lazy tang

Chapter 860
The airship is a very good tool. The airship in the sky throws incendiary bombs on top of those trebuchets.Many people tried to extinguish the fire on the catapults, only to be engulfed in blazing flames.

This is the only advantage in the Middle East, and the kerosene bomb tube is enough.Because of the secrecy of nitro gunpowder, the bombs were all transported from Datang thousands of miles away.It's so tight baby!

But there is no need for kerosene bombs, they are all poured from the refinery.It was directly transported to the front line by ship and airship, so Yunhao's kerosene bombs were very extravagant.

The trebuchet on the top of the city was almost burned, and the artillery began to approach and shoot.As for those arrow towers, they were not within Yun Hao's consideration.The range of their crossbow is far from the opponent of artillery.

This time, the target of the artillery was not the city gate.It's the defenders at the top of the city, because the distance is only one and a half miles away.The shooting of the artillery is very precise. Basically, wherever someone shows up, there will be shells to greet them.

In the end, there was not a single arrow tower on the top of the city.As for the people who are active on the top of the city, they absolutely do not exist.It doesn't matter whether you hold a shield or hide in the arrow tower.The powerful artillery will kill you in an instant!

The powerful chemical kinetic energy continuously ejects the projectile.Destroy everything that stands in its way!
The kerosene bombs burned, and the shells were cleared at fixed points.There were no longer any moving creatures on the top of Jerusalem, and the top of the city gate was burning like a huge torch.

Three days, three days caused heavy casualties to the defenders.New troops are constantly being transferred here, and people are constantly being turned into ashes here.This seems to have become a contest between human life and kerosene bombs. The local coach seems to think that as long as this delay continues.Tang Jun's kerosene bombs or shells will be exhausted!

In fact, Yunhao can receive supplies from the sea every night.Airships can cross any land barriers and transport kerosene and gunpowder bombs to the front line.Of course, the number of kerosene bombs far exceeds that of gunpowder bombs.

The defenders in the city couldn't hold on anymore, when the sun rose again.When Tang Jun's artillery pushed towards the city wall of Jerusalem again, thousands of cavalry rushed out of the city.

Yunhao laughed!I knew they couldn't hold on anymore, and now they came out to do their best.I want to use these 1000 people as a price to kill the two artillery pieces of the Tang army.Of course Yunhao would not let them succeed, now there are only these two cannons in the Western Expeditionary Army.In the future, we will attack cities and seize territory, all pointing at these two things.

Of course, Yun Hao would not be so stupid as to use cavalry to fight against them.These guys are equipped with strong plate armor and hold long lances in their hands.These things are not something Yun Hao's light cavalry can deal with.

Although these heavy cavalry charged like a tsunami, their weakness was their bulkiness.No matter how strong the horse is, it is absolutely impossible to run around for a long time with such a heavy weight.

The trebuchet started immediately, throwing something black and exploding in the air.Then countless shiny little things fell on the ground!Numerous triangular nails fell on the rough ground, and the sharp spikes shone coldly under the rising sun.

The artillery was being driven back slowly, dragged by the bullocks.It's not that the gunner doesn't want to go faster, it's that the artillery is too heavy.A muscular mang ox can only be dragged at this speed.

After a round of firing, a shiny area was left behind the artillery.Obviously, Western knights have never seen the power of this triangular nail.If the Turkic cavalry were here, they would immediately slow down their horses.Then retreat as quickly as possible!They suffered too much from this thing, and countless warriors died under this thing.

When the first horse neighed and fell to the ground, the knight on the horse was not prepared at all.He didn't understand why the war horse under his crotch would suddenly kneel down on the ground.The heavy body was thrown out with the wind, and after the heavy armor came into close contact with Mother Earth, he could no longer get up.

There are so many people who have encountered the same situation as him, and no one knows what is going on.Many people even think that this is an ancient magic from the far east.When going out to fight in the city, the holy water sprinkled on the armor by the priests is obviously not effective against this kind of advanced magic.

