Chapter 153: Advice! Catapults

The news of the annihilation of the Second Army soon reached the flagship, and Lin Ran and the commanders next to him were silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The strength of the Second Army Corps in the entire Little White Army is definitely among the top five, but the whole army of nearly 500 people, facing dozens of water thieves on the other side, will be defeated, which fully illustrates the huge gap in the strength of the two armies, and it is difficult for the small White Army's numerical advantage to play a role.

However, the surrounding Little White Army players are still desperately resisting the besieging water thieves.

Inspired by the Second Legion, the Whites' numerous yachts rammed into the sides of the middle pirates, and then rushed into the boats, slaughtering the enemy's sailors, destroying their oars and some equipment on the bottom of the boat, and making the entire boat incapacitated.

Next, of course, they will have to face the retaliation of the menacing Damask Water Thief Combatants, and in most cases, the Little White Army players will need to lose more than ten men to barely incapacitate a Water Thief.

As a result, it is not uncommon for a whole regiment of the Little White Army on a yacht to rush into the enemy ships, but not to come out of the enemy ships again.

The elimination of the Xiaobai Army into a formation made everyone on the flagship heartbroken, and the only thing that made people happy was that through the suicide attack of this legion and legion, almost all the water thieves lost their ability to fight, or slowly stayed in place, helplessly turning, or walked uncontrollably in the direction of the river with the flow of the Gan River.

At this time, the Little White Army had already lost nearly two thousand people, and thirty or forty yachts were sunk and damaged.

Everyone on the flagship breathed a sigh of relief, although the price paid was not small, but it finally blocked the impact of the enemy army, which is not a small miracle.

However, there is still no good way for the Little White Army players to deal with these immobile pirate ships, because as long as the Little White Army's warship yacht gets slightly close to the opponent's ship, it will be attacked by the swift arrows of the water thieves on the boat.

Most of the Little White Army players are equipped with hard iron shields, but they are very weak in the face of the special fine iron arrow arrows made by the water thieves, and the long arrows only need a few to shoot through the iron shield, causing huge damage to the Little White Army players behind.

The yachts of the Little White Army could only wander back and forth from the range of the pirate ships, but they had no way to take the other party.

"You can't keep it like this, Boss Xiaobai, I'll lead a team of people to rush!" It's been a cool autumn and said behind Lin Ran.

Lin Ran shook his head: "Although your first legion has better combat effectiveness than the second legion, and the equipment and supplies are more sufficient, the strength of this group of water thieves on the opposite side is too strong, and you five hundred people can't change the situation if you go up." ”

"What then? With so much to lose, it's impossible for us to withdraw. Xue Min said unwillingly.

In the current situation, the Jinfan thief has lost his ability to move, and it is naturally easier to retreat, but even if he goes back now, he will always have to go to Liyang City through this waterway in the future. This time both sides have a grudge, and even if they come next time, they will definitely have to fight in this waterway, and the form will not be much better than now.

What's more, now that the entire naval army has lost a quarter, such a huge loss has no gain at all, and if you retreat now, it is actually the same concept as losing the battle.

"Actually, I have a way to deal with this gang of water thieves."

Zhao Ying held the long sword in her hand and said to everyone.

Everyone looked at him in surprise, and even NPC history-level military general Zhu Zhi turned his head to look at her.

Unlike the player, in the concept of the Eastern Han people, the idea of male superiority and female inferiority is deeply ingrained, so it took him so long before he noticed the beautiful and heroic woman in front of him.

"What's the solution?" The crowd asked.

Zhao Ying nodded and said, "Actually, it's simple, this time some of our yachts didn't carry too many players, but transported siege equipment and catapults.

Since this catapult can be used on the ground, we can also transport the catapult to the deck to attack the enemy.

The catapult's attack range is several miles away, and the damage is huge, far exceeding the range and attack power of these pirate archers, and can even cause irreversible damage to the opponent's boats, and they may not need us to board the enemy ship, they will be driven into the water one by one by us. ”

Everyone's eyes lit up, yes, everyone was limited by their own thinking before, and subconsciously thought that now it was a water war, and the equipment on land would not be useful, so everyone didn't think of this method.

"The feasibility of this method is very high, and it will be carried out immediately." Lin Ran said.

The Little White Army brought a total of ten catapults this time, all of which were newly built by Xiaobai Village recently, and the ships also carried some special round bluestones, which were extremely heavy in size, and their lethality and destructive power to buildings and personnel were higher than ordinary stones.

It's just that this kind of stone is not easy to find, usually only in the iron ore area and some iron ore points are accompanied, and the difficulty of mining is even slightly higher than that of iron ore, so when he came out of Yuzhang County this time, Lin Ran was worried that it would be difficult to get this special bluestone in Liyang City in a short time, so he asked Xiaobaijun to transport a yacht of bluestone over.

This time, it came in handy.

Ten catapults lined up in front of and behind the five yachts, and the pitchers who operated the catapults used a thumbs up to roughly estimate the trajectory of the stones thrown by the catapults and calculate where they landed.

Although it is very primitive, it is also a common problem of all catapults nowadays, and in order to get a more accurate hit rate, it is necessary to rely on the effect of the first shot to slowly correct it.

The catapult's arm was slowly pressed down by the pitchers, and then loaded with heavy bluestone, and the player in charge of controlling the trigger of the catapult turned his hand towards the huge trigger, and the bluestone flew out quickly.

Ten huge bluestones whizzed towards the water thief in the center, but none of them hit.

The heavy boulder hit the river surface in front of the water thief, splashing the sky, and the huge water splash rushed up to a height of more than ten meters, turning into a little water droplet, like a breeze and rain, and poured on the heads of the water thieves on the side of the wind.

It turned out that when the pitchers calculated the angle of shooting, the angle was a little lower, and the stones fell in front of the water thief.

"Adjust the angle now!" The players who command each catapult immediately increase the angle of the catapult, quickly fill it, and throw bluestones.

When they were in Xiaobai Village before, they had practiced this set of manipulation procedures countless times, so the movements were very fast, and in less than five minutes, the second wave of adjusted bluestones came as scheduled. (To be continued.) )
