The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 597: Fierce resistance
When the Turkic Khan saw this scene, his expression immediately changed.

In the previous battle, the rebels did not show these weapons.

With so many heavy crossbows, the threat to them is too great.

The heavy crossbow is comparable to Daxia's artillery, and even has a longer range.

There is almost no defense at all.

It is simply the natural enemy of the cavalry.

Seeing more and more heavy crossbows launched by the rebels, even the soldiers guarding the city were so frightened that their expressions changed.

The rebels actually have more than 200 heavy crossbows, all of which have been strung and pointed at the soldiers on the city wall.

Looking at such a long arrow is frightening.

"Everyone, hurry up and hide behind the parapet. Don't show your head casually.

After the enemy attacks, they will hit me with rocks and use explosive packs to fight back. "

The Turkic Khan quickly ordered loudly.

He also hid behind the city wall.

If he were shot by such a big arrow, his whole body would be skewered, and there would be absolutely no chance of survival.

Seeing the reaction of the defenders on the city wall, Mo Han couldn't help laughing.

"Did you see that they were already cowering in fear before the fight even started? How can they be my opponents?"

The rebels' morale was greatly boosted, and they roared loudly to break through the city and capture the Khan alive.

The higher the momentum of the rebels, the lower the morale of the Turkic Khan became.

There is always a feeling that I can't hold on today.

Shaoyao had already heard the shouting outside her residence. She stood up in great surprise and looked outside.

Although the moonlight was very bright, we still couldn't see what was happening on the front line.

When the people who searched for the news came back, Shaoyao asked eagerly: "Why are the front lines shouting so loudly? What happened?"

The guard who went to find out the news had a panic look on his face.

"It seems that the situation is not good. The rebels have a large number of heavy crossbows. I heard that there are at least two to three hundred.

I'm afraid there will be heavy casualties in defending the city today! "

Shaoyao's heart sank immediately after hearing the guard's report.

He quickly said to the guards: "Don't stay here anymore, go and protect your father, and let him never raise his head to detect the enemy.

When the enemy begins to attack the city, try to use kerosene and rolling wood to deal with them. If that doesn't work, use more gunpowder. "

"But the order the Khan gave us is to protect Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Shaoyao was extremely anxious and reprimanded loudly: "I am very safe in the city, what's the use of protecting me?

We should hurry up and protect our father. Only by blocking the rebels can we be safe.

If you are unwilling to go, I, the princess, will go in person! "

The guard was frightened to death and quickly agreed.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. We will go and protect Lord Khan."

Dozens of guards discussed it, and six of them were left to protect Shaoyao's safety, while the rest went to protect the Turkic Khan.

Although some people were sent, Shaoyao still felt uneasy.

Even when I stayed, I was fidgety and fidgety, constantly looking outside.

Let people go to the front to check the news.

……

At the gate outside the city, the rebels have begun to attack.

At Mo Han's order, the crossbow arrows were fired together.

It was not completely directed at the people on the city wall, but all of them were shot on the city wall.

The powerful force nailed the crossbow arrows to the bricks of the city wall, which could be used as a ladder for climbing.

After shooting several rounds of arrows, the city wall was densely covered with arrows.

You can easily climb up without using a siege ladder at all.Seeing the power of the crossbow attack, Mo Han was very satisfied.

He ordered the people behind him: "Tell the crossbowmen behind you to throw them towards the bridge, and be sure to suppress them so that they cannot raise their heads.

As long as our people rush to the city wall, we can capture the city.

Today we defeat the Khan in one fell swoop, and the Turks will be ours. "

There were actually more than 2000 heavy crossbows behind them. They adjusted their angles and gave the order.

Countless heavy crossbow arrows were thrown towards the city wall.

A parabola was drawn in the air and landed on the city wall, with part of it falling inside the city wall.

I originally thought that I could avoid the crossbow attack by hiding behind the wall.

But the soldiers guarding the city never expected that so many crossbow arrows would fall from the sky.

Many people did not react to the first wave of attacks and were directly shot through the body by crossbow arrows.

I never figured out what was going on until I died.

The soldiers around the Turkic Khan reacted very quickly. Seeing that the situation was not going well, they quickly picked up their shields and lay on top of him with their bodies.

A long arrow hit him, piercing the shield and piercing his body.

If it weren't for this shield, I'm afraid the Turkic Khan would have been shot.

"Hurry up and protect Lord Khan and hide in the corner!" The soldiers hurriedly pulled up the Turkic Khan and hid in the corner together with shields.

Seeing such a dense barrage of arrows being fired into the city, those who had no time to dodge suffered heavy casualties.

The Turkic Khan's heart was beating so fast that it almost killed him.

He gained a new understanding of the strength of the rebels, which was far beyond his imagination.

"Damn it, why do they have so many heavy crossbows? They never used them at the beginning. They only gave me a fatal blow at the critical moment!"

The Turkic Khan was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Only then did he realize that Mo Han's scheming was hidden so deeply.

I deeply regretted not listening to my daughter's words.

They only focused on expanding their territory and increasing the strength of their army, but they didn't put much effort into their weapons.

Just having so many people is of no use, weapons are the most important thing.

By the third round of shooting, the rebels had already begun to attack.

The defenders on the city wall wanted to counterattack, but the enemy's heavy crossbows had already adjusted their positions.

All shot into the city and walls.

Once someone shows up, they can easily be killed by arrows.

"Get on top of them all and be sure to block them. Have the explosive packs ready. If anyone dares to climb the city wall, throw them up and blow them up!"

The Turkic Khan roared loudly. At this moment, he could no longer care about the casualties. The most important thing was to defend the city.
Let the soldiers pick up two or three shields and stack them together to try to block the heavy crossbow arrows, then stand up and fight back.

If the enemy troops were allowed to climb up, they would surely die.

Gradually they adapted to the opponent's attacks, and they all picked up rocks and threw them down. Some people lit explosive packs and threw them down.

At this moment, he no longer cares about how expensive the explosives are, he wants to stop the enemy first.

The rebels were also fearless, climbing up the arrows on the wall and attacking upwards without fear of death.

The casualties on both sides were extremely tragic, and the last step was death.

Even if you risk your life, you will never give in.

"Archers, shoot arrows below!" the Turkic Khan yelled, instructing his men to fight back.

The soldiers around him had to find a few more shields and put them on top of the Turkic Khan's head.

He must be protected no matter what.

Hearing the cry of death, Shaoyao was even more worried.

Especially when I heard that the enemy actually had so many heavy crossbows, my heart sank even more.

"By the way, hurry up and take down all these door panels. Anything that can block the enemy's bows and arrows will be sent to the defenders." Shaoyao's eyes fell on the door panels, and then he thought of a way to deal with the heavy crossbow arrows.
