Chapter 100 All-out War

"Woo——"

The sound of siege of the city sounded, and dense figures began to gather.

"It seems that the other party is coming this time."

Bailang shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him, "Everyone is cheering up! The archers carefully check their respective bows and arrows and the number of bows and arrows. The crossbowmen responsible for controlling the Eight Niu Crossbows all checked the Eight Niu Crossbows and heavy crossbows to ensure that everything was foolproof!"

The orders were issued quickly, and the changes in the atmosphere on the city wall made the soldiers of the defending troops tense up. At this time, as a loud horn sound came from a distance, the siege troops under the city began to advance, and Bai Lang's eyes fell on the two huge siege towers at the first time. According to what they had discussed before, these two siege towers were undoubtedly the most needed to be prepared for!

It is difficult to make any innovations in the siege routine, but this time, the siege army on the opposite side unexpectedly fought a little different.

The other party gave up the use of the bed crossbow. There is no doubt that Wang Ting was guarding against Xia Qi's Baniu Crossbow. After seeing the range and power of the ordinary bed crossbow, he pushed the bed crossbow out again, and the range was not as good as the opponent. Wasn't that waiting to be blown up by the opponent's Baniu Crossbow sniper?

In addition, although the new city is now captured by the enemy, it is his own city after all, and it is not beneficial to him to cause large-scale damage to the city walls.

In this way, Wang Ting simply pushed out his two siege towers, and the focus of the entire siege battle suddenly shifted from the common "breaking the city gate" to "capture the wall". It was obvious that he wanted to rely on his two siege towers with thick skin and strong flesh to push them up all the way, and then seize the city wall in one breath.

Faced with this changed routine, Bai Lang was very calm. After all, Xia Qi had already analyzed this style of play with him quite thoroughly. In short, first confirm the opponent's promotion configuration.

The axe and shield soldiers fought against the vanguard, followed by the halberd soldiers and the ladder troops. As the highlight of this siege battle, the two siege towers were placed on the left and right sides of the entire army formation. A large number of soldiers below were gathering enough strength and were pushing the siege tower to move forward slowly.

In order to protect these soldiers from being shot to death by arrows, the royal court also specially arranged two large shield troops to form a shield wall to protect them along the way. It is simply clear where the center of gravity of the entire military formation is.

The entire military formation was not pushing fast, but the calm aura made Bai Lang feel a hint of obvious pressure, making him fully realize that this battle would not be easy to fight.

"call--"

He exhaled a long breath, adjusted his breathing, and swept the white wolf's eyes, which was highly focused, over the advancing military formations on the opposite side again, and then ordered loudly, "Four Eight-Nuo Crossbows, after the opponent's siege tower enters the range, directly focus on the siege tower on the left, aim at the wheel at the bottom of the siege tower as much as possible to fight! The one on the right doesn't need to be careful."

After receiving the order from Bailang, the soldiers who manipulated the three Eight-Nua Crossbows quickly adjusted the attack angle of the Eight-Nua Crossbows. Then, when the siege tower entered their range, accompanied by a series of dull sounds, four huge heavy crossbow arrows flew out from the city wall one after another and blasted towards the siege tower on the left!

It was a long time to say that, and the moment when the heavy crossbow arrows bombarded the bronze baffle of the siege tower, the four consecutive loud noises were deafening, and their power and range were significantly stronger than those of ordinary bed crossbows.

Wang Ting's pupils shrank when he heard the loud noise, and he was in time for Xia Qi's

The attack power of the bed crossbow was very impressive, but he still couldn't help but react.

Wang Ting quickly glanced at him. After confirming that the siege tower was not seriously injured, the tone in his heart could not be relieved. The opponent's first round of attack attracted his attention. The four crossbows on the wall also gathered fire to the siege tower on the left of his army formation, but ignored the siege tower on the right. The opponent's intention to defeat one by one was obvious.

Everyone knows that as the distance gets closer, the destructive power of the crossbow will become stronger and stronger. He fought a battle for his whole life, but this is the first time he is worried about the safety of the siege tower.

On the other side, the white wolf standing on the wall was also shocked by the defense of the siege tower. Although the first round of attack of the Baniu Crossbow was stuck at the limit of the effective range, facing the bombardment of four heavy crossbow arrows, the siege tower could perform basically in a stable manner. There were definitely a lot of things underneath, stabilizing the entire center of gravity. This is probably the main reason why dozens of soldiers were pushing, but they still pushed so slowly, and the weight was not light.

Originally, if you directly attack the wheels under the siege tower and directly explode the wheels, the siege tower will basically be useless. But the problem is that in the era of cold weapons, long-range attacks have clear parabolas and the highest hit rate. Weapons are basically bows and arrows, while large equipment such as bed crossbows are inevitably sacrificed in terms of hit rate. If you ask the crossbow soldiers to operate the bed crossbow to attack the siege tower, it is no problem, but if you ask them to aim at the two rows of wheels under the siege tower to hit, it is making things difficult for people.

