"After the emperor of the Western Kingdom, Prince Sheng's husband and Prince Hao all came in person. It seems that they are determined to capture Tianmen pass."
Zhou Sheng, who arrived at the upper tower of the city, looked down on the dense army under the city. His rough and wild face was full of embarrassment and anger. They stood at the top of the city all the year round and let people attack on such a large scale. For them, their arrogant self-esteem did not allow such a thing to exist. However, he did not lose his mind because of this The number of soldiers in Tianmen pass is no less than that of the United forces of the two countries. There are still 700000 soldiers in total, although only 600000 people can really fight.
"I'm afraid that he will do something about it. Tianmenguan city is more than ten feet high. It's as hard as iron and as solid as gold. If they want to attack the city, let them attack enough. With the strength of our eastern country, they won't want to step into Tianmen pass for half a step!"
Another general roared rudely. Do they want to capture Tianmen pass? over my dead body!
"Go down and prepare enough bows and arrows to guard the city. No one is allowed to fight without authorization. Those who violate the orders will be dealt with according to military law." After a little sorting out, Zhou Sheng issued a strong order. He was afraid that some people could not help being provoked and humiliated and forced to fight. When he really fought, he didn't have so much time to deal with them.
"Yes
The emissary retreated. The silent Qilian city stepped forward two steps closer to the edge of the city wall. He looked at Ling Jingxuan, who was still dazzling among the thousands of troops. He really came and said that he wanted to see the destruction of Dongguo city with his own eyes, but he wanted to see how he had caused the destruction of Dongguo city.
"Your Majesty, general Zhou, what do you think that is?"
Everyone looked far away at the dense armies of the two countries and the five men standing on horseback in the army. None of them paid attention to the proximity. The eunuchs around Qilian City exclaimed. They looked down and saw that in front of the three gates, there stood a bronze horse cart pulling things in all directions. It was not like a chariot, let alone a carriage. It was smooth Without any embellishment on the surface, it is a little strange in all directions. A group of people led by qiliancheng can't help but wonder and frown.
"Attack the city!"
When Qilian city and his party appeared in the tower, Ling Jingxuan and others also noticed that although they were too far away to see their looks, they could still see the bright yellow of Qilian city. Ling Jingxuan drew up the corner of his lips coldly, raised a red triangular flag, and the drum suddenly beat. The thunder team in the front of the whole army saw the flag clearly The four square bronze foreign bodies in front of them were pulled by two horses in soft armor. The two ends of the foreign bodies were strangely opened, just like giant bird wings. The front end also showed several small holes less than the size of a baby's fist. The rest was basically unchanged.
"Go on
There are only three strange chariots like the giant bronze bird, but their interior is hollow. After the wings spread out, the thunder team is divided into three parts, and Yan Yi Yan Shan leads his relatives to follow behind, so as to ensure that the bronze iron bird can continue to move forward after the horses in front of the chariot are shot, although they have already put on the horses pulling the chariot and are cast by soft iron In addition to the horse's hooves on the ground, only the horse's eyes are still exposed.
"Attack the city!"
In the sound of war drums, Qin Muyan in the middle of the bronze iron bird roared. Three iron birds, which were very heavy at first sight, moved slowly under the pull of two horses, and the soldiers behind them cried in unison. Although, like the people in the East, they did not know what it was and how they could break the Tianmen pass.
"Ready to shoot!"
At the same time, Zhou Sheng, standing on the tower of the city, also drew out his sword with a brush. Once they entered the range, the soldiers who had already pulled out their bows would release their bows at the same time. At that time, all the arrows would be fired at once. Even if they put soft armor on their horses, they would never escape. Without the horse pulling in front of them, the heavy bronze iron bird would turn into scrap iron in an instant.
"What the hell is that? The others don't seem to be planning to attack the city. "
"Ben has been fighting for so many years and has never seen such a huge and heavy thing. Should he be called a chariot?"
"It's strange to say that the chariot is just like a huge iron bird. It looks strong and strong, but it's too heavy. It can't move without a horse. Once we open the gate to fight back, they will have to run away with their tails."
"Ha ha"
the rest of the officers and men were chattering at the slow moving bronze iron birds, and their attitude was not easy. Even though the two countries' allied forces had already begun to attack the city, they still did not have any idea to worry about. Six horses pulled the bronze iron birds on three specially made scooters in an orderly manner People sitting inside can observe the movement in front of them through the small hole opened in front of them. People outside can't see the inside. The sound of horses' hooves and the sound of heavy wheels interweave and roar. Every time we move forward, the ground seems to vibrate.
"Zhou Aiqing, be careful of their chariots. I don't think it's right."
