Chapter 982: The Great War Begins
After everything was ready, the morale of Liu He's army had climbed to the peak, he knew that now he had hundreds of generals in his army, countless capable people, more than 300,000 soldiers in the whole army, and also made hundreds of new wheeled stone throwing vehicles, hundreds of large ladders, in addition to thousands of warriors who were good at shooting, and thousands of crossbow machines that could fire fifty crossbow arrows in an instant.
Therefore, on April 18, the third year of the Han Dynasty, after nearly two months of silence, the war was ignited again at the head of the city, Liu He gathered all the forces under his command, led all the soldiers to the city, and launched a crazy attack on the city without even explaining a word.
"Hmph, do you really think that Lin Cheng and I are easy to be attacked?" Genghis Khan watched the Han soldiers use the rotating stone-throwing vehicle to bombard the city indiscriminately, his face was gloomy, the range of the stone-throwing vehicle was very far, there was no long-range weapon in the city to shoot, so a large number of stones fell on the top of the city, which had a great deterrent effect on the Mongolian soldiers, except for some warriors in the army who used weapons to block the flying stones, the other soldiers were all hiding behind the female wall.
"This has brought a very large number of defensive stones to our army, and I can see how you will attack when the time comes. As for mine and Lin Cheng, rest assured, it will definitely not be worse than the defense of Tongwan City, but will be stronger, and if you want to break through this city, it is simply a fool's dream. Genghis Khan stood safely at the head of the city, the stones were flying, and the four dogs around him blocked it, so he was not worried about this at all, and stood at the bottom of the city and said lightly.
Liu He under the head of the city also had a gloomy face, because he could see that although the stones fired by these stone-throwing trucks seemed to be very threatening, whether it was the destructive power of the city wall or the lethality caused to the enemy army, they were all unsatisfactory, and the battle lasted for half an hour, and the stones were used for more than half of the stones, but the other party was only stoned to death by hundreds of people, and although the city wall looked a little potholed on the surface, it was actually still extremely thick, and it was absolutely difficult to cause substantial damage in a short period of time.
"It's a pity that there is no support from the cannon, otherwise what would this small city be?" Looking at the still strong city, Liu He was also helpless, but since the war started, if he withdrew like this, it would not only deal a blow to his morale, but also give the other party more time to prepare.
Therefore, although Liu He couldn't bear it, he could only order the cloud ladder to be pushed over, and then start the siege.
With Liu He's order, I saw hundreds of ladders erected on the four city walls, and the soldiers began to climb the ladders and rushed towards the city.
Although it was under the cover of the catapult, many Mongolian warriors who did not dodge saw this scene, so these people immediately began to deal with it, first of all, it was natural to destroy it with their sharp arrows, but these ladders are all solid and heavy, and it is really difficult to forcibly destroy them with the power of bows and arrows, and because this ladder is folded, the soldiers of the Han army are hidden on the back of the ladder, and it is difficult for bows and arrows to cause them any damage at all.
Of course, there are exceptions to this, such as Jebe, one of the four dogs under the command of Genghis Khan, who shot through the ladder with his outstanding archery skills, causing a lot of damage to the Han soldiers.
Although Jebe's bow god skill could not be activated because of Genghis Khan's skill, his archery skills were already outstanding, so he still brought a lot of lethality to the Han army in this situation.
At this time, I only heard a general in the Han army camp snort coldly and said loudly: "Is it that only the Mongolian army has sharpshooters, and there are no in my Han army?" This time, I will also let you see my archery skills. ”
When everyone heard the voice, they saw that the person who spoke had white hair, but there was still a disobedience to the old man on his face, and they all admired it in their hearts, especially the soldiers under his command all shouted loudly: "Old General Huang is mighty!" ”
The veteran was naturally Huang Zhong, and when he saw the soldiers under his command cheering, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Watch me shoot this man first, and then it's not too late to cheer." ”
After finishing speaking, Huang Zhong lightly stretched his ape arm, bent his bow and arrow, and shot directly at Jebe.
Jebe was shooting the soldiers of the Han army with a bow and arrow, but suddenly heard a sharp sound of breaking the air not far away, his face suddenly changed slightly, just listening to this sound, he knew that this was a feather arrow that attacked him, and the owner of this feather arrow was very strong, at least able to open a strong bow of three stones, with such speed and strength, even he did not dare to slack off, so he did not dare to take it hard, and dodged the feather arrow sideways.
But he heard a scream from behind him, and it turned out to be a cowardly Xue soldier who couldn't dodge and was killed on the spot by this feather arrow.
Not only that, but this feather arrow also pierced the body of this pro-soldier, and then shot into another cowardly pro-soldier and shot him to death, and then stopped.
Jebel didn't have to look back, just listening to the wind and screaming to know how powerful this feather arrow was, he knew in his heart that the person who shot this arrow must be the top archer in the world.
Jebe looked in the direction where the bow and arrow were fired, and saw a white-haired veteran standing there coldly, the feathered arrow in his hand scattering cold light, aiming in his direction.
"I said that anyone could shoot such an arrow, and it turned out to be him." Jebe immediately guessed Huang Zhong's identity, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly aimed his feather arrow at Huang Zhong, preparing to break the bow and arrow with a bow and arrow.
Seeing a flash of light, Jebel knew that it was Huang Zhong's shot, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately shot this arrow.
His arrow was not aimed at Huang Zhong, because he knew that with a marksman like Huang Zhong, he could easily dodge his arrows, so his arrow was mainly aimed at Huang Zhong's feather arrow.
After a while, I saw two feather arrows meet in the air, arrows to arrows, and collide with each other, which made the soldiers on both sides who watched this scene stunned, two feather arrows shot from different directions could collide together so accurately, what kind of magic skill should this be?
And what was even more shocking was that the feather arrow shot by Huang Zhong not only shot Jebe's feather arrow in half like a bamboo, but then ran forward directly without any hindrance, and then shot directly into Jebe's left shoulder, who was already stunned by this scene.
This scene not only shocked the soldiers on both sides, but even Liu He and Xue Rengui were shocked.
Xue Rengui secretly pondered, it would not be difficult for him to smash the feather arrows of the two people together like Jebe, but if he could not only shoot through the opponent's feather arrows like Huang Zhong, but also let his feather arrows hit Jebie without hindrance, he thought to himself that he did not have such strength.
Liu He's heart was also shocked, because he had scanned Jebe's attributes, and knew that this Jebe's force value was almost the same as Huang Zhong's, and when the skills of both sides were blocked, Huang Zhong did not have the strength to shoot through Jebe's feather arrows, and at the same time, he could shoot Jebel without hindrance.
"There's definitely a reason for that." Liu He secretly guessed, and at the same time scanned the attributes of the two again, and this scan suddenly felt extremely happy.
