At noon, the sun is in the sky!

This place is close to the plateau, and the sun at noon is the most poisonous, and it is not too hot, but the sun is uncomfortable.

Li Shimin really wanted to drink saliva, but all the soldiers were busy.

Archery of arrows, arrays of formations, even the enemy is advancing with shields.

He didn't care about drinking water, looked at the top observer and said, "Fifty steps to report!"

"Four hundred and fifty steps..."

"Four hundred steps..."

"Three hundred and fifty steps..."

"Three hundred steps..."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up, this is what he wanted.

Similarly, regarding the tactics of letting the enemy die without leaving ashes, Lin Hao only said the outfit and effect and parameters in the combat outline.

How to make use of these conditions and achieve the best results depends on the control of the commander.

The enemy soldiers in the front row of 60,000 enemy troops, three hundred paces from the city wall, that is, almost 40,000 enemy troops behind, entered the maximum range of the trebuchet.

The maximum range of the counterweight trebuchet in the city is 600 paces.

Also because the first row of trebuchets in the city is a hundred steps away from the city wall, it is an effective range of five hundred steps from the city wall.

And the 100 trebuchets are arranged gradually backwards, like a chess card.

In this arrangement, that is, the two hundred and fifty steps from the city wall to five hundred steps, are the killing range of the trebuchet array in the city.

Li Shimin smiled at the corner of his mouth, he thought of everything, and he saw a scene.

The length of the wall, and the width of the two hundred and fifty paces, form an area, which is the area where the enemy is killed.

And how to make good use of this area and kill the enemy without wasting anything?

This has to be just right!

What is the time it takes for a trebuchet to bloom from launch to landing?

At this time, at the current speed of the enemy's army, how much can it advance?

This needs to be handled by the on-site commander.

Li Shimin had already calculated that the enemy soldiers would take fifty paces at this speed. It's almost the same as the time he gives the order until the thrown weapon finally hits the ground and blossoms.

When the enemy was 300 paces away from the wall, he gave the order to shoot.

If nothing else, when the enemy soldiers in the front row are two hundred and fifty steps away from the city wall, and fifty steps away from the Shanzhou soldiers who formed the 'contradictory fire separation array', it will be effective.

Everything, just right.

Whether it is the lethal power of the trebuchets in the city or the distance of the enemy's attack, it leaves a safe distance of fifty paces for the soldiers of Shanzhou Prefecture.

Just when the enemy soldiers were three hundred paces away from the city wall, they could only hear a clatter!

Wave the red flag!

Li Shimin said in the loudest voice: "Trebuchet array, shoot!"

The herald immediately ran to the tower facing the lookout in the city.

While waving the red order flag, he shouted loudly: "The general has an order, shoot!"

At the same time, Li Shimin held two red flags and waved them at the same time.

"The archers stop shooting, the bows and arrows are ready to ignite!"

The 3,000 defenders quickly took out their bows and arrows, which had been soaked in oil in the cloth wrapped in arrows, and began to light them in the nearby braziers.

It was also at this time that a large jar of wine was placed in the throwing tray of the trebuchet in the city.

Bang!

The powerful throwing rod was lifted fiercely, and only a hundred large wine jars flew into the sky.

The trebuchet presents a chessboard arrangement, and the heavenly wine jar also presents a full plate of chess pieces.

It was exactly the length of a city wall and a chessboard as wide as 250 paces.

Anyway, these veterans don't care about anything else, they only know that they have agreed in advance, and since the launch order is transmitted, they must launch all ten jars on the side.

As soon as the launch was complete, they began to counterweight again, began to turn the elastic wheel again, and began to carry the jar again.

There is no need to give orders, whoever installs it first will launch it, and the ten jars will be finished after launching.

For these 100 trebuchets, it would be a thousand jars that would be fired.

Out of town!

A hundred jars draw a magnificent parabola and fall from the sky.

At this time, the first row of enemy soldiers was two hundred and fifty paces away from the city wall.

Almost 50,000 enemy soldiers had all entered the trebuchet-killing area, which was two hundred and fifty paces long and two hundred and fifty paces wide.

One by one, the big jars were smashed down, and the damage area was still evenly distributed.

It was the largest jar used by the people to store old wine, and you can imagine how many things a hundred could hold.

The thousand jars that are about to be launched will continue to be launched, and how many things can be held, even more can be imagined.

Cracking sound!

Yes!

Belch!

The jar smashed against their shields and burst instantly.

Fragments of the jar, like shrapnel from a cannonball, scattered in all directions.

However, the yellow liquid inside was scattered everywhere.

"What is this?"

"It's oil!"

"It's lamp oil!"

Li Shimin looked at the disrupted military formation, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and decisively ordered: "Release the arrow!"

Airplanes!

Three thousand rockets lit with fire, again drew a magnificent parabola.

Bang!

Three thousand rockets were scattered all over the place, and when they hit them, they caught fire in an instant.

Those who missed, and those who hit the ground caught fire.

Even those who passed by were on fire.

When it caught fire, I panicked, I started running around, and I started stampedes.

The fire spread as soon as it was watched.

Their leather armor is a natural accelerant, and it is not easy to take off.

In the Bashu dialect, it is called a typical 'Ba to hot'!

Cracking sound!

The big jar is still coming from the sky, and the lamp oil is constantly flying.

Soon, the military formation turned into a sea of fire.

When Li Shimin saw this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

I never thought that the effect would be so good.

"Is this just death without ashes?"

"God bless, fortunately, such a talent was born in my Tang Dynasty!"

Afar!

Murong Zun was instantly powerless, and he only felt that he was evacuated.

He saw only billowing smoke, only the light of the fire.

"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops!"

"Honk, withdraw the troops!"

"Lin Hao, you're not human!"

Murong Zun cried, tears of resentment.

In his opinion, Lin Hao is not a human, he is a beast!

The horn sounded weakly, and there were still nearly 10,000 Tuyuhun soldiers who had not entered the fire array, and they ran away.

He yelled and cried as he ran.

I guess I'm either crazy or stupid when I go back!

And these 50,000 Tuyuhun soldiers and the 60,000 commanders who were on fire couldn't escape.

As the saying goes, a dog has to jump off a wall when it's in a hurry, let alone a human.

It's dead both horizontally and vertically, so it's better to pull some cushions.

"Boys, rush!"

Airplanes!

I saw only a burning phalanx, desperately running towards the city wall.

Li Shimin looked at the 6,000 elite soldiers who formed the 'Contradiction Fire Array'.

His brows furrowed, and he secretly said in his heart: "It's up to you, hold on!"
