Chapter 283: The Battle of the Catapult (Four Watches)
Zhao Ying said: "The Fuhe River is actually not a very big river, the width is only a mile long, and we can mobilize a large number of catapults on the front line to bombard their defensive lines." Although such an attack may not necessarily be able to break through the defense line of the infantry opposite them, it is more than enough to deal with their naval forces in the water, and in the face of our catapults, their naval forces will either retreat or be destroyed completely, and at this time we will collect enough fishing boats to break through from one place.www.biquge.info ”
"Very good." After Lin Ran heard this, he agreed very much, applauded, and the others also applauded, indeed, this method is very good, the catapult is an ancient cannon, used to break through the enemy's strong defense, it is very suitable.
Starting from the light catapult made by Xiaobai Village when he was just researching, Xiaobai Village has now developed a medium-sized catapult, which is larger than the previous catapult, with longer throwing arms and much stronger attack power, and can easily throw out more than 100 catties of special stone pellets, or throw fire pots, scattered bombs, etc., and the maximum attack distance is three miles.
Lin Ran dispatched more than 100 medium-sized catapults in the rear and more than 200 light catapults in the front in one go, all of which were brought to the front line, bringing a hail of stones to the Linchuan coalition army on the opposite side.
More than 100 catties of stone pellets are projected out and smashed on the ground, which is a large earth pit with a diameter of more than one meter, if it hits the player, it will be directly bombarded into a sieve, and even the durability of the equipment will be instantly cleared.
Even if it is a warship on the river, a yacht and other warships, equipped with some simple defensive measures, but these are hollow and useless in front of the catapult.
A stone pill passed, and immediately passed through from the deck of the ship to the bottom of the ship, and a huge hole in the size of one meter appeared.
A warship can only withstand the attack of four or five stone pills at most, and if it is more, it will not only leak, but will face the end of falling apart.
More than 300 catapults, according to the speed of firing a stone pellet in five minutes, every five minutes there is a wave of "rain of death" on the head of the Linchuan coalition army, first of all, their warship can not hold up, the warship is large, the combat effectiveness is strong, but the target is also big, as long as the catapult of the Xiaobai Alliance is aimed at their warship, as long as the sight of the catapult is not bad enough to hit the sky, it is almost a hundred shots.
Soon, the clinical coalition lost a large number of warships, and one-fifth of the warships were directly sunk by the catapults of the Little White Alliance, and most of the rest were wounded.
"Change the fire pot." The catapults of the Xiaobai Alliance exchanged ammunition for fire cans, and at this moment, hundreds of fireballs bombarded the surface of the Fuhe River, on the shore, and on the warships of the Linchuan Alliance!
The power of the fire pot against the warship is even more fierce than that of the stone pill! A fire pot bursting on a warship can cause a rumbling fire on an all-wood warship in an instant, and the fire oil in the fire pot is also difficult to extinguish with water, and the warship contaminated with fire oil can only be abandoned.
In just a few rounds of attacks, the navy of the Linchuan Alliance lost nearly two-fifths of the warships, while the people of the Xiaobai Alliance did not even hurt a single hair, but only consumed some stone pellets and fire pots.
In charge of the defense line of the Fuhe River was Gongsun Xuan'er in the Linchuan coalition army, 80% of this naval army was drawn from her alliance, and when she saw that her warship either sank to the bottom of the water or turned into a red and bright fireball, Gongsun Xuan'er Rao was calm, and she couldn't calm down, and immediately ordered all the naval troops to retreat.
If she stayed here any longer, she estimated that it wouldn't take an hour of effort, and her own navy would have to be fully reimbursed here.
"What about our catapults? Why not pull it up? Let's just be attacked by the opposite Xiaobai Alliance here in vain? ”
"Alliance leader, Yimeng alliance leader is dispatching catapults over, let's hold on." A scout came over and said.
"Fuck it!" Gongsun Xuan'er couldn't help but burst into a foul language, as a woman who commanded thousands of villages, Gongsun Xuan'er is a very individual person, with a pungent personality, assertive, and will scold when she is unhappy. This, coupled with her very gentle and beautiful appearance, is really very attractive, in the Fuhe Alliance, to be honest, there are many villages that are attracted by her and take the initiative to join.
"You tell him that if I don't see our catapults again within an hour, I'll order a retreat of five miles at once."
Retreating for five miles, this is a complete abandonment of this defensive line. Gongsun Xuan'er didn't say such things in anger, because the catapult of the Xiaobai Alliance was too much of a threat to them, not only the warship, but also many players on the river bank in this short period of time, with heavy casualties.
And she didn't have any way to deal with the catapults of the Little White Alliance, if it was in an ordinary place, it would be fine, but now in front of her lay this love-hate Fuhe, which blocked the attack of the Little White Alliance, and made her unable to send troops to deal with the mechanical behemoths that sowed the breath of death on the opposite side of the Little White Alliance.
"Yes, Alliance Master." The scout got up and was about to leave, but Gongsun Xuan'er pushed him to the ground.
The scout was surprised by Gongsun Xuan'er's strange move when he suddenly heard a loud bombardment sound a few meters behind him.
He turned to see that there was already a cloud of smoke behind him, and when the smoke cleared, a large pit with torn cyan stones appeared in front of him.
It turned out that fortunately Gongsun Xuan'er pushed him just now, and this huge stone pill almost fell against his head.
The scout turned around with apprehension and thanked Gongsun Xuan'er again and again.
Gongsun Xuan'er said: "Now, you know why I'm in such a hurry, the catapults of the Xiaobai Alliance have now covered my headquarters." ”
Under the repeated urging of Gongsun Xuan'er, Yimeng quickly mobilized more than 200 catapults from the rear, of course, they were all primary, and now in Linchuan County, there is no intermediate catapult developed in that village.
Since he also has a catapult, Gongsun Xuan'er immediately ordered to fire back!
The return fire of the Linchuan coalition army caused some trouble to Lin Ran at first, and Lin Ran immediately ordered the troops to retreat, leaving the catapult in place and starting an ancient "artillery battle" with the catapult of the Linchuan coalition army!
The catapults of the Little White Alliance undoubtedly had a sufficient advantage in this particular battle, not only being a third more numerically than the opposing side, but also possessing a more accurate, more powerful and, most importantly, mid-level catapult with a range far superior to that of the primary catapult.
