Chapter 425

The brief peace was finally over.

Xiao Wanwan stretched out her hand and pulled out an arrow that was buried in the pillar. The arrow was short and narrow, but the strength of the burst was astonishing.

Chang Yi protected her and went back to the General's Mansion, and then went to dispatch troops to fight the battle. Everyone got busy, leaving Xiao Wanwan alone in the room.

She turned on the system without haste, and spent a high amount of system currency to purchase the plot.

The result was not much different from what she had expected. Liang Guo was so confident that he had already mastered the structure of the Liannu and produced it in large quantities. Liang Guo is naturally willing to compete for the support of a race that is proficient in animal taming.

Xiao Wanwan put on a light armor, pulled out a horse from the stable, and galloped to the guard tower.

The soldiers of Liang State pushed the ladders to prepare for a strong attack on the city. The soldiers of Zhao State held the shields in their hands, resisted the flying bows and arrows, and pushed down the ladders with their spears.

"Oh!"

The entire city tower shook.

A huge stone was thrown from the opposite side and hit the city wall heavily, breaking a gap immediately.

The situation suddenly became passive.

General Qin was in a state of desperation, and naturally he was not in a good mood. Although Xiao Wanwan helped out a few nights ago, in General Qin's eyes, the impression of a weak woman was still not erased.

Originally, there are some things to take care of now, so how can I separate my mind to take care of Xiao Wanwan?
His two thick, long and thick black eyebrows stood upright, and his whole body was fierce and unspeakable: "I also ask you to leave quickly, this place is dangerous!"

Xiao Wanwan took a leisurely look at the trebuchet under the city tower. Even though it was near her, she didn't panic at all when the dust from the wall was shaken off just now. She didn't panic, and asked, "General Qin, Do we have that item?"

There are things like trebuchets in Lingshui City, but this kind of war has not happened for many years, and the trebuchets have long been dusted, and the mechanism parts are not as flexible as before.

Catapults are mainly used to attack cities and smash walls. Now that Lingshui City is on the defensive side, it is really inappropriate to use them against soldiers.

"Yes, it's just..."

"General Qin," Xiao Wanwan smiled softly, "This warlord wants to use a trebuchet."

Her words were firm, leaving no room for rejection.

General Qin thought in his heart that as long as Xiao Wanwan could be sent away, it would be fine to take out the trebuchet and give her a hard time.

So a few people were assigned to move the large machine out of the warehouse.

The trebuchet looked bulky, as tall as two adult men. The base frame was made of thick rough wood, with a thick and long wooden pole on top of it, which was fixed with bearing shafts.

Xiao Wanwan looked around. The trebuchet used the principle of leverage. A long piece of wood was divided into two parts by the bearing shaft. The short part was hung with a thick and heavy solid iron block. An iron basket was made to hold the thrown stones.

As long as one end is fixed on the base and the other end is hooked on the long wood, when the hanging iron block falls, the stones placed in the long end iron basket will be thrown out suddenly, destroying the city wall.

A few soldiers roughly cleaned the dust on the catapult, and Xiao Wanwan ordered: "Pour some oil on the bearing."

She will use this thing in a while.

The soldiers followed suit, and Xiao Wanwan asked, "What is its range?"
