After listening to it for a while, a smile appeared on Fang Ruitao's face, listening to the voices in those directions, the shouting and killing of the two gates in the northeast never meant to approach, it was obviously just a bluff, but the west gate was really fighting.

"Catapult projection, hurry. Xiao Jinchen shouted loudly, directing the catapult arranged on the earthen platform behind him to launch stones. Zheng Guang is also a well-behaved man, and this time he sent a group of pony bandits who followed him, and asked them to travel in front of them in order to obtain information about the defenders. But he never thought that he was still six hundred meters away from the city wall, and he had already been attacked.
After a few days of preparation, the number of catapults of the defenders has doubled, and the density of rockfalls at this time has naturally increased greatly, and the horse bandits who smashed them have suffered heavy losses. Before they could get close to the edge of the city, the bandits were demoralized. Seeing that he didn't find out the reality of the other party at all, he actually lost so many people, and Zheng Guang, who was angry, scolded his mother directly.
"The brigade pressed, pulled me out of formation, and brought enough ladders. Zheng Guang decided to rely on his numerical superiority to rush through the catapult's attack area, while using a loose formation to reduce casualties, and the bandits, all of whom were seasoned veterans, could see the catapult's flaws at a glance.
The brigade of bandits charged towards the city walls, but the catapult attack was ineffective due to the large area and the number of people who had pulled out. After rushing over a distance of 400 meters, the horse bandits suddenly found that the boulder would no longer fall on their heads, and it was obvious that this weapon could not be far but not close, and it was no longer possible to attack them.
Before the horse bandits could cheer, a dense rain of arrows had already poured head-on, and immediately shot over a group of bandits. After the emergency training in the past few days, many strong men have received basic bow and arrow training, although their movements are not standard enough, and the accuracy is not at all, but in the environment of the Heavenly God Continent, even if they do not cultivate battle qi, everyone is also very strong. It was no problem to draw the longbow with such force, and such a large number of novice longbowmen were standing behind the city walls at this time, attacking the horse bandit charging party in a diffuse manner.
The screams in the bandit ranks, and with their previous experience, they knew that such an attack could not be unlimited, so they fell to the ground and continued to charge, hoping to get out of range of this weapon and reach the city as soon as possible.
Seeing that the opponent's new weapons were emerging one after another, Zheng Guangqi almost twisted the short sword in his hand into a twist. He didn't believe that Cao knew nothing about these weapons, and the reason why he didn't tell him was obviously not kind. Zheng Guang didn't think so, anyway, it was those pony bandit teams who died now, and the strength of his Divine Light Thieves was not damaged, so he didn't feel very distressed.
The bandits finally made it past the blockade of the bow and arrow, and soon reached the city, where the bow and arrow could no longer hurt them. The bandits, who were finally relieved, immediately set up a ladder and slammed towards the city. A wooden pole with a forked head protruded from the city wall and set up a rack for the ladder, which was the weapon pole used by the defenders to deal with the ladder.
The fork pole was also made by Fang Ruitao, he found that every time the defenders encountered the ladder, they could only wait to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the head of the city, and this kind of defense was too passive, so he made the fork pole used in ancient China.
When the enemy builds a ladder to climb up, the soldiers can use the fork pole to push the ladder down without exposing themselves, without losing any loss themselves, and can also injure the enemy, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Dozens of fork rods were busy back and forth, knocking down ladders one after another, and the horse bandits screamed and reads. Seeing that the ladder was being pushed down continuously, a warrior-level master among the horse bandits jumped under the ladder, and set the ladder up to the top of the city, he steadied himself, stabilized the ladder with both arms, and shouted to the little horse bandits: "Come up, I'll hold it." ā
Seeing that there was a master stabilizing the ladder below, those horse bandits began to climb up with confidence, but when those horse bandits with short swords in their mouths had just climbed to two meters away from the city, strange long-pole weapons had already stretched out from above. These weapons all have a one-foot-long spear head, and there are barbs on both sides of the spear head, only to see the spear head stabbed at the horse bandit, the little horse bandit naturally dodged away, but the room for maneuver on the ladder was too small, and the horse bandit could only barely dodge the opponent's direct stab sideways, but the other party suddenly retracted the gun, and the barb on the gun head stabbed into the horse bandit's flesh. In the midst of the screams, the horse bandit on the ladder was carried to the head of the city with a spear, and was immediately killed.
This weapon is the grappling gun that Fang Ruitao created with the inventory of the armory, this is a weapon specially used for the defense of the city, which can carry the opponent's soldiers on the ladder to the city and kill them, consuming the opponent's strength little by little. Although many of the bandits were killed by these strange weapons, they continued to climb up at a rapid pace.
"Roll wood with gravel. Yue Zhen shouted, and the defenders immediately threw the stone rolling wood that had been prepared on the city wall down the ladder. The guarded horse bandits originally wanted to deal with those grabbing guns and forks, but they didn't expect to fall head-on with huge rocks and trees. In the face of these powerful weapons, the ladders were smashed one after another, and the horse bandits were forced to retreat.
Just as Zheng Guang's troops began to attack the West Gate, the attack on the South Gate finally began. This time, Cao Ju, who thought that he already knew Fang Ruitao's falsehood, did not carry out a tentative attack, but directly sent an army of 10,000 to attack the defenders.
The expected rockfall was fixed at a fixed distance, so the men were not worried, and after suffering minor losses, they finally rushed through the area. The experienced bandits held their rows high to defend against a possible rain of arrows, but the rain of arrows reappeared, but it was different from usual.
At the head of the city, Fang Ruitao once again took out a new type of city-defending weapon, that is, the Zhuge Divine Crossbow. The Zhuge God Crossbow has a quiver box, which is placed with huge feather arrows like short spears, it uses the principle of levers, every time the lever is lifted, a short spear in the quiver box can be pressed into the groove, and at the same time, the bowstring can be completely pulled and placed on the tenon. When the lever was pressed, the spear was bounced out with great force and flew towards the horse bandit who was holding the wooden platoon and advancing carefully.
The horse bandits never expected that the feather arrows could be made so big, how could their simple wooden rows withstand the short spears with huge impact force, and those Zhuge God crossbows that were made into bed crossbows relied on the huge impact force to directly shatter the wooden rows in the hands of the horse bandits and nail them to the ground.
