Chapter 468

    "Go! Brothers, go with me!"


    The drums of war rose. Ouyang''s vanguard troops no longer had no fighting spirit as before, but fought bravely and rushed to Juhe gate with red eyes under the leadership of the vanguard general.


    "Fire!"


    Zheng Yuanyun was also unreserved. When Ouyang had just issued the charge order, he was ready on his side.


    At the moment, the vanguard army rushed and roared in the face of a dark head, and Zheng Yuanyun''s right hand was also drawn down.


    Boom!


    The head of the city shook, and the power of hundreds of stone catapults was so great that even some unstable defenders almost fell to the head of the city.


    This time, Zheng Yuanyun had no reservation. The throwing stone was drenched with fire oil and ignited in advance. This time, hundreds of flying fire meteors appeared in the sky, emitting thick smoke, and went straight to the most densely populated place.


    Compared with the previous hierarchical attack, Zheng Yuanyun let all the catapults in the city open fire this time. What didn''t disappoint him was that Ouyang acted vigorously. As expected, there was no longer just a touch and go as before, but rushed up against the gunfire like crazy.


    Avoid!


    Just as the city roared, the prepared vanguard general waved the flag, and the seemingly disorganized rush immediately changed the formation, but he predicted the enemy''s stone throwing point and avoided the most dense stone throwing point with dodging action as much as possible.


    Even so, it still failed to dodge all the pitching stones, but at least it also minimized the casualties.


    This also let Zheng Yuanyun see that Ouyang''s vigorous implementation of the stone throwing offensive seemed to have no way to him, but it was just a layer of camouflage.


    But what is he pretending? Why?


    For a time, Zheng Yuanyun, who was in the war, had no chance to think about the key orifices carefully, and this dodge did not exceed his expectations.


    Originally, in the siege, although the soldiers who charged in front often suffered heavy casualties, they tried to avoid the artillery fire and continue to rush towards the city gate. This is a normal siege routine.


    Zheng Yuanyun focused on the war situation at the moment. For the time being, he didn''t think about the changes before and after Ouyang''s strict implementation of the troops. Seeing that his first round of stone throwing was killing, but it didn''t have the desired effect, he was not in a hurry. While ordering the archers to prepare, he also asked the stone throwing machine troops to prepare for the next round of salvo.


    In the first round, he was just trying to see how Ouyang''s siege was different from the previous one. At present, he has made a judgment. The projection mode of the catapult should be adjusted. It is no longer a one-time bombardment of all shells, but a continuous attack mode with a sense of hierarchy.


    Zheng Yuanyun is dispatching and commanding, Ouyang is strict, and there is no idle there.


    The vanguard has entered the attack range of juhecheng. Although that round of Volley still brought some damage, it is obviously still within the tolerance range of Ouyang''s execution.


    Seeing that more than 100000 people have spread under Juhe City, Ouyang, who looks serious, is another big move.


    In the last time, the stone siege tower, which was only illuminated but not used, was pushed to the front row.


    This is the unconventional siege tower that once puzzled Zheng Yuanyun. The tower is not only full of arrow holes for archers, but also equipped with a ferocious catapult on the top of the tower.


    A hundred or so siege towers were pushed out, and they didn''t mean to stop. They pushed directly to the front line.


    Under each siege tower, there were hundreds of people around. They shouted, pushed back and pulled forward. The seemingly heavy siege tower did not move slowly. In the empty space where the stone thrower troops at the head of the city were silent, it had been pushed to the farthest crater that the enemy stone thrower could hit.


    This is the farthest attack distance of the other party!


    This is also the farthest attack distance of these towering siege catapults calculated by Zheng Yuanyun for Ouyang!


    The siege tower is almost as high as Juhe city wall. That is to say, where the stone throwing function at the head of Juhe city can hit, Ouyang''s siege and stone throwing tower can hit.


    This opportunity was spelled out with the lives of the brothers. It was almost unnecessary for Ouyang to give orders. As soon as they reached the farthest attack distance, hundreds of siege towers shook together. The soldiers pushing the siege tower gnawed their teeth, exposed their green tendons on their faces and arms, and almost exhausted their strength, It was not easy to dissipate the anti earthquake force fed back from the siege tower, ensure the stability of the siege tower, and prevent large deviation from the shells fired by the catapult.


    Therefore, under Zheng Yuanyun''s wide eyed gaze, there are dense stones in the sky. Fortunately, the siege tower is always a wooden structure. In order to avoid unnecessary losses, Ouyang''s strict implementation did not make the shells of the catapult stained with fire oil, but just a pure physical attack.


    "Attention!"


    Zheng Yuanyun was not the only one who found that the enemy threw stones. On the side of the stone throwing machine force, the general in charge of commanding and looking out immediately wanted to crack his eyes and almost roared out a warning.


    The soldiers didn''t dare to ignore each other''s attack. Seeing that the stone throwing was getting closer and closer, they hurried to drill into the women''s wall with their heads in their arms. At least they avoided this round first.


    So listen


    Boom!


    Boom, boom!


    It seemed as if a strong earthquake suddenly broke out at the head of Juhe City, and hundreds of stones came together. Although it was too far away, only a few of them fell directly on the head of the city, causing some damage to the garrison soldiers, but most of the stones did not fail, and almost all of them blew on the city wall.


    As a transit hub, Juhe city''s urban defense construction is not poor. This round of stone throwing did not directly collapse the city wall or blow out several holes, but it also broke countless cracks.


    Zheng Yuanyun was also shocked into a cold sweat. The last time he saw Ouyang''s siege and stone throwing towers.


    But at that time, his troops were at a disadvantage and could not destroy the other party''s unconventional weapons. Secondly, although this siege tower was a threat to the city wall, it could not be approached at all except firing two guns at a long distance.


    The siege tower equipped with a catapult is extremely heavy. Even if more soldiers are sent to help push and pull below, it is impossible to compare the speed with the real arrow tower siege tower.


    If Ouyang dares to push the siege tower forward again, he will have to bear the second round of artillery prepared by his city head immediately.


    But even so, when the other party threw stones at the city wall, Zheng Yuanyun felt the shock. He couldn''t help but pay more attention to these siege towers.


    At the same time, taking advantage of the opportunity created by our own siege tower, more than 100000 vanguard troops made a crazy breakthrough.
