Chapter 369: Breaking the City (I)


Outside Bao City, the army formed a formation.

Wang Can was dressed in golden armor and was riding on a Wuzui horse.

His expression was stern, his eyes were like daggers, and he had a black cloak behind him.

He looked up at the soldiers on the tower of Baocheng, his eyes flashing with light.

Behind him, the Hanzhong soldiers led by Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang looked serious.

As for the Langya soldiers led by Lu Meng, they stayed with Guo Jia to protect Guo Jia's safety.

Praise the city, on the tower.

A young general held the hilt of his sword with his left hand, his expression stern, and his body leaned forward slightly, looking at the scene outside the city.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at the dark Hanzhong army outside the city, with a look of worry on his face.

Then he suddenly looked back at the wealthy gentry standing on all sides of the city tower.

Seeing the malicious looks in everyone's eyes, the young general felt a chill running down his spine and sweat on his forehead, fearing that he would be eaten alive by these wealthy gentry.

"General, look, there are siege engines coming outside the city."

To the left of the young general, a soldier held a spear in his left hand and pointed outside the city with his right hand, with a look of fear in his eyes.

The young general looked around and saw ten siege engines standing outside the city.

Hundreds of kilograms of boulders were placed on the siege engines, ready to be thrown to the tower at any time.

Seeing this, the young general couldn't help but tremble.

Outside the city tower, in front of Wang Can's army.

A scout galloped up to Wang Can, dismounted, and said with cupped hands: "Sir, Mr.

Mo from the Craftsman's Workshop sent ten siege vehicles.

Each siege vehicle has ten craftsmen responsible for throwing large stones to attack the city. ” Wang Can thought for a moment and asked: "How accurate is it?"

The scout only got the news and didn't know much about the specific situation.

He hurriedly waved and summoned a craftsman who threw large rocks to explain to Wang Can.

When the craftsman came over, the scout asked Wang Can's question again.

The craftsman raised his hand and said: "Sir, all of us are skilled, and we are 99% sure that there will be no deviation in the direction of the tower.

And the big stone attack will be thrown from here.

The city will be thrown onto the tower without any deviation.

Please rest assured, I have been practicing for a hundred people and there will be no mistakes."

The craftsmen repeated it several times and said they could do it without making any mistakes.

Wang Can nodded and said: "Okay, immediately aim at the young general in the center of the tower and throw it to kill him."

"promise" The craftsman looked a little reserved, clasped his fists and shouted, then turned and left.

In the blink of an eye, ten siege engines began to move.

This kind of siege vehicle is actually based on the simplest lever principle.

The leverage principle is used to throw the large stone placed at one end of the siege vehicle onto the tower.

However, the real test of the school level is eyesight.

You must rely on eyesight to correct the direction, just like using a rifle to aim and shoot.

It is not just about having great strength to shoot the bullet out of the hole.

You must also aim at the position on the tower that needs to be thrown before you can throw the big stone. come out.

A siege vehicle is equipped with ten people, but there are four craftsmen who calibrate the projection direction.

Only after calibration by four people can the boulder be projected.

"put" With a loud shout, the boulder that was firmly placed at one end of the siege vehicle was thrown out.

After the boulder broke through the air, it was very fast and powerful, and could not block the thrown boulder at all.

"咻咻"

In an instant, ten large rocks weighing several hundred kilograms were thrown out like cannonballs, hitting the tower of Baocheng.

In the blink of an eye, the big stone was approaching the tower.

At this moment, the young general in charge of garrisoning Baocheng panicked when he saw the big stone shooting towards the direction where he was standing, and ran away quickly.

There is no way to resist the falling boulder, so you can only dodge it, and you can't fight back.

"boom" The first big stone fell on the tower and immediately made a big hole in the tower.

The young general wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, stood on the tower, and clearly felt the ground of the tower shaking slightly.

Looking back, he saw where the boulder fell, with dust a foot high and gravel flying everywhere.