The knights wanted to stop very much, but the charge didn't mean that they could stop just by stopping.With a heavy horse and a heavy person on the horse, it is basically a luxury to stop at this speed.

Cavaliers continue to fall on the way to charge, and the knights behind them will soon make the same mistake.There are too many triangular nails, tens of thousands of them.Half of the thousand knights were killed without even touching the hair of the cannon.

Finally, they covered the shiny area with corpses.The knight's long lance was aimed at those nasty Tang Jun, who had no chivalry at all.Never dare to fight in an upright manner!
Yun Hao was very satisfied with the result of the triangular nail.These stubborn guys are much easier to deal with than the Turks.

The artillery was still retreating, but the eight-ox crossbow was ready to push to the front of the formation.Following Sheng Yanshi's order, dozens of eight-ox crossbows were fired at once.Countless gunpowder crossbows flew towards the charging knight with green smoke, and the fuze of the gunpowder crossbow was very short.Before it could hit the ground, it exploded in the air.Countless steel balls scattered and splashed with the explosion, although the plate armor on those knights could withstand arrows.But against this kind of explosion, the steel ball, which produces a strong speed, lacks the slightest protection.

The solid plate armor was torn apart like pieces of paper, and countless holes were shot out of the knight who was heavily wrapped in plate armor and chain mail.

The knights, together with their horses, fell to the ground screaming.Blood flowed out continuously along the small holes in the armor.

The knight running in the front was only more than 100 steps away from the artillery.It seemed that their lances were about to stab those damn Tang people.At this moment, they suddenly bumped into a wall.A wall made up of countless crossbow bolts!
The distance is only two hundred steps, which is the best shooting distance for Datang Crossbow.At this distance, even the sturdy plate armor can't withstand the shooting of Datang's crossbow.

The intensive shooting knocked down the knight on the horse, and both the man and the horse were covered with arrows.There were fallen bodies of people and horses everywhere, and the power of the Tang crossbow was guaranteed.

The thousand elite heavy armored cavalry who rushed out of the city gate after several rounds of attacks are now less than 100.

Xiong Kuohai put down his visor with a grinning grin, and charged forward with two hundred Tang heavy armored cavalry with a loud roar.This is all the heavy armored cavalry of the Western Expeditionary Army, and good steel is used on the blade.Now is the time to make good use of steel.

If 200 people can't beat 100 people, it's clearly bullying you.

None of Master Xiong's men used sabers, they all used maces.And they are all pure steel maces!
To deal with heavy cavalry, in fact, swords and spears are no longer easy to use.The best way to use this kind of blunt weapon is to cut a white line with a knife, and to pierce a white spot with a gun.

The mace is different. There are no scars on the surface of the armor when it hits the body.The people inside were indeed internally injured, and a hit on the head could kill them or knock them unconscious.Even if it hits the back, it is likely to break your spine.Make you unable to take care of yourself for the rest of your life!
With the mace of horse speed, it is a nightmare for heavy cavalry.

In the telescope, I watched the two clouds of smoke gradually approaching.In the end, they hit each other hard, and there were constant shouts and curses coming out of the smoke, the sound of weapons colliding, and screams and wailing.

After a while, the smoke finally settled down.The horses roamed the battlefield, constantly nuzzling their fallen masters.Those who can sit on horseback are all Datang cavalry.None of those elite knights survived.

The bullock cart turned around and began to slowly approach the city wall again.This time, there was no movement in the city.The species of knight is also a scarce product in the West.Even the big lords don't take much advantage of it.The lord of Jerusalem is already very remarkable to be able to piece together the knights who stepped forward at one time.

There were no hands on the walls of Jerusalem, and countless soldiers rushed up.Collect the triangular nails that fell on the ground, and more use shovels to fill up the trenches outside the city walls.

Those ditches were full of sharpened logs and are now buried with the soldiers.

Under the deterrence of the cannon, there was no defender at the top of the city.It took only half a day, and the deep trench in front of the city wall was filled.The soldiers climbed up the city wall with difficulty using ladders, and there was not a single defender on the city wall.There are gravels everywhere on the ground, and there are still uncontained corpses.In the place that was burned by the flames yesterday, there was nothing but charred and twisted corpses.

