Chapter 177: The Three Armies Shake the City (8)

The blue-gray wells glowed with a blue cold light under the bright moon, and their chassis was surrounded by countless Celestial Star soldiers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These soldiers did not hold swords in their hands, but in the early spring season, they were shirtless, and they all pushed the well with both hands. Judging by the bulging muscles of their arms and the speed at which they moved, the weight of each well must have been extremely heavy.

And inside each well there seems to be a driving machine. These unprincipled machines seem to be able to expand the thrust of the soldiers infinitely.

So it seems that although it is slow, it is very steady, and every second is moving forward!

Click... Click......

The sound of the gear machine of each well resounded on the battlefield, which was unique in the noisy and tragic sound, as if the besieging beast was taking heavy steps, and as if it was stepping on some strange beat, blowing the siege war song.

And the first day of the first year seemed to deliberately expand this momentum, and I saw that as soon as he gave the order, he saw dozens of 'war drum platforms' that had been silent all in unison!

Click... Click... Knock knock! knock knock! knock ......!

The sound of war drums became louder and louder, as if ten thousand thunders were ringing in unison, and the ten thousand people under the city were suddenly excited.

Chu Yi glanced unmoved in the direction of the city in front of him, and took advantage of this momentum to quickly throw himself into a phalanx of 4,000 people, and then he looked behind him.

At this moment, the soldiers at the forefront were inspired by the war drums, and swept away the previous decadence, as if their physical strength had also recovered a little.

Soon, the newly joined phalanx of 4,000 people divided into several streams and carried ten ladders through the slowly advancing well, swimming like a long snake to the city wall, and the "sea" for it to swim was a dense crowd.

"Damn it, they! Ahem..."

Lu Wengong stared at the well under the city, and suddenly coughed, showing that under this impatience, the old disease was about to attack again.

Mo Zhongqing's face changed, and he said, "Commander Lu!"

Lu Wengong resisted the urge to continue coughing, waved his hand, and didn't look at the expressions of the guards behind him, because it must not be good-looking.

He knew that after the attack in the first half of the night, there were less than 3,000 men on this wall who could continue to fight.

What's worse is that if all these 3,000 people are killed, they will be cut off from backup, but the other side will still have at least two phalanxes in the formation.

There is a huge disparity between friend and foe!

Although Lu Wengong didn't want to admit it, he subconsciously thought of the worst possibility.

"Young man, I don't know your name yet. ”

Lu Wengong's voice was strange and low.

"Mo Zhongqing. ”

"Okay, you remember...... If "

Mo Zhongqing didn't wait for him to finish, and suddenly said: "Commander Lu, you can rest assured, my friend's cultivation is extremely high, and the county lord's strategy is also extremely ingenious, so it is impossible for us to lose!"

Mo Zhongqing's words were somewhat encouraging, and he was also extremely confident in his heart, but what he didn't know was that Dong Zhaoyi had been defeated by Mo Shaoying.

The siege continues, and the war is flying.

A patch of gloom shrouded the hearts of every Luoyang defender, and the sense of oppression caused by the continuous beating of drums and the rows of wells continued to ferment in the hearts of every soldier.

Although everyone poured rockets on these behemoths, it was frustrating that each rocket could only kill the crossbowmen standing on it, and then the void was immediately filled.

The few rockets that can only be nailed into the well have become the "decoration" on its body, and the huge size of the well has been extremely hideous.

And the only thing that can stop or even destroy the well is the dozens of "siege crossbows" at the head of the city. Mo Zhongqing had seen such a large-scale killing weapon on those warships in the battle of Chongming Island.

Each of their crossbow arrows requires two adult men to carry together, and a siege crossbow requires several soldiers to complete from loading to shooting, and its lethality is indeed superior, but the accuracy of the crossbow arrows varies according to the skill of the crossbowman.

These crossbowmen naturally have far more eyesight than ordinary people, but at this moment they are like ordinary people in the dark night.

This is also one of the reasons why the second senior brother Mo Shaoying did not give the order to attack before dusk.

And Mo Zhongqing is a person who practices martial arts, and then he was pressed into the back of his heart by a snake spirit Neidan and the dragon blood on Su Yi's body, and his body naturally underwent some abnormalities.

It's just that he hasn't noticed these changes yet, and although he can't see the big rear where the first and others are located, he can vaguely see the well thirty zhang away in front of him.

He had clearly seen several times that the whizzing crossbow bolts had not been fired at any of the wells, but had passed between them and shot into the air, and this was the level of a crossbowman.

Mo Zhongqing was a little unconvinced.

And it wasn't until a well full of rockets was destroyed by one or two siege crossbows that Mo Zhongqing knew that it was not that these crossbowmen were not accurate, but that he saw it too clearly.

