375 Goal: Recovering the Western Section of the Great Wall (5)

It is said that Renduo Baozhong has done too much, Zhang Xian did not doubt it at first, but when Han Shizhong proudly claimed that he had swept away all the party and army fortresses outside Lingzhou City in only three days, Zhang Xian became suspicious, and personally inspected the broken fortresses and the enemy soldiers who were killed, Zhang Xian strangely found that the fortress was in tatters, and the soldiers were all old and weak.

This is not surprising, it can only be said that the party people gave up the outside and put all the elite troops in the city, which is not surprising, but when he marched to the city, Zhang Xian found that the party army in the city was in a mess, which made Zhang Xian feel strange, when he attacked Lingzhou City a few years ago, because Lingzhou City was extremely important to the party members, the party people resisted desperately, making it difficult for the Song army to succeed, even if the times have changed now, the party people should not give up Lingzhou City.

Zhang Xian was very strange, vaguely felt that this thing was not ordinary, the so-called abnormal things must have demons, Yue Fei's earnest teachings made Zhang Xian have an extra mind, no matter what, he felt that this situation was not quite right, the party seemed to have a conspiracy, so Zhang Xian decided to test the reality in the city first, and then decide whether to launch a general attack.

This temptation tested the hidden power of the party members in the city, rolling wood and arrows poured down like heavy rain, shouting and killing shockingly, Zhang Xian's face suddenly tightened, and a fine bead of sweat appeared on his forehead - fortunately, he had an extra heart, otherwise he would definitely be cut into donkey meat and burned by the big handsome when he went back!

Zhang Xian was extremely happy at the same time, Renduo was extremely flustered, and his biggest reliance was gone, and he was seen through by the Song army. The Song army actually made a feint, not a general attack. He leaked out the biggest reliance of Lingzhou City at once, which is good. The Song army is on guard, they will not attack without a head or a brain!

Zhang Xian returned to the camp and thought about it, since he vetoed the measure of exchanging the lives of soldiers for victory, then, there must be other corresponding measures, how to choose? How to use gunpowder to blow open the gate of Lingzhou? A few years ago, I heard Yue Fei say at a secret military meeting of the Western Army that Yue Xiang was experimenting with a new weapon in the imperial court, which seemed to be a super powerful long-range weapon that could fire gunpowder shells far away, and the principle was similar to that of a bed crossbow. But it's more powerful.

They are actually looking forward to this kind of weapon, but there has been no news of this weapon for a long time, which has to make Zhang Xian feel disappointed, but then there are all kinds of brainstorms, led by Yue Fei, Yue Fei feels that his younger brother has to be distracted from dealing with these small things while dealing with national affairs, which makes him very unhappy, so he secretly organizes absolutely reliable veterans within the Western Army to experiment with new weapons.

The main thing is to know the principle, and knowing it is like a bed crossbow. Launching huge arrows had the effect of a battering ram, and the same was true of gunpowder bullets, which they both knew were powerful when they exploded. However, limited to the effect of human throwing, the range was not enough, and it was not that no one tried to throw gunpowder shells by means of trebuchets. However, the weight of the powder projectile itself is not heavy, and it will be hindered by the wind in the case of long-distance projection. Floats away from the target throwing ground.

In this case, a bed crossbow is a good choice. In order to enhance the power, they also tried to use larger gunpowder bullets, but soon, they found an unsolvable problem - the explosion of the gunpowder bullet needs to ignite the lead, but under the premise of the super power brought by the super shooting ability of the bed crossbow, the huge kinetic energy brings huge resistance, which is manifested in the resistance of the wind without exception, which will destroy the ignited lead......

It shot out, far away, accurately, but did not explode, because the lead was blown out by the wind during the shooting...... After everyone understood this truth, they were all Spartan, Yue Fei was dumbfounded, and all the generals of the Western Army knelt down in a frustrated way......

Everyone is a soldier, the rectum is empty-headed, it is an expert in fighting and killing, and it is too difficult for this group of men to be afraid of science and technology.

They gave up this practice, but at present, they urgently need such technology, otherwise this battle will inevitably pay a huge price of casualties, which Zhang Xian does not want to see, in annoyance, Zhang Xian out of the tent and wandering around, his eyes inadvertently swept over a group of soldiers who were transporting grain, looking at the grain cart loaded with slow grain packs, and couldn't help but sigh Fortunately, the food is enough, otherwise it is really difficult to get it, but the food is also limited, if it is not faster...... Well? This car......

Zhang Xian's eyes suddenly lit up, staring at the grain truck, his brain was spinning rapidly, running at high speed, and finally thought of a way.

Everyone didn't understand Zhang Xian's sudden order to rush the chariot, but when the chariot was made out appropriately, and Zhang Xian ordered to pile up large gunpowder shells inside, everyone understood Zhang Xian's thoughts and was immediately excited.

In this way, Zhang Xian wants to charge instead of the soldiers and blow up the city gate of the Western Thieves!

