"Knock Knock Knock !!"

The dull beat of drums sounded from three miles away. Then, like a tidal wave, the soldiers of the cross-toes rushed forward with carts, bows, and shields, ready to cross the moat.

The moat of Qinzhou City is made by using the mainstream of the Qinjiang River and guiding it by the trend. The Qinjiang River bypasses the city of Qinzhou from the moat and then flows into the sea. Therefore, the moat of Qinzhou City is not only abundant in water, but also not easy to be blocked by enemy troops, which is a natural line of defense.

The city of Qinzhou was built around a moat, which can be regarded as a guide due to the situation. But any natural risk, as long as you are careful, there is nothing that cannot be passed. The Jiaozhi people learned the tactics of the Central Plains again, and had long understood the method of using ladder trucks to turn into temporary bridges.

I saw these Jiaozhi soldiers, with the help of wooden ox carts, chariots, pointed wooden donkey carts and other sheltering siege equipment, quickly came to the moat. Most of these sheltered siege equipment are rectangular or ridge-shaped wooden houses built on rectangular seats, covered with cowhide, and equipped with four wheels underneath, which is like a movable bunker. After paying the price of dozens of people injured in traps and thistles, the Jiaozhi people finally brought the ladder trucks, and several ladder trucks lined up in a row, and then laid wooden planks on them, which became a simple bridge.

As long as it is a lighter siege machine, it can pass through this bridge, let alone people.

Zhi Kexing's moves to the Jiaozhi people have long been clear in his chest, and he said in his heart: "These Annan people have learned a lot!" As everyone knows, it is by virtue of this set of "advanced" siege methods that the Jiaozhi people have repeatedly made a lot of gains in Zhancheng and Zhenla, so that Zhancheng, Zhenla and other countries have no choice but to ask Dashun for help. Champa and Zhenla, geographically more inclined to Tianzhu, even the language, and Tianzhu language have an inseparable relationship. Cochin has always been a vassal country of the Central Plains, which is equivalent to a fierce collision between the two cultures. Who is superior and who is inferior can be seen at a glance.

Of course, Zhe Kexing didn't think about it so much, all he thought about was how to tie these Jiaozhi people firmly under the city of Qinzhou, so that Lu Chenhuan's side could win more time.

Just thinking about it, the soldier next to him reminded: "General, those Annan monkeys have crossed the moat, do you want to fight?" ”

Zhi Kexing shook his head and said, "Stay closer, don't waste arrows and sassholes." ”

This time to defend Qinzhou City, the forbidden army did not bring enough equipment to defend the city. Except for a slightly more abundant bow and arrow, there are very few pieces of wood or rolling stones, which cannot support a protracted war of attrition. Zhi Kexing knew very well that the firepower should be concentrated in one point in order to inflict the heaviest blow on the enemy. The farther away you are, the lower the hit rate. Wars have always been fought with the aim of eliminating local vital forces. Coupled with the lack of equipment to defend the city, it is necessary to use "good steel on the blade".

Even though the defenders did not prevent the Cochins from crossing the moat, the Cochins still paid the price of many casualties. Even some unlucky soldiers of Jiaozhi actually stepped on the trap with one foot in the air. Most of these traps buried deep in the ground are covered with thatch and gravel, and they are no different from ordinary soil. But underneath it was all long, sharpened bamboo, deeply embedded in the ground. Once in the air, gravity combined with pressure can hardly be spared. The pointed bamboo can easily pierce the human body. The luckiest soldier was nothing more than having his feet nailed to the ground and becoming a living target on the city wall.

The trap laid by the forbidden army is extremely cunning. It is often a flat road, and there is nothing unusual along the way, and there are no traps, thistles or anything. When the soldiers arrived in such a place, they often rushed forward with a scream. In the most unprepared situation, the front suddenly stepped into the air, and the back could not be contained, and it was also brought into the trap together. What's more, these traps don't have much reaction when one person steps on them, and once two people step on them, they will be empty. Such a trap, one pit, can kill several, or even a dozen Jiaozhi soldiers, into the pit, which can be described as terrifying.

Most of the soldiers who fell into the trap were killed directly. Those who were lucky not to die, one by one, were crying wolves and howling in pain, which directly hit the morale of the Jiaozhi soldiers who were besieging the city, and made the vanguard change Chen Zhizhi: "These Han people are really despicable!" Pass my military orders, beat the drums, and don't retreat! ”

"Knock Knock Knock !!"

Another drum beat sounded, and the Jiaozhi soldiers, who had been a little hesitant, still had to rush forward. But they also learned to be obedient, step by step, and slowly "walked" towards Qinzhou City.

Zhi Kexing's eyes flashed, and he knew that the time had come, and immediately shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

Rows of crossbowmen of the Dashun forbidden army, with a shout, stood up from under the battlements suddenly, and there was no need to aim, the enemy was only thirty paces away from the city wall, and the blind man could shoot down one by pulling the bow at will. What's more, the forbidden army used the three-stage shooting that was common to the musket team, and after a row of bows and arrows was released, another row of bows and arrows went down, as if it was raining. No matter how thick your shield is or how many layers of armor you have, you will still be pierced by a rain of arrows in a ring.

Only the soldiers who hid behind the wooden ox carts, carts, and pointed wooden donkey carts were spared.

For the first time, Chen Gai experienced what the Han style of play is. What they learn is just the skin, and what really has technical content is the training of crossbowmen and the strong bows and crossbows held by crossbowmen.

Along with the crossbows, there are also bed crossbows on top of each enemy tower. These large bed crossbows, although slow to reload, are terrifyingly powerful. A bed-to-cross with a big bowl mouth, aimed at the right place, can be fired out, at least to nail those cross-fingered soldiers with shields to the ground! Even if the shield is pierced, the crossbow arrow is still extremely lethal, and breaking the armor within thirty steps is like piercing through a piece of tissue paper.

Not to mention a shield, even if it was a wooden ox cart, a cart, a pointed wooden donkey cart, etc., it could not help but shoot this crossbow within thirty paces. It is not uncommon to be pierced through the front and directly nail the soldiers hiding behind to the ground.

Such a terrifying weapon directly made these Jiaozhi people frightened, screamed strangely, and retreated one after another, straight to the edge of the moat, feeling that the distance was one hundred and eighty steps, and they were a little relieved.

Chen Gai was so angry that he directly drew his knife, cut down the two soldiers who fled back, and shouted angrily: "Whoever dares to take a step back, this is the end!" ”

The Jiaozhi soldiers looked at each other, and under the urging of the drums, they had to rush to Qinzhou City again. Because he had almost stepped on the trap under Qinzhou City before, this attack was a lot smoother. In addition to carefully dodging the dense traps on the ground, there is no need to worry about any new traps. It didn't take long for the Jiaozhi people to rush to the city of Qinzhou again.

Zhi Kexing has never underestimated any opponent, and every time he goes all out, he repels the attacks of the Jiaozhi people again and again.

By dusk, the Praetorian army was slowly showing casualties. There are also people who are good at shooting. used projectiles to shoot and wound many forbidden soldiers. And the arrows of the forbidden army were drastically reduced, and in the back, they could only use sassal wood to entangle with the Jiaozhi soldiers.

What a big fight!

The sky is dark, the blood is flowing like a river, and the corpses are piled up like a mountain!

The sky was getting dark, and Chen Gai saw that the Han people were determined to defend Qinzhou City, and he couldn't do anything for a while, so he could only withdraw his troops and the two sides boycotted.
