Chapter 1149
Everything is ready to stop, and now I will wait until the moment when the battle horn is blowing. The Duoduans have already set their sights on the east side, and the two corpses of the Puer have been inserted into the southwest, east, south and west gates of Yunzhong Mansion, everything is available, but the north gate is only allowed to open, which means that the battle will only end with a complete failure of one side, without any other ending.
Chu Taifeng was quietly waiting for the arrival of that moment. This was a very wonderful feeling. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers were waiting for his order. Countless lives would disappear after this moment, and the entire battlefield became so quiet at this moment.
Finally, he glanced at the soldiers standing behind him neatly. Chu Taifeng could even feel the fanaticism in his eyes after hearing his order. As long as he could rush into the city, everything would belong to you! This temptation is even more direct than any encouragement and excitement. As long as you grab it, it belongs to you. This intuition to discover the animal nature of humans will attract countless scoldings every time. History has proved this point. As long as you have the first time, this army will become more fierce, but also more barbaric and rude in the future. However, Chu Taifeng no longer cares about so many things now. Only by winning this battle completely can you talk about anything else. If you can't take the Yunzhong, everything is empty talk.
As Chu Taifeng's raised right hand suddenly waved, like a whip whipping everyone at the same time, the flag in the hands of the flag officer and the drum sound behind the square formation were almost waving and beating at the same time. If you can look down from the air at this time, you can see such a thrilling scene. A semi-arc circle centered on Yunzhongfu City began to move at the same time, and the black pressure slowly advanced towards the center. The soldiers as dense as ants squeezed the radius tightly within a few kilometers without any air strikes, and slowly moved towards a target with neat steps.
The first thing to advance is still the giant catapult carts and squadrilaterals. They are the main force in the first wave of attacks. Only after fully suppressing the power of long-range attack weapons on the enemy's walls can we create a good environment and conditions for the squad soldiers behind them. The guardians set up a huge blocking net in front of the catapult carts and squadrilaterals to prevent the enemy's highly advantageous catapults to damage their own equipment. Only after entering the range of their catapult carts and squadrilaterals, this kind of
Only when the blocking net is put down. Under the pressure of the continuous improvement of catapults and crossbows in Western Xinjiang, the Northern Army had to begin to accept the impact of these new weapons and demanded that their logistics departments re-produce more powerful catapults and crossbows. Of course, their equipment speed is far from being compared with the Western Xinjiang, which has been fully deployed, but the First Legion is still the priority equipment target. Even so, the First Legion still cannot meet the needs without restrictions like the legions of the Western Legion.
The mobile arrow tower also slowly followed behind the catapult cart and the crossbow cart. Dozens of moving arrow towers looked like countless moving armored fortresses. Every step closer to the city wall will bring greater psychological pressure to the soldiers in the defense. The holes above and in the middle of the arrow tower are like bloody mouths that are chosen to devour people. It is the shooting hole of the crossbow. Dozens of soldiers squeezed in it and loaded and unloaded crossbow arrows for the crossbow to improve the shooting efficiency of the crossbow.
Relying on a huge city rushing car, the soldiers holding guns and shields had already been full of expectations and desires. While impatiently beating shields and weapons, they stared at the front, fearing that they would miss the orders from their superiors and fall behind. Since the commander of the Legion issued an order to enter the city, it was as if he had suddenly stirred up a handful of wine that had been fermented for a long time, and immediately brewed infinite passion. The soldiers of the First Legion had never enjoyed such treatment. Whether fighting against the Liberians in the north or fighting with the Taiping Cult's rebellion, no matter how great the victory was, at most it would be some rewards that were not painful.
If you really have any extraordinary behavior, you have to be worried for several days, afraid that the military judge will come to you. This time, all the taboos will be cancelled and everything will belong to the winner. What a joyful and unrestrained order! The soldiers who heard this order couldn't help but shout long live, thinking that everything they had seized would belong to themselves, money, wealth, everything, what else in this world is more touching than this?! At that moment, the morale and passion of the soldiers were suddenly raised to the peak, and even Huo Yuanqing had to admit that this beastly nature, which came from the hearts of mankind, was excavated countless times stronger than any reward and motivational means.
