New Wagang

Chapter 455 Mechanical Linked Crossbow

When the words of Qingqi Fifth Battalion came out, Wang Qing Duan Da also understood what it meant.

Qin Qiong's Qingqi Fifth Battalion has long been sent out to hide, and everything will only wait for the right time to attack Peiliu's army. At that time, [-] soldiers and horses in Wagang City will rush out to kill the enemy timing.

However, there is a premise before all this, that is, Wagang City must be defended first, otherwise everything will be in vain.

At this time, Pei Yuanqing's voice was no longer heard outside the city, and Yuwenba went to the city wall again to look around, only to see Pei Yuanqing leading his horse back, his figure showing a little loneliness.

Back at the big tent, Pei Yuanqing gave an overview of the process, Liu Changgong and Pei Renji looked at each other, and both of them thought of the fact that it was very likely that there were not many soldiers and horses in Wagang City.

In other words, it is true that Wagang, who was inspected by the Tianmu Mansion, sent 18 troops to the west.

However, whether the 18 soldiers and horses came out of the city for the purpose of besieging and killing their own soldiers and horses or for other reasons, the two of them have not yet figured it out.

West?
Both of them dispatched scouts, and they didn't see a single shadow within a radius of a hundred miles, and they searched to the west for a distance of 150 miles, and there was no sign of soldiers and horses stationed, but there were indeed signs of the army's departure. .

"Could it be that Nawagang's army really moved out for something else?" Liu Changgong still couldn't believe it. After all, Wagang dared to drop the army out to do other things when his [-] army came to attack. It was Liu Changgong. It's really unimaginable to think about it.

"Wagang really didn't pay attention to you and my two soldiers." Pei Renji couldn't help but sighed deeply. For a moment, the tragic situation of the previous defeat came back to his mind, and he sighed again and again.

"Father Commander, Military Commander!" Pei Yuanqing couldn't stand it anymore, snorted coldly, and said, "I don't think the Wagang soldiers and horses are very important. Didn't anyone dare to fight before the battle before the battle? There is nothing to be afraid of when the free card comes out!"

"The third son is really famous and shocking Wagang!" Liu Changgong flattered Pei Yuanqing in time. There is no way, everything depends on Pei Yuanqing this time.

Pei Yuanqing took this flattery as a matter of course, and Pei Renji on the side did not dare to take it too seriously, and hurriedly bowed to Liu Changgong to express his gratitude on behalf of his son.

Liu Changgong also appreciates Pei Renji's good eyesight, and this time the two are really so-called complementary cooperation.

Liu Changgong said to Pei Renji: "Since Wagang is unwilling to fight, and our army is not suitable for delaying for too long, Wagang is the place where the granary is after all, and it will be extremely detrimental to our army if it is used up."

"The commander-in-chief's words are very true." Pei Renji immediately echoed, saying: "Wagang avoided the battle on the first day, presumably there will be no change if you continue to fight in the future, you might as well attack the city directly, but after the attack, you have to send out troops to attack the city." More scouts clear the surrounding area, and they must not be taken advantage of by Wagang soldiers."

"Brother Pei is worried about that." Liu Changgong immediately ordered to send additional scouts to make sure that every plant and tree within a radius of [-] miles must be clearly grasped, and no one person and one horse can be put in, and then he ordered the generals in the big tent to attack the city immediately!

As Peiliu's army blew the siege horn and beat the war drums, everyone at the top of Wagang City also became nervous. After all, everyone knew that there were only [-] soldiers in the city, and they were obviously in the process of defending the city. The central garrison will suffer losses, and at that time it will have to be supplemented by [-] soldiers, and many people really have no idea how long these [-] soldiers can last.

However, Yuwenba has a spectrum in his heart, and it is still a very solid spectrum, that is, the various defense machines developed by Wagang successively.

Although the Bashan Camp followed the army and returned to Ling Jing, but all the equipment for defending the city were arranged on the city wall. It is really not that easy for Pei Liu's army to conquer Wagang City. The backer king's [-] soldiers and horses failed to break through the city.

However, of course, the king of the mountain might have intentionally not to break through the city at the beginning, because he wanted to lure out his own cavalry and then use the chain hammer battalion to deal with him.

Yuwenba stood on the top of the city, and the four Lei brothers followed closely behind. He was ordered by Yuwenba to help guard the city wall everywhere. With a single order, all the soldiers drew their bows and arrows, and even some soldiers opened the mechanical crossbow , This is a large-scale bow and crossbow machine, which can be equipped with ten arrows on each of the upper and lower floors at the same time, that is to say, it can shoot thirty arrows at a time, and the power is more violent than manual.

Because it is very difficult to manufacture such a machine, there are only fifteen machines in total today. Seven machines are placed at the east gate, and eight machines are placed at the west gate. , in today's absence of artillery, this is the first choice for long-range shooting.

Yuwenba did not personally command, and there were already mature leaders among these garrison troops. Seeing the iron shields clearing the way in the opponent's camp, the densely packed soldiers and horses advancing behind them, and those who carried the battering hammer and climbed the ladder could gradually be seen. After entering the range of the mechanical crossbow, a leader immediately waved a small flag, and the sergeant in front of the seven crossbows moved the machine immediately, only to hear a series of "woo" burst through the air. 210 long arrows Cutting through the sky like migratory locusts, they rushed into the sky, and then went straight down to shoot and kill.

Pei Liu's army absolutely did not expect to be shot by long arrows in such a place where the three-stone strong bow is still outside the range. When they found a sudden arrow on their heads, they were all panicked, and time did not give them more There were too many chances to react, and there was a continuous burst of screams and screams.

After Wagang shot the first burst of arrows from the mechanical crossbow, he filled the arrows again in a moment, and once again the arrows flew all over the sky. This time, although the army was prepared, it also shot and killed many The sergeant even slowed down his advancing speed, and even disrupted his formation, causing a commotion, and the commotion was filled with panic.

Regarding Wagang, apart from the fear in the hearts of the generals, the sergeants were also very afraid. When they heard that this time they were going to go up the mountain to attack Wagang, none of these sergeants were unwilling, but they had to obey Order or die.

But even though such a compulsive body arrived in Wagang, the fear in his heart did not diminish at all. Later, when the leaders said that there were no soldiers and horses in Wagang City, these sergeants gained some confidence.

However, at this time, seeing that the soldiers and horses were still so far away from Wagang, they shot arrows to this place to kill so many sergeants, each and every one of them was eager again, although they did not go back here, but after advancing The momentum slowed down.
