Xu Mingfeng left the capital and headed for the Northern Army as quickly as possible.
One person, one horse, one sword...
Not afraid of Xu Mingfeng and others at all.
At the same time, the war between Wu Dynasty and Soochow stopped for a while.
At this time, all the soldiers of Soochow had retreated behind the city wall defense.
Because in the frontal waters, they were no match for the Wu Dynasty navy.
Along the waters of Soochow and on the city walls, dragon flags and poplars are flying, which represents the visit of the Supreme Being of Soochow on the 95th.
Wu Jun now wears golden armor and holds a golden sword in his hand... Yes, this time he will live and die together with all the soldiers.
Lu Xun came to Wu Jun's side and said loudly: "Your Majesty, all the soldiers have withdrawn!"
Wu Jun nodded, "Well... Prepare the equipment to defend the city wall. This time, I will make it impossible for the Wu Dynasty people to come back!"
"yes……"
With an order, everyone got busy, preparing rocks, rolling logs and other defensive equipment.
Now Mr. Wu is very lucky that he ordered to build this city wall for defense. Otherwise, Soochow would have been breached by now.
At present, the defense equipment is ready.
The arrow was also on the string.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
As long as the navy of the Wu Dynasty dares to come, all its invading enemies will be buried.
For Soochow, this battle was very important, a matter of life and death.
Wu Dynasty Navy Camp…
Shi Gandang, Lei Yi and other generals all gathered together.
discussion.
They were discussing how to take down the Soochow City Wall, a tough piece of defense.
"General, the city wall defense of Soochow is only two steps away from the river. Even if our warships reach the city wall, we may not have time to build a ladder!"
"yes!"
"this……"
"Even if the warships are fixed, they still cannot meet the conditions for siege and defense of the city wall!"
All the soldiers spoke one after another.
Lei Yi's face twisted and he sighed, "I'm afraid, this bone will be difficult to eat!"
Shi Gandang didn't take it seriously and said calmly: "This city wall defense looks very large. It's still unclear whether it can stop the navy of the Wu Dynasty!"
"What do you think?"
"Well, having said that, I still find it very difficult!" said a deputy general.
Lei Yi thought for a moment and then said: "General Shi, tell me how to fight?"
Shi Gan looked down and said word by word: "Immediately, order the 30,000 vanguard battalion to be divided into three groups and prepare to attack!"
"It's a mule or a horse, you have to take it out for a walk first!"
The generals also thought it made sense and nodded.
So the Pioneer Battalion of 30,000 people was divided into three groups of 10,000 people each.
The warships of the Wu Dynasty used their fastest speed to attack the defense line of Soochow City Wall...
On the water, the moment the Wu Dynasty warships appeared, the catapults on the city wall were already firing on all cylinders.
Smashed out.
The first lieutenant general was Cheng Kui. He was a tall man with a rough face, giving people a very unpleasant feeling. He was holding a long sword with a handle and shouted: "Go ahead at full speed!"
"Give it to me..."
After the drum sounds.
All the warships were moving forward at full speed, as if they had been given blood.
Because only in this way can we effectively avoid rocks...
Soon, the soldiers led by Cheng Kui reached the defense of the city wall. There was no doubt that as the distance was shortened, they became living targets. Various weapons were thrown at them. In a short time, they
, more than five hundred soldiers of the Wu Dynasty fell in a pool of blood...
Blood dyed the water red.
And there were corpses floating there.
On the wall of Soochow City, Lu Xun's eyes were dark, "Sink their warships!"
"yes!"
Big rocks fell from the tower.
Tons tons tons…
Smashed on the warship.
Many of its warships had holes in them, and water began to pour in.
Cheng Kui originally wanted to use the warship as an offensive platform, but it seemed that was not feasible. They had to use the fastest speed to break through the city wall.
He looked coldly, like a knife, "Use the three-attack bed crossbow to shoot through their city gate for me!"
"Yes, General..."
The soldiers on the warship moved their three-bow crossbows and aimed at the city gate.
Twenty, launched simultaneously.
One after another, the big arrows brought out an extremely terrifying force and hit the wooden door. After a while, a big hole appeared in the wooden door. After another wave of fierce shots, the thick wooden door was broken.
Cheng Kui brandished his sword and ordered, "Attack part of the city gate and part of the city wall!"
Soon, their group of people divided into two groups, and one wave passed through the ladder to kill on the city wall.
Another group of people had already fought their way under the cracked city gate. When they arrived, they saw that the city gate had doors both inside and outside, so they had to use door breaking awls.
One by one, roaring...
Tons!
There was a continuous thunder-like crashing sound.
When Cheng Kui saw that he could not successfully build the ladder, he ordered his soldiers to shoot the big arrows from the three-bow crossbow on the city wall to build the ladder to heaven.
Just like that, big arrows broke free from the bowstring crazily and pierced into the city wall.
This is the terrifying thing about the three-bow bed crossbow. It can also shoot slug arrows, which is convenient for soldiers to attack cities.
One after another, large arrows quickly formed a ladder shape, and many soldiers borrowed arrows to climb up.
When the Soochow generals saw it, their faces were extremely ugly. How the hell can this be done?
The ladder couldn't be built, so why not use this method?
Wu Jun now also saw the horror of the three-bow bed crossbow, and said solemnly: "The Wu Dynasty actually developed such a terrifying big arrow, this..."
Soochow also imitated it, and although the one they produced was somewhat powerful, it was not at all comparable to the three-bow bed crossbow of the Wu Dynasty.
Lu Xun said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, we have an army of 400,000 and we will definitely be able to defend it!"
Clenching his fist, he gritted his teeth...
Wu Jun's eyes were cold, "Yeah!"
Soochow is fighting a battle to defend the city. In Wu Jun's opinion, if we defend 600,000 with 400,000, that's enough!
Lu Xun raised his hand and ordered, "Smash down the big arrows they shot on the city wall with rocks!"
"Cut off their way to the city and let's see how long they can hold on!"
"yes!"
In an instant, rocks were falling from the city wall like a waterfall.
But even so, not all the big arrows were knocked down. The big arrows were as jagged as the barbs growing out of the city wall.
Cheng Kui and others attacked for a while, but failed to break through as expected.
At this time, the second and third batches of generals were ready, and 20,000 people entered the battle state.
They ordered the warships to move within the range of the three-bow bed crossbow and provide long-range fire support to Cheng Kui and others.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
The densely packed large arrows hit the top of the city wall in an overwhelming manner. With such terrifying power, the city tower was destroyed in just a moment, and many Soochow soldiers died tragically.
Many people were skewered like candied haws before they even reacted.
The Soochow soldiers were so pressed that they could not even lift their heads.
The power of this arrow is really terrifying.
At the beginning, Jiang Ning was well aware of the power of this crossbow, so he ordered craftsmen from all over the country to rush to make 80,000 of them. The Navy was equipped with 20,000 of them. Can you imagine how terrifying the salvo was?
