"Practice justice for the heavens, rob the rich and help the poor, don't come out to seek death if you have nothing to do with it, today you are only looking for Zhang's family! Kill!"

"Don't seek death if you don't have anything to do with it! Kill!"

Ling Cao took the lead and shouted in his mouth, and then more than a thousand other people also shouted in his mouth, which made many villagers in the village feel relieved after hearing the news. He ran home and locked the door tightly, but no one came up to seek death.

Soon Ling Cao led his men to the front of the house, but he didn't rush for the main entrance, but just followed Zhu Wei's instructions to find a wall, and stuck two simple siege vehicles on it.

Naturally, the people in this house noticed the movement, and had already closed the door tightly, then lowered the gate gate, and sent people to the archery tower in the courtyard to prepare for thieves.

It's just that the people in this house obviously didn't expect that the culprit didn't come to attack the main entrance, but found a courtyard wall and pushed two strange cars. At first, they thought that the culprit was going to climb the wall to enter.

Therefore, the members of the Zhang family in the house quickly organized their manpower, armed with spears, bows and arrows, and prepared to deal with the bandits who came over the wall.

It's just that the location chosen by Ling Cao and the others was just out of the reach of the arrow tower in the house, so the archers on the arrow tower in Zhang's house could only watch and worry, shouting loudly about the movements of the thieves outside, but took The thieves outside have nothing to do.

"Boom...boom..."

Under the cover of two siege vehicles, Ling Cao personally led about twenty of his men, hid in the siege vehicles, pushed the battens and smashed the walls of Zhang's courtyard.

The people in Zhang's house were helpless against the two siege engines, and most of the other soldiers pretending to be bandits stood against the wall with their shields up, waiting for the courtyard wall to break open at any time before rushing in.

Zhang's courtyard walls are also made of rocks, loess, and wooden frame bottoms. There may also be rice paste as an adhesive to ensure the stability of the walls.

Then the courtyard wall was nearly two steps wide. Ordinary thieves naturally had nothing to do with the courtyard wall, they could only climb over the wall or rush in through the door.

But in Zhang's house, there are naturally ways to deal with the bandits who climb over the wall and the door. There are already archers, spearmen, and swordsmen ready in the courtyard. Anyone who comes in over the wall will naturally If you can't stand firmly, you will become the target of Zhang's people in the courtyard.

It's just that Zhang's people really have no defense against the method of forcibly breaking through the wall.

Among the two siege vehicles outside, the two or three people standing at the back pushed the battering posts hard against the wall, while the two people standing at the front held shovels and vigorously dug into the loose wall.

The excavated soil and rocks can be pushed out directly from the edge of the car. After continuous impact and digging, a hole can be dug in the wall soon.

In fact, this kind of method can dig a hole not to mention the walls of such houses, even the walls of the city.

In fact, the siege vehicle designed by Zhu Wei imitated the structure of the cave car, and then added some of Zhu Wei's own ideas, mainly for the earth and stone structures of the city walls and courtyard walls in this era.

In these days, it is rare to use rocks to build city walls like later generations. Walls made of earth and stone are relatively easy to dig. Therefore, using cave carts to protect the soldiers inside can also be used as a kind of excavation even if they are attacking the city. means of the city.

The top of the cave house car is a triangular slope structure. Even if stones are smashed off the city wall, some of the gravity can be relieved. In addition, the whole building resembles a house, so there is no fear of bows and arrows shooting in and hurting the soldiers inside.

It is indeed a very safe siege tool.

However, this kind of cave house car is afraid of fire. If it is really time to attack the city, it is necessary to add wet soil to it, and then water it to keep it moist, so as to slow down the fire from the defenders.

Of course, there is no need to worry so much when dealing with the walls of Zhang's house now.

To be honest, it is not very difficult for Ling Cao to lead more than 1000 people to attack a house. If it is not for the purpose of reducing casualties, it would be no problem to directly jump over the wall.

At most, many people will be killed or injured in the beginning by Zhang's people's counterattack.

But if we use a siege truck to dig through Zhang's courtyard wall, and then follow the training procedures that Zhu Wei ordered Ling Cao's men to shoot randomly with bows and arrows, and then charge in, we can capture the house with minimal casualties. .

So far so good.

Although the members of the Zhang family and the private soldiers guarding the house in the Zhang family's courtyard have already set up a defensive formation inside the courtyard wall to prevent the thieves from overcoming the wall, they are completely unaware of the thieves outside. What are the bandits doing.

Then the people on the arrow tower and watchtower yelled loudly that the bandits outside seemed to be doing something, but they couldn't see clearly the movements covered by the siege vehicles for a while.

However, with the impact of the bumper and the excavation of the courtyard wall by the hoe, the people of the Zhang family in the Zhang family's courtyard finally discovered something strange, and the earth and rocks on the courtyard wall could also be seen falling from the collision inside the courtyard wall. .

"No, the thief is digging the wall!"

"Quick, quickly find something to block the wall! Quick, quick..."

The people in charge of the Zhang family in the courtyard couldn't help shouting in their mouths, but they had never encountered such a thing before, and they didn't know what to do in a hurry. They said they wanted to block the wall, but what could they use to block it? .

"Boom... boom..."

With the impact of the bumper, a breach appeared on one courtyard wall, and then a breach was knocked out on the other courtyard wall, and one of the courtyard walls was a bit crumbling.

Then the two siege vehicles retreated. Ling Cao held a knife in one hand and a shield in the other, laughing in his mouth, "Brothers, you have broken the hard shell. Come, give them a hard time, and then fight in. Let’s take down Zhang’s house and eat the Zhang family’s meal!”

"No!", "Okay!", "Hahaha, kill!"

Several rangers under Ling Cao who were helping to lead the team also shouted, and as agreed before, more than 200 of the thousand people were archers. They raised their heads and drew their bows and threw them into the yard for a round Feather arrows.

"Boom...boom..."

With the sound of the bowstring vibrating, two hundred long arrows were thrown into the Zhang family's courtyard, and the Zhang family members inside couldn't help but exclaimed.

Most of Zhang's private soldiers do not have leather armor or hand shields. After all, they are private soldiers of a small family.

These people of the Zhang family were originally gathered together, preparing to fight the bandits who rushed in, but now they were hit by this round of arrows. Many people were pierced by the parabolic arrows, pierced into their arms, and stabbed into their bodies. The body, and the unlucky ones were directly plunged into the head and died.

Naturally, the originally neat archers, swordsmen, and spearmen were no longer able to maintain their defensive formations, and they were dodging around one by one.

Ling Cao led his men directly into the dug-out courtyard wall, collapsing the courtyard wall, creating a big opening at least four or five steps wide, accompanied by a cloud of sand and mist rising from the mud wall to cover it up. Next, he led someone to kill him in...
