Chapter 640 Wall Landing Battle
As for the tactics of the siege tower, Zhou Xu had already roughly explained it to Shi Lei yesterday.
Now facing the incoming siege tower, Shi Lei, who knew what he was doing, naturally would not lose his position.
Directly move the spearmen to the top of the wall in advance, and have them follow the location of the siege tower. Just wait for the top tower door to open and the siege soldiers inside to rush out, and immediately use crystal iron to fight Spear calls up!
The space inside the siege tower was limited, which also restricted the movement of the soldiers inside in disguise. As soon as the sword and shield soldiers hiding inside rushed out, they were immediately hit head-on by the crystal iron spear.
Although they consciously raised their one-handed shields for defense during this period, they were unable to withstand the dense concentration of crystal iron war spears that were thrust out simultaneously. The inability to achieve a tight defense was destined to give them an opportunity to take advantage!
Looking past the one-handed shields covered with iron sheets, the mahjong mat-like wooden armor worn by ordinary soldiers could not offer any resistance to the crystal iron war spears. The sharp spearheads penetrated directly into their flesh and blood. , even penetrated their bodies with just one breath!
At that moment, severe pain spread all over their bodies, and their faces turned purple in an instant. However, they did not fall down.
In the absence of a direct hit to the fatal vital point, even if the body is penetrated by a sharp weapon, it will not die immediately.
The soldiers who dare to rush to the front are all soldiers with death aspirations. They need to bear more fatal risks, and most of them will not be able to return alive.
Such a soldier will never stop just because a weapon penetrates his body before he dies completely!
“Come in!!!”
With the roar, the soldier had no time to do anything else. He grabbed the gun that penetrated his abdomen as quickly as possible. The crystal iron war spear, while restricting the opponent's subsequent movements, forced it forward regardless of its own injuries.
When other soldiers in the front row who were attacked saw this, they also followed suit, showing their bravery without fear of life and death!
Unlike yesterday, the power of the three-bow bed crossbow was completely unreasonable in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, and it was a force that they simply could not compete with.
In front of this force, they can only let it be slaughtered, which is the biggest reason why they fall into fear.
For many soldiers, death is not terrible. What is terrible is that your death is worthless.
Although this crystal iron war spear is sharp, they still have room for confrontation. This also allows them to rise up and resist at this time, showing their bravery and fearlessness of death!
The situation in front of them was undoubtedly beyond their expectations. At the critical moment, they saw a huge boulder roaring towards them. With a heavy blow, all the enemy soldiers crowded on the narrow bridge were thrown away from the wall. , this height, they will definitely die if they fall.
Needless to say, it was Zhou Xu who took action.
With a 'flying stone attack', he interrupted the opponent's attack on a siege tower, but this did not change the entire situation.
You know, there are eight siege towers pushed up from the opposite side, and similar things are happening on every siege tower.
After all, there is only one person in Zhou Xu, so how can he stop them all at the same time?
In an instant, many enemy sword and shield soldiers seized this opportunity and rushed directly to the wall, trying to open up the situation for their own siege troops.
Faced with this situation, Zhou Xugang wanted to say something, but he never thought that Shi Lei's angry voice sounded on the wall before him!
"Don't panic! The spear formation is useful to them! Keep the formation and act according to the original plan! The sword and shield soldiers on both sides should pay attention to intercept the enemies rushing out!"
That's right, just like what Shi Lei said, There is nothing wrong with the deployment they made to target the siege tower.
The reason why this happened was because they had errors in their assessment of the enemy's bravery and combat power.
It has to be said that the other party is able to annex many surrounding countries and proclaim himself the First Emperor. In terms of military strength, it does have two brushes.
These infantry were not as easy to deal with as they had initially expected.
Faced with this situation, Zhou Xu couldn't wait any longer. With his 'Flying Rock Attack', he transformed into a humanoid cannon and started walking on the wall. As long as the spearmen can block the opposite side, his 'flying stone attack' can directly knock those soldiers off the wall.
One shot is not enough, then two!
Today, he is no longer what he used to be. The power of the mantra in his body is quite abundant, and he can do whatever he wants.
As long as this wave can be withstood, even if the soldiers under the city wall climb up one after another, it will be difficult for them to pose an effective threat.
It is no exaggeration to say that the siege battle in front of us has now reached a crucial node.
However, during this process, Zhou Xu's face changed slightly when he noticed the situation outside the city.
【Ladder? ! 】
At this moment, on the battlefield outside the city, a large number of enemy soldiers were rushing towards their city wall carrying ladders.
In terms of level, the ladder can be said to be a simplified version of the siege tower.
But this does not mean that with the siege tower, the ladder can be completely eliminated, for example now.
What are the advantages of ladders? It is cheap, not difficult, and can be mass-produced on a large scale in a short time!
The eight siege towers opposite directly attracted a large number of defenders on the wall to deal with them. Under this premise, if those ladders were put up in rows...
Thought Here, Zhou Xu only felt a numb scalp.
However, the opponent will not stop attacking because of his increased pressure. On the contrary, they will only further strengthen their offensive!
Yan Sheng frequently provoked wars in the early days, attacking and annexing neighboring countries. This move allowed his soldiers to accumulate siege experience that far exceeded that of the soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty.
Now the ladders with barbs were hung up on the wall of Huangsha City one after another, and then they showed a climbing speed on the ladder that could be said to be as fast as flying.
As an important part of the military force in Huangsha City, the five hundred troops led by Bai Tu have undoubtedly joined the defensive battle on the wall.
Looking at the enemy soldiers walking swiftly on the ladder, some bad memories suddenly came to Bai Tu's mind, and he shouted loudly...
"Quick! Destroy. Throw down those ladders and throw them down with rocks! Don’t let them climb up the wall easily!”
The cities they defended the country fell one after another under the enemy's offensive.
Now he will never allow something like that to happen again!
With this thought in mind, Bai Tu pulled out the sword from his waist and joined the battle on the wall!
“The time has come to avenge our brothers who died in battle. Brothers, follow me to kill the enemy!!”
“Kill! Kill! Kill!!”
