Chapter 318

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

Due to the difference in the technology trees of the two sides, the catapults on the Han army 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 mechanical unit, drawing a perfect arc in the air, crossing a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, and smashing onto the city wall of Julu City!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

……

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

This is the terrifying aspect 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.

There was no help for it; the Yellow Turbans were just a force that launched an uprising relying on commoners and mountain bandits.

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

810 In building such large-scale siege engines, whether in quantity or quality, they could not compare with the Great Han court at all.

The advanced catapults displayed great power, and the main effect was not the damage caused to Julu City and the suppression of the Yellow Turban archer units on the city wall.

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

Facing the countless rolling stones coming like thunder, anyone would feel their heart tremble.

Once they felt fear, their physical functions would decline, and the defense would naturally slacken a lot.

Then.

The Han army's 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, ready!"

"Target the Han army 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 it.

Once there was no siege tower to lay a drawbridge that could span the moat, it would be very 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 already prepared on the siege tower also struck.

They were all the most elite archer units in Jizhou; not to mention hitting a willow leaf from a hundred paces, it was not a big problem to ensure every arrow hit its mark.

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

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

At present, the units of both sides were elites, and the ordinary players who joined the Yellow Turban camp had no qualifications to occupy the city tower for defense.

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

Therefore, under the counterattack, the Yellow Turbans were clearly 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 to place troops, and each layer was equipped with a hundred elite archers, totaling 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 specially made refined iron baffles, which could directly block most of the attacks coming 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 the enemy had been using to display great power.

Besides that.

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

Once the Yellow Turbans focused their main attention on destroying the siege towers, these scaling ladder vehicle formations could build a road to Julu City from all sides.

At the same time, the battering rams and armored chariots (chariots that can prevent arrows) in the rear had also begun to move slowly.

As long as a passage was built on the moat around the siege tower, 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 screens covering, artillery stones bombarding, 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's blood boil.

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 could 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 did not have the visual effect as shocking as the one in front of him.

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

Su Li was shocked by the grand scale 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, and by the way, joining in to get more merit.

It's just a pity...

Now, don't look at the Han army appearing to have the advantage by relying on siege engines.

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

But Zhang Bao has not appeared yet.

As long as Zhang Bao appears.

Su Li felt that the current advantage might be instantly reversed!

There was no help for it; since feeling the power of the Earthly Fiend Star 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, the unknown is often the most terrifying!
