Chapter 317 (2/2)

As soon as Liu Pan's voice fell, he heard loud noises coming from Cao's barracks on the opposite side. He saw small black spots flying out of the camp in the distance. As these little black spots fly closer and closer, the soldiers at the crossing can also see the true features of these small black spots, which are huge stones.

”Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom

Suddenly, dozens of loud noises were heard. Almost all of these stones fell on the pass. All of a sudden, the stones flew across the gate. Fortunately, Liu Pan gave orders in time to let the soldiers use big shields to protect them. But Rao is so, there are still dozens of soldiers were injured by flying stones, and the wall just repaired yesterday night was also smashed into a crack.Liu Pan, who was knocked down by his own soldiers, stood up again, shook off the stones on his body, and raised his head again to look out of the pass. Every time Cao Cao began to attack, he would use a catapult to attack first. Liu Pan was not surprised.

”General Liu! General Liu Wei Yan's cry came from behind. When Cao Cao retreated, Liu Pan let Wei Yan, who had been working all night, have a rest for a while. After Cao Cao attacked, he still got up and didn't know whether he was asleep.

Liu Pantou did not return, and he called out directly: ”Wen Chang! Here I am

Following the sound, Wei Yan comes to Liu Pan's back. Liu Pan looks at it. Sure enough, Wei Yan's two big black circles are still there. Liu Pan said directly, ”Wen Chang! You'd better go down and have a rest! I'm here! It's OK! ”

Wei Yan shook his head and said, ”it doesn't matter! I'm not sleepy After saying that, he turned his head and looked out of the pass. Suddenly he frowned and said, ”it seems that Cao Cao can't help it. It seems that he is trapped in the camp of Bingzhou army.”

”Trapped in the camp!” Liu Pan also frowned and squinted at the grass army camp in front of him. Sure enough, out of the camp of Cao army, a black armored infantry, armed with shield and broadsword, was marching in a neat line to Hangu pass. It was the trapped camp that Lu Bu had seen before!

Although Liu is not good at fighting, it seems that Liu is good at fighting

Wei Yan couldn't figure out why. He just frowned at the legendary camp that could compete with the Dragon general camp, but he didn't know what medicine Cao Cao was selling!

”Anyway! Be prepared to defend! Let's see what's going on Liu Pan is really do not understand, but still ordered to prepare those garrison equipment are carried on the barrier.

The so-called siege equipment, in fact, did not exist in Hangu pass. They were all made according to Chen Ren's suggestion. Among them are the catapult and the small catapult.

In fact, the catapult, in fact, is a kind of large crossbow, but under the crossbow there is a bracket and four wheels for easy movement. The catapult has a long range of attack and strong attack power. It is a wonderful weapon to defend the wall. But this kind of catapult also has a disadvantage, that is, it needs special arrows, ordinary arrows are not long enough.

As for the small-sized catapult, it is similar to the one designed by Liu Ye for Cao Cao, but this is not a copy of Liu Ye's design in the eastern Wu Dynasty. This kind of catapult was designed when the siege camp was just set up more than ten years ago. However, at that time, only a few shots were fired, Lv Bu was scared to escape, so it was not used. Later, after being mentioned by Chen Ren, these catapults were made smaller and smaller and placed at the head of the city. They could be used as city guarding equipment. Only in this way can we have the present small-scale stone throwing vehicles.

However, due to the smaller size of the catapult, the attack distance of the catapult has also been greatly shortened, which is only about ten steps away from the ordinary bow and arrow. However, this kind of small catapult has an advantage, that is, it has a strong range of attack. When a stone hits the ground, it can cause great damage to the surrounding soldiers.

Before that, Cao Pang didn't use strong weapons to attack Liu. But this time saw Cao Cao even fall into the camp sent out, Liu Pan's heart really felt a little uneasy.

Wei Yan was also nervous, but he calmly arranged for the soldiers at the gate to place all the garrison equipment, and he also did not forget to cover all the garrison equipment with coarse cloth to avoid exposing the target. This also can launch a sudden attack at the most critical time, causing the greatest damage to Cao Jun.

Outside the Shanhaiguan Pass, after nearly 100000 trapped people stepped out of the camp, a group of people slowly came out of the camp of Cao's army. However, Liu Pan and Wei Yan were very unfamiliar with this army. The whole army was dressed in light brown armour and had neither guns nor knives, nor shields. It's just something on the back, but because the distance is too far, they can't see clearly. They looked at each other and shook their heads, saying that they had never seen the army.
