Chapter 130: The Sturdy Nanpi

Although the Thunderbolt was pushed to the exterior wall, it was also damaged a lot.

After all, although the wood of the main body of the thunderbolt is accumulated from the logging of these days, it cannot be damaged for a while.

However, the stockpiling of hemp rope and beef tendon linked to the thunderbolt cart can consume a considerable amount, and these accessories rely on the usual accumulation, at least in wartime, it is really damaged by one and one less.

Although they brought a lot of them to attack Nanpi City this time, they only blew up the outer walls now.

Qi Hong couldn't help but glance at Duan Ji Liu's family with disgust when he thought of this, if it weren't for the Xianbei cavalry being scared by the people of Bohai, then he could have continued to stay, continue to reserve siege equipment, and then break it through in one go.

But now with the retreat of the Xianbei cavalry, he was forced to attack Nanpi City, otherwise these Xianbei people would be afraid and choose to retreat.

Although Qi Hong used the Xianbei cavalry as a dog, Qi Hong still recognized the lethality of the Xianbei cavalry.

At this time, Duan Ji Liu's relatives looked at Qi Hong and turned his eyes to himself, and couldn't help muttering in his heart:

"What are you looking at me like this, it shouldn't be inhuman enough to let your Xianbei Lang'er attack the city, right?

What are you kidding, as long as you ask this question, Lao Tzu absolutely refuses, in this world, where is the reason to let the cavalry attack the city. ”

However, Qi Hong only glanced at Duan Ji Liu's relatives in the end, and did not say anything about letting the cavalry attack the city.

Qi Hong ordered that the archers first throw arrows as cover, and then let the soldiers cover by the wooden curtain, and the soldiers were transported by Lu Gongcha to quickly reach the gap in the outer wall.

Qi Hong's orders were issued one after another, and the entire war group, which had been preparing for nearly a month, began to operate steadily.

It's just that Wang Sang has already estimated the destruction of the exterior walls, after all, these exterior walls were built in a temporary hurry, what quality this thing is, others don't know, don't they know it themselves!

If these outer walls are really reliable, what are you doing with the caves you are building, isn't it just to prevent your own soldiers from rushing out after the opponent throws stones?

In the final analysis, Liu Tai's craftsman skills have not kept up, if he does, don't say anything, Liu Tai will definitely give himself a key defense city, first build a ten-seat eight-seat catapult.

After all, Liu Tai has only been stable in Qingzhou for a few years, and the craftsmen have been transferred to the dock, so they are worse in terms of siege weapons.

However, Thunderbolt is not a new technology in the end, and there are mature ways to deal with it.

The best choice is naturally a collision of technologies, of course, if you really don't have this kind of thing in your hands, you can also choose Wang Sang's method, build an outer wall, build a hidden soldier cave, and smash the outer wall at will.

Anyway, my soldiers hid in the built Tibetan soldier cave, and if you have the ability, your thunderbolt car will also collapse Lao Tzu's hiding soldier cave.

But the problem is that the one who can do this kind of thing is not a thunderbolt, but a ground-penetrating bomb, and even in the 21st century, building underground bunkers is still a favorable way to fight.

After all, in the final analysis, no matter how advanced the siege weapons of this era are, they still have to be snatched by others in the end.

Seeing that the other party finally gave up throwing stones and chose to let the soldiers go up, Wang Sang decisively let the drummer beat the war drums and let the soldiers in the hidden soldier cave come out.

At the same time, some of the soldiers who poured out, carrying shelters such as rejecting horses, rushed to the city wall that had been smashed down as soon as possible, and built this simple defense as soon as possible.

The two sides began to fight fiercely around this breakthrough, and the first wave of soldiers did not succeed in taking this gap, and Qi Hong's second wave immediately got on the rushing car, using it as a gate to attack the city, and directly forcibly rushed open.

This time the outer wall was breached, and even if the gap was to be blocked, it was rushed open by the continuous influx of soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Wang Sang didn't care at all, but immediately waved the flag and asked the soldiers to retreat, but the real departure of this defense system began to be revealed.

After Qi Hong's soldiers rushed into the outer wall, they saw another rock wall inside, and there were enemies above them!

"How can there be such a high wall?" Everyone suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Because they didn't notice for a while that the ground inside was slightly sloping, so they would be so smooth when they impacted.

The inner layer of the rock wall looks like a rock wall, but it is actually a low wall, which is much lower than the outermost outer wall, but because of this, the ground under their feet is excavated and then deliberately refilled, so the foundation is much lower than the normal land.