When the huge city gate was opened, there were huge cheers from the Tang army's camp.

Tang soldiers held swords in their hands, and the tide poured into this historic city.They don't care about faith, they care about wealth, endless wealth.Grandpa Guo said that the dome of the temple here is made of gold.Not fooling people with gold powder like Damascus.

Although the main defense force has been destroyed, the power of faith is infinite.Whether you believe in Jesus Christ or believe in Allah.Or the remaining Judaizers!The men took up arms spontaneously to deal with the attacks of the heretics.

Tang people are pagans to all of them!

Street fighting broke out inevitably, Yunhao didn't expect it.During the siege battle, facing the powerful heavy cavalry, there were few casualties.But in the street fighting, Tang Jun suffered heavy losses.

It has to be said that the power of faith is terrifying. Yun Hao saw with his own eyes that someone poured fuel on his body.After igniting it, he jumped down from a high place and hugged a soldier of the Tang army without letting go.Until the flame engulfs the two of them together!
Yun Hao also saw that no matter if it was an old man, a woman, or a child.They all took up arms, and those who had no arms took stones.Try to stop the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty from entering those sacred places.

At the beginning, Tang Jun was quite restrained, and he would spare women, children and the elderly.After all, killing them is not a skill!But after being attacked for a few rounds, the brother who was still stirring a pot in the morning died tragically in front of him.No one could keep calm, so the massacre began regardless of race, age or boundaries.

The order given by Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin was that as long as the eyes seemed to be able to move, they should go up and chop.Those who hid in the house and resisted stubbornly lit a fire and burned them.

In just one morning, they lost hundreds of brothers.This is ten times larger than the number of battle losses in the Battle of Damascus!
These are all veterans who have fought with them for many years, and many of them still dream of returning home in the morning.Now, it has become a scorched black corpse on the ground whose face cannot be recognized clearly.

Masses of soldiers were rampaging through the streets, slaughtering house after house along the street.

Yun Hao looked at all this, but he was powerless and did not want to stop it.Armies are simply violent machines, and when that machine is fueled enough, the consequences can be dire.

The smell of blood permeated every street in Jerusalem, and the closer to the religious holy place, the stronger the resistance Tang Jun encountered.Even unarmed, those people dared to pounce on the soldiers of the Tang army holding horizontal knives.

To move forward is to step on the corpses of the dead, and every step forward, the corpses on the ground are covered with a layer.The sticky blood soaked the ground and the road became muddy.

Everyone is trying to keep their balance, as long as you slip, you will attract countless stones.The tougher ones will jump down from a height with a dagger in hand, although they will be chopped into flesh.But as long as they can stab an enemy soldier before dying, they think their death is worthwhile.

The war was going on with unusual brutality, Li Zhi looked at all this with a pale face.This is not the war he imagined, and it is completely different from what he has experienced before.Holding on to the city wall, he began to vomit. He has vomited several times today.Now I can only vomit the sour water in my stomach, and I have already vomited up the little thing I ate in the morning.Even Li Zhi felt a little regretful, because Mao wanted to eat that damn breakfast.

"Look at this! This is war. It's all about it. It's even fighting with your life, with no regard for your own life. War is great, and war is despicable. Your grandfather, your father. From such a war I walked through it, and finally created the mighty Great Tang Empire. I am honored to be a part of it!

Let's see!The situation in Luoyang City back then was even more miserable than this.I have seen how the cannibal Ma Shumou was divided and eaten by Luoyang people.I once saw the mighty Wang Shichong, who was imprisoned by your father like a dog.

Xieli, who roams across the grassland, was able to sit on an equal footing with your father back then.But now he can only stay in Chang'an City, lingering like a joke.

Let's see!This is what a war that attracts countless heroes competes for.Apart from blood and steel knives, there is only the brilliance of humanity and the catharsis of animal nature.Hack the enemy and you can save your comrades.Hack the enemies and you can live.

This is war! "
