Chapter 194: The Decisive Battle

Whether it is the Fire Phoenix Army on the Egret side of the Xia State or the internal army of the Chu State Pass, they all understand the importance of the Yulong Pass. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This is the window of Chu to the outside world, the most important strategic place, and the fortress of war. If the Xia State wins, it will be a bridgehead against the Chu State and a platform to march. Whoever has the fish and dragon pass will have the initiative in future operations. Anyone can use this place to attack and defend.

It is precisely because of this that it is impossible for either the Egret side or the Guannei Army of the Chu State to give up such an important strategic place.

The Guannai army was already on guard at the Fish and Dragon Pass, with a full number of 50,000 men, and even sent their own new barracks to support. And Chang Kun's army is also hurrying towards Yulong Pass.

Egret also understands the reason of time urgency, this way of fighting, he has actually been in a hurry, and every node of the battle is very stuck. Now his combat results have attracted the full attention of the Chu State. This is no longer a war of invasion beyond the borders, or a regional war of petty fighting. It was a head-on collision of the main armies of the two great powers at the border gates, and the situation was different from any previous one.

The Fire Phoenix Army drawn by the Egret is an elite legion this time, with 30,000 cavalry, including the Feng Wu cavalry, and 50,000 infantry, all of which are brought out by Han Feng and can fight head-on with the grassland.

In just half a day, the egret led the team to the Fish Dragon Pass and lined up the team facing the Fish Dragon Pass.

The city wall of Yulong Pass is built extremely high, as high as a fifteen-story building, which can be regarded as the highest wall in the Three Kingdoms Pass. The thickness of the city wall is also six or seven meters, and it is still built solid. Trebuchets can't dig holes in the city walls, and this kind of defense can be regarded as a number of the three kingdoms.

Looking at the high walls of such a checkpoint, even a force like the Fire Phoenix Army couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

"Fuck, the ladder isn't high enough. Han Feng froze in place, a little stunned, and cursed secretly. "Strategist, we may need to remake some improvised siege equipment right now, and we are currently not high enough for ropes or ladders. ”

At such a height, the average arrow tower can't reach it, Han Feng's words may be right, but at this time, there is no time to do this at all.

"Chang Kun is already on the way, there is news flying over from the dark guard, Chang Kun's Guannei army has already passed through the three county towns, if nothing else, he will be able to arrive here tomorrow afternoon. Egret shook his head, "We don't have time to do any siege equipment for a siege. ”

"Eh, are we going to withdraw our troops?" Han Feng was a little confused, "Bai Junshi, how are you going to fight?"

"Well, if you know architecture, you will know that, in general, in order to be stable, such a high wall cannot be made straight up and down like a cuboid, but one side is high, and the other side is like an oblique angle. Cut from the side, like an upside-down right triangle. The same goes for our steppe levels. The egret smiled and said indifferently. "Therefore, if such a high wall can be built in this level, the structure behind it must be the same, but the load bearing under the high wall of a completely solid building is different from that of our grassland level. In order to reduce the weight and not let the high wall collapse, the other party must have arranged a weight reduction hole in the wall. Between the selection of materials and the use of materials, it is also the weight below and the light on the top, although the appearance is the same, but in fact, its frontal defense ability is not consistent. ”

"Master Strategist, I know what you said, but even if there is a hole and the defense is high and low, this is not something that flesh and blood can even break through a trebuchet. You must know that the trebuchet can't be smashed at a distance, it has no power, and the power is there when it's close, but there are also trebuchets on the city wall, I'm afraid that our trebuchet will be destroyed in two clicks, which doesn't play a role, and we don't have time to test the weak point of the other party's city wall. Han Feng shook his head, his face bitter.

"Trebuchet, who said that the city wall should be broken with such backward things?" Egret smiled mysteriously, "From today onwards, the entire way of war will change in my place, because what our Fire Phoenix Army wants to use today is not innovation, but revolution. ”

With that, the egret beckoned gently. Xue Yan understood on the sidelines, and immediately waved the flag to command the rear team, and a moment later, the secret guards gathered on the hills on both sides of the army, and at the same time, they also pushed out a dark, long cylinder-shaped cylindrical iron bump.

Looking at this shape, the corners of the egret's mouth twitched a little. He really didn't bother to say anything when Nina's world asked Fiona to make this thing. Because the appearance of this artillery is really flattering. And for Fiona, who develops magic mecha and has a top-notch level of magic industrial design, it is simply a shame in life to build such a gunpowder cannon that has no aesthetic sense, has a simple design, and can't even be talked about retro.

Although in the end, the egret took out nearly two tons of rare metal in exchange, looking at the value of the face, Fiona reluctantly agreed, but in the end, the eldest lady still did not give the egret a good face.

However, the appearance of this artillery is very ugly, but the materials are really not bad, and the intensity and power of the shelling are comparable to modern medium-caliber artillery. The reason why I chose this style is to be able to learn to build in this world itself. You can't rely on the support of other worlds for the rest of your life, and Xia Guo itself must also master its unique skills.

This artillery is the first gift that the egret gave to the Xia army.

However, now that the artillery is on the scene for the first time, this shape does not dare to be complimentary, so Yu Chen and Han Feng are both in a daze, looking at the white army division in a daze.

"What is this thing? It's so unsightly. Yu Chen scratched his head and said bluntly, if it weren't for Qin Yu's presence in the next sentence, I'm afraid he would have to ask the egret why he put so many objects in the shape of the thing under the man, what was he going to do on the hillside?

"I know it's ugly, but you're going to be rushing for it right away. The egret sneered and nodded at Xueyan.

Xue Yan responded with a clear look, stretched out her hand to open the flag, and the artillery on the hill began to adjust its angle, facing the high wall of the Fish Dragon Pass, aiming for it.

Han Feng also had the same idea, and as soon as Bai Lu finished speaking, he rushed to ask for it, and this thing wanted to respond: "We are not mothers." It's just that she said the word "I", and Xue Yan has already waved the flag.

"Boom!"

Hearing only a loud bang, Han Feng only felt like a thunderbolt exploded in his ears, and his head was shocked. This is also because he was not prepared, such as Bai Lu and Qin Yu and others, they had already protected their ears with real power, but they were affected at all.

When Han Feng looked towards the Yulong Pass again, he saw that on the city wall, bricks and tiles were flying horizontally, and two pits had actually been opened on this unattainable and incomparably hard high wall, although it was not big, but it was enough to prove it.

This black lump of iron, that is terrifying!
