After Gao Wupi came to inspect, the uproar of Qi people calmed down a little in the car barrier. There were several dead Qi people lying on the ground. Gao Wupi frowned and bypassed them, and carefully passed the car barrier. part, let someone quickly fill it with wooden boards.

"Maybe if there are a few more flying stones, this car barrier will collapse. It's better to abandon it." No matter how much good things Gao Wupi said, Xian Shi was unwilling to stay here any more. is no longer safe.

"The prince asks you to hold on for a while longer, and he will send someone to replace you, but this car barrier is at the key point of the front. You must shoot arrows to suppress the attack of Zhao Jun's forward, and you must not give up!"

Before the words were finished, someone suddenly exclaimed: "The stone is here again!" The body shrank in fright and fled in all directions.

A moment later, the rumble of stone bullets hitting the chariots came from the chariot where Xianshi was standing. The entire chariot of the city trembled violently. Several chariots that were hit broke and collapsed. The erected scull couldn't withstand the terrifying impact, and was directly smashed into the air.

Gao and Xian were a little late to avoid, there was a loud "bang", and the truck stack in front of Gao Wupi and Xianshi suffered heavy damage. Without personal protection this time, Xian Shi was stabbed in the body by the fragments of Che Yu. The blue veins on his face burst out, and he covered his neck and made a hoarse sound. Gao Wupi took a closer look and finally saw his neck clearly. A shard of wood was deeply inserted into it, and bright red blood was beating along the edge of the shard.

Afterwards, Xian Shi's body slipped softly, blood flowed from his throat, and the others were still shouting, his head drooping, and there was no response.

Gao Wupi was trembling with fear, and the Qi army inside and outside the car barrier was also in chaos. They didn't know how to defend. Looking at the situation in front of him, Gao Wupi bit his lip and ran out desperately with his personal followers, no longer ignoring Guoxia's military orders.

Because he knows that the next attack will come soon!

Sure enough, in the next moment, as if there was a thunderstorm on the ground, a series of dull stony sounds rang out one after another on the river bank behind Zhao Jun's battle. From time to time, flying stones would fall in the air, causing the hearts of those hiding behind the car barriers to jump out. The archers no longer had the courage to show their heads and shoot arrows. Many people were lying on the ground, waiting for the stones to rain before moving out. As far as possible, they now just want to get out of the car barriers that are no longer safe.

The way of war in front of them is very different from what they once knew. A hundred steps away, it is no longer safe!

...

On the bank of the river, Gongshu Ban showed a satisfied smile.

After several salvos, there was a continuous loud noise from the Qi army's chariots being blasted open, and there were many screams and panic calls. In front of the ballista, the complacent chariot of the Qi people. Not worth mentioning anymore.

He was very satisfied with the actual combat effect of the ballista. Although the accuracy still needs to be improved, there are few talents in the army who can control the ballista. Fortunately, the enemy's car bases stretched hundreds of paces and were extremely conspicuous. Even if they missed, it would also affect the Qi people next to them.

Different from what Guoxia prayed for, the ballista made by Gongshuban could not only be moved to another location, but also had a free-rotating base that could freely rotate in place, directing the projectile of death at any target within two hundred steps. !

Its core is a sturdy torsion spring group, each spring group drives a crossbow arm, the end of the crossbow arm is connected to the bowstring, and the middle of the bowstring is a woven mesh bag that accommodates projectiles. There is a long dovetail slot on the upper side of the beam. A slider with a long guide rail can slide forward and backward along the long slot. The rear of the slider is equipped with a set of exquisite firing mechanism. Craftsmen can easily lock and release the bowstring, and the end of the beam is equipped with a winch, and the user can move the slider by pulling the handle or dragging the rope.

Use the high-lying river bank to overlook the enemy's battle formation, confirm the shooting target, and then throw dense projectiles at the enemy's bunker to destroy it with lightning speed! This is their tactics, a tactic that is enough to drastically change the way of war in this era!

What's more, the ballista can attack more than just the enemy's vehicle base...

...

After the ballista bombed the frontal Qiren chariot several times, Zhao Wuxi could see the tragic state of the chariot with the naked eye. until it stops.

"That is to say, after only four shots, the ballista made a car base of the Qi people lose their ability to fight." Although this was the first time the ballista stunned the enemy, its terrifying attack power was also evident.

Zhao Wuchun smiled and said, "It's really a weapon in the field. Although it doesn't cause much damage at one time, in this war, it will be a nightmare for the Qi people. Haven't the Qi people always been proud of their strong bows and archers? Haven’t you always liked to be at the top of a hundred paces so that people can’t lift their heads? This time, let them know that I can harvest their lives at a distance of two hundred paces!”

Xiang Luyou, who was next to him, had a dry mouth. His friend when he was a boy was able to create such a terrifying weapon. He swallowed to moisten his throat, and then asked, "Your lord wants to let the son-like commander the people of Qi. Twenty temporary car barriers destroyed one by one?"

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome, and there are not enough ballistas, so they can only bombard one area. Once they are used separately, there will be no such momentum. Now that Qi's morale has been taken away, it is a good opportunity to attack. Hit the frontal chariots with a few rounds, and completely crush them! Then cooperate with the bows and crossbows and infantry to attack the Qi army formation, I want to see the drums of Guozi and Gaozi fall apart here!"

...

A ten-pound round pebble was shot at a perfect angle, like a sharp blade in the hands of a ghost, it smashed the arm of a soldier of the same people, and then a cloud of sand and dust exploded on the ground and bounced off the ground. The famous Qi soldier's thigh was broken, and then he flew backward without a pause, knocking the right arm and half of the shoulder of a Qi soldier holding the command flag into the air.

His shoulders showed pale scapulae, with some torn muscles remaining, and blood poured out of the huge wound like a fountain. The culprit jumped a few times on the mud with the flesh and blood of several people, and finally stopped, and regained the motionlessness that a pebble should have.

"Ah!" The screams of exhaustion sounded at this moment ~lightnovelpub.net~ which made people sound panicked.

The accuracy of the first-generation ballista was really a problem. The bombardment of the car base was acceptable, but it was easy to miss the army formation in motion. Therefore, every time the direction is reversed, a test shot is required, so only this stone bullet is thrown in a round, but it is enough to make the Qi people's army terrified.

The front line where the Qi people were not attacked also fluctuated. Many people turned their heads and glanced at the place where they were hit with lingering fears. The stumps and pieces of armor were scattered all over the front line. Struggling, the other few have no movement.

Under the orders of the military officials, they resumed their calm and continued to advance to resist the attack of the Zhao army. But their footsteps have been hesitant for a long time, and the hand holding the spear and halberd is shaking, and the person with the shield subconsciously raises the shield covered with three layers of cowhide, even though they know that this thing may not be able to stop the whistling. Flying Stones.

This Qi soldier is a veteran of the National Clan. In the face of sharp arrows, spears, and even the fierce eyes of the enemy, they are mentally prepared, but the flying stones that fall from the sky are unheard of!

War has never been so terrifying, so unfamiliar... (To be continued.)
