"Hey—hey—"

"Boom-boom-"

I don't know who took the lead in striking the city wall with a weapon, shouting "hey-hey-", gradually, the red turbans on the head of the city were tacitly doing the same action, making the same shout, celebrating the rare victory, and the sound was spectacular.

Everyone's face was filled with the joy of victory, and there was no doubt that they had won, but they were also defeated in disarray, and with the strength of their men, it was impossible to organize an effective attack.

Above and below the city wall, there are the corpses of nearly 1,000 Red Horse Exploration Army, all of them are wearing Mengyuan type armor, weapons and flags are scattered and discarded all over the ground, and horses that have lost their owners are wandering on the battlefield.

"Chief, let's go out of the city and pursue!" Wu Liuqi faced the unprecedented victory of the Red Turban Army, and couldn't wait to clean up the battlefield, Ma Ke is a good thing.

Pursuit? It's!

The Red Turban Army in the city is all infantry, there is no cavalry at all, no matter how fast the two legs are, they can't outrun the four-legged war horses.

Hao Shisan looked into the distance, and sure enough, the rout of Yesutai did not go away, but only rested two miles away, and had no intention of retreating.

"Clean up the battlefield! Don't be in a hurry, the weapons and horses that are in hand under the city can't run, and if there are no reinforcements, we will go to attack at night! Hao 13 strictly forbade his army to go out of the city to pursue.

"Boss, look at that side" Monkey Zhang Thirty-one lived up to the title of "monkey", although he was not sharp-eyed, but his eyes were good, he pointed to the dust raised in the distant sky and shouted.

I saw the tall siege towers, ladders, and catapults were the first to show their clues from the sky, and the distance was from far to near, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the strict and huge infantry phalanx was so vast that it almost paved the open space outside Shouzhou City.

Dozens of bronze cannons were displayed at the front of the line, emitting a golden metallic glow.

This so-called cannon does not have a bracket, and it is also called a fire gun or a bowl gun, some are used to hit huge lead shots, and some are used to hit iron sand, but such a round ancient London copper pipe is placed there, I don't know how much difference it is from the power of later artillery?

Dozens of people shouted together, pulled huge catapults, filled the catapults, and put huge stones on them, and there were more than a dozen such catapults.

"Squeak-quack-quack-" The huge bed crossbow let out a terrifying moan, and the shaft of the crossbow was like a small javelin.

Hao Shisan has seen such a formation, but he has seen it in a movie, and in the face of such a formation like Mount Tai's overwhelming, he couldn't help but shudder!

If a war correspondent interviewed Hao 13 at this time, Hao 13 could only use two afterwords to express his mood at this moment.

1. Sledgehammer in the crotch of the pants - enough for J*B to choke.

2. Monkeys in the Desert - Waste (Baboons)

Originally, I thought that I could take a dozen brothers to eat a full meal, but I was coerced by my brothers to join the torrent of the rebel army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and I inadvertently met King Xiaoming, a prominent figure in Mingjiao, and later had seven hundred horsemen, a Shouzhou city, and later a new army of thousands of Red Turban Army.

Now it is no longer a simple matter of upgrading to have enough to eat, it has risen to a city, and the worth of nearly 100,000 people is worth their lives.

Hao Shisan didn't have time to sigh too much, it was impossible to escape, losing the protection of the city, and escaping, he was the lamb chased and killed by the Sutai cavalry.

His subordinates are just a new army of thousands of Red Turban Army, and they don't even have any heavy weapons to defend the city, such as nail shots, catapults, ballistas, and fierce fire oil, and they also put out a siege equipment of "Heavenly Dynasty", isn't this anti-aircraft artillery to fight mosquitoes? The disparity in power is too great.

"Only the Red Turban Army was left at the head of the city, and the people hurried to take refuge under the city wall, the enemy was about to attack with heavy weapons to reduce casualties." Hao 13 hurriedly commanded the soldiers and civilians on the city to hide.

