Chapter 64: The Wood Beasts Attack the City

In the early morning, the vast mountains are wrapped in a morning light, Yique Pass, Wei Yue is patrolling the city wall with a team of men and horses, although Liu Bei's army was frustrated yesterday, but it must not be taken lightly, outside Yique Pass, all the gravel and mounds within a distance of 100 zhang have been bulldozed, in order to prevent the enemy who is attacking the city from having any chance to take advantage of the road.

"General, look." A partial general suddenly pointed to the city with a look of surprise and said, "What is that?" ā€

When Wei Yue heard this, he hurriedly climbed the female wall and looked down the city, but saw that outside Yique Pass, on the empty ground, a bunch of wooden monsters suddenly came, and the huge shell made it impossible to see the scene under the wooden shell at all, but judging from the walking legs, there were people below, just looking at it from the city tower, just like a giant beetle moving one by one, moving forward quickly, and the giant beetle should be a sharpened wooden stake protruding from the position of its mouth.

Wei Yue passed through the clairvoyant mirror and saw that a small hole had been dug in front of the wooden shell, which was not big, but there were clusters of cold arrows inside.

In the thin morning light, hundreds of these wooden husks were moving slowly, and it looked like a swarm of giant beetles were charging at Yique Pass.

"Quick, go and inform the general, the archers are ready!" Wei Yue didn't know what this thing was, but it didn't prevent him from guessing, the shell that looked very thick was probably made to defend against bows and arrows, and the wooden stakes in front of it could attack the city and charge into battle, and there was also the small hole, through which the people inside could shoot the enemy.

"Stones, rolling logs, bring them all up for me!" A change of order was sent to inform Pang De and Lu Bu, and at the same time, all kinds of city defense equipment that had been prepared were being sent to the city wall battlements in a steady stream.

In order to deal with Lu Bu's strong bow and crossbow, these princes' coalition forces really took great pains.

In the distance, Liu Bei's large number of soldiers and horses were already in sight, Wei Yue looked over with a clairvoyant mirror, and saw that in the distance, the mighty men and horses pushing crossbow carts, ladders, and various siege equipment were moving towards this side, and stopped less than a mile away from the battlefield to watch these wooden shells attacking the city.

In Yique Pass, Lu Bu looked around the ballista, turned his head to look at Ma Jundao, and said, "How is it?" ā€

"My lord is right." Ma Jun patted the ballista, compared to other ballistas, it was the lightest one burned, and it also largely preserved many of the original appearance of the ballista, Ma Jun, as a top craftsman, was able to deduce some of its performance, shook his head and sighed: "But I have underestimated the world, but this crossbow seems to have not been developed perfectly, otherwise, General Pang De would be in danger yesterday." ā€

"Is it helpful for our military industry?" Lu Bu said curiously.

"Yes, and it's big!" Ma Jun nodded: "For a long time, our army's crossbow can only fire five arrows in a row, and this crossbow car has perfectly solved this problem from the other direction, as long as the time is enough, with the technology that our army has formed, we can make a better repeating crossbow on the basis of the God of War crossbow, and the range is definitely more than 100 steps!" ā€

The range of the God of War crossbow is 400 steps, but because it is too laborious to reload, and it is a single shot, it is not as good as a broken crossbow, so it is now on the verge of elimination.

"It would be nice to get a more complete ballista, though." Ma Jun said with a smile: "With this car alone, some things are difficult to restore." ā€

"It's not difficult, just think of a way." Lu Bu nodded and turned his head to look at Pound.

"Rest assured, the last general will definitely do his best!" Pound arched.

"Report~" A junior colonel rushed in and shouted to Lu Bu and Pang De: "Lord, General Pang, the Jingzhou army has begun to attack the city." ā€

"So fast?" Lu Bu and Pang De frowned, it stands to reason that they only suffered a defeat yesterday, which must have an impact on Liu Beijun's morale, according to Liu Beijun's performance yesterday, Liu Beijun's quality is obviously not as good as Cao Jun's elite.

"It seems that Liu Bei has other new gadgets in his hands." Lu Bu smiled: "Master Ma, follow me to the city to have a look." ā€

"Yes!" Ma Jun arched his hand.

When Lu Bu and the others came to the city wall, those wooden beasts had already rushed to the city wall, and the sharp arrows kept shooting down, but they were all blocked by the turtle shell-like thing, and from the city wall, it looked like a huge hedgehog.

"What is this?" Pang De looked at the wooden beast that had no reaction under the cover of the rain of arrows in amazement, and frowned.

It's not hard to guess!

Lu Bu looked at these so-called wooden beasts and frowned, this thing is not too high-tech, it is equivalent to creating a mobile wooden house for people, which can well avoid the arrow rain of Lu Bu's army, someone threw the fire oil tank from the city wall and ignited it, but the effect is not too good, even if the wooden armor of the distinguished guest is ignited, because the wooden armor is too thick, for a while, the people inside are not in a big problem, and they are quite scattered, many wooden beasts also have siege ladders under them, and when they arrive under the city wall, the arrow rain is not easy to cover, Quickly dismantle the siege ladder and set it up on the city wall to begin the siege.

Even if it was a stone or a rolling log, because it was a dozen people supporting the wooden shell together, the huge force could not destroy the wooden beast immediately.

"Lord, under the wooden armor, I'm afraid there is something to support the wooden armor, not manpower!" Ma Jun stood beside Lu Bu and pointed to a wooden armor road that was storming the city gate.

