The deterrent power of catapults is obvious.

In fact, many of the soldiers in the city did not know what catapults were, because in recent wars, catapults were rarely used.

It can be said that none of the sergeants on both sides have really seen catapults, and even if they do, they only hear legends.

Although catapults were used in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, they were more widely used in wars during the Seven Kingdoms Struggle. At that time, the state of Chu secretly made a large number of catapults, and defeated the 200,000 Qin troops in one fell swoop, until later, the Qin emperor used 600,000 troops to destroy the state of Chu.

However, the catapult system is not suitable and difficult to carry, so in the middle and late Han Dynasty, especially in the relatively stable Central Plains, the use of catapults has rarely been seen.

Therefore, now in the early period of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, the world's heroes have just supported their own troops, and no one has thought of creating this kind of catapult for the time being. Therefore, including the original Han army, there are not many people who have really seen catapults.

At present, no one in the world can have such a stable territory and engage in the development and manufacturing of catapults. There are accounts that only Cao Cao later used a catapult, and it is said that it was made according to the improvement of Ma Jun, a famous mechanical inventor during the Three Kingdoms period.

Therefore, so far, no one in the world except Liu Yi has this kind of catapult.

Looking at the stones that can only be pushed out by three or hundreds of people, the feeling of being thick and solid, and the piercing creaking sounds, make everyone who sees it feel stunned for a while.

"Thunderbolt?" Li Ru is also a well-informed person, he stared at it, couldn't help but his lips trembled, and said in disbelief: "How is it possible?" How could Lewy have a Thunderbolt? Luoyang didn't, he, where did he get it? ”

In ancient times, when a catapult fired a stone projectile, it would make a loud noise, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Therefore, the ancients did not call it a catapult but a thunderbolt.

"It's Mr. Li Ru on the wall, right? Mr. Li Ru, you are also a person who reads poetry and books, and you should know the situation when you know it. can distinguish between right and wrong, what kind of person Dong Zhuo is, you should know best in your heart, Dong Sanmei knows how to kill relatives in righteousness, regardless of Dong Zhuo is his biological father, he also abandoned angrily, in order to kill Dong Zhuo, the evil thief. She sent newspapers thousands of miles away, so that a certain could save the capital Luoyang in time, so that the emperors of the past dynasties spent countless efforts, and the people paid countless blood and sweat to build the magnificent palace was not burned. Do you still want to follow Dong Zhuo forever, act for the tiger, and help the abuse? "Levi is sharp-eyed. At a glance, he saw Li Ru on the head of the city, and shouted at him: "Now, Liu Mou will give you one last chance, open the city gate and surrender, it's not too late, after a breath, if you don't surrender, don't blame you for giving the order to attack the city." ”

"Liu Yi, don't think that you can capture Hongnong City with just a few thunderbolts, and your total strength is only about 100,000. Our army defending the city also has more than 100,000 and 200,000 people, since ancient times, the besieging side has to be many times or even more than ten times stronger than the defending side to be able to capture the next city, do you dare to storm it? Come on! Li Dao suddenly appeared in the city tower. shouted angrily.

He and Liu Yi are really endless, and they have already made up their minds to deal with Liu Yi to the end.

"Humph! Then there is nothing to say. Liu Yi turned his head and said to Sergeant Dong Zhuo at the head of the city: "What about you? Or are you stubborn to the end? I know, most of you are Hongnong people, you may not be willing to follow Dong Zhuo, the traitor, now Dong Zhuo's army, you are also compelled, if you have the heart to surrender, when we attack the city for a while, you will dodge aside, and wait for my sergeant to climb the city wall, you can fight back. ”

Dong Zhuojun's heart was unstable, and many sergeants had already thought of surrendering. Liu Yi said it so clearly, which immediately caused a commotion among some sergeants. Of course, it was Dong Zhuo's elite soldiers who were even more nervous, and they all couldn't help but stare at the recruits who assisted in defending the city with hatred, and they unnaturally developed a wary mentality towards the recruits.

"You dare? Who dares to oppose the water, don't blame Lao Tzu's knife and gun for not recognizing people! Li Dao shouted at the new army even more threateningly.

