Chapter 485: Throwing Stones, the Yan Army Attacks Again
"One, two, three...... Qing Qin in the Chinese army frowned silently, counted the number of stone bullets in the air, and then muttered: "It seems that Zhao Jun has not rested during this day!" "At a rough count, the number of stone bullets in the air is more than doubled.
Obviously, either the Zhao army did not show all the catapults in the battle the day before yesterday, or the Zhao army took advantage of yesterday's truce to temporarily produce more catapults.
Of course, it doesn't matter what the facts are, at least for now, not the most important thing. Even the increase in catapults, Qing Qin could be regarded as expected.
However, the Zhao army's battle method of attacking in groups was quite surprised, obviously, this tactic was almost a tactic that just restrained his scattered weapons.
But Zhao Jun's catapult is still so accurate! Even if it's a group of five, it's still a must-hit in each group, how can this be played?
"Order: The front army accelerates, without taking into account the formation, quickly interspersed under the city wall, loses the parts of the equipment, and helps advance the arrow tower nearby!" Qing Qin didn't hesitate any longer, and ordered directly.
I have to say that Qing Qin's reaction was still very fast, and his judgment of the power of Zhao Jun's catapult was also very accurate, and the method he thought of to crack it was also very simple - to win quickly.
It's just that even if Qing Qin's reaction is fast enough, it still takes time from the transmission of the general's order, to the execution of the general's order, and then to the acceleration of the sergeants.
In this short period of time when the order was delivered, Zhao Jun's stone-throwing cart fired two more rounds in unison, destroying twelve arrow towers, and it was really a bullet!
The thirty arrow towers that Qing Qin had high hopes for lost more than half in an instant, and Qing Qin only felt that his heart was cracked.
Fortunately, after the order was delivered, the vanguard corps accelerated again, and finally disrupted the rhythm of the Zhao army's catapult, and the fourth round of the Zhao army's catapult attack only knocked out three arrow towers, and the hit rate dropped by 30%.
The fifth round was even worse, with only one destroyed. Fortunately, Zhao Ping, who was above the city tower, had previous experience, and quickly discovered the change in the rhythm of the Yan army, and decisively ordered to reduce the weight and shorten the attack distance, and finally under the sixth round of attacks, the two arrow towers were destroyed, and by the seventh round, the number rose to three.
It's a pity that after seven rounds, although Zhao Jun has adapted to the acceleration of the Yan army, the two arrow towers at the front of the Yan army have been close to the city wall, but that's all, the last arrow tower quickly turned into pieces in the flying stones in the sky, splashing dust all over the ground!
So far, there is not one in ten arrow towers of the Yan army. However, although General Qing Qin was very distressed, he was not unacceptable, after all, the cloud ladder that he valued the most, under the cover of dozens of arrow towers with his life, almost all came intact under the city wall.
Followed by
The sound of "bang bang bang" suddenly resounded through the city wall! It was the catapult of the Yan army that was slowly and leisurely behind, although the Yan army's catapult was not accurate, and the one that was thrown close was not next to the city wall, and the one thrown far away even hit the real drop of the artillery camp, but it couldn't stand the number of people, fifty catapults were launched together, even if only half of the stones were thrown on the city, it was enough for Zhao Jun to drink a pot.
It's a pity that such majesty is only fleeting. After Zhao Jun's catapult disposed of the arrow tower, it naturally aimed at the Yan army's catapult as a kind.
"Xiu Xiu Xiu" was a few more sounds that broke the air, and Zhao Jun attacked the Yan Army's catapult in formation!
In an instant, the Yan army's catapult camp was overturned. The Yan army's catapults were destroyed before they could even launch a third round of attacks, and the remaining few catapults were also destroyed by the Zhao army one by one on the way to retreat in a hurry.
So far, the catapults of the Zhao army have almost perfectly completed all the pre-war preset goals: destroy the arrow tower and seize the advantage of the crossbowmen in the city tower; Destroy the catapult and lighten the burden on the walls.
Of course, for Yan Jun, such a result is obviously acceptable. Not only a team of ladders, but also a rush to the city were also safely sent to the bottom of the city tower.
It can be said that the dispersion tactics adopted by Qing Qin have also played their due role. Of course, the most regrettable thing is that the catapult that Yan Jun spent a lot of effort to make, because the accuracy did not meet the requirements, and almost did not cause any damage to the walls of Zhao Jun and Yan and Cheng.
No way, the power of science and technology is not a simple pile of quantities that can be useful. I can beat you, but you can't beat me, this is the suppression of technology, and qi is useless!
Fortunately, the generals of both Yan and Zhao seem to be satisfied with the current result! There is no other reason, General Qing Qin of the Yan Army attaches more importance to the advancement of the ground, so the cloud ladder is what he pays the most attention to, and being able to send the cloud ladder means that he can give full play to the advantage of having more troops, and he can also consume the Zhao army to death?
And Zhao Kuo attaches more importance to the advantage in the air, as long as the arrow tower can't enter, it will not be able to suppress the archers on the city wall, and it will not be able to interfere with the attack and defense of the city wall.
