Chapter 122: Knocking (seeking a monthly ticket)

.Hulao Pass, after a whole day, Liang's second-bo attack finally began.

"Hi Ho, La Ho, Hi Ho, La Ho..." Accompanied by the extremely rhythmic sound of trumpets, tens of thousands of Liang army light soldiers dragged hundreds of towering catapults to Hulao Pass. Following the hundreds of catapults, there were dozens of towering well railings, dozens of cloud ladders and several bulky and huge siege cars.

Around these huge siege equipment, there were ants-like Liang army armored soldiers.

Liu Kou was wearing heavy armor, with a cold expression, and stood proudly on one of the well railings. This well railing was about one zhang higher than the other forty well railings, but the watchtower on the top was only one floor, and it could only accommodate more than a dozen people. Obviously, this well railing was not used for combat, but for observing the virtual and real enemy troops.

Hundreds of steps ahead, Hulao could not be blocked by four feet high walls and had to look down.

General Chu Chun gently knocked on the guardrail of the watchtower, and Liu Kou said, "General, this time, Hulao Pass will be taken down!"

Liu Kou shook his head silently. He dared not be as optimistic as Chu Chun. Even though his army had more than 200 catapults, more than 40 well railings and more than 50 ladders, the Liang army faced the Chu army this time, which killed more than 100,000 Liu Bang's army and did not dare to stay in the Dabie Mountains. The tragic battle would definitely be beyond imagination!

"Hi Ho, La Ho, Hi Ho, La Ho..."

"Hi Ho, La Ho, Hi Ho, La Ho..."

"Hi Ho, La Ho, Hi Ho, La Ho..."

Amid the loud and rhythmic sound of the horns, tens of thousands of Liang troops slowly approached Hulao Pass with hundreds of heavy siege equipment. When less than a hundred steps away from Hulao Pass, Liu Kou raised his right hand gently. In an instant, all the heavy siege equipment stopped at the same time.

The sound of the horn that had originally resounded through the sky suddenly stopped in an instant, and the entire battlefield suddenly fell into death silence.

In the suffocating silence, Liu Kou raised his right hand and suddenly pressed towards Xuxu in front of him and issued an order to attack with a cold expression: "Cattaker, start attacking."

Zaochun, behind Liu Kou, walked to the guardrail, raised a triangle flag and waved it twice.

In an instant, endless sounds of horns and loud war drums sounded in the Liang army formation.

With the sound of horns and war drums, Liang Jun Ruiz began to get busy. Hundreds of light soldiers put pieces of huge rocks into the big hanging basket of the catapult cart. Tens of thousands of strong soldiers with their backs were divided into more than 200 teams, each with fifty people. Under the command of their respective teams, they began to pull dozens of ropes connected to the catapult's swing arms.

With the efforts of tens of thousands of strong soldiers, more than 200 swing arms were pulled up by the foot of the tower of the stone castle. With the erecting of the swing arms, the hanging basket tied to the far end of the swing arms was also thrown high into the air. When the hanging basket crossed the high point, the huge rock placed inside suddenly broke away from the jagged basket and roared forward...

Hulao is closed.

When huge black shadows appeared in the sky ahead, the new recruits on the wall finally started to move.

"Oh my god, what's that thing? Damn, what the hell is that?"

"It's only a hundred steps that are so big that it's thrown so far. It's probably just a reed grass?"

"The bird is a stone. You can see it clearly. It's all a stone. Find a place to hide."

However, the new recruits' sāo chaos was immediately scolded by veterans and primary schools at all levels. Although the catapult carts are powerful, their accuracy is worse than that of crossbows. Even if hundreds of catapult carts are bombarded in a concentrated manner, there are still not many stone bombs that can actually fall to the top of the city. However, the walls of Hulao Pass will have to withstand the cruel test.

"If you don't want to die, just stay where you are! Don't move!"

"Don't panic, everyone, don't panic, the stone will not fall on your head!"

"Babys, tell you, don't run around, the faster you die!"

With the scolding of veterans and primary schools at all levels, the new recruits' chaos finally subsided.

The next moment, hundreds of huge rocks had already smashed down from the sky with a harsh roar. As the veterans and the school said, most of the stones had crossed the city wall and fell into the pass, or directly hit the huge cross section of the front of the city wall. There were very few stones falling directly on the pass.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

With the huge impact, hundreds of huge rocks had already hit the surface of the city wall.

In an instant, the bricks on the surface of the city wall were smashed to pieces, and the rammed earth inside was smashed and straightened. When the smoke and dust dissipated, hundreds of large pits were left on the wall of the originally flat city wall, and two basins on the top of the city were also smashed to pieces. The two new recruits could not dodge and were smashed into meat paste.

The bombardment of Liang Jun's catapult lasted for half a quarter of an hour. More than 200 catapults threw at least 2,000 huge rocks at Hulao Pass, of which at least more than 1,000 fell on the front of the wall, and collapsed the wall of Hulao Pass and was full of scars, which was terrible. However, there were only a few stones on the wall and were directly killed by the stones. There were less than fifty soldiers.