The Song army spent three days preparing these means of attack, and during the three days, Renduo was loyal to him, he didn't know what kind of way the Song army would use to deal with him, so he could only silently prepare, prepare more arrows and rolling wood and stones, organize more training for the people, and prepare to go to the city to die.

Three days later, someone came to report that the Song army had left the camp, and the neat army formation began to advance in the direction of the city, as if to prepare for the siege of the city, Renduo Baozhong was excited, and the Song army was finally going to attack the city! But at the same time, he also felt worried, the Song army did not move for three days, this is a very strange thing, what are they preparing for? What are the intentions?

Renduo Baozhong boarded the city gate, looking at it from a distance, between the Song army array was like a huge dark cloud, black pressure came to them, so that Renduo Baozhong had a suffocating sense of oppression, but it was very strange, the Song army array slowly approached, did not charge, advanced to a relatively far place, it was a place that the city defense weapons could not reach, and it stopped, there was no siege posture, no siege weapons appeared, just stopped.

"General, what is the Song army doing? Why not siege the city? After looking at the Song army's large array for a while, he found that the Song army did not attack the city, and the generals under Renduo Baozhong did not understand it, so they began to ask their generals.

Renduo Baozhong also felt strange: "It's strange, why doesn't the Song army stop advancing?" Not a siege? It stands to reason that the siege equipment should be the first row to attack, and now the siege equipment has not been taken out, what is the Song army doing? ”

The general was just about to continue asking questions, when he saw that the large array of the Song army seemed to be scattered, and then a bunch of ...... appeared from the large array Chariot? Right! It's a chariot!

"General, look, it looks like a chariot? The chariot of the Song army? The Song army wanted to attack the city with chariots? What's going on? The general asked a strange question, but the old man was dizzy and couldn't see clearly, and when the chariot was getting closer and closer, he found out what the chariot looked like, and at the same time felt strange, they didn't send troops without siege equipment, and they wanted to attack the city with dozens of chariots? Such a chariot can be smashed with a single stone!

What was Song Jun thinking?

Renduo Baozhong also understands that there must be a demon when things go wrong, but when he is old, his head does not turn fast enough, and he can't figure out why this is anyway, just a few dozen chariots, even if they can fit ten soldiers in them, they are only a few hundred Song soldiers, and a rain of arrows can be done, is the Song army too light on the enemy?

"No matter how much, prepare the stones, and once the Song army's chariot approaches the city, smash it for me!" Although Renduo Baozhong is old, but after all, Rong Ma has been a life, and the general's instinct tells him that any enemy equipment that enters the range that threatens the safety of the city must be destroyed, so he gave this order, and just when this order was issued, the Song army chariot under the city suddenly exerted force, and the war horse ran quickly, sweeping away the previous slow posture.

The party troops in the city were all surprised, they didn't understand what these dozens of chariots wanted to do, and Rinda Hozhong also saw this scene, although he thought it was not a big deal, but instinct told him that it was very dangerous, and he must not let these chariots approach the city wall, so he immediately ordered: "Prepare immediately, attack these chariots with stones!" ”

The order was quickly delivered, and immediately the soldiers began to prepare to attack, but the chariots were moving too fast, and the soldiers were always unable to aim, occasionally hitting one or two pieces, and did not inflict a devastating blow on the chariots, the chariots seemed to be very well defended, and the horses galloped quickly, and soon approached the city, and Rinda Hotada found that these chariots were gathering in the direction of the city gate, and it seemed that the target was the weakest link in the entire city wall - the city gate.

Someone suggested that the city gate should be sealed and not opened, but Rinda Ho Chung sternly rejected it - you sealed the city gate, how can we go out and attack? In fact, the original intention was, you sealed the city gates, how can we escape?

But as it was now, Rinda Ho Tada's heart was trembling, and his instinct told him that if these chariots were allowed to approach the city gates, something terrible would happen, so he yelled, "Don't let those chariots come near the city gates!" Give Ben a hard smash! Smash hard! ”

The order is like a mountain, and immediately a large number of soldiers raised stones and smashed them down, many chariots were hit, but they were protected by superb defense, and there was no loss, but there were still a few stones that hit a high-speed running war horse, the war horse screamed several times, fell to the ground and died, and the chariot also overturned, and the two soldiers and a large number of gunpowder bullets inside were scattered on the ground.

Nido didn't know what gunpowder bullets were, but he knew how to deal with them, so he quickly ordered: "Aim for the horses!" Smash! Crossbowmen! Aim for the warhorse! Shoot! ”

Zhang Xian, who was not far away, discovered the preparations of the party army, immediately frowned, and waved his hand: "Bed crossbow ready!" Trebuchet ready! Bombard the city! Cover the chariot! ”

The Song army had already prepared, the bed crossbow and trebuchet were immediately ready, rushed to the firing range, and immediately loaded, and the commander gave an order, and the bed crossbow and trebuchet were immediately launched. (To be continued.) )
