Chapter 357: The West City Wall Fell, and Yan Baihu Died!
After explaining, Shi A stared at the defenders on the wall, observing the various situations above.
He gently touched the several key props in his arms that determined the situation, and a flash of excitement flashed across his face.
This was his first time to participate in such a tragic and huge siege battle. For him, it was a very important experience.
…
Five hundred meters in front of the west wall of Qinglong City, the violent catapults like prehistoric beasts were lined up, throwing huge stones and flints continuously.
These catapults were as huge as trucks, with various precision parts, and they worked seamlessly. There were also many inscriptions with faint glow on them, making the whole thing extremely magical.
With a harsh thump, the huge stones on the catapult were suddenly thrown out, cutting through the air, and bombed to the destination at a high speed.
"The huge stones are coming! Everyone pay attention to avoid them!" Some generals on the wall bulged their eyes and roared.
Some generals also kept avoiding it. It was not that they did not want to break and smash these boulders with force, but they were powerless.
They had tried it before, and what frightened them was that the yellow-level generals could not resist a boulder at all, and were smashed into meat patties. The black-level generals could only make some of the boulders shift their landing positions, and could not smash them.
The tragic experience of failed attempts was vivid. These boulders were not something that ordinary generals could resist with their internal force.
Like a meteorite, it hit the city wall hard, constantly suppressing the soldiers guarding the city on the edge of the city wall, making it difficult for them to use the city defense materials to attack the soldiers attacking the city.
The boulder hit the city wall violently, and after a bang, the solid city wall trembled slightly. Where the boulder hit, the broken stones flew and splashed, and a huge stone cave appeared.
Some boulders smashed into the crowd, which was even more bloody and brutal, causing the soldiers guarding the city to tremble in their hearts, and the clothes under the armor on their backs were soaked with cold sweat.
Arrow rain, rocks, hot oil, raging fire, and other common situations in siege battles all appeared.
The screaming and wailing soldiers were constantly moved down the city wall with the help of their comrades medical soldiers, and then new soldiers were replenished to resist the enemy's offensive!
The hysterical generals passed orders layer by layer, constantly commanding the soldiers defending the city to hold on to this wave of brutal offensive.
In the high tower of the city on the west wall, Yan Baihu, a loyal general under Xu Zhao, was wearing armor and helmet, holding a sharp weapon, constantly staring at the battlefield and the enemy's army, and constantly thinking about how to defeat the enemy.
The enemy army on the opposite side, today, launched an offensive that was as brutal as a hungry wolf pouncing on a sheep, and used all means to attack the city.
Behind the catapults lined up, there were even more powerful siege crossbows, which Yan Baihu could see clearly.
The metal behemoth with a cold and cold light was more ferocious than these catapults!
The damage caused by the boulders could still be roughly controlled, while those shiny siege crossbows, whether in terms of crossbow arrow speed, accuracy, lethality, burst speed and other attributes, far surpassed the catapults.
Even Yan Baihu himself could not be completely sure that he could completely resist these powerful crossbows! It's just that the attributes of these siege crossbows were covered up, and he couldn't detect them.
Wang Lang on the opposite side should have a backhand! Yan Baihu felt a little uneasy!
Sure enough, the uneasiness in Yan Baihu's heart suddenly surged as the catapult in front slowly retreated, and when the siege crossbows came forward, it turned into fear.
Because the attributes of those siege crossbows had been detected by him.
"Group attack crossbow carts? ! ! How is it possible? How could Wang Lang, this thief, have such a powerful siege crossbow cart? ! This is a ground-level siege crossbow cart! We don't have it in Nanzhao State, so how could a small county magistrate have it? Wang Lang, this thief, was hiding deep, and in this final battle, he broke out in one fell swoop! I was careless!" Yan Baihu stared with his tiger eyes, like a dead fish eye.
After the discussion, the lord of Qinglong City, the generals, and the counselors moved the main catapults and crossbow carts to the south and east walls to resist the powerful Cao Cao and Sun Jian!
The west wall simply used ordinary city defense materials to resist the enemy's momentum. However, Wang Lang, who has always been underestimated, hid so deeply.
After the appearance of the row of hideous metal monsters that were one zhang wide, high, and three zhang long, the defenders on the wall were also shocked, and a trace of horror appeared on their faces involuntarily.
There are at least a hundred siege crossbow carts in this row. If they are fired continuously regardless of the cost, they will definitely cause huge casualties to the defenders on the wall.
"Shoot! Shoot!! Aim at those crossbow carts! All the generals, no matter basic generals or other generals, ignore other things and shoot with all your strength to explode those crossbow carts!" Yan Baihu knew the power of these metal monsters, and roared the order, which resounded throughout the city wall!
After hearing the order, the archers and generals in various positions pulled the full moon bowstrings fiercely and aimed at the row of siege crossbow carts.
Like a black torrent of arrows, it cut through the void and rushed away with a hope of the soldiers defending the city.
All the soldiers and generals who could shoot arrows on the city wall moved in full force following Yan Baihu's angry order!
...
Wang Lang on the opposite side saw every move of Yan Baihu and calculated his reaction. There was a smile of understanding on the corner of his mouth!
He turned his head slightly and told Shi A beside him: "General Shi, after the first wave of violent crossbow arrows are fired and a space is cleared on the city wall, it's your turn to make the final move!"
"Yes!"
...
Yan Baihu's strategy was actually quite wise. He destroyed the crossbow carts at the first opportunity. However, the wave-like rain of arrows, after breaking through the void, only hit a silver-white shield.
It turned out that Wang Lang had been prepared and used mysterious props to form a solid shield to protect these crossbow carts.
When the rain of arrows attacked, the silver shield suddenly appeared, like a strong shield, resisting all the arrows.
"Clang!~~~" The sound of collisions spread.
After countless arrows were resisted by the shield, a black arrow wall was slowly formed in front of the siege crossbow cart!
Seeing such a scene, Yan Baihu's heart trembled, and the horror in his heart slowly climbed up his face!
And at this moment, the prepared siege crossbow cart finally showed its ferocious fangs.
The thick crossbow arrows like lightning, with a faint fluorescence, bombarded a remote place on the right side of the west wall. The soldiers on this wall, like tofu, could not resist at all, and a large open space appeared in an instant!
Yan Baihu looked at the scene with anger in his heart, but when a mighty general suddenly appeared in that area, Yan Baihu's heart trembled again.
Today, it seems to be the end of the world!
...
When the western wall underwent a huge change, Lin Mu rushed to the northern wall like lightning and found that there were few defenders here. The northern wall was also quiet and fell into a strange calm.
After a little observation, Lin Mu left the northern wall and rushed to the west. Lin Mu rushed to the west because this wall was quite close to the current location, while the eastern wall was farther away.
When Lin Mu came to the western wall, he saw a horrifying scene from afar: a young general, holding a long sword, cut off Yan Baihu's head alive!
Seeing this scene, Lin Mu's frown deepened.
I didn't expect that Yan Baihu, a historical general, didn't die in his hands. What a pity!
The main strategic goal is the Azure Dragon Divine Order and other treasures, but Lin Mu also has other small strategies, such as conquering historical celebrities, killing historical generals, collecting captives, harvesting various resources, etc., because this is the only way to greatly enhance the strength of his own side!
Lin Mu's Dantian's internal force moved, spreading to his eyes, like an extraordinary eagle eye, imprinting the appearance of the young general in his mind.
"Hey, who is this general? I haven't seen him! But he can kill Yan Baihu so easily, so he must be strong! Is he a hidden historical general?"
Lin Mu's heart was filled with surprise!
