The heavens begin from practicing swords in the palace

Chenxi, a high city with big walls.

Under the city, there is a patch of potholes, even densely covered with thorns.

The Song family army not far away has already cut wood on the mountain not far away.

The felled wood has already arrived at the barracks.

In the Song family's army, many carpenters and craftsmen came with tools.

One of them was sanding a giant log, grinding it with a plane in both hands, front, back, front, back...

The plane is like a paintbrush. Under the control of the carpenter, the board is smoothed by this "paintbrush"...

These carpenters and craftsmen are exquisite in craftsmanship, quick in action, and work together with division of labor, which is extremely efficient.

On the side, there are dozens of brawny men with bare upper body,

Two hours later, a simple trebuchet was completed.

This trebuchet has a frame, between the two pillars of the frame, there is a fixed horizontal shaft, and there is a lever perpendicular to the shaft, which can rotate freely around the shaft.On the short arm of the lever, a heavy object is fixed, and there is a bullet bag at the end of the long arm for loading bombs.

When launching, use the winch to pull the long arm back almost horizontally, let it go suddenly, and the stone bag will rise rapidly.When the jib weight is fully lowered, the projectile flies out of the pouch at approximately a 45-degree angle.

However, the trebuchet is wooden after all, and requires animal and manpower, and its range is limited.

A stone bullet weighing [-] jin would not have a range of more than [-] zhang.

The Song family's barracks were patrolled by cavalry from time to time.

Its meaning is to prevent the soldiers and horses in the city from raiding.

Zhao Qiu looked at the dozens of trebuchets in the enemy camp below the city, with a smile in his eyes.

"This Song Que, even though he is a master of art of war in this world, is still limited by the times!"

Here, there are many towering trees, and there are two high mountains, so it is convenient to get stones.

As long as you bring enough carpenters and craftsmen, you will be more determined to recruit people to chop wood and move stones.

It is not difficult to build hundreds or thousands of trebuchets in one month, or even half a month.

Sure enough, ten days later, eight or nine hundred trebuchets were deployed under the city.

This speed was even shorter than what Zhao Qiu expected.

"The executive power of the Song family army is really the best in the world!"

Although Zhao Qiu thought so in his heart, there was a playful look in his eyes.

"Unfortunately, there is still one last step left, and that is to push the trebuchet to a distance of seventy feet from the top of the city!

It is precisely this step that becomes the key to victory! "

Not long after, Song Lu waved his big hand, and tens of thousands of Song Jiajun pushed the trebuchet and moved forward slowly.

In front, many soldiers of the Song family protected each other with shields.

Because the bow and crossbow with a longer range can barely reach seventy feet.

These archers holding iron shields are precisely to defend their soldiers against arrows, so that the trebuchets can be placed!

As long as these hundreds of trebuchets are installed at seventy feet, then only hundreds of trebuchets need to launch one round, or two or three rounds.

Then, the new Sui army at the head of the city will suffer huge casualties.

The rain of arrows will not be so strong.

Such a method of siege is also the best method of siege!

Unfortunately, the sharpest weapon of the new Sui army is definitely not arrows!

On the top of the city, dozens of heavy earth cannons have already been installed.

The method of earth cannon, after several reincarnations, Zhao Qiu has already found out how to make it quickly.

As long as there are craftsmen and blacksmiths, there are enough resources and raw materials.

This cannon can be made!

On the top of the city, a red kerchief on the head, red silk cloth as the shoulder scarf, tied on the chest, wearing a war robe, white training crotch, wide-cut trousers, legs hanging leg, wearing combat boots. The general of the Sui army waved his hand.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Dozens of heavy earth cannons suddenly burst out with a thunderous sound.

No matter how good the general is, no matter how familiar with the art of war on the battlefield, it is difficult to break through the limitations of the times.

Just like Sun Wu, if he was reborn in the late Qing Dynasty, he would definitely not be able to defeat foreign guns and cannons.

This is the limitation of the environment, which cannot be changed by humans.

Even if Song Que is close to a god, it won't work.

What's more, it's still early for Song Que to leave God!

A cannon rotted several feet, and shrapnel flew.

Dozens of earth cannons fired together, and in an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook.

The countless Song family soldiers holding iron shields in front were either overturned by the air waves, or wounded and killed by shrapnel.

The trebuchets were also blown to pieces.

"withdraw!"

Looking at the roaring cannons above the city, Song Que's brows were finally furrowed.

As his words fell, Song Lu on the side quickly ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops!
