Jingyang City had a sleepless night. Early the next morning, the Turkic general Ashidewu Meisiu led his army and stood in front of the city gate.
Flags were fluttering in the wind, and nearly ten thousand non-humankind warriors were eyeing them like tigers eyeing their prey. Even the neighing of warhorses sounded like thunder!
Ashidewu stepped out of his horse and looked at the city wall contemptuously." Tang general, surrender or die?”
Luo Qiu laughed on the city wall." If you take another step forward, do you believe that I can take your life with an arrow?”
The distance between the two sides was several hundred meters. The range of an ordinary bow and arrow was only one to two hundred meters, less than half of it! Even if the arrow could be shot, how could it have any lethality?
Moreover, he wasn't dead. He couldn't afford to offend him, so why couldn't he hide?
"Brat, you don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!”
The Turks were all laughing, laughing at Luo Qiu's overconfidence. Ashidewu didn't take a step forward on his horse, sneering as he said,
"How is it? How are you going to take my head?"
"Watch carefully!"
Luo Qiu took down the big bow on her back and took an arrow from the side. She wrapped a string around the arrow and added a few tiny iron pieces to the arrowhead.
"This…?"
Feng Li didn't understand and looked at Mo Hua. Who knew that the old man was also confused.
"Qiu, it's true that you'll be able to shoot the arrow further by doing this, but the accuracy of the arrow will be greatly reduced! Moreover, this lethality…" Mo Hua said.
"Traps! Hehe, just watch!"
Luo Qiu found a spot and stood on top of the wall, standing in line with the sun.
Ashidewu didn't want to see what tricks this kid was going to play, but when he looked over, he was dazzled by the dazzling sunlight.
"Sou!"
A soft sound came from the top of the wall. Feng Li looked at Luo Qiu with admiration." Good arm strength!"”
From the sound of the arrow, one could tell that this was a hard bow, no less than three piculs!
Ashidewu could vaguely see something flying towards him, but the sunlight blocked his vision. When the arrow approached, he cried out in surprise.
It was already too late to react at this time. Even if Ashidiwu had not been on the battlefield for more than ten years, his perception of danger was extremely sharp…
"Puff!"
The sharp sound of an arrow piercing flesh rang out. This arrow pierced straight into Ashidewu's chest. He only had time to let out a miserable cry before falling off his horse.
The few deputies who were still mocking Luo Qiu turned pale with fright and hurriedly went forward to check. Ashidewu was already covered in blood, his face was pale, and his eyes were half-closed. It seemed that he would not live long.
A series of surprised cries sounded from the city walls. Many soldiers looked at Luo Qiu with a bit of enthusiasm.
A few hundred meters away, an arrow shot down the enemy's general!
How magnificent!
"Attack!"
How could anyone in the Turks have the surname Ashide? One of the deputy generals waved his hand and gave the order.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Every few hundred Turks formed a battle formation and aggressively charged at the city gates.
However, the Turks were not skilled at sieging cities, and the nearly ten thousand soldiers charged forward with a single shout, their ranks extremely dense.
Some of them might even be pushed to the ground and trampled to death if they were too slow!
Luo Qiu sneered when she saw this and said in a low voice," Release!”
The ballistae opened its ferocious mouth!
There were three ballistae on top of the wall, each of which could shoot sixty large crossbows and countless small ones. Just to drive them would require no less than ten people!
"Buzz! Weng! Buzz!"
Deafening sounds rang out as the sharp and large crossbow bolts shot out…
The ballista bolts covered the battlefield. The Turkic soldiers had always fought on the grasslands, so when had they ever seen such a formation? For a moment, he was stunned on the spot!
A large crossbow bolt could string seven or eight people on it like a candied haws, and its momentum did not decrease as it swept across a large area!
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
"Save me!"
...
Not long after, the screams of the Turkic camp rang out!
In the blink of an eye, the first wave of three ballistae had already caused the Turks to lose more than one thousand five hundred men!
"Spread out!"
Some of the more quick-witted ones hurriedly shouted. They saw another black mass rapidly attacking from the city wall.
Those were the small crossbows loaded on the repeating ballista!
"Get lost!"
"Don't block the way!"
...
Even the Turkic children were terrified, their eyes bloodshot as they began to shove and retreat.
Quite a few people were pushed to the ground and never got up again!
"Retract!"
With Luo Qiu's order, the windlass on the ballista began to turn!
The ten-foot-long crossbow bolts had thick ropes tied to their ends, allowing them to be quickly retracted after being shot. This design was proposed by Luo Qiu, and it was extremely ingenious!
Nearly one hundred and seventy ballista bolts, with many corpses strung to them, were being dragged along the ground at high speed while the Turks were busy taking care of themselves…
