As soon as the sky dawned, the Han army led by Qin Hu had begun to arrange troops under the Blue Ding Fortress, the siege of the Flying Tiger Army Marine Corps was fully dispatched, and the 10,000 Silver Moon soldiers disguised as the Han Army were to defend the walled city, Liu Xin led the Xuanjia and more than 10,000 Silver Moon Cavalry to be arranged on both sides of the Blue Ding Fortress, and King Lu personally led the army to completely protect the flank of the Qin Tiger siege troops. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn fact, at this time, the hearts of every Xuanjia warrior hoped that the enemy cavalry would attack, so that they could fight happily.

The Roman soldiers guarding the fortress of Blue Ding naturally discovered the actions of the Han army very early, and they could clearly see the Han army in the distance pushing huge stone-like equipment onto the battlefield in the distance, but those equipment that was twice as large as the raft stone cart at the head of their city could have such a long range? Nothing like this has ever happened in their experience! But they could only watch, and they couldn't make any response to the Han army's preparations at all three hundred paces away.

"Check the ruler carefully, all the stone eggs will be hit on the city as soon as possible, I want to say in front, this is the first extraterritorial battle of our army, the face of the Vermilion Bird Battalion is on us, General Li also has something to say before coming, whoever dares to lose the face of the old fourth battalion does not have to go back! Yesterday, I had already said in front of King Lu that as long as the sky-bombarding cannon of my Vermilion Bird Battalion was fired, not a single arrow could be fired by the enemy! Do you hear that? "On the position of the Suzaku Battalion, Captain Wang is making the final mobilization, which is also the habit of the Suzaku Battalion.

"Captain rest assured, we will never lose the old fourth battalion, lose the face of General Li......" The soldiers kept saying solemnly in their hands, if you talk about history, the old fourth battalion is still in front of the current Han army's ace Long Xiang Huwei, it is for the Vermilion Bird Xuanwu Qinglong and White Tiger, and General Li is Li Tieniu, he has been the head of the battalion since the day the Vermilion Bird Battalion was established, and it has never changed for many years! Now the equipment battalions of the Han army are all from the branches of the Suzaku Battalion, and Li Tieniu does not know how many talents he has provided for the various departments of the Han army. And every time the siege iron bull will become the guest of honor of the major generals, everyone respects it.

Nowadays, as the various branches of the Han army are becoming more and more detailed, the cooperation between them is also more tacit, for example, the position entered by the Suzaku Battalion today was already leveled by the engineering battalion in the early hours of the morning. The soil and the wooden planks underneath it are both elastic and can maximize the long-range suppression power of the Sky Cannon, so that the stone eggs he launches can also hit the target better and more accurately.

In half an hour, the Vermilion Bird Battalion's one hundred and fifty sky-bombarding cannons had arrived, and next to each sky-bombardment cannon were three piles of stone eggs of different sizes, each with its own specific strike distance, and it was also carefully polished and studied by the equipment, and those data would even be fine. After Liu Yi unified the Han Dynasty, the equipment institute has also undergone some changes, and all aspects of military, agriculture, and production have gone hand in hand, and in the past two years, some weapons that were unimaginable have been developed.

After the position of the Vermilion Bird Battalion was erected, the general attack was about to begin immediately, Qin Hu stood on the three-zhang high platform, surrounded by the heralds and division soldiers that King Lu usually used, and they would accurately convey every command issued by Qin Hu to the front through flags and military trumpets, and the high platform erected by the engineer battalion was also more conducive to the commanders to look at the overall situation and issue orders according to the battlefield situation at any time.

For Qin Hu, this is also the first time he has commanded such an important large-scale siege operation, excitement and nervousness are inevitable, standing on the high platform and taking a few deep breaths to calm down his emotions, Qin Hu finally gave the first order. "Order the Suzaku Battalion, ten rounds of cannon fire in the sky, and suppress the enemy's defense of the city!" As soon as the words fell, the herald had already issued a flag in the direction of the Suzaku Battalion.

"Brothers, it's time for us to do it, the target, blue order the city, ten rounds of shots, hit." Seeing the banner of the command soldiers on the high platform, Captain Wang also said loudly with excitement, and with his order, one hundred and fifty sky-bombing cannons began to shoot countless stone bullets at the head of Landing City, and in an instant, the sky was full of flying stones like locusts, all of which smashed into the head of Landing City, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

The question in the hearts of the Roman defenders has now been clearly answered, and the answer is that those stone bullets that accurately hit the head of the city, at a distance of three hundred paces, the enemy's stone cart can hit the stone bullets weighing twenty or thirty pounds so accurately is beyond the imagination of the Romans. They could only watch as the stone carts on the top of the city, which were supposed to inflict great casualties on the besieging soldiers of the Han army, were shattered one after another! There are also many stone bullets that have directly had close contact with the guards of the city, and the twenty or thirty pounds of stone bullets have flown hundreds of steps, how can the power they carry be resisted by manpower? There was a scream.

