Chapter 605: Storming Giant Sheep City

To the west of the Meng army camp in Juyang City, six giant phalanxes were lined up, and the 60,000 troops of the 21st Army of Shaodian Kingdom were ready to fight a big battle with the Meng army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In the past two days, the Shaodian army launched a tentative offensive and cleared the battlefield obstacles, and at night it also sent troops to harass and drag the Meng army in the barracks to prevent it from withdrawing smoothly.

Juyang City has a lot of materials hoarded, and there is no deep-water wharf on the riverbank, so medium-sized warships alone can't transport supplies so quickly. Zhan Wei had no choice but to stay behind to assist the 30,000 Meng army to resist the attack of the Shaodian army, and the remaining soldiers drove the people of Juyang City to carry supplies.

The Shaodian Army erected a handsome platform more than ten meters high, with the commander Gu Jun, the forbidden magician Ming Tang, the chief magician Shi Kang, the chief of staff Lianggong, Ding Kui and Ao Yu, as well as three or four staff officers and a small team of personal guards gathered on the platform.

"The 202nd Division pushed out the trebuchets and prepared for the attack. ”

There is a long case in the shuaitai, and there are all kinds of order flags and tokens on the table, Lianggong pulled up a small flag, and a personal soldier quickly stepped forward, took the small flag and ran down the handsome platform.

At the same time, a staff officer waved a square flag to the audience and gave immediate instructions to the 202nd Division.

The two rows of soldiers at the front of the 202nd Division's phalanx separated from each other and quickly ran around the two sides to the rear of the phalanx, revealing a hundred carts hidden in the formation.

"Oh, those two days and two nights were not in vain. Of course, Ding Kui recognized the carts, and many of them had his footprints on the roofs.

"The 203rd and 204th divisions covered left and right. Liang Gong continued to order.

Both the corps commander and the chief of staff can command the entire corps in battle, and they will divide the work in advance, and each has his own things to do. Gu Jun's most important thing today was to deal with Zhan Wei, so the command of the battle was handed over to Liang Gong.

The sound of armor grinding and weapons colliding sounded rhythmically, and 20,000 energetic soldiers rushed out, forming a double glaive array on the left and right, guarding both sides of the trebuchet position in front of the breakthrough.

"Corrective shooting, one test shot, let's go!"

The first trebuchet was in place, and a squadron of soldiers circled around it. It takes fifty strong soldiers to pull the trap to fire the projectile, and the rest of the people have to prepare to replace and reload the projectile and restore the mechanism.

Whew, a stone projectile bigger than a basketball was thrown out.

The stone projectile flew through the open space between the two armies with a strong wind, and fell to a place about ten meters outside the wall of the Meng army's camp, smashing a deep pit on the ground, and the flying sand and gravel actually shot on the camp wall.

"The arm shaft is lowered by two fingers, and the rope is extended by one meter. "A craftsman told the squadron leader who commanded the trebuchet.

"Lower the arm shaft by two fingers, and pull the rope one meter longer!" the squadron leader ordered according to the craftsman's words.

It takes a lot of experience to command and operate a trebuchet, the size and weight of the stone projectile are different, the force of each rope is different, it is difficult to hit a certain point accurately, it is a sharp weapon to attack if it is used well, and it is a scare ornament if it is not used well. Experienced craftsmen are treasures in the army, and their status is higher than that of ordinary squadron leaders.

The stone bullet was thrown high again.

More than 100,000 eyes were staring at the stone bullet, and some of the Meng soldiers even forgot to breathe nervously, seeing that the flight trajectory might fall on their heads.

Ding Kui was also staring at the stone bullets, he used a trebuchet when guarding the Hump Mountain Pass, but the accuracy was a little low, and only one of the seven or eight pieces hit the target, if it weren't for the dense shape of the enemy army, he could be classified as a furnishing.

With a "click", the stone bullet hit a flag on the camp wall, and the flagpole broke off on the spot.

An officer jumped up from behind the camp wall, and used an iron rod to fly a stone bullet that consumed most of the kinetic energy, and two soldiers stretched out their spears to open the fallen half of the flagpole, and the defensive formation was not chaotic at all.

"Veteran, morale is not weak. Ding Kui estimated that the soldiers he brought out might not be as good as the defenders on the opposite side in a disadvantaged situation.

"Hehe, this is a test launch, and you can be so calm for a while to be considered the elite of a hundred battles. Liang Gong smiled.

He specially called Ding Kui to his side to watch how he commanded the battle.

"Verification completed!" said the squadron leader who commanded the test-firing trebuchet raised a green flag.

"Verification completed!", "Verification completed!", "Verification completed!"

One after another, squadron leaders raised the green flag.

The 100 trebuchets of the Shaodian Army need to be fired in a salvo to play the maximum effect, and there is no need for each trebuchet to be tested once, just refer to the one that has been verified.

Before all the green flags were raised, thirty or forty black dots flew out of the camp of the Meng army, and the trebuchets of the Meng army attacked first without verification.

However, Meng Jun's trebuchet was in the camp, and the longest range could not reach the Shaodian army's trebuchet array, and the sporadic two or three stone bullets rolled under the feet of the Shaodian army, and even the skin could not be broken.

The 203rd and 204th Divisions each had two human dragons running out, one of them holding a long bamboo pole with a net of hemp rope tied between them, and the other holding a large shield nearly two meters high, made of multi-layered cork instead of steel, which was large but light.

There are a large number of baggage in Juyang City, and equipment such as trebuchets must be indispensable, and the Shaodian Army has specially prepared rope nets and cork shields to deal with long-range attacks, intending to firmly grasp the long-range pressure ability.

