I’m The King Chapter 1408: : Han Banner World (Ninety Eight) Shocked

The attack surface on the opposite side of Wuguan is narrow, and it is such a small area that it is impossible for the side attacking Wuguan to deploy too many troops. If they want to attack, they can only attack from this narrow attack surface. One of the most important reasons why Wuguan is easy to defend and difficult is that for the defender, the focus and purpose of the defense is extremely clear. As long as this area is controlled, the enemy will be able to look at the pass and sigh.

It is also for this reason that the large long-range weapons of Wuguan are not installed on the city wall, but on the open space behind the city wall. As soon as the calibration was done, several rows of throwing machines completely covered this area from far to near. The soldiers operating the throwing machine don't need to see the enemy, they only need to operate according to the order from the top of the city wall, and they can throw the explosive package where they want to throw it.

This arrangement@猪@猪@岛@小说ww.zzhdo.om has another advantage, which is to prevent the throwing machine from being suppressed by the enemy's long-range weapons, and minimize the damage of your own long-range heavy weapons, because With the cover of the city wall, the opponent cannot see the setting of their throwing weapons, so they can only hit blindly, and the hit rate can be imagined.

But after the Han army occupied Shaoxi Mountain, this problem was easily solved. On the top of the mountain, the artillerymen of the Han army knew the position of the throwing machine at a glance. For them, this was just a fixed-point shooting.

Zhang Qian soon understood how painful it was for him to lose Shao Xi.

The Han army on the opposite side has not launched an attack for a long time. The Han army on Shaoxi Mountain took the lead in attacking. Falling like a meteor, this shell did not hit Wuguan's throwing machine position, and deviated by about tens of meters. With a loud bang, it landed in a nearby area where sandbags were piled up. These sandbags were originally set up to prevent attackers from using fire attacks. In the sound of the explosion, those sandbags weighing dozens of kilograms were thrown into the air like toys, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.

The eyes of the soldiers on the city turned to behind them by coincidence, and Zhang Qian was no exception. The opponent's intentions. And the throwing machine is on the position. The throwing soldiers of the Chu army who were busy stopped their movements in unison, and looked at the mess on the side.

Suddenly, these throwers understood a truth. It turned out that their position was not only not a safe place, but the enemy's first target of attack.

At the next moment, everyone's eyes turned to the direction of Shaoxi Mountain. Zhang Qian's hands suddenly clenched into fists, clenched and his face turned pale.

On top of the mountain. Long Bin pursed his mouth in dissatisfaction, and looked at the commander of the artillery battalion: "Ball, this cannon is outrageous."

"This first shot was originally used to correct the trajectory!" The artillery battalion commander laughed: "Now I understand, Captain Long. Just look at it!"

"Battle No. 1, the ballistic correction is completed, and the loading is complete!"

"No. 2 artillery position, the ballistic correction is completed. Loading is complete!"

With the raising of small red flags, powerful reports came from more than a dozen artillery positions.

"Fire positions one to fifteen in sequence!" The smile on the artillery battalion commander's face disappeared. ordered loudly.

"No. 1 gun, fire!" The gunner's hoarse voice sounded, and there was a loud noise, and the smoke filled the No. 1 gun position.

Long Bin covered his ears tightly, took a few steps back, and said in a low voice, "Damn it, it's really loud, no wonder the artillery guys all speak loudly, this is in the artillery battalion If you stay for a long time, you must become deaf!"

He covered his ears and stretched his neck, trying to see the effect of this round of shelling clearly, but he couldn't see anything clearly because of the smog in front of him.

The second round of shooting from Shaoxi Mountain covered the throwing positions in Wuguan City. Rows of throwing machines were neatly arranged like trees. Swept by the strong wind, it has become messy. The flying wood residues and parts of the throwing machine, as well as the throwing soldiers who were too late to escape, showed the heavy loss of the Wuguan defenders. Forget it, the key is that the explosive packages ready to be launched have been installed on the throwing machines one by one. These things were ignited and detonated by the fire caused by the shelling. The power of the explosion was no less than that of the attack from Shaoxi Mountain. This increased the effect of this attack.

The sound of the explosion finally stopped, and Zhang Qian stared blankly at the throwing machine position that was so powerful before, but it no longer exists at this moment, and dozens of throwing machines have turned into residues on the ground. The remaining one stood alone in the corner, and beside it were a few Chu State throwers who were frightened into stupidity.

