Chapter 20: Reality

Catapults are as high as two or three zhang, and even some large catapults are as high as seven or eight zhang.

Such huge catapults had to be disassembled to be transported to the battlefield and then built and assembled. Generally speaking, it is more suitable for siege and fortification.

This time to attack the Yan army, Tong Guan was afraid that the last incident would be repeated, so he insisted on taking these catapults.

Originally, Tong Guan spent money all the way to buy it, without any obstacles, and it stands to reason that he should be faster than the Yan army, but he was dragged down by these bulky catapults, so he would march slowly and lag behind the Yan army.

Now the Shenhuo General Wei Dingguo has descended from the ox cart and the catapult, which is still under construction, and there is no way to fight back for a while.

Hearing that the catapult had not yet set up an arrow, Tong Guan was taken aback, and he shouted, "What are you doing to eat?" The enemy is killing our soldiers, but you are still grinding, what a crime! ”

When Wei Dingguo, the general of the Divine Fire, saw Tong Guan angry, he was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Lord Prime Minister spare your life!" The last general did not dare to rest for a moment. As soon as they arrived, they immediately began to build catapults. Really not lazy. Please also have a good understanding! ”

Seeing that Wei Dingguo still dared to quibble at this time, Tong Guan was immediately furious, and the horsewhip slapped on Wei Dingguo's face, leaving a hot scar.

Tong Guan pointed at the rear army of the Yan army and shouted, "You are not lazy? Then why have the enemy already started throwing shells. Our army ......"

Before, Tong Guan saw that his soldiers and horses were attacked by shells, and he was busy ordering the Shenwu army to counterattack, and he didn't pay attention to the rear of the Yan army at all.

It was only at this time that Tong Guan discovered that there were no tall catapults in the enemy's rear army formation at all.

Tong Guan shouted in shock: "Where did their shells come from?" ”

Divine Fire General Wei Dingguo said bitterly: "The last general...... Ignorance! My lord, our catapult has a range of only three or four hundred paces, and if we fire it here, it will only hit our own soldiers. You can only push it forward! ”

"It can't be!" Tongguang almost frantically roared: "Then why can the enemy's shells hit us, and their catapults are there." Could it be that they can reach twelve or thirteen miles? Why can their catapults shoot so far? Why? ”

Tong Guan was roaring and scolding.

Wei Dingguo, the Divine Fire General, couldn't answer any of his questions at all, thinking that he didn't know either.

Song Jun was seen building a catapult.

Lin Chong was disdainful, when was it, and he was still using a catapult.

We've long since stopped it, and now we have long-range, more accurate artillery.

Lin Chong shouted: "The first and second platoons of the artillery battalion continue to attack the Song army, and the third platoon will replace them with solid bullets and destroy all those wooden shelves!" ”

When Chen Sheng heard this, he immediately shouted: "Order!" ”

He ran to the artillery battalion and shouted: "Three platoons for solid shells, aim at the wooden shelves, fire!" ”

Soon, three rows of artillery with solid bullets lit the letter fire, bang. More than 30 shells roared straight towards the Catapult position of the Song army.

Although shooting at a long distance, it is difficult to completely destroy the wooden frame with a direct hit. However, as soon as the shell hits any of the pillars of the wooden frame, the catapult tilts and becomes useless.

Thirty artillery, under rapid fire, those catapults that had been built for a long time, before the long wooden levers were installed, they were directly scrapped.

A cannonball almost hit Tong Guan in front of him.

I saw the iron bullet in front of me crash into the wooden frame of the catapult, catapult to the ground, and then roll in front of me.

Wei Dingguo, the general of the Divine Fire, was taken aback by him, and he hurriedly persuaded him: "My lord, let's withdraw first!" ”

Tong Guan had already been devastated, he had lost his mind, and shouted: "No, I don't believe it. Keep attacking and grab their catapults for me. I'm going to see what their catapults are like! ”

To this day, Tong Guan still thought that it was a catapult that could throw cannonballs so far.

In order to defeat the Yan army, capture Yanjing, canonize as the king, achieve extraordinary achievements, and leave a name in history.

This time, Tong Guan recruited hundreds of carpenters and built nearly 200 catapults.

even pulled his henchmen and horses over the Western Army, in order to be able to rely on the tactics of crowds and a large number of catapults to crush the past.

But now the Yan army is using a new weapon that has never been seen before, leaving his soldiers and horses in a dire purgatory.

thinks that the victory is in hand, but the scene in front of him is ruthlessly slapping Tong Guan's mouth.

For a while, Tong Guan couldn't accept such a reality, and thought about killing the past and taking the Yan army's catapult.

Tong Guan fell into a magic barrier, but Song Jun was unlucky!

Tong Guan thought that he also had a catapult, believing that he could strike at the opponent, so he did not order the withdrawal of troops at the first time, or dispersed.

This time, the artillery of the Yan army is not polite.

Under several rounds of bombardment, the Song army had not yet recovered from the tinnitus and dizziness caused by the explosion.

Not to mention the Yan army, the generals who looked like tigers and wolves were also extremely vicious, riding tall horses and rushing into the Song army to find that, waving big knives in their hands, and harvesting the lives of Song soldiers.

It was originally bombarded by artillery continuously, with heavy casualties, and the morale of the Song army was low.

The assault of many soldiers is tantamount to playing a decisive role.

Song Jun's fragile nerves collapsed at once!

And at this time, Suo Chao, the vanguard of urgency, must rush forward in every battle, and after he hacked Liu Ming to death, he saw that there were four or five generals in the rear army of the Song army surrounded by a person.

Suo Chao expected that this person must be Tong Guan, and he hit his horse and galloped towards Tong Guan.

Whoever stood in front of his horse was really to death, and before he could get near the horse, he was hacked to death with his gold dipped in axe gold.

Suo Chao beat the horse like flying, and along the way, no one could stop him for a moment, which could slow down his speed.

Seeing that Suo Chao was about to kill Tong Guan, it was the former flying dragon general Yumei who led the soldiers and horses to block Suo Chao.

Deng Fei, who followed closely, laughed and shouted at Suo Chao: "General Suo has conceded, and this time Deng will take the first credit!" ”

When Suo Chao heard it, he immediately shouted: "Don't rob it, that's mine!" ”

Where would Deng Fei be polite at this time, he slapped the horse and killed Tong Guan.

Wei Dingguo, the general of the Divine Fire, saw it and shouted: "Hugh is rampant, I will meet you!" ”
