Others or twist a head to look outside Pei said, "but not necessarily! If Jingzhou soldiers storm our thundercar, it’s not a decoration. What’s worse, the Yecheng wall is so tall and strong that the enemy does not forcibly attack the city, but it’s just an increase in casualties. "
"Let’s be careful! If something really goes wrong, we will all be unlucky. "An old man waved his hand and told his brothers.
Although it’s a full moon tonight, it’s a bit bright with moonlight and Chengtou torches everywhere, but the cold wind at night makes people impatient. Many foot soldiers huddle in Chengtou humble tents and wait nervously with anxiety.
The autumn wind whimpered and blew the flames in the brazier. The vigil turned and put his arms around the pike. He changed his shoulders and was a little sleepy when he was smoked by the brazier heat wave.
Several archers swore and walked to the near front foot and touched the man’s leg. The foot soldiers got up and let them go aside. The archers ignited the arrows through the brazier flame, and then bent their bows and arrows to throw several rockets out of the city. After flying for a while, they fell to the ground. The faint light could not shine far, but it was enough to see if there was a large enemy approaching.
"I told you that Jingzhou soldiers would not be full to support the siege at this time." An irate face with a scar muttered that it was obviously a good dream that was stirred to be so agitated.
Take the team leader to criticise "you talk a lot! Why don’t you go back and have your big dream in the Spring and Autumn Period! "
Scarface yawned and rubbed his eyes. He was about to go back to the account with his brothers, but he caught a glimpse of something. He grabbed the corporal’s arm and pointed out of the city. "There seems to be some movement!"
The corporal waved with a look, "Let the rocket go again!"
"Don’t!" Scarface immediately objected, "It seems that this is a sneak attack. If you don’t wait for the enemy to approach, you will suddenly throw arrows!"
Corporal shook his head. "Find out first! Why don’t you report it quickly! Send more brothers. "
But before the commander led others here, the corporal had already launched several rockets with his hand again, and several foot soldiers got up and looked around at the crib after being awakened by the vibration of bowstring and the broken arrows.
"PSST …" After seeing the movement outside the city, everyone can’t help but take a breath in a gasp.
Although the rocket was not bright enough and burned for a short time, the sight of the thundercar and the big brigade of Jingzhou army made the soldiers of Jun feel nervous. Perhaps the Jingzhou army outside the city realized that it was finally discovered by the defenders and soon lit torches to speed up the advance to the city.
"Enemy attack!" The corporal shouted at the top of his voice.
The warning bang soon rang and fell asleep. Cao Jun soldiers immediately emerged from the tent in Chengtou. The gunners rushed to the thunderbolt car, carrying stones and rotating winches. The noise in Chengtou also made Coss wake up quickly. The guards dressed up their armor and looked out before standing on the railing with a waist sword.
Outside the city, it’s like several fire dragons winding, and in the firelight, the thundercars are particularly ferocious.
"How far is it from the city? Can our army’s thundercar attack? " Cao Renyin was quite calm, which made some nervous departments feel uneasy. Many captains in charge of thunderbolt replied, "I can barely get there, but the threat is not great, or I can be more sure at that time."
Coss narrowed his eyes and asked the captain, "So the Jingzhou army thunderbolt car can’t attack our city head?"
The captain turned his head and looked at it carefully. He secretly calculated for a moment and affirmed that "it is absolutely impossible to attack us!" This distance jun thundercar can barely attack the enemy, even more impossible.
"But the enemy will stop?" Coss eyes a clot puzzled asked
If everyone knows? Can’t help but look at each other, but Jin Niu hesitated. "Could it be that Jingzhou Army lured the enemy?"
"Let the thunderbolt car try to attack one first!" Coss made it clear that no matter if the Jingzhou army had a purpose, he would not rule out the troops from going out of the city to fight. To hold on to the capital, the Jingzhou army can only leap and pass by unless it has wings. The safest way is to block the enemy outside the city with a thunderbolt. If the Jingzhou army stormed at the expense of human life, it will inevitably suffer heavy casualties, which will also be very beneficial to its own morale.
The captain took Coss’ order and turned and walked. Soon Chengtou Thunderbolt Car threw fireballs outside the city.
