Chapter 653: What the hell is Song Jun building, is this a sentry tower? (1st Update)
Chapter 653
"Okay, let's measure and walk to see how far these stones fly......" Wang Yang was extremely relaxed at the moment, and the distance of the last stone weighing one hundred and fifty catties had exceeded the distance that the stone had flown before.
The craftsmen began to measure in a hurry, and Wang Yang paced slowly, keeping pace with the speed of the craftsmen, but he couldn't bear it. "Let's go over and see where those rocks go......"
Wang Yang could only helplessly speed up his pace, and accompanied the general Zheda, who was eager to put on his wings and fly over to watch the scene of the projectile falling.
The sixty-pound boulder was completely submerged in the ground, and it could be seen that it was surrounded by the dirt and snow that had been violently squeezed and splashed by the stones.
"Obediently, it actually fell so deep, if it fell on the building, I'm afraid that no building can withstand this thing, even if it is a city wall, there will definitely be problems." Fold can be suitable for the sound of the authentic.
"Yes, even if it is the Yuanyou cement I developed, if it is not specially reinforced, I am afraid that it will at least be smashed out of a big pit or a crack in the avenue." Wang Yang also said with a sigh on his face.
He remembered that this thing, which was later named the Huihui Cannon, could definitely be regarded as the most ferocious siege weapon before the advent of gunpowder ranged weapons.
Compared with the bed crossbow, the bed crossbow is more like a high-power unit-level lethal weapon, its range is indeed very long, and the power is also extremely great, but the damage it causes is more point-like.
Moreover, if you don't use a special crossbow bolt, even if it has been modified by itself, the weight it shoots cannot exceed twenty catties.
However, this kind of stone throwing machine is completely different, its innate conditions are destined to be a destructive long-range weapon.
It can eject objects with a very large weight, whether it is a stone or even other heavy objects, and the lethality of a heavy object will become even greater during the process of falling and rolling after it lands.
"One hundred and three zhang...... Oh my God, this, this is incredible...... "When the craftsmen reached the pit that was already about a man deep in the ground, the final number was surprising to everyone.
"More than 100 zhang, isn't that almost like our bed crossbow, we can easily bombard the city, and those Western Xia barbarians can only watch and obediently beat." Zhi Keshi was so excited that he kept patting Wang Yang's shoulder with his big hand and laughed loudly.
"It seems that it was really a bit unexpected to me, but this one is unexpected, but it is developing in a good direction." Wang Da Inventor is a serious and authentic person, but in fact, he has already blossomed in his heart.

An hour later, Fei Ting Darong, who had received a report from his subordinates, hurriedly boarded the head of the ancient city of Wuyan in the west of the city.
He didn't need the guidance of the anxious-looking defenders in the east of the city, he also saw that the position of the Song army had moved forward to a distance of about 100 zhang from the ancient city of Wuyan.
Of course, this is not the point, the point is that behind the walls that are being built, there are many Song people who don't know what they are tinkering with, and they can obviously already see that they should be four rather tall wooden buildings.
"Could it be that these Song people want to build siege towers?" Quite like Guangzan, he narrowed his eyes in confusion and looked carefully.
"I think it's a siege tower, but isn't it too late for them to think about building this thing now?" The other general next to him couldn't help but say with a mocking look on his face.
"If I want to build a siege tower in Great Xia, I need to use a hundred craftsmen, and it will take at least half a month to build, and although the craftsmen of the Song Kingdom are more sophisticated, no matter what, it will take ten days. After the past ten days, I'm afraid that there won't be anyone left in this ancient city of Wuyan......"
"The generals of the Song army can't be so stupid, right? Perhaps, this is some new weapon from the Great Song, or maybe they are building a taller watchtower to see where we are moving in the city and prepare for an attack. Another general came up with an explanation that everyone agreed.
The old man also felt that it should be the Song people who finally couldn't bear it anymore. Hehe, it's okay, our son, these days, he has already been harassed by the Song people. Fei Tingda Rong narrowed his eyes, and a cold light overflowed.
"If they don't come, if they dare to come, just let the sons and daughters sharpen their bones well, and when they come, they will immediately give an order, and then transfer 5,000 soldiers and horses, and rush to the city wall of Xicheng to wait for orders, and the other two city walls should also pay attention to strengthening vigilance, and don't give those Song dogs any chance."
Soon, there was a commotion in the entire Wuyan Ancient City, and groups of soldiers left the Dongcheng District, which was closest to the Wuding River, and marched in other directions along the road in the ancient city of Wuyan.
And there were 5,000 Xixia soldiers who sharpened their swords and rushed to the city wall of the west city and waited, waiting for those Song people to dare to attack the city, they would suddenly appear on the city wall and give those Song dogs a fatal blow.
Fei Tingda Rong and the generals did not leave here, but continued to stand on the top of the city in the west of the city, they were very curious, what kind of buildings those Song people were going to build, after all, human beings are curious, always want to wait for the mystery to be solved, this will relax.
For example, at this moment, these Western Xia generals would rather face the cold wind than see what is going on, and after half an hour, they heard bursts of cheers from the Song army camp.
And the busy figures on the wooden buildings gradually disappeared, as if the wooden buildings had been built, and they were celebrating the completion.
But the question is, what the hell are these things built by the Song people?
"How can each one be like a chess stick, could it be that in order to save time, the Song people just wanted to build four tall and pointed flags here?" A Western Xia general couldn't help but laugh and cry all over his face.
The Western Xia general next to him deliberately looked serious. "I still think that this should be the final watchtower invented by those Song dogs, maybe the Song people have mutated, and they can climb to the top of these poles as dexterously as monkeys to reconnoiter the situation in our city."
As soon as these words came out, they immediately burst into laughter, and the two guys all crooked their mouths. "Yes, yes, you're so right, haha......"
Even Na Fei couldn't help but laugh and curse when he heard Darong. "The boy from the Mi Bao family is really vicious. Okay, this is in the battlefield, don't be too frolicking, let's see if those Song people are really ready to climb up the pole, or do they want to do something. ”
