I was kicked out by Sun Quan, and I turned to Cao thief

Chapter 245 The Xiongnu and Xianbei jointly attacked the city
The [-] troops of the Xiongnu and Wuhuan rushed towards the walls of Liucheng like ants.

Yu Jin still faced it calmly, without any panic.

He Yujin followed Prime Minister Cao to travel north and south and fought for most of his life.

Today's scene, to Jin, was just a small scene.

Yu Jin raised his hand and gave an order: "The catapult is ready!"

"The ballista is ready!"

Following Yu Jin's order, the soldiers in charge of slingshots and ballistas were already in full swing.

"Reload!" Immediately afterwards, Yu Jin gave another order.

The catapult was filled with boulders the size of a human head, while the ballista was filled with huge crossbow bolts the size of a baby's arm.

If this thing hits someone, the safekeeper will only call out once, and there is no chance of calling out a second time.

The best range for a ballista is seven hundred paces, for a catapult five hundred paces.

At a distance of less than [-] steps, the power of ballistas and catapults will be greatly weakened.

However, within the range of five hundred steps, Cao Jun also has various foot crossbows, hand crossbows, bows and arrows and so on.

During the Qin Dynasty, Qin Nu was already famous all over the world.

After so many years of development, these long-range weapons are far more advanced than those in the Qin Dynasty.

"Seven hundred steps!" At this time, the soldier in charge of observing the distance shouted loudly.

"Launch!" Yu Jin swung his knife, and the soldier in charge of the ballista immediately started turning the winch.

Immediately afterwards, in the blink of an eye, countless crossbow arrows as thick as a baby's arm shot out.

Even an ordinary iron shield might not be able to block this kind of giant arrow shot from a ballista.

The Huns and Xianbei hardly had any decent shields, and the soldiers in front had nothing more than some rattan shields and wooden shields in their hands.

A shield like this is good enough to block a stream of arrows, but facing this kind of giant crossbow bolts fired from a ballista, it is exactly the same as paper.

These giant crossbow bolts passed through the soldiers in the front row, and then, like piercing candied haws, pierced several soldiers together, and then firmly nailed to the ground.

A soldier pierced by this kind of crossbow arrow will immediately have a huge blood hole on his body, and there is no chance of survival at all.

"what!"

"Damn Han people, the weapons are so sophisticated!" Yu Fuluo said through gritted teeth.

The manufacture of this kind of ballista is very cumbersome. The mechanisms and gears here are all made by masters with extremely exquisite skills.

Even this kind of ballista in Cao Cao's army is very precious. There are only more than 100 such ballistas in the entire Liucheng.

Among them, eighty were arranged in the center of the city gate, on the walls on the left and right sides, and there were only twenty or thirty on one side.

Therefore, in this first round of attack, it is natural that the Huns who were responsible for attacking the center of the city gate suffered the most losses.

At this time, Yu Fuluo was no longer thankful for having just won the boxing game and obtained the right to attack the city gate.

However, now that the war has started, it is impossible for the Huns to shrink back because of the hundreds of ballistas in this area.

Yu Fuluo drew out the scimitar at his waist, and gave an order with a loud roar.

"Send the order to go forward for me."

"The first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, ten beauties from the Han people will be promoted to three ranks."

After Yu Fuluo gave the order, the messenger immediately galloped through the army on horseback, shouting: "Shan Yu has ordered that the first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, ten beauties from the Han people, and promoted to three ranks." .”

"Chan Yu ordered that the first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, ten beauties from the Han people will be promoted by three ranks."

"Chan Yu ordered that the first person to climb the city wall will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold, ten beauties from the Han people will be promoted by three ranks."

As the saying goes, under the great reward, there must be a brave man.

Originally, the Huns were still a little afraid of being shot by a ballista salvo.

However, as soon as this order was conveyed, the fear in their hearts disappeared immediately.

But everyone has a fluke mentality, and these soldiers thought in their hearts that the one who died must not be themselves, and the one who received the reward might be themselves.

Under the serious injury of the Xiongnu Shanyu Fuluo, these soldiers of the Huns bravely took the lead and rushed towards Liucheng without fear of life and death.

After rushing through the range of the first round of ballistas, there is also the covering design of the second round of catapults.

The manufacturing process of ballista is very difficult, so the number is relatively rare.

However, the manufacturing process of the catapult is very simple.

To put it bluntly, this catapult is a slingshot magnified countless times.

Just a few carpenters in the army can make a catapult.

On the walls of Liucheng, there are thousands of catapults densely packed.

"Slingshot, give me free fire!"

"Use a stone to hit these bastards hard!" Yu Jin gave an order.

At this time, the soldiers in charge of the catapults couldn't wait.

Give an order, and in an instant, countless boulders are thrown down by the catapult.

In addition to throwing boulders, these catapults can also throw a special kind of ammunition.

This kind of special ammunition is to put sulfur, kerosene and other fire starters in the wine jar, and then leave the fuse inside.

Between launches, light the fuse so that when the wine jar is flying in the air, the fuse will ignite the kerosene and sulfur inside.

In an instant, the sky seemed to be raining fire.

Most of the ballista attacks just now fell on the Huns.

Now, the attack of the catapult was covered by the rain and dew.

The Huns and Xianbei were all burned, and they were called crying fathers and mothers.

After a round of covering shots from the catapult, at least the [-] allied forces of the Huns and Xianbei suffered nearly [-] casualties.

In addition to the men and horses shot by the ballista before, this is still several hundred steps away from the city wall. The [-] allied forces of the Xiongnu and Xianbei have killed or injured more than [-].

At this time, the morale of the Xiongnu army was somewhat low.

"Father, I will personally go to supervise the battle!" Yu Fuluo's son Liu Bao begged for orders.

Yu Fuluo is a reckless man, but his son Liu Bao is different.

His son is not like him, on the contrary, he looks a little like Tadun.

His son Liu Biao, like Taton, likes reading very much, and he also admires the culture of the big man.

Liu Bao is familiar with the art of war and strategy, and also understands the culture of the Han people very well. He even changed his name to a Chinese name.

That is Liu Bao.

Yu Fuluo also liked his son very much. Yu Fuluo himself often said that Tadun could lead Wuhuan to prosperity.

Then, his son Liu Bao can also lead the Huns to restore the glory of their ancestors.

"My son can go to supervise the battle, but you must be extremely careful!" Yu Fuluo told his son.

Liu Bao quickly responded, "Father, don't worry, the Han people's catapults and crossbow carts have already been used. As long as our army stays in chaos, it will be easy to deal with."
