Chapter 393: The Offensive Frustrated
Countless arrows continued to shoot down, and Jiang Ying's body began to fail to support him. He stood up first, then knelt down, and finally fell to a few steps away from the city gate.
In the city gate, a group of soldiers holding spears were carrying the reflection of the spears, so dazzling that if the other party rushed in, the first thing they faced was such a metal wall.
Although the deployment was very tight, Jiang Ying secretly scolded the other party for being stupid in his heart. Why didn't he close the city gate? This is much more effective than using this spear formation. The commander who guarded the city made so many mistakes, but unfortunately, he had no chance to break through this spear formation.
How could he know that Liu Gou'er did this on purpose? If he hadn't done this, how could he lure these cavalry to come and die? The cavalry came and went like the wind, and only by letting them get closer can they kill more enemies.
This suspension bridge is the Miao people's Naihe Bridge.
The people behind saw Jiang Ying falling down, were filled with righteous indignation, and no one was afraid. They all rushed forward desperately, and the city was broken, just in front of them.
At this time, the stuff left by the peddlers outside became an obstacle. In order to avoid this obstacle, some people accidentally fell off their horses.
The others still went to the suspension bridge. Thinking of the women in Songjiang Mansion, everyone was very excited. Going to the city first means getting the property and getting the women. Along the way, they let go of all the villages along the way. Wasn't they just waiting for this opportunity? At this time, they burst out with the most powerful force, and they all seemed to be not afraid of death, with arrows inserted into their bodies and continued to rush forward.
Liu Gou'er was under the greatest pressure at this time because he was almost playing with fire. His military strategy was orthodox, and he should have been to stick to the city, and it was definitely not to lead a wolf into the house. Fortunately, Liu Gou'er had never learned the military strategy and could not recognize many big words. He knew that only in this way could he attract all the Miao army and kill more enemies.
The archers were shooting, and there were only one hundred people below. The archers were completely enough. The main weapons of the city guarding, crossbow machines, and bowl guns were still waiting quietly. Their target was the cavalry that was rushing towards them like a tide in the distance.
This also gave the people below an illusion that there was nothing but bows and arrows above this city, and there was no denser bows and arrows. As long as they were not afraid of death and worked harder, they could break the city.
On the suspension bridge, the bodies were everywhere, and people continued to step on the bodies and rushed into the city gate.
Finally, someone approached the spear formation. The first one to go up was immediately stabbed several holes. He died, pushed forward, and took two steps back against the person holding the spear.
Unfortunately, there were no ones following behind. If more than a dozen people came over at once, they might be able to step on the handle of the spear.
Liu Gou'er looked into the distance. At this time, the cavalry running, even the farthest, had reached the range of the bowl gun at the top of the city.
Can't wait any longer.
"The crossbow machine and the bowl-mouth gun are fired in two batches, alternately." Liu Gou'er ordered.
If the volley is shot, the scene is spectacular, but it cannot form continuous firepower. If it is divided into two batches, it can be achieved uninterrupted. Moreover, these Miao soldiers can't understand how many defensive weapons are on the city.
With Liu Gou'er's order, the crossbowman who had already prepared a long time ago raised a sledgehammer and used all his strength to hammer the plate machine. With a "bang", the huge crossbow arrow roared towards the enemy. This was a three-bow bed crossbow, and the crossbow arrow was almost the same as the spear used by soldiers, and its power was even more amazing.
"Puchi!" The crossbow arrow shot into the chest of a cavalry with force and flew up, then pierced into the chest of a cavalry behind, until the third place, a candied haws were made. The three people screamed and shouted about death. Then, they fell down and were stepped on by countless horse hooves.
"Boom, boom!" Although the bowl-mouth gun is an advanced firearm, it also takes time to click the twister, so it is closer than the attack of the bed crossbow. With this sound, the fire of the muzzle flashed and countless stones flew out.
In offensive operations, for example, on warships, the bowl guns are loaded with single projectiles, while against the current enemies, they are loaded with countless small stones, which are scattered together, similar to the shotguns in later generations.
The rain of bullets flew down from the sky, and suddenly, the cavalry felt that their bodies were hit by stones. Some were smashed to spit blood. They forced themselves to continue rushing forward, while others fell off their horses and turned into meat paste.
Crossbows, shells, bows and arrows are flying down the city. In the war of thousands of years, the Central Plains have continuously improved these siege equipment, allowing the Miao people who live in a corner to taste the real power of the meat grinder.