The catapult was too cumbersome, and Gan Ning could only transport more than ten or eighteen vehicles this time.

Each one took hundreds of sergeants to pull it, and it slowly pulled it to the front of the army.

On the other side, the 10,000 cavalry led by Yan Liang and the trapped sergeants led by Dian Wei also advanced slowly, protecting more than a dozen catapults.

If Dong Zhuojun, who was defending the city, would have the courage to lead the cavalry to rush out and kill for a while before the catapult began to be ready to launch, and desperately rushed to the catapult, or the catapult could be burned, but under the current situation, Liu Yi's army was in formation, and there were cavalry and trapped sergeants to protect it, and if they wanted to come out to attack, it would only be a dead end.

At this time, even if Lu Bu was here, he didn't dare to lead the army out of the city to attack. Look at Liu Yi, Tai Shici, Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Huang Xu and other generals, let me ask Dong Zhuo if there is still an enemy general?

The catapult that has been researched and improved may not be as heavy as the legendary stone projectile, but the distance it throws is definitely farther than the legendary catapult, and much longer than the distance of the arrow.

After a while, the catapult was in place, and then the sergeant got busy, fixed the catapult, pulled the lever, and loaded the stone projectile.

The soldiers in the city, at this moment, they really didn't know what to do, one by one they looked at the catapults under the city in front of them with pale faces, as if waiting for the judgment of fate, dumbfounded, and their hearts were so solemn that even their hands and feet seemed to be difficult to move.

At this moment, Li Ru's heart was even more panicked, and he kept thinking about this impossible, impossible, how could Liu Yi have a thunderbolt?

"Lord, get ready!" Gan Ning jumped off his horse and walked to the side of a catapult, ready to give the order to launch.

If it was the kind of catapult that could be fired by a single person, Gan Ning might have to go into battle to fire the stone projectile himself. But with this kind of giant catapult, he can't help much, and he can't pull the lever alone.

But this did not prevent him from calling the order, and he, who knew the power of these catapults best, now wanted to see the horror of the big stone bullet in Dong Zhuo's army.

"Li, Li Dao, do you think these thunderbolts of Liu and Liu Yi are useful? Our city is high and the walls are thick, so it shouldn't be able to threaten us," Li Ru couldn't help but said to Li Dao with his legs trembling a little.

Li Dao is actually panicking now, Li Ru, a literati, has only heard of the power of the thunderbolt, but he has really seen it. It's just that it was in a small border town, and there were trebuchets left over from the past on the city walls, just. It's a bit dilapidated, usually just a decoration, once, the aliens attacked the city, he participated in the defense of the city, and saw that the aliens were attacking urgently, and the defenders at that time. Ordered the sergeant to use the catapult to launch stone projectiles to attack the alien army under the city, a stone bullet was launched, if the stone bullet was not smashed, the stone bullet would rush out of a certain distance, and the track that rushed out was an invincible blood road, and all the creatures in the trajectory were smashed into pieces. Falling to the ground. Then around the stone bullet, dozens of sergeants will be killed. It was the only time in his life that he had seen the power of a catapult. Because of its age, the catapult was destroyed after only a few bullets, but in the end, it was the power of the catapult that forcibly shocked the alien army and made them flee in panic.

Therefore, Li Dao's mouth was hard, but he was terribly scared in his heart.

He pretended to be calm and said: "Mr. Li Ru, our city wall is so high, it's hard to say whether their thunderbolt can shoot stones into the city, let's go into the city tower and discuss how to resist Liu Yi's attack." ”

"Okay." Li Ru hurriedly said, turned around and got into the city tower.

Now, he just wanted to find an excuse to stay away from the city walls, lest he be stoned to death by the catapult.

At the same time that Li Dao and Li Ru entered the city tower, Liu Yi also issued the order to launch.

"Put!"

Gan Ning roared.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of loud lever swings. Whew

More than ten large stone bullets were suddenly thrown into the air, and the stone bullets formed a parabola in the air, and quickly fell in the direction of the main city tower.

The boulder made a whining sound in the air that broke the air, and the thick and powerful momentum made people look shocking.

Woo

Woo

Bumper bumper

The stone projectile fell, slamming into the wall with a loud bang.

