Chapter 1066: The Battle Before Jia Meng Pass is in Full Swing (Medium)

By the next day, Guan Long's army's offensive against Jiameng Pass was the same as before.

is still mainly based on stone throwers, but this time it is more small stone projectiles, intending to kill and injure the generals.

After a night's preparation, the defenders of the day were more calm and sufficient, and they formed a hiding place covering the juncture with shields and door panels.

When a round of stones rained down, they would quickly burrow under these bunkers, so that the damage of the stone bullets would be drastically reduced, and only the supplies would be wasted in vain.

Originally, if you could use a giant stone projectile with a larger gravity force at this time, this bit of defense that was closed could naturally be easily broken. However, because the dozens of miles near Jiameng Pass were cleared by strong walls, it would take several days for Guan Longjun to transport large stones, so he could only wait patiently.

However, Li Wannian's side did not stop there, they were also actively planning, seeing that Guan Shang was so passive, Guan Longjun simply decided to attack.

In the afternoon of the same day, when a new round of stones was thrown, causing the defenders to hurriedly hide in the bunkers below, a rather large and complicated team rushed out of the Guanlong army formation and rushed straight to the bottom of the city.

This team is no longer just ordinary foot soldiers as before, but a mixed chariot.

These vehicles range from crash cars that are specially used to bombard city gates, as well as wells that can be quickly erected under the city walls to cover the soldiers below to dig the walls and open the passages.

This time, Li Wannian and the others were not only targeting the defenders above, but even planning to attack the wall and gate below.

And this most common strategy of breaking the city, so I didn't use it before, because it was restricted by the terrain. The front of the Jiameng Pass is too narrow, and the chariots, horses, and soldiers can only invest so much after all, and when the defenders on the pass are fully prepared, this point of men and horses is just sent to death.

But now, because the defenders of the city were suppressed by stones, they launched a new offensive from below, and they had a certain success.

And this time, Li Wannian made all the preparations, in addition to the twenty stone throwers originally used, the other twenty were transferred to the two sides, specially used against the enemy crossbowmen who might emerge on the mountains on both sides, so that this wave of charges could be foolproof.

The ensuing battle also proved that his arrangement was correct, because after seeing this attack, the defenders of Guanshang really sent two groups of crossbowmen to repeat the old trick, and released arrows from the mountains extending from both sides.

As a result, they were naturally in the arms of the Guanlong army, and were bombarded by the arranged rocks, and after being killed and wounded, they could only retreat in a hurry, and let the Guanlong convoy successfully kill under the Guancheng.

At this point, thousands of soldiers naturally had nothing to hesitate about, and immediately launched a new round of offensive.

They may have crashed the door with all their might, trying to blast open the two heavy gates, which were made of pig iron and wood, weighing a thousand pounds; Or set up a huge cowhide tent in front of the wall, and then take out a lot of shovels and shovels, and start digging in the corners.

When the defenders of the city saw the fierceness of the enemy, they were also anxious, and they all appeared in spite of the danger, or shot down with their bows and crossbows, or smashed stones and poured boiling oil, just to hinder the enemy's further movements.

Although the wall of this pass is very suitable for attacking enemies below from above, at an inward angle, even enemies close to the wall can be easily attacked by them. But when the opponent had already deployed the well fence to protect the siege soldiers below, these attacks almost did not work.

Li Wannian, who was in the Guanlong army array, was naturally very happy when he saw this scene, and immediately gave orders continuously, while letting the stone thrower adjust the angle, try to hit as many stone bullets as possible, and suppress the counterattack of the defenders of Guan, and on the other hand, he mobilized soldiers and horses and weapons to continue to transport forward.

Although the men and horses on the battlefield in front of the pass were already congested at this time, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he still had to arrange the follow-up men and horses properly.

And as long as such people and horses are constantly sent up, digging passages, or slamming open and closing doors, or digging down a closed wall, it will become a reality......

At this moment, the Guan Long army was boiling, tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were staring at the battlefield ahead, and everyone felt that this time, Jiameng Pass was really going to be broken by them.

The defenders of Guanshang were also anxious at this time, and many people had already leaned out of the wall to cover the wall despite the huge risk of flying stone bullets, dumping the fire oil downward, and then throwing the torches down, trying to destroy the well fence with fire and sabotage the offensive of the Guanlong army on the wall.

After paying a considerable price, they really set fire to the tops of the seven or eight cars below, and the fire, with the assistance of the oil and the mountain wind, spread even more, and it was very likely that the whole car was burned in a short time, along with the soldiers and horses under the car.

But at this moment, with the shouts of the soldiers below, someone quickly got out and threw the sacks straight above the vehicle.

The smoke and dust suddenly rose, and in a muffled thudding sound, sacks long filled with gravel and dirt covered the spreading fire.

Tuke fire is the principle of nature......

So, in full view of the soldiers on both sides, the fire was quickly extinguished by the earth, and the well-fenced vehicle, because it had been fully prepared for a long time, was still stable at this time, and could protect the soldiers below to continue to work.

As soon as they fell behind, the soldiers and horses in the city were suddenly silent, and the Guan Long generals in the distance were greatly imposed, and the cheers rang out.

This time, the balance of victory seems to have completely tilted towards offense and defense, and as the defenders, no matter how you look at it, there are no more ways to solve today's defeat.

Even if they can't really succeed in breaking the test today because of time, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow ...... As long as they continue to dig and bombard, everyone believes that it won't be long before this Jiameng Pass will be broken alive!

Such an advantage makes the crash team that looks just doing useless work before closing the door is also extremely hard, and the two huge crash cars roared in the sound of three hundred soldiers and horses, extremely quickly one after the other, and the boom continued to crash into the seemingly unbreakable gate, until there were gravel and sand falling above the gate. m.

"One more time, one, two......"

At the exit of the three characters, the huge logs in front of the two crashed cars rushed forward quickly, and slammed into the middle of the two doors, and the heavy iron doors trembled.

Then, the two carts were quickly pushed and pulled backwards by them again, waiting for the next impact.

And at this moment, the closed door that was originally tightly closed, suddenly a crack appeared, and then the crack continued to expand, and with the creaking sound, the gate of Jiameng Pass, which had blocked Guanlong's 80,000 troops for more than ten days, suddenly opened......

Some people died, but not completely......
