"Lord! 70% of the equipment on the city wall has been lost! It is urgent to replenish it!"
After the war, although the enemy was defeated and the crisis was resolved, a series of troubles also came.
However, although many generals were extremely tired, they all felt much more relaxed!
Beidi even revealed his trump card this time, which naturally made them feel more at ease!
If you use a similar method to catch someone off guard, of course there is nothing wrong with it, even if it works wonders! However, this thing is just a magic trick. After you use it, you can use it a second time, and it will still be used on the same person.
Yes, isn't this just waiting to be killed?
"How much inventory is there in the customs!" Speaking of this, Wang Yu also had a headache!
Naturally, there will be a certain amount of inventory of large equipment such as catapults and bed crossbows to ensure that they can be replaced in time if they are damaged during a defensive battle! It is normal for these large machines to suffer a lot of wear and tear during long-term tug-of-war.
thing!
However, even if there is a certain amount of inventory, it is only the total number of all the equipment on the wall.
After these large-scale instruments are manufactured, they do not mean that they are placed in a warehouse and nothing happens. They also need to be re-maintained regularly!
Therefore, of course, it is impossible to infinitely manufacture a batch of large equipment and pile it directly in the warehouse, which will only cause a waste of resources! The number of spare equipment stored in different cities and levels is strictly calculated!
Furthermore, given the situation at Tianlang Pass, who would have thought that there would be such a large-scale loss of so many instruments. And if they just want to lose them in the normal tug-of-war, even if the inventory is consumed, the real consumption of the inventory will not be the same.
Before the light, there is enough time to mobilize a batch from the rear!
But now such an unexpected situation occurred, which really caught them off guard.
Who would have thought that there would be such a force coming directly from the sky? They touched the back of their wall and actually used the kerosene they had on the wall to directly destroy the equipment on their wall.
Given the width of the Tianlang Pass wall, even if the opponent used a catapult to throw kerosene cans, the firepower would not be able to extend to the rear of the wall, so they confidently and boldly placed a batch of kerosene on top of the wall.
, so that if the enemy makes a surprise attack, let the catapults on the city wall activate immediately!
However, I never thought that I would end up cheating myself!
"Lord, the inventory in the pass and the crossbows can be replenished. However, the reserves of the catapults are seriously insufficient and cannot even replenish half of the losses!" Xue Rengui replied directly.
After he took over as the acting guard of Tianlang Pass, the first thing he did was to clean up the family fortune of Tianlang Pass. Only by knowing this, could he fully mobilize the power of Tianlang Pass once a war broke out.
Therefore, he knows the situation at Tianlang Pass better than Wang Yu.
"Lord, the catapults are huge. The main losses during the multi-day battle are catapults! And the reserves in the pass are also more crossbows!" Shi Yongkai explained helpfully.
Wang Yu nodded clearly. Although the crossbow is more precise and has a higher technological level than the catapult! But the catapult is too big and takes up too much space!
Therefore, when stocking up, the proportion of bed crossbows is indeed slightly higher.
"No matter what! If there are not enough catapults, it will be difficult for us to deal with the threat of the opponent's siege equipment!" Wang Yu frowned.
Beidi risked his life to build a defensive position for their catapults, which was supposed to prevent them from using their high range advantage to destroy their large equipment.
Now if the quantity is insufficient, it will be even more difficult to destroy!
After all, if you want to destroy the enemy's large equipment, the catapult is far more powerful than the crossbow! There are not enough catapults to project kerosene. The bed crossbow alone is enough to deal with people, but it is not enough to kill large equipment.
Got it!
Although Alcyonius and Li Yuanba have very strong shooting abilities, we can't really let these two people compete with these large instruments in terms of range, right?
"Lord! If you can let the catapult phalanx press behind, use crossbows as the main defense in front of the wall!" Yue Fei suggested at this time.
Although Yue Fei was only a general in the army and was not qualified to participate in such a meeting, he was just like Li Jing when he was pulled in by Wang Yu to listen. At the same time, he also showed his intention to cultivate this person!
For these people with real ability, even if they don’t give the other party a high position when they first arrive, they still have to give the other party a piece of cake first! If they don’t even have a piece of cake, there is no hope of getting ahead. These really capable people may not be able to
I've been wasting time here. Isn't that what happened when Han Xin turned his back on Xiang Yu?
"Wonderful!" Li Jing glanced at Yue Fei in surprise and praised directly.
It is really a very simple method, but very practical! But sometimes it is like this, some smart people will think too much and ignore these originally simple methods!
With the advantage of height, the range of their catapults is already a long way away from the range of the opponent's catapults. Even if the catapult position is moved back a certain distance, it can still threaten the opponent's catapult position!
However, the opponent's catapult cannot pose a threat to their catapult!
Since the quantity is insufficient, then save these remaining quantities first and concentrate on doing big things!
And although the crossbow position pressed forward will bear the main losses in the subsequent defensive battle! However, the problem is that transporting the crossbow from the rear is much easier than transporting a catapult!
The two parties are not of the same size at all, so the difficulty of transporting them is naturally not the same!
Although the catapult can be disassembled and assembled, and then transported to the personnel carrier for escort, the disassembly and assembly process is quite time-consuming and energy-consuming!
Because of their huge size, these large catapults are more susceptible to damage from the opponent's concentrated firepower. During construction, many places will be wrapped with iron sheets or bronze to enhance their defense! But it is precisely because of this step that disassembly and assembly are also possible.
The process is more time-consuming and labor-intensive!
Instead of wasting this energy, it is better to mobilize craftsmen to build it on the spot, just like what was done in Beidi outside the customs.
"Lord, the loss of various types of equipment is only a minor matter! A large number of generals were injured in this battle! In fact, generals Yi and Yao may have to be sent to the rear to recuperate as soon as possible and will not be able to participate in this battle!" Xue Rengui said sadly.
In this battle, Cheng Yaojin and Niu Gao overloaded their role as lieutenants and rescued many generals. Although there were some temporarily, the number was not large. However, the number of injuries was even greater than that of Xue Rengui.
I feel a headache, this is the worst I have ever experienced in a war!