The young general's cheeks twitched unconsciously.

With such a powerful siege weapon, Wang Can did not choose to attack the city, but waited until Yan Yan left.

If he attacks the city later, isn't this bullying him?

"Rumble" Waves of roaring sounds continued, and boulders kept falling.

Every big stone fell in the direction of the young general's escape, forcing the young general to run around on the tower.

Suddenly, a gravel flew out and hit the young general's forehead directly.

The huge force instantly scratched the skin on the young general's forehead, and blood immediately flowed out and stained his cheeks.

Not only that, his forehead was red and swollen and painful.

Within a quarter of an hour, many soldiers were hit on the tower, and the ground of the tower was smashed beyond recognition.

After being hit by a boulder, even if there were soldiers who survived, their arms or thighs were pressed under the boulder and they could not move.

They could only lie on the ground and howl.

Outside the city tower, the craftsman responsible for placing the big stones quickly ran to Wang Can and said, "Sir, the big stones brought have been used up, and we cannot continue to use the big stones to siege the city."

When the craftsman spoke, he looked a little scared.

After all, using siege weapons Car siege is too powerful and the effect is too obvious.

Suddenly there is no supply of big rocks, so there is no guarantee that Wang Can will be angry.

Wang Can looked indifferent and ordered: "If that's the case, then retreat."

"promise" The craftsman wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly retreated.

Wang Can smiled slightly and ordered: "Go and ask Lu Meng to come up with Langya."

"promise" When the soldiers heard this, they immediately went to convey the order.

Not long after, Lu Meng had already rushed to the front of the military formation with a hundred wolf fangs.

Lü Meng bowed to Wang Can and said: "The last general, Lü Meng, pays homage to the general."

Wang Can nodded and ordered: "Use crossbow arrows to shoot the Yizhou soldiers defending on the tower."

"The general will obey his orders" Lu Meng cupped his fists and shouted, then turned around to pass on the order.

One hundred young soldiers were divided into two rows.

They all took out their Majun crossbows from their backs and aimed at the soldiers on the tower.

At this moment, on the city tower, the look of the young general with blood on his forehead changed drastically.

He has been in the army for several years and knows how powerful crossbows are.

Suddenly, he saw a hundred young men in armor holding crossbows and standing outside the city, preparing to shoot, and he immediately panicked.

His head shrunk, his body leaned against the city wall, and he shouted: "Get down, everyone get down" The general's voice kept echoing on the tower.

Although many soldiers heard it, not all soldiers obeyed the general's order.

There were still many soldiers who stuck out their heads to see what was happening outside the city.

As soon as he stuck his head out, he heard the crossbow arrows piercing the air.

One hundred people fired, and five hundred crossbow arrows were fired immediately.

Each crossbow arrow is different from a bow and arrow.

Crossbow arrows are longer, thicker, sharper, and much more powerful than bows and arrows.

Five hundred crossbow arrows fell like a black rain of arrows.

The soldiers who had just stretched out their heads to look had no chance to retreat.

They were all hit in the body by the crossbow arrows.

The crossbow arrow hit the armor, making a crisp sound.

The huge power was transmitted from the crossbow arrow, and it instantly pierced the armor.

The arrow pierced the body of the soldier like flesh and blood.

There was a burst of crossbow arrows, and more than a hundred soldiers were hit by the crossbow arrows and collapsed to the ground without stopping.

Blood flowed out of the body, forming pools of blood on the tower, exuding a disgusting fishy smell.

The crossbows kept firing, and countless soldiers were killed.

For a time, there were wailings all over the city tower, and morale was low.

In fact, this is also because the young general responsible for defending the city lacks the ability to respond.

When Wang Can sent the young soldiers under Lu Meng to fire crossbows, he should immediately organize the soldiers to shoot with bows and arrows.

The one hundred young soldiers under Wang Can's command are different from the big-headed soldiers on the tower.

