Yes, touch your hand and get a new name. But I didn't mean it, I just acted subconsciously. I quickly laughed and said, "The third lady is joking. What can I do in broad daylight? I just ask if the stones used for casting cars are so big?"

"It's not that big, how can I throw it away?" Li Yaoguang gave me a blank look again, and hid it behind me, as if I was afraid that this young master would act like a hooligan and molest her white and tender little hand at any time. Who is that person

However, the flushing on Li Yaoguang's pretty face finally faded a little, and his eyes turned and fell on the huge catapults. "A large catapult car such as this can be thrown at least about three hundred steps at a distance."

"More than three hundred steps? Doesn't that mean that you can throw a mile of a mile, which is powerful enough, but how many people can throw it so far?" I looked at dozens of young and strong people at each catapult cart, and I couldn't help but feel dizzy. Could it be that such a thing needs so many people to control it?

"This kind of large catapult cart can only be 50% of the time. A larger catapult cart needs to be snatched by a hundred people." Li Yaoguang's words left me speechless, which completely exceeded my belief, and was different from the catapult cart I saw in later ancient war blockbusters and medieval war blockbusters. Uh, it should be called a catapult, not a catapult.

But the problem is that the difference between those stone catapults and ours is not very big, but the stones used to bear loads rely on inertia, while the stone catapults of this era rely on the drag of human power to form power.

Well, the difference is not big. It can be completely changed to a mechanical catapult that uses non-human power. It not only saves a lot of manpower, but also makes the operation of the catapult easier. Well, if you use two sets of pulley systems and then modify it to a mechanical inertial catapult, I believe it will definitely not be worse than the catapults made by the Arabs in Middle Asia in the Middle Ages.

Just as I was touching my chin and thinking, the sound of war drums came from afar. I didn't care about it anymore and rushed to the city wall and looked down. With the smoke and dust formed by stepping on the ground, rows of rebels with helmets and armor appeared in sight again.

Standing at a high place, you can see at least hundreds of cloud ladders, and further away, there are more than a dozen castle cars for siege cities, and several siege cars with triangle roofs, or should be called siege cars. There are also five towering arrow towers, and countless people are yelling, pushing these arrow towers as high as three or four meters, square, like bunkers, slowly moving forward.

Seeing these arrow towers, I couldn't help but take a breath. These things are already high as the city walls, and not only have door panels nailed to the height of the arrow tower, but also covered with cowhides. This is to enhance the ability to resist strikes. Moreover, according to the relevant information I saw in later generations, this thing is definitely the nemesis of the city defender. After seeing this thing and looking at the stone throwing carts, I finally understood that if there were no these stone throwing carts, I wouldn't know how many servants would die today.

"They have such a good thing, why didn't they use it last night? If they used it, I'm afraid they would have had a big trouble last night." I couldn't help but murmur, and Li Shimin, who was standing next to me, turned his head speechlessly. "Brother, if this arrow tower is so big, it would definitely be a big move. If this happens, there is no sneak attack, it's obviously coming. Isn't it sick when I push things in the middle of the night?"

After hearing this guy's explanation, this young master almost slapped himself. Yes, such a thing must be a strange sound when pushed. I'm afraid that I can hear the noise two miles away from the city, so I can steal a lot of attack.

"Are they going to attack the city? Are there many rebels coming?" Li Xuanba was squeezed behind, jumping up and down for a long time and couldn't see it. He could only ask loudly from behind.

"At least 20,000. It seems that Yang Xuangan really wants to try his best to open the gap from us." Chai Shao replied loudly. After hearing this, I couldn't help but take a breath. In ancient wars, I really didn't treat people as human beings. I could take 20,000 at one move. I don't know how many of the 20,000 people could survive until the end of the war.

I narrowed my eyes and looked up at the sky. It was less than two hours before the end of the previous battle. It seemed that Yang Xuangan's crazy guy really wanted to regard this place as the main attack point. His sister, could this guy see that his brother is a time traveler, so he tried his best to break the myth of the time traveler's complete plan and undefeated battles?

At this moment, he heard the loud drum sounds from the north, and everyone's faces changed. Pei Yuanqing smashed his mouth and shouted in a low voice. "It seems that Yang Ni's army intends to attack both sides, so that our Luoyang defenders cannot support each other."

, I guess Yang Xuan wanted to make reinforcements everywhere. Yang Gongdao gave a stern command with a cold face, so that everyone could go to their respective posts to be alert. He also prepared those stone casters. The opponent's arrow tower and that thing pose the greatest threat to the defenders on the city wall, and they must be cleaned up as soon as possible.

