Chapter 72 Modified Trebuchet

Shen Yifeng was thinking silently when a general came to him: "General Shen, when will we attack the city?"

"No hurry." Shen Yifeng frowned: "Let me think about it!"

"Do you think it's useless for us to attack the city like this?" The lieutenant suggested beside him: "Actually, if we want to reduce casualties, we can try to use trebuchets to attack the city!"

"Although the trebuchets do have a certain lethality to the soldiers defending the city wall, the trebuchets attack very slowly. Even if someone is hit by a stone, the enemy will definitely be filled with other people immediately." Shen Yifeng frowned. said with a brow.

"But... we can't stop taking any siege methods at all!" The lieutenant was a little anxious: "Listen, the other two gates are already at war!"

"If we can make the enemy on the city wall unable to defend in a short period of time, our people will be able to attack the city head at the fastest speed!" Shen Yifeng thought silently in his heart, and unknowingly, he thought of what the lieutenant said just now. trebuchet.

The trebuchet is a relatively clumsy long-range attack weapon. Under normal circumstances, the effect of the trebuchet used by the siege soldiers from the city to the outside of the city is more obvious, while the effect of the trebuchet used by the siege soldiers outside the city to attack the city is very small. .

The most important thing is that the trebuchets are relatively heavy, inconvenient to move, and completely impossible to hide. If people in the city use the trebuchets to deal with the trebuchets outside the city, the trebuchets outside the city will soon be destroyed.

Shen Yifeng thought of the trebuchet at this time, but he didn't want to use the trebuchet to throw stones to attack the city. He thought of a possibility.

In the previous life, he had seen a lot of acrobatics, one of which was to use a springboard to throw people up high and to a fixed position in the distance.

Shen Yifeng felt that if a trebuchet was used to throw people into the city as stones, it should be possible.

Of course, the person who throws the trebuchet into the city must be absolutely powerful, and must be able to resist the crazy attack of the enemy in a short period of time.

"All the soldiers in this world have cultivated the power of heaven, and their own strength is not weak. If you find some powerful people and use trebuchets to throw them over the city to attack the enemy in the city, then you will be able to do it in a short time. Control the city head in a short time, and with this short time, the soldiers who attacked the city can use the long ladder to attack the city head!"

Shen Yifeng thought silently in his heart, feeling that this idea was very maneuverable.

"For such a war of attrition, why don't you try my idea!" He thought silently in his heart, and turned to look at the general and said very seriously: "The order goes on, the whole army retreats, don't attack the city today, go back rest!"

"But... the one who ordered the siege was General Wang!" The general looked at Shen Yifeng with an embarrassed expression.

"General Wang, I will explain it!" Shen Yifeng said with certainty: "We will withdraw the troops immediately!"

"Yes!" Seeing Shen Yifeng's resolute expression, the general had to lead the order to withdraw.

Back at the barracks, Shen Yifeng went directly to see Wang Meng.

Wang Meng sat in the military tent, and after listening to Shen Yifeng's idea, he frowned and thought for a while, then looked at him with a puzzled expression and said, "Is it really okay to use a trebuchet to throw soldiers on the city wall?"

"Absolutely!" Shen Yifeng said with certainty: "As long as we practice for a while, I believe this plan can definitely be implemented!"

After walking back and forth in the barracks for two times, Wang Meng felt that Shen Yifeng's idea was indeed very feasible: "Your idea seems to be feasible... Well, I will find some stronger people to try it out first, if it is true All right, then do as you say."

"I think we need to transform the trebuchet to make it more stable. At the same time, the accuracy of the trebuchet also needs to be more accurate." Shen Yifeng said: "I think, in order to cooperate with the upcoming offensive plan, we these few days. You can continue to siege the city according to a fixed routine while letting the selected soldiers conduct trebuchet training!"

"You're right." Wang Meng guessed what Shen Yifeng wanted to explain, looked at him and nodded and said, "In this way, I will do the job of choosing the manpower, and you will complete the specific implementation plan!"

"Yes!" Shen Yifeng nodded hurriedly and said, "I think so. We have been leading soldiers to attack the city every day these days, but we only attacked the east and west gates of the enemy, leaving the south and north gates untouched. In this way, the main force of the enemy and those generals with relatively strong strength will stay at the east gate and west gate. After we have trained the soldiers who use the trebuchets, we will suddenly attack the south gate or the north gate, and the odds of winning will increase. a lot of!"

