Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 414 Elite Ballista
Of the [-] soldiers Ma Chao sent this time, apart from some old and weak soldiers, there were still [-] elite soldiers.

As an elite soldier, the tactical literacy is naturally much higher.Moreover, as an elite, there will always be privileges in some respects.

For example, as soon as the two thousand soldiers rushed out, the Yizhou soldiers who were still crowded under Tongguan and grabbing the ladder suddenly had to give up their place obediently.

The first one to attack the Tongguan wall will always get a little more rewards.But the strength of those old and weak is indeed much lower than that of the elite of the Yizhou Army. If you want to grab that reward, you need to have that strength.

Moreover, the elite Yizhou Army did not swarm under Tongguan like the soldiers sent before.

Those elites, however, separated out five hundred soldiers, armed with bows and arrows, and kept watching the Tongguan wall.At that time, as long as the defenders on the wall take out the equipment for defending the city, the bows and arrows in their hands will pour arrows towards the wall.

And at this time, Ye Mo also felt that this bait was already enough, if there was more, it might be time to support himself to death.

"Pass down the order, the archers will aim at the enemy's archers and attack, don't worry about not having enough arrows. For the rest, clean up the corpses on the city wall as soon as possible, and prepare to roll stones and trees!" Seeing that the soldiers sent by the Yizhou Army have all entered Ye Mo also issued his order decisively when the strike range of his side was exceeded.

After Ye Mo's order, Qu Yi and the others dispersed to deliver orders and make preparations.The battle, at this moment, has just begun.

It is also easy to clean up the corpses on the city wall. Most of them are the corpses of the Yizhou Army anyway, so just throw them directly from the wall into the pass.

What is a little more troublesome is the accumulation of blood on the closed wall. The blood from the corpses of nearly a thousand Yizhou soldiers directly stained the closed wall red.And the defender standing on it, if one is not careful, it is easy to fall down.

However, fortunately, the industry in this era is not very developed, so the city bricks used to build the wall are a little rough, but it has the effect of anti-slip.Of course, this does not rule out that the original builders designed it this way.

Under the wall, the [-] elite Yizhou troops who had been separated looked at their companions climbing on the ladder and were about to attack Tongguan. The envy in their hearts could not be mentioned.

In the past, it seemed that the old and weak could easily attack the walls of Tongguan, not to mention the elite at this time.In their minds, it must be a battle!
It's just a pity that this time, it was their turn to Luezhen's mission, and they just flew away with a good reward.

But soon, these soldiers realized that they were wrong.What flew was not just a reward, but also raindrops of arrows.However, those arrows did not fly away, but flew towards them.

Tongguan is originally a dangerous pass, and the pass wall is naturally extremely high.If the soldiers of the Yizhou Army want to use bows and arrows to support the soldiers who are attacking the city on their side, they naturally need to get as close to the wall as possible, after all, they are throwing arrows from the bottom up.

But for the archers on the wall, shooting from the top to the bottom is simply not a good thing.The separated archers of the Yizhou Army were almost within the shooting range of all the archers in Tongguan.

After the five hundred archers of the Yizhou Army suffered the first round of blows, nearly a hundred soldiers fell.Of course, not all of these soldiers were shot directly, but more of them were hit by several arrows and were almost nailed to the ground, but they hadn't died yet.

After a round of blows, although the archers of the Yizhou Army were frightened, they were not to the point of being frightened.Picking up the bows and arrows in their hands, they will start to fight back.

However, before they could throw the arrows in their hands, Tongguan's second round of blows came immediately.

This time, dozens of soldiers were shot and killed.

But when the archers of the Yizhou Army finally threw out the arrows in their hands, they missed the target. Most of them did not fly over the wall, but caused a little blow to the soldiers who were tackling the key.

As for the part of the arrows that flew up the wall, only a small part hit the defenders in Tongguan, and those arrows, when they hit the defenders, their strength was greatly weakened.Therefore, this round, only a few unlucky ones were hit to the point and fell on the wall.

The Tongguan defenders shot and killed the Yizhou Army archers who were passing through the pass for ten consecutive rounds, and they also killed those soldiers directly.Under the rain of ten rounds of arrows, only a dozen or so people could still run.It was these people who also saw that the situation was not good before, so they began to flee to the left and right.

As early as the five rounds of shooting by the archers in Tongguan, the other defenders also moved the rolling stones and trees that had been prepared on the wall of the pass, and there was no need to aim. Two people.

Under Tongguan, Ma Chao looked at the Tongguan defenders who suddenly showed their power, and his mouth opened wide.Tongguan still has such strength at this time!

Guo Jia, on the other hand, didn't feel surprised at the Yizhou Army who kept falling to the ground at this time, but showed a weird smile on his face.

After Ma Chao was frightened, he also turned his head and wanted to ask Guo Jia for advice.But when he turned his head, he saw the smile on Guo Jia's face.

Immediately, Ma Chao's face suddenly turned cold. "Military advisor, my soldiers in Yizhou have suffered heavy losses now, but I don't know why the military advisor is so happy?" In his words, Ma Chao's murderous intent was not concealed at all.

However, Guo Jia was unmoved, with that smile still on his face. "Now that the imperial army has been tricked, Guo Jia is naturally happy."

When Ma Chao heard what Guo Jia said, the coldness on his face still remained, but his tone was calmer. "Since the military adviser said so, then the military adviser will talk about it, how can you tell that the imperial army has been tricked?"

"My lord, look at the closed gate of Tongguan. On the closed wall of Tongguan, there are rolling stones and logs thrown down everywhere. Only at the closed gate, there is not a stone or a log." It is naturally not aimless to conclude that the Tongguan defenders have been tricked.

After hearing what Guo Jia said, Ma Chao looked towards the closed gate of Tongguan, and the result was exactly as Guo Jia said. "Even so, what does that mean?"

At this time, although Ma Chao still didn't understand the reason why Guo Jia said that, at least, the doubt Ma Chao had just had about Guo Jia was gone.

"The cleanliness of the closed gate can only show that the Tongguan defenders have plans to go out and pursue them. In this way, our plan to lure the Tongguan defenders out is a success." The only way to lure the Tongguan defenders out , Tongguan can be won at the least cost.

But now it seems that Tongguan's defenders are indeed planning to attack.

In Tongguan, there were more than a dozen soldiers who pushed out two elite crossbow carts from the warehouse.

It has been upgraded to the highest level of elite ballista that can currently be upgraded, with a cheating range of 1000 to [-] feet.

You know, in Ye Mo's previous life, even in the Song Dynasty, the bow with the divine arm, which had been improved countless times, had a range of only eight hundred feet.

And the range of 1000 two hundred feet is enough to shoot Ma Chao from the wall of Tongguan.Moreover, for the elite ballista, to kill does not need to hit the enemy directly, but after the giant arrow from the ballista hits the ground, countless iron pieces shot out from the body of the arrow will kill the enemy.

Ma Chao and Guo Jia didn't know at this time that the danger had already arrived.
