    On top of Yangguan City Tower, Huo Tang held his hands on the wall and looked through the densely packed Parthian troops, directly landing on the positions of Eurobazo and others.  There was no obvious sign there, but Huo Tang could intuitively feel that Prime Minister Xi'an, who even his brother must take seriously, was looking at him in the same position.

    With Eurobazo¡¯s order, the resting camp spread out for several miles slowly moved.  At the front are several rows of infantry holding giant shields. This kind of shield is so big that it requires three Parthian soldiers to support it. Originally, the Parthian army did not have such giant shields. These are targeted in the battle against the Han army in the past six months.  It was manufactured to deal with the original Han army's standard ballistae.

    After the giant shield soldiers, there is the huge metal pendulum that needs hundreds of people to push it.  Because the equipment was huge, it restricted the movement of the Parthian army. This huge siege equipment and the Parthian army array moved slowly like a snail on the earth.  But even so slowly, the huge formation pressed towards Yangguan like a mountain falling.

    The soldiers of the Hexi Army above Yangguan nervously clenched their weapons, and many generals above Yangguan also tightened their fists.

    "Mo Lian, tell the disciples of the Mo family to start. The general highly respects you. I hope you will not disappoint the general. Whether you can restore the glory of the Mohists depends on this!" Huo Tang was still looking at Yangguan.  The voice of the Parthian Army outside the city has fallen into the ears of the swordsman disciple beside him.

    Originally, most of the disciples of An Pavilion were orphans or descendants of Mohist disciples, and most of them only had one code name.  However, after Huo Tang became a tycoon, he asked all the disciples who had no names to change their surname to Mo. Even the old pavilion master now has a new name, Mo Jia.

    Mo Lian didn't say anything, he just nodded slightly to Huo Tang, then turned around and walked away and walked down the tower.

    "Mr. Dayuan, do you need us to go out of the city to fight first? At this moment, the Parthian army is moving slowly and is hindered by their own equipment. The armored cavalry cannot take advantage of it. This is a good time for our army to fight." After Mo Lian left, Bai Zheng said respectfully at the side  asked.

    From the perspective of a tactical expert, Bai Zheng found that although the Parthian army had a strict formation at this moment, it also restricted the movement of their own armored cavalry, which was a good opportunity to launch an attack.  The way of war is to attack and defend. If you only defend the city blindly, sooner or later the city will not be able to defend it.

    "Just wait and see what happens." Huo Tang said four words lightly, but didn't explain much.  In fact, she only knew a little bit about the equipment used by the Mohist disciples from the descriptions, and she was not sure how effective they would be in actual combat.

    "No, my subordinates are talking too much!" Bai Zheng said with his head lowered. Hexi generals like him did not dare to look down upon this woman.

    "But let your people be prepared. In addition to the army defending the city, prepare another army to leave the city." Bai Zheng retreated and Huo Tang added.

    This is not the first time that the Hexi Army has faced this kind of siege equipment from the Parthian Army. Although there is currently no effective way to restrain it, Huo Guang also used hand-to-hand methods to compete with the Parthian Army for this kind of siege equipment under the city.  , thereby delaying the progress of their use.

    ??In the open space in Yangguan City where no one can see it.  Mohist disciples were waiting in formation around those huge chariots. In front of each chariot, there was a Mohist disciple holding red and blue flags in his left and right hands. And at the front, a modified Jinglan even exceeded  The height of Yangguan City Wall.  There is also a Mohist disciple holding a red and blue flag on the well, watching the movements of the Parthian army outside the city.

    "Pass the order from the master and start taking action." Mo Lian walked down the tower and stood under the well, showing the Black Eyebrow Sword in his hand to the people above.  The sound spread and could be heard by almost all Mohist disciples.

    There was no response from the person on the well. He was facing the outside of the city, and then he raised his right arm flat, and the blue flag in his hand was also flat on the side of his arm.  The Mohist disciples above the well moved their flags, and all the Mohists holding flags in the open space in the city also made the same move.

    Almost at the same time, the poets in front of each car also made the same move.  Then two people stepped on each side of the car. A total of four people grasped the two winches on both sides of the car in a uniform manner. The four people turned the winches with force at the same time. Under the action of the gears and chain pulleys, the entire Yangguan  There was an endless sound of metal friction, the sound was like thunder, and even the Parthian army outside the city heard it.

