For all the generals, the shock brought to them by Deng Guinian and Luo Zhen's falling wooden tower was too strong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

They are all men who have been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, and they all know how the defending side uses the city defense facilities to create killing means for the enemy in urban offensive and defensive battles.

I have seen a lot of rolling wood and stones, what boiling oil and gold juice, and what bed ballista carts, even if it is the stone cannon cart that Gu Shijun is good at mentioned before, that is, the catapult, and the crossbow, everyone has also experienced it and doesn't care too much, but this thing in front of me really subverts everyone's cognition.

It is incredible to be able to throw a rolling log weighing 100 catties in a given direction for dozens of zhang, and also maintain balance to maximize its kinetic energy, and this is still a two-way parallel, throwing here and there, you can hit the enemy in two directions at the same time.

Veteran generals like Yang Kan, Qin Zaidao, and Gu Minghai immediately saw the power of such a weapon, and Yang Kan and Gu Minghai even rushed to the side of the Falling Wood Tower with an arrow step after the Falling Wood Tower stopped, and began to look around.

Several other people also gathered around, looking to see how the falling wooden tower worked, and how it worked to project rolling wood without interruption.

Deng Guinian and Luo Zhen stood in the outer circle, looking disdainful.

If this thing can be seen by these rough soldiers, then what do you want these magicians and Taoist mages to do? Just go home and hug your wife and children and eat them and wait for them to die.

The ingenious and mysterious design process and principles are indeed not something that these warriors can understand.

They couldn't imagine that a piece of rolling log would roll down from the feeder table and go through the middle section of the silo that would undergo such a huge change, and when it came out of the box, it would become so violent and ferocious.

Just like the magicians and magicians don't understand why the same two people can crack the stele with a single move, and the other can fly a few feet away with a single jump.

Yang Kan's eyes were sharp, and after determining that he could not figure out the principle of this falling wooden tower, he began to ponder the strengths and weaknesses of this device.

"Brother Turtle Year, the reason why this thing is designed with two projection ports, and at such an angle, is it intentional?"

Yang Kan's mind is indeed powerful, and he can see the mystery at a glance, which even Luo Zhen and Deng Guinian have to obey.

"Well, there are indeed considerations in this regard, when Brother Boshan designed, he considered that if it is a frontal projection, the coverage is relatively narrow, and it is easy to be avoided by the enemy, and in this design, both angles are launched from the flank, diagonally crossing, the enemy's offensive formation is difficult to prevent, and even if you know, it is difficult to respond, otherwise you can only watch the formation being disrupted. Deng Guinian also admired Luo Zhen's design concept.

Yang Kan nodded slightly, indeed, in this way, the Falling Wood Tower can not only strike in two directions, but also the coverage of this flank attack is much larger, and the destructive power of the attack formation against the enemy army is also several times greater, which is quite powerful.

"If this kind of thing is driven by magic materials, I don't know how endurance it is?" Yang Kan asked another key question.

If you can only project one or two dozen rolling logs, it doesn't make much sense, and the enemy can completely drag down this effective limited magic device by loosening the formation.

"Shichiro seems to be specifically picking thorns, but he does have a reasonable question. The durability of this thing is limited, mainly because the magic materials are consumed too quickly in this way, and we have also used some means to assist in strengthening, but it is expected that at most it will be able to penetrate about 150 to 180 rolling logs, and due to the strong recoil of the magic power, this ironwood structure device is also difficult to support, which needs to be improved later. ”

Deng Guinian did not avoid the shortcomings of this kind of magic equipment, "In addition, this kind of thing needs to be installed in advance, and it cannot be moved, so it is relatively limited." ”

All the generals present were silently estimating the actual combat power of the Falling Wood Tower.

If four or five of these towers were to be installed along the Gushi wall, they would basically cover the entire attack range of one wall.

Of course, a single wooden tower naturally cannot support the entire defense line, but there are many offensive weapons for the city defense system.

Bed crossbows, catapults, and stretch crossbows, plus archers, create a ladder-level striking surface, and this type of falling wooden tower fills the gap between long-range strike weapons such as the Jump, Bed Crossbow, and Catapult and weapons such as the Tension and Bow and Arrow.

At the same time, its unscrupulous attack angle can not only cause great damage to the attacker's formation, but also form a devastating blow to various siege weapons, which is particularly important.

Qin Zaidao and Gu Minghai could see their respective shock and joy in each other's eyes, with this weapon alone, at least Gushi City's city defense system could be strengthened a few points, plus the catapult designed by the military commander had also been improved, and the production process of the crossbow was also becoming more and more perfect, it can be said that Gushi City's defense capability was twice as strong as when the ant thieves besieged the city a month ago?

