Chapter 41: Guan Long Qin Feng 4

readx;?? At nearly eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Jiashi finally made a decision, that is, to order the troops to attack the Great Wall. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info.d.m

Of course, Zhang Jiashi thought of a very new way to play, that is, he gave up the use of gunpowder packs that did not have the advantage of range, but concentrated these gunpowder packs in the crash and used them.

Originally, Zhang Jiashi didn't want to make such an arrangement that was more like sending him to death. However, as far as Zhang Jiashi said to have investigated, Deng Mao did not concentrate a large number of troops near this Great Wall pass, but stationed his troops separately.

Under such circumstances, Zhang Jiashi quickly made a decision after returning to his camp.

After all, Deng Mao's arrangement is more about allowing the troops to improve their sustained combat capability under the premise of rotating troops through the protection of the city.

Under such circumstances, after discussing with Chen Ping and others, Zhang Jiashi quickly came to a conclusion, that is, if he did not transfer Deng Mao as a reserve force, it would be a very big trouble for Jiang Lie and others.

Jiang Lie's troops also had more than 20,000 people, but it was not necessarily possible for more than 20,000 people to easily defeat the main force transferred here in the entire Shangjun region.

Once Jiang Lie's troops are besieged, waiting for the fate of more than 20,000 people under Jiang Lie's command will be a catastrophe.

With such a premise, of course, it is impossible for Zhang Jiashi to follow the original plan, but only mobilize the corresponding troops to participate in the attack.

But this does not mean that Zhang Jiashi will also be completely suppressed, because with such an approach, how many soldiers and horses will be lost by the troops under Zhang Jiashi's command is something that only God knows.

......

However, since it is to mobilize the opponent's troops, it is natural to let the other side have such a judgment, that is, they have to transfer the follow-up troops.

Even if most of his troops joined the attack, it would probably be impossible for the other side to make such a transfer arrangement. You must know that the height of the Great Wall in Shangjun is not comparable to the section of the Great Wall dominated by the Great Wall of Yanguo in Liaodong County.

Therefore, in the final analysis, Zhang Jiashi does not know how effective such an idea can be, and it can be said that he is very uneasy in his heart.

After all, Bai Qi is not very optimistic about Zhang Jiashi's tactics. Because in such a situation, how effective Zhang Jiashi's idea can be, more importantly, it is something that only God knows.

However, in such a situation, Zhang Jiashi could not retreat. If Jiang Lie and the others were to be solved by Deng Mao in Shangjun, then it would be more of a very influential matter.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Among the troops ordered by Zhang Jiashi to attack, many heavy infantry escorted the crashed vehicles that had been urgently modified, and slowly moved forward. The Panzer Division looked at the iron boxes that were placed together in the crash, and the bags of sand placed under the metal shed at the top, and he was very helpless.

Of course, after removing the crash wood and the corresponding equipment, the weight of this crash was reduced a lot, but in order to strengthen some parts, and after placing the sand and those black powder bags, Zhang Jiashi knew very well that this kind of crash could be pushed by dozens of people.

And what makes Zhang Jiashi even more helpless is that the effect of this heavy crash should not be too good. In order to avoid being easily destroyed by the enemy's catapult, Zhang Jiashi, who strengthened the roof and carried out the construction of corresponding protective facilities, of course, also knew that this design also had an impact on the corresponding effect.

However, things have come to such a point, and Zhang Jiashi knows very well that he has no turning back.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Bursts of horns began to blow.

When the troops were advancing to a predetermined distance under the command of their own officers, Zhang Jiashi saw the officers and soldiers under his command getting closer and closer to the Great Wall, and did not show the slightest panic.

He didn't know how many of them would survive such a battle, and he didn't know if his envisioned tactics would succeed.

It's just that he didn't think too much, and now at such a time, he can't be allowed to think too much.

After the troops were able to swim across the river in this way, the infantry units were responsible for assembling defenses in front of the enemy attack, while the other units were more responsible for reassembling the disassembled parts.