    "What is this sound?" Many monarchs around Eurobazo heard it. This sound was very strange, but it was clearly made by a large number of iron instruments. As an empire that has developed iron civilization to the extreme  , they really hope to see what happens behind the wall.

    Eurobazo also frowned slightly. The smarter a person is, the more afraid he is of unknown things. Things he doesn't understand often make him feel uneasy.

      The blue command flag changed again. The right arm raised flat suddenly stretched forward, and the command flag pointed diagonally at the sky. However, this angle did not seem to be random. It seemed that the angle of the arm's tilt represented something.

    The winch continued to rotate, and a huge lever like a spoon on the car was gradually bent.  When the blue command flag pointed diagonally towards the sky, another Mohist disciple who was a little further away from the car first looked at the command flag, and then his eyes fell on a beam on the side of the car.

    If you look carefully, you will find that there are countless scales on the beam.  And every curvature of the huge curved lever will correspond to the scale on the beam.

    "Stop put on the oil bag." The voices calling for stop kept coming and going. Although the calls were made at different times, if you look closely at the end, you will find that all the car levers are stopped at the same angle.  Following the order, the Mohist disciples who were turning the winch inserted two thick iron bolts into the winch to secure it.  Then someone put a skin bag filled with ointment into the spoon at one end of the lever.

    When all this was completed, the man on the well finally raised the red flag in his left hand. The red flag was raised high and placed in the same position as the blue flag.  At this time, the burly Mohist disciples behind the chariot raised a huge hammer in their hands.

    The hammer was raised high and aimed at an iron rivet on the car.  One end of the spoon was pulled by an iron chain and fixed by the rivet bolt.

    The red and blue flags in Yangguan suddenly waved down heavily.  Just as the flag fell, the hammers also fell heavily. Each hammer hit the rivets accurately. There was a uniform "clang" sound, and all the rivets were knocked down, and then  It was the sound of densely packed chains being dragged rapidly, and the sound of whistling across the sky.

    Hundreds of skin bags were thrown high, leaving only an afterimage in the air, and then flew over the Yangguan city wall and flew out of the city.  The Parthian army outside the city did not understand what was going on. They only felt countless dark balls falling down, causing chaos to the Parthian army.  However, these skin bags only contained anointing oil, but they did not cause any harm to the Parthian troops outside the city. It was just that the angle of these skin bags happened to hit the formation of the Parthian armored cavalry.

    The water bladders were smashed like watermelons one after another. They were all broken and the ointment was splashed everywhere. A large number of cavalry armors were splashed with ointment.

    Eurobazo and the surrounding Parthian nobles subconsciously took a step back, and then a pungent smell unique to the anointing oil filled the air.  The Parthians had long known about the existence of oil and that it was a flammable liquid.

    "Are they trying to prevent our armored cavalry from approaching?" Ourobazo frowned slightly and whispered to himself.

    But then he looked up at the sky in confusion. Europazo couldn't figure out what could throw the anointing oil in the skin so far?

    It seems that this is just a small interlude, the siege echelon in front of the armored cavalry is still slowly approaching the Yangguan city wall.  The armored cavalry also began to wipe the ointment on their armor with the assistance of their servants. Almost all the Parthians showed disdain for the Hexi Army's actions.

    When the Parthian people were disdainful of it, the domestic car in Yangguan City once again repeated the previous action.  As the command flag changed, the carriage began to twist again, but this time the spoon was no longer filled with an anointing skin, but a stone the size of a quick millstone.

    This time, the red flag has an additional straight-raising movement, and corresponding to this movement, the anointing oil on the stone is ignited.  Under the commanding flag, the chariots threw the lit stones high into the sky. This time, even all the Mohist disciples looked to the sky expectantly.

    Pieces of burning stones passed over the Yangguan Tower, and the entire sky seemed to be ignited. In addition to the roaring sound in the sky, there were also dots of fire falling from high altitude.

    There were huge fireballs flying across the sky, as if they were falling from the sky.  This time, all the Parthians saw an unbelievable scene. Countless fireballs poured in, as if the sky was broken and the entire world was about to be destroyed.  The fireball passed over the city tower and began to fall. The generals and soldiers of the Hexi Army on the Yangguan City Tower were also stunned by the unimaginable scene in front of them. They could only open their mouths in confusion, and their minds went blank.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?.

