Chapter 272, Zhou Dongnan's killer feature
Luo Ji's words obviously startled Zhou Yi and sent him back directly? Is it true that the 2,000 troops and siege equipment in Shangyuan City are all papier-mΓ’chΓ©? And what made him most stunned was that after hearing this, Zhao Pan basically didn't react, neither arrogant nor nervous, just standing there with a calm face.
However, Zhou Yi, a newcomer, would know that according to Zhao Pan's mode of thinking, since Luo Ji said that he could beat the enemy back, there would be no mistake nine times out of ten, and if he didn't do it in the end, it must have been something he made when he was directing the battle, which was his own mistake.
"You led the troops to this side, is it okay on the side of Iron Wall City?" Luo Ji asked casually while walking towards the General's Mansion with Zhao Pan.
"Please rest assured, the patriarch can now be regarded as independent generals, plus they are familiar with the military affairs of Tiebi City, even if the last general is not there, the two of them can cope with it, not to mention that Liu Zheng is in charge himself, there is no problem."
"Since you said so, then I'm relieved." Zhao Pan's words obviously made Luo Ji very relieved, because Zhao Pan's character has always been one to say one, two to say two, never slap a swollen face and become fat, he said that there is no problem, then nine times out of ten it is really no problem.
By the way, it is worth mentioning that Liu Tao and Zhang Luo in Zhao Pan's mouth are actually the two deputy generals that Luo Ji found for him at the beginning, of course, when looking for a deputy general, Luo Ji was not looking for it casually, and the position of deputy general also carries the word 'general', under normal circumstances, it is considered the second-in-command of an army, and he can't throw off two mediocre talents.
Moreover, as Zhao Pan's deputy general, it is equivalent to giving them a chance to learn from Zhao Pan, of course, they can't be sloppy! Therefore, these two people are both good general-level talents, Liu Tao is a general-type talent with a single command limit of four stars, and Zhang Luo is a general-type talent with a single intelligence ceiling of four stars......
"Let's talk about the old days, I'll tell you about the current situation first, as well as the deployment and configuration of troops on the other side." Back at the General's Mansion, Luo Ji, who spread out a map on the table, cut to the point quite simply and directly, in this regard, as a workaholic with a strong sense of responsibility, Zhao Pan certainly would not have any opinions.
The whole situation is relatively simple to summarize now, and it can be explained in a few sentences, so Luo Ji focused on the opponent's siege troops, and the focus of the opponent's siege troops was undoubtedly the two siege towers and the ladder troops.
After all, Luo Ji's civilization does not have a super-large siege machine like a siege tower, nor does he have a ladder force like that, because he doesn't need it for the time being.
The characteristic of siege equipment such as ladder troops and siege towers is to avoid confrontation with the opposite wall, and directly achieve the purpose of occupation by climbing the opponent's wall.
And for Luo Ji, who has a three-bow bed crossbow, he can directly blast the opposite city gate, and then push it all the way over, there is no need to use such a 'roundabout' way to fight, not to mention that the price of the detour is not small, the height of each siege tower must be level with the city wall, just imagine, you should know how much time, resources and manpower it takes to make such a super large siege machine.
At the same time, Luo Ji really didn't know what the specific effect of these two siege towers was, because he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, so he simply handed over the task of explanation to Zhou Yi.
Originally, as a soldier of the Great Zhou, Zhou Yi had obviously seen the power of the siege tower, but now it is also decent, "The siege tower will generally advance with the infantry troops, and the huge size can make these two siege towers attract a lot of firepower to the infantry troops, but in fact this is a trap ......"
"Trap?" Zhao Pan cast an inquiring glance at Zhou Yi.
"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded, "On the siege tower, a large area is made of bronze, and the archer's attack is impossible to penetrate that layer of bronze baffle, and the attack on the siege tower will often end up in vain." β
"I actually used bronze ......" The distance was too far at that time, and the siege tower had been left behind, and it had never been pushed up, even with the help of a telescope, it was a little difficult to see the material on the surface of the two siege towers in detail, and now when I heard Zhou Yi say that the surface baffle of the siege tower was actually made of bronze, Luo Ji was obviously taken aback.
This is simply a Bronze Age armored car, worthy of the old driver who has developed in the bronze rank for at least a few decades, while consuming bronze forging weapons and armor, he also saved up two armored vehicles, no wonder these two siege towers can be hidden by Zhou Southeast as a killer weapon.
After breathing a sigh of relief, he only listened to Zhou Yi continue to say, "When the siege tower is pushed in front of the city wall, the erected bronze baffle will be lowered, and the soldiers hiding inside can easily rush to the top of the city wall." β
"What about the number of people? How many soldiers can a siege tower transport? Zhao Pan, who was experienced in defending the city, saw the key to this at a glance, and then asked out loud.
"The siege tower is divided into two levels, and each floor can hold forty to fifty people."
"Those two floors are nearly a hundred people, and two siege towers can transport about two hundred enemy troops to the city wall in one go." As he spoke, Luo Ji's voice became a little solemn, and two hundred enemy soldiers were killed on the city wall at once, and it was a headache to think about it.
"Arrange the corresponding shield axe soldiers on the city wall, and you should be able to cope with it." Zhao Pan spoke slowly, and his calm tone made it impossible to feel whether the other party was confident or uneasy at this time.
After Luo Ji, Zhou Yi felt that there was another person here that he couldn't figure out, but no matter what, he still had to remind all the things that should be reminded.
Then, I heard him speak again, "It's not that simple, there are three rows of ladders on the back of the siege tower, in other words, once the siege tower is close to the city wall, the soldiers behind will continue to climb the siege tower through the three rows of ladders, and then climb the city wall through the siege tower." β
At this moment, it really gave the two of them a headache, and Luo Ji's brows wrinkled all of a sudden, "Can the bed crossbow penetrate the bronze baffle and destroy the siege tower?" β
This kind of thing, in previous siege battles, other players must have done it, and what Luo Ji needs is an answer!
"It depends on the distance, it is possible to leave obvious dents, basically after every use, the siege tower needs to be repaired, as for the direct penetration, the subordinates think it is unlikely, because the bronze baffle is very thick."
While speaking, Zhou Yi also made a slight comparison, this comparison made Luo Ji and Zhao Pan's mood more solemn, Zhou Dongnan really invested in these two siege towers! The bronze baffle with such a thick brick, thanks to him, the cost of these two siege towers is estimated to be several times more exaggerated than Luo Ji expected.