This method is more created by the forces of Liaodong County, and it is not effective for some building carts and heavier ones, because the crossbow chariot alone cannot directly transport a stand of the length of the building chariot.

Zhang Jiashi also did not think about making these building cars modular disassembled, but after many failed experiments, Zhang Jiashi could only give up this idea.

In the case of a crash that has been temporarily remodeled, more metal is replaced with wood to strengthen the load-bearing capacity, so that the weight of the entire crash car is reduced a lot. Many parts that are not needed have been removed during the first disassembly.

Zhang Jiashi rode on the red cloud, looked at the range of the Great Wall City, slowly raised his hand, and then waved it downward.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The chariot drummer, located in the second row, beat the rhythm of the leather drum, which represents the attack.

More than 20,000 troops of the Liaodong Army or the Northern Xinjiang Army Corps in front of them quickly moved forward.

At the forefront were the heavy infantry units of the Liaodong Army, the second row were the crossbowmen responsible for fire suppression, the third row was the heavy infantry, and the fourth row were the crossbowmen.

This kind of cascading battle formation is more of a covering firepower for the siege troops. Among the troops under Zhang Jiashi, the proportion of strong crossbowmen has not been too high. Therefore, this method made Zhang Jiashi have to continue to use it.

Some distance behind the first team's battle formation was a queue of dozens carrying ladders. And between these queues, there is often a crash.

Behind this second queue are the crossbow chariots characteristic of the Liaodong Army and the various chariot units of the Northern Xinjiang Army.

Although Zhang Jiashi now controls almost the entire defensive line in the north of the Northern Xinjiang Army, in the case of time urgency, Zhang Jiashi does not have enough time, as well as the Liaodong Military Construction and Jixian Military Construction, which are the core weapons production core of the Liaodong Army forces, have sufficient production capacity to support large-scale redressing.

Therefore, it is more of a helpless thinking to have to let these troops continue to use their original weapons and corresponding equipment to fight.

In addition to the Liaodong Army under the command of Zhang Jiashi, the only troops that could carry out a large number of rearmaments were Wang Lijun and the Qin troops left behind in Hengshan County and Taiyuan County by Wang Chang and Wang Yuan.

Of course, these replaced equipment were also assigned by Zhang Jiashi to the remaining Northern Frontier Army troops to deal with possible battles against the Donghu or Huns.

......

In the midst of the drums and calls for the attack, the troops under Zhang Jiashi's command advanced to about 500 meters away from the Great Wall, and then assembled the corresponding formation, covering the crossbowmen behind them to continue to advance.

As they continued to advance to an area of about four hundred and fifty meters, the Shangjun soldiers on the Great Wall attacked them with strong crossbowmen.

From time to time, there were bursts of crossbows falling from the sky. However, under the advance of the Roman-style phalanx of the Liaodong Army, the trouble caused by the strong crossbowmen of the Shangjun soldiers to the advancing troops was not a big deal.

After all, in such a range, the effect that these strong crossbows can play will not be too great.

However, this does not mean that the officers and soldiers under Zhang Jiashi's command have to endure the attacks that the other side will bring some lethal injuries from time to time.

After advancing to a distance of about 350 meters from the Great Wall, the strong crossbowmen of the Liaodong Army also began to launch a counterattack.

From time to time, people were wounded or killed by various bows and arrows. Many of the heavy infantry of the Liaodong Army, even the bed crossbow iron axe fired by the Shangjun soldiers on the Great Wall, after being shot through the shield by the opponent, directly penetrated the body, and flew with another heavy infantry who could not react behind them.

Very often, these heavy infantry simply did not have time to react.

"......" looked at the battle situation on the front line with obvious tragic wounds, Zhang Jiashi hated it in his heart. But in such a situation, it was impossible for Zhang Jiashi to order the troops to retreat like this.

Because the whole army has already begun to move, in such a situation because the casualties began to increase and the order was ordered to retreat, once he, the commander-in-chief, gave this order, then he did not have to fight for the world.

