Zhang Jiashi didn't plan to use those simplified design siege vehicles. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 However, more than a ton of metal wrapped against the wood is not something that can be suspended by an ordinary design.

Dozens of bronze bars and corresponding bronze chains are designed to make it easier for such a cart frame to suspend the crashing wood, and to increase the destructive power of the collision wood to the city gate by inertia.

Although the speed of the rushing car was assisted by wheels, because of its own weight, it had to be slowly pulled by several oxen with the assistance of more than ten sets of weight-bearing wooden wheels wrapped in bronze.

The push of the twenty Qin troops did not make the speed of this rushing car improve in any way.

However, in the absence of a counterattack from the enemy, the rushing car, at a rather slow speed, was finally pushed in front of the wooden gate of the fence.

"Stop !!"

A captain in charge of observing the situation in front of him, he glanced at the door less than a meter or two later, and shouted to stop.

The slow speed of the rushing car quickly stopped.

"Everyone is ready to !!"

Under the command of a commander, the people inside the rushing car put their hands on the grip nailed to the crashing wood.

Zhang Jiashi did not choose the smooth cylindrical metal shape as the grip, but chose a U-shaped double-ended bronze bar that was more in line with mechanics, and polished it a little so that the hands of these Qin officers and soldiers would not be cut and then installed on these striking woods.

After taking a look at the robes in the rushing car that were ready, the chief shouted, "Prepare !! push !! hard."

Shortly after the long scream, the bumper pushed forward quickly.

And then, after feeling the reaction force coming from the grip, Shi Chang relaxed his strength, and when his arm was driven forward by inertia again, Shi Chang shouted loudly again: "Push !! hard"

After going down like this for the third time, he hit the wood and slammed into the gate.

"Boom!"

There was a dull thud from the gate of the wall.

Next, there was a continuous thump......

In fact, as long as the striking wood hits the middle of the gate, as long as the back is not filled with a large pile of debris, then the latch will be destroyed even if the main body of such a gate can withstand the force of the impact. Moreover, these specially trained officers were able to effectively and accurately determine whether the city gate was blocked or not. Because if the city gate is blocked, the impact of the wood will often send a greater force of shock.

After several impacts, the gate of the Zhuangzi wall began to deform and was slowly smashed open towards the middle.

......

The old man who was sent home naturally also heard the "dong dong" that was transmitted to the home and became more and more coherent.

He didn't know what the sound was, but the old man, who knew very well that it was not a good thing, had not thought about what he should do, and he heard the shouts of killing coming from outside.

The thirty Qin army shield bearers, who were originally serving as reserve cart drivers, quickly drew their equipped long swords, and then rushed to both sides of the rushing cart.

The gate was almost completely deformed, and it was only three or four hits away from being completely destroyed.

The Qin army in front of him quickly put down the shield, and then blocked in front of his body, bending his body slightly. After a while, these shield soldiers in front of them felt that the shield in their hands seemed to be a little heavier. They didn't care. For this is the case of the robe behind them, and the shield is placed diagonally above their shield.

This kind of combat method is a combat method improved by Zhang Jiashi with reference to the shield array of the Romans.

This shield array, in fact, is not perfect, after all, the essence of the shield array is a spear or a beryllium weapon that effectively uses stabbing methods, or is equipped with equipment such as a crossbow or javelin.

However, in Bai Qi's heart, such a battle formation, that is, when seizing the city gate, is more effective.

In fact, the reality of many siege battles is that there are very few examples of effective breakthrough of the city gate and the decision of victory or defeat.

After all, when there is no hope, or if the defenders have long been prepared to defend to the death, the city gates are often tightly blocked by a large number of various debris.

Therefore, a shield array like this, which seems to be quite effective, rarely has a chance to play its part.

In the discussion between Bai Qi and Zhang Jiashi, such a shield array is actually a formation that should not have much use, after being equipped with the standard long sword of the Qin army, the shield array can indeed effectively achieve both offense and defense, but you have to knock the city gate open.

And the shield array conceived by Bai Qi, the number of people and equipment are relatively strict. Just like a platoon, the platoon commander should be equipped with a hand crossbow that can be easily reloaded, and then shoot through the gap between the upper and lower shields.

The two commanders are responsible for attacking approaching enemies, and the two shieldmen are responsible for fighting defenses.

In Bai Qi's mind, the application range of the shield array should be very wide, except for the enemy with large equipment or a large number of chariots and knights, it is difficult for simple infantry to break through this kind of shield array with quite good offensive and defensive capabilities head-on, without paying a certain number of casualties.

Of course, if the shield array encounters something like a bed crossbow, the defensive effect of that shield is similar to that of none.

Zhang Jiashi is not without problems, that is, logically speaking, that kind of Macedonian spear seems to be better. However, Bai Qi said something that made Zhang Jiashi have to be silent: "That kind of spear is okay against the cavalry, but if you face an opponent like the Qin army, you use this kind of spear, it won't have much effect."

This situation, after Zhang Jiashi thought about it carefully, as Bai Qi said.

Because Zhang Jiashi is not unaware that the disadvantage of this super spear is that it can be easily cut by an iron sword. If you really use the corresponding equipment to fight against the Qin army, the Macedonian long-term soldiers, the small shield and the armor on their bodies will be difficult to effectively resist the Qin army's bows and crossbows.

......

And the gate of this Zhuangzi, the latch was finally broken after receiving more than a dozen heavy impacts.

After the chariot slowly retreated, among the dozens of Qin troops, the shield soldiers in the middle on both sides quickly couldn't fill the position that was originally occupied by the chariot.

Several shields, again forming a shield array.

"Forward !!"

After the commander of the team that should be in the shield team, that is, the commander of the rushing convoy, gave a loud order, the four shield soldiers in the middle first put their shields against the wooden door that had been slowly knocked open.

The shield hands on both sides continued to advance slowly in the form of arrows.

The gate was quickly opened by the shield soldiers, and in front of them were more than twenty Zhuang Ding with bows and arrows.

"Shoot !!"

After seeing the gate being pushed open, more than twenty Zhuang Ding shot their bows and arrows under the command of a burly man.

"Ah!!h

A shield man's shield was pierced by a crossbow, and the Qin soldier's wrist was pierced, wailing.

Before he could fall, he was pulled back into the ranks by the commander of the Qin army behind him, and a shield hand who was originally behind him quickly pressed the shield down, and then a shield man filled his place and blocked the shield on his head.

After seeing this scene, the commander of the Qin army at the back quickly waved his torch backwards, making a code signal that we needed the support of the crossbowmen.

The crossbowmen of the Qin army, who were about twenty people, rushed to the gate under the command of Shi Chang after seeing this signal.

The shields of several shield soldiers were again pierced by crossbow arrows, but the casualties were not too great. Because the penetrating power of these crossbows is not very good, as long as it does not directly penetrate the wrist part holding the shield, the body standing behind dozens of centimeters will rarely be shot by the crossbow.

The crossbowmen soon came to the front of the shield array, and after slowly raising the crossbows in the gap in the crowd, these Qin army shield men heard the order: "Get out of the way!!

The shield array was slowly vacated to the left or right.

"Whoosh......"

When the shieldmen heard the sound of the crossbow firing, the shieldmen moved their shields back to their original positions.

At the same time, a series of screams were heard.

Obviously, some of these farmers were shot with a crossbow.

Under several rounds of fire, the losses of Zhuang Ding were far greater than those of the Qin officers and soldiers who were wounded, but did not lose their lives.

And after the burly man saw this scene, his teeth itched with hatred, he directly waved his hand, and then in front of these shield soldiers, dozens of Zhuang Ding with various weapons in their hands poured out one after another.

The shield soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, slowly lowered their swords and waited for the next order.

"Everyone, rush !!"

