Throwing some stones out is no big deal!
"This giant stone cannon is really useful!" Feng Wuze stroked his beard, looked closely through the telescope, and said with emotion: "Although the range is a little shorter and the destructive power is less, the advantage is that it can be quickly used. It's really satisfying to fire it one by one!"
"yes."
Feng Jie followed behind and nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Ning's brain is very useful."
"It's also useful like a stirrup saddle!"
"And horseshoes, which greatly extend the lifespan of warhorses. Last time we captured Dragon City, the Liao people spread caltrops on the ground, but our warhorses weren't affected at all."
Caltrops, shaped like a thorn, have one spike pointing upward wherever they touch the ground. They are a common defensive device used by the military. Once laid, they can effectively slow down enemy attacks. Unfortunately, their craftsmanship was poor, and the Dafeng used horseshoes, so they collapsed immediately upon being stepped on.
"I think it's almost done."
Feng Wuzhe put down the telescope.
Shuofang City is still relatively strong.
It is impossible to break the city with just the stone cannon.
After all, the Liao people are not stupid.
Sure enough, Ning Que raised his hand again.
"charge!!!"
A majestic horn sounded.
Many large machines were pushed up.
Siege warfare does not rely solely on human lives.
It also needs to be equipped with various siege weapons.
The stone cannon is only the simplest one.
For example, the Linche that is nearly ten feet high!
There were dozens of people at the bottom pushing the wheels!
The car is covered with cowhide armor all around.
It can effectively prevent arrow attacks from enemy troops defending the city.
Lu Gong's chariot, Wu Gang's chariot, and battering ram...
Every siege engine has its purpose.
Under the cover of siege engines, the infantry and chariots in the rear also began to charge. They coordinated with each other, in other words, an ancient version of infantry-tank coordination. To achieve this level, they must have been specially trained.
"Huh?"
"Why doesn't Xiao Ning push his main force forward?"
Feng Jie frowned.
Ning Que has a full 200,000 people under his command!
But now less than 30,000 people have been sent?
What’s going on?!