As dozens of fireballs rose one after another, the moonlight seemed to be dim for a few minutes, but it made Chengtou Jun soldiers see the enemy array more and more.
"July 9th ….." Someone craned their necks and counted how many thunderbolts Jingzhou Army had dispatched.
After all, the fireball thrown by Jun’s thundercar was too dazzling in the night. If it weren’t for the slow-moving thundercar, the soldiers of Jingzhou Army would still be easy to avoid, and the formation of Jingzhou Army was very loose, even if it fell into the marching queue, there would be enough places to avoid it.
To Coss’ surprise, Jingzhou Army’s thundercar stopped and seemed ready to project it. Although it was hard to see because of darkness and long distance, it was still possible to find that many foot soldiers beside the thundercar were preparing through the fireball that had not been extinguished.
When the Jingzhou Army Thunderbolt Car was launched, all the soldiers of the Chengtou Cao Army consciously avoided behind the crib, but there was no such frightening roar. Even if something fell to the ground or the city wall was hit by something, it was not as horrible as expected.
No rubble flying, and no crib mouth crashing down.
Some foot soldiers are curious and lean forward to look at the city. It is difficult to illuminate the city with the torch at the head of the city. You can vaguely see that there are many piles of dark things in the city.
However, the Jingzhou army thunderbolt car has been kept since it was launched. Although the Jun thunderbolt car has been throwing fireballs at each other, it is difficult to hit it.
"What is this side?" A Wu Changshi can’t figure out what the Jingzhou army threw over and threw the torch into the city in an attempt to light up the spot and get a real look.
The torch fell rapidly, but the corporal looked at it and saw a flame immediately after it fell!
The corporal shrank his neck consciously, then his eyes slowly opened and he shouted "fire!" " What is this moment he immediately white Jingzhou army projectile?
"quick! Get the sand quickly! " This corporal has a lot of experience, but there is not much sand thrown at the head of the city after setting fire. The most terrible thing is that the enemy thundercar keeps throwing bundles of firewood!
A woodpile has already flown to Chengtou, where it was ignited by a torch or brazier, and immediately burst into flames. Although it was thrown out of the city by nearby Jun soldiers with spears, it made the city fire spread more and more.
The defenders of Chengtou seem to be a little flustered. The heat wave rises from the city. Although the wall is tall, it can’t burn near for a while, but the hot steam still makes people feel breathless. Worse, some woodpiles can’t finish burning for a while, and smoke billows out, which makes people almost unable to open their eyes.
Coss didn’t expect Jingzhou army to throw a thundercar at the woodpile. Jingzhou army wanted to fire and burn Chengtou’s own thundercar, forcing the defenders to withdraw from Chengtou.
"It’s so diabolical!" One of the generals said angrily, "General, please allow me to lead my troops out of the city!"
Of course, it’s great to fight. Coss doesn’t feel anything about it, but this PianJiang will ask him not to agree. Even if he goes out of the city to fight, it won’t help. What matters now is to transfer the Chengtou thunderbolt car to the city, otherwise it will be even more difficult to defend this Ye city after the enemy thunderbolt car approaches.
The military order was carried out quickly, but it was too late. As more and more firewood piles were thrown into Chengtou, the fire inevitably spread, and the Chengtou thundercar had to be dismantled before it could be transported to the city. Obviously, it was impossible to come now.
It’s not just the thunderbolt car in Chengtou, but it’s not fortunate that Coss led the department to rush to the city. Soon after, the South Gate Tower burst into flames. Looking at it like a day, Chengtou Coss couldn’t help but shake his head with a wry smile. Even if he knew it before, it’s hard to prevent his eyes. This Chengtou can’t stay, but it’s not afraid that Jingzhou Army will climb and board the city. It’s the defense that Coss is now considering.
☆, Chapter one hundred and twenty The remnant city stands in Lebanon.
Outside the city of Yecheng, it looks distorted and unreal in the foaming at the mouth fire. Zhaoyun can’t help but pinch his fist, but Pang Tong next to him never smiles and Zhang Liao says something.
