Chapter 481 Heartfelt voice
Chapter 481: Voices from the Heart (Page 1/1)
Before nightfall, many people were trapped in it, and the number of Northern Wei cavalry could not be seen clearly arrived first, and the heavy dust smell of the black pressure was like a prelude to a sandstorm.
There were many generals in the cavalry army who noticed that the atmosphere here was a little strange for the first time, smelling the thick bloody smell in the turbulent river in front of them, looking at Zhongli City, who was still calm at this time, their somewhat lazy faces gradually became serious.
There must be a big problem with this.
And in such a war, the problem can mean the life and death of many people.
The rear of the cavalry arrived one after another chariots and carriages.
These chariots and wagons were towed with military supplies, ordnance accounted for the vast majority, and grain and grass were not much.
Because there were no decent battles along the way, and no large forces of Southern Korean troops were found, these chariots and carriages did not deliberately maintain their formation, and gradually stopped in a large open space behind the cavalry.
The first infantry army, which had arrived in the rear after a long time, filled all the gaps in these carriages and horses, and then a large number of large ordnance and heavily armored sergeants arrived.
A large number of ordnance, as tall as the ladder, but more stout, brought a strong sense of oppression to the Northern Wei soldiers below.
In particular, several complete "mountain jumping cars", this is a new type of catapult that was put into the battlefield for the first time under the Seigong workshop of Zhongshan Wang Yuanying, this kind of catapult is different from most of the catapult catapults in the Northern Wei Dynasty before, it uses a winch to lift the weight, and at the moment of the bullet rope throwing, one end of the heavy object also falls sharply, which brings more powerful projectile ability. The heavy stones projected by ordinary catapults are only eighty or ninety catties, and they shoot about 100 steps, but the new type of catapult that the Northern Wei Dynasty workshop put into the battlefield this time has more than doubled the range, and the heavy stones that can be projected are more than 150 catties.
The only defect of this catapult is that it is huge, and it is difficult for ordinary sergeants to reset after some winches are disassembled, so it has been used as a fixed ordnance in some important cities in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
For such an army, war horses and sufficient manpower are not a problem, the difficulty only lies in the terrain.
This huge ordnance can only be marched on flat terrain, and it is impossible to climb over steep terrain, even for ordinary cavalry can walk on flat ground in some river valleys and hilly areas, when towing this huge ordnance, it is necessary to be extremely careful to prevent it from capsizing.
In case it falls down, it is not just as simple as killing some sergeants, but the lives of some ordinary sergeants cannot be compared with the value of such a giant ordnance.
When these huge ordnances, brought with the army during the long journey, as if displaying the miracles of the Northern Wei Dynasty, arrived, when their huge bodies blocked the last rays in the western sky, and their huge shadows shrouded the heads of many sergeants and chariots, the commander of the Northern Wei Dynasty on the extraordinarily wide and heavy chariot Xi Ruyu asked the military advisor beside him, "How are you going to start?"
"The breaking of the walls and the laying of floating objects began at the same time. ”
The military advisor looked at the north wall of Zhongli that was gradually shrouded in darkness, and looked at the Southern Dynasty people who were still standing like javelins, and his voice was slightly cold: "Their morale is not bad now, I will first directly break their morale, use ordnance to directly blast the north wall, smash their city wall, kill some people, let them lose the benefits of the city wall, I will see if they still have morale." ”
Xi Ruyu was sure that his military advisor was the same as he thought, and he was even more sure that there was no problem with his mentality at this time.
"That's what it begins. ”
He nodded unusually simply.
Several stern but not loud orders rang out, followed by a flood of more orders.
The main army of this Northern Wei army has not completely stopped, but the more than 30,000 vanguard troops in front of it, which have been silent for a long time, seem to have been whipped by many invisible whips, and all of them have moved.
With countless shouts, large swaths of space were vacated to make way for the main army in the rear.
The sound and the breath of the army when they moved seemed to form a substance, and the heat in the air slapped the entire Zhongli City in waves, watching this kind of picture that only has been recorded in the history books appear so real in front of them, all the Southern Dynasty soldiers were in a trance.
"This wall can't hold it. ”
A woman's voice sounded calmly at this time.
Lin Yi turned around and looked at Bai Yuelu, who was speaking out at this time.
Bai Yuelu walked directly to Lin Yi's side and stood side by side with him.
She had a completely different position from all the Southern Dynasties here, but looking at the more than 100,000 Northern Wei troops, she knew very well that if there was no miracle, this would probably be the last time she and Lin Yi spent together.
She looked at the movement of the Northern Wei army in the dark, and said slowly: "Some weapons can directly attack the north wall where we are located at the edge of Jiangxinzhou, and at most it will take more than an hour, and this wall should be smashed in many places." ”
Many Southern Dynasty soldiers on the city wall looked at her with suspicion, but Lin Yi did not have the slightest suspicion.
He nodded slowly and said, "But it is impossible for us to stop their ordnance from being transported to Jiangxin Prefecture. ”
"Any commander capable of commanding such a large army is more experienced than we are, and they will not make mistakes in these areas, not just pontoons, they should be equipped with heavy boats. ”
Bai Yuelu looked at Lin Yi calmly and said, "Since you regard me as your military advisor, I have the responsibility to remind you, plus the time for them to attack the city with ordnance, you should have nearly two hours, in these two hours, you should try your best to build some defensive lines behind the north wall, so that after the north wall is damaged, their heavy cavalry and heavy armor will not be flattened." ”
This sentence is her heart.
It was difficult for Lin Yi to understand her mood at this time, but as a native of the Northern Wei Dynasty, even if she decided to assist Lin Yi as a military advisor of the Tiece Army from the beginning, it would be very heavy for her to say these words now.
Lin Yi knew very well what kind of impact the iron flow formed by a large number of heavy cavalry and heavy armored sergeants would have on the sergeants in the city, he nodded, turned to look at Wang Chaozong and other generals, and said, "We need to give up the northern wall directly, but we can't let the Northern Wei people outside see it." ”
"Good. ”
Wang Chaozong nodded directly and walked back.
He and Lin Yi didn't even have an in-depth conversation, but this is the case on the battlefield, being able to face death calmly together means that they are the same kind of people, just like friends who have known each other for many years.
"I'll take Xue Jiu and them too. ”
Qi Zhuji also walked towards the bottom of the city wall. In a large battle formation, he thinks that he may not be as good as Wang Chaozong, but if he talks about cleverness, small means, and insidious ambushes, he feels that he sometimes thinks more comprehensively.
