For such a large Jingyang City, there are only a thousand defenders, and most of them are old and weak. There are not enough people to stand in all four corners. How can we defend it?

No matter how hard the city sergeants worked, how could they compare with the huge Han army below the city?

Let's look at the Han army. They only broke through Wushi City yesterday, but today the army has reached the foot of Jingyang City.

As soon as his genius dawned, he began to build some kind of large-scale equipment.

At this time, besides being used for siege, what else can this kind of equipment do?

General Hu shouted angrily several times and found that the arrows fired at the city were sparse and weak, as if the soldiers who were shooting arrows had not eaten breakfast.

Only then did he suddenly realize that the atmosphere at the top of the city was not right. He looked around, either raising his head and saying nothing, or looking to the side, but no one was looking at him.

He seemed to understand something.

All the soldiers of Jingyang City were left in Wushi City, and their majesty was completely lost.

What I said yesterday is still in my ears. Today, Shu captives are approaching the city. Who will trust me again?

It's just that the current situation doesn't allow him to think too much.

"If you lose Wushi City, if you can help defend Jingyang, you can still pay for it. If you lose Jingyang again, what will you do? What about your parents, wife, and children?"

General Hu looked at the general of Wushi City and threatened.

The guard general of Wuzhi City gritted his teeth, cupped his fists and said, "General, I understand, now I will make arrangements to defend the city."

After saying that, he turned around and strode away.

Guan Ji looked at the arrows being fired from the top of Jingyang City. A cold light flashed in her eyes. She looked at the closed city gate and ordered:

"Let the sergeant who shouted come back. There is no need to shout anymore. Also, let Wen Shi from the engineering battalion come to see me."

After a while, Wen Shi came over sweating profusely: "I've seen the general."

"When will the siege crossbows and siege ladders be ready?"

The engineering camp was regarded as a heavy supply camp, and it also had to help clean up Wushi City, so most of them stayed behind, one day behind.

Only a small part followed.

This small group carries siege crossbows.

This time is a preview of the future Guanzhong War by the Qiang Guards. The improved stone cannons and the siege crossbows that have passed the test will be put into actual combat.

Stone cannons are too heavy and difficult to assemble, requiring a long time to prepare.

However, the key accessories of the siege crossbow can be prepared in advance, as long as the base is built in front of the formation.

Of course, because this was the first time that the siege crossbow was put into use, Guan Ji did not expect it to play a key role.

In this siege, we still need to look at the siege ladder, and it is a simple siege ladder.

If the Cao thieves were very determined to defend the city, the casualties of the Wudang camp might be relatively high.

But for Guan Ji, a general who is not compassionate and cares about the lives of his soldiers has never been a good general.

"Go back to the general. It will be ready before dinner."

"That means we have to wait another night, it's too slow!"

"Yes, General Mo will go and speed up immediately."

Wen Shi wiped his sweat, not sure if it was because he was sweating from working or something else.

Feng Junhou treats people well, and General Guan is more majestic and powerful than Feng Junhou.

Standing in front of him, one can't help but feel pressure.

If others don't know the details, they would rather believe that the person in front of them is the real prince.

"Go quickly, I will attack the city an hour before dinner."

"promise."

"Send the order and distribute the candy and grains to the Wudang camp so that they can prepare to attack the city."

"promise."

Sugar is a good thing that makes people feel happy and excited.

At the same time, it can quickly replenish energy.

In addition, in this era, the output of brown sugar was not high, and it was controlled by the Xinghan Hui. A lot of brown sugar was made into dry food, which was used as an important military material for protecting the Qiang captain's mansion.

The rest that flows into the market can only be obtained by wealthy people.

Once a large amount of dry food mixed with brown sugar is taken out, it is much more useful than those alcoholic and meaty foods.

That would be the equivalent of an injection of feverish stimulants.

This stimulant is not only more effective than alcohol and meat, but it is also extremely convenient to carry.

Instead of killing cattle, sheep, and horses for meat, they directly gave them sugar and grain, which is enough to show Guan Ji's determination to capture Jingyang City immediately.

The sun is in the west and the heat has dissipated.

The Han army finally pulled back the curtain that had been covering the city, and then the siege crossbows lined up in a row finally appeared in the eyes of the Wei army.

When the people at the top of the city saw the huge ballista, many of them lost their blood.

Those officials who were summoned urgently had their legs weak.

"Block...block...block the city gate, quickly, go and block the city gate!"

Although General Hu had never seen such a large ballista, it didn't mean that he didn't know what it meant.

The city gate covered with copper may be able to withstand one, two, three or four blows, but it certainly cannot withstand continuous impacts.

The guard general of Wuzhi City ran down the city wall, crawling on the ground: "Hurry, come with me!"

That's too late……

The siege crossbows that have been debugged have begun to officially aim at their respective targets.

"Bang!"

The hammer hit hard, and the huge arrows and spears suddenly shot out, and then with a muffled "plop" sound, they penetrated deeply into the city wall made of loess.

At the same time, two or three more directly hit the city gate, making a huge noise.

Except for a small part of the siege crossbows that were aimed at the city gates, most of them seemed to just shoot at the city walls aimlessly.

Soon, the city walls were filled with huge crossbow arrows.

Guan Ji looked at the sky and saw that the sun was already starting to set.

"Siege the city!"

The drums sounded, and the soldiers of the Wudang Battalion began to rush towards the city. The crossbowmen continued to fire at the top of the city, and the dense arrow feathers instantly covered the sky.

The people at the back lowered their heads and rushed forward with their ladders in hand.

"Crazy, crazy!"

General Hu was trembling when he saw the Han army rushing to the bottom of the wall and starting to climb up with the giant arrows stuck in the wall.

Seeing that it was getting dark, the Han army actually started to attack the city. It seemed that they had no time left for themselves. General Hu was extremely anxious.

"Let go of the stones, let go of the arrows!"

"Quick, quick, why don't you let go?"

The Han army was not crazy, but General Hu was going crazy.

The impact of the huge ballista is equally huge.

Some people in the city who have not been trained have been frightened.

Before they could react, Wudang camp's arrows covered the entire city, and then a large wave of people fell down on the city.

When the people at the top of the city began to fight back, they heard a huge cheer coming from somewhere:

"The city gate is open!"

"General, it's bad, someone opened the city gate, the Han army, the Han army rushed into the city!"

The bodyguard ran over and shouted loudly.

Upon hearing the news, the city's defenders, whose morale was already extremely low, suddenly went into chaos.

"Isn't the city gate blocked? How could it be opened? Who opened it?"

General Hu shouted loudly, "This is impossible!"

Han troops have begun to appear in the city below, and the impossibility has become a fact.

I don’t know who shouted: “Stay behind closed doors!”

So the officials at the head of the city cried out for their fathers and called their mothers and dispersed.

Guan Ji, who personally supervised the battle, was stunned as she watched the soldiers of Wudang Battalion work hard to climb halfway, and then the city gate was suddenly opened.
Chapter completed!