"Lord, if this continues, the city gate will be blasted open by them sooner or later, and the moat will not be able to stop these wooden beasts at all!" Pound frowned.

The gates of Yique Pass were strong enough, but they could not withstand such continuous bombardment.

"Stop shooting." Lu Bu waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to stop shooting arrows, those wooden armor was almost full of knowledge, and now continuing to shoot is tantamount to wasting arrows, although the Jingzhou army continues to rush up through the siege ladder, but the shooting sound battalion soldiers at the head of the city are enough to deal with these Jingzhou troops who rushed up, and they can't attack the city wall for a while.

"Tell someone to throw the thistle down to me." Looking at the pair of legs exposed on the outside of the wooden armor, but with the protection of the wooden armor, it is difficult for the arrows to be accurately shot, even if there are occasional, hundreds of wooden beasts have tens of thousands of legs, and more than ten or twenty are shot down It has nothing to do with the overall situation.

"Yes!" Pound's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly figured out the key to it, and hurriedly ordered someone to move out the thistle, which was originally used to delay the enemy's movements, but it was appropriate at this moment.

Soon, hundreds of soldiers came up with large boxes, opened the boxes, and without looking closely, they directly poured the thistles in the boxes under the city wall.

Those thistles landed on the wooden armor and bounced down directly, rolled on the ground twice and immediately nailed to the ground, the Jingzhou soldiers in the wooden armor were limited by their line of sight, they couldn't see it at all, and stepped on it without knowing it, and the sharp thorns directly penetrated the surface of the feet, and the Jingzhou soldiers who were caught off guard rolled up in pain holding their feet, breaking away from the protection of the wooden beast.

"Shoot the arrows!" Almost instantly, these warriors, who had broken away from beneath the wooden armor, were engulfed in countless arrows.

"Lao Xiong, take your people down, put these wooden armor gathered at the gate of the city for me, remember, cut off the legs first!" Lu Bu turned his head and looked at the majestic seaway.

"Whoa!" Xiong Kuohai excitedly led the hussar battalion down the city wall.

"Open the gates!" Xiong Kuohai waved his hand, Zhou Cang and Jiang Jian with two teams of hussar camps on both sides of the city gate, with Xiong Kuohai's order, the city gate was slowly opened, and the front of the wooden armor that was excitedly impacting the city gate suddenly emptied, and rushed directly into the city gate by inertia.

Seeing that the warrior in the last wooden armor wanted to block the middle of the city gate to prevent the city gate from closing, Xiong Kuohai had already grabbed the edge of the wooden armor and sneered: "Come in and give it to me!" ā€

The muscles of his left arm were like a small mountain bag, and there were more than a dozen Jingzhou soldiers under the huge wooden armor, but they were dragged in by the majestic sea people with the wooden armor.

"Close the door!" Without waiting for the Jingzhou soldiers who found the troops around to react and rush to the city, Xiong Kuohai waved his hand, and the two hussar battalion soldiers quickly closed the city gate, and six or seven wooden beasts did not have time to react in the city gate, and the surrounding hussar battalion soldiers had already surrounded them with bad intentions, and a short body, the horse sword in his hand was directly aimed at the pair of double people under the wooden armor and slashed over, and in an instant, in the terrible screams, countless Jingzhou soldiers who lost their legs fell to the ground, and the wails rang out.

"Kill!"

Xiong Kuohai's eyes sharpened, and his face flashed with a hideous fierce light.

The cold slashing sword ruthlessly slashed at those screaming Jingzhou soldiers, and the terrible screams and wails quickly disappeared.

"Drag these rotten logs to the back for me, and get ready to open the city!" Hearing the dull crash outside the city gate again, the majestic sea snorted coldly, and the wooden beasts were dragged away, and the city gate was opened again.

"Kill!"

Unlike the last unprepared, this time, as the city gate was opened, those warriors hiding under the wooden beast directly brandished their weapons and killed in, and in the hole at the front of the wooden beast, clusters of arrows shot out directly, and several hussar guards who were caught off guard fell to the ground with arrows!

"Kill me!" Xiong Kuohai shouted, a dozen soldiers were directly thrown away by the violent force with a cooked copper stick in his hand, dozens of hussar guards rushed up, the solid armor was desperate, the swords and guns of the Jingzhou soldiers could not break through the defense of the hussar battalion armor at all, and then they were divided by the cold horse chopping sword of the hussar battalion soldiers, and the bloody breath spread, and more Jingzhou soldiers poured in from outside.

"Prepare for the crossbow!" Seeing this, the vast sea did not surprise and rejoice, and did not let the soldiers take charge of the city gates, and this situation of a large number of enemy troops pouring in within a narrow range was just able to increase the power of the crossbow to the maximum.

"Put!"

The hussar battalion soldiers quickly lined up, five people in a row, and launched the crossbow arrows in their hands, but unfortunately, because they were not prepared in advance, so each person only had a crossbow box, and after shooting, they were going to start hand-to-hand combat, but unfortunately the Jingzhou army was not as strong as imagined, and after seeing the dead bodies all over the ground in the city gate hole, a large number of Jingzhou troops began to flee.

"Bad luck!" The majestic sea is still unfinished dragging the wooden beasts that stop at the gate of the city in, and re-closing the city gate, in the distance, Liu Bei began to sing gold, and rows of wooden beasts protected the warriors and began to retreat. (To be continued.) )
