Chapter 34 siege vehicles are dispatched


Whoever goes to be the target and lures the Turkic Condor archer to attack, thus creating an opportunity for Xue Na to counterattack and kill the opponent in one fell swoop It doesn't matter who wants to be this target, anyway, Zhao Wushu doesn't want to.

Merit and fame are a good thing that can improve one's situation, scoop you up from the lowest mud pit in the world, clean you, and give you an aura to enter the ranks of the Venerable One.

If Zhao Wudi wants to live a more nourishing life in the Tang Dynasty, no longer let his family live in a dilapidated thatched house and suffer, tremble in the miserable days, and beg God to leave them the last place to stay, then there is no choice, and they can't do without merit and fame.

But first, you have to survive As long as he can live, Zhao Wudi doesn't think that with his own civil and military training, he will live his family's life so much in fear.

As the saying goes, "wealth is sought in danger", but it can only be "risk", as for exchanging his life for wealth, Zhao Wudi will never do it.

This is not a fear of death, but the cherishing and respect of life, Zhao Wudi is a person who has died once, is it easy to get this opportunity to be a human being in two lives now In fact, Zhao Wudi misunderstood General Xue, and he just talked about things, and did not have the slightest intention of fooling him to be a bait.

If you want to be a lure for an eagle archer, you have to have that qualification.

Who is the Condor Archer?

They shoot eagles, the kings of the air, and they are not necessarily interested in wasting their strength and arrows on crows and sparrows.

On the top of today's Shuofang City, only Xue Na can barely be regarded as a half-sized eagle, and as for Zhao Wudi, he is a little bigger than a sparrow, and he can be regarded as a black crow.

Xerna is not enough bait, but he can't be a bait, otherwise, who will kill the Turkic Condor Archer Zhao Wudi had a headache and couldn't think of a good way, so he simply didn't want to, and waved his hand to forcibly expel these distracting thoughts from his mind.

Zhen Te Niang's salty radish is not worried, who will be the bait, can you kill the Turkic Condor Archer, what is Lao Tzu doing "The Turks are out of the camp" Just as Zhao Wushu was thinking nonsense, someone shouted, and he seemed to be very excited when he heard the voice.

Sure enough, the Turkic camp five miles away was like a pot of boiling water, and suddenly it boiled, and the neighing of horses, the howling of wild beasts, and all kinds of noise and noise were heard in the north wind.

Next, the huge iron pot fryer filled with boiling water poured out, and the cold wind and cold snow were all melted.

When the Turks came out of the camp, ten thousand horses galloped out, rushed straight to the city of Shuofang, stopped at a stone's throw away, and scattered in all directions, firmly controlling the empty outside of the city.

The momentum was so powerful and earth-shattering that it was as if the pot was not boiling with ordinary water, but with iron from the furnace, and after breaking the shackles, the torrent of steel was unstoppable, melting and evaporating all obstacles.

Ten thousand horsemen have come out, but this steel furnace has not stopped, followed by seven or eight huge cavalry siege vehicles slowly out, the rough wooden wheels crushed on the ice and snow, making a "creaking" sound, very harsh.

The cavalry siege engines moved very slowly, and because the front end was covered with wooden planks, it was impossible to see whether the oxen or the horses were used as traction power After the cavalry siege vehicle left the camp, the direction of walking was adjusted with the control and help of manpower.

Then, a total of eight siege vehicles lined up along the northern wall of Shuofang City, separated by a certain distance from each other, and came towards Shuofang City under the cover of cavalry.

The huge cavalry siege vehicles, lying in the ice and snow outside the city, look like a series of mountain beams, which is magnificent.

The soldiers of the border army above the city were stunned.

Although the general had already told them that this thing was called a cavalry siege vehicle, and with this thing, the city wall would lose its role in blocking the cavalry, and the moat would change its path from then on.

The Turkic cavalry can take advantage of this to rush to the head of the city in one breath, and although the walls of Shuofang City are not spacious, it is still possible to barely run horses, so that the foot soldiers of a city wall can face the menacing Turkic iron cavalry, and their fate can be imagined.

Although the general's words were foaming at the mouth and his voice was fierce, in fact, these killers did not take the general's words seriously, and they were quite unimpressed.

Cavalry siege Hehe, the general must have drunk too much wine last night, and he didn't wake up early in the morning, telling us myths and wine Now, the eight big guys who were moving slowly outside the city woke up in an instant as if they had poured a basin of snow water on their heads.

Many of the killers are veterans of the battlefield, and they look at the height of the siege engine and the sloping slope with their eyes, and there is nothing they don't understand When did the Turkic dog become more intelligent than our Tang people?

It's not normal, but it's so alive that they can't believe it.

People became cautious, and no one took the general's orders as wine talk anymore, but there was still a bit of mythology.

The border troops are all well-trained and good soldiers, unlike Jin Wuwei, who have never seen blood, once they recognize the general's words, they immediately execute the order quickly, unequivocally.

After all, the cavalry siege vehicles were too large to adjust their direction at will, and once corrected, they could only advance straight towards the city walls.

In this way, without much effort, the border soldiers estimated the position of the cavalry siege cart and the city wall, and immediately pushed the wooden houses with no effort to slide to the estimated place.

Moreover, they also lacked confidence in this kind of wooden house, and took it upon themselves to put the two next to each other so that they could be replaced with new ones in time.

The cavalry siege engines moved like beasts in the snow, and the Turkic cavalry was divided into eight teams, which were assembled behind the siege vehicles, moving with them, waiting for the siege moment to come.

The soldiers of the border army above the city head adjusted the position of the wooden houses from time to time according to the trajectory of the siege vehicle.

All the strong crossbows were concentrated in the wooden house, the auxiliaries piled up arrows behind the wooden house, and the other archers assisted on the periphery, and under Zhao Wudi's reminder, General Xue Na's order was to shoot down the war horses first.

The cavalry siege engines were not spacious, and the fallen horses would cause congestion and become an obstacle for the Turkic cavalry, delaying their charge.

And the greatest power of cavalry is to charge, once charged, it is a nightmare for the opponent.

However, the cavalry that could not rush up was in a narrow and crowded place, hehe, it became the best target.

The siege engines were still moving unhurriedly, but the Turkic iron cavalry behind them could not wait, they skillfully controlled the horses, raised their weapons high, and let out a beastly howl from their mouths, extremely excited.

A tragic siege battle, on the verge of breaking out:
