New Wagang

Chapter 456 Fire Sea
And this opportunity of relief gave the mechanical crossbow a role to play. If it was too far or too close, the mechanical crossbow could only be a spectator.

With the third shot of the mechanical crossbow, Pei Liu's army was a little bit overwhelmed, because the strength of the mechanical crossbow after shooting was extremely huge, even if it was blocked by the iron shield, it could not avoid the danger of being killed.

The arrows will be bounced off and hurt other people. In short, almost every arrow has the effect of killing and injuring the enemy.

"What kind of artifact is Wagang?" Liu Changgong and Pei Renji held the battle in person, and they could see it clearly in front of the camp, and both of them gasped.

Now the soldiers and horses on both sides have been shot and killed many sergeants at such a long distance. It is unknown how much they will lose if they advance all the way, and what will happen to their own sergeants when they advance to the city wall.

There have been claims about Wagang Yuwenba's ingenuity and ingenuity for a long time, and the first known thing is the poisonous dragon chariot that made great achievements in attacking Wagang, which was developed by Xin Wang himself.

And that frightening soul chasing crossbow was also made by the King of Confidence!

It's no wonder that the former backer king failed to break through the Wagang city. The ghost knows how many weird defenders are waiting on the Wagang city wall.

"Commander, the advancing formation of the soldiers has been messed up, so it's better to retreat first." Pei Renji suggested: "After reorganizing the troops, it won't be too late for each of them to have two shields."

"Okay!" Liu Changgong didn't dare to consume too much sergeant. Although the information he got now is that there are not many soldiers and horses in Wagang City, there is no exact figure for how many soldiers and horses went out of Wagang City so far. The news came back, so Liu Changgong also had to preserve his own strength.

Immediately, the military was ordered to retreat, which was great news for the sergeants covered by the mechanical crossbow. Immediately, everyone who ignored them ran away, and a siege battle had not yet begun. The real fight is over.

The people on the top of the city were very happy to see this scene. Yuwenba summoned his own soldiers and asked Ximen Wang Cong and Zhou Fashang to send news to let Ximen also know about the confrontation that Dongmen experienced. To achieve a state that everyone knows, so that each can make the most accurate judgment.

Because the transmission of news in this era can only rely on manpower, sometimes one's own judgment is extremely important when time is too late, and to increase the accuracy of sudden decision, information sharing is essential!
"Don't be too happy, everyone. The second wave of enemy attacks will follow." Yuwenba told Wang Qing Duanda, then waved to the two of them, and the two immediately went to give instructions to the leaders and to the soldiers. Cheer up.

Sure enough, not long after, soldiers and horses from Peiliu's camp came out again. The only difference from last time was that each sergeant held two shields in both hands to prevent the mechanical crossbow from shooting.

It has to be said that the two shields in each man's hand really reduced the shooting effect of the mechanical crossbow to the lowest point. After two consecutive rounds of shooting, Yuwen Ba simply ordered the mechanical crossbow to temporarily stop shooting, and called the leader to warn him. The forward angle of the mechanical crossbow will be a little lower, which means that it will directly put the opponent into the range of the two arrows, and then shoot and kill at that time.

In this way, the power of the mechanical crossbow is naturally greater when the distance is shortened.

Sure enough, after the mechanical crossbow stopped shooting, the enemy army was overjoyed for a while, and rushed towards it at an accelerated speed. When the two arrows hit the ground, the mechanical crossbow started shooting again. This time, although the sergeants were blessed with two shields each , but the strength of the mechanical crossbow is even more violent after shortening the distance. As long as the arrow shoots into the crowd, even if it fails to penetrate the shield, it can almost overturn the person holding the shield to the ground.

For a while, the speed of the enemy's advance was once again stagnant.

"No further retreat at this time!" Pei Renji looked at Liu Changgong solemnly, and said, "If you retreat, the distance you advanced before will no longer exist!"

Liu Changgong knew it, and immediately ordered the soldiers to beat the drums and urge the soldiers to step up their attacks. Under the military order, these soldiers could only hide under their shields and rush forward. Fortunately, they finally entered the mechanical crossbow. After being out of range, it entered the range of the sergeant's hand-drawn bow.

The difference from the blind shooting coverage of the mechanical crossbow is that people draw bows and shoot arrows with better sights, but also, among the enemy sergeants, those with strong physical strength will shoot arrows towards the city wall from time to time, gradually Yes, the siege battle between the two sides began a little bit of formal confrontation!
However, Pei Renji and Liu Changgong never thought that Wagang not only has an extra thing that can shoot farther than the three-stone strong bow, but also has many things that have never been seen before in the Southern and Northern Wars.

As Pei Liu's army continued to push in, while the arrows on the top of the city wall continued to shoot and kill, the mine blaster appeared again.

The so-called mine sprayer is not really a thunderbolt, but a large turntable-like thing with a dozen kerosene bottles hanging on it. As long as the machine is pulled, the mine sprayer can turn the large plate in front, so that the kerosene can be blown away. The bottle is sprayed out.

Because the workmanship requirements of mine sprayers are much lower than those of mechanical crossbows, the number of mine sprayers is very large, and you can make as many as you want. At this time, a mine sprayer is placed almost every ten steps on the city wall. The machine was activated at the same time, and the sky filled with kerosene bottles flew out of the city like rain, and then fell to the ground. Some of them collided with each other and exploded before landing in the air, igniting a big fire, which made the attack even more The soldiers in the city were terrified.

Ordinary sergeants throw the kerosene bottle with their hands, or tie the kerosene bottle to the arrow to shoot, so that the speed and density are very low, and it can give the siege sergeants a lot of time to predict.

And every time the kerosene bottle is thrown, it is easy to be shot by the attacking side, just like when Xiaodangshan attacked Wagang, Ma Sanbao desperately defended the city, even if the sergeant on the tower wore two layers of armor, he could almost throw a kerosene bottle The cost of losing a life.

But at this time, the siege sergeants under the city tower only saw a small disc popping out from the city wall, and as soon as the disc turned, the kerosene bottles hanging on it would be thrown down one after another. Even if you shoot the disc with an arrow, it's useless!

For a while, the outside of the city almost became a scourge. In fact, if Yuwenba was ruthless and dropped some dry firewood at this time, the siege soldiers outside the city would have no chance of survival. Remembering that they all belong to the same race is not an alien invasion, that's why they didn't kill them. I just hope that the offenders can be repelled in the future. To a certain extent, it can hurt some sergeants less, so it will be less.