The shield troops in front, after hearing this order, quickly scuffled with these Zhuang Ding who rushed over.

The weapons in these Zhuang Ding's hands are completely varied. Some people are even holding a kitchen knife.

For many days, he had practiced the use of shields and long swords to fight, and under the corresponding coordinated training, Zhuang Ding, who had not been effectively trained, soon became dead souls under the sword of the shield soldiers in front.

The shield men rushed forward for hand-to-hand combat, while the crossbowmen behind were not idle. Crossbowmen lined up in three columns with each other, in a formation that took turns firing, prepared to attack an enemy who was likely to break through the shield troops.

The shield soldiers in front of them were almost one-sided in their slaughter. However, the burly strong man made a move at this time.

The strong man who was using a bronze stick with a thick bowl mouth, after joining the battle, the two shield soldiers in the Qin army's shield team, who lacked a master, saw this scene and glanced at each other, and quickly rushed up together and launched an attack on this strong man.

It's just that the strength of this strong man is not comparable to that of two ordinary Qin officers and soldiers.

Before the two of them could touch each other, the opponent's bronze rod swept with a move, smashing the two Qin army shield soldiers who were hurriedly defending with giant shields, and the two of them with shields were directly smashed into the other people who were fighting.

The violent force made a few Qin Jun or Zhuang Ding, who were not lightly hit, can't help but suddenly spurt out a mouthful of blood.

As for the two Qin officers and soldiers who were smashed into the air?

After they twitched their bodies, they suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and there was no sound.

More and more Qin officers and soldiers, after solving their original opponents, also discovered this situation. They quickly found out about it.

However, this burly strong man was silent, quite calmly fighting with more and more Qin officers and soldiers.

Very few Qin officers and soldiers were his enemies, and most of the Qin army's shield soldiers lost their lives in the opponent's powerful blow.

Some people even had their shields and the wrists that held them smashed into bloody flesh......

However, the shield commander of the Qin army did not fight him, which is not to say that the other party is afraid of death, but in Zhang Jiashi's training, after knowing the importance of avoiding meaningless death, this commander loudly ordered the other shield soldiers under his command to retreat.

Perhaps, the strong man did not notice that more than a dozen crossbowmen had already aimed their crossbows at him at the entrance of the gate, which had become a little dark.

"Shoot !!"

Under the orders of the crossbowmen, the brawny man then heard the sound of crossbow arrows breaking through the air.

He quickly danced the bronze rod, and the first wave of crossbows was picked up by the other party.

However, he did not know that the terrible thing about this crossbow array was not the first shot, but almost non-stop shooting.

Because the crossbowmen are arranged in a "three-stage shot" formation, the one-time firepower projection may not be strong, but both the hit rate and the killing efficiency are much better than a single salvo.

After the second group of crossbowmen who were half-kneeling on the ground fired their crossbows, they had to deal with a strong man who was attacking from the left side of the Qin army, and then had three crossbows inserted into his body.

The strong man snorted, and after smashing the Qin soldier into the air, he quickly rushed towards the group of crossbowmen.

However, he had no idea that these crossbowmen would still have the ability to attack again.

There was another sound of several crossbows breaking through the air, and the strong man had to pick up a corpse on the ground with his feet to resist the crossbow.

However, these third batch of Qin army crossbowmen are basically composed of officers, and the crossbowmen officers who use crossbows are not very difficult to penetrate the bodies of two people at a distance of less than thirty meters.

After the third wave of crossbows was fired, the strong man threw down the corpse with a few crossbows in his hand. And the bronze armor in front of his body was quickly pulled out of the arrows, and a few blood holes were made that flowed blood.

The crossbow of the Qin army may be difficult to effectively put people to death directly in some places. Especially against enemies with better Tegues.

However, although this strong man knows that he is very strong just by looking at his appearance, such a song cannot make up for the problem of his body losing too much blood due to too many wounds.