Most of the people on the city were also stupid by this scene, and most of them ran down, but there were still bold young men who asked unwillingly: "Chief, if the city is broken, it will inevitably be slaughtered, or it is better to die in battle than to be slaughtered." ”

"I, Hao Thirteen, thank you, as long as I, Hao Thirteen, am here, this wall can't be lost, the enemy is about to attack the city with heavy weapons, there is no need to be next to the city, wait for the enemy to climb the city, you are coming up!"

……

Three hundred paces away, the catapult threw huge stones at the head of the city, and the middle one immediately turned into a lump of flesh, which was to hit the head of the city, and also smashed the battlements of the city, and knocked the city wall out of a large pit.

Two hundred and fifty paces away, the ballista shot a javelin-sized shaft of arrows, embedded deep in the city walls, and the middle one flew out with the shafts.

Two hundred miles away, the artillery shot huge lead pellets, which hit the city, cracking the bricks and cracking the bricks, and piercing the middle ones.

One hundred and fifty paces away, the lead sprayed by the fire was like raindrops, and the middle one was like a sieve, and the blood flowed like an outpouring of blood.

Fortunately, Meng Yuan's artillery and guns were not advanced, and they needed to be cooled down after a pass, and they could not be fired continuously, but the stone-throwing vehicles did not stop for a moment, throwing heavy stones at the head of the city.

A Red Turban Army who couldn't dodge forced a shield to block, and the shield crushed the Red Turban soldier into a meat patty under the pressure of the boulder, and blood splattered everywhere.

A hundred paces away, thousands of foot archers bent their bows and arrows and threw them at the city.

Armored infantry pushed tall siege towers and siege ladders, and slowly pressed towards the city.

The siege towers were also full of archers, firing at moving targets in the city all the time, and the huge infantry army pressed down like a tide, pouring down the city.

Gradually, the enemy's siege equipment and infantry approached the city walls, and the enemy's catapults, bed crossbows, artillery, and archers stopped to avoid accidentally injuring their own side.

How is the Red Turban Army in Shouzhou so miserable?

On the wall of this Shouzhou city, the flesh and blood are blurred. There are those who are hit by arrows, artillery, guns, and stones. With only this fierce attack, the Red Turban Army on the head of the city has suffered four out of ten casualties.

Siege tower, the same height as the city wall, the length and width are more than zhang, the wooden fully enclosed structure, the outer cover is raw cowhide, there are arrow holes, there is a wooden ladder inside, the siege personnel can directly reach the top along the wooden ladder set inside, attack the city head from the top of the siege tower, and push forward by the infantry external force.

The ladder, a long ladder with a wooden lun, is the same height as the city wall, from which the besiegers can climb to the top of the city.

Once these two things are under the walls, there will be a steady stream of infantry using them to climb the walls. The number of the Red Turban Army in Shouzhou is not superior, and the individual combat ability is far inferior to the professional Red Horse Exploration Army.

Gotta find a way to destroy them and stop this thing from approaching the walls!

But what can be done? There is no fierce fire oil, no bed crossbows, no catapults, and the soft-tire bows of the Red Turban Army can't help them at all, so what do they rely on to destroy the enemy's siege equipment?

"Your Excellency! Lord Steward! ”

Jiao Yu shouted loudly, and took the auxiliary soldiers assigned by one hundred Hao Thirteen to the top of the city: "My subordinates have brought the artisan battalion to help!" ”

"Oops! My centurion, I didn't say that you don't have to go into battle, just make me weapons! "Hao Shisan knows Jiao Yu's ability to make firearms in history, when he is a talent, once there is a mistake, who else can he count on to make firearms.

"What are you holding in your hands?" Hao Shisan only found out at this time that Jiao Yu was holding a black pitch-sized ball the size of a bowl in his hand and carrying a velvet in one hand.

"This is called Heaven-Shaking Thunder!" As he spoke, Jiao Yu lit the fuse of the earth-shattering thunder and threw it out of the city.

