The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 565

The two sides engaged in three consecutive rounds of artillery battle.

The catapults in Jinyang City seemed to have no effect.However, huge boulders were constantly falling around the Mohe people's catapult, and the splashed stone flakes caused a large number of casualties of Mohe soldiers.There was also a heavy catapult whose support was broken by stone chips and lost its combat effectiveness.

When Zhou Jun's flying stone return gun fired the fourth round, a flying stone directly hit Mohe's catapult.The huge force attached to the flying stone directly blasted the catapult into pieces.

The surrounding soldiers were injured to varying degrees due to the falling wood chips and stones.After the boulder destroyed the catapult, it continued to move forward for a certain distance, killing and injuring more than ten Mohe newly trained technical talents before stopping.

Zhou Jun's new catapult machinery has a longer range than their catapults.

In this case, the catapults of the Mohe army could not pose a threat to the catapults of the Zhou army, but the Zhou army could continue to attack the Mohe army, so it was only a matter of time before all the catapults of the Mohe army were destroyed.

That's an inch long!One inch strong! ...It should be one hundred feet long, one hundred feet strong!
Range is justice!

Nurhachi also noticed that his catapult had stopped firing, so he sent his own soldiers to inquire.

"Report to the patriarch! Tong Tongjia, who is in charge of the catapult, reported at night that the performance of the catapults in Jinyang City is better than that of our catapults obtained from Zhou Jun's treasury, and the range is farther. Therefore, Commander Tong Tongjia ordered Temporarily retreat the catapults to avoid the sharpness of the Zhou army's catapults, and study the countermeasures to defeat the enemy."

Nurhachi was not angry when he heard the words. This kind of technical barrier cannot be changed by will.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, our Mohe tribe can dominate Jianzhou not by relying on these scraps of metal! Only the scimitar in our hands, the bow and arrow on our back, and the war horse under our crotch are truly worthy of our trust!"

I saw Nurha Chi's eyes turned cold: Go up to the siege and rush to the car!
"..."

"..."

For a while, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

What about the scimitar, bow and arrow, and war horse? !How did it become a siege attack? !

But Nurhachi didn't have the slightest sense of slapping his face. Instead, he saw that his subordinates didn't move, and immediately said angrily: "What are you still doing there? Hurry up and prepare to attack the city!"

Nurha Chi's personal guard twitched slightly, didn't his prince realize that he was slapping him in the face?

In the end, the personal guards around him still sent orders from the front army.

Kong Youde was very satisfied with Nurha's behavior.

From Kong Youde's point of view, being a lord means being thick-faced and dark-hearted, what sincerity?What benevolence?It was all played by tricking the common people!

Only people like Nurhachi can be called Mingjun!
"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

In the Mohe army formation, there was a sound of vigorous shouting.

Several huge siege vehicles were pushed forward.

This is one of the traditional siege vehicles of the Zhou army. The siege chariot made of cowhide, hardwood, and steel can resist the attacks of arrows and rolling logs and stones.The huge battering ram was wrapped in the car, leaving only a hole for the siege engine to hit the city gate.

There are also ten steel shields on both sides of the vehicle, which can resist arrows with the person pushing the vehicle.

A siege vehicle can hold twelve people, and it is specially designed to smash into the city gate.

With the sound of the heavy horn as a signal, the offensive of the Mohe army resumed.

Teams of elite Mohe archers began to cruise to the side of the city wall. The howling oxen and purple bamboo canopy were too great a barrier to attacking the city, so they had to deal with the wooden shed.

After thinking about it just now, Nurhachi thought of a way to deal with the wooden shed.

Both leather and bamboo are afraid of fire. If these tents are ignited with rockets, they can kill Zhou's army instead.

As for setting fire, it was too easy for the Mohe army. They were best at burning, killing and looting.

"Rocket!"

The Mercedes-Benz bow rider ignited the fire on the arrow!
Since Yu Yanyi made this wooden shed, he naturally didn't only consider the pressure of the stone bullets.

"Pour water!"

There is a row of Zilin bamboos on the top of the wooden shed, all the bamboo joints have been opened, and there are many man-made holes on the bamboo poles.

Several Zhou soldiers frantically turned the handles on both sides of the shed, and used them as human-powered water pumps to pump water into the hollow Zilin bamboo on the roof of the wooden shed.

The water flowed out through the holes of the Zilin bamboo, and completely wet the howling cowhide.

The ranger, who had been cruising back and forth under the city wall, started to shoot rockets at the city wall while galloping, trying to light the cowhide wooden shed.

But after the howling cowhide got wet, he was not afraid of the rocket at all, and as the water flowed down from the hollow Zilin bamboo, the rocket was wiped out immediately.

Occasionally, a few shot at the city wall, but the city wall is covered with bluestone floor tiles and floors, so how can it be burned?
Seeing this, Yu Yanyi felt relieved.

