Chapter 68 Horseshoes and Catapults (1)(2/2)
Immediately, a sturdy young craftsman came forward with a sledgehammer, shouted loudly, and with taut muscles in his arms, hit the scraper that fixed the hopper with the hammer.
"boom!"
With a loud sound, the scraper was released, and the heavy hopper, which weighed more than three thousand kilograms, suddenly fell, transmitting terrifying potential energy to the stone scoop at the other end of the lever arm.
"call!"

Everyone's eyes quickly followed and they saw the stone bullets flying over an astonishing distance of at least 380 steps before hitting the ground heavily.
"Boom!"
Where there was a loud noise, dust flew up and the sound was like a thunderbolt. The stone bullets that landed on the ground did not lose their momentum and bounced up again in an instant, continuing to rush forward.
not good!
Yuwen Shiji and Xia Yu's expressions changed greatly, and they watched helplessly as the stone bullets hit the village fence not far away like ferocious rolling dragons.
"Wow!"
In an instant, a large section of the stockade was easily knocked down, and wood chips flew into the air.
What was even more unfortunate was that a nearby tall archery tower for sentries was also affected, and collapsed suddenly as the soldiers on the archery tower screamed in panic.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
For a moment, the alarm bell rang. The soldiers guarding the gate of the village did not know what was going on. They thought they had been attacked by an enemy and immediately raised the alarm.
Seeing that the entire rear camp was alarmed, Xia Yu and Yu Wenshi looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.
Okay, it’s time to poke the basket!
