The army rested for a day, and the next day confirmed the start of the siege war, the opening knew that the opponent's strength was better than them, and they would never easily go out of the city to face the battle, only by giving them enough pressure could they have a chance to capture Jiaxing City.

"Knock knock knock." One by one, the assembled trebuchets were pushed to the pointing point in groups of 100 people, and after visual inspection, they were aimed in the direction of Jiaxing City.

Cloud cars, building cars, mobile car, siege vehicles also arrived in front of the battlefield, a tiger on the back of the bear, the left hand weighs 80 pounds of square shield, the right hand a horse chopping knife in front.

In front of the station, Daqian built a high platform in the camp, so that the commander could understand the fighters of the two sides when they were fighting, Zhuge Liang glanced at the generals and said: "Gao Lan, the first siege is handed over to you, this battle is mainly to test the defense of Jiaxing City, and act carefully." ”

"Obey." Gao Kan Hug Fist Do.

Gao Ran rode on the black tiger, ordered five thousand heavy infantry, and slowly came to the front of the battle, since he knew that he was mainly tempting, he was not in a hurry, and said: "Trebuchet, release, chariot, building cart to suppress the city tower, shield hand to cover the army, fill the moat." ”

The hemp rope of the thickness of the baby's arm is taut, the throwing arm of the catapult is bent down sharply, and stones the size of a grinding disc are placed on the pallet.

The soldiers of Jiaxing City only felt that it was dark in the sky, looked up and saw nearly a thousand stones smashing in, and exclaimed: "Be careful of the stones in the sky, pay attention to dodge." ”

"Bang", the first stone bullet hit the city wall of Jiaxing City, and everyone only felt that the city wall was shaking, setting off a large piece of temporarily reinforced loess.

Although there is no catapult in this world, the development has been unprecedented, within a hundred steps to shoot, within five hundred steps of the error is less than five steps, a distance of a thousand steps can only depend on the will of heaven, Jinhua saw that this is not good, sooner or later will let the other party throw stones of the siege equipment to destroy the bed crossbow, hurriedly said: "Counterattack, hurry up and counterattack." ”

The ballista adjusted its direction slightly, and huge crossbow arrows roared out, and in the blink of an eye, several catapults were destroyed, and many soldiers were strung with sugar gourds by the carts.

Gao Ran frowned, and shouted: "The catapult adjusts the attack distance, and suppresses the city head with three shots."

Ballistas, building carts assisted catapults to suppress the head of the city, fill in the moat, the brothers have made meritorious deeds at this time, give it to me. ”

The army raised its heavy shields and approached the moat step by step with slow and heavy steps, and bags of sandbags were thrown into the moat by the soldiers to fill in a passage that allowed the army to approach the walls.

"Watch out for the enemy coming, prepare for battle." The head of the city exclaimed.

Before the words fell, a cloud ladder had been hung on the head of the city, a worker soldier with a small shield, biting a knife in his mouth, trying to climb up, and the siege vehicle under the city was also more than 100 people working together, rushing to the city gate with bows and arrows above.

The Jin Shui Army rushed to Jiaxing City as soon as he got the order of leaving the emperor, but he hurried to Jiaxing City, and never thought that the generals of other counties and counties were all waste, and they did not play a role in delaying time at all, and they arrived in Jiaxing City only two days slower than the Jin Shui Army. Despite the repeated preparations of the Jin Shui Army, the city defense equipment is not sufficient, so it can only be used sparingly.

Jin Hua endured the mood of counterattack, and waited until the Daqian army had climbed to three-quarters of the ladder before shouting: "Rolling stones, sassalwood, hot oil to throw at Lao Tzu." ”

If it weren't for the fact that the main general Jinhua did not give an order, the soldiers below would have already begun to counterattack, they are the famous Jinshui army in the world, when did they suffer from this kind of wretchedness.

