Jiuchao got up from the ground and calmed himself down: "Don't panic!"
"Remove the city wall in an orderly manner! Treat the injured!"
The guards on the side nervously raised their shields over Jiuchao's head, but Jichuo did not refuse - although they all knew that this thin shield was of no use in defending against catapults.
Jiuchao had the courage to walk to a stone bullet and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
I saw that the stone bullet was completely round and even reflected the luster!
Ji Chuo calmed down and said with a forced smile: "The Chu people have two hundred catapults. How many stone bullets do they consume every day?"
"How much manpower does it take to make a stone bullet with such a regular shape? How much time does it take?"
"Don't worry, gentlemen, Chu people don't have so many stone bullets!"
"As long as it survives a few rounds of stone bullets, the Chu people's catapult will be just a decoration!"
…
At the Chu army camp, Xiong Wuliang was in high spirits!
Explode labor!
As long as there are enough stone bullets, not to mention just Jianyang City, even Tiangong can pile them up!
Behind Xiong Wuliang, Zhongli Jun Mifei's lips trembled slightly and his face turned pale!
The slap in the face came too quickly!
In just three days, a full 200 catapults were delivered to the Chu army's camp - what was shocking was that these catapults were made with exquisite workmanship and were not shoddily made at all!
When these catapults were delivered, they were still in the form of a pile of parts, and Mi Fei even made some mocking remarks at that time.
As a result, the craftsmen in Quyang County, under Mi Fei's nose, took less than half an hour to assemble all the catapults!
Every detail of every catapult is exactly the same! As if they were carved from the same mold!
This is the product of standardized assembly line production in a wood processing factory.
What was even more difficult for Mi Fei to accept were the large quantities of neat and rounded stone bullets!
If no one had seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that such a disposable consumable stone bullet could be polished so perfectly!
Qu Ping and a group of Chu generals smiled cheerfully as they watched the catapults roaring continuously.
In the past few days, Jianyang City has tortured them so much!
All the generals unanimously turned their attention to Xiong Wuliang. Former general Wu Bi bowed his hands to Xiong Wuliang with sincerity and said: "You are a great talent, I can't wait."
Qu Ping also nodded repeatedly and praised greatly: "If it weren't for the catapults of the right-leading army, even if we take this city, our soldiers will definitely suffer heavy casualties under Jianyang City."
"The leader on the right deserves the first credit!"
"Send the order, Xiong Wuliang, the leader of the left army, is promoted to the commander-in-chief of the rear army!"
Except for Zhongli Junmifei, whose lips moved but could not make a sound, all the generals congratulated Xiong Wuliang together. Generals Zhong Hua and Shaohu, who stood behind Xiong Wuliang, were also full of joy.
Zhong Hua is naturally very pleased and feels that there is hope for the revival of Quyang County!
As for Shaohu, he was glad that he was loyal to a lord who was rising strongly.
The surrounding Chu army officers and soldiers bowed their hands to Xiong Wuliang and saluted: "I have seen General Liang before!"
Xiong Wuliang was very proud. After returning the salutes to everyone around him, he smiled at Qu Ping and said: "General Zhuguo, I have inexhaustible stone bullets from Quyang County. I can blast Jianyang City into pieces." Jifen!"
Xiong Wuliang had already begun preparations for the Great War.
The stone bullets used in the catapult were naturally not polished one by one by craftsmen - Shi Er used the latest polishing technology!
Hydro grinder!
To put it simply, it uses a water tanker as a power driver, throws the collected stones into a grinder, and mixes and grinds them with sand.
Almost 90% of the manpower is saved.
The polishing factory in Quyang County can produce thousands of these stone bullets every day! It can completely supply the bombardment of catapults!
As for the catapult, it has also been improved by Shi Er - adding a counterweight system to the traditional human catapult, turning it into a counterweight catapult.
In this way, the accuracy of the catapult will be greatly enhanced!
The standardized production of counterweight catapults, coupled with the perfectly spherical stone bullets, is a powerful combination, and this has achieved a terrifying 80% hit rate!
Two hundred catapults roared incessantly, and Jianyang City was crumbling under the continuous bombardment.
Even the city wall made of bluestone cannot withstand such a dense and powerful bombardment!
Three hours later, a certain stone bullet caused a huge chain reaction. There was a loud rumble, and in full view of the Chu army, the solid city wall collapsed...
A huge gap appeared that could pass through three people!
Looking from a distance, people in Jianyang City flashed, exclaiming and using various things to try to block the gap again.
The morale of the Chu army was greatly boosted, and they cheered in unison: "Great Chu will be victorious!"
"The Great Chu is victorious..."
All the generals cast their fiery glances at Qu Ping, but Qu Ping smiled slightly and looked very calm!
"Continue! All the catapults are aimed at that gap! I want to level Jianyang City!"
…
Jiuchao is in dire straits!
The city wall that he once thought he could defend until he died of old age was smashed into a huge gap!
Those Chu people's catapults seemed to have eyes, and they hit the gap accurately and hard, causing heavy casualties to the Vietnamese soldiers who tried to rush up to fill the gap!
And what's even more terrible is that the gap is getting bigger and bigger! Now it can accommodate five people entering and exiting side by side!
Grandma!
The Chu people's catapults were just accurate... Where did they get so many stone bullets!
At the moment of fierce despair, the city wall let out a huge wail again. Under the horrified gaze of many Vietnamese soldiers, the city wall collapsed... revealing a huge flaw.
"The city is broken! The Chu people are coming in!"
"Escape for your life!" the Vietnamese soldiers shouted.
Not afraid of the threat of the fierce guards' swords, he turned around and ran away.
The soldiers of the Vietnamese army have never been characterized by strict military discipline... Now that the city has been destroyed, and the bombardment of stone bullets that lasted all day, the courage of the soldiers has long been frightened.
Ji Chuo looked up and saw the Chinese army's flag swinging regularly at the Chu army's camp.
The soldiers of the Chu army, who had been preparing for the attack for a long time, were full of morale, formed a square formation, and shouted to kill every three steps.
Come towards Jianyang City!
In front of the fierce people, there is no longer the protection of the city wall.
"Master Jiechao was killed by a stone bullet. The Chu army has launched a general attack. Brothers, please run for your lives!" The soldiers of the Yue army, who were already scattered, became even more panicked and fled like headless flies.
Ji Chuo's lungs were so angry!
"Those who flee will die! The three armies obey the order and follow me to kill the Chu people!" Fierce Chuo pulled out the sword from his waist and roared desperately.
"General!" Behind Ji Chuo, the loyal camp commander hugged Ji Chuo!
"This city is ruined! What's the use of dying?"
"Please, the head of the family, put the overall situation first!"
Many soldiers swarmed up, snatched the sword from the murderer's hand, and then fled eastward with the murderer surrounded!
The Chu army strode into the almost undefended Jianyang City. When they encountered the slow-running Yue soldiers, they stepped forward with a sword in their pocket and a spear in their chest!
These days, the Chu army lost troops and generals under Jianyang City, and they have already suppressed a lot of anger!
Now that the city is in ruins, how can we hold back our anger?
The Yue people who did not escape and the Yue people who ran slowly were all killed with one sword.
If Jianyang City was not a purely military fortress with few civilians, I am afraid that these red-eyed Chu soldiers might have committed scandals such as massacre of the city!
Xiong Wuliang, the newly promoted commander-in-chief of the rear army, was the first to achieve success. Surrounded by other generals, he actually looked a bit regretful——
"If we use catapults to bombard for another hour, I think we will be able to fight without bloodshed!"