Even through the miles, people’s faces are still illuminated by the fire. It is very clear that Zhao Yun can feel the heat waves coming. It is conceivable that Chengtou must have broken the city based on fire. It is not a new tactic, but it is the first time that a thundercar throws a woodpile.
"The general can now let the artillery battalion continue to advance to the city!" Pang Tong’s words interrupted Zhao Yun’s thoughts. Zhao Yun nodded, "Let the artillery battalion go forward!"
As Zhao Yun ordered the auxiliary soldiers of the artillery battalion to cover and clear the obstacles outside the city, the thunderbolt car also pulled forward slowly with the help of manpower, and those huge stone bullets also rolled in from the rear.
Most of the soldiers in the artillery battalion were shirtless. Even so, they were sweating like a pig. The fire in the city was too big. In some places, the flames were even higher than the city head.
Flames, heat waves, and smoke covered the moonlight. The South Gate Tower was like a flaming torch, illuminating the nearby miles like day.
"I’m afraid the city gate will be burned if I burn it like this?" A full head big sweat Jingzhou army foot soldiers to front what long asked.
What long head also didn’t answer "burn out the gate? People don’t know that the stone blocks the city hole? "
"Let’s thunderbolt car to blocked will not be afraid! I will give it another bang! " It seems that this foot soldier has great confidence in the thundercar, but he soon thought of another question and asked the captain, "We can’t rush through the wall because of such a big fire?"
What long didn’t good the spirit back stared his one eye denounced "where did you come from so many questions? Let’s just follow orders! "
Say what long stop hand wiped his forehead sweat low way "and they were afraid to break the wall still have to fight a hard battle ….."
Jingzhou army thundercar pushed to the predetermined position and immediately threw stone bullets at the city wall. Without Cao Chengtou thundercar, the soldiers of the artillery battalion fought back more and more hard from weekdays. At this time, they showed their benefits to skillfully cooperate with the stone bullets whistling and hitting the city wall in the fire.
"Boom!" The city wall swallowed by the flames exploded several times in a row, and large pieces of rubble splashed down to make the city fire weak.
Although the city jun soldiers are separated by this wall, when they hear such a noise, some of them splash to the city with rubble falling and smashing armor, and tinkling into a piece.
A foot soldier of Cao Jun said to his fellow villagers, "I’m afraid this wall will collapse."
"How can it be so unbearable?" Villager is a big grins eyebrow said, "don’t just listen to this movement, it’s not so easy to smash this wall! You can rest assured that it is. "
They used to be the city guards. After the fire burned, they withdrew with the distribution schools. Now the city has a temporary rest.
Talk to see the team "come and see someone sitting with his back against the wall and kick" get up! Wait for the shock to die here? "
At the root of the city wall, many foot soldiers got up in a hurry. This is the corner where the thundercar throws a bullet. They are most content to be killed by the wall. But it is the first time that they have heard that this kind of situation is difficult to happen. No matter how powerful the stone bomb is, it is impossible to cause such a consequence. It is just that the famous man is holding his breath and can’t hide his laziness.
Compared with near the gate is a piece of land.
"Hua!" Towers, tiles, rubble and burning purlins fell to the ground, and Mars was everywhere. Jun soldiers involuntarily retreated a few steps near the besieged gate.
Coss sat on the horse and tightened the reins in his hand, but he looked calm and didn’t panic at all.
Although forced to retreat from Chengtou, Coss didn’t feel that Ye could not keep the defenders of the city. It was not so easy to attack Ye if it was over ten thousand.
"Is the Thunderbolt ready?" See a captain in charge of the thundercar in a hurry to Coss immediately asked him.
The captain hesitated and replied, "It’s ready …"
"What is it?" Coss frowned slightly and asked, he doesn’t know much about thundercars, but now he has to rely on this unfamiliar ordnance to fight the enemy.
"Our army’s thunderbolt car needs to cross the city head first, so it is afraid that it will be difficult to attack the enemy." A captain explained to Coss.
Coss stunned with a wave of his hand and said, "Always try!"
After the death of the captain, Coss couldn’t help narrowing her eyes and thinking that it would be profitable for Jingzhou army to collapse the wall and defend its own houses, but what if Jingzhou army still attacked?