Only a "boom" explosion was heard, and a miserable scream came from outside the city, a cloud ladder close to the city wall was collapsed in a corner, and the soldiers under the cloud ladder let out an exclamation to dodge, and the cloud ladder fell down.

Kao, isn't this the legendary hand / thunder? There was it in the Song Dynasty, and it was also recorded in the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts", called the earth-shaking thunder, which was to be ignited by hand, and the ancient black fire/medicine was also used, and the power was far less than that of the grenades of later generations.

Hao Shisan finally saw a glimmer of hope in despair!

"Great, with this thing, Shouzhou City can be guaranteed!" Hao Shisan couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and slapped Jiao Yu's immature shoulder, almost slapping him down.

Whether he can keep Shouzhou He didn't dare to say, at least he had a powerful counterattack weapon on hand.

"You didn't say this earlier!" Hao Shisan blamed, looking at the auxiliaries behind Jiao Yu, with two of them.

I was worried that there would not be enough of this thing! Two hundred, it is estimated that it will be able to hold it for a while.

"You didn't give me a chance to say it before, I saw that the battle situation was urgent, so I took the city directly!" Jiao Yu said embarrassedly, and pointed to the crowd in the distance and said, "Jiao Lu, the deputy hundred households, has built a catapult!" ”

It's kind of interesting! It's kind of interesting!

"The auxiliaries of the craftsman battalion obey the order! Immediately go to the city to defend, aim at the enemy's siege equipment and blow it up for me, pay attention to saving, don't waste! When the battle is over, each person will be rewarded with two taels of silver! ”

A hundred auxiliary soldiers rushed to the head of the city, and successively ignited the earth-shaking thunder and threw it out, the smoke of gunpowder with screams, and the sound of the collapse of the ladder and the siege tower were endless, suppressing the momentum of the enemy's attack a lot.

Shocking thunder, the sound is quite loud, the power is limited, if you want to destroy the siege equipment, you need a greater element of luck, there are still a lot of siege towers and ladders on the city wall, but the enemy's attack was frustrated after all, the peak of the soldiers was slightly suppressed, and the Red Horse Exploration Army and the Red Turban Army launched a scorching battle for the city wall.

The people who were hiding in the distance under the city saw that the Red Horse Exploration Army had already landed in the city, and there were no scary stones and lead pills hitting the city, and they didn't need to be greeted at all, and they spontaneously climbed to the top of the city like a tide, and they couldn't stop it.

Hao Shisan also wanted to reach out and cut down a few people, but he was too late, and in front of the siege towers and cloud ladders set up by the Red Horse Exploration Army, it was already densely packed with the people of Shouzhou and the Red Turban Army, and he had no place to start if he wanted to reach out.

The situation has been controlled, Hao Shisan himself has no place to stretch out his hand, and he is even more reluctant to let Jiao Yu on the battlefield, this is a treasure, in the future, he will make firearms, he, a bachelor of agriculture, is useless, and he will have to rely on Jiao Yu in the future, and even Hao Shisan can't use it in the city, so naturally he can't use this high-tech talent to fill the ravine.

Hao Shisanyi waved his hand, Jiao Lu under the city wall understood, ran up to the city head in a hurry, and obeyed Hao Shisan's orders.

The more than 1,000 cavalry of the 10,000-strong households did not go far, but waited 200 paces away, waiting for the besieging infantry to break through the city and carry out a cavalry attack.

Shouzhou City under the blow of the siege heavy weapons, the danger is like an egg, seeing that the city is just a matter of dividing, and Sutai is secretly proud, never thought that the attacking infantry was suddenly hit by the earth-shattering thunder, which really surprised the Sutai Wanhu.

"Isn't Shouzhou a heavy weapon without defense? There is such a thing as earth-shattering thunder, why is it useless for him to attack the previous two cavalry attacks? Could it be that Hao Shisan deliberately hid something? Does he have anything else to hide? Is it really underestimating Hao Shisan's grassroots? "Yes, Sutai began to hesitate.
