Yuan Shao under the city cave suddenly let out a miserable howl.
After failing to hit the city, Yuan Jun had to give up this conventional style of play and continue to rely on trebuchets for output.
"Strengthen the two wings and attack me fiercely. You must reach the top of the city. The two wings break through and take down the city wall in one fell swoop."
Since the attack on the city cave failed, Xu You, Feng Ji and others had no choice but to suggest that Yuan Shao shift the main attack direction to the two wings and change the breakthrough method and direction.
The fighting between the two sides continued to be fierce, and the fighting became more and more brutal, and the casualties continued to increase.
The trebuchets on both sides attacked each side, and stone bullets flew around inside and outside the city.
Chapter 596
Zhu Ling and Zhang Fei personally guarded the two wings and beheaded the attacking Yuan Jun one by one or flew them down the city wall, tightly controlling the city wall.
Yuan Jun suffered a huge loss, but he continued to attack like ants, wave after wave like a tide.
Looked at the sky, then looked at the time scale, looking for a good place of refuge inside the gate of the city tower Guo Jia gave an overview of the overall situation and ordered: "The catapults on the two wings can be pushed forward, and cover the catapults of Yuan Jun." Position, kill him at once."
"Here!"
The two-wing trebuchet troops who received the order had long been tired of waiting, loaded the stone bombs, and then concentrated and smashed towards Yuan Jun's trebuchet positions outside the city.
Soon the stone bullet was thrown out and landed fiercely in the catapult array.
A trebuchet was ruthlessly smashed, and the operators were scared to avoid it.
Yuan Jun wanted to move his position, but it was too late. Most of the trebuchets were smashed beyond recognition and became pieces of broken wood.
There are also a small number of missing arms and legs.
"hateful!"
Yuan Shao cursed angrily when he saw that his own weapon had been destroyed, and the others also regretted it.
The defenders in the city have so many trebuchets, and the projected range is farther than theirs.
After a wave of dark losses, all the trebuchets were destroyed.
This is quite a disadvantage for the siege.
"My lord, are we going to withdraw our troops?"
Without the suppression of the trebuchet, the possibility of pushing the attack was completely lost in the front. A general asked Yuan Shao.
"No! Attack from the front, press all in, notify the other two city gates, and follow up the attack at the same time." Yuan Shao's face became determined at this time.
This is the case in siege, one effort, then decline, and three exhaustion.
If you can't win Pingyuan City today, then the possibility of winning it in the future will be much smaller.
Now that they have lost so much, let's just make a big wave, the whole army presses up, continues to attack, and breaks the will of the fourth school's lieutenant army with a strong breakthrough.
Following Yuan Shao's order, generals Zhang Jai, Wen Chou, Chun Yuqiong, Han Juzi, Jiang Qi, Meng Dai, Wang Zhao, Cen Bi, Peng An and other generals rushed forward one after another.
The west, south and north gates launched a fierce attack.
"Notify all the generals that Yuan Shao's best attack is coming. If we withstand this wave, we will win, and the battle will be easy in the future." Seeing Yuan Jun's flag waving in the city, and a larger crowd pressing down, Guo Jia Then he knew Yuan Shao's plan.
"Sir, shall we use beehives?"
Such a dense crowd of people under the city made the generals defending the city a little ready to move.
There is another sharp weapon in the city that has not been used and has been kept.
This kind of weapon is only used in the most difficult time, and it is used when the city is about to lose its hold. It is absolutely capable of turning the tide.
Guo Jia thought for a while and said, "Use it, use the most powerful 'Thousand People Slash'! It hurts Yuan Shao once."
"Yes!" The deputy captain was overjoyed, and then commanded the soldiers to carry out boxes one by one from the cave for hiding soldiers under the city.
The boxes were quickly placed on the battlements, and then the wooden cover on the outside of the boxes was removed.
I saw that the top was densely packed with holes, like a honeycomb.
Inside each hole is an arrow.
This is a large honeycomb box. If you count it carefully, you will know that there are a thousand well-made crossbow bolts hidden in it.
"Three, two, one! Let it go!"
Severely break the mechanism at the back of the box, and the transmission device inside starts immediately.
In an instant, the crossbow arrows in the honeycomb box came out like a group of vanguards coming out of the nest to fight.
Numerous crossbow arrows rained down on the city.
"Puff puff……"
Yuan Jun, who was charging under the city, fell down in an instant, his body was full of crossbow arrows, and corpses lay there, leaving a large area empty.
Yuan Jun, who was not hit behind, was stunned.
Very sharp, so brutal!
Several arrows flew out of the four honeycomb boxes one after another, quickly striking and killing Yuan Jun under the walls of each city.
Yuan Shao, Xu You and others, who were watching the battlefield from behind, took a deep breath.
This made Yuan Jun a little terrified. This deterrence was bigger than a trebuchet. They would be wiped out as soon as they rushed into the city. There was no luck. No one would be afraid, even young generals with higher martial arts skills would not be able to avoid it.
The crossbow arrows are too dense, there are too many, one arrow can be blocked, but the second arrow cannot be blocked absolutely, not to mention that each person has more than three or four arrows.
The fourth school lieutenant continued to move new boxes, and went down like empty boxes.
This time it was replaced with a medium beehive with [-] arrows and a small beehive with [-] arrows.
The 80-pack of small beehives is the most flexible and the most efficient. It can be shot at a place with a little more people. One stud down, and another [-] people are downed. It is almost an enemy with one arrow, and the utilization rate is the best.
However, medium and large beehives need to be used in places with the densest population and the largest scale so as not to waste them, so the frequency of use is much smaller.
With the close-range culling of the beehive boxes, Yuan Jun who rushed to the city was afraid, and retreated without orders.
"Damn! What kind of weapon is this?" Yuan Shao and his subordinates never thought that Xu Dingbu had such a powerful weapon, and they had never heard of it.
Liannu Yijing is an efficient continuous fire weapon, which has caused great psychological deterrence and practical troubles to people.
Now there is a weapon with hundreds of arrows, which is definitely a big killer for defending the city, more terrifying than bed crossbows.