Eighteen large stone bullets, most of which hit the city wall, and every time they hit, the entire city wall seemed to be violently shaken.

Sergeant Dong Zhuo at the head of the city only felt that his heart had been hit by a heavy object, and his whole body was jumping and jumping.

In addition, there was a stone bullet that crossed the city wall and directly hit the bungalows in the city, and there was a loud rumbling noise, and a stone bullet actually directly destroyed some of the bungalows in the city.

Only three stone projectiles fell on the top of the city.

However, the deterrent effect of the three stone bullets on Dong Zhuojun cannot be described in words.

One of them was shot down directly by rubbing the wall battlement, and with a bang, the wall battlement was directly destroyed, and among the rubble flying, Dong Zhuojun in the wall battlement, more than ten people were directly shaken away. The huge shock wave shook them to death in the process of shaking them away, and unfortunately they were directly hit and turned into a piece of flesh.

"Ahh

The sergeant was hit by the rubble and fell to the ground screaming in horror.

The other one hit the wall battlement, the stone bullet fell violently, and the rolling stone broke through the wall battlement on the other side, and the unlucky Dong Zhuojun also had seven or eight people killed by this bullet.

In order to prevent Liu Yi's army from forcibly attacking the city, they arranged enough troops on the wall, basically, each person was responsible for the defense of one or two wall battlements.

In this way, as long as a stone bullet falls on the city, it will definitely kill a lot of Dong Zhuo's thieves.

The last stone bullet hit the castle tower directly, and directly penetrated the stone wall of the castle tower, and fell into the council chamber inside.

At this moment, Li Ru and Li Wei, who had just entered the city tower, were so shocked that their legs weakened, and they almost fell to the ground without both of them falling soft.

The power of this thunderbolt is so terrifying that it can directly break through the stone wall of the castle tower. Thankfully, it didn't hit them directly, otherwise, they would have been dead by now.

But it was only one round of attacks, and the defenders on the walls were shaken to pieces.

"Put it again!" Gan Ning didn't seem to be satisfied with the catapult's criteria, and shouted loudly with red eyes.

The sound of rattling levers, the shouts of sergeants, and the cheers of the more than 100,000 sergeants watching the battle when they saw the ferocious power of the stone bullets hitting the wall.

For a time, the entire battlefield was in a sensation.

Boom Boom!

The catapult seemed to be tirelessly bombarding Hongnong City, and one group of sergeants pulling the catapult levers were tired, so they changed to another group, anyway. Eighteen catapults never stopped bombarding Hongnong City.

The exterior of the city wall has been bombarded like a hornet's nest, and although it has not been destroyed for the time being, it looks a little like it is about to crumble.

The power of great power. Dong Zhuojun, who was defending the city, was exhausted, and everyone was frightened.

Now, they are completely passively beaten, standing on the head of the city as rakes.

Although the stone bullet of the catapult was limited, the power of each stone bullet that hit the head of the city made Dong Zhuojun frightened.

If it weren't for Dong Zhuo's elite soldiers watching, if someone dared to retreat from the city wall. If they were to be killed on the spot, I am afraid that most of the soldiers would have to flee from the stone wall, lest they face the fate of being crushed.

Li Ru and other generals, seeing Liu Yi's endless firing of stone bullets, they did not dare to leave the city wall to hide, for fear that as soon as they left, the sergeants at the head of the city would definitely flee with them, and there was no one to guard the city wall. Once Liu Yijun kills them, they will be in danger. So, they can only bite the bullet. The sergeants hiding in the city tower and supervising the bombardment should not relax their vigilance, once they found out that Liu Yi's army was attacking the city, they would block it in time to prevent Liu Yi's army from killing on the city wall.

After an hour of direct bombardment, it is not known how many stone projectiles were fired, and among them, five catapults were destroyed because they could not withstand the intensity of continuous operation.

With a bang, the city wall finally collapsed, although not all of it, but it fell into the next section. The ten-zhang high city wall is like a tooth breaking, and the collapsed opening is still a few zhang high from the ground, but the city wall is divided into two sections, and the top is at least more than ten zhang away. In other words, the defenders on the wall were separated on both sides.

