields to provide cover for these crossbowmen, and the people even moved the siege equipment and siege tools such as stone throwing cars, bed crossbows, chariots, ladder cars, wooden curtain cars, ladder ladders, and wooden curtains to the places designated by Han Tao and Peng Xi in the shouts of Han Tao and Peng Xi. In addition, Peng Xi also asked the man to cut down a big tree and put it on the rushing car, ready to act as a ram for the rushing car.

And the pass seems to be very busy—Zhu Jing and Ou Peng are running around shouting, the Liangshan shield soldiers erect large shields to block the archery mouth, the Liangshan crossbowmen wind up the divine arm crossbow and load the crossbow arrows, the people move the rolling wood and stones and other things to the place designated by Zhu Jing and Ou Peng, and light the dry wood under the oil pot and gold sauce pot that have been prepared long ago.

Judging from the performance of the Liang Shan army, it seems that they are ready to resist to the end.

After tossing and turning for a while, the officers and soldiers were finally ready to attack.

At the same time, the Liangshan army on the pass seemed to be ready.

With Han Tao's order, the stone throwing cart and bed crossbow fired a salvo!

In an instant, four boulders and more than two dozen bed crossbow arrows smashed and shot towards the pass!

A stone thrower is also called a stone truck. Its structure is very simple, make a horizontal axis on a wooden frame, and intersperse a long rod between the shaft and the horizontal axis, one end of the rod is tied with a leather hole containing stones, and the other end is tied with dozens or more than 100 ropes.

When using it, put the stone into the leather hole, and when the order is given, everyone pulls the rope together, and the leather stone is thrown out as if it were flying.

During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao used a catapult to break through Yuan Shao's camp and won a great victory.

During the period from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, the use of stone throwers in combat gradually increased.

Nowadays, the stone throwing machine is getting bigger and bigger, and the stone throwing machine brought by Hu Yanzhuo has required hundreds of people to pull the rope to throw the boulder, and each stone can even kill several people, which is definitely a sharp weapon for siege.

Although the stone thrower is powerful, but because it is too bulky, it needs to occupy a large number of people and other shortcomings, in comprehensive comparison, it is more practical to use a bed crossbow.

The range of the bed crossbow can reach 500 steps, which is the farthest range and the most powerful crossbow at this time, and it can be described as the overlord of the crossbow.

The arrow fired by the bed crossbow is made of wood as a rod, the head of the iron spear is used as the arrowhead, and the tail wing is made of the iron sheet feather, which is known as "one shot and three swords and arrows", in fact, it is a short spear with a feather, the destructive power is huge, if it is used to attack the city, the city barrier is not finished, if it encounters the earth city and wooden wall, it is like being destroyed.

The bed crossbow can also be used to fire "stepping arrows", nailed to rammed earth walls in rows, for siegers to climb the city, like a mobile ladder.

Or, put a pocket on the bowstring, hold dozens of arrows at a time, and at the same time send out a storm like a storm, called "jackdaw arrow", which is really a rare sharp weapon.

In the battle of Lanyuan in the first year of Jingde of the Song Dynasty, the Song army even shot the Liao army's chief general Tart Lan with a bed crossbow, which contributed to the Song-Liao peace conference.

It is not difficult to see from the fact that Hu Yanzhuo took out these two big killing weapons to attack the city as soon as he came up, Hu Yanzhuo's name as a famous general is well deserved, and he is a person who understands soldiers, and it can also be seen that Hu Yanzhuo is preparing to take Shuibo Liangshan in one go!

Although the Guanghui battalion is the earliest battalion built in the Liangshan army, when it comes to the real war, it has never experienced it once, how can the opponents encountered when going out to borrow food before be compared with the regular army brought by Hu Yanzhuo, not to mention, Hu Yanzhuo used the stone throwing car and the bed crossbow, two big killing weapons that the Liangshan army had not touched!

Therefore, as soon as the battle began, more than a dozen soldiers on the side of the Liangshan army were killed by boulders or shot by bed crossbow arrows.

Most of these Liangshan soldiers had big shields in front of them before they died, and in the training they received in the past, as long as they stood in front of them, they would not die, but now they are ...... Some were flattened by boulders, and some were pierced by bed crossbow arrows!

This will undoubtedly make the surviving soldiers of the Liangshan Army wonder whether their previous training is reasonable.

And the most demoralizing of the Liangshan army is not those soldiers who have died, but those who have not died after being hit by boulders and bed crossbow arrows, and their howls are the most demoralizing - hearing their miserable howls, how can these soldiers of the Liangshan army who have never been on the real battlefield not be frightened, how can they not be afraid? Some of the cowardly people even ran around like headless flies, and then were killed by flying boulders or shot by bed crossbow arrows, which increased the casualties on the side of the Liangshan army!

This is the biggest shortcoming of the Liangshan Army at present - the Liangshan Army has not been baptized on the battlefield and is not a real army.

This is also one of the reasons why Li Yan, Liu Huiniang, and Wen Huanzhang chose the battlefield in Liangshan.

Although Guanghui has a good martial arts, but the green forest is born in the green forest, and now his command ability is not good, at least not in terms of experience, he doesn't know how to deal with this kind of emergency, and even he himself was shocked by the huge power of the stone thrower and the bed crossbow!

At the critical moment, Ou Peng, who was still from a military family, reacted faster.

Ou Peng shouted: "Get out of the way, hide behind the wall, don't run around!" Their arrows can't destroy the walls we have reinforced with concrete, so don't be afraid of it! ”

Guanghui also reacted and shouted: "Hide behind the wall!" Don't stand at the mouth of the arrow! Don't run around! ”

There is one thing that is very good about the Liangshan soldiers, that is, they are extremely obedient!

After listening to Ou Peng and Guanghui's shouts, except for a few who were completely frightened and continued to run for their lives, everyone else got out of the way and hid behind the city wall!

As a result, there were almost no more deaths from boulders or crossbow arrows from beds.

On the other side, Han Tao, who was in charge of commanding the siege, was overjoyed when he saw that the Liangshan army was beaten by only one wave of attacks, and immediately said: "The siege team is ready!" ”

After listening to Han Tao's order, the officers and soldiers in charge of pushing the siege equipment such as the carts, ladder carts, and wooden curtain carts, as well as the officers and soldiers of the siege team, immediately took their places, and even the officers and soldiers in charge of pushing the carts were on standby!

However, Han Tao did not directly let the siege team go up, but first let the shield soldiers and crossbowmen rush to the range of the bow and crossbow under the cover of the stone thrower and bed crossbow, and then shot arrows, and pressed the Liangshan soldiers together with the stone thrower and bed crossbow, so that the Liangshan soldiers did not dare to take the head, and then ordered: "The siege team is on!" ”

With Han Tao's order, the officers and soldiers pushed several wooden mantle carts and made a row of heads, followed by ten chariots, which hid the two officers and soldiers, and then the ladder carts hiding behind the wooden mantle carts and the chariots and the officers and soldiers who resisted the ladders.

The battle to attack the first pass has now completely begun......