With a bang, a chubby object dropped from the sky, just landed on the edge of the base of the trebuchet. It's not a cannonball, but a head that has been smashed into the sky. The part below the head has long since disappeared.

Finally stopped turning, the wide-open eyes above the blood-stained head stared straight at a soldier directly opposite, the soldier's dull eyes finally had a hint of spirituality, the soul seemed to return to the body, But in an instant, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, it jumped three feet high on the spot with a scream, and fell to the ground. It ran away with a miserable howl, and the miserable howl was always accompanied by him. The figure disappeared, still echoing in the air.

With a bang, there was another loud bang on Shaoxi Mountain, and the iron ball with the flames fell from the sky, this time it accurately hit the only intact throwing machine on the field. The sound of lah, this throwing machine is gone.

"Perfect!" On Shaoxin Mountain, the artillery battalion commander watched happily as the last throwing machine disappeared from his field of vision. This last shot was operated by him himself.

"Not bad, not bad!" Although Long Bin's ears were buzzing, he still couldn't help admiring loudly. In previous exercises, he had only seen a single cannon fired. It was the first time he had seen the shooting scene. "The power is infinite. With this thing, the peerless warriors in the world will disappear from now on. No matter who you are, once you shoot them, you will have nothing."

Long Bin felt a little regretful. With this thing, in the future, the enemy of a hundred people and the beheading of a thousand people may only exist in the storyteller's romance.

"Adjust the gun positions and prepare to attack the city wall. The division commander's general attack is about to begin." Long Bin ordered loudly, the loss of consciousness was only short-lived, and his thoughts were immediately drawn back to the battle in front of him.

"Adjust the gun position, replace the bombs, prepare to kill the resistance on the city wall, and open the way for the army!" The artillery battalion commander shouted.

The cannons began to slowly turn their black muzzles.

On Shaoxi Mountain, a firework flew into the air, and with a bang, it exploded into countless fiery red bright flowers, scattered like shooting stars, and seeing the scattered fiery red Han stars, Wuguan On the opposite side, under the banner of the Han Army's Central Army, the big drum was beating suddenly, and the attack bugle sounded immediately in each square formation.

Amidst the whirring sound, the newly spliced ​​siege vehicles moved forward slowly under the pull and push of the soldiers. When it is ready, it will be disassembled into pieces and put on the carriage and transported to the battlefield. When the battle is ready, the parts will be assembled again. The basic skeleton of the entire siege vehicle is made of loose steel, with tires installed on the bottom, and it can be pushed up. It doesn't take a lot of effort, and more importantly, this kind of siege vehicle, which is several feet high and almost flush with the city wall, also has considerable attack power. For the city guards, it is the death scythe that harvests life.

The entire exterior of this latest siege vehicle in the Han Dynasty is covered with iron plates. The iron plates are about the thickness of a finger. , in the eyes of the guarding soldiers, this thing is a steel monster. If there is anything else he is afraid of, it is that he is afraid of artillery like the Han Dynasty, or the throwing explosives in Wuguan City that could have been used against him. This is why Mei Hua wants to destroy all the throwing machines in the city immediately the reason.

In addition to the siege engine, the new division is also equipped with another siege weapon. This thing is similar to a bridge deck that grows obliquely. Sticking to the ground ~IndoMTL.com~ The entire device is tens of meters long, with twelve tires on each side of the bottom. The Han army called it a trestle. Above, the cavalry of the siege troops can directly ride their horses up the trestle to the wall, and the infantry can also rush up from above.

These two weapons that made the Chu army helpless are of course expensive. The price of each one is staggering. Now only the Young Guards are equipped, and other troops still cannot afford to equip them. of.

Zhang Qian stared at the slowly approaching monster. It is not that he has never seen similar weapons, but they were all made of forest heads. There are too many things that can destroy him, but now they appear in the The thing in front of him, even the bed crossbow, was helpless, the bed crossbow fired hit the target, at most it made him shake a few times, but the divine machine crossbow that followed was enough to make no living life near the bed crossbow.

How to keep it? I can't hold it anymore! Zhang Gan yelled in his heart.

"Get ready for battle, hand-to-hand combat!" He pulled out the saber at his waist. The only way to hold the city wall now is for the soldiers to fight hand-to-hand with the Han soldiers who are about to enter the city.

Rows of soldiers of the Chu army rushed to the city wall with their swords and spears in hand. Opposite them was a large siege engine slowly approaching. (To be continued.)
