Lord of Riders

Shao Yu was quickly inspired by it, wouldn’t it be much easier to build a **** and attack a city?

However, each person brought a bag of soil and piled it under the city wall. It would be more troublesome to actually use it in war. The six-meter-high city wall was carried one by one by the soldiers.

After all, that is also something written in the novel, I believe it will basically not be used in war.

But the siege equipment can be modified to achieve the same effect.

Without further ado, after thinking of this, Shao Yu immediately ordered the soldiers to chop down nearby numbers to make siege equipment.

At present, most of the siege equipment used in Calradia is a long ladder. There are also a small number of siege vehicles, similar to the ancient ladders of the Heavenly Dynasty.

What Shao Yu has to do is to improve some things like ladders.

But soon, Shao Yu changed his mind again. The ladder still seems to be a bit troublesome.

Before the ladder was manufactured, Shao Yu suddenly thought of the elevator system for later generations.

Why is it so troublesome to climb a hill? Wouldn’t it be more convenient to use a device like an elevator to send it to the city wall?

"Do you understand? Just make it according to the blueprint I designed, and make a cross for me in the shortest time. A day later, I will see these things."

Shao Yu stopped making large-scale ladders, called the craftsmen who were accompanying the army, and said to them

"Yes, your Majesty, rest assured, we will do our best!" The craftsmen also promised.

"Very well, work hard. After victory, you will be rewarded a lot," Shao Yu said, and he couldn't help feeling a bit of persuading them to be traitors.

Shao Yu changed the plan of a large-scale ladder into a troop transport device. The overall structure is a large shelf on which a sling is placed. One end of the sling is placed with an elevator-like counterweight, and the other end is placed with a large troop-carrying frame.

Soldiers stand in the big frame. Because there is a counterweight, the soldiers manipulating below can balance the big frame and the counterweight with very little effort. Carry the soldiers up the city wall. Thereby reducing or exempting the huge losses caused by the city walls.

As soon as they said nothing, those craftsmen immediately took a lot of soldiers and started to build this siege device according to Shao Yu's instructions after getting the drawings, and to make this siege device that Shao Yu called a flying ladder.

In Shao Yu's siege war, he always likes to use some crooked ways and strange things.

Siege machines are especially used. No siege slings were used this time. This time, unlike the previous attack on Kudan, there were not many defenders in Kudan. Even if a hole was blasted into the wall this time, the enemy could fill it with a human head.

It is more realistic to compete directly for the wall.

The soldiers of the Nord Kingdom watched that Shao Yu did not take the initiative to attack, and guessed that Shao Yu must have used something wrong again, but they could only guard in the city. They were definitely not opponents when they went out of the city to fight, and they might have been attacked by Shao Yu in a sneak attack.

A day later, the siege equipment of the Shao Ming Kingdom was made under Shao Yu's personal supervision.

Mainly ten flying ladders. Each flight ladder is a full eight meters high, and the troop transport frame on the flight ladder can transport them to a place almost as high as the city wall, and can transport more than ten soldiers at a time.

When the ladder was in place, the Kingdom of Shao Ming immediately launched an attack on Kulao.

Naturally, the Shao Ming Kingdom's offensive still prioritized long-range attacks.

The 15,000 crossbowmen in the Shao Ming Kingdom’s army are not vegetarian

Just like the end of the Warring States Period, the Qin State attacked the city, and the sky rained arrows all over the sky.

15,000 crossbowmen from the Shao Ming Kingdom lined up outside the city of Kulao. The strong crossbow in his hand aimed at the head of Kulao.

The crossbowmen of the Shao Ming Kingdom can shoot at the enemy at the head of the city from 500 meters away, but the bows and arrows of the Kulao garrison can only shoot two to three hundred meters.

Completely suppressed by the Shao Ming Kingdom

"Let the arrow!" the commander gave an order

Thousands of crossbows flew straight to Kulao City.

Although tens of thousands of crossbow arrows were not enough to cover the sky, they also formed a large shadow.

The sound of dongdongdangdang sounded on Kudan's city wall. Kulao’s defenders immediately had many soldiers hitting arrows. One round of arrows rained down. Thousands of Nord soldiers were killed and more than 3,000 casualties.

Because most of the people on the wall are archers, there is no defense against crossbow arrows, and there are heavy casualties.

"The shielded infantry guards the wall, the archer quickly retreat!"

Commander Nord was beaten by the rain of arrows from the Shao Ming Kingdom, and the archers suffered more than half of the casualties. Commander Nord did not expect that the powerful crossbow of the Shao Ming Kingdom could reach such a long range.

The wounded corpses of the Nord Kingdom on the city’s head were everywhere, and even the archers prepared behind were covered by a rain of arrows. The casualties were serious.

Originally, the commander of the Nord Kingdom wanted to suppress the Shao Ming Kingdom with archers. Because the longbow used extensively in the Nord Kingdom still has a great advantage in front of archers from many countries.

The remaining Nord archers retreated immediately after being ordered.

The rain of crossbow arrows from the Shao Ming Kingdom soon followed.

The Shao Ming Kingdom’s shooting was divided into two rounds, one volley of 10,000 archers, followed by a volley of 5,000 archers, to form a continuous fire suppression.

This time the wounded soldiers of the Nord Kingdom suffered again, and before they had time to retreat for treatment, they were once again covered by the arrow rain from the Shao Ming Kingdom.

At this time, many soldiers of the Nord Kingdom are dead and breathable.

After two rounds of shooting, the Nord Kingdom’s defenders suffered nearly two thousand casualties.

The infantry rushed up quickly, and some soldiers rescued the wounded soldiers away from the city wall. Save them.

Of course, many wounded soldiers were behind the city wall, and the guards and the soldiers who were prepared were near the city wall, so they were all covered by the rain of arrows from the Shao Ming Kingdom. Only some of the people standing in the triangle area under the city wall were shooting dead ends, and there were no casualties.

The infantry of the Nord Kingdom wore shields one after another, relying on the shields to resist the arrow rain attack of the Shao Ming Kingdom.

However, the effect of the wooden shield of the Nord Kingdom does not seem to be very good.

Without the serious threat of enemy archers~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the crossbowmen of the Shao Ming Kingdom moved forward again.

It was pressed until it was less than two hundred meters away from the city wall of Kulao. Continue to shoot the enemy on the head of the city.

The penetrating power of the powerful crossbow of the Shao Ming Kingdom is much stronger than the penetrating power of the heavy crossbow of the Rhodok Kingdom, and it is far more than the bows and arrows of the Calradia continent.

The heavy Germanic shields of the Nord Kingdom simply cannot prevent the shooting of the crossbow. Basically was hit by three arrows. The shield of the Nord soldier was shattered.

Subsequently, the powerful crossbows of the Shao Ming Kingdom crossbowmen will ruthlessly penetrate the bodies of these Nord soldiers and kill them.

The Shao Ming Kingdom’s offensive continued continuously.

These crossbowmen of the Shao Ming Kingdom are not short of crossbow arrows. Each soldier is equipped with almost twenty crossbow arrows.

Shao Ming Kingdom shot down in one round. Basically, most defenders will be shot with one or more arrows. In the next two rounds of shooting, more than 2,000 people were hit by crossbow bolts, and the shield did not play a big role.
