Chapter 626

"If they want to see it, let them see it, hehe, my Great Xia army of 50,000 is strictly guarding a small ancient city of Wuyan, even if the Song army finds out about our arrangement, what can they do, do they really dare to raise troops to attack the city?"

"That's the same, I really hope that these Song soldiers will come and send them to death."

"Generals, the famous general in the south of the city found that it was not the Song army who was camped in Lixu outside the south of the city, but the traitor Liang Yiqi."

"What?" The generals all puffed out their eyes, looked at each other in disbelief, and then walked briskly along the city wall towards the south of the city.

Soon, they rushed to the location in the south of the city, and saw that in addition to the high flying banner of the Great Song Dynasty, there was also a familiar Liangzi banner erected next to it.

"Bastard dog thief, not only turned his back on the enemy, but now he actually has the face to come...... It's just, it's just the old man. Fei Tingda Rong was so angry that his face turned blue, and he slapped the city wall and roared.

"My lord, do you want the last general to lead a fine horse out of the city, such a dog thief, can't let him be so arrogant."

"Bastard, this is clearly the trick of the Great Song Dynasty, which is to provoke and provoke us, if we really send troops out of the city, it is very likely that not only those rebels, but even the ambush of the Song army." Sachen couldn't wait to pick up a big stick and knock it on the head of this idiot.

"Let Liang Yiqi's old dog continue to be arrogant and proud, one day, Sa will definitely use his dog's head to commemorate the emperors of my Great Xia."

"Well, nine times out of ten, it should be the trick of those Song people, and you must not be lured out of the city easily. Those who violate the order will be killed! Fei listened to Da Rong nodded approvingly and then ordered.

After some chatter, most of the Western Xia generals who felt that there would be no big problems left the city, and only the generals in charge of guarding the city wall stayed behind to continue to monitor the Song army's every move.

"I didn't expect these Xixia thieves to be so cunning, looking at such a big bait, they weren't tempted at all." Zhe Keshi put away the binoculars with a regretful look on his face and said with emotion.

Behind him, there were thousands of elite cavalry wearing Yuan Yu armor, and three thousand iron harrier heavy cavalry, but when there was no war situation, the iron harriers were all wearing heavy armor and sitting cross-legged on the ground.

The heavy cavalry is all one person and three horses, and when they usually move, the equipment and the person each ride a horse, and the mount that really wants to go to the battlefield only carries the vest to act, so that the war horse can have enough physical strength to maintain the impact when going to the battlefield.

In order to lure the enemy, Liang Yiqi's soldiers were placed under the city, and 10,000 elite horsemen were ready to go, but those Western Xia people were really intimidated, and they didn't even have the courage to go out of the city to fight, which was equivalent to letting Zhi Keshi lurk for so long in vain.

"General, should we continue to lurk here?" The generals beside him also asked helplessly.

"Well, that's nature, just continue to lurk, there will always be a time when we can seize the opportunity, if they don't go out of the city, then we will continue to squat here, maybe after Lord Xiao Wang's gunpowder weapon is shot into the city, those Xixia thieves will be unable to bear it sooner or later." Trust me......"

Zhi Keshi spit out the grass stalk in his mouth and handed the telescope in his hand to the soldiers. "Keep an honest watch on me, and report to me if there is any change. Well, tell those iron harriers to let them remove their armor, it looks like it's going to be a dead end today. ”

At this moment, Wang Yang squatted in the east camp, watching the young men who came with the army digging the soil there, and then gathered the dirt barriers, and worked hard to build a slope platform with a width of ten zhang and a height of four zhang.

"It's a pity that there are only two bed crossbows, if you can have a few more, I believe that the damage caused to those Western Xia armies in the city will be even more felt." Wang Yang stood there with a lot of emotion.

"No way, this bed crossbow is too heavy, and it is not easy to make, and it is also very inconvenient to transport, so this time I only brought two, and there are catapults or something, but with the range of catapults, I am afraid that at most they can only be thrown outside the city that is still some distance away from the city wall."

"It doesn't matter, two are two, after Wang's test, such a bed crossbow can throw a weight weighing more than 100 catties out a mile away, which is enough, throw two hundred gunpowder arrows at a time, and those guys drink a pot."

"In addition, after this slope is built and there is a certain parabola, Wang believes that the range of the bed crossbow can be increased by one or two hundred steps, and in this way, the city center of this ancient city of Wuyan will also enter our attack range."

Listening to Wang Yang's description, the border generals around him felt too sour to think of the enemy troops far away from the range of the enemy throwing a large number of wooden objects that could ignite them into their city.

Fortunately, this guy belongs to our Great Song Dynasty, otherwise, if such a world-famous talent falls into the hands of Northern Liao or Western Xia, then nine times out of ten, the unlucky one will become the Great Song Dynasty, right?

Hundreds of young men worked hard to dig up enough earth to build up the slope platform, and those excavated places formed a trench about two feet wide, one foot deep, and two hundred paces long in front of the platform.

Even if the Western Xia people realized that something was wrong and wanted to use the speed of the cavalry to raid and destroy the bed crossbow, they had to think about whether they could cross the trench first, and they had to try to defeat the 10,000 elite foot soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty who were guarding the two bed crossbows.

Looking at those young men standing on the slope, shouting trumpets, and beating the slope that was nearly completed, Wang Yang set his eyes on the two most sophisticated long-range weapons of the Great Song Dynasty: the bed crossbow.

The bed crossbow, also known as the bed crossbow, was developed on the basis of the Tang Dynasty winch crossbow. It is the combination of two or three bows that greatly enhances the tension and strength of the crossbow. When the crossbow is opened, the crossbow string is connected to the winch with a thick rope, and the soldiers shake the winch, open the crossbow string, and set the giant arrow, and when it is fired, the soldier must slam the trigger with a sledgehammer, and the machine will shoot the arrow into the distance.

There are eight types of bed crossbows that use compound bows, which can be divided into two categories depending on the strength and range of the crossbows. One is a double-bow bed crossbow, which is equipped with two bows, respectively placed at the front and rear of the thick crossbow arm, the two bows are placed opposite each other, and when fired, a thick rope with hooks at both ends is used first, one end is hooked to the crossbow string, and the other end is hooked to the shaft of the winch.
