Remember when the Islamic forces had powerful ranged infantry throwers at close range? The canister bow developed by the Empire of the Sun Never Sets is a way to throw weapons by arm force in a pulling way, sacrificing mobility in exchange for range and accuracy, and equipping them with small two-person portable war weapons into the engineering units of various group armies.

The weapon resembles a slightly larger crossbow, but with an additional tripod underneath the crossbow holder to hold the weapon in place, making it look like an isosceles triangle from a distance. The arrow slot that was originally loaded with crossbow arrows has disappeared, replaced by a cowhide rope with excellent elasticity, and the middle part of the cowhide rope happens to have a small cloth belt that is the same as the leather belt used to wrap the stone bullet from the counterweight trebuchet.

The canister bow is not filled with hot oil, because this weapon can easily burn the hands of engineers without armor, especially when these ammunition are pulled back by putting the cloth belt, and Sun Lin is used to pack dangerous goods is a kind of ceramic with an almost circular body without a handle, and the ceramic mouth can not be grasped except for the ceramic mouth, and at present, these ceramic ports are sealed by something very similar to paper.

"Mr. Thebes, I feel a sense of uneasiness from these ceramics about what they contain, and what they are about." After more than 30 can-throwing bows and 15 steel improved scorpion crossbows were erected, Mars the Scarred Man. Klebold and Mars General Andrew turned his attention to the contents of the sealed boxes that were unloaded from the ox carts one by one by the siege soldiers of the Sunset City, carried to the broken city wall, and opened by the Sunset soldiers with iron crowbars, one is the extra-long javelin used to improve the scorpion crossbow, and the other is the ceramic jar with a sealed drum mouth (interested parties can take a look at the burning ceramic jar containing fish oil used for throwing in the movie Chibi, which appeared during the pre-war preparations of the Sun-Liu coalition army), Although the mouth of the ceramic jar has been sealed with a special layer of paper, there is still a pungent smell from time to time.

"This is a special liquid made by our Empire that the sun never sets for use in battle, and since it is a state secret, I'm sorry Mars the Scar. His Majesty Klebold, General Andrew, I can't reveal much, I can only tell you that its name is Greek Fire. Thebes said lightly.

"Greek fire? It's a strange name, but it sounds like it has something to do with fire, doesn't it............ You're going to use these things to carry out a fire attack, but it's unlikely. Andrew said with a frown. Indeed, as Andrew said, under normal circumstances, it is no longer possible to create any fire attack effect on the battlefield near the mountain castle, because at this time, the battlefield near the mountain castle has already been burned one by one, and don't forget that the catapult can not only throw stones but also burning flints. Now the grass roots in the soil in front of the mountain castle have also turned hay color under the barbecue of many fires, and the soil within 3 meters of the surrounding surface has also been burned by many fires to the point that there are no nutrients and water, and it is impossible for the battlefield of the mountain castle to have any flammable materials at this time.

"General Andrew, rest assured. I know what you're worried about, maybe we wouldn't have made this countermeasure before the empire invented Greek fire, but now that the empire has invented Greek fire, we have a way to fire this battlefield again, and by the way, I also want to bring the engineer Xie Lu to thank you and your soldiers, because it is your soldiers who make this battlefield not even have a single combustible place, so that the people of Warsaw will not pay attention to the ............ of fire prevention" At this time, the attack horn of the Warsaw Alliance came from outside the mountain city: "Gentlemen, It seems that the beautiful opera is about to be played in advance, Mr. Andrew, have you already written a decisive battle to the Warsaw army? ”

"Well, they've agreed to battle it out over the walls." Andrew nodded.

"Then let's wait and see."

With the start of the battlefield, because the commanders of both sides had previously issued the order for a decisive battle, as early as the beginning, the Warsaw Alliance adopted the method of fighting with the whole army pressing the border, of course, this is very different from the wave of assault used by the fool general, and the Warsaw army is well-armored, and it also has heavy cavalry that the Mars Empire does not have, so it is not impossible to play a wave of ............

Due to the previous many throws, the siege troops of the Warsaw Alliance have used up all the ammunition, and the logistics troops did not intend to transport the stone shells when they came, of course, a large part of the reason is that Bobby's cavalry troops have been committed to destroying 3 types of buildings: agricultural buildings, mineral buildings and iron buildings, and now Warsaw, although food and iron, weapons and armor have not yet been urgent, but the stone has begun to be urgent, so it is normal for catapults to have no ammunition, and in this battle, The Warsaw people who control the catapults are already equipped with chain mail and shield swords for a decisive battle.

There was no disturbance from the siege troops, so Klebold consulted with Andrew and decided to let the troops slowly put themselves in a state of decay, drawing the Warsaw Alliance forces near the city walls and then counterattacking, which proved to be effective.

Although the mountain castle was not breached, the number of losses after this battle was smaller than that of Mars's army, which made the Warsaw Union army conceited. Therefore, Warsaw's 130,000-strong army advanced to the cracks in the broken walls in just one hour, and including the Warsaw Guards, who had advanced to the city to boost the morale of their own army by the sharp arrows fired by the armored compound archers.

"It's time! Start! Under the shouts of several leaders of the engineering corps, the engineers very quickly pushed the can-throwing bow and the steel improved scorpion crossbow to the battlements of the city wall, after a few steel arrows collided and the sound of cow tendons pulling, 15 steel javelins pierced the sky, and flew towards the Warsaw guards who had not yet reacted, because the Warsaw people were in a dense formation, and the distance from the scorpion crossbow was not even 300 meters, so each javelin shot through more than 3 Warsaw Guard members, and if you were lucky, you could also bring one or two ironclad hoplites.

In less than a second, the canister throwing bow was also operated by two or two engineers, and a ceramic jar the size of a human head filled with Greek fire was thrown out of the can, of course, before the engineers used torches to ignite the mouth of the can. With the help of pulling force and manpower, the ceramic jar with the mouth of the jar on fire fell into the dense ranks of Warsaw soldiers wearing heavy iron armor under the puzzled gaze of the Warsaw people.
