The Struggle of the Reborn Prince
Chapter 162 The city is about to break down
The Divine Arm Bow is equivalent to an ancient long-range missile. It is a heavy weapon. It can penetrate candied people and horses within an effective range of 400 steps. It is powerful, but like modern heavy weapons, it is powerful and large in size, and requires more than ten.
People even need to use a cow to pull the winch before it can be turned on. It is very bulky and inconvenient to move, so it is only suitable for defending the city. (_《》》) However, in this era, it also poses a considerable threat to the siege troops, and the loyal and brave army
The first round of artillery fire hit the target of the Divine Arm Bow at the head of Fengzhou City.
'Boom...'Hundreds of cannons fired at the same time. In order to ensure the hit rate, each divine arm bow has seven or eight cannons to take care of. The rapid-fire cannon with direct aiming fired solid bullets turned the bow and arrow into a pile of waste fire
The mortar fired flowering bullets were specially used to deal with the archer of the divine arm. The hundreds of small projectiles emitted from the exploded shells were like little bitches that had just emerged. Whether it was the nose, eyes, or the gaps in the armor, they were drilled into it.
Then he saw blood, and then he wandered around his body, and found out from somewhere, tearing the human body apart, breaking it up, and turning it into a pile of minced meat.
"Target: city wall defense, mortar bomb blasting bombs, ready to... release!" The artillery observation post sitting on the Diao Dou, which was taller than the Fengzhou city wall, quickly checked the results, and then informed the artillery command post with flag words. Zhao Xiao saw that the artillery fire was urgent.
After expedition and conquering the meritorious service, the second order was immediately issued, and the command soldiers immediately rode their horses to pass the order to each gun position, brushing the chamber, filling the medicine bag, installing partitions, stuffing the shells, igniting the leads, and the sound of guns rang out one after another.
The shells exploded on the city wall. Although the Xia army was killed and killed, they destroyed the city defense facilities such as war sheds, enemy towers, female walls, crossbow platforms, and exposed houses built on the city. The city gate that was not destroyed was last bombarded.
The building collapsed amid the explosion. In the past, the Western Xia army was only good at field battles. After years of offensive and defensive battles with the Song Dynasty, they learned tactics for defending the city. The city defense measures were no less complete than those of the Song Dynasty. All they should have were, but they were hard to match.
Fierce artillery fire.
After two artillery fire preparations, a team of engineers rushed out first. Their mission was to open a path for the siege troops. Some of the engineers held ** bags, some carried big axes, and some pushed bridge cars...
Weng Li also learned from his last failure and knew that the firearms were very lethal. He did not place all the soldiers on the city wall, but adopted the "fueling tactic" of more garages and less placings. The Xia army, who was responsible for the observation, saw
The Song army began to attack the city and immediately issued an alarm, but the Xia army hidden under the city was so scared that they dared not step forward by the huge power of artillery. Weng Li was also anxious and even chopped off several of the leaders of the army, the captain.
》》()
A battalion of Xia army rushed to the top of the city under its long blood-dropped sword, and immediately bent his bow and arrow to shoot arrows at the Song army, but was knocked down by a rain of bullets. The artillery destroyed the divine arm bow on the city. Xia
The army lost its long-range weapons. The machine gun battalion of the Zhongyong Army quickly moved forward and entered the range. When it found that the Xia army showed its head, it immediately began to shoot. The Xia army's archers had to stand up when they shot arrows, or poke their bodies out of the city wall.
.This time it became a living target and was put flat in a blink of an eye.
Under the cover of machine guns, the engineers who opened the road quickly cleared the foot corners in front of the city, blocked horse piles, filled the trapped horse pits, cut off the tripping rope, and used a bridge chariot to set up a simple bridge with four horses in parallel on the moat. Then
The Yangma City outside the city was destroyed with a bag of **, and the gate of Fengzhou City was exposed to the Song army's artillery. The Xia army on the city stepped forward and was killed by the Song army's machine gun. If it was down, guard the horse road.
With the murderous supervision team, between life and death, these Xia soldiers also became smarter, retreated to the dead corner of machine gun shooting, and shot arrows by shooting, but they were blindly shot, and they had no idea.
He scared the Song army's engineering battalion and retreated.
But before the Xia army could breathe a sigh of relief, the terrifying cannon sounded again. Zhao Ren, who served as the commander-in-chief of the front enemy, quickly discovered the Xia army's new tactics and organized artillery bombardment again. This time the target was not the city, but the use of mortars.
The cannon was shot at a high angle, and the shells were shot onto the heads of the Xia army reserve team in the city. The rapid-fire cannon was not idle either. He concentrated his firepower and used solid bullets to bombard the city gate with all his strength, trying to destroy the city gate and open a breakthrough for the siege troops.
The shells shot into the city are no longer just a single type of bomb. Solid bombs are specially used to smash the battle sheds and buildings for garrisoning soldiers under the city. Blasting bombs destroy the city-defying materials hoarded under the city, kill soldiers, and then burn them.
The bomb set off a fire, and these incendiary bombs were extracted from oil by the prince. The intensity and durability of the combustion were not comparable to those of the vegetable oils of livestock and pine oil. They really fell on the house and fell on the house.
It also gets fire on the body, and it can still burn even if it falls on the stone slab. Moreover, it cannot be extinguished with water, which increases the fire...
The city gate is generally made of hardwood, with a thickness of several inches. It is generally wrapped in iron sheets and densely riveted door nails to prevent fire and impact. In the past, it was nothing more than burning the city gate.
