The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 502 Independent thinking, large shield
"Have you forgotten what the adults told you during training?

It is impossible to completely predict what will happen on the battlefield during training.

When you encounter difficulties, you must think more and find ways to solve them.

This is what a general should do.

We cannot always rely on adults, but we must discuss and find solutions together. "Wang Dayong said in a deep voice.

They stationed themselves five miles away from the city wall and discussed together how to attack the city.

"It's a pity that there are no trees here. If there were trees, we would cut down some wood to block the front.

It should be able to withstand the opponent's crossbow.

Put the artillery in the back and push it into range to bombard the wall. "Someone suggested.

"This is a good idea, but since we can't find the wood, can we find something else to replace it?" Wang Dayong asked.

“It’s hard to find even stones in this wilderness prairie.

How can I find wood? "

"That's not necessarily the case, we have captured a lot of small shields.

It might be useful to keep these shields in front. "Shitou said.

Several people discussed and prepared to sew all the armors together, and then stuff the shields inside the armors to make a thick giant shield.

Let some people hold up in front of the artillery.

Leave a cannon port to bombard the enemy.

Just do it.

Five large shields were quickly made.

Behind each shield were more than 20 people holding long sticks.

Let's move forward together.

Following closely behind were the men carrying the artillery pieces.

The defenders on the city wall also noticed this situation and immediately aimed their heavy crossbows at the shield and fired arrows.

The power of the heavy crossbow is indeed very strong.

The shot hit the shield, and more than 20 people were shocked and took two steps back before they could stand upright.

Seeing that large crossbow arrows cannot penetrate the defense.

The crowd cheered.

Keep walking forward with your shield in hand.

Until it was close enough to be within shooting range.

The Turkic defenders were completely anxious.

People kept shooting arrows with heavy crossbows, trying to penetrate the shield.

But every time a heavy crossbow fires an arrow, more than a dozen people need to turn the winch and re-string it.

There will be space left in between.

At this time, Daxia's artillery had also loaded gunpowder, and after lighting it, it aimed at the heavy crossbows on the city wall.

Only a few loud bangs were heard.

The soldiers who were preparing heavy crossbows were all hit and killed on the spot.

Several heavy crossbows were also blown to pieces.

The firepower on the city wall slowed down a lot, and more and more artillery moved to the front and began to attack the city wall.

The defenders were suppressed to the point where they couldn't even raise their heads.

Wang Dayong dispatched ten more artillery pieces and aimed them at the city gate.

"Fire!" Wang Dayong ordered.

Ten cannons fired simultaneously.

Only a loud bang was heard.

The city gate has been smashed, and only a frame is still supporting it.

You can see many people behind the door, carrying stones to block the long door.

But when attacked by artillery, iron sand flew everywhere.

Many people who moved stones to block the city gate were injured.

Then a second shot was fired.

The second cannon shot completely smashed the city gate, and those who stepped forward to move stones were even worse.

The iron pellets sprayed directly from the artillery turned into a hornet's nest.

After breaking the city gate, Wang Dayong immediately ordered a charge.

At the same time, let the artillery suppress the defenders on the city wall.

Let their archers dare not raise their heads to shoot arrows.

After rushing in, they divided into two teams and chased the Turkic soldiers everywhere.Although the generals guarding the city desperately organized their troops to fight back.

But once they gathered together, they were greeted by a row of grenades.

Those who were directly bombed fell on their backs.

The Turkic cavalry were so frightened that they could only turn around and run away.

After a fierce battle in the city for a short time, the troops defending the city could no longer hold up.

"Retreat quickly. You will die if you stay. We'd better meet Lord Mo Han first."

The general who defended the city took the remaining soldiers and retreated through the back door.

Wang Dayong and his men quickly took control of the royal city. The people here had already been exploited by the rebels once.

Seeing Daxia's army, everyone showed fear.

There are also some people who show hatred in their eyes.

But when he came into contact with Daxia's soldiers, he quickly lowered his head.

They were afraid that they would be discovered and killed.

Wang Dayong was too lazy to pay attention to these people in the city.

As long as they don't cause trouble, they won't hurt these people.

Wang Dayong said loudly: "We are Daxia's army. As long as you stay honest, we will never hurt you.

If anyone dares to sneak attack Daxia's soldiers.

If everyone around you sits together, they will all die! "

Wang Dayong led people to conduct full patrols to suppress Turks who might resist.

Shitou and Liu Ergou led troops to seize the rich households in the city and the gold and silver in the palace.

Sweep away all the money.

Anyone who dared to resist was killed without mercy.

He captured the royal city as quickly as possible and led the army to leave the royal city.

Not only did he get a lot of money, he also gained a lot of horses.

Use these codes to check property.

Liu Ergou was so happy that his pockets were filled with gold, silver and jewelry.

Putting it on the horse, he couldn't help but giggle.

"This battle was really enjoyable, and I must have made at least more than 30 taels of silver.

If we take this money back, will the court reward us? "

Shitou was also very happy: "Of course, we will definitely be rewarded for our military exploits by conquering the royal city.

Not only can you be rewarded with money, but you can also be promoted.

It's a pity that the royal city is of no use in our hands.

If my lord hadn't given the order from the beginning, I would have set the entire royal city on fire.

These Turks don't even have a place to live. "

“Don’t be too anxious to be happy, you must sum up your experience after winning the battle.

The Turks now have many powerful heavy crossbows.

They only have a few weapons to defend the city, and we can barely handle them.

I'm afraid that Mo Han will have a lot of these heavy crossbows in his hands, and it won't be that easy to defeat them on flat ground. "

Wang Dayong has been thinking about how to fight Mo Han after meeting them.

Thinking of the power of the heavy crossbow, I felt a little worried.

Used on flat ground, one arrow may hit a dozen people.

Nothing can resist such a powerful force.

Although several huge shields were made, they were too bulky for fighting on flat ground.

What's more, a few shields can't protect [-] cavalry.

"Your reminder was timely. If they have too many heavy crossbows, we won't be able to fight them head-on.

I'll be sure to bring heavy artillery when I attack next time.

Even if he doesn't have a heavy crossbow, he is no match for us. "Shitou said.

“Anyway, just let them retreat and hand the gunpowder to the Turkic Khan.

There is no need for us to fight the main force of the Turks. "Liu Ergou also knows how powerful it is.

He was not dazzled by the victory in front of him.

The three of them discussed it and decided to avoid fighting with Mo Han's main force as much as possible.
