Chapter 1255
PS: Chapter Anti-theft, corrected tomorrow morning………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
However, once the siege car is launched, it is too difficult to not attract the attention of the Bingzhou army. After all, when this huge thing that is several feet high appears, it feels like it stands out. Unless the Bingzhou army is blind, it will not be seen.
Sure enough, as soon as the five siege cars appeared on the battlefield, the catapults that had already been silent suddenly shot up like a rush. It was obvious that the Bingzhou army had already arranged it in advance. Once the siege cars appeared, they would use the catapults to block them. They should never be allowed to easily approach the city wall.
Although Yang Hu was concerned about the city wall, he never ignored the movements of Sima Jun in the distance. Moreover, his position was condescending at this moment. He just needed to glance at the corner of his eyes to see clearly, and it would not delay any trouble.
The Sima army was blocked from siege, so it should have a new move. Sure enough, Yang Hu had just had this idea, and the Sima army's siege car was dispatched.
"Attack the rushing cars and beat me hard!" Yang Hu pointed to the siege lane that was slowly advancing forward in the distance.
After the two sides fell into close combat, the catapult car was relatively quiet, and the catapults became a little idle. At this time, Yang Hu's order came down, and the pitchers immediately became excited and began to attack the siege car desperately.
The target of the siege car is very large, even larger than the catapult car that was destroyed before. Fighting such a large target is more convenient for the Bingzhou army.
The only thing that makes people feel inconvenient is that the siege car is not a fixed target, it is constantly moving. Although its movement speed is not as fast as the siege car, the catapult strikes the moving target is a weakness. You must concentrate and predict the route of its travel before you can hit it.
Dozens of catapults gathered fire at the same time and launched an attack on the five siege cars. Stone bullets roared over the city wall and smashed towards Sima Jun's position.
Of course, Chen Qian did not dare to put all five siege cars together. Although he set out at the same time, the five cars were not on the same horizontal line, but had the largest distance between them in front, back, left and right, and used a roundabout way to move forward, deliberately not taking a straight line to prevent them from being locked by the catapult.
The stone bomb passed through the sky and drew out parabolas. It was quite powerful during the fall. Even if it hit the open space, it could create a large pit.
Many stone bullets fell down by the siege car, and it made a loud noise when it landed, which made people feel very worried. However, at such a long distance and the siege car was constantly moving, so it was not easy for the catapult to hit it.
On the contrary, the Sima Bing, who was in front, behind and left and right of the siege car, suffered a disaster. Their area was relatively large, and if the castle cart fell, it would easily hit the soldiers. Even if the stone bullets jumped and rolled on the ground, the secondary damage caused was not something that flesh and blood could bear.
However, Chen Qian and Sima Shi did not pay attention to the casualties of these soldiers. The only thing they were staring at was the siege cars. The slow movement of the siege cars made them very worried, but they didn't know whether these siege cars could safely pass through the range of the catapults.
With a "click", a stone bullet fell from the sky and hit a siege car impartially. This was the first of the five destroyed siege car. The big stone bullet penetrated directly from the roof to the bottom of the siege car. The siege car burst, and all the soldiers hidden in the siege car were spared. They were either hit by the stone bullet or died by flying wooden blocks. The entire siege car instantly turned into a pile of waste.
Chen Qian and Sima Shi's faces suddenly became serious. It seemed that the Bingzhou Army's catapults shot very accurately. With such a powerful hit rate, I don't know if the other four siege cars had hope of breaking through their blockade.
After the first siege car was destroyed, the Sima army became obviously nervous. They tried their best to push the siege car forward and fight, hoping to rush to the city as soon as possible and avoid the attack of the siege car.
The Bingzhou Army also significantly accelerated the pace of attack, equipped with catapult cars and serial flying stone cars to take action at the same time, and even the serial crossbow car joined the ranks of attack. Although the serial crossbow car could not destroy the siege car even if it hit, it could still play a certain role in delaying the advancement of the siege car.
Two more siege cars were hit by stone bullets and turned into two piles of waste. The situation suddenly became severe. The people who watched the battle were all in their throats, and they were all holding cold sweats. All their hopes were placed on the last two remaining snatch cars.
At this moment, the stone bombs became even more dense. The catapults that had originally scattered attacks on the five siege cars are now all concentrated on these two cars. It is conceivable how much pressure these two siege cars are under.
Fortunately, they are now close to the edge of the range of the catapult range, and they only need to work harder to enter the attack dead end of the catapult.
However, the Bingzhou Army's catapult car also entered the crazy attack mode, and stone bullets roared over, and some even fell down while wiping the car body, making people sweat in cold sweat.
The fourth siege car was also attacked, and two stone bombs hit it at the same time, causing the slag to completely break into pieces.
However, the last siege car successfully advanced to an area that could not be covered by the catapult. Although it was hit by the crossbow car three times, three long crossbow arrows were inserted directly on the body of the car, causing the body of the car to be slightly damaged, but it was not hit by any stone bullets and finally reached the bottom of Jiexiu City without any danger.
One of the five siege cars could escape from the Bingzhou Army's rock bullets. The chance of survival was indeed lower, but it was already extremely lucky to not have the entire army destroyed. Anyway, only one siege car was needed to attack the city gate.
The only remaining siege car drove forward all the way, and the Sima army around it made way for it. After reaching the location at the gate of the city, the siege car did not pause at all. It directly crossed the moat that had just been filled with sandbags and rushed towards the gate of Jiexiu City.
The attack on the other side of the city wall cannot break the situation. Now Chen Qian and Sima Shi have placed all their hopes on this remaining siege car. They hope to break through the south gate of Jiexiu City with the powerful impact of this siege car. In this way, Sima's army can enter Jiexiu City through the city gate and take down the city.
