Jingyang City was sleepless all night. Early the next morning, Nannan's senior guard, Ashidewu, led the 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!”
Nannan was laughing loudly, laughing at Luo Qiu's overestimation of his own strength. Ashidewu did not sip and even urged his horse to take a few more steps forward. He sneered again and again and said from the corner of his eyes,
"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.
"Trap technique!”
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.
The city wall was also filled with surprised voices. The non-special-class manager looked at Luo Qiu with a bit of eagerness.
A few hundred meters away, an arrow shot down the enemy's general!
How magnificent!
"Attack!"
How could anyone in Nannan have Ashide as their surname? One of the deputy generals waved his hand and gave the order.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Nannan formed a battle formation every few hundred people and charged aggressively at the city gate.
However, the South-South people were not good at sieging cities, so nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses charged forward in a casual manner, standing in extremely dense rows.
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 entire battlefield. Nannan's troops had always been fighting 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 South-South camp could be heard!
Just the first wave of three ballistae had caused Nannan to lose nearly 1,500 men in the blink of an eye!
"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 though Nannan had many iron-headed children, they were all afraid. Their eyes were red and they had already started to push and push, wanting to 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 large crossbow bolts, with many corpses strung on them, were dragged along the ground at an extremely fast speed while the South-South people were busy taking care of themselves…
