History[]
| “ | The Chinese military heavily relied on siege weaponry and ranged soldiers due to the prevalence of fortified towns and cities across China. Weapons like the siege crossbow, a bed-sized crossbow operated by multiple soldiers, traction trebuchets, and the Egu Che, a hook cart designed to damage walls, were employed to great effect by Chinese armies. | ” |
