"Launch!" When the officer in front reminded the soldiers to pay attention to safety, the captain of the siege battalion gave an order, and the soldiers cut the ropes, and the stone bullets were quickly thrown out.

This thing has been tested several times. Even if it can't fly forward, at least it won't fall into the position of the own army.After more than 30 consecutive tests to ensure that there are no problems, Lu Zhi will allow such improvements and put them into the battlefield.

Stone projectiles have a more stable trajectory than ordinary stones, so it is very valuable to spend time polishing stone projectiles.In the end, these stone bullets fell on the city wall or penetrated into the city pool.

This circular structure is much more destructive to city walls than ordinary stones.Perhaps the stone is irregular, so the area in contact with the city wall is irregular, leading to the dispersion of force?

"The trebuchet you improved is very good." Lu Zhi looked at the result and nodded, "Even if you can't defeat Guangzong, I will give credit to the imperial court for the improvement of this trebuchet for you."

"My disciples thank you, Master." Liu Tao quickly thanked him, but he knew very well in his heart that Lu Zhi was also returning favors.The money for bribing Zuo Feng was [-] guan, including the wine. Even he was taken aback by this figure.

His current rank is two thousand shi, but the actual salary he gets is five thousand per month, 34 hu per meter.If the three thousand coins are spent, almost 50 years of his salary will be gone.

Chapter 146 The Yellow Turban Lux

The stone bullets thrown hit the city wall, and the whole wall shook. After all, it was a city made of rammed earth, not even Sanhe soil, so we really can't expect how strong it will be.

Guangzong is not a huge city with a grand pass, the city wall is less than five meters, maybe even soldiers can climb up it by stacking their own ladders.

Of course, this method will only be used unless the brain is pumped.Before he went up, the opponent had already stabbed him with a single shot... With both hands grasping the city wall, there was no way to defend, it was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

The long ladder is crude, at least with both feet on the ladder, and a little free hand for defense or counterattack.

The supply soldiers are still trying to throw sacks towards the moat.The two-meter or three-meter-deep moat began to be gradually filled up after sandbags were thrown into it one by one.

The arrows on the city wall shot down desperately, and at the same time, the archers on the city wall began to be suppressed by the crossbowmen who arrived at the front line.The three city gates launched an attack at the same time. Even if there were 3 thieves, the problem of insufficient restricted supplies would be helpless.

"The weather is getting hotter and hotter..." In the blink of an eye, it took half an hour just to fill in the moat. The soldiers who attacked the city were okay, at least they could persist. The thieves on the city wall were already sweating profusely.

"It's not even noon, why is it so hot?" Another thief also complained.

"The key is that in this hot day, you still have to wear armor to fight. I guess you didn't get killed by the officers and soldiers, but you were already killed by the heat." Another thief complained. At this moment, he was wearing a suit of armor and was already sweating profusely.

"Why are the officers and soldiers not afraid of the heat?" Finally someone asked the key question.

"That's right, why aren't officers and soldiers afraid of the heat?" Soon others realized the problem. After all, they were also fully armed, and the armor was supposed to be hotter than them. Why didn't they respond?

"Don't complain, concentrate on defending the city!" The officer couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only come forward and stop, "If you don't defend the city well, it will really be cool at that time."

These words made the soldiers around them startled, and they actually cooled down for a while, although it was only for a short moment.

But it was not because of fear, but when they were just speaking, a stone bullet flew past them. The officer who was complaining towards them just now had been knocked out. Caused.

The stone bombs continued unabated, fell into the city, and damaged one of the houses. After a while, two people fled out shouting, and then wailed around their house, apparently relatives were still inside.

The few soldiers didn't like it, but they didn't expect that at this moment, arrows shot towards them one after another.

"Bow your head!" Fortunately, they also changed from recruits to veterans, and lowered their heads immediately, barely avoiding these arrows.But even if they avoid it, seeing that the thieves have already filled in a passage in the moat, most of the thieves are confused.

The Jinglan trolley began to be pushed up, along with the ladder trolley and the long ladder.The way forward has been opened, and the regular siege equipment should also be launched.

The first thing to fill in was naturally the position of the city gate, and the rushing vehicle was driven by the soldiers at the first time, and it passed towards the city.Due to the limited movement distance, the style of the battering vehicle was changed to that of a swing arm battering ram.

With the help of four soldiers, pull the suspended ram, and continuously attack the city gate at a fixed location.Of course, this kind of impact is not as powerful as the force of a collision after borrowing a distance, but the situation is limited, and there is no way to expect it.

"Follow me!" Shangguan Yu gave an order, and the crossbowmen boarded the five Jinglan carts one after another.The Jinglan cart is three to four meters high, and the archers who come to the top can almost shoot at the thieves on the city wall.

According to the instructions, Yang She had already arrived at the front line of the battlefield as soon as possible, and boarded the Jinglan cart.Liu Tao gave him an order to find the officers on the city wall to shoot.With the power of the two stone bows and his archery skills, it is not a problem to snipe and kill enemy officers.

