Chapter 92: Siege Artifact
Zhu Changyuan's army, more than 3,000 people, was stationed two miles away from Shengjing City.
Although there are not many people, the threat to Shengjing is huge, and Tabai, who defends the city, stands at the head of the city in frustration, not daring to open the door to meet the enemy.
It's very simple, although there are 5,000 people on his side, he may not be able to win 3,000 people outside the city, and if he fails, the city will be lost. But it is more than enough to defend the city, and 5,000 people defend the city, even if 20,000 come from the opposite side, it is useless
But why should Tabai be depressed, because just now he was despised, Huang Taiji made it clear in the holy decree that you guy is okay with everything else, but he is too cowardly, so he is suitable for defending the city, don't open the door and fight those people, otherwise he will definitely die without a corpse.
After receiving such a holy decree, the performance of despondency is good.
Tabai, who looks fat and fat in his fifties, is the sixth son of **Hachi, and the sixth brother of Huang Taiji.
slept until dawn all night, and the soldiers guarding the city on the opposite side did not come to attack, Zhu Changyuan was quite comfortable. But now, he has no plans to attack Shenyang City. Quite simply, because there is still some time before the secret weapon is finished, and letting these pirates shoot their faces upwards is to send them to death.
Although I came here to send them to death, it was not this kind of send-off.
Seeing that there was a leader in the city of Shengjing City, he rode closer, took out a loudspeaker and shouted inside: "Which is the main general who is defending the city, come and talk." ”
The sound was so loud that it could be heard for miles around.
After the tower at the head of the city saw Zhu Changyuan, he greeted him with a rain of arrows without saying a word, Zhu Changyuan was wearing body armor, and immediately wore a layer of heavy armor, standing tall in the rain of arrows, and waited for a few waves of shooting on the opposite side before scolding: "Your grandmother is a bear, Lao Tzu came over and wanted to reconcile with you, so you greeted me like this?" ”
Tabai saw that the guy on the other side was immune to bows and arrows, and his whole body suddenly trembled, and he said loudly: "Wait! "This guy can even speak Chinese.
Zhu Changyuan turned the horse's head and said, "You don't shoot?" ”
"You and the others are all deployed by Geng Zhongming, the king of Huaishun, and I am not waiting for you in the Qing Dynasty, why are you so troubled?" Tabai can't fight, but it's okay to shout, although the voice is much quieter than the horn, but at least Zhu Changyuan heard it.
"The bullshit is not thin, since your last master, Hachi, you robbers began to invade our Daming mountains and rivers, and you still forced your face to say that you can't wait for me? Who are you? Zhu Changyuan asked.
"Bold, dare to insult my father, you look for death! Someone, open the gates for me, I'm going to skin this guy alive!" Tabai was furious, and someone dared to insult his father in front of him, and he couldn't bear it.
But a young man next to him, who looked to be only about twenty years old, persuaded him and said: "Sixth brother can't, the imperial brother asked you to defend the city, don't attack, don't be angry and fall for the enemy's tricks!" ”
Tabai touched his head and said, "Yes." He gratefully glanced at the young man who persuaded him, and said, "You are still fifteenth brother, and you can see the enemy's agitation at a glance." ”
If Zhu Changyuan heard this, he would have to die of laughter. I just have nothing to do and come over to talk nonsense to you, okay, the ghost is here to provoke you, is it good to provoke you, come and beat me?
"The difference between what the general said!" The young man who looked to be only in his twenties, with a resolute face, snorted, and said to Zhu Changyuan in a salty tone: "King Huaishun was in trouble when he was in Denglai, and he was beaten by the Ming army and had nowhere to go. ”
Zhu Changyuan raised the spear in his hand and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"In Xia Bucai, the fifteenth son of the first king, Duoduo is also!" Duoduo stood at the head of the city, facing Zhu Changyuan from afar.
Nani? Duoduo, this is Duoduo, the executioner who slaughtered Yangzhou for ten days? It doesn't look like it, it's about the same age as me.
Sure enough, people are not to be seen.
This kind of peerless killing god, when you stand there, there will naturally be a domineering aura on your body.
But how could Zhu Changyuan bird him, with a relaxed smile on his face, he took out the big horn in his hand and shouted: "Duoduo has a good face, but it's a pity that he is short-lived!" He also said, "Brother, I am passing by here today, and I don't want to really attack your city, so let's get along with some of my belongings!" ”
"Dreaming!" Duoduo verbally refused.
Tabai jumped hurriedly on the side, and said: "Fifteenth brother, just send them away, I don't know how many people will die in a vicious battle, why do you refuse?" ”
Duoduo is silent!
Zhu Changyuan said: "You have to think clearly, we didn't plan to break through your city, but this doesn't mean that we can't break through your city, you know each other quickly take out your belongings and me, and I'll go back." ”
Seeing that the two people in the city were unmoved, Zhu Changyuan replied.
It's not that he really wants these guys' property, but he deliberately blackmails them to contain them, so that he can delay time, you must know that the siege weapons created by Liu Guang are about to be ready, and they must be stabilized now.
For one day, two days, and three days in a row, Zhu Changyuan just didn't attack the city, but just let the army be stationed outside the city, and then he had nothing to do, wearing body armor, wearing a helmet, and holding a bullhorn to chat with Duoduo and Tabai.
Duoduo couldn't bear it anymore and said, "This guy is playing tricks, or waiting for reinforcements." We might as well go out of the city and try his reality! ”
Tabai stopped: "Have you forgotten the emperor's holy decree? Even if he comes with another 5,000 men, it will be impossible to capture Shengjing, don't worry, we can defend with peace of mind. ”
Finally, on the night of the third day, Zhu Changyuan transported twenty siege artifacts to a large camp tent that he had specially made. Twenty wagons, each with a strange thing pulling on it.
Calling dozens of powerful Fusang pirates to unload the artifacts from the carriage one by one, and then put them neatly in the camp tent, Zhu Changyuan smiled.
There are more than 20 siege artifacts in total, each siege artifact looks like a small train car, the top of the arch is made of steel plates, and the two sides are also made of steel walls, there is no grid in the front and back, like a huge steel cylinder with transparent ends, and the two ends are open.
At the bottom of the cylinder barrel are six rubber tires on each side, all of which are shrunk into the steel cylinder and are not visible from the outside.
An engine machine is placed at one end of the steel tube to provide forward power to the entire system. There is a huge motorized air compressor, each air compressor is equipped with two long air pressure pipes, one end of the pipe is an air compressor, and the other end is a hand-held iron awl, commonly known as a pickaxe on the construction site, which can be used to chisel through concrete walls.
The idea of the iron cylinder was conceived by Zhu Changyuan, which also has a prototype in modern society, and is a shield machine used to dig tunnels on the construction site.
