Anti-sea breaking crossbow!
Chijian's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously squatted down with his head in his hands, looking for a place to hide.
Boom boom boom.
Heavy arrows flew and the mountains shook and the earth shook.
After a while, the smoke and dust dissipated.
Chijian suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He turned around and saw Masato Nei sitting motionless in his original position, his face covered in darkness.
Chi Jian suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"General..."
He looked around and breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, except for Masato Nei, everyone in the cave was looking for a place to hide. Some were so frightened that they even fell to the floor. He was not the most prominent one among them.
"That's unreasonable!" Masato Nei slammed the table.
The fire in his stomach grew louder, and the murderous aura in his eyes was about to flow out.
"As soldiers, you actually..."
"General," Ikejian suddenly came to his senses and went over to pull Masato Nei out of his chair. "It's too dangerous here. You'd better return to the guarding general's house as soon as possible."
Others also reacted, and in fear, they came over to pull or push the general, but they suppressed what Masato Nei wanted to say just now.
"Qing Zhang, let me go. I will stay here to see how powerful the Xingluo people are."
"General," Chi Jian shook his head desperately, "what is your status? People in Yunchui often say that the son of a rich man cannot sit in court."
"The power of the anti-sea breaking crossbow is so powerful. You know how strong the city wall is under our feet. Just now, in the first round of attack by the anti-sea breaking crossbow, eight crossbow arrows were shot deeply into the wall, and they still can't be pulled out. "
He danced with excitement and suppressed Masato Nei's attempts to break free.
"General, although the cave hiding soldiers in front of you is built to be hidden, it is still not as strong as the city below. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If unfortunately you are hit by the enemy, what should you do?"
"The entire Beihai Customs is counting on you, General, to take command."
Others nodded in agreement.
"General, it's enough for us to keep an eye on you here. You can go back to the general's mansion first."
"That's right, the General's Mansion is where the general should stay."
"Yes, if you stay here, the brothers here will feel at ease. But if something happens to the west of the city, the messenger will have to cross the entire North Customs and run to the east of the city. If the load is delayed, Isn’t that a troublesome thing?”
…
Amid various rumors, Masato Nei was forcibly sent out.
When he walked away, Chijian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"How's the situation outside?"
At this moment, there are generals who have already completed the observation waiting.
He stood up quickly.
"Back to the general, Xingluo will attack the middle section of the city wall collectively. The original gap is much larger, and now a total of nineteen crossbow arrows have been shot on the wall. There is already a huge crack from top to bottom, which is wide. Put it in the arm.”
"The crack is as big as an arm, from top to bottom..."
There was a deathly silence in the Tibetan Soldier Cave, and even Chi Jian's brows couldn't help but tremble.
"What are you still doing? Send someone to fix it quickly."
"Yes!" The young general responded but did not move his feet. Instead, he looked at the forward with a troubled expression.
"General," he hesitated, "brothers are not afraid of death, but what can we use to repair it?"
"This..." Chi Jian was speechless for a moment.
It would be fine if it was winter.
In winter, Tamaki County is full of ice and snow, and the weather is so cold that as long as you put mud paddles or even ice cubes into the cracks and then drizzle them with water, they will suddenly become harder than iron.
However, it is summer now, so this trick cannot be used...
Moreover, Beihaiguan has been trapped for so long. Apart from mud oars, straw and wood, there are basically no repair materials in the city.
What's more, it would be impossible to repair such a big crack with only mud oars and wood.
Once the enemy's ramming and hammering vehicles drive to the foot of the city and slam towards the cracks, no matter how thick the mud oars are, it will be useless.
"Use stones, sandbags or wood to block it. Let the brothers do their best first."
Before Chijian finished speaking, the lookout at the cat's eye screamed.
Report!
"General, the enemy's arrow chariots have been dispatched in large numbers."
Chijian took a breath, quickly took a few steps over, and looked out through the peephole.
Sure enough, the backs of large and small fence carts were already filled with densely packed arrow carts, which were slowly moving toward the city wall, driven by countless small soldiers.
The arrival of the arrow chariot means that the damage to the city head will increase dramatically.
As for sea-proof crossbows or large and small heavy crossbows, each one is large and heavy, which is a big trouble in both transportation and storage.
Especially for the sea-proof crossbow, the entire arrow is made of fine iron. Each arrow is extremely expensive and cannot be fired at will like ordinary arrows.
They are mainly used to destroy valuable and solid things, such as arrow towers, battlements, and even command towers.
As for hurting the soldiers among them, it is just incidental and not their main task.
The ordinary arrow cart is the main tool for killing and injuring the city defenders.
"How tall are they?" Ikema yelled, "Quickly calculate!"
"Back to General, the arrow cart outside is about six feet high and one foot wide."
Phew~
Including Chi Jian, everyone in the Tibetan Soldier Cave had dark expressions.
The six-foot-long arrow chariot is already higher than the city head of Beihaiguan.
In this way, the height advantage of the city head has been lost.
Japanese pirate soldiers may even be targeted by soldiers on arrow carts as soon as they show their heads.
By then, it would be a problem not to mention building the city head, but even shooting back with arrows.
The only good thing is that such a large arrow cart moves slowly, making it a good target.
You can still destroy some of them by firing a trebuchet or heavy crossbow.
"Come here! While attacking the fence carts, detach some of the heavy crossbows to attack the arrow carts. Don't let them get close."
"General," a military advisor hurriedly stopped him, "Xingluo's trebuchet is just waiting for our remaining heavy crossbows and trebuchets to be exposed. If we launch it in a hurry now, I guess..."
It is estimated that their consequences will soon be the same as those of the previous remote rock-trebuchet units.
"Clear the account." Chi Jian shouted loudly, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Not on the left, not on the right.
He now finally understood why Masato Nei became so violent.
"General, why don't we use ordinary heavy crossbows and trebuchets to attack them before their fence carriages and arrow carriages get closer?"
Such heavy crossbows and trebuchets are relatively small in size and can quickly change positions after being launched, which can effectively prevent the enemy from counterattacking.
The only regret is that the attack range and power of these weapons are not very large.
"This..." Chi Jian hesitated.
"No." After a while, he suddenly gritted his teeth, "Gorros hasn't arrived yet, we need to delay, and we must not let the enemy's fence and arrow cars get too close."
Otherwise, once the soldiers successfully repair the ground below the city, the city boarding vehicles, crash vehicles, hammer vehicles, etc. will come with a bang, and the city will be undefendable.
"Come here, launch the long-range trebuchet and crossbow to attack this general!"
"After the fight, the members of the launch team immediately evacuated ten feet away."
As for the results after launching these weapons...
Chi Jian chuckled bitterly.
These weapons have been kept alive, so there is no need to worry about damage.
However, if the enemy successfully approaches and enters the city, their final result will be the same, either destroyed or captured.
If we activate it now, we can at least achieve some success...
