Zhang Ren, as a general under the command of Liu Zhang, is familiar with all kinds of siege equipment.

The catapult made by Liu Zhang's craftsmen is a better one. It can cast 70-80 Jin of stones, but its range is not enough. Because the stones are too heavy, the catapult is very worn when it is used. If it is used continuously, a catapult will be repaired at the end of the day.

If it's 30 or 40 Jin stone, it can guarantee the range and greatly reduce the abrasion of the catapult, but the attack power is not enough, so it's much weaker to bombard the city.

Liu Xiu's catapult seems to be a little different.

Zhang Ren asked: "Liu Jingzhou, what's the attack power of the catapult at the foot of the mountain? What's the range? "

Zhang Ren was greedy for the catapult at the foot of the mountain. As long as there is one such catapult, it can be imitated, and then the same catapult can be made to equip its own army.

When Zhang opened his mouth, everyone's eyes fell on Liu Xiu.

A pair of eyes, with a look of knowledge.

Liu Xiu replied, "gentlemen, this catapult is improved on the basis of the original one. The minimum stone used is about 100 Jin, and the range is about 150 Zhang. Attack power? If such a catapult wants to break down a city, it's easy. "

"According to the results of the test, if such ten catapults attack the city wall unaffected, they can break a gap in the city wall for the soldiers to enter the city within two hours at most."

In Liu Xiu's eyes, there is endless pride.

That strong self-confidence shocked everyone present.

"Hiss! Hiss

A person hears a speech, can't help but pour to suck cold air.

I'm afraid!

This is horrible!

If Liu Xiu attacked the city with such a catapult, how could he resist it? It's a sharp weapon to attack the city. It's very difficult to resist it.

With a smile on his face, Zhuge Liang didn't feel so terrible.

On the surface, such a catapult is a sharp weapon for siege, but Liu Xiu also said that if it is not affected, what if it is? The situation is different. So Zhuge Liang is not too worried.

Soon all the catapults were under the hill.

Under the hill, there are 30 catapults, which are divided into three arrays. The direction of one catapult is aimed at a hillside opposite the hill.

This hillside is not high. It's only about 50 feet high. It's about 160 feet away from Liu Xiu and others. From the position of the catapult, the distance from the hillside is about 150 feet.

As the person in charge of the catapult, Yuan Ye watched the catapults take their place. His face became serious. Holding a flag in his hand, he ordered: "prepare!"

At the command, next to each catapult, two soldiers carried a stone weighing 100 Jin, and then put it on the catapult cleanly.

Yuan Ye roared: "let go!"

With the sound down, the flag then waved down.

"Pa! "Pop!"

The catapult ran quickly, and the lever struck the horizontal axis, making a sound. At the same time, the stones on the 30 catapults have been flying out quickly, and they have been drawing arcs in the air.

From Liu Xiu's point of view, you can see thirty black shadows flying through the air, and then you can quickly run forward.

"Boom!"

There was a huge sound in the open ground.

This sound is like thunder on the ground.

"Boom! Boom

One after another, the sound of impact, constantly sounded.

Dense impact sound, people's hearts are tense up.

Sitting on the mountain, Liu Xiu, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Ren, Fu Wan and others were extremely nervous. They all stared at the hillside 160 feet away, holding their breath.

The smoke and dust gradually dispersed.

Hillside, leakage of the true face.

At this time, the hillside, as if it had been hit by a meteorite, was pitted. The original protruding top of the mountain seems to have been destroyed. It has been sunken by the thirty big stones.

Strong impact force, as well as unparalleled destructive power, make everyone nervous.

They had an impression when they heard what Liu Xiu said. But after witnessing it, I really felt the destructive power.

Irresistible!

It's so strong!

One by one, such thoughts are born in their hearts.

Zhang Ren and FA Zheng looked at each other, nodded slightly, and had a consensus in their eyes. Fu Wan saw this scene, the corners of his mouth raised a smile, is also very happy. In Fu Wan's eyes, the stronger Liu Xiu is, the greater the chance of defeating Cao Cao and the greater the strength of support for the emperor.

