Zhuang Guang followed Nangong Period to act together this time, but it was just a temporary transfer. www.biquge.info.vd.mCopy this address to browse hp://%77%77%77%2e%62%69%71%69%2e%6d%65/ Such a thing also illustrates a situation from the side, that is, Zhang Jiashi is now basically able to mobilize troops in the vicinity are gathered in Hangu Pass.

......

The current defense capability of Hangu Pass is not as good as that of Huan Feng a few months ago, when Huan Feng took over the defense, and soon after that, he fought with the Chu army, after all, after such a period of operation, almost all the equipment originally equipped on Hangu Pass was lost. When Zhang Jiashi led the army south, he did not send too much heavy equipment to accompany the army.

Although in the days that followed, Zhang Jiashi quickly ordered the Qin troops in Jiuyuan County and other places to mobilize some equipment to support as much as possible, but such an approach was more of a drop in the bucket. Because Yang Wengzi's department stationed in Jiuyuan County, as well as the county guards and county captains of other counties on the border of the Great Wall, they also have bitterness and can't say it.

Compared with the area west of Yanmen County, they mainly relied on the military construction of Guangyang County to supply weapons, but relied more on the supply of the Great Qin General Military Construction in Xianyang to maintain their own equipment consumption.

In the later period of Hu Hai's reign, this situation became very bad, especially after Zhang Han officially sent troops to Guanzhong, the supply of weapons made by the general army of Great Qin became less and less for the defenders of northern Xinjiang.

In fact, Zhang Jiashi also knew about this situation, but he was forced to give this order out of desperation.

Although the Great Qin General Military Arsenal in the northwest of Xianyang has resumed a certain amount of production, this production volume is more about the resumption of the production of light weapons than the production of such large equipment.

Zhang Jiashi knows that if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. It is still very risky to defend Hangu Pass with the heroic battles of the personnel under his command, as well as the danger of the pass itself. He had to change his mind, that is, some time ago, that is, a period of time before Zhang Jiashi sent troops to Jiaxian, Zhang Jiashi gritted his teeth and gave an order to Pu Shan, the person in charge of Jixian Military Construction, and Mo Shu, the person in charge of Liaodong Military Construction. That is, to give priority to the production of heavy equipment of the corresponding specifications of the city, and give priority to the supply of Jiuyuan County and other places, and then the equipment in Jiuyuan County and other places will be dismantled and transported south and then arranged.

Under normal circumstances, Zhang Jiashi would not give this kind of order, because it would cost too much money. There is a saying in later generations, that is, when a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold. And now to make this amount of equipment, Zhang Jiashi's expenditure is quite huge.

It is true that in the areas under the inherent control of the Liaodong Army, such as Liaodong County, Liaoxi County, the northern part of Gwangyang County, and the Korean region, commercial taxes have become the main source of finance for his jurisdiction, but to make such a number of instruments, these taxes alone are not enough, and Zhang Jiashi himself is prepared to hemorrhage.

After all, he has his own money, and this kind of thing can't save money. Even if this kind of thing didn't bring him anything, he had to bleed.

However, Zhang Jiashi's arrangement can be said to take time to implement. After all, even if it is made in Liaodong, the output of equipment in this area is not too much, just like the new bed crossbow that can be used with that kind of short spear, which is about five a day.

And the situation in Hangu Pass obviously can't wait for this situation, Zhang Jiashi may regret that he still underestimated the destructive power of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao to Guanzhong.

At the very least, if Zhang Jiashi could know that the Great Qin General Military Construction had fallen into such a situation, he would definitely mobilize a large number of skilled craftsmen from Liaodong Military Manufacturing, and after controlling the surrounding areas of Xianyang, he would directly use these craftsmen to fully implement Liaodong's own weapon system in the Great Qin General Military Construction.

............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................

The Qin army troops under Zhuang Guang's command now have basically become joint forces, after all, the source of these officers and soldiers almost includes several military systems under Zhang Jiashi's command.

Liaodong Army, Northern Frontier Army, and the Central Army units of the Great Qin Empire.

It can be said that, in addition to the Southern Xinjiang Army, Zhang Jiashi can now be regarded as controlling several major military forces in the territory of the Great Qin Empire.

But Zhang Jiashi will not be happy for such a situation, after all, in such a situation, it seems that the lineup is very prosperous. However, discerning people know a fact, that is, in addition to the relatively complete structure of the Liaodong Army, the officers and soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army have long been mixed with the Central Army Corps with very heavy losses in such a place.

Otherwise, Zhuang Guang has quite a headache, that is, these "old soldiers" of the Central Army will not listen to his command so smoothly.

For Zhuang Guang, there is another problem that makes him even more headache at the moment, that is, with the assistance of the lack of heavy defense equipment, the arrows fired by the troops under his command with a large number of bows and crossbows will certainly bring considerable damage to the coalition officers and soldiers who rushed over like a tide.

But in the face of the opponent's desperate charge, this kind of attack seems to have no effect at all.

And this method also has a big weakness, that is, the opponent's siege equipment, this kind of attack alone, but it can't stop the opponent's advance.