But even so, there are still many wells that are hidden in the night, and the distance between them and the city walls is quietly shortening.

Mo Zhongqing, who realized this, suddenly said to Lu Wengong, who was struggling to fight back on the side: "Commander Lu, can I control the siege crossbow?"

When Lu Wengong heard this, he immediately squatted down and said suspiciously: "Will you use it? ”

Mo Zhongqing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "No, but I can see further." ”

When Lu Wengong heard this, his face couldn't help but be moved, and without saying a word, he picked up Mo Zhongqing and ran towards the nearest siege crossbow.

"Mo family boy, this is the crossbowman Xiao Li. Now you tell him the location of the nearest well, and the old man will personally put crossbow arrows on you!"

Mo Zhongqing understood, raised his hand and just wanted to point out the position to Xiao Li, but after thinking about it, he suddenly walked to the side and borrowed a longbow from an archer.

He pulled out a greased-soaked rocket from the oil drum next to him, lit the arrow and put it on the bow, pulled the bow and let it go, and in an instant, the rocket was firmly nailed to the shaft that served as a bridge access.

Although this light is as weak as fireflies, Xiao Li and the others have seen it clearly!

Mo Zhongqing then pointed his finger and said, "That's it." ”

Xiao Li is not very old, and when he saw Mo Zhongqing, who was the same age as him, arrive, he was a little unimpressed, but when he saw his rocket come out, there was a little more pity in his eyes!

It turns out that this kid can also use a bow!

While thinking about it, Xiao Li quickly shook the axis to rotate the angle and height of the siege crossbow, and shouted to his comrades who were holding the crossbow string behind him: "Full string, release!"

"Boom!"

I saw a strong man on standby behind the siege crossbow immediately pressed down the bracket with both hands, followed by a huge sound of tendon tendons, which shook Mo Zhongqing's ears slightly.

The giant bolt had pierced the sky and flew out like a spear in the night, but it looked thicker and bigger than the spear!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud muffled sound in the darkness of the night in the distance, and the giant crossbow bolt struck one of the four, heavily armed wells.

With Mo Zhongqing's eyes, he could even see that the crossbow arrows were still castrated after piercing through the wooden plank, and the heads of several Celestial Star soldiers behind him were shattered like bursting watermelons, and the splashes of blood stained the eyes of the other soldiers around him.

And a giant crossbow bolt only pierced the pillar on the top of one side, and did not stop the well.

Mo Zhongqing suddenly said, "I have an idea. ”

Xiao Li, who succeeded in the first blow, watched with some excitement as Lu Wengong personally gave him a crossbow arrow, and when he heard him say this, he smiled and said, "You say." ”

"The bottom floor of the well is surrounded by planks on all sides, and it seems to be an enclosed space, and I wonder if there will be any convenient mechanism hidden in it, because it should be difficult for those thirty or forty people alone to push the behemoth. ”

As he spoke, Mo Zhongqing compared the angle of archery with both hands towards Xiao Li.

Xiao Li immediately understood when he saw it, and the strong man behind him pushed the siege crossbow to the arrow battlement of the city wall, personally adjusted the string and turned, lowered the crossbow mouth, and then shouted again: "Release!"

As soon as the words came out, Mo Zhongqing heard the heart-wrenching crossbow string "boom" again, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that the giant arrow shot out like a fishspear.

Hearing only a "bang", the huge arrow glowing with cold light instantly sank into the bottom of the well. The well was shaken, and no matter how hard the people around him pushed it, he couldn't take a step forward!

"It worked!"

The crossbowman Xiao Li couldn't help laughing, and the other soldiers, including Lu Wengong and others, were all excited.

They all knew in their hearts that as long as they had the nightingale-like eyes of Mo Zhongqing, a young man, and the accurate shooting of the crossbowman, then these twenty or thirty would not be afraid!

So the next step was much simpler, every time Mo Zhongqing raised his bow, a rocket was fixed on a well, it was like a mark in the dark night, which would surely attract a giant arrow like death.

One, two, three......

As the crackling sound continued to sound one after another, four or five wells had "extinguished the fire", and the wells under the jurisdiction of Xiao Li's crossbow arrow were almost "completely wiped out".

And this other well is very close to the city, and the distance between the two is only ten zhang, and anyone can see the true body of the well at this distance.

Not far from this row of wells, one of the wells with wooden planks is also prominently listed, and it is obvious that this one can be used to "bridge" with the city.

At this point, all the wells were exposed to the range of the siege crossbows, and it stands to reason that they should be pushing at full speed.

And the well used to "bridge" stopped in place at the moment!

Mo Zhongqing was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the Jing Yan's actions clearly, his face suddenly became ugly!