He clenched his fists tightly and shook his head helplessly.

And Chen Ping saw Zhang Jiashi's situation and stepped on Zhang Jiashi gently.

The stunned Zhang Jiashi looked at Chen Ping, only to see Chen Ping shaking his head slightly at him: "Your Majesty, this is a battle, if even the Emperor himself is shaken, then what can you do with us?"

Chen Ping's words made Zhang Jiashi suddenly wake up.

Chen Ping is right, he is no longer the person who has nothing, nor is he the former general of the Great Qin Empire, but a king who inherits the will of the first emperor and wants to support the Great Qin.

......

"Rush, !!"

The troops on the front line and the Shangjun soldiers on the Great Wall entered a fierce firefight, and the officer in charge of commanding the ladder soldiers quickly gave the order to charge.

Dozens of ladders and the officers and soldiers responsible for operating these ladder carts quickly pushed the cloud body carts, and the Qin officers and soldiers who used their shields not to block the arrows shot down from the city continued to push forward.

The arrows in the sky became more and more dense, and many times, it was not a very strange thing for a Cloud Ladder to hear several screams in a row behind him.

But in such a situation, many Qin officers and soldiers with shields in their hands would quickly fill the vacancies left by the dead or wounded in battle, and continue to charge with others.

Arrows and arrowheads were falling from the sky, or large rocks that could break a ladder and kill people in one fell swoop.

More and more Qin officers and soldiers quickly filled the vacancies left behind by the comrades who could be called bloody.

Their purpose was to put the ladder on the Great Wall and then seize it.

Zhang Jiashi himself knows very well that in a certain aspect, such an arrangement is more of a tactic to cover his next main purpose. But in a sense, on the premise that acting is to do a full set, Zhang Jiashi will not let Deng Mao and others easily see what his purpose is.

After the ladders were quickly manipulated, thrown up, and fixed to the edge of the battlements of the city wall, one by one, the ladder warriors quickly used their small shields to defend against the stones or other attacks that fell from above, and kept climbing upwards.

However, at such a time, it is difficult for the shield to pour boiling oil or other hot liquid. Even if a Qin army officer is good at parrying with a shield, and can endure the severe pain caused by the arm or arm part that the shield does not protect, but the finger is burned, not many people can endure it.

From time to time, there were Qin officers and soldiers screaming and falling to the ground, and from time to time, Qin officers and soldiers who climbed the ladder were thrown out of the wood or wolf tooth slap and other things, and were directly seriously injured or killed.

However, many follow-up Qin officers and soldiers did not give up the attack when the ladder was not broken, but continued to climb the ladder.

The arrows in the sky are getting denser and denser, but the long-range troops of the Shangjun soldiers who can counter the crossbowmen of the Liaodong Army under the city are also in the first arrowhead, and they have paid a considerable price.

On the edge of the Great Wall, on the beacon tower, you can even see the crossbowmen of the Shangjun soldiers whose bodies were shot by several arrows, lying in wait on the battlements.

Of course, Zhang Jiashi didn't expect his troops to be able to climb the city with a ladder so easily, but had another plan.

In a sense, these officers and soldiers under their command in order to attract the attention of the county soldiers defending the city are in many cases equivalent to cannon fodder.

As far as the officers and men of Liaodong are concerned, they may not have such a feeling. But Chen Ping, Sun Po and others are very clear about the meaning behind Zhang Jiashi's order.

"Now, let the troops move. ”

Zhang Jiashi's sentence refers to those crashed cars that have been modified, and they can act.

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

What kind of calculation did Zhang Jiashi's battle plan have?

What he hoped was to use the power of the explosion of dozens of black powder packets to severely damage the walls of the Great Wall and even blow the city gates open.

Of course, such an idea, Bai Qi did not think it would succeed. Because of the explosive power of these black powders, it is very difficult to shake the walls of the Great Wall.