"Damn! General Huan and General Ruan haven't replied yet!"

Zhuang Guang could be regarded as roaring out such a sentence, if they had sufficient equipment, they would not have to take the lives of many officers and soldiers to withstand the offensive of the Chu army in the previous battle.

What's even worse is that the Chu army's boarding car, the crash and the crossbowmen below, this threat is not something he can easily solve.

In fact, it would be better for the knights to harass these troops for a while, waiting for an opportunity to destroy the opponent's siege engines. But to do that now is undoubtedly a dream.

Because a few months ago, after Huan Feng saw the number of troops of the coalition army, he had already blocked the city gate passage of Hangu Pass.

Such an approach means that the other party is basically unable to break through the city gate from the east, and they are also unable to effectively counterattack such a situation.

Many of the crossbowmen, as well as the shieldmen who were responsible for the cover, were killed by the arrows fired by the increasingly dense crossbows of the coalition forces.

At present, although the quality of the coalition army is uneven, the bows and crossbows used by many crossbowmen are at least the bows and crossbows used by the county soldiers, and the crossbowmen of the Chu army are equipped with a large number of excellent bows and crossbows obtained from the Qin army after they were buried alive in Thorn Plain.

Therefore, in this regard, the Qin army troops guarding the pass do not necessarily occupy too many advantages, and even because of the difference in numbers, they are at a relative disadvantage.

Faced with such a situation, Zhuang Guang himself wanted to break Zhang Han's body into pieces, but at the moment, he couldn't do this, and second, he still had to command the troops and hold on until the reinforcements arrived.

Seeing that more and more officers and soldiers under his command were wounded or killed in battle, Zhuang Guang did not have too many troops to mobilize.

After inflicting thousands of casualties on the charging coalition forces, Zhuang Guang's officers and soldiers also lost nearly one-seventh, and what was even worse was that the coalition troops stepped on the elongated ladders and began to carry out the first echelon of the city.

This kind of elongated ladder, many of which are weapons and equipment connected by one or two conventional ladders, is not very good in terms of stability. And the ladder itself can be easily vandalized.

Many Qin officers and soldiers waved the swords in their hands to directly cut off the extra position of this kind of ladder, and then several Changge soldiers of the Qin army directly stretched this kind of ladder outward.

In many cases, this practice does not actually have much effect, as such ladders often have metal hooks that hook the walls.

But during this period of time, many of these higher-quality ladders of the coalition forces were lost in previous battles, and it was also not possible to make this kind of thing in a short period of time.

Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the coalition, especially the non-Chu officers and soldiers, were more likely to use these relatively primitive ladders to ascend the city.

Once this kind of ladder is propped up in the opposite direction, then the fate of the officers and soldiers who are waiting for these climbing ladders is to fall directly to the ground from a height of several meters or even more than ten meters.

Many Qin officers and soldiers defending the city could see from the battlements on the side that the coalition officers and soldiers who flew out backwards fell to the ground, but they did not hesitate anything, but kept shooting arrows from their hands at the coalition officers and soldiers gathered under the city, or throwing the stones in their hands under the city wall.

There were still more than a dozen heavy bed crossbows brought from Xianyang City in Hangu Pass, and this kind of weapon was rarely placed on the city wall, and a large number of finished products were stored in the arsenal, which was also burned in the fire of Xianyang City.

In such a situation, Zhang Jiashi had to dismantle all these things and transport them to Hangu Pass to assemble them again, after all, it is better to count on this number of bed crossbows to guard Xianyang City, it is useless at all, and when it is used on Hangu Pass, it is better to use some of them.

The main targets of these bed crossbows are naturally not those who are growing more and more coalition officers and soldiers, but those building cars that are getting closer and closer.

This kind of building car is obviously also increased, after all, the height of the city wall of Hangu Pass itself is much higher than the ordinary city wall, and ordinary building cars are useless in front of the city wall of this height.

When these building cars came to a distance of about 50 meters in front of Hangu Pass, many Qin officers and soldiers risked their lives to push these building cars out of the wreckage of the city gate tower, which had long been in ruins.

The height of this kind of building cart is even higher than the height of the city wall of Hangu Pass, but the crossbowmen on this kind of building cart have long been almost lost in their shooting with the crossbowmen of the Qin army defending the city.

It's not that this type of cart does not allow infantry to provide cover for archers, but it is also hardly a sturdy one. In such a situation, the roof of such a building car cannot carry much weight.

Therefore, more of these coalition crossbowmen can only be regarded as death.

After all, what they were facing were basically Qin officers and soldiers from the same shooting angle, and they didn't need to take too much risk and shoot towards the city.

In this case, some people are still shot, which is inevitable, but more people focus their shooting on the crossbowmen of these buildings, after all, they are more threatening, which many crossbowmen can think of.

The planks of some of the wagons are gradually burned by the ignited rockets, but more often, many of them are protected by leather covers connected by pieces of cowhide, and it doesn't matter if the cowhide covers on the outside are burned out, because there are not many places that are actually hit by rockets.

Of course, there are some special circumstances, that is, the leather cover of some building cars burns at the same time, and some of the hemp ropes that fix the structure of the building car are ignited.

