Chapter 257 Defense weapons
Fanyang's city wall is not a simple rammed earth city wall, just stand on it. Fanyang's city wall not only has women's walls, city towers, horse faces, and urns.
The female wall strengthens the protection of the soldiers guarding the city, and the city tower increases the vision of the city guarding the city and the intensity of the bow and arrow (range, increase in the number of archers); the horse face increases the cross-fire boundary, and the increase in the coverage and angle of the bow and arrow increases the casualties of the siege and reduces the dead corners; the city gates are conquered by the city gate no longer means loss, but may also be the beginning of an annihilation battle.
After Ang Lee arranged the trenches, he would start preparing weapons to defend the city. Unlike Jizhou's sudden attack, Fanyang City had five hours to prepare.
There are many types of weapons to defend the city.
Ang Lee has prepared, tinea oil...boiling water, gold juice...rolling stones, wood...the best ones should be wolf teeth pats and yaksha basins.
The preparation of tinder oil is to deal with storm and storm... These two types of siege weapons are very powerful. They can poach the walls and block the city gates with the roof and baffles. If you throw stones or shoot arrows on it, you can be blocked by the roof and baffles.
At this time, after having tincture oil, you can pour the tincture oil on the car and throw a torch to burn it. Gentle oil is a good thing. For soldiers who came to the city of Yifu, the boiling hot oil will sprinkle it, and the flesh will rot at that time. The tiny oil will sprinkle on the siege ladder and then only a torch is needed, and a wave of attack will be put out.
Boiling water, golden juice... Boiling water is easy to obtain as long as it is not a siege battle for several months. It is simple, easy to operate, and has lethality.
Gold juice is an upgraded version of boiling water. It can be said to be a chemical weapon to some extent. The name is beautiful, but unfortunately it is not really melted gold. Gold juice is boiled feces and urine. It can not only burn and kill enemies, but also the feces are dirty and rotten, making it difficult to heal. It feels disgusting to feel so nauseous that it feels so nauseous when you are poured on.
You don't know that the boiled gold juice is really too smelly. It was the first time that Ang Lee saw the feces and urine being boiled, rolling and bubbled, almost spitting Ang Lee to death.
I won’t say much about the rolling stones, they are just stones. Let’s talk about the woods... You should know that there were no woods in the Tang Dynasty at this time, Ang Lee directly drew the drawings and asked the craftsmen in the city to speed up the production.
There are three materials for traditional wood: wood, brick and mud.
Among them, the wooden squid is made of huge wood to build a wooden pillar with a diameter of four feet and five inches, and then nail a reverse whisker nail to increase the lethality of the wooden squid when throwing the wooden squid.
As the name suggests, the mud pellet is made of a column shape with a mixed soil bristle, a ponytail or a hairy mane of 30 kilograms to form a column with a length of two or three feet and a diameter of five inches.
Brick pellets are burned with the technique of burning bricks. The size is about three feet, five inches long and six inches in diameter, which is about the same size as mud pellets. Like rolling stones, they are used to throw and kill enemies and destroy siege tools.
Finally, Wolf Teeth Paint was also an introduction to the tools of the future. Wolf Teeth Paint and Yaksha Paint can be said to be an upgraded version of the rolling stone tree, because they also rely on the force formed by the weight drop to cause damage. There is a winch, which can be reused as long as it is not destroyed.
The surface of the wolf teeth pat is made of wooden boards with iron nails, and a blade is installed on each side to enhance lethality.
The operation of the wolf teeth pat is controlled by two sets of ropes. Once the enemy attacks the city, he will use a set of ropes to lift the pat surface upright to the city wall. When the enemy climbs below the pat surface, he will immediately put the pat down.
Yasha marlin (also known as the Guest House) is made of wet elm wood that is more than one zhang long and one foot in diameter. The marlin wood is nailed with five inches long and has wheels on both ends, and it is also built by winches on the city.
These two are powerful tools for harvesting people's heads.
Not only that, Ang Lee also prepared a large number of defenses at the top of the city, which were all for arrows and throwing stones... The things were also very simple, including wooden curtains, cloth curtains, leather curtains, etc. hanging on the outside of the squadron, bamboo plaques, wooden plaques, comb fences, bamboo fences, city protection frames and other shielding equipment standing on the city walls.
In order to prevent sneak attacks from tunnels... Ang Lee also prepared "Junting"... "Junting" was something that only appeared in the Ming Dynasty. It was to prevent someone from digging tunnels and attacking them. It was to dig a well at the foot of the city wall, two meters deep, and use a large new urn to cover the mouth of the urn with cowhide, and place the urn at the wellhead. You can hear the sound of digging tunnels.
In five hours, Ang Lee directly turned Fanyang City into a solid city.
....................................
From the busy afternoon to the evening, Fanyang City was illuminated by torches at night, and suddenly the sound of eating came from the city. Many women carried food to the city walls and brought the most delicious meals to their husbands.
At this time, everyone in Fanyang City worked together to defend their homes.
"The people's hearts can be used..." Ang Lee felt even more determined as he looked at this warm scene.
Cen Xi accompanied him and said, "Your Highness... We will guard the Wengcheng...! Your Jie family army is the safest to protect you."
"Thank you for your care at Prefect Cen. However, I think that my King's Jie family army is the strongest, so they are the most suitable in the Wengcheng. To welcome the first wave of rushing, the Jie family army will definitely be able to repel the other party.
If the city is broken, we will all die, so I don’t need anyone to protect you. This battle is victorious but not defeated...!"
"As for the order..." Cen Xi bowed and replied.
"It's time to eat..." Just as Ang Lee and Cen Xi were talking, the Jie family army, who were deploying a big yellow crossbow, heard the sound of the people in Fanyang City shouting for dinner.
Then he actually saw Lu Huiyun, the daughter of the Lu family, and Wang Ling'er, the daughter of the Wang family, come to Wengcheng to deliver food to the soldiers of the Jie family.
Xue Chongxun accompanied the two girls to deliver the food in his hands to the soldiers of the Jie family army one by one. Who would not like the beautiful girl? And she was so noble. For a moment, the Jie family army above the urn city were all full of fighting spirit.
After Lu Huiyun and Wang Ling'er left, a group of Jie family troops began to discuss the legitimate daughters of the aristocratic family:
"Oh... I'm really so elegant. It is said that one of them is the legitimate daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan...!"
"I know, the one wearing white clothes is indeed the precipitation of generations of nobles. It is a blessing for us to take a look at such a person."
"Yes... Everyone, let's take a look. Even the daughter of the Lu family and the daughter of the Wang family came to deliver food to us. We must guard Fan Yang this time."
"Haha...that's of course. As long as we are there, no matter what kind of room Wei or Khitan, whoever comes will die."
"Five hundred yellow crossbows, even if the gods come, they will give me money to die in the urn city."
"Hey... In addition to your big yellow crossbow, don't forget our longbowmen. This time, a thousand longbowmen will also let you see the power of our longbows."
"Brothers, let's shout together."
"What are you shouting..."
"Use me in the first battle, and I will win."
"good...!"
A few seconds later, the earth-shaking first battle sounded from Fanyang City, using me and my will to win. The sound was extremely shocking and unforgettable for a long time.