Yang Xueshi, the minister of Dali Temple, said something that won Yanyi's heart deeply.

Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

Before that, although the fire in the experiment could not damage the cowhide, Yu Yanyi still couldn't guarantee that there would be no accidents.

"Bowman! Fight back!" Zhou Jun started to fight back.

The rain of arrows poured down from Jinyang City again.

The siege chariots of the Mohe people under the city have also approached the city wall.

After three days of bloody battle, the moat under the city wall had been leveled with corpses and sandbags, and the Mohe people even laid planks on the moat for the convenience of attacking.

Four large siege vehicles came to the edge of the moat.

Every siege vehicle is surrounded by a large number of Mohe soldiers holding iron shields.

In addition, there were [-] elite Mohe infantry, who carried the wooden ladders and climbed the city wall.

Zhao Tianlin, the frontline commander at the east main gate, could see clearly from the tower.

Let the crossbowman aim at the Mohe soldiers around the siege vehicle and start shooting.

"The enemy holding the ladder is just a suspicious soldier who attracts our attention. Wait for them to get close and deal with them. Aim at the soldiers around the siege vehicles!"

In the continuous offensive and defensive battles, Zhao Tianlin has already seen that the Mohe people are not good at attacking the city at all. If they are to climb the city wall, it is better to break through the city wall directly.

The rain of arrows fell on the siege vehicle, but it was not painful to the fully armed siege vehicle, and it was impossible to stop the attack of the siege vehicle.

Zhao Tianlin watched the slow progress on the city wall, but he rushed to the city without hesitation, his eyes were solemn, and he thought to himself: This car has a cowhide and steel shield on the outside, and the arrows are hard to hurt. Why don't you put him close and think about it? Method.

Just when Zhao Tianlin was thinking of using fire to attack, a burst of shouts came from the direction of Dengcheng Ma Road.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Two Niu Cheng pulled a cart from the boarding road to the city wall.

"Old General Zhao, I've brought you good things." The captain of the Yulin Military Academy led the ox cart to Zhao Tianlin's side.

"Come! Come! Come! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" On top of the bullock cart was a big guy, covered with a thick layer of canvas.

It was only when they came to the edge of the city wall that the bullock cart stopped, and the leading captain immediately lifted the canvas covering the bullock cart.

A simple bed crossbow appeared in the sunlight.

The bed crossbow is about one foot three feet long, and the crossbow arm is about eight feet long. It is made of two large bows, which are placed opposite to each other at the front and rear of the thick crossbow arms.

When this weapon of war appeared in front of everyone, everyone's eyes lit up.This is the masterpiece of the Tianji crossbow among the three Tiangong crossbows of Dazhou, the Tianji city-breaking crossbow.

A plate of Tianji crossbow has the power of only five oxen, but this Tianji city-breaking crossbow has the power of nine oxen. It is made by master craftsmen and can shoot [-] steps.

"Hurry up, test fire!"

Zhao Tianlin, as a veteran on the battlefield who had followed the four founding kings, naturally knew the power of the Tianji city-breaking crossbow, and immediately urged everyone to shoot.

However, although this Heavenly Secret City Breaking Crossbow is powerful, it is also extremely complicated to operate.
A soldier needs to use a thick rope with hooks at both ends, hook one end to the crossbow string, and the other end to hook the hub behind the bed crossbow. , and then install the giant crossbow gun.

Finally, the soldiers manipulating the Tianji City Breaking Crossbow aimed at the target and fired the crossbow gun.

Just when everyone was about to operate, the bearded monk Xuan Cheng stepped forward.

"Get out of the way, let Sajia come!"

I don't know what storytelling I heard, the great monk Xuancheng claimed to be from a poor monk to Laozi, and now to the Sajia!

Monk Xuancheng was originally a master of Yuanhua Realm. He has the Shaolin Zhenshan unique skill "Yi Jin Jing", and he is also a master of body training.

It is not an exaggeration to use a sentence of infinite power!
With his own strength, he easily turned the shaft that required seven wrestlers to turn.

Seeing this, Zhao Tianlin went into battle himself.

Of course, such crossbow arrows cannot be used to deal with ordinary Mohe soldiers, and it is not a loss to shoot and kill one person.

It is natural to target those enemies with high strategic value.

For example, the siege vehicles approaching the city wall at this moment seem to be of high value.

And the target is bigger and easier to hit.

Zhao Tianlin locked the target, and then pulled the trigger.

Although it's just such a simple action as pulling the trigger, it can't be done by a wrestler.

"call!"

An arrow shot.

Of course, this arrow is indeed a bit longer than ordinary feathered arrows. It is more than one foot long, and it is much longer than ordinary war spears, as thick as the mouth of a bowl.

