"Hmm! Then I will immediately arrange for my men to design and manufacture even more advanced siege weapons..." Dugu Yan said.
Among all siege weapons, there is a type called "siege tower" that is extremely expensive when facing large cities.
In other words, it was a wooden "tube-shaped building" that was pushed or pulled by people to the top of the city wall. It had three floors and stairs. Soldiers would climb the stairs and put down the wooden planks at the top.
Then, a large number of soldiers rushed onto the city wall!
This siege weapon has the advantage of high defensive capabilities and a significant siege effect. Once the top layer of wooden planks is laid down, victory is basically secured...
However, it also has a drawback, which is that it requires a relatively high degree of flatness of the ground.
Because it is essentially a mobile "tenement building," if the ground is uneven, the "building vehicle" will tip over on its own.
Dugu Yan was preparing to design a new building vehicle, but she soon discovered a fatal problem!
That means King Wei Ji had already predicted Jiang Ming and his group's prediction...
The ground around Daliang City was dug up and full of pits and bumps, so even if such a tall building was built, it would be impossible to push it down to the city walls!
Dugu Yan also considered a suicide squad that would scale the walls, equipped with metal barbs, to be the first to scale the walls and engage in combat...
But this tactic failed after just one charge...
The Wei army didn't need to defend at all. The soldiers who climbed the wall got scared when they reached the fifth or sixth floor and fell to their deaths!
For a moment, Jiang Ming and his many generals were at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Actually, Jiang Ming had another trick up his sleeve: to manufacture cannons...
In that case, the city walls of Daliang City would be blown down directly.
But he also understood that this was Pandora's box.
Before you have fully subdued the world, rashly using something so modern will allow other enemies to quickly learn a simplified version, which will create even more trouble for you!
Enlightenment is a double-edged sword!
At least for now, it's not appropriate to do that...
So he conceived of an even more extreme method using cold weapons...
