Chapter 52: Wang Rui Siege City

Most of Qiu Ba's subordinates are players, and they are good at using crossbow arrows that are relatively simple to operate. www.biquge.info However, most players have a bad grasp of the bow and arrow.

After all, whether the marksmanship is good or not, it can also be compared, whether the archery is good or not, and whether you can shoot far away is the last word! For example, Li Tang, his martial arts should be considered the top among players, but he can only shoot marksmanship, but he can't archery.

It is for this reason that the enemy is simply unable to deal with the archers on the warship.

Speaking of archers, in fact, they cannot be trained overnight.

Moreover, why is it that the professional cavalry of the agrarian peoples rarely defeated the nomadic cavalry. Actually, there is a reason. This equestrian is one thing, and archery is also one thing.

The bows and arrows of the farming people are generally superior to the nomads, basically, the bow is small and the range is long, but their bowing skills are much inferior.

Nomads, who have used bows and arrows since childhood, are their life skills, and they use them day and night, and they are naturally proficient. The archers of the farming peoples are generally trained later, although the targeted training effect is also good, but in the end, they are not as good as the nomads.

is like the Mongolian cavalry, their archers can fire a strong bow of 150 catties, and this rate of fire, range, and penetration are naturally needless to say.

The Manchu cavalry, they are a semi-nomadic people, they can shoot 120 catties of strong bows, which is also good.

The cavalry of the Kangxi era was able to shoot a 90-pound hard bow.

The last Mongolian cavalry in modern times could only use a soft bow of 20-30 catties. As for the range and rate of fire, needless to say.

As for the last Manchu people, they can only pull out the toy bow, and the range is 5-6 meters, which scares people to death!

It's easy to understand that it's not that they can't pull such a heavy bow anymore, it's that they can't control such a bow.

Imagine that the purpose of firing your bow and arrows is to shoot the enemy. If you reluctantly open the bow, not to mention that the head is gone, it will strain your muscles.

At the same time, the reluctance to open the bow is bound to not last. Qualified archers, on the other hand, need to shoot dozens of rounds of bows and arrows in a short period of time. Reluctantly opened the bow, obviously unable to do it.

And for archery, there is also a question of technique, a question of habit. Just like a strong weightlifting champion and a skinny farmer compare strength, a weightlifting champion absolutely beats the farmer. But if they walk better than carrying a burden, it is estimated that most weightlifting champions are no better than the average farmer's.

This is very simple, carrying the burden is a farmer's life skill. They use this skill every day, so it's easy.

And Hercules is strong, not fake. However, he has not been professionally trained to carry burdens, and he will definitely not be able to last.

Fortunately, there are many rich people under Qiu Ba's players, who all paid out of their own pockets and bought repeater crossbows, hand crossbows, etc., just like pistols, hanging on their waists.

At this moment, a large number of sailors climbed the city wall and were immediately hit by a flood of crossbow arrows.

Speaking of this crossbow arrow, there is an advantage, that is, the rate of fire is fast, accurate, powerful, and penetrating, and once it is shot by a crossbow arrow, it will lose its combat effectiveness if it does not die, unlike bows and arrows that cannot penetrate heavy armor.

Therefore, Wang Rui's sailors were not comfortable, they climbed the city wall with great difficulty, and before they could raise their swords to kill, they were shot by someone with a crossbow arrow, and it can be counted that the division died before he was killed!

For a while, Qiu Ba had no way to take Wang Rui's archers. And Wang Rui's sailors could not gain a foothold on the city wall, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.

It's just that Qiu Ba knows that it is not good, and his advantage is that he has strong short firepower and is not afraid of sailors going up the city wall. And the strength of the other party is that it has strong firepower and cannot be suppressed by itself.

If this goes on for a long time, the other party can use a bow and arrow to shoot all his own people on the city wall, and then send people to attack the city, which is bound to be a situation where one loses the other!

Qiu Ba also has a disadvantage, that is, the number of people is small!

Compared with Wang Ruilai, his troops are only a quarter of Wang Rui's, and he has lost the dangerous position of the city wall, and his own troops are immediately stretched.

So, Qiu Ba knew that it was no further ado, and hurriedly asked for help from the other three city walls.

The western city wall is probably impossible to count on. After all, there were soldiers outside the city who dragged Sun Xia.

However, the player forces in the north and south are indeed fine, and they can fully support themselves.

Wang Rui on the warship is naturally not stupid.

As soon as the two sides came into contact, they immediately knew the advantages and disadvantages of both sides.

However, I don't have much time left.

Because, he just made a desperate bet and used strange tricks to attack the city, and many of his ships were seriously damaged.

Moreover, the warships in front, albeit badly wounded. Moreover, the ground below will only tilt for a while, but it will not sink. Rather, the ships that hit the rear, although not badly injured. However, there was no support underneath them, and water began to seep and slowly sink.

Therefore, Wang Rui must also fight quickly, otherwise, his ship will sink and damage most of it.

If you capture the city, these are minor problems, and it will become a classic battle example and a good story.

