Chapter 526: Luban's Supplies
Akon patted his head, "It's just, I just thought about how to crack it mechanically, and I forgot that this is a 100% supernatural scene." ”
There are a lot of people, but it's just that Satsuma is busy. Because it has to run around the city to cast spells to reinforce hundreds of beams. The Mo family's army bean soldiers were very conscientious, and after half an hour, they made these impact wooden beams, which was also because of the addition of the Mo family's instrument manufacturing skills, so they were able to complete the task so quickly.
In fact, this is the role of Zhang Fan's three vow-bearers in this trial scene. With ideas beyond this era, find a better way to crack Luban's siege equipment. This kind of iron striking wood that drills through the wheel is not recorded in history until the Northern Song Dynasty's "Wujing General Essentials". As a top student of the modern mechanical department, Akon advanced it to the early Warring States period.
Hundreds of iron-clad logs fell from the city, piercing through the hiding blades of the Chu army. Then the winch at the head of the city pulled up the iron and hit the wood, and put it down repeatedly, smashing those slapsticks out of big holes! These drilled ruins could no longer withstand the destruction of countless rockets in the city, and one by one they were fired into the rockets, burned from the inside, and in an instant, they turned into flying ashes.
The hall of the King of Chu outside the sand table is much faster than in the sand table, and the battle of nearly three hours has only passed less than half an hour outside. Seeing that his most proud and repairing oars were broken by the Mo family's army, Lu Ban's face was a little unbearable! This is his strongest siege weapon. Beads of sweat the size of beans dripped from Luban's forehead......
Lu Ban hesitated for a moment, but still took out a handful of bamboo pieces from his arms and threw them into the sand table military formation, turning them into thousands of various siege equipment and arranging them in front of the military formation! This is simply blatant laipi, is it possible that on the official battlefield, can you still airlift a batch of siege equipment from thousands of miles away and drop it directly on the battlefield? And dozens of earthen platforms outside the city rise from the ground......
He raised his head and glanced at Mozi with some evasion, and saw that the latter was looking at him with a smile, so he also smiled awkwardly, and said: "If your Mo family's city defense technique can survive this wave of attacks, my father-in-law will be convinced!" ”
Mozi had already picked up the hand on the bamboo piece on the case and put it down again. smiled: "It's okay, just treat Song Cheng as if he was attacked twice in a row!" Let's see if you can break through Song City after your siege equipment is regrouped! ”
…………
When Zhang Fan Aken saw the Chu army retreating, his heart was settled. In this offensive and defensive battle, both sides went all out, and nearly half of the siege equipment of the Chu army was damaged.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief and was about to celebrate in advance, Dark Sakura stood on the female wall and shouted, "Hey, why do they have more siege engines?" Do you want to fight again? ”
When Zhang Fan Akin heard this, he went up to the female wall, leaned in to take a look, and gasped in shock! I saw the Chu army troops below, the armor was bright, and in the neat phalanx, thousands of various siege equipment were densely lined up, as if the battle had just begun, and the battle losses in front were just a dream.
And looking back at the Mo family's garrison troops, nearly two-fifths of the arrow towers at the head of the city were damaged! Nearly half of the rammers, projectiles, and bed crossbows were also destroyed. Why doesn't it seem like there are any supplies?
What surprised Zhang Fan Aken even more was that the opponent had piled up dozens of earthen platforms as high as the head of the city outside the city in an instant, and they were all archers, confronting the archers of the defenders at the head of the city! In this case, the height advantage of the defenders is completely gone!
"Quickly let the reserve team come up and repair the city defense equipment!" Akon commanded.
"Looks like the difficulty of the trial has been upgraded! There's going to be a tough battle ahead! Zhang Fan was a little worried, "Think about it, what other siege equipment can be improved to help us resist the opponent's attack?" ”
Akon thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, Mozi's city defense skills are really powerful, you can see that even when the other party attacked the city wall, the chaff and filth used to confuse the eyes of the other soldier's eyes were prepared. What else can we think about? ”
"Well, however, it's a pity that the sandalwood thrown down by the defending troops in front of you is a pity, and if you also install a rope, you can use a winch to recover it and use it repeatedly. Moreover, if the opponent climbs up on the ladder, he can also use the winch to pull up and down to kill the soldiers who climb on the ladder. I see that the winches of the damaged bed crossbows can still be used, so let them improve the ...... of the sassalwood."
Zhang Fan immediately asked Akon to prepare to transform those sassal woods, perhaps Lu Ban took a big advantage this time, so Zhang Fan's defending troops got an hour's respite. In this hour, the Mo family army repaired some arrow towers and city defense equipment, and also transformed a batch of sassal wood in case of emergency.
When Zhang Fan Aken inspected the city defense, Zhang Fan saw several traffic jams at the city gate, and he was quite interested and took a closer look. There seemed to be some thoughts in my heart, but I couldn't grasp them for a while. The traffic jam was used to push forward and plug the hole when the city gate was broken. The overall shape is that of a cart with a baffle more than one meter square in front and densely covered with blades. Two or three people can operate it individually, push the cart to the hole, and the blade on the baffle can effectively defend against the impact of the other party.
