Don't look at this kind of technical improvement, in fact, it is very significant.
On the one hand, it saves the difficulty of transporting and marching, and avoids the overall marching speed being slowed down by carrying large equipment; On the other hand, it can confuse enemy forces.
Kong Sheng ordered Nan Yong to conduct many experiments, and the fastest speed of assembling a catapult was only five or six minutes, even if the enemy army realized the danger, it was actually too late to respond.
As for the stone bullets, they can be completely made from local materials.
A moment later, the red order flag in Nan Yong's hand was raised high.
In front of the 300 brand-new assembled catapults, the six soldiers of the Divine Machine Battalion twisted their ropes and prepared to go.
The remaining four soldiers quickly loaded the prepared stones of different sizes into the launch kits, and if you were interested, you could also notice that these stone bullets of different shapes were actually mixed with bags of white powdery substance.
Nam Yong shouted: "It's all there, ready" Ten soldiers pulled the rope in unison, and with the waving of the red order flag in Nan Yong's hand, three hundred catapults rose into the sky, crossed the head of the Xia Yi army's formation, and fell towards the rebel formation with a roar.
The soldiers of Xia Yi raised their necks one after another, staring at the roar of the rain of stone bullets with solemn expressions, the weapons in their hands trembled slightly, they knew that the time to charge into battle was coming soon.
Countless stone bullets fell from the sky and instantly fell into the rebel formation.
Huang Tao's military horses were caught off guard and couldn't dodge, and a round of stone bullets rained down like a curtain, killing and injuring countless people.
The formation was suddenly chaotic, and the rebel soldiers cried wolf howls, dodging and fleeing, and the officers could not suppress it at all.
That's fine.
This is not the most critical factor causing the chaos of the rebels, as the stone bullets fall, the white powdery substance drifts away with the wind, forming a fog of smoke, many soldiers' eyes are blown into the powder, the fire burns the ground painfully, the rebels are in a mess, the soldiers who cover their eyes and scream and kill each other, plus the killing of stone bullets, the scene is unbearable.
Three rounds of stone bullet rain attacks, like the wrath of heaven thunder killing, the white powder leaked to form the smoke became thicker and thicker, the rebel formation could no longer be controlled, and the total rout, the wounded soldiers screamed and fled in all directions.
A touch of indifference flashed in Kong Sheng's eyes.
He raised the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand high, and roared angrily: "Drum and bow barracks, up" In front of Bianzhou City.
The battle between the Xi people and the rebels had already fallen to a disadvantage, and the casualties were heavy.
However, the rebel formation was suddenly chaotic, the troops were defeated like a tide, and the rebels who were fighting with the Xi soldiers were disrupted by their own people who were defeated from behind, and in desperation, many people were forced to flee in all directions.
The decline was reversed in an instant.
Su Wu was covered in blood, brandishing a bright silver spear, commanding her people to rise to courage, gather forces, twist into a rope, fight outside, and gradually fight out of the encirclement.
The Xiayi army all over the mountains shouted and chased after them, and as far as the eye could see, they were all rebel soldiers fleeing in embarrassment, throwing away their armor, covering the ground with battle flags, and corpses all over the field.
Su Wan's spirit was close to the critical point of collapse, she beat the spirit of the prancing horse gallop, and took advantage of the situation to shoot a rebel soldier who fled down, when the corner of her eye found a white clothes and bright armor of the elegant back is waving the eye-catching Fang Tian painting halberd to impact her, her eyes suddenly darkened, and she fell down from the horse, unconscious.
As the sun sets, the battle is completely over.
Outside the city of Bianzhou, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, the air was filled with a strong bloody atmosphere, and the corpses of rebel soldiers were everywhere, and the scene was extremely tragic.
In this battle, part of the rebels died in cannibalism, part of them died in the defeated army, and part of them were annihilated on the spot by the Xiayi army, although the final results have not yet been counted, but by visual inspection alone, Kong Sheng knew that the rebel casualties were definitely more than twenty or thirty thousand.
Su Wu lay quietly on the stretcher and fell asleep.
She was highly nervous, she didn't close her eyes for a day and a night, and she was always in a state of desperate fighting, and her mental consumption was overdrawn.
When she realized on the battlefield that her clansmen finally had a glimmer of life, and Kong Sheng led the main force of the Xia Yi army to rescue her, her tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and the whole person fell into a deep coma.
Kong Shengqi sat in front of Su Wan's stretcher, his expression solemn and complicated.
In this battle, the Xia Yi army won an unprecedented victory, but this did not make Kong Sheng happy, but felt heavy because of the fall of countless lives.
If he had a choice, he would rather do nothing than commit such a killing.
But the two armies are facing each other, either you die or I die, this kind of war in the era of cold weapons is not something that Kong Sheng can control at all.
Nan Yong ran over excitedly, turned over and dismounted, and bowed to Kong Sheng: "Taishou, our army won a great victory, annihilated most of the rebels, and obtained countless grains, grass, baggage and weapons."
Nan Yong's report on the results of the battle had just begun, and was interrupted by Kong Sheng's somewhat heavy voice: "Nan Yong, keep talking, pass the order, clean up the battlefield, bury the corpses of the rebels on the spot, quickly replenish the food and grass supplies, and rest on the spot for a day." ” Kong Sheng waved his hand a little tiredly, and said, "How about the casualties of Xi people?"
"More than 4,000 people died and more than 1,000 were injured."
Nan Yong said softly.
Kong Sheng gasped when he heard this.
Of the fifteen thousand Xi soldiers, the casualties were more than one-third, and this kind of loss was probably not something that Su Wu and Su Lu could bear.
Kong Sheng looked at Su Wu with a solemn expression, and sighed: "Calm down the Xi people and rest on the spot." ” Nan Yong hesitated for a moment, and said respectfully: "Taishou, won't our army enter Bianzhou City?"
Kong Sheng looked up at the ancient majestic city bathed in the blood-colored remnant sun in front of him, and slowly shook his head: "Nan Yong, post notices everywhere to inform the people of the city, just say that the officials and soldiers will not offend the people's livelihood, and let the people guard their homes and not panic." ” A hint of wonder flashed in Nan Yong's eyes.
Kong Sheng didn't plan to enter Bianzhou City, which made him unexpected.
The city defense of Bianzhou City is profound, and the Xia Yi army stationed in this city is enough to defend this city with the current strength.
In Nan Yong's view, instead of bothering to lose his own strength to attack Luoyang, which has more than 100,000 rebels, it is better to stay in Bianzhou and wait for the changes.
Kong Sheng got up and slowly paced along the official road leading to Bianzhou City.

The two soldiers hurriedly lifted Su Wan's stretcher, while Li Biao and Li Hu commanded hundreds of Mo sword troops to follow closely and guard them.
Just finished the battle, who knows if there are still rebel stragglers on the battlefield, if a few people come out to assassinate Kong Sheng, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Kong Sheng walked under the deep city gate, looked up at the mossy and wet city gate hole, stared for a long time, and let out a long sigh.
Li Biao and Li Hu glanced at each other, and they both read doubts in each other's eyes.
They don't know why Kong Sheng is heavy and sad, such an unprecedented victory, such a prominent military exploit, enough to paint a strong stroke on Kong Sheng's personal career, and what else does he have to be unhappy about7 t1706231537:
