Chapter 16 Extra Large Crash Car
Nearly two hours had passed without realizing it, and the city walls had been built about half.
The soldiers guarding the city had already noticed the movements in the city, but except for the people nearby who knew the reason, everyone else looked puzzled.
After so long defending the city, the Jin soldiers on the city had long lost their initial fear.
After all, although the Qin soldiers were large, the effect of siege was not much different from the previous few times.
It won't take long before the Qin army will retreat again.
This is what the vast majority of Jin soldiers think at this moment.
Feng Sheng's heart, which had been held since the Qin army siege, was slightly relieved at this time.
The team he led was focused on defending against the collapse of the northwest corner. After the battle on the eve of the last night, Zhu Xu had great trust in them, so he handed over this most important task to them.
Of course, this is also related to the dangers that only their team knows about this period. After all, the fewer Jin soldiers know this news, the more beneficial it is to defend the city.
Correspondingly, there are also the most defensive equipment here, including three rolling wood, four stone hands, and sufficient bows and arrows.
However, two hours passed, and there were very few Qin troops coming here to attack the city.
They seemed to have put most of the attacking troops on the city walls to the east.
Previously, the cities guarding equipment on the east and west sides were basically the same, but because the war in the east was tight, the rolling wood and stones on the west had to be transported a few times.
Although Zhu Xu had always been thinking about the northwest corner, from the moment, the east side was indeed more dangerous, so he did not order to stop him when his troops lowered the transport of rolling wood and troops.
The Qin army under the city still attacked wildly in the east, all of which were in a desperate situation, but even so, there was still no tendency to break the city.
"Do you draw the tiger away from the mountain?"
Zhu Xu thought in his mind that although this was just the two ends of a city wall, it was very convenient for the soldiers and stones to move back and forth.
However, the most effective rolling wood for defending the city is relatively difficult to handle. Not only is it difficult to unload, but it is even more dangerous when installing. If you are not careful, those thorns will pierce your own people.
In the mildest, disability will occur, and in the worst case you die.
There was finally movement on the Han River.
A giant ship that was several times larger than other warships slowly sailed.
It is about thirty feet long and nearly ten feet wide, which is no less than a tower ship.
Zhu Xu couldn't help but stand up, wanting to see what happened. None of the original warships in the Qin army were more familiar with than him. After all, these warships once belonged to him, but they fell into the hands of the Qin army after the fall of the outer city of Xiangyang.
This giant ship does not belong to it, and Zhu Xu himself has never seen it.
When did the Qin army build such a large warship?
Zhu Xu was extremely puzzled. None of the previous information about the Qin army was about this ship.
The most important thing is, what exactly is installed in this giant ship? It must be driven over at this time.
The Qin army did not let Zhu Xu think for long. The giant ship arrived at the south bank of the Han River in a moment, with long boards standing between the bow and the shore.
A giant that was more than five feet long was pushed out.
On the top are two long wooden shields similar to the roof structure, and in the middle are huge wooden stakes hanging by ropes. The heads of the piles have been sharpened and are inlaid with dark iron sheets. There are seven or eight handles on both sides of the wooden stakes, and many wheels are arranged parallel to the bottom. With the joint efforts of the Qin army, they were easily pushed off the ship and arrived on the shore.
"Crash the car!"
"Crash the car!"
Many older Jin soldiers had recognized this object on the city wall.
It's just that such a huge crash car has never seen it.
One by one, they were shocked and couldn't stop. Even worse, several people actually forgot to defend, causing three or two Qin soldiers to take the opportunity to jump into the city.
After a fierce battle, these Qin soldiers were killed.
Although Zhu Xu was also shocked, he was far from ordinary soldiers, who had experienced many battles. He immediately commanded the soldiers beside him and asked him to send them to prepare braziers, boiling water, etc. to the northwest corner.
His guess just now was not false. Judging from the location of the giant ship and the collision car, it was obviously aimed at the collapsed position of the northwest corner.
At this time, most of the defenses on the city wall are concentrated on the east side of the city wall, so this plan to "tug the tiger away from the mountain" can be said to be determined.
However, Zhu Xu's guess was only half correct. He never expected that the Qin army would create such a huge thing in less than two days.
Under Zhu Xu's instructions, the Jin soldiers moved quickly and brought braziers to the position where Feng Sheng was guarding.
The brazier has not been lit yet, and in addition to some firewood, it is more of black and viscous grease.
Feng Sheng stood in front of the stack of arrows with a torch in hand. For nearly three hours, their team was the most relaxed.
Three rolling trees under the wooden boards, the Qin army did not build a ladder, nor did they build a fish beam road.
When other Jin soldiers in the east were in crisis, he just stood still, as if he had not seen it, which also suffered a lot of eyebrow and contempt.
Not many people knew that he was ordered by the General of the Central Army to stick to this place and could not leave him.
And at this time, it should be time for them to start working hard.
The giant collision car directly opposite seemed to be ready. Nearly twenty Qin soldiers entered the car, pushing the car with one hand and holding the wooden stake with the other, and were heading forward.
But the other Qin soldiers around were not idle either. They threw down their swords and pulled up weeds on the shore.
The Jin soldiers on the city wall did not puzzle how long it took, and the Qin soldiers spread these weeds on the roof of the crash car, full of them, and there was no gap.
Feng Sheng held the torch and shivered slightly, aquatic plants, sludge, river water...
The grease in the brazier is extremely flammable, but after encountering these, the car crash may not burn.
However, there was no time for him to think about other ways. Qin Bing pushed the giant collision car and arrived at the city, and stood at the collapsed place. Then he pushed the wooden stake handle with both hands, shouted horns, and crashed into the city wall.
For a moment, the rolling wood, the fire brazier and the stones were all put together.
The collision car was extremely strong. The effect of this rolling wood hitting a person is obvious, but it has no reaction when it hits the car. What is even more misguided is that it pierces into the top of the wood, and it is difficult to pull it back.
The onset of oil sprinkled on the sludge and water plants. It was not burned for long before it was extinguished from then on and there was no response.
The only thing that has the function is the rocks that float back and forth.
Since there was not much protection on both sides of the Qin soldiers, the stones swept down from the left and right sides and could easily hit the Qin soldiers.
There was even a Qin soldier who was too slapped his back and was hit directly on the forehead by the stone, and his brain burst on the spot.
However, before the soldiers on the wall cheered, Qin Bing pulled out his short blade. Before the stone was pulled up, he seized the rope on the stone and cut it off with one knife.
Then he continued to push up the wooden stake and hit the city wall.
