...

"put!"

At two hundred steps, with the roar of the Han army commanders at various clutches, hundreds of operators behind the catapults swung their hammers and smashed them hard on the trigger.

In an instant, hundreds of fire-ridden iron balls brought a long string of dark curtains over the city wall, and roared towards the Mengluo army attacking outside the pass.

"Boom boom boom..."

The thin iron sheet gradually melted as the tinder burned, and exploded in an instant when it landed, and clusters of yellow-brown smoke rose up, filling the dense array of alien soldiers.

"Ah~~My eyes, ah~~"

An alien soldier carrying a ladder screamed and was pierced by the limes and sand inside the iron cannon. He immediately threw down the ladder without regard to his companions behind him, and rolled on the ground with his face covering his face.

After the heavy ladder lost its center of gravity, he immediately tripped the rest of his companions to the ground. The thigh and knee of an alien soldier on the left was accidentally crushed by the ladder. He grinned and miserable.

On the other side, the alien generals who held up the fox sword to command the attack were still shouting hard the moment before to increase their morale.

But the next moment, an iron cannon exploded at his feet, and then the iron slag and iron nails inside mixed with choking limestone and sand, all piercing into his cheeks.

The violent stinging pain made him unable to even make a tragic sound, and he fell down straight. He saw that his face was covered in blood and blood, and even one side of his cheek was torn apart by iron nails, revealing a row of white teeth. The scene was extremely terrifying.

"Let it go! Keep it go! Kill this group of bastards to death, hahaha!"

Seeing the Luo army outside the Pass let out a shrill wailing sound under the iron artillery offensive, Han Kuang finally laughed, smiling so comfortably, as if he had released all the aggrieved people from his body, just like singing a song.

Compared with giant catapults, catapults cannot compare with them in terms of destructive power and range, but they have an advantage that giant catapults do not exist, that is, the shooting frequency is much higher than giant catapults.

After each round of projection of the giant catapult, according to modern time, it will take about five minutes to reload it at least once again, while the Han army's catapult car can complete all the steps in just one minute.

This is mainly due to the fact that the Han army's catapult car has a gear device developed by the Military Science and Technology Corporation, which can greatly shorten the preparations before shooting. Even if the Han army's giant catapult machine is also equipped with gear devices and has been completely mechanically standardized, this is a technology that the Monroe Empire could not have learned secretly.

Therefore, abandoning the heavy heavy catapult and switching to a catapult that can cause serious casualties to personnel is strictly a tactical arrangement of the current emperor Liu Ce. There is no need to equip Xuanwu Pass with heavy catapults, and using a movable catapult with rails is enough to defend against the offensive of the Loren people outside the World War.

Of course, more importantly, Liu Ce believes that the bulky machinery of the giant catapult has fallen behind and is easily a living target, and will soon be replaced by a brand new military product...

In the blink of an eye, the Han army on the wall of Xuanwu Pass had already launched more than ten consecutive counterattacks against the alien army outside the pass, and the Mengluo army on the opposite side could not raise its head.

Seeing the battlefield gradually being filled with smoke and the huge siege towers stagnated a hundred steps away from the city wall, Han Kuang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, the offensive of the Monroe army was repelled by himself again. Although the enemy's retreat had not yet sounded, it was only a matter of time.

"Ah, ah, ah..."

A Menglu soldier lay on his companion's body, his dark face covered with iron debris, and kept making hoarse roars from his throat, as if asking for help from his companions passing by.

Sadly, many foreign soldiers were like him. Under the attack of iron artillery, the blood bravery in their bodies had long been replaced by cold coldness. How could they care about his situation?

However, there were still a group of men who were fearless and Meng Luo, who, led by their own commanders, carried a ladder to approach the city wall.

However, in front of them, a moat with a width of one zhang and a depth of seven meters, and a sharp inner corner blocked their way...

If you want to fill the trench at this distance, you have to fill it with your life!

But this group of foreign soldiers who had already killed red eyes ignored it and put the ladder on the trench, and then stepped on the shaking ladder on the trench with mad expressions, trying to step across the moat.

As for how to break into the hard and thick city passes through the trench, it is no longer within their consideration.

"Shit whizz..."

"Puchi, puchi..."

As soon as the alien soldiers stepped onto the cloud ladder, the Han crossbowmen on Xuanwu Pass immediately launched a shooting, nailing them into the trenches and turning them into hedgehogs.

"kill!"

"Puchi~"

“Uh~”

An alien general was about to boost his morale, but he didn't expect a crossbow arrow to roar through the air and directly pierced the iron leaves in his chest. The cold arrow pierced through his body and immediately swept his whole body coldly, causing him to moan, and his body fell into the trench without any stability, and was directly penetrated by the Jujiao, and his blood was flowing out of the air and died.

"Escape!"

The commander general was killed. The Menglu soldiers who had originally planned to cross the death area turned around and ran away, which finally triggered a major escape.

“Woo~~”

The sound of retreating from the Monroe army also sounded at the right time, declaring that this attack failed again.

"Roar~~"

“Hahahaha~~”

When the Han soldiers on Xuanwu Pass saw the Mengluo army retreating to their base camp like a tide, they immediately cheered loudly.

Han Kuang was so excited that he punched the trunk and said with joy: "I have fought a lifelong battle with the Monroe, and I have never followed His Majesty so happily. This Xuanwu Pass is really solid, hahaha!"

The deputy general Zhao Ming, who was standing by, deeply agreed: "Yes, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, when did our soldiers in Xuanwu Pass have been so proud? All of this is because of His Majesty's support."

Han Kuang nodded: "So we must guard this Han land and live up to His Majesty's trust!"

"Han family land? Does General Han refer to Xuanwu Pass?"

Just as Han Kuang and Zhao Ming were excited, a joking voice sounded behind them.

When I looked back, I saw a handsome young man wearing a brocade battle robe, holding a horse whip in his hand, and smiling face slowly walked towards them.

When the two saw each other, they quickly saluted: "The last general will meet with General Cavalry!"

This young man is no other person, he is the commander of the Yulin Guard, who commands the military affairs of the four towns in Xuanwu Pass. He has been in battle for eight years and has never lost. Huo Qing.

In addition, he also has a prominent identity, the brother-in-law of the current emperor, the brother-in-law of Concubine Song, and the "cheap son-in-law" of the Monroe Empire, Tuoba Hongye!

Huo Qing stood in front of the city wall and pointed to the densely packed Mengluo army in the distance and said, "All sun and moon shine are Han territory. The land outside the border is also the kingly land of our Han family. The Han people have the power to ride on the grassland outside the border!"