With the input of Jinglan carts, the thieves were further suppressed. Unfortunately, due to space constraints, five Jinglan carts could only go up to about [-] crossbowmen.

"Brother, I'll go back as soon as I go!" Seeing that the long ladder had already been put into use, Guan Yu couldn't sit still anymore.He gestured to Liu Tao, and then took the headquarters and the long ladder to the front line.

"Speaking of which, he is also one of your righteous brothers?" Lu Zhi looked at Guan Yu, who had been mentioned by the messenger earlier.

"This man is Jieliang from Hedong. His surname is Guan and his name is Yu, and his name is Yunchang. Yunchang is brave and good at fighting. All the way, all the thieves and generals he faces can't survive him." Of course Liu Tao would not say that Guan Yu was a criminal. After the accident, he fled to Zhuo County.

"He's a great general, let's see where he can go in the future." Lu Zhi nodded. He knew the strength of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but compared to these two, he cared more about Liu Tao and Zhang Fei. It's just Lu Yan.

"Stones, round logs, and gold juice are ready!" Zhang Liang had already arrived at the front line, and only when he actually arrived did he realize that the situation here was very bad.The officers and soldiers kept rolling out siege equipment, the key was the weather, the damn weather!

Let's just say that he is now fully armed and running all the way, but he is already sweating profusely when he comes here, and the inside of the armor is as hot as a steamer.

God knows the officers and soldiers, why did they choose to attack the city in such a ghostly weather?Why, they can persist until now?

"General, the officers and soldiers are attacking so fiercely that it is difficult for us to raise our heads now." The officer on the front line cried, let alone bowing his head now, or even lowering his head, there may be a stone bomb flying over suddenly.

Speaking of which, one of them smashed over, and not far from them, the entire battlement was blown away, and the thieves behind were probably in danger.

"Did the officers and soldiers have this kind of trebuchet before?" Zhang Liang's face turned pale.The officers and soldiers who attacked the city this time were completely different from the officers and soldiers in memory. It was said that the number of siege equipment was too large and the power was too strong.

"No, absolutely not!" The thief next to him cried, defending the city in such an environment is too stressful.

Especially the boiled golden juice itself tasted terrible, not to mention the heat wave, the mentality of the people three meters around collapsed.If you are not careful, the opponent's stone bomb hits it, and the taste will really be memorable for a lifetime...

Officers and soldiers have already started to erect long ladders, and stones, logs, etc. have been thrown down one after another, including gold juice, which has also begun to be splashed.As a result, officers and soldiers suffered real casualties for the first time, and the number began to increase.

After all, there were [-] thieves in the city, and they were continuously replenished. Several people worked together to push down or smash the long ladder. The car, went down with a hammer and smashed it.

Officially, this special group of soldiers abruptly slowed down the progress of the siege.

"Those soldiers are so strange..." Liu Tao watched from a distance, frowning.

Lu Zhi was not surprised, and replied: "That is the strongest army of the Yellow Turbans, called the Yellow Turban Warriors!"

Chapter 147 It's time to open Wushuang

"Yellow Turban Warriors?" This is the first time Liu Tao has heard of this army, it should be said that it is the first time he has heard of this army on the battlefield.

In various novels, there are such warriors who are invulnerable and as strong as an ox, forged by Zhang Jiao using talismans and medicine.Even in many oriental fantasies and fairy tales, the lowest level of labor in the heavens is the yellow scarf warrior.

However, when he joined the army all the way south, he encountered many yellow turban thieves, but he didn't meet this army.I thought that in this world, yellow turban wrestlers do not exist.Unexpectedly, I met here...

"Even among the Yellow Turban Thieves, there are very few of them. There are millions of Yellow Turban Thieves and less than 1000 Yellow Turban Warriors. Now it should be less than [-]. But in order to deal with the more than [-] Yellow Turban Warriors, more than [-] soldiers were killed or injured." Lu Zhi said with emotion.

Compared with ordinary yellow turban thieves, yellow turban wrestlers are the real trouble, a group of powerful, tall, mighty, and tireless monsters, even if they are injured, they can grit their teeth to exhaustion, or have their heads chopped off It's over.

Monsters, this group of yellow scarf fighters, are monsters through and through!

Because of the existence of this group of people, Lu Zhi has never dared to make a general attack. After all, in the case of defending the city, the opponent is too dominant.

"General, I can't fight up!" Not long after, Yuan Shao came back to report, "Our soldiers can't climb the city wall at all! Those yellow scarf fighters are really too difficult to deal with!"

"Leaving aside the bow and crossbow, isn't the trebuchet ineffective?" Lu Zhi replied sternly.

"The trebuchets are okay, and they can still hit a few, but they will be replenished soon. Our arrows have no effect, and the iron chains they wear block most of the arrows..." Yuan Shao Quickly explain.

These yellow turban fighters are all wearing a lot of chains, which are a bit like chain armor.Of course, you can't say that, after all, it's just wrapping the chain to protect the vitals, and it can't be regarded as armor.