Cheng Yu, Zhuge Liang and Zhang Zhao are already cool in their hearts.Liu Xiu saw everyone's expression, he did not need any words to stimulate. Facts speak louder than words, which is the best explanation.

The catapult soldiers at the foot of the mountain soon turned around and left slowly.

Zhang Ren, with a trace of curiosity in his eyes, asked: "Liu Jingzhou, what else is there after the catapult?"

Liu Xiu replied, "there's the last crossbow!"

"Bowmen!"

This words, Zhang Ren and everyone's heart, are inexplicably nervous.

What's special about Liu Xiu's bow and crossbow troops?

In any battlefield, bows and arrows are indispensable. Bowmen are even big killers that cause casualties and delay attacks. But Liu Xiu's is not only a bow and arrow soldier, but also a bow and crossbow with stronger lethality than bow and arrow.

Compared with bows and arrows, bows and crossbows are not flexible enough, expensive and difficult to equip for all soldiers. However, since Liu Xiu is equipped with such a soldier, I'm afraid it's not easy.

"The wind

"The wind

Suddenly, the roar came from a distance.

The voice, high pitched and sharp, seemed to bring a blade. When it is introduced into people's ears, people's eardrums are subject to bursts of vibration.

"The wind

"The wind

The cry came in a steady stream.

"Step on it! Step on it

Neat footsteps, from far to near.

This situation once again caught everyone's heart.

A moment later, a group of soldiers appeared in everyone's mind.

This group of soldiers, 50 people in a row, a total of 20 rows. In each row, two soldiers were in a group, one carrying a rhubarb crossbow and the other carrying a crossbow. Each crossbow is five feet long and thicker than the thumb. It is made of fine steel.

The sharp arrow of the crossbow is shining with cold light.

This army is the bowmen.

This crossbow was made by Huang Yueying according to the ancient books of the pre Qin period. Then Liu Xiu asked the craftsman's workshop to make the first batch of crossbows and arrows according to the drawings.

Liu Jingzhou's eyes narrowed to see if it was Liu xiuren who trained him

With a smile on his mouth, Liu Xiu said: "General Zhang's eyes are shining. This crossbow soldier is equipped with the rhubarb crossbow recorded in the ancient books of the pre Qin period. This is a thousand crossbow soldiers. Now, please appreciate it. "

"The wind

"The wind

The roar drew nearer and nearer, and soon all the soldiers arrived at the foot of the hill.

The leader is Huang Zhong, the chief General of the army.

"Array, prepare."

Huang Zhong stood in front of the army and gave a loud order.

In an instant, all the soldiers stopped and quickly put the crossbow on the ground. One by one, the soldiers quickly fell to the ground. They pulled the bowstring, pedaled the crossbow, and then the soldiers next to them filled the crossbow.

A crossbow made of fine steel, all on the string.

All the catapults are aimed in the same direction as the catapult bombarded.

"Shoot the arrow!"

Huang Zhong roared. In an instant, the bowstring of a crossbow vibrated and hummed. The bows and strings of five hundred crossbows vibrated in unison, forming the first sound wave.

Then, I saw only one crossbow and arrow breaking through the air. The sharp crossbow and arrow pierced the air, and there was a sharp whistling sound, which was very harsh. It was like streamer in the air.

"Yes! Yes

In a flash, all the crossbows and arrows fell 180 feet away.

Zhang Ren had excellent eyesight. He estimated it in his heart and said, "Liu Jingzhou, the range of the crossbow is about 180 Zhang. There is no doubt about its lethality. This is a very strong crossbow force. Even such a crossbow force can be used to bombard the city walls

Liu Xiu said with a smile: "General Zhang has been praised falsely!"

In Zhuge Liang's mind at this time, he was afraid.

If Liu Bei and Liu Xiu go to war, once they meet Liu Xiu's catapult and such a crossbow, they will surely suffer a big loss. Now I know. I'm ready to go back, so I won't be caught off guard.
