The Era of Generals

Chapter 469   Wonderful Delivery

"Hit, hit me hard!"

After recovering from the shock, Zheng Yuanyun seemed to have not seen the vanguard that broke in at an extremely fast speed. He pointed sharply at the siege towers lined up.

No, of course it wasn't that he didn't see it, but at this moment, Zheng Yuanyun certainly knew which side was the greater threat to his city of Juhe.

Although the vanguard numbered more than a hundred thousand, they were all assault soldiers and did not carry siege equipment in their hands. Even if they were allowed to charge a little further, they would still have archers on their side, rolling stones and trees, etc. Defense equipment.

And the siege catapult, if it is allowed to continue to move forward, the next time the opponents bombard them, it will not be as simple as just smashing on the city wall, but directly on their top of the city. !

The sky of Juhe City does not stop for a moment, when you come and go, it is full of huge stones whizzing back and forth.

However, Zheng Yuanyun was also prepared this time, and he did not aim all the trebuchet targets at the siege tower at once. After all, this kind of fixed-point projection is just a fixed-point projection, and the siege tower will not dodge as flexibly as a person. What they want is to use continuous attacks to not only destroy the opponent's siege tower, but also reserve a part of the trebuchets to deal with the vanguard that is about to rush to the city.

However, what Zheng Yuanyun didn't expect was that when he ordered the loaded catapult troops to fire, there was another roar from the enemy's siege catapult!

"Why so fast?"

Zheng Yuanyun was stunned, but at the same time he was very fortunate that his order was one point faster after all. When the opponent's trebuchet fired again, the trebuchet on his side also roared.

Big deal, it's just a one-for-one exchange!

He gritted his teeth and thought, when he hid in the female wall, he glanced down the city, and then his heart sank.

The opponent's catapults hit very quickly. This was actually a long-awaited preparation. It was originally intended to shoot a double shot. The reason why this goal was achieved was, on the one hand, the preparation of the catapult soldiers on the top of the tower, and on the other hand, It was also in the round of bombing just now that the trebuchet troops were forced to temporarily evade, which delayed a little time.

But more importantly, the opponent's two consecutive shots, this second round of bombing was not aimed at killing, but for... evasion!

In the last volley, countless soldiers under the siege tower gritted their teeth and refused to let the siege tower take half a step back to ensure the accuracy of throwing stones.

But this time, Zheng Yuanyun saw that the soldiers under the siege tower of the other party, who were pulling the rope in front, did not change, while the group of people pushing behind all jumped back one step and left the siege tower instead. The range of the tower.

This led to the fact that after this round of volley, the anti-shock force fed back by the catapult on the top of the tower only controlled the stability through the rope-drawing soldiers in front, and did not let the tower siege fall, but it did not go Stop the retreat of the siege tower.

This led to the fact that after the burning stones from the top of Juhe City reached the farthest attack distance, but because the siege towers all retreated backwards, they only blasted into the empty space.

The edge of a siege tower has not been touched!

At the same time, the stones thrown from the siege tower did not fall on the city wall of Juhe City because of the shock force, but only hit the open space below the city.

"damn it!"

Zheng Yuanyun gritted his teeth and jumped up from behind the parapet.

This round of bombing was not aimed at the city wall, but just a trick by Ouyang Lixing to keep the siege tower.

Can it still be like this?

Zheng Yuanyun was an eye-opener, and just as he was thinking about what to do, the deputy general next to him suddenly exclaimed, "Master Zheng, look!"

Looking in the direction of the lieutenant general's finger, what he was pointing at were the stones that fell on the open space below the city.

This... where is the throwing stone?

Zheng Yuanyun glanced at it, and his eyes widened immediately.

He saw that the hundreds of "objects" that fell on the open space below the city were not stone throws, but huge ones—packages?

It's the right package.

He stared again and found that not all of those things were intact, and they were inevitably damaged during the process of projection and landing, so he was sure that the hundreds of objects that were ejected were made of huge wrapped skins one by one. Wrapped things.

As for what those things are.

From some damaged packages, Zheng Yuanyun saw many things that looked like ladders, and his mind suddenly flashed.

This is the use of trebuchets to transport the siege equipment that the vanguard did not bring in their hands!

Ouyang forced the vanguard to charge. On the one hand, in order to ensure the speed of the charge, and on the other hand, he did not let the soldiers carry any siege equipment.

And this also paralyzed Zheng Yuanyun, making him have a wrong judgment on the destructive power that the vanguard troops could cause, and chose to attack the more destructive siege catapult first.

Taking advantage of the gap between the two sides' bombardment, a group of people in the extremely fast vanguard had already rushed to the city.

Sure enough, this was planned early in the morning. The soldiers rushed over, and instead of charging directly to the city gate, they rushed to the packages scattered in the open space and assembled them extremely quickly.

Ladder!

Most of these packages are disassembled ladders, and there are organic parts between each small section. It seems that these soldiers have practiced many times, and they are very familiar with assembling these ladders. In a short while, hundreds of towering ladders have already taken shape.

"What are you still doing, let the arrows go!"

Zheng Yuanyun yelled fiercely, obviously he was not the only one who was stunned by the opponent's whimsy, most of the defenders on the top of the wall were attracted by the lieutenant general's roar, and looked at Packages under the city.

This time, it was like waking up from a dream, and the arrows rushed down like rain.

At such a short distance, the attack power of the trebuchet has been weakened to the extreme, and it is embarrassing that the defensive equipment such as the rolling stone, Leimu kerosene, etc., which require the enemy to be close to the city wall to exert their greatest power, is a little short of the distance. Fortunately, the attack power of the archer can be used perfectly.

Zheng Yuanyun's mind was running fast, and the siege catapult, which was the most threatening in his mind, became unimportant in a blink of an eye. Instead, the vanguard troops who were about to finish building the ladder turned into the most threatening unit.

If the opponent were to set up hundreds of ladders on the city wall of Ihe, even if only one of the soldiers on one of them climbed to the top of the city, once the opening was opened, the subsequent gaps would be opened one after another.

Zheng Yuanyun will not allow this kind of thing to happen, at least, at this stage, it is not time to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy!

However, what he never thought of was that in those huge packages, besides the short ladder for building the ladder, there was also...