This caused them to fall after rushing in, giving them the illusion that the low wall in front of them seemed to be very high.

This is Chu Yu's handiwork, directly with the nearby excavated soil, built two city walls, one is the outer wall, the other is a low wall, in the maximum use of the excavated soil at the same time, but also in the defensive battle to form a local terrain advantage.

After the soldiers under Qi Hong's command rushed in, a famous king Sang soldier didn't use a bow and arrow, he all took out his bow and crossbow, and without saying a word, he shot them first. Even these soldiers who ascended first were well-armored, high-spirited, and determined.

But at this moment, he was taken care of with crossbow arrows by Wang Sang's corporaries, and his comrades-in-arms were brutally slaughtered.

Even if they have a good psychological quality, watching a large number of comrades in front of them die in an instant, they will inevitably be shaken.

However, the technology of Zhuge Lian's crossbow is not in Liu Tai's hands, and this crossbow arrow is also a normal Han crossbow, so after shooting a crossbow arrow, it was thrown to the ground, and the special personnel immediately began to put arrows on the crossbow arrows.

After all, the work of winding a bow and crossbow is not only a technical work, but also a strength work, even if it is a hand crossbow, it can not be plugged and played in a short time.

And the warriors began to shoot with bows and arrows after losing the Han crossbow, as for the arrows, there is no need to cherish, and now there are other things in Nanpi City that dare not guarantee, but there are many arrows, and there is nothing reluctant about these.

Therefore, at this moment, the momentum of Qi Hong's offensive was once again contained, and Qi Hong saw that the situation was not right, and decisively ordered to stop the attack.

Because of the continued investment in manpower attack, the cost performance is already a little too low, even if this exterior wall can't be taken down.

In the days that followed, Qi Hong gave up the forcible siege of the city, and instead chose to start steadily and steadily letting the soldiers throw rocks with thunderbolts, intending to use this stupid method to slowly bulldoze the defenses of Nanpi.

Because Qi Hong understands that the other party's preparation for Nanpi City is indeed quite abundant, and with such abundant preparation, he will either cut off the other party's food and completely surround the other party, or he will honestly push it flat, at least until the other party has not changed, there is no other way.

And since ancient times, siege has been such a painful and numbing thing for the besieging side.

It's just that Qi Hong hasn't waited for Wang Sang's change, and Wang Jun has already sent a message to inquire in his rear.

said that he was not urging Ling, but when would he be able to take Nanpi as a gift for his enthronement!

Yes, after Wang Jun defeated Liu Kun, his confidence swelled, and he felt that the Jin court had perished, and there was no emperor in the world, so he did it, and the Sima family of this emperor in Henan did it, and he was even more able to sit in the Taiyuan Wang family!

It's just that he wants to be the emperor, Wang Jun feels that it is not enough to only expel Liu Kun, but if he submits to Shi Le, expells Liu Tai, and allows himself to monopolize the two states of Youji, then it will be justified to be the emperor.

As Shi Le flattered him and wrote him some words to bow his head, Wang Jun thought that as long as he expelled Liu Tai from Jizhou, then Shi Le would become a miscellaneous beard who took refuge in him at any time, just like Duan's Xianbei obeyed his own dispatch.

In comparison, only Liu Tai did not look like he wanted to surrender to himself, and he was clearly a hardcore member of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom.

This kind of person doesn't use it for surgery, so what can he do with it, so after the autumn harvest, the water of the Beidi River froze, so Qi Hong made a decisive crusade.

But in the past so long, even Nanpi City has not been captured, and Bohai County has not been occupied, which makes Wang Jun a little impatient.

But Wang Jun recognizes Qi Hong's strength in the end, especially since he is sixty years old, he can't let himself go into battle.

So he just sent an order to ask Qi Hong.

Qi Hong looked at Wang Jun's order, and the corners of his mouth twitched, but he still chose to follow his own pace!

After all, this is a siege, not a field battle, and if it is a field battle, you will be sure of victory in the face of anyone.

But if it's a siege...... Save it, this kind of thing is really hard-hitting, and no one can say how much time.

No matter how much Wang Jun is, he will not cut himself because he can't capture this Nanpi City, after all, siege has been the most headache among all generals since ancient times.

Therefore, Qi Hong also wrote a reply letter to Wang Jun, and he continued to patiently smash Nanpicheng with a thunderbolt.

"When did Liu Tai's reinforcements come, did they really watch themselves smash stones here?"

Qi Hong's eyes couldn't help but look at Liu Tai's direction, and after waiting for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little irritable in his heart.

Whether it is his own red-blooded cavalry or the Hun cavalry, these are the cavalry that are best at field encounters, not good at siege.