The 100 squadron leaders of the 202nd Division ran to the rear of the trebuchet together, and their attention was all focused on the division commander Zhao Touch, while the commander of the division was staring at Zhao Touch, the commander of the division.

Zhao Touch's raised sword slashed down with force, causing the flag officer to immediately push down a command flag beside him.

"Put!" shouted a hundred squadron leaders almost simultaneously.

Click, click, click.

There was a chaotic sound of machinery.

A hundred stone projectiles flew towards the camp wall of the Meng army's camp, not fast but extremely oppressive.

Not all stone bullets could hit the camp wall, some fell outside, some fell inside, and more or less damaged the defense line of the Mon army.

The wooden walls of the camp wailed in trembling, and the few stone bullets were blocked by rope nets and cork shields, but more than half of the stone bullets could still hit accurately.

One or two blows can't destroy the camp wall, but even the city wall can't withstand it if there are too many times.

Zhao Touch slashed another sword in the air, and the flag officer continued to push down the Ling Qi, and another wave of stone projectiles flew into the air.

Some of the trebuchets adjusted their direction under the command of the craftsmen, and the landing points of some of the stone projectiles were concentrated, and the power of the trebuchet gradually became apparent.

"Wrap strips of cloth, tie oil bags, and ignite before ejaculating. Zhao Yan ordered.

The soldiers carrying the bullets sprang into action, wrapping them around the bullets with strips of cloth soaked in oil and tying a bag full of oil to them.

Once again, flying into the air were flaming stone projectiles.

Some of them will splash off when they hit their targets, some will leave a cloud of fire on the ground, and some will turn into a ball of fire in the air.

At this time, the defense line of the Meng army panicked, and the shield-breaking knight, who couldn't hold his breath, began to intercept flint bullets with swords and guns.

"You see, some of the enemy troops began to disobey orders, and they chose to survive in the face of survival and military discipline. Liang Gong said to Ding Kui.

Ding Kui nodded.

The Meng army can organize knights and magicians to spend fighting energy and magic to intercept stone bullets, but when the Shaodian army is in full attack, the Meng army's most central defense force will not be able to hold out and resist the elite force of the Shaodian army.

"Liftoff!" Gu Jun jumped on a fire bat and flew into the air, and Ming Tang followed him closely.

As soon as Scam's hand was raised, he shot a magic light bullet, and then flew into the air.

The magicians scattered across the divisions saw magic light bullets flying up one after another, guarding the sky above their units.

Ding Kui raised his head to Ao Yu and said, "You follow Master Ming." ”

Ao Yu stepped on the green dragon and flew towards Ming Tang coldly and arrogantly.

", it's clear that you're bullying the old man, and the old man has written down this account!" Zhan Wei scolded angrily.

He has five divisions of magicians under him, and the number is more than a few magicians in today's Shaodian Army, but he has no choice but to have the best combination of the sixth level, the martial arts, and eat him to the death.

Gu Jun, Ming Tang, Ao Yu, and the three of them burst out of front and flew into the air outside the range of the archers.

Ming Tang shrank behind Gu Jun and Ao Yu with a magic wand in one hand, and laughed: "Hahaha, keep your breath, don't you come out to reminisce?"

"Ming Tang, don't embarrass your teacher, we'll negotiate an agreement!" Zhan Wei said as he arranged for Meng Jun's magician to stand beside him.

"That's the agreement at the Hump Mountain Pass, this is the Giant Sheep City, not to be confused. Do you still have to resist now?" Ming Tang frowned.

"I'm telling you, don't think about using forbidden spells, I'm going to leave you tens of thousands of people after killing everyone today. Even if the old man is seriously injured, at least one of you can bury the hope of one of you to advance. You should know in your hearts that it is not enough for the three of you to keep the old man. Zhan Wei put on a desperate posture.

"Hmph, Magician Array, won't you be able to treat me as me?" Ming Tang saw Zhan Wei's intentions.

"Just hold you back, the two of them can kill a few people, and if they dare to get close to me, they will fight hard. Zhan Wei also took out two magic wands.

"Hmph, the magician belongs, attack freely!" said Gu Jun who took the lead in shooting the fire bat, "Ding Yu just protects Master Ming." ”

Ming Tang was not in a hurry to deal with Zhan Wei, so he went to the camp wall to paint the fire wall.

"Magic interception!" Zhan Wei was forced to order.

This situation is the last thing Zhan Wei wants to see, Ming Tang and Gu Jun don't beat him and just hit the camp wall, he can stop one and can't stop the two; the magicians of the two countries are fighting each other, his side is at a disadvantage, and the Meng army can only rely on human lives to delay time.

If he continues to consume, Zhan Wei's desperate capital will be exhausted, and sooner or later he will be forced to leave, and Ming Tang can go on a killing spree.

When the mage joined the battle, the camp wall soon collapsed, and the Shaodian army's trebuchets concentrated on attacking the broken camp wall. As long as a gap is smashed, it can be torn along the gap to both sides, and the western camp wall of the Meng army camp in Juyang City is gradually unable to support it.

"Withdraw! Withdraw to the city!" Wujiang ordered after obtaining Zhan Wei's consent.

The Meng army began to retreat, and when they withdrew from a battalion, they would set fire to a battalion, even if the Shaodian army completely had the advantage in magical power, it would not be able to organize the Meng army to burn the camp.

Looking at the gradually raging fire, Liang Gong sighed: "It's really decisive, in a while, I will send the 206th Division to forcibly storm the camp, so that they can burn up to one-third of the camp." ”