Driven by the powerful potential energy of the bowstring of the Tianji bankruptcy crossbow, the crossbow arrows shot out quickly.It turned into a black light and hit the siege chariot without hindrance, and then accompanied by several screams, passed through the chariot and flew backward for more than [-] feet before inserting it on the ground.

The three Mohe soldiers were pierced into candied haws by the crossbow gun and nailed to the ground.
The siege chariot was also shot through a big hole by the crossbow bolts of the bed crossbow.Near the gap is a blood mist brought out by the crossbow arrows.The siege vehicles that had been advancing slowly also stopped and stopped moving forward.

"Yo! An arrow piercing through, this power is not small!" Xuan Cheng looked at the power of the Tianji city-breaking crossbow, and couldn't help but patted his bald head, "If this arrow hits everyone..."

If you don't dodge it with light work, even if the crossbow spear of Tianji city breaking crossbow doesn't have the function of breaking the gang, even if Xuancheng's diamond indestructible body is extremely brilliant, and the true energy is extremely deep, I'm afraid it can't stop the power of this crossbow spear.

Without him, it's just flying with great strength.

Old General Zhao Tianlin couldn't help but patted the bed crossbow when he saw the scene of one arrow smashing the car, and said, "Hurry up and shoot another arrow! Shoot that car to pieces!"

Although he is a veteran in the battlefield, since the decisive battle with Dagan, he has rarely used this city-breaking crossbow. See you today, and he is still shocked by its power.

Xuan Cheng at the side heard Zhao Tianlin's words, and immediately started to move, turning the shaft.

If it was another person, it would not be so easy to serve this master Tianjinu well. Even if seven strong men exert their strength at the same time, it would take a lot of effort.

Although the process is not cumbersome, it is indeed troublesome.

There is still Xuan Cheng, a large human-powered crossbow weapon, and the rate of fire immediately increases.

Zhao Tianlin destroyed a siege chariot with another arrow, but when the third arrow was about to be fired, the siege chariot had already rushed to the bottom of the city, and the adjustment of the shooting angle of the Tianji crossbow was not large, so it was impossible to continue attacking.

"Several of you, control this bed crossbow here, select important targets in the Mohe army to shoot, and the others are ready to fight!"

Zhao Tianlin drew out the battle sword at his waist, and a large number of stones and wood were transported up the city wall by Minzhuang's ox cart.

Dozens of houses near the city wall were destroyed by huge boulders thrown by Mohe catapults yesterday.

After Yu Yanyi ordered the people to tidy up for a while, he sorted out all the available stones and wood, and piled some of them on the city wall for the soldiers on the city wall to throw downwards to attack.
-
Northern Territory, Jizhou.

A fine cavalry was passing by at high speed, it was the Tabai Battalion under Yang Guo's command.

In the northern border, Yang Guo was promoted to General Huyao because of his meritorious service, and served as the commander of the Tabai Battalion.

This time, Yang Qingyuan appointed Yang Guo as the vanguard general and the vanguard of the army.

Yang Guo also displayed his excellent military talent, Ta Baiying served as a light cavalry for the Tiance Army, swift as the wind, he was like an extraordinary young general.

Yang Guo wiped out all the Mohe rangers he encountered along the way, in order to ensure that the movement of the army as much as possible, and no one would know.

Yang Qingyuan did not choose the nearest Bingzhou to go south to support Jinyang City, but detoured to Jizhou from the north of Bingzhou.

Going south from Bingzhou can certainly support Jinyang City in the shortest time, but it can't solve the problem.

Yang Qingyuan has great ambitions. He wants to bypass Jizhou, use the big river as a barrier, completely cut off the Mohe tribe's northward retreat, and attack the Mohe tribe from the rear.

The main force of the Bimohe tribe will fight him decisively.

The Tiance Army and the Jinyang Defenders attacked from front to back. With the rear route cut off, Yang Qingyuan was [-]% sure to completely wipe out the main force of the Mohe Clan, completing his work in one battle.

"General Yang! The front door is the Yanmen Pass! The Northern Territory has been defeated, and the Yanmen Pass has been occupied by the Mohe people! If we want to continue going south and east, we can only break through the Yanmen Pass!"

Yanmen Pass was an important pass of the Central Plains Dynasty. However, after the Taizu regained the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, he pushed the battle line northward, which caused Yanmen Pass to no longer function as before. Therefore, the Great Zhou changed Yanmen Pass to Yanmen County. Prosperous, but the defensive force is not as strong as before. After the defeat of Tumu Fort, it was defeated by the Mohe Army.

Yang Guo took out a map from his pocket, and looked at it with the compass.

"If we go around from the north to the south of Yanmen, how long will it take!?"

"It will take at least a day!"

Hearing this, Yang Guo already thought about it, "Then follow me to the south of Yanmen!"

"go!"

"drive!"