"Well, just do as you said!" Wang Meng agreed with the strategy proposed by Shen Yifeng: "Now you can go and see how to modify the trebuchet, and I will select a thousand elite soldiers to train the trebuchet!"

"Yes!" Shen Yifeng responded with a heavy voice, followed by striding out.

The refitting of the trebuchets was completed in one day. Wang Meng selected a total of 2000 elite soldiers, and at the same time refitted all of the [-] trebuchets in total.

In the next few days, Shen Yifeng took two thousand carefully selected soldiers to a secret place for training in using trebuchets, while Wang Meng continued to attack the east and west gates of Delar City according to Shen Yifeng's previous thoughts. .

Time passed day by day, and a week passed in a blink of an eye.

Under the training of Shen Yifeng, the 2000 people selected by Wang Meng have already mastered the technique of balancing in the air after being thrown by the trebuchet.Moreover, the accuracy of throwing the trebuchet has also improved a lot.

The preparations are almost ready.

At ten o'clock this morning, the screams of killing from the east gate and west gate of Delar City rang out again.

100 meters away from the south gate and the north gate, as usual, a group of soldiers stood there but did not attack the city of Delal.

The sound of killing was loud, and the east gate and west gate attacked very fiercely.

Time passed slowly, and it was twelve o'clock in the blink of an eye.

At this time, 100 meters away from the south gate, Shen Yifeng was about to give the order to attack the city.

Hundred meters behind him, [-] soldiers were already ready to go with the siege ladder, and the trebuchet had been placed upside down not far behind, covered by weeds.

"I hope my plan will be successful!" Shen Yifeng took a deep breath and immediately gave orders to the two lieutenants standing beside him: "Prepare to attack the city!"

"Yes!"

Several lieutenants agreed, and soon they set up the hidden trebuchet and moved quickly towards the front of the South Gate City.

Although the enemy troops at the head of the city saw these trebuchets, they didn't think much about it. They just evacuated the battle formation, which was the most effective way to prevent the trebuchets from attacking.

Two thousand trebuchets were soon ready for completion.

"Use stones to attack for the first ten times!" Shen Yifeng ordered. After the ten attacks were completed, the siege soldiers took the ladder and began to charge. At the same time, two thousand soldiers used trebuchets to throw the city wall! "

"Yes." The lieutenants responded loudly.

The preparations were soon completed successfully, and Shen Yifeng was already preparing to give an order to attack.

"Prepare! ... let go!"

As Shen Yifeng's order fell, the two thousand trebuchets threw countless large stones at the top of the city.

When the enemy troops defending the city saw the stones flying over, they hurriedly retreated to avoid them. Few of the enemy troops were hit by the stones at all.

Shen Yifeng didn't care whether the stone thrown by the trebuchet could hurt the enemy, he just did it to paralyze the enemy and let the enemy form an inertial thinking.

"Prepare! ... let go!"

The two thousand trebuchets cast countless stones again.

Still not a few enemy troops were stoned.

At this time, the enemy army was already preparing to transfer the catapult to deal with Shen Yifeng and the others.

If the enemy's trebuchets are transferred, then Shen Yifeng's trebuchets will definitely be within the attack range of the enemy's trebuchets, then Shen Yifeng and his two thousand trebuchets are likely to be completely destroyed in a short period of time. smashed.

However, the trebuchet is a relatively clumsy weapon, and it takes time to transport and place it. It is impossible for the enemy to transport the trebuchet quickly.

Shen Yifeng just wanted to take good control of this time.

Next, following Shen Yifeng's order, [-] trebuchets kept throwing boulders on the city head.

In the blink of an eye, ten times have passed.

No.11, the trebuchet has been replaced by people, but these people are all wearing clothes of the same color as the stone, but at first glance they seem to be similar to the stone.

"Siege!"

Shen Yifeng ordered loudly.

"Kill...!"

"Come on...!"

With the sound of his command, the soldiers behind him rushed towards the south gate city wall with a cloud ladder.

At the same time, [-] catapults threw the trained [-] elite soldiers into the air and flew towards the top of the city.