What's even worse is that the first wave of backward crossbowmen has been reloaded again.

The strong man who gave up the meat shield also saw the crossbowmen of the Qin army who appeared in a bright place, but he found that his body was weakened due to the rapid loss of blood.

The strong man who couldn't move his body effectively, after a few, oh, no, it was a dozen Qin army crossbowmen who shot the crossbow again, the body was inserted again with eight crossbow bolts, and finally fell to the ground like a mountain of human flesh.

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

The battle in front of Zhuangzi continued. But the back door, which is only a small road behind Zhuangzi, is slowly opened.

Several men on horseback rushed out of this place in a state of confusion.

However, they didn't expect that there were actually more than fifty Qin army knights waiting for them.

"Let's rush over!!" said the middle-aged man who threw his father to the ground and spared his father.

The old man silently watched the knights who slowly lit the torches, and his face was as dead as ashes.

The few people who rushed out were the head of this powerful Zhuangzi and his sons.

The old man, who knew that even if they went together, they would not be able to change the result, gritted his teeth and said: "If you military masters open the net, the old man is willing to hand over these things outside his body to you." ”

The knight commander of the Qin army on the opposite side, after hearing the words, said coldly: "Don't say these useless, Lord Xiahou just said, if you come out of here, you will be killed!"

Knowing that he shouldn't talk nonsense, the knight of the Qin army waved his hand downward......

......

The sky was slightly bright, and the morning sun was already releasing the bright light of the morning sun from the east.

And after Xiahou Ying entered the Zhuangzi, which had already controlled the survivors in the Zhuangzi, he nodded to some of the people behind him who looked like scribes.

The role of these people is to take stock of the village's belongings.

At this time, a group of knights slowly rode their horses from the passage in front of him, and some knights had heads with different expressions on their waists, but they were obviously dead.

Some people have heads where the blood has clotted. However, some people's heads are still slowly dripping with specks of blood.

Xiahou Ying looked at the head of one of the gray-haired old men, he saw the other party's resentment, horror and seemed to have some regret on his face, Xiahou Ying sighed silently: "Don't blame us, this is the result of your own self-defeat." ”

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

A day later, Chen Ping's county guard mansion gathered many family heads who had been invited to the banquet that day, as well as some people who had heard the wind and hoped to fish in troubled waters.

Their purpose is naturally the things that Chen Ping said to them.

The fall of the three powerful Zhuangzi, such news is naturally concealed but cannot be investigated by people with a heart.

Unlike Xiahou Ying, who still arrested a large number of Zhuang Min Qianshou who were arranged to go to Anshan to mine, Wang Ling and Duo Bu have well implemented the law of what is called Lian Sitting.

After the two captured Zhuangzi, except for some relatively sturdy and young men, women, and children, these Zhuangmin entered the Qin army of Zhuangzi, and they were not as easy to talk as the officers and soldiers under the command of Xiahou Ying.

Of course, those who survive will be arranged to go to the Anshan area to dig up iron ore like the people escorted back by Xiahou Ying.

In the hearts of Duo Bu and Wang Ling, such a treatment plan is not bad. And Chen Ping didn't approve of them being wiped out. However, if some people show resentment, then they don't mind letting the officers and soldiers under their command move their muscles.

The properties of the three Haoqiang in some towns and villages were quickly sold by Chen Ping, except for those who fished in troubled waters, as Chen Ping said, the families who went to the county guard mansion all got a relatively satisfactory result.

Of course, because of some factors, Chen Ping did not fulfill the military merits or something, but took out a part of the income this time to reward the officers and soldiers who went on the expedition.

And Chen Ping looked at Xiao He, who looked a little excited, and smiled indifferently: "You know now that these people are still quite rich." However, since the other party sent it to the door, it is not possible for us to do nothing. They are looking for their own death, so don't blame Ping, they are ruthless. ”

Xiao He looked at the trace of murderous intent in Chen Ping's eyes, and sighed slightly......
