Chapter 80 Annoyed Yang Peng
But after all, he is a Bronze level player. Once he comes up, the battle is quite big. He even has the extravagance of having a large shield troop to protect the two bed crossbows and push them forward, followed by a siege machine.
Needless to say, the vehicle is a fairly typical siege configuration.
The troops that followed were shield axemen, halberdiers and archers. The three troops formed three neat square formations and slowly advanced behind the siege equipment. There were many people, and they were worthy of being bronze.
A veteran of a certain rank can casually send out hundreds of troops to attack a city without knowing the configuration of his troops. This is really different from the newcomers of no rank who are still in the novice village.
Xia Qi is not panicking. After the population explosion in the previous period, the military strength in his civilization has long been different from what it used to be. And with the help of this city wall, he can exert a greater advantage.
That is the height advantage!
Long-range troops can gain further range and combat power by standing in highland areas or high places. This is not just shown in some games, because it is also true in reality. This is a parabolic problem. The higher you stand, the better your range and combat power will be.
Shoot farther.
If Xia Qi's Eight Bull Crossbow hadn't been built yet, Xia Qi would have been confident in destroying these crossbows based on the current distance between the two sides.
Xia Qi already knew what the other party wanted to do. It was nothing more than using two bed crossbows to destroy his city gates and walls first. After the city gates were completely blasted by the bed crossbows, or all the heavy crossbow arrows specially used for the bed crossbows were used up,
Then let the infantry troops push the siege vehicles to start siege. This is the most common siege routine, and it is also a classic style of play that has been used in China for thousands of years.
After all, with our ancestors as our ancestors, there is no way that they, the descendants of the future, would not even argue about their homework, right?
With a simple gesture of raising his hand, the archers stepped forward one after another.
Although the opponent's current position is still a bit far away, the bow body and arrows have been specially improved by the research department, so this distance is not out of reach.
Xia Qi immediately issued an order: "Target, two bed crossbows outside the city, all ready to fire volley! Fire arrows!!"
With the command, a large rain of arrows flew out! As the siege party facing this rain of arrows, a look of surprise flashed in Yang Peng's eyes. He obviously did not expect that the range of the opponent's archers was actually wider than he expected.
It was still far away, but he was an old bird after all, so he was not frightened by this little battle, and his reaction was quite quick. He only heard orders being shouted repeatedly.
"The large shield troops form a shield formation! Cover the bed and fire the crossbow!!"
As Yang Peng issued the order, large shields like door panels were quickly put together to form a shield wall, protecting the bed crossbow and the soldiers controlling the bed crossbow. At the same time, considering the bed crossbow
In order to solve the problem of firing, a space sufficient for heavy crossbow arrows to be fired was specially reserved.
Seeing this, Xia Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This formation is a bit interesting. It should be based on the shape of a tank. Surprisingly, it is quite thoughtful. Sure enough, after combining it with modern people's imagination, even in the cold
On the weapons battlefield, you can also get a lot of interesting things.
"Bang! Bang!" There were two loud noises in succession, and the heavy crossbow arrows flying through the air directly hit the majestic city wall of Daxia City, smashing two small holes into the city wall.
Centered on the location hit by the heavy crossbow arrow, some of the surrounding rocks began to fall. Yang Peng only gnashed his teeth when he saw this.
This was not good news for him. Although the other side's city wall was not entirely made of rock, it was surprisingly strong.
The most important thing is that if his two bed crossbows are ineffective, then the battle plan he made before will be invalidated.
As for using bed crossbows to directly attack people on the city wall? Then
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
It's complete nonsense.
Not to mention that he only had two bed crossbows. The most important thing was that the accuracy of his two bed crossbows was very poor. Even if he used up all the heavy crossbow arrows he brought, he still wouldn't be able to kill a few people.
"Archer troops, maintain a good attacking rhythm and keep firing arrows!" On the city wall, Xia Qi was still commanding in an orderly manner.
Daxia City is where his headquarters is located, and military supplies such as bows and arrows are made with tens of thousands of technologies.
The group of archers on the city wall were all experienced veterans. After a simple order, they naturally knew what to do.
At the same time, after seeing the specific power of the opponent's bed crossbow, Xia Qi became more skillful. What's the point of making two small holes? His city wall is thick, and with the destructive power of the bed crossbow, he wanted to smash his
Breaking through the city wall is just a dream.
While the archers were shooting arrows, the siege troops on the opposite side were not idle either. They maintained the tank formation and advanced another fifty meters.
Seeing this scene, Xia Qi understood clearly that they wanted to close the distance to increase the destructive power and accuracy of the bed crossbow.
I saw that the advancing siege troops stopped, and then two thick and heavy crossbow arrows hit the city gate hard.
Bang! Bang!
Just hearing two loud noises, the two heavy crossbow arrows were immediately bounced away, and two small pits appeared on the city gate. However, the arrowheads of the two heavy crossbow arrows had been completely destroyed, and even the arrow shafts were damaged.
of fracture.
