Chapter 209: C Virus Monster Siege
[NEW](.)
In order to guard against Li Nan's army attacking the city at night, the defenders of Thang Long City lit countless torches. x
At three o'clock in the morning, just when the people of Cochin thought that they would spend the night safely, dozens of siege wooden carts appeared from the darkness, and behind them were a large number of pointed wooden donkey carts, slowly but surely heading towards the west gate of Thang Long City.
The wooden mantle cart is a kind of mobile barrier, and the "General Essentials of the Wujing" records: with the board as the curtain, the orange tree is erected on the four-wheeled vehicle, which can block the flint bow and arrow.
And the pointed wooden donkey cart is like a triangular movable house. The wooden frame is thick and thick, covered with raw cowhide to resist the blows of stone arrows. The attacking soldiers were hidden inside, which was a primitive armored personnel carrier in ancient times.
At this time, he looked at the city by the light of the fire, and said to the lieutenant general beside him with some doubts: "The enemy attacked the city at night, but there were only wooden mantle carts and wooden donkey carts, and there were no rushing carts, nest carts and ladders to climb, why is this?" ”
Although the lieutenant general has been in battle for a long time, he has never seen this situation, so he can only guess: "This... This matter is really strange, could it be that the Song people will attack the city differently than I do? ”
Although he couldn't figure out the other party's plan, Ruan Zhongyan still followed the conventional strategy of defending the city, and ordered: "The eight-ox crossbow is ready, the wooden donkey cart will first test fire a round after entering the firing range, the archers, rolling wood stones and gold juice hot oil are ready, and the catapult will first sprinkle some thistle terrestris to the city." ”
The dozens of eight-ox crossbows on the head of the city were all aimed at the wooden donkey carts, and the gold juice began to heat up, and the soldiers threw a large number of thistles terrestris on the enemy's path with catapults, and everything was ready, just waiting for the opponent to enter the firing range.
Under the watchful eyes of the cochin people who were waiting at the head of the city, the wooden curtain cart and the wooden donkey cart, which were not moving fast, entered the range of the thistle terrestris, but the soldiers pushing the cart on the other side did not appear to be overturned, and dozens of wooden carts continued to approach the city gate without hindrance.
Seeing that the thistle terrestris had no merit, Ruan Zhongyan shouted: "Eight bull crossbows, catapults, attack!" Archers ready! ”
The small trebuchet and the eight-ox crossbow began to shoot frantically at the wooden carts under the city, but the stones did no real damage when they hit the pointed wooden donkey covered in raw cowhide.
The sharp spears shot by the eight-bull crossbow were powerful, and the thick spears with a whistling sound pierced the wooden mantle and shot into the wooden donkey cart, but it seemed that nothing had happened, not even the screams of the soldiers, and these siege vehicles continued to move forward silently and tenaciously.
The attack of Li Nan's army was too calm and strange, and Ruan Zhongyan did not dare to be arbitrary, so he hurriedly ordered someone to report to Li Renzong urgently.
No one can sleep peacefully on such a night, and Li Renzong, who was worried about Li Nan's army, hurriedly took Li Daozong, the head of the civil official, Zong Tan, the general of Zhenguo, and many ministers to the city tower on the west gate.
At this time, the two siege wagons were already approaching the moat, and something happened to the surprise of the Jiaozhi defenders.
Dozens of wooden curtain carts driving in front of them actually drove directly into the river, and the huge wooden curtains were flat on the surface of the river, forming a flat passage leading to the city wall.
Hundreds of pointed wooden donkeys approached along the road made of wooden carts, against the overwhelming array of arrows, rolling wood and stones, and boiling hot oil and gold juice on the top of the city, and except for a few wooden carts that were burned, the rest of the vehicles came to the bottom of the city one after another.
Now even Li Renzong and many ministers who were watching the battle had to admit the courage of Li Nanjun's soldiers.