Therefore, although he now has 50,000 soldiers to fight, there are not many who can really be engaged in siege warfare.

If you can capture Nanpi City in one go, forget it.

But since the defending generals in Nanpi City were even more difficult to deal with than he expected, Qi Hong was not only serious about attacking the city, but also waiting for Liu Tai's reinforcements to come to the rescue, and then killing Liu Tai's reinforcements himself.

Use the heads of reinforcements to crush the morale of Nanpi City, and then attack the city when the time comes, it will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

It is precisely because of such a plan that Qi Hong at this moment is patient and continues to let the thunderbolt car smash the outer wall little by little.

But his mind is all on Liu Tai's reinforcements, and Zhao An, who will break into pieces and enter the countryside as soon as he comes over, does not count.

It's the real kind of rescue main force, a reinforcement that can have a main confrontation with himself.

Qi Hong believed that Liu Tai would definitely send reinforcements over, because even the Jin State inherited Cao Wei's belief that as long as he was stationed in the city for a hundred days without rescue, he could surrender, just Wang Sang, why did he do his best for Liu Tai to be loyal.

Therefore, since the siege of Nanpi City, Qi Hong has been silently calculating time.

Qi Hong believes that no matter how good Liu Tai's patience is, Liu Tai will eventually send a large army over.

And his own purpose has long since changed from Nanpi City itself to the reinforcements to attack Liu Tai.

Qi Hong was waiting for Liu Tai to attack, and in the same way, Liu Tai was also waiting.

It's just that Liu Tai really didn't expect Wang Jun to take the initiative to attack after solving Liu Kun, so he didn't have time to deal with it.

can only let Zhao An be the vanguard and cooperate with Wang Sang to delay Qi Hong's attack.

And he dispatched craftsmen to organize the assembly line, mainly producing two weapons, one is a martial car, and the other is a giant bow and crossbow!

There is no way, he lacks horses, and Liu Tai is aware of his weaknesses.

Therefore, even if the infantry has to solve these two things, they only have the capital to fight with them.

Otherwise, no matter how fierce their soldiers are and how fearful they are to death, if they really meet in the wild, they will inevitably use their flesh and blood to compete with the cavalry.

Although these two months are not a long time, they are enough for Liu Tai to consume the materials he has accumulated and build enough giant bows and crossbows and martial arts cars.

Wugang car is almost a necessary equipment for foot and horse, which can be traced back to the confrontation between Wei Qing and the Huns, and the sharp weapon of the Han soldiers to carry out positional warfare is one of them.

And this kind of thing is often used even in later history, such as the Tang Dynasty to deal with the Turks.

As for the giant bow and crossbow, Liu Tai can't make the Zhuge Repeater Crossbow, nor can he get the Ma Jun Repeater Crossbow, but if he can't even get the giant bow and crossbow, then he will inevitably look down on the craftsmen under Liu Tai too much.

Moreover, what Liu Tai didn't know was that the giant size of bows and crossbows was actually more in line with the development trend of bows and crossbows in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

Especially in the Tang Dynasty, the number of bows and crossbows carried by the Tang Dynasty soldiers was only about one-fifth of that of their soldiers.

A large part of the reason for this is that the Tang Dynasty also pursued the huge flower of the bow and crossbow, and developed towards the ballista car.

And the number of craftsmen under his command is limited, and the materials are still hoarding, so he used the craftsmen on the ship first, but now that he needs them, he naturally chooses to dispatch craftsmen and carry out crazy production.

After two months of savings, Liu Tai also knew that he had to send troops to rescue Wang Sang.

Just as Qi Hong judged, Zhao An, who he sent to support, gave Wang Sang the first wave of confidence, so that Wang Sang could settle down and fight a defensive battle with Qi Hong.

But it is impossible for him to really leave Wang Sang where he is and ignore it, just so purely consuming Qi Hong's morale and materials.

After all, Wang Sang is a human, not an NPC in his own game.

It is impossible for him to think that he will fight to the death and fight for himself until he is a soldier.

As long as he treats Wang Sang with such an attitude, then Wang Sang will abandon himself in the next second.

Therefore, although the rules and regulations are to keep it for 100 days, normally speaking, two months is the limit, and at the same time, I have been fully prepared for these two months.

At least if he continues to stay in Qingzhou now, it is impossible to increase the probability of defeating Qi Hong.

So Liu Tai chose to lead the army north at this moment and lead the army to Nanpicheng!

Liu Tai understood that as long as Qi Hong was really a famous general, then he would not let his army reach Nanpi City!