Once a node is damaged, the structure above the hemp rope that the tower car is burned off is easy to collapse directly.

In the first batch of building cars, a joint above a building car that should be about eight meters away from the ground was burned out, and the building car that lost the stability of the structure began to tilt above this part, and more than a dozen coalition officers and soldiers above this height gradually lost their balance and fell to the ground.

Naturally, the bed crossbow was not used against these rudimentary things, but against some building cars that had been forged from metal to have the appearance of a metal plate.

This kind of building car, the general rocket will not play a role. However, the bed crossbow can use a more penetrating crossbow, and it is also designed to deal with this kind of building car, to deal with this kind of "culprit" that was almost broken by the coalition forces in the previous two times.

After this kind of bed crossbow came to their combat position, the officers and soldiers who operated the bed crossbow were arranged in groups of three under the cover of shield soldiers and arranged the corresponding horizontal firing formation.

Zhang Jiashi also has a certain number of this kind of bed crossbow in Liaodong County, but Zhang Jiashi knows one thing very well, that is, the cost of these bed crossbows is very high.

Because this in itself can be considered a kind of trap crossbow.

......

How practical this kind of crossbow is, since Zhang Jiashi doesn't think it's easy to use, it's hard to think that this kind of crossbow is completely useless.

Because this kind of crossbow presents a facet rather than a front, this design is more important to allow the crossbow to be able to jam the floor car baffle better after shooting through the building car baffle instead of being pulled out from the shooting position.

In order to strengthen this effect, there is a bracket design in the middle of the crossbow that allows the inside of the crossbow to coincide with the opposite direction of the face, so that the fixing effect of the crossbow is strengthened.

Along with this, the crossbow itself is connected to a rope at one end, and the end of the rope is so that the crossbow itself does not directly penetrate the target.

Then the crossbowmen who operate the bed crossbow will be able to pull the rope hard and turn the car on its side.

In such a situation, Zhang Jiashi believes that there are three reasons why it is not easy to use:

First, this kind of bed crossbow itself does not conform to the current production model of the Liaodong Army, after all, this kind of bed crossbow is the original product of the Great Qin Empire, and Zhang Jiashi does not want to produce it himself, and it is not universal.

Second, the structure of this crossbow is quite complex, and the cost expenditure is mainly the internal design of the front of this crossbow. Zhang Jiashi, who uses a large number of infusion methods to produce weapons, although he also has plans to produce Seiko weapons, but such semi-consumables are also incompatible with the production system that Zhang Jiashi is now choosing.

The third reason, and arguably the most important, is that Zhang Jiashi has now installed a large number of barbed crossbows, which may not be as useful as this rather complex thing, but in many ways, this kind of crossbow is undoubtedly more useful.

In this case, Zhang Jiashi sent these bed crossbows over, which is also a plan, that is, to make the best use of these bed crossbows at the end.

......

"Shoot !!"

Under more and more orders to shoot, the Qin soldiers operating the noose quickly released the transmitter of the bed crossbow.

A dozen crossbows flew swiftly towards their target.

If there were still people standing above these cars at such a time, then they would have seen that behind the crossbow, there were ropes connected to them.

Soon, this kind of crossbow easily shot through the metal plate that was not too thick, and after the crossbow pulled the rope, and even the bed crossbow itself was pulled, the dozen officers and soldiers in front quickly pulled the rope on the ground, and then kept moving backwards.

This method also makes this crossbow have to face a situation, that is, this kind of crossbow cannot shoot from all directions, but can only carry out a collective attack on one target from one place. Because this in itself is a mechanical limitation.

No one can pull each other in two directions, with roughly the same force, that's the truth.

Soon, under the pull of the officers and soldiers, even a building car that someone rushed out and put down the floor slab, he could feel the building car under his feet, gradually turning to the side.

This also shows that this tactic cannot be said to be too effective, but it cannot be said that it is useless at all.

Several building cars gradually tilted, but the quality of this building car itself is also very heavy, and it is obviously impossible to directly turn these building cars over with the pull of twenty or thirty people.

However, at such a time, what these officers and soldiers saw was that more and more people rushed to their front or side, grabbed the rope, and then one of the officers and soldiers said loudly: "If you don't want to die, hurry up and pull it!!"

Many Qin officers and soldiers who had originally pulled the rope woke up like a dream, and then in such a situation, more than fifty people worked together to make this metal building car to the side and gradually fall to the ground.

"Let go of !!"

Many experienced officers and soldiers also shouted out such a sentence loudly while letting go of their hands, because they knew very well that once they didn't have time to let go, they might be taken to the ground!

The chief who was in charge of operating the bed crossbow quickly used his sword to cut the end of the rope connecting the bed crossbow.

There is no doubt whether the bed crossbow will be pulled away, but once the bed crossbow is pulled away, the Qin officers and soldiers who have not had time to react in front will definitely be unlucky.

At the very least, even if you don't get killed by the bed crossbow, you have to break a few bones......

......

At this time, Han Xin went to the wall of Hangu Pass, and what he saw was a situation that could still be controlled......
