1367 Traditional Defense Means

The attacking troops under the city were not idle either. The sword and shield soldiers climbed up with shields, while the Guanning army at the top of the city was not willing to be outdone and fought back! They threw stones from the cliffs and shot arrows outwards, trying to stop the opponent's soldiers from climbing.

With their counterattacks, soldiers often smashed down from the long ladder and screamed and fell to the ground! When they counterattacked, they would be shot densely by musketeers under the city! From time to time, soldiers who poked out their bodies were hit by musketeers! Either they would fall from the top of the city or be brought back to the inside of the city wall by the huge force of lead bullets! But no matter what the result, if they were hit by musketeers, they would be seriously injured even if they were not killed!

The musket soldiers under the city are not easy either! In a position that is difficult to reach between muskets and direct-sighting cannons, a large number of archers, under the command of the officers, covered the musket soldiers with batches of ejected feather arrows! Forced the musket soldiers to move their positions constantly!

Even so, people in the musket soldiers were often caught and dragged out of the team! After all, they looked up at the city wall, and their faces were almost defensive! Once they were shot into the face by feather arrows falling from high altitude, they were almost dead!

Moreover, there are not only such simple defense methods in the city, but also more defensive equipment is being put into use!

On a mercedes, Guanning soldiers stretched out an iron frame and fixed it. Then two soldiers carried the wolf and threw it off the frame!

The wolf was slapped three feet square and more than two inches thick iron plates, and the downward side was covered with spikes! As long as it was hit by the wolf, the person would instantly turn into a ball of flesh and blood that was invisible!

This time, two sword and shield soldiers were hit! One was unlucky and the bones and tendons were broken and turned into a pile of rotten flesh! The other soldier's right arm was taken down directly! The soldier screamed and threw away the shield, covered his wound, retreated repeatedly, and was then taken away by someone!

At this moment, before the wolf's shot was taken back by the winch, the two soldiers had already jumped onto the two wolf's shots, pressed the wolf's shot with their weight, and took turns to hit the part where the iron plate and the iron chain were combined, trying to destroy the wolf's shot!

The soldiers on the city wall tried hard to push the winch, and finally pulled the wolf card with them! Just between the two soldiers

When the wolf's slap was about to rise into the air, the iron ring connected to the iron chain of the wolf's slap was finally broken by two people!

After the chain that endured the huge tension was broken, it soared into the air like a poisonous snake, and a soldier holding a hammer was pulled away! But at least the wolf slap was destroyed! Unfortunately, there were more than one wolf slap hit on the top of the city!

Not far from the wolf's slap, there was a wolf's slap with two people swaying up. The two soldiers on it were unstable and had to jump down! The wolf's slap was successfully taken back to the city! He would be thrown down soon!

At the same time, many wooden cabinets made of thick wood are stretched out on the top of the city. The wood of this kind of wooden cabinet is very thick, just like a coffin with half a bottom! The bottomless part will be extended out of the city, and the soldiers inside can lie in the wooden cabinet to release muskets or throw stones down the city!

In this case, you either rely on the direct-aid cannon to break it bit by bit, or you have to rely on the musket soldiers to shoot up against the city wall, which is very difficult to deal with!

In short, the Guanning Army fought against the Qing army for many years, and they had rich experience in defending the city! Although they lost all their cannons, they were proficient in every plan to defend the city passed down by their ancestors! And any plan was enough to cause huge damage to their opponents!

To be honest, if Liu Pei had not had enough artillery, this battle would not be able to be fought! Not to mention capturing Shanhaiguan, if he would not be able to destroy all his strength by the defenders of Shanhaiguan, then Wu Sangui would be incompetent!

Both sides fought fierce offensive and defensive battles around the battlements close to the hook ladder, and at this time other heavy siege equipment also gradually approached the city wall! In particular, cloud ladders and tower cars were the most useful.

Because the cart is slightly higher than the city wall, it can directly make soldiers jump into the city! The ladder's pedal is very wide, and soldiers can rush to the city without climbing and running all the way! In addition to these two, other heavy equipment can also pose a very high threat to the city!

As soon as these kinds of equipment were approaching the city wall, soldiers rushed up! The soldiers on the stairs opened the baffle and protected their bodies with shields to rush towards the city wall. The heavy ladder was ironed by the soldiers.

The chain was pulled up and leaned against the city wall, and the soldiers held up their shields and rushed towards the city wall along the stairs!

The whole battle instantly entered a white heat! The sound of metal collisions on the city walls, the sound of fighting, the roar of muskets, and the bombardment of cannons, all kinds of sounds were stirred up on the battlefield! From time to time, special fireworks took off, illuminating the entire battlefield from the darkness, as if they were afraid that God would not be able to see the battle on the battlefield clearly!

Now three of the four trellis on the battlefield have been lit, and only one trellis is still sending troops to the top of the city wall. The only thing that can stand firm on the city wall is the group of soldiers rushing down from the trellis!

Because the platform on the top of the building car is relatively wide and can accommodate more than a dozen people on the platform, these people can form formations and cover each other after jumping on the top of the city, so that they can survive for a longer time! Moreover, there are soldiers in the building car behind them jumping down to join the battle group!

But on the contrary, they are also the target of the Guanning Army's key attack! No matter what kind of weapons they are, they are now greeting here! Spears, swords, three-eyed muskets, and even people throw stones into the crowd!

So these soldiers who rushed up the city wall were not easy! They also had to protect themselves when they desperately resisted the enemy's attack. The most important thing was that they had to protect the building car from being ignited by the enemy! You should know that the two sides of this building car are now the only building car that can quickly send troops to the city wall!

Although the people on other ladders kept charging towards the city, they never broke through the defense line at the city! Even if someone jumped onto the city, they would be killed after a short battle, or driven to the city.

While the two sides were fighting in the city, three people suddenly rushed out of the Guanning Army's crowd! The sword and shield soldiers looked up to see these three people clearly. As soon as they looked up, the expression of a soldier at the beginning changed! He opened his mouth and shouted: "Bai..."
