Luo Xin looked at the archery tower. At this time, the archery tower was already full of prairie archers. Needless to say, these archers are all sharpshooters in the grassland.Each archery tower can accommodate fifty archers, and ten archery towers have five hundred archers.It seems that five hundred archers are not many, but what if all five hundred archers are marksmen?Everyone is holding three stone bows?
This is definitely a huge threat to Ming soldiers, a threat that can affect the battle situation!Five hundred sharpshooters occupy a favorable location, and they can completely suppress the soldiers of Ming Dynasty on the top of the city.

There are bigger threats!
That is ten siege vehicles!

The siege engine can drop huge boulders, which cannot be compared with the catapult. In this era, this is simply an irresistible threat.

"kill……"

More than [-] soldiers have come under the city wall, and a ladder is leaning against the city wall. The prairie soldiers hold the scimitar in their mouths, hold the ladder with both hands, and climb up quickly. The cavalry continued to shoot arrows towards the city, suppressing the Ming soldiers on the city wall.

"grown ups……"

"The siege engines and archery towers must be destroyed first!" Luo Xin waved his hand to stop Admiral Zhang's words: "Don't worry about the attacking Tartars with ballista soldiers and catapults, and destroy the siege engines and archery towers with your heart. I will give you a great credit.

Archers shoot, roll logs and rocks, and shield soldiers pay attention to protection! "

The attack and defense had already begun before the siege engines and archery towers were in place.Up and down the city, arrows come and go, and rolling trees and stones come down one after another.From time to time, grassland soldiers screamed and fell down from the ladder, and from time to time, Ming soldiers were shot by arrows on the city wall, and blood gushed out.

"My lord, the siege engine and the archery tower are about to be in place, you should leave first. Leave the battle to the commander of the last general, and the last general will guarantee to defend the capital."

"No! I'm standing right here!"

"My lord, it's in range!"

Admiral Li on the side had been watching the siege vehicles and the archery towers. Seeing that they were within range, he hurriedly reminded Luo Xin.Luo Xin looked up and saw that the siege engine had already started to twist. It would take a while to start throwing stones, but the grassland archers on the archery tower had already started to bend their bows and set their arrows.

"Ballistians, catapults, start attacking!" Luo Xin shouted immediately.

Immediately, more than 100 crossbow arrows shot out, and at the same time, stones also rose into the air, attacking in the opposite direction.

Crossbow arrows are much more accurate than catapults. More than 100 of the more than 70 crossbow arrows hit the siege vehicles and arrow towers, but the damage caused to the siege vehicles and arrow towers was not great. The crossbow bolts of the siege vehicle and the arrow tower nailed a dozen grassland soldiers near the siege vehicle and the arrow tower to the ground, and even shot to death three horses pulling the siege vehicle and the arrow tower.

This can't help but make Luo Xin feel disappointed. In fact, Luo Xin also knows very well that the destructive power of crossbow arrows on siege vehicles and archery towers is limited. The car caused fundamental damage, as for the damage to the watch tower, there was almost no damage.Only the catapult can cause fundamental damage if it can throw stones on the siege engine.

but……

The accuracy of the catapult is really bad. After the first round of shooting, the soldiers are adjusting the direction of the catapult through the first round of shooting.Luo Xin decisively sent an order:
"The crossbow chariot soldiers aimed their crossbow arrows at the Tartars on the archery tower, suppressed them, and ignored the siege engines. The catapults ignored the arrow towers, and attacked the siege engines with all their strength."

"Whoosh whoosh..."

The prairie shooters on the opposite arrow tower started to attack, and in just a split second, dozens of Ming soldiers fell down and died.

"My lord, please enter the corner tower!"

This time Luo Xin did not insist, and entered the turret without hesitation.Looking towards the battlefield through the turret, his brows were tightly wrinkled.

Originally, the [-] cavalrymen below the city kept shooting arrows and suppressed the Ming soldiers at the top of the city. Now they were suppressed by the prairie archers above the archery tower. Covered by shield hands, none of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had the ability to fight back. Even so, the defense power was greatly reduced. Seeing that the grassland soldiers were quickly approaching the top of the city along the ladder.

"Om..."

More than 100 crossbow carts were finally loaded with crossbow arrows again, aiming at the arrow tower and shooting away.The defense on the archery tower was pierced by crossbow arrows, shooting grassland archers one by one from the archery tower, and the crossbow arrows were inserted into the bodies of the grassland soldiers, leading them to fly out of the archery tower and fall towards the ground. Shoot, there are more than 30 prairie shooters to shoot and kill.But under the archery tower, immediately there were grassland archers climbing up to the archery tower to fill in the missing archers.

"Throw!"

At this moment, a loud shout came from under the city wall, and Luo Xin saw ten siege vehicles moving in his field of vision.

Immediately, countless huge stones soared into the sky and smashed towards the sky above the capital.

"Boom boom boom..."

The huge roar made the whole capital tremble.Countless Ming soldiers were knocked to the ground, and a soldier holding a shield was hit by a huge boulder, causing the shield to shatter in an instant, and his body was blown away.A soldier was smashed head-on by a boulder, and was smashed into a ball of flesh in an instant.

At this time, the hell on earth was replaced by the head of the capital city.The generals were dumbfounded, and panic spread on the city wall.Luo Xin couldn't bear it any longer, he knew that if he didn't stop the panic, the capital would fall easily in an instant.He strode out from the turret and shouted loudly:
"Don't panic, put down the barbed wire. Catapult, destroy the siege engine for me!"

The barbed wire had just been lowered, and grassland soldiers had already appeared on the top of the city!
"kill!"

The soldiers on the prairie jumped up to the top of the city excitedly. They didn't even see the barbed wire in front of them clearly.

On the other side, the ballista soldiers frantically controlled the ballista, and fired towards the archery tower at the fastest speed, suppressing the herbal shooters on the archery tower, constantly having the look of grasslands being shot through their bodies by the crossbow arrows, and brought them into the air, towards the archery tower. The ground screamed and fell.The catapult continued to correct the target, and finally several transmission vehicles hit a siege vehicle at the same time. In a burst of continuous explosions, the siege vehicle disintegrated, fell to the ground, and fell apart.

However, at the same time, the two catapults in the city were also hit by the boulders thrown in by the siege vehicles, and they were instantly torn apart. Several Ming soldiers died on the spot.