Even though the Caizhou Army is much stronger than the ant thieves in terms of combat effectiveness, the Gushi Army is also growing and strengthening rapidly.

The number of the Gushi Army has now reached 5,000 people, and aside from the 500 cavalry army, there are also 4,500 infantry troops, even if you remove the left, right, and rear battalions formed later, the tooth battalion, middle battalion, and front battalion of the Gushi Army already have considerable combat effectiveness, plus the two battalions of the Shenzhou Army that have been adjusted and adapted after a few days, it can be said that the combat effectiveness of the current Gushi Army has at least doubled compared with the original Gushi Army.

In this case, even if the Caizhou army attacked, it was not without the strength to fight.

"Also, the target of the Falling Wood Tower is too obvious, it is easy to become the target of the enemy's nest car and arrow tower, in addition, this kind of calligraphy instrument is exquisitely made, but if it is damaged a little bit, it will lose its function, so if the enemy has a master attack, it is easy to achieve the purpose of destruction. ”

Ding Man has also been thinking about this Falling Wood Tower, but he is thinking about how to deal with this thing if he is Caizhou Army, and he has already come up with several countermeasures for a while.

"That's right, the Falling Wood Tower does have such and such shortcomings and defects, and it is easy to be destroyed, but its power is also obvious to all, as for how to make up for the shortcomings, especially to give full play to its strengths, to avoid it from being destroyed by the enemy, I think it should be a problem for you commanders to consider. ”

Deng Guinian's words were full of pride and pride.

"And we also take into account that as soon as the Falling Wood Tower comes out, I am afraid that the enemy will take the destruction of it as the primary goal, you may have also seen that here we have set up two leather banners to prevent the attack of arrows and artillery, in addition, Miss Jing and Brother Boshan are also improving and making a magic crossbow, which is specially used to attack the strong in the Heavenly Realm, this magic crossbow has many drawbacks, but it is very suitable for this kind of ambush ,...... waiting for the rabbit type."

As soon as Luo Zhen beckoned, the eight strong crossbowmen demonstrated the modified Sky Flame strong crossbow and shoot, which also made Yang Kan, Ding Man and Guo Tai creepy.

This kind of magic crossbow is inconvenient to use and has a short range, but when used in such a narrow range of high-density and concentrated use, it is extremely lethal.

Especially if, according to what Deng Guinian said, with the goal of Luomu Tower, this kind of magic strong crossbow array is specially set up, and eight to twelve or even sixteen magic strong crossbowmen are used to ambush and shoot, I am afraid that one or two Heavenly Realm masters will attack, and they will all be hit.

Everyone returned to the city in a shock, and the magicians even prepared a feast of earth-based formations for these generals in the wilderness, but this feast was categorically stopped by Jiang Feng.

Enough is enough, there is no need to show anything more.

Sometimes it works better with some leeway.

In fact, the generals also realized this, and the Gushi Army was more prepared than they imagined, which made them both surprised and excited, and felt pressure.

The magicians can do so well and so well, so what about these well-deserved generals who have the responsibility to defend the territory?

Jiang Feng was very satisfied with the effect of this demonstration.

This is actually a double reed performed by him and Luo Zhen and Deng Guinian.

When he learned that the Caizhou Army was attacking on a large scale beyond expectations, Jiang Feng realized that it would definitely cause a huge impact and pressure on the high-level mentality of the entire Gushi Army.

Qin Zaidao, Gu Minghai and Huang Anjin, Yang Kan, Ding Man and Guo Tai, as well as Ju Shen, inevitably had to weigh whether the Gu Shijun could win this battle under such a very obvious situation.

The Caizhou Army is much stronger than the Gushi Army in terms of fighting will, experience, and even actual combat effectiveness, so why did the Gushi Army win this battle?

There must be something that shocks and touches these high-ranking officers, and they must realize that the Gushi Army is not without the power to fight back, and it has the same advantages that the Caizhou Army does not have, and it can also cause great damage to the Caizhou Army, and may even make the Caizhou Army unable to accept the damage, only in this way can they establish the confidence to win this battle.

Confidence plus strength is the basic guarantee for winning a war, and before, the Gushi Army actually had the strength of the First World War, but in terms of confidence, the new Gushi Army entangled by the three forces was actually not as good as the old Gushi Army after the previous battle with the ant thief, but after this demonstration, the gap between the new Gushi Army was glued together again.

However, Jiang Feng also knew that this was only temporarily glued together, not really melted into an iron plate, and in order to make them an iron plate, they also needed to repeatedly hammer and sharpen this piece of iron with gaps and impurities through this solid offensive and defensive battle.
