One Thousand Four Hundred and Eighty-One: Failing Nieliang, Attacking Yang Tao, and Pointing at the World (20)
Even if it was a tentative attack, the soldiers and horses under Nie Liang's tent were not easy to pinch, and they actually put a certain amount of pressure on Zhanjiang Pass.
However, Qi Guanrang had already considered this, and made full use of the terrain of Zhanjiang Pass. While commanding the city wall, he ordered the archers and soldiers manipulating the bed crossbows to focus on attacking the enemy's weak defenses. Cooperating with the terrain, the advancing speed of Nie Liang's army was greatly reduced. .
Jiang Pengji waited at the back for a while, but couldn't sit still anymore.
Although the messengers will truthfully pass back the important information on the battlefield, it is not as good as seeing it with their own eyes.
"It's been almost a quarter of an hour, and the enemy has no intention of retreating?"
At present, there are not many casualties on both sides. When Nie Liang's army set up a ladder to cover the ramming post and hit the city gate, the casualties will increase dramatically. Because there were so many people at that time, even a blind man could kill two birds with one stone when shooting arrows. When the attacking party climbed the wall by ladders or ropes, the defending party beat people down. According to the height of Zhanjiang Guancheng Gate, it was basically a child who fell.
If we really want to enter this link, the losses of Nie Liang's army will be much greater than they are now.
Jiang Pengji muttered, "It's just a feint, why bother working so hard?"
She wants to be idle now, the salted fish in the live broadcast is saltier than her, and the battle report is not good enough, they want to watch the frontline battle!
Just listening to the battle report feels like scratching an itch. It's okay if you don't listen to it, but it's even more uncomfortable when you listen to it.
[Gym expert]: Hey, why is Nie Liang so serious and hardworking this time, don't you have any AC numbers in your heart, anchor?
If it wasn't for her to anger Nie Liang, how could he be so angry?
[Losing weight depends on persistence]: I now feel like a player who participated in the World Cup but sat on the bench from beginning to end. Watching his teammates gallop on the green field, I can only be idle. Isn't the host a husky? Can you bear it by squatting behind?
Although there are many salted fish complaining that the live broadcast room is too bloody and violent, there are also many salted fish who like this bite.
Jiang Pengji, as a fighting maniac fighting on the front line, is now sitting on the bench, and those salty fish feel bad for her.
The salted fish were fanning the flames, and Jiang Pengji couldn't sit still, so she immediately decided to climb the city wall to join in.
Everyone: "..."
The city wall is full of wars, and the enemy army has set up ladders, trying to climb the city to fight. Qi Guan made the two of them calm down, the enemy set up the ladder without panic, and waited for them to climb two thirds of the way before pushing down the ladder, and the ropes they threw up would be treated in the same way.
However, the same method does not work every time. The enemies swarm like wasps and gather around the city. The enemy archers interfered with the guarding soldiers on the city wall with rockets pierced with black oil, and at the same time provided cover for the soldiers climbing below the city. The cooperation was excellent.
The area of the city wall is limited, and the number of guards is naturally limited.
If these people get up in a hurry and fail to effectively bring down the enemy, the city wall will inevitably fall.
Qi Guanrang and Sun Wen naturally wouldn't make this mistake, Jiang Pengji's soldiers are the most obedient.
They were brainwashed by the political commissars of the military camp for several years after they were put into the military camp.
Even if they are all afraid of death, they will rush forward when the horn sounds, because their bodies have already formed a reflection to the command.
Sun Wen was kind enough to order the soldiers in the watchtower to observe the changes in the enemy's rear line, and at the same time ordered the archers to divide into three waves.
A wave of enemy archers shooting at the front line of the city, retreated half a step after shooting, and let another wave of archers with arrows and bows make up to minimize the vacuum period as much as possible. The third wave is responsible for the enemies trying to climb the walls. In addition, there are soldiers holding red-tasseled guns and pointing at the eyes, cheeks, throats and other parts of the enemy, directly stabbing them down. There seemed to be many soldiers on the city wall, but the fighting rhythm was fast and steady.
Qi Guan made it much more ruthless over there, not only archers and spearmen interfered with climbing the wall, but he also poured boiling water and red-hot charcoal. When a pot of boiling hot water went down, the faces of the soldiers at the top of the ladder were almost scalded, and the soldiers at the bottom were not only hit in the face by high-altitude human throwing objects, but some unlucky ones were also sprayed with hot water and charcoal.
If it wasn't for the lack of time, Qi Guanrang still wanted to embed barbed thorns on the walls of the city. If the enemy dared to climb the wall, his hands and feet would be pierced with blood. However, this proposal was rejected by the lord.
The reason is simple -
[Barbed caltrops don't want iron! 】
In addition to these routine operations, Qi Guanrang also hung iron planks covered with thick iron nails on the city wall. Soldiers only need to loosen the rope to tie the iron and wood planks to the enemy trying to climb the wall. When they pull the rope back, the enemy's battered corpse will be knocked off the wall.
After a wave of temptations, the enemy failed to successfully enter the city.
On Nie Liang's side, he took careful note of the defensive objects used by the enemy on the city wall.
The first wave of attacks did not take much advantage, Nie Jun did not give up, but instead ordered soldiers to push dozens of catapults.
The catapult of this era was not Jiang Pengji's original creation, and it was also used on a large scale during wars, and it could be regarded as a powerful and lethal weapon in wars. The giant catapult vehicle she used to attack Cheng'an County had been improved several times, and its overall performance—whether it was the accuracy of fixed-point projection, projection distance, and strike force—was much higher than the average level of this era.
Of course, as a big country among the five kingdoms, Zhongzhao has a high level of technology in its hands.
Even though the catapults in front of them were not as powerful as the ones prepared by Jiang Pengji, they were not weak.
Thinking of this, Qi Guan Rang, who originally planned to hide his hand, had no choice but to show one of his hole cards.
The size and transportation of the catapult were big problems, so Jiang Pengji asked Zhang Ping and the others to study other types of catapults.
Give up a certain carrying capacity in exchange for a longer throwing distance and a more dexterous lift, further simplifying the operation.
The simplification of operation means that the time from loading and throwing the catapult to shooting is shortened. The enemy can shoot a cannon, and the enemy can throw it three times, and the projection angle can also be adjusted. Who wouldn't hurt each other? The catapults are powerful, but Zhanjiang Pass is a dangerous pass, and the stones used to pile up the city walls are the huge stones used to build the Great Wall. They are huge and dense, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary heavy objects to pose a threat.
Nie Liang's army obviously also considered this point, so they all aimed at the guards on the city wall.
Because of the height of the city wall, the throwing distance cannot be too far, just within the range of the city wall bed crossbow.
"Certificate, order the soldiers to aim at the knuckles of their catapults—"
Qi Guanrang's face was serious, he was already in a bad mood when he saw the enemy set up the catapult, but now he heard a familiar voice, he almost lost his temper.
"My lord! This place is dangerous, please leave immediately!"
Qi Guanrang was well aware of how powerful the catapult was, even if he fought back, the casualties would not be alleviated.
My protagonist climbed up the city wall at this time, and it was almost fatal.
