Chapter 300: Divine Might (3)\\r
This time, the catapult that bombarded Yumen Pass was even more terrifying. A huge boulder weighing 200 to 300 kilograms fell from the sky and crushed the general guarding the city into a lump of flesh!
A stone fell on the gate tower, and the horn collapsed. shock!
The new trebuchets used by the monster army are more powerful and have a longer range. In addition, several demons will join the siege vehicles, and the dense and extremely destructive meteorites will violently attack the city walls!
Prosperity!
Cracks appeared on the city wall of Yumen Pass, and the city bricks that were originally wrapped in rammed earth cracked and fell. Even the guards of the city wall felt their legs trembling!
Regular trebuchets aren't that scary.
The Xiluo army guarding the Yumen Pass soon discovered that the Yaojin army had replaced their trebuchets!
This kind of trebuchet cannot be manufactured yet, because the Han Empire does not have corresponding blueprints.
Xu Fengnian seemed to think of the corresponding large-scale siege equipment, and his face immediately turned pale.
In the era of cold weapons, the imperial army of monsters and beasts besieged the fortress Xiangyang, unable to attack for a long time, manufactured a large-scale counterweight trebuchet, that is, the Xiangyang Cannon, successfully captured Fancheng, and forced the defenders of Xiangyang to surrender.
The Xiangyang Cannon is already the pinnacle of the cold weapon era, and it still belongs to the category of stone cannon.
If you want to surpass the Xiangyang cannon, you must build a real cannon, the original bronze cannon.
Under Yumen Pass, the siege weapon used by the Yao army to bombard Yumen Pass is probably the legendary Xiangyang Cannon!
"If it is really Xiangyangpao, we will be under more pressure...`"..."
Xu Fengnian knew what the appearance of Xiangyang Pao meant.
The defenders must withstand the bombardment of Xiangyang artillery fire and the huge psychological pressure it brought, and guard Yumen Pass.
Not only that, the Xiangyang artillery blew up all the towers, turrets, and battlements, and the soldiers were killed. And that's not the worst.
If the city wall is bombarded by Xiangyang cannons, the demon army swarms, and there is no city wall to defend, the worst case is that Yumen Pass can be defended? I have to say two things.
"Build thirty Xiangyang cannons and destroy Yumen Pass.
Alihaiya, the general of the Yaozu army, witnessed the power of the Xiangyang cannons and almost destroyed the towering gate towers in the city. Satisfied with the performance of the cannon, he commissioned the artisans of the Arab Empire to build the Xiangyang Cannon.
The Xiangyang cannon under the city gradually took shape, the number of siege equipment continued to increase, and the defensive situation at Yumen Pass became increasingly critical.
Even if the boulder thrown by the Yangyang cannon does not kill him, it will seriously injure the general.
When one of Han Sui's generals led the cavalry to patrol the city defense, he bumped into a rock weighing 200 jin and died on the spot.
The Xiangyang cannon caused a huge psychological shadow to the defenders.
Even if the demon archer piled up a hill and tried to shoot arrows at the defender, as long as the defender had a shield, the demon archer's arrows could be blocked.
However, it is useless to defend with a shield in front of the boulder shot by the Yangyang Cannon. Boulders are much more powerful than normal crossbows.
"`" The Xiangyang cannon has shaken the morale of the army and must be burned (Zhao's). There are more than 20 Xiangyang cannons underground in the city, and it is difficult to maintain them if they continue to develop. Go to Yumen Pass...
Xu Fengnian summoned a group of generals, Fenghuang, Zhang He, Juyi, Xie Ai, Yang Jian, Xiang Yu and other reinforcement generals were all under Xu Fengnian's jurisdiction at this time.
Temujin stayed behind and not only sent Crassus' Roman legion to support him, but also brought Arab army craftsmen who could build Xiangyang cannons to attack Yumen Pass. Xu Fengnian had no choice but to set fire to the Xiangyang cannon.