As for the ladder, without the ladder, the Yan army will also use the ladder, and in order to make up for the disadvantage of the ladder, the Yan army may bring up more ladders, and our army will be even more overwhelmed.
After all, whether Qing Qin's thinking is more stable or Zhao Kuo's thinking is more advanced, all of this remains to be tested by time.
At the same time that the Zhao army cleared the threat of catapults, the ladders were already attached to the city wall, and the Yan troops under the city wall, one by one, smiled evilly, stepped on the ladder, and attacked the city!
Finally, you can climb this hateful city tower and see Zhao Jun's face! The long knives in the hands of the soldiers of the Yan army have long been hungry and thirsty!
Zhao Kuo didn't care about this, it was nothing more than fighting! Pouting, picking up the long knife beside him, Zhao Kuo strode towards the Yan Army Cloud Ladder in the middle of the city wall!
"Wow...... "The ladder is better than the flying ladder!" Yan Jun, who was devastated by the flying ladder, couldn't help but sigh
The power of "technology"! However, when they climbed the city wall with a comfortable face, they were greeted by the second round of dense arrow rain from the Zhao army!
How could the Yan army, which had lost the protection of the shield soldiers, be the opponent of the sharp arrows of the Zhao army with only flesh and blood?
Or was directly pierced and planted down the ladder, or was dragged down the ladder by the momentum of the arrows, and in an instant, on the top of the ladder of the Yan army, one by one the Yan soldiers fell down like dumplings!
However, one Yan sergeant fell, and thousands of Yan sergeants stood up! The soldiers of the Yan army stepped on the ladder one after another towards the city wall, even if the archers adopted a three-stage attack after Zhao Kuo's training, there was almost no time gap, but there was still a gap between the arrows after all.
So in this very small space, the Yan army tossed and turned, and after making unremitting efforts, there were finally soldiers standing on the city wall of the north gate of Shancheng!
It's only for a moment...... This is already much easier than the previous war! The thick long knife quickly sliced a beautiful curve through the air, sending out a burst
The sound of "woo woo ......" broke the air, and then smashed Yan Jun, who had just stood at the head of the city.
With a "squeak", the long knife slashed through the not very thick armor, and went straight in the direction of one cut and two cuts.
With a "......bang", the sharp long knife was finally stopped by the backbone, but the knife momentum was unabated, and the powerful knife momentum directly knocked the soldiers in front of him who were almost broken.
The force of the impact was so great that after knocking down several people on the ladder in a row, it made another curve in the air, and then fell the ground that had been soaked with blood.
The blood gushing out of the seven orifices once again blends with the blood in the soil, adding a touch of brightness to the land!
The eyes that flowed with four lines of blood and tears were wide open, and he looked up in disbelief. Under the fierce northern sun, the armor on Zhao Kuo's body shone brightly, and he waved two long knives in both hands, standing alone on the towering city wall, as if the gods had descended.
"The Admiral is mighty!"
"The Admiral is mighty!" Above the city tower, bursts of cheers followed, and the morale of the entire Zhao army was hit to another peak by this blow!
Although I have also seen the general's demeanor on the battlefield, this knife is still too fast and too exciting!
And the result was too violent, too bloody, but it was exactly what the warriors looked up to. How can you not make the soldiers of the Zhao army cheer?
! It was Zhao Kuo in the center of the storm, who looked at the Yan soldiers who were smashed down by him and bled to death, but his heart was calm, obviously he had experienced the Changping battlefield, and he had long been accustomed to killing, whether it was his own or not.
Zhao Kuo, who was calm, didn't even bother to wipe the blood on the knife, and went straight to the next victim.
And Zhao Kuo was followed by countless warriors of the Zhao army - the rain of arrows became more and more dense, and even the swords that slashed at the Yan army became more powerful.
A murderous aura from hell is spreading! If it weren't for the restraint of the city wall, I'm afraid that the Zhao army at this time would have already rushed into the Yan army array and wantonly launched a slaughter.
The soldiers of the Yan Army, who were still standing on the cloud ladder, seemed to have felt the fierce murderous aura of these people, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts!
Even unconsciously, he retreated a few steps back, and even in the middle and tail of the ladder, one was careless, and his hind foot stepped on the air, and he fell down directly.
Seeing this, the corners of Zhao Kuo's mouth twitched again, feeling bored and a little helpless. It's boring because no one can take his sword; And the helplessness is that Yan Jun can't come up, and he has no better way, so he can't really kill the cloud ladder!
Zhao Kuo almost single-handedly used his own strength and the power of a sword to force the imposing Yan army to retreat.
The Yan army's enthusiastic battle of ascending the city was simply suppressed by Zhao Kuo with his own strength!
Fortunately, the last two Yan Army arrow towers appeared in time, and the rainstorm-like arrows poured down, finally forcing Zhao Kuo back, and it can be regarded as saving the face of the Yan Army.
It's just that the battle is getting harder and harder.
