Chapter 322: Cracked, the siege mode of the dragon cannon guards
Shang Cai, the pseudo-capital of Yuan Shu. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yuan Shu was still drunk and dreaming in the palace, and his two major strategists, Yan Xiang and Li Feng, as well as the other three generals, Zhang Xun, Yang Feng and Yuan Yin, had already led the soldiers to deploy on the city wall.
On that day, when all the civil ministers and military generals persuaded the lord Yuan Shu, Li Feng had long expected such a day.
At that time, although the Han world was weak, but the Han Dynasty was panicked for 400 years, how could it be finished after speaking? No, as soon as Yuan Shu usurped the throne and became the emperor, the princes of the world were like cats that smelled fishy, and they all pounced on them one after another.
Yuan Shu in history has an only son, who seems to be called Yuan Yaolai, but in this world, perhaps after the changes in heaven and earth, Yuan Shu has no sons, but a bunch of daughters have been born.
Therefore, Yuan Yin, who has always been regarded as an adopted son, has always subconsciously thought that he is the successor of the Great Liang Empire. Therefore, Yuan Yin is the most active in persuading and guarding Shangcai City.
……
After coming from afar, after Hao Meng took a position, the whole army rested for two hours before giving the order to attack the city.
In the sound of war drums, Hao Meng's Chinese army quickly sent out three troops and horses to surround the other three sides of Shangcai City, and the remaining 20,000 troops were facing the strong attack.
Hao Meng brought only 40,000 soldiers and horses to attack the puppet capital of Yuan Shu, while the elite defenders in the city plus the auxiliary soldiers had 50,000 people.
However, when Hao Meng's army outside the city was in formation, no one would feel that this was Hao Meng's self-determination.
The shield cart stepped on the drums, and under the impetus of groups of soldiers, it slowly approached the city wall; This is used to fend off the arrows of the bed crossbow.
There are so many bed crossbows in Shangcai City, Dian Wei can't perform a single ride to break the city, even if the immeasurable regiment under Hao Meng's command is driven up to set fire, maybe the city wall has not yet exploded, and this military general group will suffer heavy losses under the obscenity of the bed crossbow.
Therefore, if you want to take down Yuan Shu's pseudo-capital in one go, you can only rely on the dragon cannon guards of the personal guard battalion.
The shield cart can still be destroyed by the bed crossbow within 600 steps, but 800 steps away, even if more than ten bed crossbows are concentrated, it will not be able to destroy even one shield car.
What's more, Hao Meng's shield car has only just entered the thousand-step range, as long as it provides cover for the dragon cannon guards.
……
Hao Meng's siege process, after performing in Jiyin City, as long as there are no blind princes in the world, they will gather the dog-headed military advisors under their command to study countermeasures.
This siege mode is currently incomprehensible, but after thinking about it for a few days, Li Feng and Yan Xiang have also come up with several ways to deal with it.
The shield cart had just arrived at about 950 paces, and before the dragon cannon guards behind the shield cart had time to exert their might, there was a thunderclap sound from the bed crossbows on the city wall, and the bed crossbows took the lead.
It is true that the crossbow spear fired from the bed crossbow alone could not destroy a shield cart nine hundred paces away. However, Hao Meng's shield carts seemed to be made of giant wood, and it only took a single fire to burn them to ashes.
Perhaps, if you are lucky, you can burn to death a few dragon cannon guards who retreat in time behind the shield cart, it won't be too perfect.
This was the first coping method that Yan Xiang and Li Feng came up with.
I saw that the ballista guns carried a number of cowhide water bladders, and when the ballista "bang" shot on the shield car, these water bladders burst with it, and then the liquid inside flew a layer on the shield car.
Then, tongues of fire rose from the soles of his feet.
These tongues of fire are all pillars of fire formed by the spell [Red Flame Burning]. It's just that a single [Red Flame Burn] doesn't have much lethality against ordinary soldiers, and it is even more helpless against the sixteenth-level dragon cannon guards.
However, these flames had just ignited the liquid on the shield cart, and then, the shield cart instantly became a huge torch.
It was clear that the water bladders that came with the ballista were filled with bags of fire oil.
……
In less than half a moment, the shield cars that had just advanced to the position became torches, which made Hao Meng refresh his cognition.
The dragon cannon guards who were hiding behind the shield cart took the opportunity to fire a round of dragon cannons when the fire broke out. It's a pity that there was no calibrated launch, and the shells either flew high or low, and there were only five shells that hit the city walls.
Above the solidity of Caicheng, five cannonballs only knocked out a few battlements of the city wall. If you want to blast Shangcai City out of a gap, you have to gather a few rounds of fire from the twenty dragon cannon guards.
It's just that when the shield cart caught fire, most of these dragon cannon guards also set themselves on fire - when the water bladder burst, a little fire oil was also splashed on the dragon cannon guards.
Hao Meng's main formation, which was a few hundred steps behind the shield car, was stunned for a moment when he watched the fire start, and no one thought that Hao Meng's siege mode could actually be cracked like this.
Hao Meng was also stunned for a moment, and soon waved his hand and threw a spell over, and a spring of water rushed up from the ground, and after being three or five feet high, it was like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers, and it became raindrops that fell, just like those dragon cannon guards who were covered in fire.
As for the shield car, there is no need to save it.
……
With a "snort", Zhou Yu, who was not detained with him, laughed instantly, ignoring the hot hostile eyes around him.
"Why, with such a small fire attack, Hao Junhou was stumped?"
After being detained for so long, how could Zhou Yu not have resentment, such a good opportunity to ridicule, Zhou Yu naturally would not miss it, he also grasped it accurately, Hao Meng seemed to want to recruit him Zhou Yu, as long as it was not excessive, Hao Meng would not kill him at present.
Hao Meng smiled indifferently: "The so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and to deal with the fire attack, they will naturally have to use water to block it." ”
"Actually, as long as you take a hundred and ten steps behind these shield carts and prepare a few generals with water spells, you can easily crack it."
Hearing this, Zhou Yu paused.
Indeed, as long as you drench these shield carts with water-based spells before and after those crossbow guns are fired, you naturally don't have to worry about fire attacks. The oil of this era has not yet reached the point where it can burn in water!
Of course, Hao Meng can actually use the [Wind and Cloud Change] military skill. It's just that under the heavy rain, the difficulty of attacking the city will also increase, so Hao Meng didn't use this spell.
Zhou Yu's eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "Junhou's idea is good, but it's a pity that he can't use it to break the city today." After these shield carts are burned, it seems that it will take three to five days to build so many more ones, right? ”
"In the past few days, other princes may also be on Cai Cheng, right?"
For Zhou Yu's ridicule, Hao Meng didn't care at all. "Zhou Lang knows that Ben Hou wants to break the city, and there are many ways, but he doesn't just rely on the dragon cannon guards!"
After that, Hao Meng replaced the [Millennium Black Steel] in the inventory and replaced it with a new prop, and the long sword in his hand was also replaced with a feather fan.