They are all trained with great effort, and it is impossible to shoot at the soldiers on the tower.

About a quarter of an hour later, Wang Can shouted to stop firing crossbows, and Lu Meng immediately retreated with the young soldiers.

A sneer appeared on Wang Can's face and he ordered: "Zhou Cang, let the soldiers shoot the prepared bows and arrows into the city."

"promise" Zhou Cang shouted and passed on the order.

In an instant, soldiers stood up one by one with stern expressions.

These soldiers were all holding war bows and arrows.

The bows and arrows were tied with a piece of silk, and Wang Can's letter of persuasion to surrender was written on the silk silk.

After hearing Zhou Cang's order, all the soldiers shot their bows and arrows onto the city tower.

Some bows and arrows were also shot into the city and were picked up by the people in the city.

There are not many bows and arrows, just a few hundred.

However, Wang Can believed that the content on the silk was enough to shake the soldiers guarding the city.

After a burst of bows and arrows, Wang Can stopped shooting and stopped to wait for the reaction from the tower.

One after another bows and arrows fell on the tower.

The soldiers saw a piece of silk tied to the bow and arrow and hurriedly took it off.

Some soldiers were illiterate, so they asked literate soldiers among their acquaintances to read what was written on the silk.

At this time, the soldiers on the city tower and the wealthy gentry were all browsing the contents of the silk.

There is not much content on the silk, its only purpose is to persuade surrender.

The general idea is that Yan Yan led the army to leave Baocheng and did not attack Wang Can.

Instead, he ran towards Nanzheng and prepared to attack Nanzheng.

Yan Yan led his troops to leave and abandoned Baocheng.

Now Baocheng is truly an isolated city and cannot continue to resist.

Wang Can hopes that the soldiers on the tower will surrender and not make unnecessary sacrifices.

Sure enough, the gentry and soldiers on the city tower looked at it with thoughtful expressions.

Among them, the heads of three wealthy families looked at each other and slowly walked towards the young general responsible for guarding the city.

The young general was very vigilant.

When he saw the three people approaching, he immediately shouted: "What are you doing, is it because you want to rebel?"

The three of them shook their heads in unison.

In order to show sincerity, the one on the right actually threw the sword in his hand on the ground and said: "General, I put down my weapon, which is enough to show my sincerity.

Besides, our family members are still in the hands of the general." , How dare you rebel?

As the saying goes, no harm comes to your wife and children.

I hope the general will keep his promise and let my family go after we die in the battle."

The other two people also threw away their weapons and nodded.

However, the three of them did not stop and continued walking towards the young general.

When the young general saw that all three people had dropped their swords, and listened to the words of the person on the right, his expression improved slightly.

However, he still held the sword in his hand tightly, and then nodded solemnly and said loudly: "As long as you try your best to defend the city, I will keep my promise and let your family members go after the war."

The three of them nodded to express their understanding.

At this time, the three of them had already walked to the young general.

The person standing on the right who spoke with a smile on his face said: "General, you also understand the current situation.

After Wang Can breaks the city, he will definitely kill the soldiers defending Baocheng.

Therefore, I would like to ask the general to be accommodating.

Can you You can't let go of one of the villain's sons first, leaving a trace of incense for the villain.

If Wang Can kills everyone, at least the villain's son can survive and kill the villain's family.

The bloodline continues.”

This guy was verbose and talked a lot, which made the young general a little upset.

He shook his head and refused: "No, you can't let anyone go."

"General, you can't be accommodating."

The man started talking again.

He opened his mouth to speak, but kept winking at the other two people.

The young general was impatient, raised his sword and pointed it at the person on the right, shouting: "If you continue to chirp again, I will order your whole family to be brought to the tower, and let them live and die with us."

"Yes, it's the villain who doesn't speak, who doesn't talk."

He seemed to be afraid of the young general and kept his mouth shut.

However, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a sneer. s: The second update of the third update, the third update is around 11 o'clock, please collect and send flowers