Not only was the first round of strikes extremely accurate, but the enemy's stone carts didn't seem to have any intention of stopping from the moment they started firing, and the bursts of stone bullets hit the head of the Blue Fortress like a wave, and all the archers who were the main force of defense could do was to keep their bodies close to the battlements, so as to avoid the powerful stone bullets! With such a crazy offensive, the Han army will not stop, after all, they will use the infantry army to storm their fortress, and when the time comes, the flying stones in the sky will also stop.

Generally speaking, when the main force of the infantry army charges, the powerful catapult will definitely stop, because if you don't do it, you are likely to be injured by mistake, and on the battlefield there is nothing more demoralizing of an army than accidentally injuring your own people, and the veterans are even more confident in this, and the powerful offensive of the Han army will always stop.

However, today's battle-hardened Roman soldiers were destined to be surprised to the end, Qin Hu on the high platform raised the red flag symbolizing the attack, and when the engineer battalion and the forward soldiers of the Third Army began to press in, the Han army's sky-bombarding artillery had no intention of stopping at all, and there was not even any reduction in frequency! And at this time, you go to observe the stone bullets they shoot, almost none of them will knock down the city wall, eight or nine times out of ten all fall on the city, after more than ten years of development and improvement, now the accuracy of the sky cannon is by no means comparable to that day.

"The whole army assisted the engineer battalion in building a pontoon bridge." The first shock of the Third Army Sima Zhao Gang personally went up, starting from Liu Yi's army, it has become a tradition for officers of the Han Army to go to the front line to command the battle, every big battle is repeatedly emphasized, but when it comes to the battlefield, no one can take care of it, this is not Zhao Gang has long held back the strength of his stomach today to win the blue order, Qin Hu said that one day and one night, the third army will have to find a way to take it in one day! Moreover, the precise strikes of the Suzaku Battalion's sky-bombarding cannons had suppressed the counterattack of the enemy troops at the head of the city.

There were 1,500 non-commissioned men in front of the 3rd Army, and no one was carrying a large bag full of earth on their shoulders before they rushed up, plus a thousand brothers from the engineer battalion, and 2,500 large bags were thrown into the moat in an orderly manner, and the foundation of the pontoon bridge was already looming. After two back and forth, in less than two incense sticks, the engineer battalion had begun to lay the thick wooden planks on top of the big bags, and hundreds of engineer battalion soldiers on the side immediately jumped into the water to adjust the position of those big bags according to the requirements of their companions.

At the same time, although the firing frequency of the bombardment cannon has decreased, and the stone bullets are much less than the beginning, as long as the Roman defenders take the opportunity to show their heads, there will be extremely accurate stone shells rushing towards them, and the salvo just now is different, now this burst of point fire will appear more accurate and more lethal, generally speaking, as long as there are two stone carts aimed at the same target, the Han army will not be empty.

The bombardment of the cannons was prestigious, and the other brothers of the equipment battalion were not idle, and the whole thirty wells were pushed by them to a distance of one hundred and fifty steps from the Landing Fortress, each well was five zhang high, enough to be as high as the Landing City, and each well was able to be used for thirty archers to attack, and thirty wells were nine hundred archers, and the distance of one hundred and fifty steps was already the limit of the blow for the archers. A highly trained crossbowman can shoot arrows at a distance of one hundred and fifty paces.

The cloud-piercing arrow was originally the housekeeping skill of the White Tiger Battalion of the old fourth battalion of the Han army, but with the continuous progress of military science and technology, the operation requirements of the cloud-piercing bow have been continuously reduced, so the crossbowmen of each battalion must master it as a training requirement! The Flying Tiger Army Marine Corps will naturally not lack crossbowmen with superb marksmanship, and there will indeed be errors in the precision strike of the Sky Bombardment Cannon at a distance of three hundred steps, but with the assistance of the Cloud Piercing Bow, Qin Hu can hit wherever the stone bullets and Cloud Piercing Arrows want, and the Han Army's clairvoyant mirror is also a unique weapon at this time.

When the Han army's well was gradually advanced, the Roman defenders at the head of the city were completely suppressed, and they were unable to make any blow to the Han siege soldiers who had erected pontoon bridges under the city. Often, as long as the defenders show their heads, they are either smashed miserably by the flying stone bullets, or they are blocked by the arrows shot by the Han army archers above the well! After a few attempts, no one dared to show their heads.

Zhao Gang was fully prepared when he launched the attack, all the soldiers brought a strong arm shield, this shield is made of pine wood, and the inside has passed through the period process of the instrument, which is both strong and quite lightweight, and has excellent toughness, the third sergeant with the shield was originally the main purpose of covering the engineer battalion brothers who built the pontoon bridge, but the perfect play of the Suzaku battalion made these strong shields useless, but even so the third army brothers did not have any relaxation, Accidents tend to come when you're relaxed, and they want to avoid any accidents on the battlefield!