It was the first time to use a car to crash and use a cannon to break the door. In this era, it was only a few rounds of bombardment, and the thick city gate had become a pile of firewood. However, there were many Han people in the city. In order to prevent anyone from surrendering, Yeli
The city gate was blocked, but unexpected results were achieved at this time, which helped him a lot. The artillery was unable to blow up the stuffing more than two feet thick in a short time, and the plan to break through the city gate failed.
The east side is not bright, and the west side is bright, Zhao Ren immediately asked the cavalry who were preparing to attack to retreat and replaced the dragon cavalry who was fighting on foot. These siege tactics have been trained many times in the past drills, and everyone knows what they should do and convert.
It was as smooth as the clouds and water. After the engineering battalion that had cleared the obstacles was withdrawn, several siege cars pulled by more than ten horses were dispatched.
The mules and horses dragging the siege carts are all covered with iron vests, which can prevent close-range shooting of bows and arrows. Unless those archers come on the field and shoot horse urethras, it will be difficult to cause damage to the horses. The siege carts are also passed by the loyal and brave army.
The craftsmen carefully crafted it, which is several meters high and almost flush with the city wall. People can climb to the roof of the car through several layers of winding stairs. The surroundings of the stairs are covered by thick wood and layers of cowhide to form a corridor that can prevent bows and arrows and stones.
The infringement can contain hundreds of soldiers, there are machine gun bunkers on the roof, and two machine guns are installed to provide fire support to the siege soldiers.
The siege car rolled forward along the passage cleared by the engineer battalion. In order to prevent accidental injury, the shelling stopped at this time, the sentry on the watchtower in the city immediately issued an alarm. After the shelling just now, the defenders in the city suffered heavy losses and gathered in the Xicheng.
The five thousand defenders suffered more than half of the casualties. Weng Li had no way out now. While sending people to the prefect Qingyang to request reinforcements and raise supplies, he personally supervised the troops to guard the city.
The most powerful weapon against siege cars is iron hitting wood and piercing the ring. According to the "Martial Jing Zongyao" record: "Iron hitting wood, the wooden body and iron head, its head has six iron tips, three fingers, and more than a foot long
The tip of the edge is the reverse whisker, and its orifice penetrates the iron cable. Whenever a car is pressing against the city, it will be broken by a pulley and twisted iron from the city. The leather is broken, and the swallow tail torch is burned. The ring is pierced, wrought iron or bend and tolerated wood is
If the big ring is tied with a rope, it will be used. If the car crashes into the city, it will be lifted through the trailer, pull the rope together, and use a crossbow to shoot it on both sides. The car will overturn; if the shooting is still not stopped, the person under the car
Most of them are not armed, and they are fleeing away, and they are eager to rush to throw firewood and burn it.'Song and Xia were in wartime and had close contacts. It was not difficult to steal military books. The Song Dynasty also did this. The Divine Arm Bow was from the Xia Kingdom.
It is not a big deal to learn how to make such weapons.
Weng Li led his troops to the city, and the siege car was less than a hundred steps away from the city wall. While he organized the men and horses to repair and fix the equipment, he also asked the archers to block the siege car. However, the body of the car was strong, and the arrows were shot on the car. He heard the sound, but it didn't have much effect. Then he threw all the broken bricks and tiles on the city, trying to stop the siege cars from approaching. However, the Song army had thought of this for a long time and deliberately made the wheel diameter very large , like a 'big bike', it has super powerful ability to pass through, although it slows down, but it still cannot stop it from moving forward.
Lou Gan has now been promoted to the chief of the Tiger General's Basketball Team. In order to ensure that the prince can have supper in Fengzhou City, he volunteered to act as the driver of the first car himself. In order to maintain stability, the siege car as high as a spire had to be built in a wide range. Some, and the road leading to the west gate of Fengzhou was originally narrow and had a large slope. Although it had been renovated by the engineering battalion, it was very difficult to walk.
The driver could not hide in the car and drove the car in the rain of arrows. Lou Gan led several drivers of our team to drive the sixteen carefully selected horses forward, and rushed up the steep slope with difficulty, making the road even more difficult to move. Lou Gan had to get out of the car and pull the horse to lead the way. He held a big shield in one hand to protect his body, and carefully walked around the pile of soil and rocks with the other hand, and kept shouting in his mouth to comfort the horse.
Horses are the most timid and like to be shocked. Although these horses have been trained, they have never faced the rain of arrows like locusts. Although arrows cannot cause harm to them, fright is inevitable. After working hard, I coaxed the horses to pass the "Stone Array" and finally came to the moat. The horses who served as horses were experienced old horses. Seeing a narrow and broken simple bridge made of wooden boards in front of me, It stopped pulling the heavy siege car, no matter how Lou Gan shouted, he would just stop moving forward.
"Lou Gan, fuck you, hurry up. The car has been in vain for so many years!" Dou Jun, commander of the Third Battalion of the Dragon General, was also commanding in the front car. He was about to reach the city, but the car stopped and couldn't help it. Screamed loudly.
"Ga, ga..." Lou Gan was even more anxious than him. The wooden shield weighed twenty or thirty pounds. His arms had already been sore, his body was soaked with sweat, and several drivers got out of the car and brought their horses. But the horse still said nothing and refused to leave.
"Blind the horse's urethra and lead the horse across the bridge!" Lou Gan ordered his men to tear off his clothes, blindfolded the horse with one hand, carried the shield behind him, and stepped back step by step to take the carriage across the bridge. When he arrived at the city, with a loud bang, the front baffle of the siege car was lowered and placed on the top of the city, forming a bridge. Lou Gan, a mascot partition, wanted to take the horse out of the city, but suddenly a stone came from The city rolled down, but it hit him. Lou Gan spewed a mouthful of blood from his mouth and fell down on his back. But he saw the soldiers on the siege car jumping up to the city, grinning, and closing the Eyes...(To be continued...)