    Both the Hexi Army officers and the Parthian Army thought this was a miracle, but in the eyes of the Parthian Army, this was a miracle that represented destruction

    "RetreatRetreat quicklyThe Lord of the Han Dynasty is a witchThis is her witchcraft" Eurobazo showed a frightened look for the first time,  He couldn't understand everything in front of him and could only interpret it as a meteor summoned by Huo Tang using witchcraft.

    The Parthians only saw the fireball falling with a long flame. In their eyes, they were just meteors.And when the meteors fell densely, they happened to fall within the range of the armored cavalry.  Pieces of burning stones directly knocked each of the armored cavalry to the ground. Even the armored horses fell to the ground without even neighing. Those Parthian armored knights who happened to be hit by the flint, their armor  Unable to defend against such a huge impact, the originally strong armor was completely deformed by the smash, and the person was directly smashed into a puddle of flesh. Blood, water, brains, and internal organs were squeezed out of the armor, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere  .

    In fact, only a few people were hit by flints, but the anointing oil that had not yet been removed was ignited by the sparks splashed by the falling flints. For a moment, the armored cavalry camp was in chaos, and the war horses began to run around uncontrollably.  .

    "Launch the crossbow" Orders rang out from the Yangguan Tower, and then huge crossbow arrows were launched one after another by the locomotive.  The crossbow arrows trailed long ropes, densely packed and overwhelming.

    "Dongdongdongdong" All the huge crossbow arrows hit the giant shields of the Parthian infantry. Then, before the Parthian army could react, the Yangguan Tower  The winch on the serial crossbow motorcycle above began to rotate, and the rope crossbow arrows were retrieved one by one.

    The Parthian soldiers holding giant shields tried their best but could not stop the power of this machine. The giant shields were dragged along with them, and then escaped the control of the Parthian infantry. The giant shields fell down one after another and were separated from the Parthian camp.

    "Mr. Wu An, give the order to attack." Huo Tang was also deeply shocked on the top of the gate. However, after the giant shield was removed, she still reacted. Now is the best time to attack.

    "No" Bai Zheng responded in a daze.  He had never thought that war could be fought like this. In this era where everything relied on human hands, equipment would not be of much use. However, the equipment used by the Mo family today completely overturned his understanding.

    These are completely beyond the scope of human power, like the power of God!

    Yangguan City Gate was opened for the first time in several months, and Hexi cavalry poured out like a tide in an instant.  On the opposite side, the Parthian camp was already in chaos. The armored cavalry in the rear were blocked by the fire and had no time to take care of themselves. The front line lost the protection of the giant shield and the infantry was completely exposed. The Parthian slaves who were pushing the siege equipment were even more frightened. They did not receive any orders.  Next, the siege team at the front had already begun to collapse.

    Eurobazo directly gave up the siege team in front, and fled in panic with the armored cavalry and other troops.  Facing the unknown fear like the coming of God's power, the wisest man in Anxi could not maintain his composure.  The ensuing battle was a one-sided massacre by the Hexi Army. Less than half an hour later, a large number of corpses of Parthian infantry and servants were left outside Yangguan, as well as more than ten Parthian aircraft, which consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.  Siege machinery.

    Huo Tang did not order the pursuit of the Parthian army. She knew that once they left the attack range of the Mohist organization, the Hexi Army would still be unable to defeat the Parthian armored cavalry.  Although Europa Zuo fled in panic, his main force did not suffer much loss at all, and the nearly 20,000 armored cavalry suffered less than a hundred casualties.

    After witnessing the terror of the Mohist organization, which was as terrifying as the power of heaven, Eurobazo did not go to the next level for a long time, and the Mohist family also won peace for Hexi for a long time.

    A few days later, the news that the Mohist organization defeated the Parthian army at Yangguan finally reached Chang'an, and the world was shocked for a while.  And this rare victory also restored a trace of vitality to the originally low morale of the Han Empire.

    Whether facing Shangguan Jie in the direction of the Xiongnu, or facing Liang Wang guarding Youqu, after learning that the Mohists were reborn, and that the Anxi armored cavalry was invincible with their mechanisms, they unconsciously felt more confident.  .  For a time, the entire Han Dynasty's war situation seemed to be undergoing subtle changes!