"I remember reading a historical document in the past, which talked about the city defense equipment, and the kind of sassal wood you renovated also has. It seems that I remember that there is something very similar to this traffic jam, and I have forgotten what it looks like. But not in this era, it seems to be close to the Song Dynasty. Zhang Fan scratched his head, and couldn't remember that very powerful city defense equipment for a while.
"And do you remember where it was used?" Akon was interested and reminded him.
Zhang Fan thought for a while, "It should be used at the head of the city to prevent the other party from climbing up." Siege, I would only have noticed a lot of people climbing up. Who would have thought that there were so many ways to defend the city. ”
Akon stopped talking, and stepped forward to carefully inspect the traffic jam, which was used on the city, could it be to throw the traffic jam down? Oh yes. The front baffle is covered with sharp knives, and if you remove it and smash the soldiers who are climbing on the ladder, they won't have anywhere to run! Don't be torn apart by the blade yet! What a powerful blade, if it is covered with sharp knives on both sides, and the two sides are pulled by ropes, four soldiers can control it, and use it to slap and assassinate the enemy! Hehe, it's really a good device! Akon Yin laughed.
"What? What did you think of? Zhang Fan was thinking hard, but he heard Akon laughing.
Akon patted Zhang Fan on the shoulder, "Fortunately, you reminded us that we have one more defensive weapon!" Someone! …… Go and tear down the gate of the city for my uncle! The thicker the better......"
A door panel sawn in half is just right! The four corners of both sides are fixed with long ropes, and long nail sharp knives are installed on both sides of the door panel, and the soldiers on both sides pull the long rope and shake it hard, and the door panel full of long nails is shot head-on, and it is really terrible! If there were dozens, or even hundreds, of these nail boards at the head of the city, and they were arranged in a nail board array, it would be a nightmare for the besiegers!
Akon arranged the task, and his own Mo soldiers carried it out meticulously. The people of the city have long been organized by them, and they are all like puppets to obey the arrangement, responsible for the transportation of weapons, logistics and other work.
Re-ascended to the top of the city, Zhang Fan wondered why the opponent didn't attack yet, and only after looking at the sky did he understand. It turned out that where Luban was letting the defenders breathe, it was clearly waiting for dark, the opponent's vision was blocked, and he was preparing to attack the city at night!
You must know that at night, in order to see each other approaching clearly in the castle tower, torches will inevitably be lit. That just gave the besiegers a clear goal. The besieging side doesn't have to have torches on, as long as there is light at intervals and you can see the layout clearly. In this way, the enemy is clear and I am dark, and the side of the Mo family army has been weakened to the greatest extent!
The sky gradually darkened, and the sharp-eyed Yao Ji found that there were more than a dozen small black dots flying in the sky, and they were wooden kites again. Zhang Fan immediately summoned two ghost fighters to meet him. Under the sky, the army outside the city also began to move slowly!
Lu Ban's wooden kite still relies on two bionic wings as power, and it is estimated that there may be a rune array of wind spells on the wings, so the speed is not very fast, after all, it can't catch up with the agility of the ghost fighter. Therefore, the two ghost fighters were entangled with more than a dozen wooden kites, and they did not fall behind. However, the opponent let five wooden kites entangle the ghost fighter, and the rest still flew over, trying to drop bombs!
This time Yao Ji learned to be obedient, she bowed three arrows, aiming at the oil tank hanging on the belly of the wooden kite, three cyan arrows actually shot the hook off, and the oil tank that lit the fuse fell from the sky to the Chu army position, coincidentally, there was actually a trench bridge below, which was immediately ignited! The firelight illuminated the front of the Chu army, and the black-pressed army pressed up densely!
When these wooden kites approached the city, the oil canisters below were shot down by Yaoji. The controller on the wooden kite can only shoot arrows to comfort the Mo family's city defense troops. On the other side of the sky, the ghost fighter has also dealt with the five wooden kites. With full firepower, they swooped down towards the ten wooden kites on this side. The air was entangled again......
This time, with the help of the cover of night, the Chu army drove the Linche Nest Car to the front and shot at the defenders of the city! The moat bridge that followed closely behind took the opportunity to march to the trench and set up a path! There are also dozens of earthen platforms outside the city, thousands of archers are lined up, and arrows are like flying locusts, and the height of these earthen platforms is the same as the head of the city, or even higher. This completely suppressed the defending archers in terms of firepower!
The firepower of the Mo defenders at the head of the city was much weaker than that of the Chu army after replenishing the siege equipment. In the darkness of the night, the accuracy is also much worse. However, the enemy's catapult was guided by the fire of the city, and the quasi-head was wonderful, causing great losses to the Mo army. This eliminated the other's strengths, and the gap in firepower between the two sides immediately widened! The Mo family army has been completely suppressed!
The Chu army's trench bridge actually lost only three, and Yaoji shot and destroyed one of them. And the arrow tower at the head of the city was smashed by the opponent's catapult more than a dozen of them! For a time, the cloud ladder troops of the Chu army did not receive an effective blockade, and they overwhelmed the city! And the soldiers of the Chu army who were pressed by the black behind rushed up with shouts......
Zhang Fan and his companions were a little flustered in their hearts.
The ladders were skillfully erected by the bean soldiers of the Chu army, and they were about to be hung on the city with the hook at the top!
