At this time, Wang Xuance was still discussing the military situation with the generals in the big tent. When I got this reply from King Lahad and opened it, I already knew what it meant; Sui, I felt that things were difficult. So he gave the order to go down, and all the soldiers made more preparations to attack the city tomorrow.

Because Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai were quite familiar with these siege equipment; And the front of this royal city is only about two miles wide, which is not convenient for this army to be fully deployed. In other words, it can only spread out about 5,000 people at most; So, after some discussion, Wang Xuance decided to let the two of them lead the charge, and the other soldiers were behind to support at any time!

In order to reduce casualties, on the first day, they decided to be the first to have a catapult and a nest car as the pioneer. At the same time, in order to facilitate the command, Wang Xuance also sent an order to move the camp forward to a place ten miles away from this royal city and set up camp!

So, after receiving the military order, all the soldiers were ready to go......

It's another sunny morning, with chirping birds, accompanied by an empty mountain stream, with a long echo. The crisp mountains, majestic peaks, accompanied by the fiery morning sun, and the quiet stream seem extremely quiet. But today, after this quiet, there is a contest between life and death!

According to the request of this Wang Xuance, after a full meal. These more than 10,000 troops, not only neatly dressed, but also majesticly along the official road, pushing all kinds of siege equipment, just left the camp and went to the city of this king, ready to have a tough battle!

With these exquisite siege equipment, Wang Xuance, the 11,000 soldiers, was also highly motivated. With a kind of formation that is determined to win, it is pressed like this, and the place where the chalky king city is two hundred steps away!

Every two stone throwers are accompanied by a nest car, forming a combat unit; Orderly distribution, lined up. Looking at these thirty grand wooden instruments, in this era dominated by swords, guns, swords, halberds, it also looks quite spectacular!

And this news was also learned by Kapiva early. However, after a detailed analysis, he still decided to stick to it, and see what you Wang Xuance can do to me!

Therefore, I saw him sitting on the carved sandalwood chair at the head of the city, enjoying the mellow wine and juicy fruits, and admiring the arrival, preparation and formation of Wang Xuance's group of soldiers.

Although before he defended the royal city, he had already learned the power of the nest cart and the catapult through the soldiers who had been scattered before. However, in view of the fact that in these five Indias, cold weapons such as swords, guns, swords, and halberds were kings, they also did not realize for the time being, and could not imagine the consequences of these siege equipment. Therefore, he didn't care about Wang Xuance's methodical preparations; At the same time, coupled with his arrogance, he still let him follow the old path of Kulena, and he is full of this disdain!

I saw these dozens of nest cars, under the pull of the soldiers, all rose to the highest point, looking at this towering and precipitous royal city from afar, it is indeed a strange scenery, majestically guarding the danger of mountains and rivers, and bathing in the first line of the sky.

At this time, Wang Xuance, surrounded by all the soldiers, sat under the banner of the coalition army and watched the city from afar. A spirit of ambition always echoes in his heart!

Seeing that it was already ready, he gave an order, under the specific instructions of Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai; Under the guidance of the observation post and the singing in the nest car; Driven by the meticulous pace of the aim. Stone bullets fell from the sky and went straight to this solid royal city with a masonry structure.

And as they were ready, Kapiva had seen it all. When he saw the small house on the nest car, slowly rising, he was quite curious at first; But when he found that this little house was so much higher than the city wall; Suddenly, an ominous premonition came to my heart.

But seeing that he had a lot of resentment, he said to himself: "Damn, in this way, won't everything in Lao Tzu's city be seen clearly by him?" ”

Although he was not angry, but when he looked at it again, the distance of about 200 steps also made him deeply understand that this is a distance that is difficult for bows and arrows to reach, so he is also quite helpless!

When he found out that a small group of thirty or forty people were all hand-pulled ropes and the like. It is already clear that this should be the legendary stone thrower. Although this stone thrower has a long range, he also knows it, but the lethality is limited, as long as he dodges in the corner of the wall and other dead corners, the stone bullet is also helpless!

Seeing that the other party was ready to stop, he hurried and asked the soldiers to hide more, so when the live bullets fell and smashed all at the city, it was just a "knock knock" sound, destroying some of the basic facilities at the head of the city, and no soldiers died for the time being.

However, the most interesting thing is that in the midst of this stone bomb attack, there was a lookout post in the nest car, who had already spotted a chair on the top of the city, a pot of fine wine, and some fruits, which must have been used by the main general, so he directed the sight to aim at this thing of enjoyment!

As a stone bullet fell, it smashed right in the middle of the table, and then the glass and plate of this fine wine and fruit were messed up and spilled on the ground! This scene also completely angered Kapil, who was temporarily hiding in the dead corner of the city wall!

I saw that he took advantage of Wang Xuance's stone throwing machine, and in the interval of preparation, he poked out his head, helped the helmet that had been crooked, and shouted with laughter: "Come on, there is a kind of come, let you see, Lao Tzu, these soldiers, none of them are injured, they are still standing in a daze, what can you do to me!" ”

Hearing him say this, under Wang Xuance's signal again, one after another, stone bullets, while he was showing off before he finished speaking, smashed down on the city again!

This wave of attacks, Kapiwa, who was suddenly frightened, hurriedly shrank back again and hid in the dead corner of the stone bullet.

But this time, they weren't so lucky. Because as he poked his head out, he showed off to Wang Xuance; The soldiers at the head of the city were also quite happy, and they stood up with him, and laughed at the bottom of the city!

It is precisely because of this first wave of attacks that it has not worked for the time being. The lookout post was also looking for the plane, and when they saw that the enemy had poked their heads out, they immediately gave directions. And Wang Xuance's attack order was also just right.

As a result, this second wave of attacks caused the soldiers at the head of the city to suffer a great loss; With the fall of 20 stone bullets of forty or fifty catties, seven or eight soldiers were already stoned to death on the spot, and dozens of people were seriously injured.

But when they saw the dead, some of them were crushed under the stone bullet, and some of them were killed with their heads broken. With this successive rounds of stone bullet attacks, the head of the city has been stained red with blood, but the city is in order, and there is no casualty at all.

In view of such an unfavorable situation, Kapiwa finally realized the power of this siege machine, and did not dare to do it again, but only ordered the soldiers to hide well and defend it strictly!

Could it be that this offensive and defensive battle continues like this under the attack that one side is hiding and the other side is not very effective? It doesn't seem to be the case......

The editor said: In ancient times, the siege of the city was not blindly charged by soldiers, but relied on advanced equipment to take the lead. Protecting the lives of soldiers is a matter that every general will consider! And we are all misled by the TV series~