The city walls of Daxia City were made of iron birch. After the bronze was successfully smelted, Xia Qi then wrapped the outside of the city gate with a thick layer of bronze, and the city gate's defense was raised to a new level.
The installation of bed crossbow is a very tedious process and takes a long time.
"The archers stop firing arrows, open the city gate, and let the cavalry troops attack!"
At Xia Qi's order, the archers on the city wall immediately stopped shooting, and the city gate slowly rose.
"Hey, what's going on on the other side? Do you want to surrender?" Seeing the city gate on the other side open, Yang Peng was stunned for a moment and then guessed.
"As expected, he is a newly promoted rookie. Although he does not know how to build such a large-scale city wall, he is still scared to face such an intense attack."
But soon, his expression changed.
"Damn it, it's the cavalry!"
By the time Yang Peng reacted, it was already too late. Qingyang led the cavalry troops and filed out from the city gate, rushing towards the siege troops in front of them like waves.
The siege force had been dispersed before they could react. After the cavalry charge, they took the captured crossbows and flew away.
Before the remaining siege troops had time to retreat, they were taken away by a wave of archers on the city wall.
"Damn it!" Yang Guang punched the big tree next to him with an ugly look on his face.
Not only did his attack fail to test the opponent's trump card, but he also destroyed the two bed crossbows he had brought.
He has already begun to regret this invasion. For such a powerful player, there must be an extraordinary inviter behind him.
I don’t know what level the person opposite is, gold or platinum?
Compared to Yang Guang's upset mood, Xia Qi was very happy. He looked at the two intact bed crossbows in front of him and said, "Go and deliver them to us."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Go to the research department."
Although the research department has been studying the Eight Ox Crossbow, the current progress is still a bit too slow. It is still in the theoretical stage, and the actual object has not been built yet.
Regarding Yang Peng's behavior this time, Xia Qi wanted to give him a banner with the words "my closest friend" written on it.
Yang Peng's facial muscles twitched, and after taking a deep breath, he finally made up his mind.
"Let the large shield troops escort the siege vehicles and advance, and the shield and ax troops will follow! The archer troops will provide cover and force the siege!!"
The large-scale troop advance made Xia Qi's expression become more playful.
"Looking at this posture, Yang Peng plans to use these troops as cannon fodder. He wants to use the lives of these soldiers in exchange for information on my military strength."
"Then outsiders are so cold-blooded and ruthless to their own soldiers?" There is nothing wrong with being cold-blooded and ruthless to the enemy, but the problem is that they are our own people! Yang Peng's method of asking his soldiers to die undoubtedly aroused the white wolf.
The disgust of everyone.
Xia Qi didn't say anything. Yang Peng obviously still had the problem of some players, that is, he didn't take the lives of his soldiers seriously at all. After all, when playing some games, he occasionally encountered some land reclamation levels.
, you must send some soldiers in as cannon fodder in order to figure out the play style of that level. Thinking and habits like this are the so-called player problems.
Of course, this habit is hard to see when you are not ranked, because at that time everyone was short of troops, so they naturally had to use them carefully. But once you reach the Bronze rank, there is a relatively long period between the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.
During the transitional period, this transitional period gives these players enough time to increase the population of their civilization and expand their military strength. With sufficient military strength, a force of one or two hundred people is probably just a pain for Yang Peng.
to the extent?
Yang Peng himself was cold-blooded and merciless to his soldiers. As an enemy, Xia Qi naturally had no mercy. The archers were divided into teams of a hundred and alternately shot arrows at the city.
Arrows like locusts were shot down continuously, and countless siege troops on the opposite side were shot to the ground in the blink of an eye.
Standing on the city wall, Xia Qi saw this scene clearly. With thoughts racing in his mind, he instantly realized that this was an opportunity.
Just listen to him shouting decisively outside the city, "Your leader is cold-blooded and ruthless. He knows that he has no chance of winning this battle, but he doesn't care about your life and death. He lets you rush up to die in vain just to exchange your lives for mine."
The intelligence on the deployment of troops, why do you bother to serve such a ruthless and unjust man? Why don't you put down your weapons and submit to me?"
The timing of Xia Qi's shouting out these words was really perfect. It happened to be just when the soldiers on the other side were attacked head-on by his defenders and their will was shaken. As soon as he said these words, he directly spoke to the hearts of those soldiers.
It instantly became a catalyst for their inner emotions.
In a siege battle, whether there is a chance of winning, whether the defenders on the opposite side are powerful, and round after round, how ferocious the arrows and stone bullets are hitting the enemy, the soldiers at the front know best, but the leader
The order was given, and they, the soldiers, had no other way to go but to rush forward, because escaping in the middle of the battle would only lead to death.
But now, Xia Qi's approach was tantamount to throwing the second road in front of them on the spot and directly asking them if they wanted to take it.
This scheming was so ruthless that the soldiers who were advancing forward with their shields raised were immediately shaken. The archers' actions of opening their bows and releasing arrows were also unconsciously slowed down. The morale value that had been hit in the first place appeared again.
There was a clear decline.
