Chapter 433 Open the city gate!
The counterweight trebuchet is a siege weapon made by making full use of the principle of leverage.On the basis of the original trebuchet, Ma Chao followed Publius' advice and used special tough animal tendons as ropes, and added a winch reel to further store power.As a result, the power and distance of the stones thrown by the Majia trebuchet were far ahead of the Han Dynasty.
No way, as a descendant of the Romans, Publius is proficient in trebuchets: Who let the Romans play this game earlier than the Chinese?
The trebuchet continued to show off its power, and the shooters had adjusted their angles after the first round of trial throws.At the same time, the remaining [-] trebuchets were pulled out, and all of them were concentrated on the city tower for violent bombardment. At this moment, the ferocious stones could no longer hear the waves of catapults, and they were mixed together like rolling thunder.
The gaps in Suzaku's city wall were wide open, pieces of the female wall at the top of the city were cracked, and the flying broken stones, bricks and tiles were flying in all directions. From a distance, it looked like a volcano erupted, the defenders howled and moaned loudly, and fell down one by one.Even with Wang Yun's prior order, most of the county soldiers guarding the city were caught off guard in the face of the sudden and violent attack, causing heavy casualties immediately.
After all, the battlements were all destroyed, so what good could they get for hiding behind the battlements?At this time, Wang Yun and the ministers on the tower, under the protection of the county soldiers, fled down the city wall in embarrassment.When the county soldiers guarding the city saw this, their morale was low and they were in a mess.
"Ma Chao is too vicious!" Huang Wan yelled angrily after going down to the city: "No, we must send troops to fight and destroy those trebuchets. Otherwise, Suzaku Gate will be razed to the ground within five days!"
"Let these improvised infantry attack the Ma family's heavy armored cavalry?!" Wang Yun's face was flushed at this time, and he was almost out of breath under the shock and anger: "It's a good thing you can say such a reckless attack!" Come with foolish words!"
Huang Wan was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood the crane wing array formed by the more than [-] heavy armored cavalry: Ma Chao deliberately set up a net to wait for him to die!
Everyone also thought of this at this time, and looked at each other in horror. They, who are usually eloquent, have no way to solve this situation.And because of this, these people couldn't help but turn their attention to Xun You.
"Don't worry, gentlemen, Ma Chao is just demonstrating this time. If you really want to capture Chang'an, you can attack the city a few days ago, why delay until today?" Although Xun You was embarrassed, he still emphasized the meaning of "Ma's demonstration".
"Gongda, what is Ma Chao's intention?!" Wang Yun, who had already fallen into madness at this time, grabbed Xun You by the collar and asked in a loud voice.
Just as Xun You was about to answer, he suddenly caught sight of a rocket in the sky, and immediately leaned over and threw Wang Yun down, shouting loudly: "Everyone, get out of here quickly! Ma Chao has already fired a bed crossbow rocket!"
With a sound of 'ding', the rocket rubbed Wang Yun's clothes and nailed to the ground, and the burning kerosene burned Wang Yun's official uniform immediately.Xun You made a decisive decision, tore off Wang Yun's official uniform, and hid behind a thick wall nearby.
"Lord Situ, did you offend His Majesty and Ma Chao because you wanted to kill Cai Suiguan?" It was not Xun You who said this, but Zong Ji who hid behind the wall with Xun You.
Wang Yun was overly frightened, but his brain was not slow: he immediately thought that Cai Yong was Liu Xie's confidant, and he was also Ma Chao's father-in-law... But the Ma family sent out all the elites and brought 30 Qiang people here to demonstrate. Isn't it a bit too fussy?What's more, Cai Yong is still in charge of continuing to write "Hanshu", and he would rather die than let that old man confuse right and wrong with his famous name!
However, taking personal honor and disgrace to bet on the demise of Chang'an, is there a price... No!Even though I died in battle in Chang'an City, future generations will still praise my loyalty, but if the Ma family rescued Cai Yong, wouldn't my painstaking efforts be stigmatized forever? !
Do not!Absolutely not!
When the old man returns to the city today, he will kill the old man!
But thinking of this point, Wang Yun suddenly saw the entire Suzaku gate, and tens of thousands of arrows rained in an instant.The burning rocket was as fast as a meteor, almost dyeing the entire clear sky red!
That's right, at this time, Zhou Cang and Liao Hua's infantry were already guarding the bed crossbow shooters, neatly lined up in several horizontal lines, and they drove under the moat without any cover, facing the corpse mountain blood Hai, these shooters were all expressionless, and they walked past the corpses indifferently, as numb as zombies.
The defenders fought back desperately, shooting arrows and rocks all over the sky, but then they found sadly that the usually majestic mountain-destroying crossbow could not penetrate the huge shield raised by the Majia infantry.After several sharp whistling whistles, the messengers rode their horses back and forth, the drums stopped suddenly, the corporal commander and the captain shouted orders, and the bed crossbow army was full of crossbow bolts again, as in a usual drill, and fired upwards towards the city head under the orders of those officers. .
"Boom..." With a series of dull roars, the trebuchet crushed the soldiers who dared to fight back on the city wall to bloody flesh, and the gravel shot all over the sky, instantly suppressing the firepower at the top of the city.After a few breaths of silence, the rockets dispersed, passing through the flattened battlements, and falling into the city behind the Suzaku Gate.
Under the unprecedented firepower of Ma's army, the defenders of Suzaku Gate were almost killed and injured within a few rounds. The corpses fell like rain on the top of the city, and the sticky blood sprayed thinly and splattered, forming a thick layer on the ground. Flowing down like splashed ink along the city wall, it is as miserable and tragic as Shura's hell.
If Ma Chao gave the order to attack the city at this time, all he needed was a dashing car to smash through the gate of Suzaku without any scruples.Then the heavy armored cavalry assaulted, and the whole of Chang'an would be reduced to the cavalry of Ma's army in an instant.
"Master Situ, it's not good!" A small school ran to Wang Yun's side bloodied, and said in horror: "The Ma's army's offensive is irresistible, and the soldiers defending the city suffered heavy casualties. I'm afraid that they will rush to the city in just a moment. Enter this city of Chang'an!"
"Xun You, you did a good job!" Huang Wan cursed loudly, as if the fall of Chang'an after a young age was entirely Xun You's responsibility.
As soon as his words fell, almost everyone stabbed their angry eyes at Xun You.Because they remembered that it was indeed Xun You who said that the Ma's army was only demonstrating and would not invade Chang'an City.But now that the situation is so critical, Xun You can't escape the responsibility!
"Enough!" Wang Yun cursed loudly, but immediately his voice was drowned out by the cheers of tens of thousands of people outside the city. When he suddenly looked up, he saw that the city of Chang'an was full of flames, and the sky was covered by thick smoke. In the sun, the sound of catapult throwing, bed crossbow firing, crying, screaming, groaning, and the crashing of bricks and stones rang together. On the battlefield for several miles, my ears were full of buzzing, and I couldn't hear any sound clearly.
However, another shout of tens of thousands of people pierced through these deafening noises and clearly entered Wang Yun's ears:
"General Han Fu, Yongzhou Mu, Yongding Hou Machao, want to enter the palace to see His Majesty!"
The sound shook dozens of miles away, and it was like a world-shocking earth-shattering.After Wang Yun heard this, he first gave Xun You a weird look, then his face almost turned purple, and finally he clenched his skinny fingers into fists, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Stop fighting, open the city gate, and welcome the General of the Fu Kingdom into the palace! "