Not to mention the countless arrows that shot down from Cheng's head and the rolling wood and stones that fell down, let's just say that the hot oil and gold juice that were spilled, which were the sharp weapons of defending the city that the wooden donkey cart could not protect at all, and ordinary people could not bear the pain of being burned, but the soldiers of Li Nanjun under the city did not even let out a cry of pain.
The Jiaozhi soldiers at the head of the city continued to attack the hundreds of wooden donkey carts below, and after more than ten minutes, they finally slowly stopped.
Looking at the wooden donkey carts, which were littered with arrows and smashed but still silent, Nguyen Trung Yen ordered his soldiers to throw firewood, grass and torches downward, intending to set the vehicles on fire.
When the fire shrouded the first few wooden donkey carts, several terrible and terrifying roars finally sounded in the cars that had been silent, and several huge and terrifying monsters came out of the chrysalis in the cracking.
These large, ugly monsters are of various shapes, about two meters tall, covered in a thick layer of bluish and white skin, and have long sharp horns on their heads, somewhat resembling rhinoceros, but they are fused with many human limbs.
After the monster hatched from the meat chrysalis appeared, it roared again and again, and began to climb towards the city wall with its mutated sharp claws while the cochits on the city were frightened.
"Attack! Kill these monsters! Seeing that these monsters were about to come up, Ruan Zhongyan hurriedly ordered all the soldiers to attack wildly.
Not only do these monsters inherit some of the rhinoceros' forms, but they also have strong protective abilities, plus they don't feel any pain, so things like arrows and hot oil are completely ineffective against them, and only heavy objects like rolling wood and stone will cause some damage when they fall on their bodies.
The strong walls of Thang Long City made of stones, under the claws of these monsters, do not seem to be much stronger than the earthen walls, they are hard against the attacks of the Jiaozhi people, and they are extremely tenacious to jump upwards and climb, and in an instant, three or four monsters climbed the ** meter high city wall and jumped onto the head of the city full of defenders.
Seeing these monsters crawling up, Zong Tan hurriedly signaled to the imperial guards and shouted, "Hurry up!" ”
Many imperial guards held large iron shields in front of Li Renzong, covering him and other important ministers to flee to the city, and Nguyen Trung Yen also commanded the soldiers defending the city to attack those monsters, and the city was in chaos.
As more and more monsters hatched from the pupa and climbed the city walls one after another, the western side of Thang Long City fell into complete chaos.
At this moment, Li Nan and the generals under his command were all standing in the darkness looking at Shenglong City in the distance.
Seeing those terrifying and ferocious monsters fighting with the frightened and howling Jiaozhi people, everyone's expressions were different.
Wang Hu and Li Nan had been to the world of resistance against Japan, and Spartacus and Cress and others were brought back from the Roman world, so they all respected Li Nan like a god, and this time after seeing the powerful monster he created with his own hands, the awe in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen and other natives of the Song Dynasty and the Bull Roar barbarians originally only thought that Li Nan was a person with both civil and military skills and great ambitions, but now they were also shocked by Li Nan's god-like actions.
Among the people present, only Li Nan, Hu Bing, Xiaohong, and Xiaolu had been to the Resident Evil World, but even they didn't know that Li Nan had brought back six C-virus enhancement potions.
This enhanced type of C-virus agent, if injected into a living organism, will appear zombie war monsters that can obey commands, but they are not infectious.
Li Nan once used one in Gao Yu's mansion, and the diluted virus was sprinkled on the dead corpses, creating a batch of ordinary zombies and scaring Gao Yu half to death.
This time, he took out two potions and injected healthy rhinos and prisoners of war, and the enhanced C virus will automatically devour the organisms around him in the process of mutation, so as to absorb better genes to evolve, so that such a group of rhinoceros monsters appeared.
Li Nan did not explain the details to everyone, after all, as the leader of a faction, it was necessary to give his subordinates an unfathomable sense of mystery.
Half an hour later, Li Nan pointed to the chaotic Thang Long City in the distance and said, "I guess the Jiaozhi defenders should not have the energy to pay attention to us now, command the army to attack the city!" ”r
