The power of 120 trebuchets, the miserable Nanpi City

“In addition, order Nanpi City Zhongdiwang to find a chance to kill the East Gate defender on the day of siege. If there is a chance to open the gate, open the gate.”

After Sun Yi made arrangements, Yuhuan quietly withdrew from the camp.

Xu Shu has long been used to seeing similar scenes, but Tian Feng still feels frightened.

Before Yuan Shao, I was used to the scene of strategizing in the camp.

Under the public Sun Yi, it seems that in addition to strategizing, it also added a strong taste of conspiracy.

Tian Feng would like to say that the netting is not the right way, but the netting organization can always bring all kinds of timely and accurate intelligence, and it can also play some seemingly small but huge influence on the battle situation at a certain node of the war. .

Just like now.

The most important advisers in Nanpi City, brothers Xinping Xinpi and Xun Chen have already contacted Tianluo.

And they haven’t reported to Yuan Tan!

The ground net responsible for the assassination is also preparing to close the net, aiming at the East Gate defender.

When the defender is dead, the difficulty of attacking the city is much less under the attack of inside and outside.

And just now, the main attack direction planned by Sun Yi and Xu Shutianfeng was Ximen.

For a while, Feng unexpectedly didn’t know whether the south gate or the north gate was the main direction of Sun Yi’s efforts.

Public Sun Yi seemed to see the doubt in Tian Feng’s heart, smiled and said, “It’s actually Nanmen.

Tian Feng shuddered in fright, what the hell?

After doing it for a long time, what you are going to do is the South Gate?

Afterwards, Sun Yi smiled more happily, “Yuan Hao, just kidding, it is actually Ximen who is the main attacker, attracting the main force of Yuan Tan, and at the same time sending elite soldiers to ambush outside the east gate. When the east gate is weak and the defender is killed, then Just go in.”

Tian Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Sun Yi’s mind is still a human mind.

The lord “don’t make this kind of joke in the future, the subordinates will be frightened.”

Two days later, Chen Niu’er stared at a face that might die suddenly at any time, and appeared outside the company’s Sun Yi’s camp.

“General, the catapult has been built. There are 35 catapults in total. The test results showed that almost one catapult can fire 30 catties of rocks more than 30 times.

“The boulders collected around have also been transported.”

Gong Sun Yi nodded in satisfaction, “Chen Niu’er did a good job. After taking Nanpi, I will ask you for credit and give you an official status.”

Chen Niu’er’s eyes brightened when he heard it. He didn’t expect that he was a carpenter. Now he not only has enough food and clothing, but he also has more than two hundred acres of land outside Lulong City, where he will marry a wife and have children.

Can you still be an official now?

This world has really changed.

As long as you follow the lord, you will surely have a good life.

Soon, everything is ready.

The trebuchet was operated by hundreds of craftsmen headed by Chen Niuer, plus four to five hundred auxiliary soldiers.

On average, there are less than a dozen people waiting for a catapult.

Of course, manpower is required for operation, aiming, launching, and loading.

Soon thirty-five catapults were pushed to a distance of more than one hundred feet from Nanpi City.

In addition to the thirty-five catapults, there are about thirty bed crossbows, also swinging forward, piled with javelin-like crossbow arrows.

There are more than 10,000 cavalry on both sides of the back, an annoying soldier in black armor.

If Yuan Tan has the courage to lead his troops out of the city, what awaits him will be the head-on attack from the most powerful light cavalry and heavy infantry in the world.



However, Yuan Tan was standing on the wall at this time, but he didn’t have any thoughts to go down.

From afar, Guo Tu Yuan Tan Xin commented that they saw the catapult launched by Sun Yi Jun.

Yuan Tan frowned and said, “Where do these people come from? Isn’t the Gongsun family not good at attacking cities, but only good at field warfare?”

“The generals don’t have to worry, but Nanpi City can’t be beaten by a mere fire.

Guo Tu quickly stepped forward to comfort him.

Yuan Tan nodded, and a smile of disdain appeared from the corner of his mouth.

Nanpi City was originally a big city in Jizhou.

After Yuan Tan insisted on defending Nanpi, he even collected a large amount of materials to defend the city, such as pomegranate wood kerosene, and dug a moat outside the city wall.

Although Nanpi is dry in spring and has not yet stored water, it is not easy to climb over a gully close to one foot deep.

Not to mention the antlers scattered everywhere.

There have been several waves of Nanpi City that wanted to win before, from Yuan Shangjun, who is quite capable, to Cao Cao, who is strong and strong, and even Gongsun’s family, the chief culprit who is smashing Jizhou in the limelight, has come more than once.

None of these military horses stepped into Nanpi, and they all returned.

Today these people are nothing more than passers-by outside Nanpi City.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan picked up the flask again and started drinking.

At this moment, Xin Ping slowly and quietly retreated from the city wall.

“Smoke, measure the wind!”

Following Niu’er’s order, a pile of firewood was lit every ten feet in front of the formation, and black smoke rushed into the sky.

“Catapult! Ranging! Aim at the city wall!”

After the order was given, the sound of the winch spinning suddenly sounded in front of the battle, which was extremely ear-piercing.

At this time even Yuan Tan and Guo Tu on the city wall heard them.

Looking at the operation of Sun Yi Jun, Yuan Tan laughed, as if seeing something funny, he couldn’t help taking a few more sips of wine.

But Guo Tu’s face slowly changed.

The army outside the city seems to be different from the army that fought under Nanpi City before.

Before Guo Tu could think about it, he heard a tidy loud noise, and a shadow flew out of thirty-five catapults.

Immediately, some head-sized stones gradually enlarged in Guo Tu’s eyes and flew toward the Nanpi city wall.

Guo Tu’s face turned pale suddenly, and cold sweat slowly dripped down his forehead.

This is not a thunderbolt gun. The thunderbolt gun can’t hit that far at all. It can only hit thirty or forty feet, and it’s okay to smash the arrow tower of the watchtower.

However, these catapults were separated by a distance of about a hundred meters, and even the elite archers in the city were standing on the wall, and they did not shoot that far.

The head-sized stone smashed down with a howling sound.

Some of these stones hit the wall of Nanpi (Li Ma’s), and suddenly a millstone-sized hole appeared on the surface of the brick wall, and then the bricks and stones were scattered.

Some stones crossed the city wall and smashed into Nanpi City. Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the city.

The roof of the house beside the city wall was directly smashed and a cloud of smoke and dust appeared.

There were also a few stones that hit the wall accurately.

The guards on the city wall couldn’t avoid it, and those who were hit by the stone head on, even the screams and screams were too late, and they were broken to pieces.

Flesh and bones and broken armor and limbs flew all over the city walls.

The soldiers around were scared and stupefied. I didn’t expect that these catapults weren’t a joke. The stones could really hit the city wall.

For a time, many soldiers began to shrink from the altar.

The two generals of Cen Bi and Peng Wen shouted loudly on the city wall to make the soldiers stand by

Yuan Tan threw the wine bottle in his hand and shouted angrily, “Where are the crossbowmen? Call the crossbowmen and shoot them to death!”