Then he said to Yang Shidao. The guy sighed and ran down the city tower and rushed to ask for help. In fact, Zhang Tonger, the general of Yingyanglang, who is a reserve team in the city, could not have known about such a big deal. However, if Yang Shida came forward, he could at least urge the other party to come over and reinforcements as soon as possible.

I didn't care about appreciating it anymore, and rushed to my defense zone, asking those people to prepare crossbow arrows and check whether the crossbow in their hands was damaged. Bales of crossbow arrows were placed in positions. Behind me, a catapult cart was also placed in the right position, aiming at the arrow tower nearest to us.

In front of this defense zone, there were at least three siege cars and an arrow tower. Seeing these things, I couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. I took a few steps back and came to Pei Yuanqing who came to help me defend and asked quietly: "Do you think our losses will be huge in the daytime siege battle today?"

"Don't worry, these thirty-five catapults are enough to smash all the siege equipment of those guys. If it were Yang Xuangan, I would have to gather at least fifty catapults and ten arrow towers, and the elite under my command were the vanguards, and the rebels on other city walls responded, so that the city did not dare to defend one side with all their might. In this way, at least 30% of the confidence to break through Shangchun Gate. Now, there are so few siege equipment, and it is just a delusion to want to break the city.

This young master couldn't help but suddenly realize. "Brother Yuanqing, I feel much more relieved when I heard you say this. But I think that Yang Xuangan must be anxious about his future. After all, my famous Sui Dynasty, Hu'er is now in Donglai, with more than 100,000 naval soldiers. If he learns the news here, he will definitely come to support him at night. At that time, he will have no chance to attack even if he wants to attack."

"I laughed at you. I have been in battle with my father for several years. Last year, I followed the emperor to fight north. I have seen more wars, so I can naturally guess a rough idea." Pei Yuanqing said this and couldn't help but sigh. "It's a pity that my hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in the Sui Dynasty were buried in the bitter and cold land of Liaodong. Even I was injured. I was originally glad that I could have had a good rest for at least a while, but I didn't expect that Yang Xuangan actually planned to rebel and came to attack the eastern capital Luoyang."

"I heard from my brother's tone, I didn't see the emperor going north, right?" This guy looked like he was only in his early twenties at most. He had been working hard on the battlefield with his father for several years. It seems that it was not a lie to say that the ancients were precocious and that they would not have been prime minister at the age of twelve. Such a little kid would be young in the future. Not to mention being prime minister or being a member of the Communist Youth League, he would be young.

"I don't think so." Pei Yuanqing glanced at me, thought for a while and shook his head affirmatively, "Last year, a million elite troops were nearly half of their troops, but they didn't even see the city of Pyongyang, so they could only return to the court. Without waiting for the people's strength to recover, they wanted to fight north again. I originally thought that the ending was as good as last year. I didn't expect that Yang Xuangan would have to return without success."

While we were talking, the drums in the enemy camp changed and became excited. The rebel formations that were originally standing in the open space began to slowly move towards us. The heavy arrow tower slowly advanced forward with the sound of shouting trumpets again.

"Don't worry about the catapult, smash the arrow tower first." This young master turned around and shouted at Zheng Chen. Zheng Chen and Liu Rongtian went left and right, greeting the military heads of the catapults. The thirty catapults also began to move under the command of their respective military heads. "Hurry up, move one inch to the right, no, come back a little, stop right, just like this, you can't move."

"And you, Yuanfang, go down here and try to get hundreds of bricks over." I whispered to Li Yuanfang again.

"Young Master, what you need to defend the city is big stones and rappelling wood. If the brick cannot kill anyone, it will be injured at most." Li Yuanfang said in a low voice.

"Do it honestly for me, and you will know when the time comes." This young master gave this guy a blank look and said viciously. Li Yuanfang helplessly called about twenty people to rush down the city tower with him and ran towards a half-built house not far away, where there were at least tens of thousands of bricks.

"Brother, what are you going to do?" Pei Yuanqing asked at me with some clues.

"I asked them to get some bricks, and it might be of great use later." This young master looked very confident. Unfortunately, only the man who appreciated this handsome appearance was man, and no beautiful girl. I couldn't help but subconsciously turned my head and looked south. I happened to see Li Yaoguang in a bright and dazzling armor.

She was wearing armor and even more heroic, holding a good bow, waiting quietly as the rebels entered her range.
