Holy Monday sixth update
Bai Yuan gave the order, and the servants of the Bai family standing next to the trebuchets and giant catapults took the lead in taking action. They reached out to grab the black cloth covering the giant catapults and trebuchets, and suddenly lifted it, and ten trebuchets were released. All ten giant ballistae were revealed.
The trebuchet is placed behind the fort wall. The view of the rebel troops outside is blocked by the fort wall and cannot be seen, so that's fine. However, the giant ballistae is set up on the fort wall or on the turret, and the rebel army outside the city cannot see it. I was shocked when I saw it.
The double-winged tiger couldn't help being stunned: "Huh?"
The next moment, Bai Yuan shouted loudly: "Trebuchet, launch."
The two blacksmiths who were already standing next to the trebuchet with big hammers swung their sledgehammers at the same time, hitting the machine bracket with a "crash" sound. The plastic trebuchet raised its giant arm, and with a roar, two trebuchets hit the machine. The big stone flew over the city wall and smashed outward.
The thieves under the Double-winged Tiger had just started to charge. Two huge stones flew into the air. One of them hit the thieves' formation with a "bang", smashing the two of them into meat patties on the spot, and the other stone hit them. It tilted and fell into the open space two to three feet next to it. It kept rolling and carried a large amount of it with it.
Pieces of dust.
Double-Winged Tiger: "Fuck!"
Twin-winged Tiger’s subordinates: “Ahhhhh!”
Just two times, I don’t know how many people were so scared that they peed their pants.
The two-winged tiger was confused and didn't know what order to give. He was not a commander with command experience. In all his life, he only knew one move: "charge me". After this order was issued, he just resigned himself to fate.
When the commander was confused, his subordinates naturally started to act randomly.
Just as Cheng Xu had expected from the beginning, the trebuchet was all about morale. Once there was a problem with morale, the rebel army would be split into two parts. One part wanted to retreat and started to stop, but the other part I am still rushing forward.
Bai Yuan shouted: "Giant ballista, launch!"
The two blacksmiths standing next to the giant ballista also swung their sledgehammers and hit the machine bracket with a "bump" sound twice. The tight little rubber band snapped out and the plastic arrows were ejected. The arrows were covered with The sharp bamboo tube looks very happy.
The accuracy of this thing is much higher than that of a trebuchet. A group of stupid thieves were charging. Suddenly, two giant arrows flew towards them. One of them hit one of the stupid thieves in the chest. With a pop, there was no suspense. The hole penetrated him, causing him to fly back a meter or two, and he fell to the ground, dying beyond hope.
Another arrow hit the front of a fool's face. This was a terrible moment. With a muffled sound, the man's front face was torn to pieces in the middle. The huge arrow actually blew off a piece of the back of his head. The red and white ones burst together, making the thief next to him scream.
However, this was not over yet. The blacksmith from Baijiabao had already changed his position and smashed down the mechanisms of two more trebuchets and giant ballistae. In the second round, two huge rocks and two giant arrows flew out again. Out...
Next to the giant ballistae and trebuchets that had been launched before, a large group of Baijiabao's strong women appeared, quickly loading them with new ammunition. Ten strong women worked together to pull down the giant arm of the trebuchet with a rope and put new stones in the spoon. On the other side, several strong women picked up the giant crossbow arrow together, stuck it on the slide rail of the giant crossbow cart, and then pulled it back hard, tightening like a rubber band, and stuck it on the machine frame.
Cheng Xu looked left and right, and thought to himself: These strong women have also been trained. Bai Yuan has made this Baijiabao militia so impressive. It's strange, why are these people so willing to obey his orders? How many benefits did he promise these people to make them obedient?
Cheng Xu's own soldiers had never been so obedient. They were lazy today and fishy tomorrow. They refused to participate in training properly. When scolded, they would show off and say they didn't have enough food and military pay, so they were too hungry to practice.
He was often so angry at these guys, but it was true that the military was not paid enough. Sometimes he had to put the fire back in his stomach. Anyone who was a general knew that if you were not paid enough, you still had to train your soldiers to death. , the final result can only be mutiny.
He thought about some things in his mind. When he looked up, he found that the first round of ten trebuchets and ten giant ballistas had all been launched. It was now "loading" time, and the people outside the city were rushing towards them. The two-winged tiger army retreated.
Although the stupid thieves were stupid enough, after being shot by ten giant ballistae, no matter how stupid they were, they had to wake up. When they turned around and looked behind them, more than half of them were frightened by the trebuchets. Not only did they not rush forward, Instead, he was retreating.
The stupid thief stopped being stupid. He let out a strange cry and began to retreat. Within a few minutes, all the thieves ran back to the double-winged tiger, too scared to move forward any further.
The first round of the bandits' offensive came to an end.
Two messengers ran out of the main formation that did not stick to the mud, and got into the formation of the double-winged tiger and the purple gold dragon. After a while, the double-winged tiger and the purple golden dragon ran towards the main formation that did not stick to the mud, and the three thieves chiefs They gathered together and pointed at Baijiabao, probably discussing what to do next.
Bai Yuan stood on the turret and shook off the fan of "Junzi": "Hey, the Xianjia weapons given by Tianzun are very powerful. They neutralized the first round of the rebel army's attack in the blink of an eye."
Cheng Xu walked up from the side: "Twenty siege weapons are really scary. Even the officers and soldiers will be stunned when they encounter these things. It is natural for the rebels to be scared away, but they are not fools. Soon You will think of ways to spread out and rush over."
Bai Yuan nodded. Although the siege weapons were powerful, their accuracy was poor. The rebels would soon think of using a scattered approach to attack, and they would inevitably be rushed under the fort wall.
"If you want to disperse, then disperse." Bai Yuan said: "Dispersion means weakness, and we may not be able to resist it."
There was no need for him to say this. Cheng Xu knew much better than him.
He weighed the pros and cons and grinned: "Ask your servants to give up the first line of the fort wall, and my soldiers will come to support it. Damn it, I am patrolling the ninth rank, and I am leading soldiers from the Ming Dynasty. You can't Let you laymen look down upon me.”
Hearing his words, Bai Yuan was overjoyed: This coward's confidence has increased, and he finally ran away without all his thoughts in his mind. Very good, as long as the officers and soldiers are willing to work hard, it will be much easier to handle. "
Cheng Xu waved his hand, and more than a hundred regular officers and soldiers pushed against the fort wall. The Bai family members all retreated to the second line, and the militia retreated to the third line...
As soon as the defense change was completed inside the fort, the bandits outside the fort began to make movements.
The three thieves chiefs had obviously finished their discussion, and the Double-Winged Tiger and the Purple Gold Dragon returned to their formations. Then their subordinates shouted loudly at the same time, with a bang, like ants crawling out of a flooded ant nest. They looked like they were spread out in all directions, with more than half a foot between them.
"Charge!" A thousand men from the Double-Winged Tiger and Purple Gold Dragon units came towards Baijiabao.