Without joining in the sarcasm of the officers and soldiers, Qi Liancheng frowned and said, after all, he was once an invincible figure in the battle field. His intuition told him that the huge bronze birds were not only the weird and clumsy they saw, but also, with his understanding of Yan Shengrui, Ling Jingxuan and others, since they had gathered troops to attack, they couldn't have been the only ones It's just a show. But when the order to attack the city was given, the front soldiers didn't move. Instead, they were waving flags and shouting for the three giant birds. He felt strange. To say that the three giant birds were not greasy and did not believe him, their trust in the giant birds was the biggest flaw.Zhou Sheng nodded his head solemnly. His Majesty was worried about something. He knew it. In fact, he also noticed it. However, they were not allowed to see clearly in this situation. They could only fight and watch and adapt to circumstances.
Due to the lack of time, Ling Jingxuan only had time to build soft armour for six horses. As a result, each bronze giant bird had only two horses to pull. According to his plan, he was supposed to invest four horses. However, the time is too urgent. Slow down. It will be too late when Dongguo finds something wrong.
In the two army camps, Yan Shengrui sat on his horse's back, his face was deep, and his tiger eyes were blooming with a strong sense of war. Sikong tamfu and Sikong Hao were not any better. Everyone had no expression. They only looked at the front with their eyes frozen. The only one who sneered was Ling Jingxuan. In today's war, they had an agreement that he was responsible for destroying the city, and Yan Shengrui was responsible for the burden of Sikong Hao They are responsible for defeating the enemy, and they perform their respective duties.
"Princess, our vanguards don't really have to help?"
I don't know how long after that, Sikong Hao couldn't bear to turn his head and ask. Don't blame him for not trusting him. After all, they only met for the first time today. No matter what others said, before they saw it with their own eyes, he held a reserved attitude towards his ability.
"There's no need to look at it calmly, Prince Hao!"
With a light glance at him, Ling Jingxuan's sight goes back to the front again. Dongguo has ordered the arrow to be fired. However, the giant birds made of bronze can't be pierced by their bows and arrows. Yan Shengrui's family members are all behind the bronze chariot. The arrows coming from the front can't hurt them. The huge open wings also have good preventive effect. As for those who are pulling the chariot in front Horses, the soft armour he made for them was made by repeatedly refining steel bars into filaments and then tempered. Despite its thin layer, bullets can't penetrate, let alone arrows. So the conclusion is that no matter how they shoot arrows, they are just wasting bows and arrows.
"Can that Bronze Bird still change? Or is it equipped with a ladder for siege? Jingxuan, tell me, what are you going to do? "
Xue Wuyang asked curiously. At the beginning, he was puzzled to the point that he couldn't do it. Now he is so angry that he would like to see it in person.
"How long is the ladder for a ten foot tower? Shengrui's personal soldiers and my thunder team are enough to be one as ten. I will not be stupid enough to use them as ordinary soldiers. "
Ling Jingxuan made his hypothesis laugh. From the beginning, he did not plan to attack the city in the traditional way. For the convenience of marching, they didn't bring it out at all. There was a bronze chariot, which was enough to break the city easily.
"What do you look like? Judging from its appearance, it is a bronze pimple. What else can it do besides hide people? "
The more he said that, the more curious Xue Wuyang was, and he didn't know how he got it. Based on his years of experience traveling around the world, he didn't even hear of this strange siege chariot.
"You'll find out later."
Ling Jingxuan smiles mysteriously and turns to reach out to hold Yan Shengrui's hand. He signals him to wait with his eyes. Yan Shengrui gives him a look of understanding. The husband and wife have always been very understanding. The waiting time is not enough to make them anxious.
"Is it?"
Knowing that he won't reveal the answer in advance, Xue Wuyang can only bear to wait. The Phoenix eyes of the demon hook people bloom with a curious divine color. The two brothers of Sikong Tama look at him gently. When Ling Jingxuan takes back his sight, he just sweeps the bitterness of Sikong Hao's eyes. He follows his line of sight to see Xue Wuyang and his eyebrows rise, all about Sikong Hao's message flashed into his mind in an instant. Almost in a moment, he got the answer he wanted. However, those had nothing to do with him, and he would not talk freely.
"No, general Zhou, our arrows are useless!"
Seeing that the bronze birds were about to arrive at the gate, the captain who was in charge of the command shooting gave an anxious report. Although none of them knew what the birds were doing, judging from their heavy posture, if they directly hit the gate, the strong gate would not last long.
"General Wang, go and join General Xiao and General Chen. The three of you will personally lead 2000 cavalry out of the city to stop the iron birds from approaching and kill the people inside."
Zhou Sheng was also aware of the seriousness of the matter, and had to send people out to spy on the enemy's movements. The feeling of knowing that the enemy had a plot but not being able to guess clearly was particularly tormenting.
"Yes
General Wang took the order and went away. Zhou Sheng looked down at the big birds with a dignified look. Qilian city next to him slowly raised his head. His eyes passed through hundreds of thousands of armies of the two countries and accurately locked in Ling Jingxuan. What did he want to do? If you just use those iron birds to break through the city gate, he can only say that he is stupid and wasted his time. However, with his understanding of him, it should be more than that.
