(Xie: I have thoughts on you, Siege City, Flying Snow 727 @ Baidu, moshaoco.)

g, the life of the kite, the clear sky tourmaline and other brothers' monthly passes. ）

Ge Luofeng in the city of Yang and Baa paid close attention to the movements of the Jiannan army, the Jiannan army came to the city but did not move, since the camp came to have no sign of attack, every day the military camp was crowded with people shouting and shouting, a large number of soldiers and horses went in and out of the mountains and forests on both sides to cut down trees, and the carriages and horses were weaving and transporting wood and other materials, and they didn't know what to do.

But the behemoths erected in front of the Jiannan Army camp finally aroused Ge Luofeng's suspicions, and the day after ** wantonly made that towering behemoth, Ge Luofeng sent his scouts to get close and watch. On the morning of the same day, Ge Luofeng, who was discussing the strategy of defending the city with his ministers, got the barbarian sentry who came back to report the results of the investigation. The words of the sentry agent made Ge Luofeng and his subordinates dumbfounded on the spot, and they were silent.

"Lord, those are trebuchets, two or three feet high, like a monster. I went to scout, and I met them testing this object, and the projectile was very long. The villain desperately checked the place where the thrown stone landed, and the hard ground was smashed out of a large pit, several feet wide, and the thrown stone weighed at least more than 100 catties. It's horrible, it's horrible. The brute sentry was wiping his sweat, but his face was pale with a blue tattoo, and he was obviously still frightened.

The generals looked at each other, not that they didn't want to attack, but they were actively preparing for the siege. These trebuchets built in situ may be the catastrophe that is about to befall the city of Sheep and Baa, and if the sentinel's words are true, they are extremely terrifying.

"Get down. What's so scary? Timid as a mouse. Ge Luofeng kicked over the sentry in front of him and scolded angrily. He also knew that if the Sentinel's words were true, things would get extremely tricky, but he couldn't let this pessimism creep in.

"What about trebuchets? Can you destroy the strong walls of my sheep and my city? I've seen catapults in the Tang Dynasty, and they're all useless things. Don't worry, defend the city, and if they dare to attack, give them a good look. Don't forget, we also have weapons to defend the city, so what can I do with a hundred and ten trebuchets? Ge Luofeng shouted in a deep voice.

The lord's words calmed the mood of the ministers a little, after all, relying on these trebuchets would only cause death and injury, but it was impossible to collapse the city wall. Moreover, everyone heard the cruel words that the lord of the country said when he convened everyone in a row in the past few days, and whoever was greedy for life and afraid of death at this time would be stabbed. So even if I have palpitations, I don't dare to express it.

After the ministers retreated, Ge Luofeng immediately got on the horse and took his most relied on General Ah Hu to Xichengtou, after a careful observation, Ge Luofeng frowned and said to Ah Hu: "General, what do you think about this?" ”

Ah Hu looked at the ** military camp under the city and said: "Lord of the country, I don't want to say discouraged words in front of those people, but here, I have to tell the truth." ”

"That's it. Defending the city can only rely on you and me, you and I must tell the truth, what do you think of the ** making these stone throwers? ”

"Lord of the country, Ah Hu thinks it's very bad. The words of the sentinel dare not exaggerate, it must be true. If these trebuchets were able to project a hundred pounds of boulders into the city, it would be a disaster. The walls were unharmed, but at most the top battlements and some of the recently reinforced fortifications were destroyed. But these boulders fell into the city, and the soldiers would not be able to stand on the head of the city to defend it. ”

Ge Luofeng frowned, stroked his beard under his chin, and was silent.

Seeing this, Ah Hu couldn't bear it, and said in a deep voice of relief: "The lord of the country doesn't need to worry too much, things haven't reached the point of being out of control." I think these catapults can throw 100 pounds of boulders, so their throw distance should not be too far. As long as they were within four hundred paces, the bed crossbow at the head of the city could completely destroy them. This is one of them, and the second is that the number of trebuchets is also very limited, and now it seems that there are only more than a hundred, which cannot block all my city walls, at most only a short section. The worst fear is that these trebuchets have a long range, beyond the range of my bed crossbow. And ** will continue to make this thing, and make a lot of this thing, that is the catastrophe. ”

Ge Luofeng said: "But how can we rely on this kind of speculation? If both of these possibilities are right, aren't we completely passively beaten? ”

Ah Hu said: "Then don't be too pessimistic, after all, if the city wall is not broken, ** will not be able to occupy this city." In any case, if you want to break the city, you still have to send troops and horses to attack it. When soldiers and horses are attacking a city, trebuchets are waste, because they can accidentally injure their own people. So, we can spend it with them. I suggested that a shelter be built behind the walls, and that while the stones were thrown, my soldiers and horses hid under the city except for the bed crossbowmen in the fortress. When they attack, we'll go up to the city to defend. ”

Ge Luofeng nodded slowly, and was just about to speak, when someone next to him snorted coldly: "What kind of idea is this?" Now it's time to destroy the trebuchets of the **. Will being beaten passively end well? also built a shelter, more than 100 catties of boulders fell, what shelter can withstand its damage? Brother, give me a soldier and a horse, and I'll destroy those things in **. ”

Ge Luofeng and Ah Hu turned their heads to look, but saw that not far from the city wall, Princess A Luo was walking briskly, her face full of disdain.

