Chapter 421 Parabolic method, kill the enemy's head
A basin of extremely scalding hot water was poured directly from the top of the city.
A gray soldier under the city was unprepared and had the water poured on his face. His face immediately blistered and he covered his eyes and howled in pain.
A sharp black arrow shot down from mid-air and pierced his throat in the blink of an eye.
While the blood spattered, it also helped him end his pain.
Li Xuan stood behind the city wall, her fingers hanging down.
No one noticed that the arrow in the quiver at his side was missing.
Li Xuan flicked his toes, and a piece of wood had already been kicked under the female wall.
The soldier on one side didn't even think about it. He picked up the tree with all his strength and threw it down.
The angular wood suddenly knocked down a Tianyin cultist below who was pushing a battering ram to the ground.
The moment he fell to the ground, his head was covered with blood.
However, before he could stand up, a Tianyin cultist behind him had already stepped on his chest and continued to push the battering ram to hit the city gate.
On both sides of the battering ram, four ladders were set up directly on the city wall.
One after another, Tianyin cultists were like ants, climbing crazily towards the city wall.
One arrow after another was shot directly from the city wall, piercing the necks of one Tianyin believer after another in the blink of an eye.
One corpse fell to the ground, hitting more corpses on the ground.
Behind them, more people rushed forward crazily.
The Wuzhou soldiers on the city wall pushed the ladder away from the city wall again and again, but soon someone put the ladder up again.
Bows and arrows, wood, scalding hot water, except gold juice, the Wuzhou army now uses almost all means.
There were at least two hundred Tianyin cultists who fell under the city wall, but there were still countless soldiers going crazy and rushing towards the city wall fearlessly.
Death and blood cannot even make them frown.
"Dong dong dong..." One sound after another, the huge battering ram hit the city gate heavily again and again.
The city gate kept shaking, as if it would be knocked open the next moment.
Li Xuan stood at the back end of the city wall, calmly feeling all the movements up and down the city wall.
His fingers moved slightly from time to time, and every time, an arrow disappeared from the quiver, and someone immediately had his throat pierced under the city.
Li Zhu, who was standing behind Li Xuan, silently placed the new quiver beside Li Xuan and took away the old quiver at the same time.
Everything is like playing a game.
Suddenly, she didn't know what she felt. Li Xuan suddenly raised her head and subconsciously looked to the southeast.
He murmured, "The wind is starting to get stronger."
After saying this, Li Xuan strode forward and stood directly at the crenel, lowering her head and looking down.
Under the city gate, there are densely packed heads.
Luo Yongjie had already sent out all his men who could be dispatched, and frantically attacked the city gate.
For a time, the city gate was already crumbling.
Luo Yongjie from behind was staring even more nervously, as if the city gate would be knocked open in the next moment.
Li Xuan raised her head and looked at Luo Yongjie in the dense forest in the distance.
At this time, Luo Yongjie was already unknowingly standing at the front of the dense forest that Li Xuan had deliberately set aside.
The moment Li Xuan looked at Luo Yongjie, Luo Yongjie also noticed Li Xuan's gaze.
The moment he raised his head, the long bow he was carrying appeared in his hand. Without hesitation, he opened the bow and nocked an arrow, aiming at Li Xuan and shooting an arrow at him.
The sharp arrow kept spinning in mid-air, but in the blink of an eye, it had hit Li Xuan's eyes.
Two fingers as white as jade suddenly appeared in mid-air, and the sharp arrow that was rushing forward stopped dead in mid-air as if someone was suddenly grabbing the throat.
Then, Li Xuan threw the sharp arrow downward, and in an instant, the sharp arrow had penetrated the throat of a Tianyin cultist.
Blood splattered.
Turning around, Li Xuan had already walked quickly to the back and walked down the steps to the city gate.
Standing on the steps, you can clearly see that in the barbican city, eight trebuchets are lined up and aimed at the city gate in front of you.
Next to each trebuchet are several veterans preparing to launch.
Feng Hua, the Wuzhou scholar who joined the army, stood at the back of the crowd. When he saw Li Xuan appearing on the steps of the city wall, he immediately bowed solemnly.
Li Xuan walked down from the city gate step by step, walked past each trebuchet, walked to Feng Hua's side, then turned around and said softly: "Let's start!"
"Start!" Feng Hua shouted loudly.
The next moment, all the soldiers immediately began to take action.
The rounded rolling stone was placed in the hanging basket at the rear, and the soldiers in front had already begun to check the angle again.
The angles of the trebuchet are all preset and adjusted in advance. Now let’s make the final confirmation.
After all the catapults were approved, Feng Hua waved his right hand forward fiercely.
The next moment, eight rolling stones flew straight away from the urn city, and then flew directly into the sky while grazing the city wall.
The rolling stone kept spinning in the high air, and finally quickly fell to the ground, hitting the steps seventy steps away from the city wall.
With a "bang", a head was smashed to pieces.
The rolling stone immediately hit the chest of the other person behind him, knocking him to the ground.
Eight rolling stones killed at least a dozen people with just one blow.
Before those Tianyin soldiers could react, more rolling stones had fallen directly from mid-air again.
Some of them did not control their strength enough, and the rolling stones directly hit the soldiers further behind.
This time it didn't hit anyone, it hit the ground directly. After bouncing twice, it began to roll forward quickly, and finally hit a calf directly.
With a "Kacha" sound, the calf was directly smashed: "Ah!"
The tragic wailing suddenly sounded in the military formation, and the sound was loud and clear.
Dozens of rolling stones came down, and a large piece of Luo Yongjie's soldiers immediately became empty.
When Luo Yongjie saw this scene, his eyes couldn't help but jump, and his gaze instantly jumped to the city gate.
At this time, the city gate was already on the verge of collapse, and someone directly knocked open a gap.
But now, Luo Yongjie felt an extremely dangerous feeling.
The front and back formations are disconnected.
"Hurry up, everyone, hurry up." Luo Yongjie was the first to rush forward.
This is his decision.
However, at the beginning, he was still at the front, but at some point, he fell behind.
Standing in the grove, he watched the remaining soldiers under his command rush towards the city gate like crazy.
And he was just watching nervously.
Veteran soldiers on the battlefield are always ruthless in their quest for survival.
"Bang bang bang..."
Rolling stones kept falling from mid-air, and in the blink of an eye it was covered in blood.
At this time, Luo Yongjie suddenly discovered that the position where the rolling stone fell was shrinking rapidly backwards, and quickly shrank toward the city wall.
Looking up, Luo Yongjie immediately discovered that the height at which the rolling stone was thrown was much higher than before.
This time it fell from a high place, and its power was even more terrifying.
"How did they do it?" Luo Yongjie's face was suddenly filled with astonishment. He had never thought that a catapult could be used like this.
This was completely different from what he had thought before.
…
Behind the city gate, in the urn city, Li Xuan calmly watched the city gate being knocked out by wooden stakes to create a gap, and he could even clearly see the struggling faces of the Tianyin soldiers behind.
But at this moment, he just glanced lightly, and then raised his head directly.
"Trebuchet, raise the height one space."
Li Xuan gave the order, and the trebuchet was immediately thrown upward, and then hit the Tianyin soldiers outside hard.
Immediately, his head was smashed, bleeding, bones and tendons were broken.
