As the bed crossbow winch at the head of the city continued to rotate, huge arrows flew out from the city, and the siege vehicles and wells were reduced to pieces, and the soldiers hiding inside also died tragically on the spot.

Soon, there is no longer a complete siege vehicle and well in sight on the battlefield, these bulky and slow-moving big guys, in front of the bed crossbow, are a live target, even if one arrow does not hit, it doesn't matter, take a breath, another arrow, shoot until you are defeated.

The ground outside the city was filled with long arrows, each of which was more or less interspersed with several corpses, the arrows embedded deep in the earth, and the tails of many of them were still trembling in the air.

In fact, in general, the casualties brought by the bed crossbow to the Great Qi army were not very large, and they were not even as large as the bows and arrows shot by the defenders at the head of the city.

But the deterrence it brings is far more than any weapon, those catapults of the Great Qi Army, can not accurately hit the bed crossbow at the head of the city, after a few stone bullets tested, not only the giant crossbow at the head of the city was not destroyed, but smashed to death a lot of soldiers of the Great Qi Army under the city, after all, relatively speaking, the proportion of soldiers of the Great Qi Army under the city is far greater than that of the defenders of Luoyang, and the possibility of being concentrated by stone bullets is naturally magnified many times.

The soldiers of the Great Qi Army watched the siege vehicles being destroyed and the wells being knocked down, but they had no power to fight back at all, and the despair in their hearts was simply indescribable.

And those soldiers who were killed by the giant arrows shot by the bed crossbow were even more miserable, basically they were killed by touch, and injured by touch, many soldiers of the Great Qi Army were directly hit by the giant arrows, and the whole person was torn apart by the huge impact brought by the giant arrows, and the internal organs flew everywhere.

The soldiers who were not shot to the point also lost the part of their wound in an instant, maybe it was a hand, maybe a foot, maybe a head.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the Great Qi Army, death was not terrible, but dying so heroically was completely beyond the scope of what they could accept.

The Great Qi Army, which has lost the siege vehicle and the cover of the well, has completely lost the opportunity to attack Luoyang City, after all, you can't expect them to bite the walls of Luoyang City with their teeth, right?

Soon, the soldiers of the Great Qi Army left behind a corpse and slowly evacuated from Luoyang City.

And the situation of the Luoyang defenders at the head of the city was not much better, the bearded man was killed in battle, and most of the people who came to support were also lost.

The casualties of the soldiers of the Shouwang army were good, except for some unlucky ghosts who were shot by stray arrows, and a very small number of people who were hit by huge stones thrown by trebuchets, there were basically no losses, after all, the two warring sides did not have time to make real contact, and the attack of the Great Qi army was driven back by the bed crossbow.

In addition to the loss of personnel, the Shouwang Army was already not abundant in materials, and the consumption was also very huge, most of the arrows in the city were consumed, and many medicinal materials for healing injuries were also consumed, and they could only be topped with medicinal materials with slightly inferior effects.

And the bed crossbow that had just made a big splash in the city, because of the continuous shooting, was directly scrapped five units, and they couldn't be repaired.

The giant arrows dedicated to the bed crossbow have been consumed, and there is not much left, if the Great Qi army attacks again at this time, I am afraid that the defenders of Luoyang will really be powerless.

Fortunately, the Great Qi army had already been shocked by the huge lethality brought by the bed crossbow, and at least for a while, it would not attack again.

In terms of the proportion of battle losses, this was a complete victory, and the casualties of the defenders of Luoyang were only seven or eight hundred, while the Great Qi army left at least three thousand corpses under the city.

But Scar and the others in Luoyang City are not optimistic in their hearts.

The defenders of Luoyang City are one less dead, and for the Great Qi army, the casualties of 3,000 people are not a lot of injuries at all, this can only be regarded as a casualty of a tentative attack at most.

And with the delay of time, the available materials in Luoyang City will become less and less, and the defense will become more and more difficult, while the Great Qi Army outside the city may get new support at any time, destroying a lot of their siege equipment today, and they will be able to make a comeback tomorrow, and the two are not the same at all.

……

"Wei Zhongyong, explain to me, didn't you say that there were only 10,000 defenders in the city, and there were no defensive measures? Where did those bed crossbows come from, and did they fly here? ”

In the camp of the commander of the Great Qi Army, Qin Zongheng walked back and forth in the camp tent, and finally the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, he grabbed the tea bowl on the table and asked loudly towards Wei Zhongyong, who was kneeling on the ground.

Wei Zhongyong watched the tea bowl fly towards him, rapidly dilating in his pupils, but he didn't have any dodge or resistance, but closed his eyes and let the tea bowl hit his head.

The pottery tea bowl smashed into Wei Zhongyong's face with the power of Qin Zongheng's anger, and it was instantly shattered into several pieces, cutting Wei Zhongyong's face into a long wound, and blood gushed out of the wound in an instant.

Qin Zongheng looked at the embarrassed Wei Zhongyong, he still felt puzzled, rushed up again, stretched out his right foot and kicked Wei Zhongyong to the ground.

And Wei Zhongyong still didn't have any superfluous movements, just stabilized his body and continued to kneel on the ground.

"The handsome man is angry, the handsome is angry!"

The ram cart on the side saw that Qin Zongheng was going to continue to chase, and hurriedly reached out and grabbed Qin Zongheng, so as not to make things even more out of control.

"You waste, let you take 20,000 horses to fight the outpost, you are good, you were turned upside down by a thousand people, and now you have made a false information, causing heavy losses to my army, and most of the siege equipment has been destroyed, are you bought by the little rabbit cub of King Shou? Are you talking? ”

Qin Zongheng, who was pulled by the ram cart, was still angry, and yelled viciously at Wei Zhongyong.

Tian Yuanhua frowned, and said softly, "What is the Marshal talking about, I believe that General Wei is by no means the kind of person who eats inside and outside, and I am afraid that there is something else wrong with this matter." ”

"Yes, I'm afraid General Wei was also deceived by thieves, most of the time you can't blame General Wei for this matter, and you can only blame King Shou, a little bastard, for being too cunning." Ram Che nodded, and said approvingly, "When Luoyang City was under the rule of our Great Qi, there were no defensive tools in the city, let alone bed crossbows, presumably these bed crossbows should have been secretly obtained by King Shou later." ”

"Dashuai, the power of these bed crossbows is extremely huge, far more than those we have seen, and it is very likely that they are the secret weapons that King Shou has developed recently."

Qin Zongheng nodded when he heard this, pondered for a moment, and said slowly, "Maybe, but no matter what, General Wei, you are responsible for the failure of this attack, do you understand?" ”

"The last will be convicted!" Wei Zhongyong glanced at the ram cart and Tian Yuanhua gratefully, and then said with a sincere face towards Qin Zongheng.

"Well, it's good to know your mistakes, so how do you make up for your mistakes?" Qin Zongheng glanced at the wound on Wei Zhongyong's forehead, sighed and said, "I beat you, do you hold a grudge against me?" ”

"The last general will not dare! The handsome is like the father and brother of the last general, and beating and scolding the last general is also for the good of the last general, which is the blessing of the last general. Wei Zhongyong lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, the last general has already arranged for people to enter the city, and tonight the last general will sneak into the city, lead people to destroy all the bed crossbows at the head of the city, and steal the city gate open!" ”