The battle continued. As the enemy's siege army progressed steadily, the archers began to shoot arrows wildly. The rain of arrows, like locusts, formed a powerful suppression force after wave, further reducing the advancing speed of the enemy's siege army.

Wang Ting tried to command the archers to counter-suppress the enemy troops, but the archers standing on the city wall already had a bonus, and instantly suppressed the archers' troops.

If the previous enemy offensives were compared to storms, then this time, the overwhelming rain of arrows would be like a tsunami, and a wave almost knocked him on the beach.

However, anyone knows that the focus of this battle is not on the large army, but on the two siege towers and four eight-ox crossbows. This is the key to the victory and defeat of this siege!

The three Eight-Nuo crossbows placed on the city wall opened fire crazily, and followed the instructions of the white wolf to continuously bombard the siege tower on the left. As the distance narrowed, the pressure on both sides continued to increase.

It was the first time that the soldiers who pushed the siege tower encountered such a fierce attack. Every step was so frightened. The soldiers who controlled the Baniu Crossbow to open fire were all terrified. In addition to the city wall, their siege weapon had encountered such a beating-resistant thing for the first time.

While commanding the stone-cattered soldiers to suppress the advance of the enemy's large forces, Bailang was also always paying attention to the situation of the siege tower on the left.

As the distance gets closer, the destructive power of the heavy crossbow arrows is becoming stronger and stronger. After a series of bombardment by four eight-ox crossbows, the bronze armor plates on the entire periphery have been bombarded beyond recognition.

As the white wolf thought flew out, four heavy crossbow arrows flew out, accompanied by the roar, and the siege tower was shaking.

The violent shaking made the soldiers hiding in the siege tower suddenly stunned. Then, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another loud bang, several sharp bronze fragments splashed on a soldier's face, slashing his cheeks, and the scene that caught his eyes scared him to tremble his legs and he sat down on the ground on the spot!

"Breaking...breaking through! The bronze armor plate was broken through!"

Looking at the heavy crossbow arrow nailed directly to the bronze armor plate of the siege tower, the soldiers guarding the city standing on the city wall went crazy! The enemies outside the city were also crazy, and the difference was that the former was ecstatic, while the latter was probably only terrified.

The crossbow soldiers finally saw the clear results of the battle until now, and they suddenly became excited. They installed heavy crossbow arrows and adjusted the attack angle, and all these operations became a little more flexible.

The bombardment of four eight-ox crossbows continued, affecting the nerves of everyone on this battlefield. Wang Ting's face was extremely solemn at the end of the siege army. Well, he would not deny that he had a slight expectation for the siege tower, hoping that in this siege battle, it would be as indestructible as before.

But reality fully demonstrated its skin at this moment. In the blink of an eye, the siege tower was pierced by four heavy crossbows one after another. Wang Ting still feels unreal.

The fierce battle continued to ferment on this battlefield, and finally, accompanied by a shocking sound, the shaking siege tower was finally completely destroyed at this moment!

The soldiers of the defending troops were completely in ecstasy. However, before they could cheer, a violent muffled sound suddenly came from the right, which was another siege tower of the siege army! When they gathered fire to attack the siege tower on the left, the siege tower on the right had already hit their city wall!

Faced with such a situation, the white wolf standing on the wall looked calm. Since he had decided to defeat one by one, he had to be mentally prepared to fight one by one. Therefore, while he ordered four eight-ox crossbows to gather fire to attack the siege tower on the left, he also directly transferred a team of spear soldiers to defend 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 spearmen guarding outside fight all the soldiers back in one breath.

Quickly re-confirm the situation on the battlefield. Until now, the enemy's propulsion troops are about to push outside the city gate. The value that the archers can play can be maximized. Without hesitation, Bailang immediately waved his hand and said, "All archers evacuate from the city wall, and all the axe and shield soldiers come forward! Pay attention to the ladders on the opposite side, and don't let those ladders be placed on our wall!"

The replacement between troops proceeded very quickly. After hearing the order, the infantry troops waiting below rushed to the city wall and replaced the archers.

The situation here basically doesn’t need to worry about Bai Lang, so most of his attention is focused on the siege tower that hit him!

The closed bronze armor plate fell heavily on the wall of the new city like a suspension bridge, making a dull sound of "bang". Within the tower of the siege tower, a group of axe and shield soldiers rushed out wildly! For the team of axe and shield soldiers hiding in the siege tower, every time they rushed out of the siege tower and jumped onto the enemy's wall, it was a life-and-death choice. It would be good if half of their group could go back alive.

However, the reality made them give them a heavy punch at the moment when the bronze suspension bridge fell, making them clearly feel the cruelty of reality. Sharp spears pierced over, and some soldiers with bad luck were stabbed in the spot. The spear, which was far longer than ordinary spears, used this length advantage to curb the other party's rush!
