Chapter 280, Three Bow Crossbow VS Siege Tower
Fortunately, Li Kuo adopted a slow attack to advance. Otherwise, according to Zhao Pan's firepower, a hail of rocks and bullets would have dealt a devastating blow to the fast attack troops!
But this was the first time that his slow attack was suppressed so thoroughly. If the enemy's previous attacks were compared to violent storms, then this time, the overwhelming rain of stone bullets was equivalent to a tsunami. One wave almost killed him.
I photographed him on the beach.
But everyone knows that the focus of this battle is not on the large army at all, but on the two siege towers and three three-bow crossbows. This is the key to the defeat of this siege battle!
The three three-bow crossbows placed on the city wall opened fire wildly, following Zhao Pan's instructions and constantly bombarding the siege tower on the left. As the distance got closer, the pressure on both sides continued to increase.
.
It was the first time for the soldiers pushing the siege tower to encounter such a ferocious attack. Every step they took was frightening. The soldiers who controlled the three-bow crossbows and fired felt like they had seen a ghost in their hearts. In addition to the city walls,
It was the first time that their siege weapon encountered something so resistant to beating.
Holding up the monocular telescope in his hand, Zhao Pan directed the slingers to suppress the enemy's advance, while also always paying attention to the situation of the siege tower on the left.
As the distance got closer, the destructive power of the heavy crossbows became more and more powerful. After a series of indiscriminate bombardments from three three-bow crossbows, the entire outer bronze armor plate was bombarded beyond recognition.
As Zhao Pan's thoughts were whirling around, three more heavy crossbow arrows flew out in a row, and with the roar, the siege tower they hit was on the verge of collapse.
The violent shaking made the soldiers hiding in the siege tower stunned. Then before he could take a breath, there was another loud noise, and several sharp bronze fragments flew into the face of a soldier.
It cut his cheek, and the scene that followed him was so frightening that his legs trembled and he sat down on the ground on the spot!
"Hit, penetrated! The bronze armor plate was penetrated!"
Seeing the heavy crossbow nailed directly to the bronze armor plate of the siege tower, the defenders standing on the city wall went crazy! The enemies outside the city also went crazy, and the difference was that the former were ecstatic, and the second
The reader is probably just scared...
"Fire! Keep firing! Blow it up!" At that moment, Zhao Pan, who was standing on the city wall, changed from his usual calm and mountain-like image. The emotions that had been suppressed for too long burst out in an instant.
After that, he fell into an unprecedented excitement!
The crossbowmen who had been fighting until now and finally saw clear results suddenly became more energetic. They installed heavy crossbow arrows, adjusted the attack angle, and all their operations became more agile.
The indiscriminate bombardment of three three-bow crossbows continued, affecting the nerves of everyone on the battlefield. At the rear of the siege army, as the general leading this army, Li Kuo's face could be said to be
It was extremely solemn. Well, he did not deny that he had had some hope for the siege tower, hoping that it would be as indestructible as before in this siege battle.
But the reality fully showed its bones at this moment. Looking at the siege tower that was pierced by three heavy crossbows in the blink of an eye, Li Kuo still feels unreal to this day.
a feeling of.
After all, the status of the siege tower in the minds of their Zhou soldiers was equivalent to the three-bow crossbow in Luo Ji's hands. But now, the trump card of their Zhou army, the siege tower that was indestructible in siege battles, was actually really
Is it about to be breached?! The blow to morale at that moment was undoubtedly huge.
Fortunately, as a commanding general, Li Kuo had quite strong control over his troops. After activating his skills to boost morale, he quickly stabilized the situation and issued a series of new instructions.
The fierce battle continued on this battlefield, and finally with a shocking loud noise, the crumbling siege tower was finally completely destroyed at this moment!
The soldiers of the city defenders were completely in ecstasy. However, before they could cheer for a while, a violent muffled sound suddenly came from the right side. It was another siege tower of the siege army! As they focused their fire on the attack
When the siege tower on the left was attacked, the siege tower on the right had already hit their city wall hard!
Faced with such a situation, Zhao Pan stood on the wall with a calm expression. Since he had decided to defeat them one by one, of course he had to be mentally prepared to attack them one by one. Therefore, he ordered three three-bow crossbows to focus their fire.
While attacking the siege tower on the left, a group of spearmen was also directly deployed to guard the wall on the right. This move was undoubtedly aimed at the siege tower on the right.
At that time, once the soldiers hiding in the siege tower came out, he would let the group of spearmen guarding the outside fight back all those soldiers in one go.
By the way, Luo Ji picked up these spears ready-made from the armories in Dongjing City and Songhe City...
Quickly re-confirm the situation on the battlefield. Until now, the enemy's advancing troops have almost pushed out of the city gate. The value of the slingers has been maximized. Without hesitation, Zhao Pan saw
With a big wave of his hand, "All the slingers will throw the last round, and then all evacuate the city wall! All the shield and ax soldiers come forward! Pay attention to the ladders on the opposite side, don't let those ladders hit our wall!"
The replacement between troops was carried out very quickly. After hearing the order, the infantry troops waiting below quickly rushed up the city wall and replaced the slingers.
Zhao Pan basically doesn't need to worry about the situation here, so most of his attention now is focused on the siege tower that hit him!
The tightly closed bronze armor plate fell heavily on the wall of Songhe City like a suspension bridge, making a muffled sound, accompanied by an explosion of shouts of killing. In the tower of the siege tower, a group of shield axes
The soldiers rushed out frantically! For this team of shield and ax soldiers hiding in the siege tower, every time they rushed out of the siege tower and jumped on the enemy's wall, it was a matter of life and death.
The decision was made, it would be good if half of this group of people could go back alive.
However, reality gave them a hard blow at the moment the bronze suspension bridge fell, making them clearly feel the cruelty of reality. Sharp spears pierced them one after another, and some of them
The unlucky soldier was stabbed through on the spot. The spear, which was much longer than an ordinary spear, relied on its length advantage to stop the opponent's charge at this moment!