However, the enemy building that was closed was smashed, and more than a hundred archers guarding the enemy building were buried alive.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the bombardment of Liang's catapult stopped. Liang's general Liu Kou also knew very well that it was impossible to directly smash the wall of Hulao Pass with the catapult. Although the wall of Hulao Pass was already scarred, for the wall of Hulao Pass with a thickness of more than five meters, this level of damage was nothing at all.

It is similar to the intensive shooting of archers. The attack of a catapult can only cause truly fatal damage under specific conditions. However, in most cases, these two methods are only used to shock the enemy and destroy the morale of the enemy. The real killer weapon used to seize the city is the cloud ladder, the well railing and the siege car!

On the high well railing, Liu Kou raised his right hand again, pressed forward again, and said lightly: "Transfer the order, cloud ladder, well railing, siege cars, and attack the city with all their strength!"

Liu Kou was just right. Since King Liang insisted on attacking the city, he would do his best.

"No!" Chu Chun responded with a loud voice, then raised several big flags and waved them hard.

In an instant, there were roars of shouts like overwhelming shouts in the Liang army formation. Thousands of Liang army soldiers rushed up, pulling and pulling, driving towering ladders, well railings and heavy siege cars slowly crushing towards the ruined Hulao Pass, which was full of devastated land.

"Is the final move going to begin?!"

Jing Qian couldn't help but look back and glance at Pang Yu.

From Pang Yu's eyes, Jing Qian saw the same solemnity. Liang Jun actually dispatched all the ladders and all the wells! As for those huge and bulky siege cars, the threat from the ladders and the wells was nothing, because the east gate of Hulao Pass had already been built with city bricks.

"roar!"

"roar!"

"roar!"

Amid the sound of Liang's tweets like tsunami, the two armies quickly approached.

Suddenly, the towering cloud ladder and the well railing were less than fifty steps away from Hulao Pass. The defenders at the pass could even see the hideous expression of the Liang Jun archer on the well railing opposite.

After just over fifty steps, the Liang Jun archer on the well railing suddenly launched an attack.

In an instant, a bobo's rain of arrows shot straight from more than forty well railings and poured out to the heads of the guards at the gate. The veterans of the Chu army were domineering and occupied a small dead corner next to the dou. Two thousand heavy armored infantry could barely support them with heavy armor and large shields, but the remaining more than seven thousand light soldiers could only wait to be slaughtered.

The Liang army archers' condescending direct shooting at close range posed a great threat to the guards at the gate.

In just less than a moment, at least four or five hundred people were shot and fell into a pool of blood. Nearly 10,000 new recruits were facing a cruel test. Huan Chu, Ji Bu, and Jing Qian would never doubt that if this situation lasted for another quarter of an hour, these new recruits would definitely collapse completely and turn around and escape. At that time, the Hulao Pass would be completely finished!

Although Jing Qian’s five hundred light soldiers were very brave, how could the five hundred people defend Hulao Pass?

Suddenly, Jing Qian, who was hiding behind the pile, raised his right hand, but soon, the other big hand pressed Jing Qian's big hand tightly again. Pang Yu bowed his back, avoiding the rain of arrows shot from the well railing ahead, and exhorted loudly: "General, it's not time yet, wait, wait a little longer!"

Jing Qian gritted his teeth and finally retracted his raised right hand. "The dense arrows poured down like a heavy rain on the high well railing.

On the Hulao Pass wall, more than 7,000 new recruits were running back and forth, shouting. From time to time, new recruits were shot into the belly or arm by arrows, and then they screamed and fell into a pool of blood.

Under Hulao Pass, the horns of the Liang army's light soldiers continued.

Accompanied by the sound of horns rising and falling, more than forty well railings continued to move forward, and finally entered within twenty steps!

The next moment, more than forty well railings finally stopped, but more than twenty cloud ladders continued to move forward, trying to pass through the gap between the well railings, preparing for the final snatch of the city.

A hundred steps away, Liu Kou slapped the guardrail of the watchtower heavily.

As long as these twenty cloud ladders are leaning against the wall, Hulao Pass will undoubtedly be broken!

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred, and hundreds of spears suddenly shot out from behind the Hulaoguan Pagoda. Almost all of these hundreds of spears hit the well railing twenty steps away. At the tail of the hundreds of spears, there was a hemp rope tied to the other end of the hemp rope suddenly reached the wall of Hulaoguan.

The next moment, the guards at the gate suddenly broke out and divided into hundreds of teams to pull the hemp rope to the side.

In an instant, more than forty towering wells began to tilt. Moreover, with the roaring waves of the guards at the close of the gate, the inclination angle of the wells was getting bigger and bigger, and it was about to lose its center of gravity and turn around! At this time, more than twenty cloud ladders just entered the gap between the wells...!
