Chapter 30: Let's Fight
When the war was approaching and the future was uncertain, the people of Heyang had panicked and feared, but when everything was irreparable and the mortal situation had been achieved, they calmed down.
Death is a common thing, and if you have a home, you can not be afraid.
I'm not even afraid of death, what else can make it difficult for them?
"Hah! Ha! Ha! Ha! Tang Ge smiled and said, "Sing!" Sing it!! This will be your last elegy!! ”
Qingshan looked at the crazy Tang Ge worriedly. He is the only member of Banpo Dolphin's tribe who does not wear a mask, because he does not need to be brave, he just needs to be calm.
"Catapult forward unfolding! One echelon advancement! Tang Ge sat on the mahogany seat, and coldly gave the first battle order when the enemy's fighting spirit was at its peak.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Knock ......"
The heavy sound of war drums, secretly combined with the melody of the heartbeat, spread throughout the four fields.
With the sound of drums, five catapults were pushed to the front of the main battlefield, the wheels were removed, the counterweights were loaded, the nooses were linked, and everything was in order.
On the way to prepare the catapult, another slave holding a huge square shield stepped out with the sound of the drum, step by step in array. The large shield is wide and high, the surface is gold, the middle is wood, the back is inlaid with leather, one person raises the shield, can accommodate two people to hide. This kind of composite shield, whether it is a gold weapon or a blunt weapon, is difficult to break through the defense.
Before the shields were resisted to the position, the slave who raised the shield struck down hard, and the sharp thorns under the shield were deeply inserted into the earth, and then the shield was tilted back slightly, and the shoulders were steady, and in the blink of an eye, a solid shield wall was erected. Behind the shield wall, there were spearmen and archers, ready to resist the counterattack of the Heyang tribe.
Hearing the sound of war drums, a clansman next to Kuroko asked in a low voice, "Great Chief, do we want to rush forward now?" The Heyang tribe is definitely not the opponent of Banpo Dolphin, if we go now, maybe we can save them. ”
Heizi sneered: "The life and death of the Heyang tribe is our egg business!" Wait! When Heyang fights the Banpo dolphin almost, Hei Ye will teach them how to behave. Now, let's just watch the excitement here. ”
Kuroko's plan is very good, but the reality is always undesirable.
In the Banpo dolphin camp, Tang Ge rubbed the goldfish pendant and sneered: "It seems that the grass Jiao is not going to come out." Want to rely on the terrain to drain our forces? How naïve! The order goes down, and as soon as the catapult is deployed, the projection is carried out! ”
Counterweight throwing cable lever trebuchet, the lever is short in front and long in the back, there is a counterweight basket in front, up to several tons after loading heavy objects, the throwing arm behind the lever links the piso and the throwing pocket with an extension cord, the piso links the winch, the winch has a copper ratchet and pawls, several people work together to rotate the winch, the winch pulls the throwing arm to descend, and the winch rotates every grid, and the pawl will automatically lock the ratchet to prevent sliding.
When the throwing arm is reduced to a minimum, the throwing arm is loaded with stone bullets or gravel in the throwing pocket, the leather rope is cut or the bolt is opened, and the throwing arm is quickly raised under the drive of the counterweight box in front of it, and the throwing can be completed. Theoretically, this trebuchet can throw dozens of pounds of stones out for nearly 500 meters!
The Banpo Dolphin's trebuchet does not need such a large range, it only needs to throw stones a hundred to two hundred meters, which is enough for the Heyang tribe to drink a pot.
"What if a rat hides in a hole? Just light a cigarette and smoke him out! Tang Ge laughed strangely.
With Tang Ge's laughter, five catapults threw stone projectiles of different weights into the air with a creaking sound for test firing.
The two stone bullets were too light and too slow, and they were directly hit to the ground, while the other three stone bullets whistled and landed in the Heyang tribe.
Dozens of pounds of stone bullets, under the action of trebuchets, the power is amazing, whether it is a civil structure, or a house built of stones, under the huge momentum of the stone bullet, it is like paper paste, and it is easily smashed out of a huge hole, and even a stone bullet has achieved the result of the collapse of the house. Those Heyang soldiers who were hiding in front of the house and behind the house originally thought that they were very safe, but when the war song sounded, there were even people who secretly hated that they could not be placed on the front line, but they couldn't imagine that they were the first to die in battle. When the huge stone pierced through the wall with its momentum, the unlucky few unlucky people hiding behind the wall didn't even have time to react, so they went to meet their ancestors, and there were more than a dozen people injured by the splattering of wood chips!
In a single round of test firing, the small three stone bullets hit the Heyang tribe with screams and wails.
"Haha! Grandchildren of Ha Duong! You just wait to be blown into slag by the master! Tang Ge climbed onto the mahogany seat, raised his sword, and shouted wildly.
In the Niutou tribe camp, Kuroko's mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it for a long time. He suddenly felt that his intention to make a profit was too naïve, perhaps, he should have joined forces with Heyang to fight against Banpo Dolphin from the beginning, and only in this way could it be possible to avoid this terrifying weapon from falling on his head in the near future.
After the test firing was completed, the slingers were in full swing to reload and throw their shells again, and not long after, five more stone shells were lifted into the air.
The trebuchet does not have an accurate head, nor does it need an accurate head, it only needs to control the distance and bombard without brains.
This time, the stone bullet was still in the air, and the warriors of the Heyang tribe were already in chaos. Maybe these soldiers are not afraid of death, but they don't want to die in vain, and if they are smashed into flesh without even touching the enemy's edge, it will be too wretched. But even though they frantically dodged, there were still stone bullets that caused them casualties, and even one stone bullet jumped and jumped, killing three people in a string.
"Stupid! I won't even look at the ballistics! Playing with bows and arrows for so many years! Tang Ge sneered disdainfully.
If these five trebuchets are allowed to keep firing, it is estimated that when the trebuchets are used up, they will not be able to cause too much damage to the warriors of the Heyang tribe. But what is terrible about trebuchets is not their lethality, but their deterrent power that can destroy cities.
In this primitive era when everyone relied on polished stone tools to survive, anyone who faced this situation of house collapse would naturally have a sense of irresistibility. It can be said that this kind of large-scale siege equipment can be deservedly called the god of war in today's era.
The trebuchet, which had a low rate of fire, methodically threw stone projectiles at the Heyang tribe, and in the crunching friction sound, Tang Ge stood on the seat, stretched his neck and scolded: "Grass Jiao!" Washed up the ass and waited! Wait for the master to demolish your house! Let's get your dog's head! ”
Feeling Tang Ge's madness, Adam was also furious, roaring up to the sky, with high fighting spirit, but unfortunately a leather rope around his neck trapped him to death, and he could only keep turning around to vent the irritability in his heart.
"The young witch is crazy enough, and he must not be stimulated by any more!" Aoyama, who was holding Piso, thought in his heart.