The strong and mighty Chongcheng car was transported from the rear to the front line. The outside was covered with fireproof paint and wrapped in raw cowhide in key parts. This Chongcheng car wheel also uses the technology of outsourcing rubber for wooden wheels. This technology can not only reduce the damage of wooden wheels, but also reduce the shock momentum of the vehicle. However, this rubber empire cannot be produced in China, and only Western Xinjiang can produce it. Xijiang is strict in the West. In order to enable Chongcheng car to achieve the best effect, the Northern Army had to purchase a large number of Western Xinjiang-made civilian vehicles, and remove rubber nails from these vehicles and make it on Chongcheng car wheels.
The city rushing car is the cornerstone of the soldiers' siege. In order to ensure one-time success, Huo Yuanqing had to push more than half of the city rushing car to the front line. Before this, Huo Yuanqing even personally inspected each city rushing car to ensure that the city rushing car could fully play its role. Behind each city rushing car is half a brigade of soldiers. Dozens of city rushing cars are enough to make a division of soldiers rush to the top of the city at the same time. Huo Yuanqing doesn't believe that under this situation, who can withstand these brave soldiers, even the Western Frontier Army cannot!
Chu Taifeng, dressed in military uniform, looked at the front with a motionless expression. Under the thick iron helmet, a pair of eagle eyes gathered like a gathering. The staff officers and commanders gathered next to him with nervous expressions, waiting for the arrival of that moment. Like a giant hammer hitting everyone's hearts, the drum beats from the wall of Yunzhongfu City finally sounded. Almost in an instant, a dark cloud immediately appeared above the wall in front of him, and the dark clouds formed by countless black dots rose to the highest point in a very short time and then fell downwards.
Zhou Gui felt the approaching death almost instantly. Wang Erhu next to him didn't even have time to make a sound and was smashed into meat sauce by the falling rock. Bloody slurry splashed on his face, and a scream passed through his ears and almost shook his eardrums. Li Dacai's painful moan came from behind. My God! Zhou Gui was about to glare all his eyes out, and Li Dacai's right arm was cut off by the crossbow arrow that flew past, and blood like a spring gushed out. Due to the severe pain, Li Dacai's feet almost kicked off his boots, and he could only curl up on the ground helplessly and twitched.
The blocking net can only be used to block the catapult car. This is his responsibility, but Zhou Gui really wanted to hide his body behind the blocking net, but the strict eyes of the supervisor behind the formation were like a bayonet, which forced Zhou Gui to straighten his chest and lift the blocking net higher. There were still fifty meters, twenty meters, ten meters, five meters, and five meters. Finally, it arrived. Zhou Gui was almost exhausted. In just a few dozen meters, Zhou Gui was like a separation of life and death. Wang Erhu was dead, and Li Dacai probably couldn't save him. There was also Xie Xiaosan, oh, his leg was smashed by a huge rock. I don't know if there was hope. Liu Lu was also finished. How could his luck be so unlucky? Even the flying arrows shot out aimlessly into his throat. Don't he know how to lower his head and arched his body?
This is just one scene in countless scenes. In the extremely tragic opening remarks, both sides ushered in their first small climax.
Kamapov also did not expect that the offensive of the Northern Army would be so wild and fierce. The protection measures of the Northern Army were prepared to make Kamapov feel huge pressure. His advanced strikes with high advantages did not seem to have the expected results. According to his own vision, only less than ten of the Northern Army's more than 80 catapults and crossbows lost their combat effectiveness, which was at least half the difference from Kamapov's prediction before the war. It should be said that the protective block used by the enemy had a good effect, and his side lacked the necessary means of response. Kamapov silently recorded this in his heart.
It is obvious that the Northern Army also imitated Xijiang to develop a multi-armed joint-engine crossbow truck. This kind of crossbow truck is much more efficient than the original ordinary crossbow truck. Each crossbow truck is equipped with multiple crossbow spring devices, which can be fired at the same time, greatly improving the utilization rate of crossbow trucks. The enemy's mobile arrow tower has obviously improved by imitating Xijiang. Not only has the height been increased, they also creatively moved the crossbow to the arrow tower, so that the space in the arrow tower can be effectively utilized, making the power of the arrow tower greatly enhanced. However, in this way, the danger of the arrow tower is also doubled. Once attacked, the possibility of escaping in the arrow tower covered with crossbow brackets is much smaller.