However, if you can't capture the city, it's not a good story, it's a joke! What's more, once the ship sinks, it will cause panic among the soldiers and drop their morale, but it will be miserable!

Therefore, Wang Rui is in a hurry! This is a lifetime of fame at stake! became a laughing stock, even if he is in a high position in the future, it will become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner for others. This is simply unbearable for the ancients who valued their reputation.

Therefore, even if Wang Rui knew that even if he continued to shoot slowly like this, the victory would be his own sooner or later.

But what if reinforcements arrive? What about the opponent using rockets to attack their own ships? Or some other means? The so-called late will change. The soldier is fast, and once it slows down, it may give the opponent a chance to kick and make the opponent think of the strange trick of turning defeat into victory.

Such cases can be said to abound in history!

Many times it is often a matter of thought, and as a result, two generals who are almost the same, one has become a famous general through the ages, and the other has become a negative teaching material for thousands of years.

Don't say anything else, let's just talk about Xiang Yu, who was in full swing at that time. Just because of the benevolence of a thought, Liu Bang was let go, and as a result, one was a generation of emperors, but the other was defeated and killed himself, and he ended up with the warning saying "Don't sell your name and learn from the overlord".

In fact, when Qiu Ba saw the arrival of the ship, the first thing he thought of was the rocket.

It's a pity that Qiu Ba originally thought that the ships couldn't get close to the city walls at all, and the rockets couldn't reach far, so they couldn't reach the ships at all, so what was the use of equipping them? Therefore, it is not equipped.

When he saw that Wang Rui didn't care about the lives of the warships and soldiers, and desperately attacked the city wall, he thought of mobilizing rockets to come over, it was too late.

However, with the emptying of the city wall and Wang Rui's death order, more and more sailors began to desperately climb the city wall, and the weakness of the number of players made it impossible for them to shoot.

After all, there are too many sailors! In this way, more and more sailors went up the walls. The walls on this side fell in an hour.

And at this moment, the rocket team mobilized by Qiu Ba was too late to shoot. Because the city wall was already in chaos, even a small number of rockets fell on the gangplanks and ships of the city, and they were quickly extinguished by the soldiers.

After all, there are too few rockets that can be fired.

Moreover, the ships have been flooded, and the water is not needed to fight from the outboard, but directly from the cabin to scoop water to extinguish the fire, how many times the efficiency has been improved!

The reinforcements who came to the rescue were also powerless to rescue. At this moment, the sailors and players are mixed together, and the two sides can only fight with swords and guns, and the crossbow arrows have lost their due deterrent.

Because, the penetrating power of crossbow arrows is strong, and when an arrow goes down, it often not only shoots the Yellow Turban soldiers, but also shoots their own people. Shooting a Yellow Turban soldier, the reward points are naturally not as good as the deduction for shooting a person of one's own.

Even so, there are still some people who, in times of desperation, take out their crossbows and point them at the outside, regardless of who they shoot.

So, I don't know how many players and sailors were killed by mistake in such a situation!

In the end, Wang Rui's army had already reached the city and gained a firm foothold. And the rocket team of Qiu Ba also blindly threw outward through the city wall, and in the end, ignited the springboard made of bamboo and the warship made of wood.

These warships, basically next to each other, and they ran aground, and they couldn't move away at all, so they could only watch as they burned down.

And those damaged and sunken warships are also trained with the warships in front of them and cannot be moved. Only those ships that were lightly injured, or intact, were hurriedly pushed away.

At this moment, it will be difficult for the more than one million sailors who have already climbed the city wall.

Seeing that the back road was cut off, he had to rush forward in front of him, otherwise, he would be killed on the spot.

Therefore, these soldiers not only did not collapse, but aroused the fighting spirit before death.

The so-called trapped beast is still fighting, and this is the case. Since you can't survive no matter what, then let's kill!

As for speaking of surrender? Then don't think about it! The soldiers are twisted together, and if you want to surrender, you have to ask the opponent's knife if you can stop!

Everyone is like chewing Xuanmai, and they can't stop at all!

Wang Rui, who was supervising the battle in the rear, was dripping blood in his heart!

Of course, it is not for the lives of these soldiers, but for the miraculous feats that are within reach! Look at your own warship, ten stops and six stops! There are still more than 500,000 soldiers.

Unwilling! It's just a little bit closer, as long as there is another hour, or even half an hour, there will be no suspense in this war! Now it's just a matter of fate!

"Don't worry, handsome! The subordinates saw that on the left and right sides, a lot of reinforcements arrived, presumably reinforcements from the north and south city walls. Once their defenders are withdrawn, the defensive line will inevitably become weak. The commander could take advantage of this opportunity to send troops ashore and quickly go around to the south to attack the southern wall. ”

At this moment, it was a deputy general of Wang Rui who was suggesting.

The so-called concern must be chaotic! It stands to reason that Wang Rui can naturally think of it on weekdays, but today Wang Rui cares too much about winning or losing, so he didn't think of it.