"Sister, what are you messing around? General Ah Hu and I are discussing a big matter, don't come to make trouble, Brother and I'm all about to explode. Ge Luofeng frowned.

Princess Aluo frowned and said: "I'm talking about the right thing, ** Yaowu has been camped under the city for a few days, and they expect that we will not dare to attack the camp, and the garrison must be very lax." If we take it by surprise, it might have a good effect. One cannot hope that these trebuchets do not have enough range or are scarce enough to be beaten. It's that we can't let them make these things right under our noses so easily. ”

Ge Luofeng shouted: "Ah Mei Mohu said that raiding the enemy camp is tantamount to sending him to death, and he should not do this. I don't want to lose people before the war. There are strong sheep and Baa City to rely on, but to attack the ** camp, this is a taboo for soldiers. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. ”

Princess Ah Luo begged: "Brother, why don't you give it a try and make a decision?" I remember that when Daddy sent out the army Langqiong Zhao, he used the method of attacking the camp by surprise, when the attack failed, and when he retreated to the wooden corridor village, the king of the Langqiong Zhao sent troops to counterattack, camped under the wooden corridor village, and sent troops to scold the war every day, and the arrogance was unstoppable. Daddy suddenly attacked the soldiers and horses of Langqiong with a small force of soldiers and horses, burned their military rations, and then Daddy destroyed them like a bamboo. Isn't that the same thing? ”

Ge Luofeng was really annoyed, and lost patience in the face of Ah Mei's entanglement, and shouted: "Daddy has returned to heaven, and now I am the lord of Nanzhao." There are still some people in the kingdom who have been in the kingdom and where they have put me. Sister, you remember, your brother may not do worse than Daddy, but you don't need to always remind me how Daddy is. Immediately retreat, don't talk too much, or I will immediately order someone to escort you back to Taihe City, and you will never be allowed to come out. ”

Princess Aluo's face turned pale, and she was so angry that tears flowed down. In my memory, my brother doted on him, and he had never said anything serious to himself, so he was stunned for a while, covered his face and stomped his feet and ran down to the city.

Ah Hu smacked his lips and coughed and said, "Lord, why do you talk like this, Princess Aluo is also a good intention, and she cares about the victory or defeat of my Nanzhao Kingdom." ”

"Hmph, I don't know what's going on, I'm too used to her, and I don't take my words to heart anymore. My father is a Ming monarch who opened up territory, am I not as good as him in my life? I know that many of you are saying behind your backs that I caused the disaster of this ** crusade, and you must have said a lot of bad things about me behind your back, so you must have said something like how the first king was alive. You are a confidant who has followed my father for many years, and I am afraid that I am also a little slandered in my heart. Ge Luofeng said coldly.

Ah Hu was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "The lord of the country can't say that, I, Ah Hu, have never said such a thing." Ah Hu has always been loyal, whether it is to the former lord of the country or to you, Ah Hu has never had the slightest contempt. In Ah Hu's view, the lord of the country is wise and martial is not inferior to the previous lord of the country, and Ah Hu has reverence for the lord of the country from the heart. ”

Ge Luofeng's face was slightly gentle, and he sighed and helped Ah Hu up and said, "That's it, I'm also irritable, and I don't have any sense of proportion in my speech." I don't blame you, you have always been my right-hand man, an indispensable person in my heart. I promise you, after defeating the **, I will marry Arosh to you. Haven't you always liked her? As long as you do your best to alleviate the current crisis for me, Arlo will be yours. ”

Ah Hu stammered a little happily, raised his head and said, "When ...... Seriously? ”

Ge Luofeng smiled: "How could I make such a joke? Arlo has to agree if she doesn't agree, I'm the master, she's yours. But only if you repel **. ”

The lines of the tiger stripes on Ah Hu's excited face were bloodshot, and the roots were about to explode, looking extremely hideous. Dong Dong Dong continued to kowtow, and shouted loudly: "The lord of the country can rest assured, Ah Hu will do his best to repel ** and live up to the love of the lord." ”
