Chapter 158

Two thousand meters!

One thousand meters!

Eight hundred meters!

In this world, the effective distance of a primary catapult is three hundred meters!

There is a certain distance bonus effect on the city wall, which can reach five hundred meters!

And the catapults guarded in Julu City reached the intermediate level, and their range on the city wall was as high as eight hundred meters.

So when the Han army's front formation reached this effective range from the city wall, Huang Shao's raised right hand suddenly fell!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

All of a sudden, accompanied by the thunderous roar of rolling stones being ejected, the battle of Julu City officially began!

Ju Shou's side also ordered several catapults to be pushed to the foot of Julu City.

Due to the reasons of the technology trees of both sides, the catapults on the Han army's side were obviously more advanced.

Even without the advantage of the city wall, they still threw dozens of pounds of rolling stones under the operation of the equipment unit, drawing a perfect arc in the air, crossing a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, and smashed onto the city wall of Julu City!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Also accompanied by the sound of rolling stones like thunder, an arrow tower of Julu City was hit by a rolling stone, directly smashing a corner, and dozens of unlucky Yellow Turban archers inside were smashed to death on the spot.

This is the terror of advanced siege engines, occupying an absolute advantage in the siege battle.

Although there were two catapults in the Yellow Turban army, the quantity was not as many as their Han army, and the power was not as strong as theirs.

There was no way; the Yellow Turbans were ultimately just a force that launched an uprising relying on ordinary people and mountain bandits.

How much cultural and technological reserve could such a unit have?

Advanced catapults displayed divine might, and the damage caused to Julu City and the suppression of the Yellow Turban archer units on the city wall were not the main effects.

The more important effect was to lower the morale of the Yellow Turban army.

Facing the countless rolling stones that came like thunder, anyone would feel trembling and cold.

Once they felt fear, their physical functions would decline, and the defense would naturally be much more lax.

Then.

The siege tower, which was nearly half the height of the Julu city wall, also slowly approached the city wall of Julu City under the cover of catapults and front formation troops.

"Catapults, archers, prepare!"

"Target the Han army's siege tower, destroy it!"

On the city wall, Huang Shao and Gao Sheng were also ordering the Yellow Turbans to set the target as the siege tower, attempting to destroy the siege tower.

Once there is no siege tower to lay a drawbridge that can span the moat, it would be difficult for their Han army to approach the Julu city wall, or rather, they would have to pay a great price.

However...

At this time, the archers who had been prepared on the siege tower also took action.

They were all the most elite archer units in Jizhou, not to mention shooting a willow leaf from a hundred paces, it was not a problem to shoot without missing.

Almost at the same time, they nocked an arrow, and it was slowly pulled into a full moon shape.

Then, while the enemy launched an attack, they shot arrows, forming a sky-covering arrow curtain, covering the Yellow Turban units on the city wall.

At present, the units of both sides are elites, and the ordinary players who joined the Yellow Turban camp have no qualifications to occupy the city tower position to defend.

However, this type of Yellow Turban unit, at the same level, is weaker than ordinary Han army units.

Therefore, under the confrontation, the Yellow Turbans were obviously at a disadvantage, falling to the ground in swathes, with arrows stuck in their bodies, and in the smoke of war, their eyes gradually lost their luster.

On those few siege towers, each had five layers of areas for placing troops, and each layer was equipped with a hundred elite archers, adding up to thousands of troops, spread across each tower, suppressing the enemy's attack directly in front with the most intensive firepower.

Besides that.

Around the siege tower, there were also specially made refined iron baffles, which could directly block most of the attacks from the enemy.

Even the catapults on the Yellow Turban side could not hurt them at all.

And what made the Yellow Turbans even more uncomfortable was that they not only had to face the firepower suppression on the siege tower, but also had to face the arrows shot by the Han army's front formation, as well as the advanced catapults that had been displaying divine might.

Besides that.

All around, there were also Han army ladder vehicle formations charging.

Once the Yellow Turbans focused their main attention on destroying the siege tower, these ladder vehicle formations could set up a path to Julu City from all sides.

At the same time, the ramming vehicles and the covered siege wagons (war wagons that can prevent arrows) in the rear had also begun to move slowly.

As long as the siege tower set up a passage on the surrounding moat, these two huge siege engines could approach Julu City recklessly and destroy the city wall or city gate of Julu City.

The spectacular scene of countless arrow curtains covering, artillery stones bombing, and siege engines blooming everywhere could definitely be considered the grandest battle Su Li had seen since coming to this world.

If this were on the screen, it would definitely be called an epic blockbuster.

It makes people boil with blood.

For a player lord like Su Li who participated in it, it was definitely an unprecedented shock and inspiration.

At this stage, no player lord can launch such a large-scale battle. Even before in Zhuoxian, when millions of player troops and Yellow Turbans surrounded and killed Liu, Guan, and Zhang, it was not as shocking as the visual effect in front of him.

"This, this is the most real war in this world!"

Su Li was shocked by the grandeur of this battle.

Just a battle for a commandery city like Julu could produce such a macro effect.

I don't know what the battle for the state capital, Yecheng, which is currently underway, will look like.

He was looking forward to it.

Looking forward to ending the war in Julu as soon as possible, rushing to Yecheng to see it, and by the way, joining it to get more military merit.

It's a pity...

Now, don't look at the Han army seemingly occupying an advantage by relying on siege engines.

If they continue to fight like this, they will break through Julu City sooner or later.

But Zhang Bao hasn't appeared yet.

As long as Zhang Bao appears.

Su Li feels that the current advantage is likely to be instantly reversed!

There is no way; since feeling the power of the Star Constellation Earthly Fiend Art.

He instinctively developed a fear of an existence like Zhang Bao.

Not to mention that Zhang Bao hasn't even shown his face yet.

It invisibly gives people a sense of oppression.

After all, for people, often the unknown is the most terrifying!
