Rao was a tentative attack, and the soldiers and horses under Nie Liang's tent were not easy persimmons, and they actually caused a certain amount of pressure on Zhanjiang Pass.
However, Qi Guanrang had already considered this for a long time, and made full use of the terrain of Zhanjiang Pass. While commanding the city wall, he ordered the archers and the soldiers manipulating the crossbow to focus on attacking the areas where the enemy's defense was weak. With the terrain, the advance speed of Nie Liang's army was greatly reduced. .
Jiang Pengji waited in the back for a while, and couldn't sit still.
Although the messenger will truthfully pass back the important information on the battlefield, it is not as good as seeing it with his own eyes.
"It's been almost a quarter of an hour, and the enemy has no intention of retreating yet?"
At present, there are not many casualties on both sides, and the casualties will increase sharply when Nie Liang's army sets up the ladder to cover the gate and hit the gate. Because of the dense crowd at that time, the blind archery could kill two birds with one stone. When the siege side climbs the wall through the ladder or rope, the defender beats the person down. According to the height of the gate of Zhanjiang, it is basically a child who falls.
If you really want to enter this stage, the losses of Nie Liang's army are much greater than they are now.
Jiang Pengji muttered, "It's just a feint, why work so hard?"
She wants to be idle now, the salted fish in the live broadcast room is saltier than her, and the battle report is not good enough, they want to watch the battle on the front line!
Just listening to the battle report, it feels like scratching your boots. It's better if you don't listen, but it's even more uncomfortable when you hear it.
[Gym Expert]: Sigh, why is Nie Liang working so hard this time? Don't you have any AC counts in your heart
If she didn't get angry with Nie Liang, how could people be so angry
[Losing weight depends on persistence]: Now I feel like a player who participated in the World Cup but sat on the bench from beginning to end. Watching my teammates galloping on the green field, I can only be idle and moldy. Isn't the anchor a husky? Can you stand in the back
Although many salted fish complain that the live broadcast room is too bloody and violent, there are also many salted fish who like this mouthful.
Jiang Pengji, as a fighting maniac on the front line of struggle, is now sitting on the bench, and those salted fish are uncomfortable for her.
The salted fish fanned the flames, and Jiang Pengji was a character who couldn't sit still, so she decided to climb up the city wall to get a foot.
Everyone: "… "
The beacon fires on the city wall were raging, and the enemy army had already set up a cloud ladder to try to climb the city to fight. Guan Qi made the two of them calm down. The enemy didn't panic when they set up the ladder. When they climbed two-thirds of the way and then pushed the ladder down, the ropes they threw up were treated the same.
However, the same method did not work every time. The enemies swarmed like wasps and gathered under the city. The enemy archers interfered with the guard soldiers on the city wall with rockets pierced with black oil, and at the same time provided cover for the soldiers climbing under 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 are in a hurry and fail to effectively get the enemy down, it is inevitable that the city wall will fall.
Qi Guanrang and Sun Wen naturally wouldn't make this mistake, and the soldiers under Jiang Pengji's account were the most obedient.
They have been in the barracks for a few years before being brainwashed by the political commissars of the barracks for several years.
Even if they are afraid of death, but when the horn sounds, they will rush forward, because the body has already formed a reflex to the command.
Sun Wen's side was kind, ordering the watchtower soldiers to observe the changes in the enemy's rear defense line, while ordering the archers to divide into three waves.
One wave of enemy archers shooting at the front line of the city, took half a step back after shooting, and let another wave of archers with arrows and bows make up to reduce the vacuum period as much as possible. The third wave is responsible for the enemy trying to climb the wall. In addition, there were soldiers holding red tassel spears at the eyes, cheeks, throats and other parts of the enemy, and stabbed them directly. There are many soldiers on the city wall, but the rhythm of the battle is fast and steady.
Qi Guanrang was much more ruthless over there. Not only were there archers and spearmen interfering with climbing the wall, but he also poured boiling water and charcoal that burned red. When a pot of scalding hot water was poured in, the face of the soldier at the top of the ladder was basically scalded. The soldier below would not only be smashed in the face by a high-altitude human body parabola, but also splashed with hot water and charcoal by the unlucky ones. If it weren't for the lack of time, Qi Guanrang would still want to embed iron caltrops on the city walls. The enemy dared to climb the wall, and his hands and feet would be stabbed with blood. However, this proposal was rejected by his own master.
The reason is simple-
[Iron caltrops don't need 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 plank to the enemy trying to climb the wall. When they pull the rope back, the enemy's riddled corpse will be knocked off the wall.
After a wave of testing, the enemy failed to successfully land on the city.
On Nie Liang's side, he carefully wrote down 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 ordered the soldiers to push dozens of rock dump trucks.
The rock-throwing car of this era was not originally created by Jiang Pengji, and was also used on a large scale during wars. The giant rock-throwing cart she used to attack Cheng'an County has been improved several times, and its overall performance—whether it is the accuracy of fixed-point projection, the projection distance, and the striking power—is much higher than the average level of this era.
Of course, as a big country among the Five Kingdoms, Zhongzhao's technical level in the palm of his hand is not low.
Even if the power of these rock-throwing vehicles in front of them is not as powerful as those prepared by Jiang Pengji, they are not weak.
Thinking of this, Qi Guan Rang, who had originally planned to hide his hand, had to reveal one of his hole cards.
The volume and transportation of rock dump trucks are a big problem, so Jiang Pengji asked Zhang Ping and others to study other types of rock dump trucks.
Giving up a certain carrying capacity in exchange for a longer throwing distance and a more dexterous mention further simplifies the operation.
The simplified operation means that the time from loading and throwing the projectile to launching is shortened. The enemy can fire one cannon, and one can throw three times, and the projection angle can also be adjusted. Who wouldn't hurt each other? The power of the riprap is great, but Zhanjiang Pass is a dangerous pass, and the stones used to build the city wall are the boulders 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, so they were all aiming at the defenders on the city wall.
Because of the height of the city wall, the projectile 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 rock-throwing cart—"
Guan Qi's face was solemn, and when he saw the enemy set up a rock-throwing car, he was in a bad mood. At this time, he heard a familiar voice and almost got angry.
"Master! It's dangerous here, please leave immediately!"
Qi Guanrang was well aware of how powerful the rock-throwing cart was, and even if his own side retaliated, the casualties would not be mitigated.
His own lord climbed the city wall at this time, and he was dying.