As soon as they heard Jinhua's order, the soldiers who had already prepared immediately raised the rolling stone, and the sassal wood threw it down with full of anger, and a pot of hot fire oil was also poured into the siege vehicle, and immediately threw down a torch to ignite the fire oil.

Seeing this, Gao Ran understood that his duty had been completed, and he no longer stormed Jiaxing City, so he immediately collected his troops and returned to the camp carrying hundreds of corpses.

Gao Ran left the soldiers in the camp to rest and heal, and climbed to the handsome platform alone, hugged his fists and said: "Subordinate Gao Ran, come and give orders." ”

"It's hard work, General Gao." Kong Ming smiled lightly.

"The governor laughed, it was all the soldiers who used their lives, and they didn't dare to say bitterness." Gao Ran said with a smile. "I wonder what the Governor has discovered?"

"Haha, since General Gao has asked, Kong Ming should solve your doubts." Kong Ming Dao. "After General Gao's temptation, Kong Ming found that the equipment for defending the city of Jiaxing was insufficient, have you noticed that the guards waited until the soldiers were about to climb to the top of the city, and then they used rolling stones and sassal wood.

If they have to defend the city with sufficient equipment, they don't need to defend like this at all, as long as they see that we have reached the bottom of the city, they can directly use these rolling stones and sassal trees to block our army, and if they really do this, our army's losses will be even greater than now.

Of course, this is just the speculation of the governor of Pontus, and the specific situation still needs to be slowly tested by the generals, but Kong Ming is more sure of one thing, their crossbow arrows are more accurate and sharp, far exceeding our army, so everyone must pay attention to the next action. ”

When everyone heard this, they clenched their fists and said, "Respect your life." ”

Gao Ran looked at Zhuge Liang with a hesitant face, and only then did he find that the city wall of Jiaxing City seemed to be a little different, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, and he didn't know if he should say it.

Zhuge Liang noticed Gao Lan's strange appearance, and thought that he had just let him test Jiaxing City, and he was unwilling to let him go all out, and wanted to ask for the main attack, and said: "General Gao, the governor of Pontus sees that there is something strange in your face, I don't know what's going on?" ”

Gao Ran sighed secretly in his heart when he heard this, it seems that his calm kung fu is still too poor, and he still needs to pay more attention to his calm kung fu in the future, sort out his mood, bow down, and said: "Qi Yu Dudu, his subordinates found that the city wall of Jiaxing City is too old, although it has been reinforced by the Jin Shui Army these days, but the city wall has been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, and has not been effectively maintained.

Although Jin Shuijun tried his best to temporarily strengthen the city wall, his subordinates believed that as long as the catapult was aimed at the wall of Jiaxing City and smashed repeatedly, the city wall would not last long. ”

Zhuge Liang thought for a while, and found that what Gao Ran said made sense, it was still very simple for his army to really break the city, as long as he arranged a large array at will, he could break through Jiaxing City, but this world was too weird, it was best to leave two hands of hole cards, and immediately made a decision, saying: "According to General Gao's suggestion, use a catapult to collapse the city wall." ”

Li Dian immediately clenched his fists and said, "Governor Yudu, my subordinates have an idea. ”

"Oh, I'd like to hear it." Zhuge Liang suddenly became interested and said with a smile.

"The canal in the city of Jiaxing runs through the whole city, and the subordinates think that they can give Jiaxing City a sound to attack the west, and they can use catapults to bombard the city on the surface, and secretly they can discharge a troop of soldiers and horses to dive into the water to destroy the water gate and sneak into the city from the water." Li Dian said immediately.

Zhuge Liang thought about it, Li Dian's suggestion is really okay, as long as the water gate is not built by some rare iron, it can't stop his hand-held weapons at all, not to mention the magic weapons of some generals, and said: "Yes, the two strategies will be carried out together, as long as Jiaxing City is taken, the governor of Bendu will ask for credit for you." ”

The two glanced at each other, clasped their fists and said, "Xie Dudu." Baidu: Read the latest chapter of "Wanjie Yunjie Literature" for free for the first time.