Until now, Liu Yi has not injured a single soldier in this regard, but the defenders who have bombarded Dong Zhuo have suffered many casualties, and the most important thing is to beat their courage over.

The collapsed and broken city wall was still dusty.

Lewi knew it was time.

"Stop the bombardment, beat the drums! Siege Dead! ”

Liu Yi shouted, and at the same time said to Tai Shici and other generals: "Ziyi, Dian Wei, you go from the broken wall to one side, and Xu Zhu attacks and kills the other side, Wen Chou and Shen Yong together, and after we occupy the city on both sides, you go directly into the city and lead the army into the city." ”

"Yes!"

From the general orders.

"Sister Qing, let's go!" Liu Yi slapped the horse and rushed out of the formation directly.

At the same time, the dead soldiers who had already prepared for the siege, pushing the carts, or the ladders, or carrying a large bundle of ropes, shouted and attacked the city wall like a tide.

Liu Yi and Tai Shici, the two snow-white war horses were very eye-catching, and the two white shadows rushed into the billowing smoke and dust under the collapsed city wall at once.

Before Hongnong City, there was also a moat and many traps, but they had already been filled. Therefore, at this moment, you can rush all the way to the edge of the walled city.

Tai Shi Ci picked up his bow and arrows while riding his horse, and the long arrows were sent out one after another, just like when Zhao Yun attacked Montenegro, he directly shot a foothold like a ladder on the city wall with arrows.

Liu Yi was not good at archery, but he was a little faster than Tai Shi Ci who was going to shoot arrows, and he jumped directly from the arrow shaft that Tai Shi Ci shot on the city wall and jumped on the gap in the wall.

From the ground to the gap, a few zhang high, in fact, is more than ten meters high, up to the gap, the city wall on both sides collapsed, not straight collapsed, but formed a depression arc shape.

Therefore, Liu Yi didn't want to think about it, and rushed directly to the side of the city tower.

The first wave of attack must be a first-class master.

Therefore, Liu Yi named several generals.

Immediately afterwards, Tai Shici, Dian Wei, Xu Zhu, Yuan Qing and others also jumped up one after another.

To Liu Yi's surprise, Shi Ah also brought their senior brothers here, these assassins were really lurking deeply, and Liu Yi didn't know that they had come from Dongting Lake. It is estimated that he came with Gan Ning.

The city wall collapsed for a while, and Li Ru and Li Wei, who were hiding in the city tower, were immediately awakened by the vibration of the city wall, and they rushed out of the city tower regardless of it, shouting loudly to the defenders who were crawling on the ground in a panic: "Not good! Lewis is going to attack the city, hurry! Get ready for battle! ”

Li Dao urged his own soldiers to rush to the broken place of the city wall, he thought, he must defend it before Liu Yi's army attacked from the gap in the broken city wall, otherwise, after being attacked by Liu Yi, it will be troublesome, I am afraid that Hongnong City will not be able to defend it.

However, he reacted quickly, but Liu Yi was not slow, and Liu Yi and the others had already advanced beyond the range of their arrows, only a few hundred steps.

Therefore, when Li Dao led hundreds of sergeants to the place where the break was broken, Liu Yi had already flown up and killed.

"Haha! Li Dao! We meet again. With a wave of Liu Yi's dragon spear, a fierce murderous aura rushed out, knocking several Dong Zhuo soldiers in front of him away, and steadily let him go at the head of the city, shouting at Li Dao, who was in a panic.

"Leugain!" Li Wei paused suddenly, at this moment, he wanted to die, but he didn't expect that Liu Yi would actually go to the city to attack and kill in person.

He turned his head to look at the battlefield below, and saw the endless army rushing madly, which made him feel an irresistible sense of pressure.

"Don't panic! Above! Kill Leo and we'll win! Li Dao is also worthy of being a fierce general who has been fighting for many years, gritting his teeth and rushing to kill Liu Yi, and his sergeants also attacked Liu Yi at the same time, trying to force Liu Yi down.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! At this time, Li Ru was also in front of the city tower, and ordered his soldiers to release arrows or throw large stones and sassalwoods downward.

The tragic siege battle officially began.