It's not that Bai Qi thinks that the Great Wall is too strong, but in such a situation, no matter how much kinetic energy of black powder is, it is not easy to shake the relatively solid foundation of the Great Wall.

Bai Qi's idea was right.

After paying the price of two or three crashing cars being destroyed by stones thrown by the stone throwers on the city walls, the first wave of rushing cars quickly separated some distance after approaching the city gates.

One crashed directly under the city walls, and the other crashed more than fifty meters to the left.

There was the sound of falling debris stones from the roof of the shed, but for these Qin officers and soldiers who pushed the crash, their task could be said to be over.

They all drew their long swords at their waists, and under the order of a Qin army commander, these Qin officers and soldiers left one after another, and then left the vicinity of this rushing car.

They didn't know why there was such an order before they acted, but they didn't violate it either.

After everyone had left, the chief took out the flint and steel in his arms and lit the oilcloth torch that had been glued to the side.

The slowly rising flame, under this long operation, lit a rope that was fixed next to the torch.

The chief was slightly stunned when he saw that the rope was actually burning like this, but he did not forget one situation, that is, how far he ran after lighting the rope.

Although he didn't know why his five hundred lords would remind him of this, he still ran away.

After more than twenty seconds, he saw why his chief would give such an order.

Because of the loud sound of thunder, and a strong tremor from the ground, he couldn't help but look back.

The rushing car had been torn apart by a huge fireball that had risen up, and it had become scattered fragments.

And the fireballs that rose up were even higher than the height of the city walls.

After a while, he felt another violent tremor coming, but he soon noticed that there seemed to be something unusual near the city gates.

That is, there is a clear crack above the passage of the city gate at the city gate, which is blocked by the city gate.

Obviously, although the attack just now, although it did not bring heavy damage to the city gate, in many ways, compared to his same attack just now, it was indeed much more effective to blast in that position.

The defense capability of the Great Wall is of course quite good, but even Zhang Jiashi ignores a situation, that is, in such a sunken space, it will be more effective to blast.

This is also the same principle as why some fortified areas are blasted, small holes will be drilled first, and then explosives will be inserted directly before blasting.

In a sense, this blasting effect has become the core of the vigorous research of the Qin army troops under Zhang Jiashi and the corresponding personnel.

After sending troops to Hangu Pass in the future, the casualties of the Qin army's attack on the city were also reduced considerably, thanks more to the results of this research on the effects of explosions.

......

In fact, the effect of the rushing car full of black powder packets that was detonated in the passage of the city gate was not mainly based on a certain degree of damage to the main structure of the city gate tower, but in such a shock, after Deng Mao fell to the ground because of unstable standing, he never thought that the Liaodong Army would have such a means.

He had to admit that he really underestimated the strength of the Liaodong Army. From the beginning of the battle to the present, the Liaodong Army's bow and crossbow advantage is actually greater than the configuration of their Shangjun troops.

Although the officers and soldiers defending the city did not say that they were powerless to fight back, purely from the casualties of the crossbowmen, it was obvious that the crossbowmen under his command suffered greater casualties.

Under such a premise, Deng Mao had to order follow-up troops to support.

It's just that he soon discovered a situation, that is, the Liaodong Army actually sent two rushing vehicles again, and the target was actually the city gate tower under his feet.

The obvious cracked stones on the ground showed that these ghost things were very difficult to mess with, and he couldn't help but order: "Everyone will focus on solving each other's !! for me."

But it was too late, after the detonation of the third rushing car, such a gate of the Great Wall of Shangjun, and finally in the fourth loud sound like thunder, because the overall structural fulcrum was destroyed, a considerable part of the city gate tower collapsed directly......

Deng Mao felt a sudden emptiness under his feet in the fourth loud bang, and after he came back to his senses, he quickly activated his internal force, and before falling to the ground, he barely came to a "safe landing." ”

And what he saw was that many unfriendly eyes were looking at him, and the source of these eyes was the Qin officers and soldiers who ran out of the rushing car......