Even Tutuo, who was a million troops, did not dare to let the soldiers fill this bottomless pit directly. He first used a catapult cart and a powerful Huihuan to suppress the opponent's city wall and prevent the opponent from using long-range weapons. Then he sent troops to climb the city wall. Even so, there were heavy casualties.
However, Lu Cai didn't know this. He did not judge the situation clearly and kept commanding the army to rush forward. The battle continued on the suspension bridge. He believed that as long as he worked harder, the city would be broken in front of him.
It was a bait, a bait that kept them dead.
The rising sun was like fire, and the battle at the East City Gate was going on fiercely this morning.
There are also Miao people who are dismounting and want to fight back on the head of the city with their bows and arrows. However, their hunting bows are behind and they fly more than 80 steps, and they are already light. Now, they have to shoot at the head of the city, and their lethality is almost zero.
Suddenly, blood was everywhere around Miao Bing. The blood rain stimulated the bloodiness of Miao people. They stripped off their upper body, exposed the muscles in front of their chests, raised their heads, and cursed at the head of the city. Even the other party's eighteen generations of non-direct relatives greeted each other.
Unfortunately, it was useless. The city was not able to understand. The response to him was an arrow shot into his chest covered with chest hair.
"Master Qianhu, the people below are almost unable to hold on. The Miao people are fighting fiercely." A hundred-household household said to Liu Gou'er.
Although the dismounted people were holding spears, Miao people kept rushing up, and their camp was also a little shaky. Although they had been fighting and persevering, they were already exhausted.
If they fail, they have no way to retreat. The gate of the urn city cannot be opened. The people who remain in the urn city will be in trouble, because these people may be mixed with spies, so the gate inside cannot be opened before the army outside retreats.
Looking at the Miao soldiers who were still rushing to death, Liu Gou'er could not continue to slaughter them, so she could only order: "Breaking off the suspension bridge!"
Hearing his order, something tied up in a square shape on the top of the city was hung with a rope and quickly put it down, shaking it on the head of a Miao soldier, and falling to his feet.
Miao Bing, who was stepping on the corpse and was about to enter the door, looked at the thing hesitantly. What is this? Xu Xing was still whispering from above.
As the Xuxing was about to come, there was a pungent smell. Suddenly, he thought of something and was shocked and wanted to pick up the thing and throw it out.
Unfortunately, before he could bend down, he heard a loud bang. Then, he felt his body flying higher and higher. His body did not hurt, but he felt a numbness.
What was thrown down was a package full of black gunpowder, with ten thunders thunders stuffed inside. Although the iron chain of the suspension bridge had been broken and the suspension bridge could not be collected. However, Liu Gou'er had a solution long ago. If she couldn't take it back, she could blow it up!
Simple black gunpowder cannot be regarded as a **. It must be detonated in a confined space to play the strongest role. Therefore, the main thing that really blows up the bridge is the main function of the thunder.
With the loud noise, the suspension bridge was immediately broken. The corpses on it were also scattered. The soldiers guarding the city gate felt a wave of air coming. Fortunately, they had already taken more than ten steps forward and hid in the city gate hole. If they were at the beginning, they would definitely be injured.
As soon as the suspension bridge was broken, the bodies on it fell into the moat. Unless Lu Cai continued to rush forward and filled the moat with corpses, the city gate could not be taken down at all. However, the few Miao soldiers who were still in the city gate cave were unable to retreat and were all stabbed to death by spears.
The loud noise broke Lu Cai's fantasy of continuing to attack. He had just realized that he had been fooled.
Under the city, there were corpses.
This was Chen Feng's army, and the first time he had formally contacted these Miao soldiers. Before that, the Miao soldiers' bravery had always been said to be invincible. This time, their myth was finally broken.
What touched the most was not the defenders on the city, but the people. When they heard that the Miao people were beaten to death, many people wanted to leave the city immediately and whip a few more whips on the body. Many people experienced it personally, or had relatives, and were oppressed by the Miao people. At the same time, their fear of the Miao people was greatly reduced. No one could defeat Lord Chen's army, whether it was the Tartars or the Miao people. Of course, this is a later story.
Now, although the people of the Tsai have retreated, this is still just the beginning.
An hour later, a large number of Miao troops arrived, and their speed was beyond everyone's expectations.
In the Qianli Mile Mile Mile, Liu Gou'er could see that these Miao soldiers were rushing to build a ladder in a safe place behind.
"Liu Qianhu, you did a good job this time and made great contributions." At this time, a voice came from your ears.
Liu Gou'er put down the Qianli Mile Mile Mile, turned her head and looked at it, and said, "Mr. Yang, why are you here? This city is dangerous."
