305 Decapitation of the Orcs

I opened a new book "Starting from a Superstar", everyone can help collect it and recommend it!

Shantali looked at it for a while, then he gave a few words to an orangutan herald behind him, and then the herald ran like a mountain back.

Behind this hill, the orcs actually cleared out a platform, and now this platform is standing densely packed with hundreds of large trebuchets.

The orcs did not have Xiao Feng's telescope, and when the smoke obscured the battlefield, it was indeed not bad for them to think of such an aerial reconnaissance method.

The most important thing is that this Shantali was very cautious about this war after learning about the defeat of the last siege from Tadel's mouth.

Especially after learning that there is a powerful human mage in this tribe, who can summon thunder and lightning attacks, and can also attract heavenly punishment attacks.

At first, Thantari didn't believe Tadr's words, believing them to be excuses for his defeat, but later he recruited a few orc soldiers who had fought in the siege.

After many verifications, he was convinced that Tarder was not lying, and even after some understanding, he finally affirmed that this human mage was the main reason why their orcs failed to conquer this human tribe several times.

Therefore, the tone he set at the beginning of this war was to capture the thief and capture the king first, and kill the human mage first, and then the rest of the human beings would be local chickens and dogs.

But how do you kill this human mage? After thinking about it, the only way to lure the snake out of the hole is this trick!

That's why he arranged this morning's scene, first let people light damp branches, cause smoke on the battlefield, cover the battlefield, send people to fill the river, let the orcs make noise, and cause panic among humans.

At the same time, let the golden eagle reconnoiter and locate in the air, and once he finds the human mage attacking, it is time for him to arrange for the catapult behind the mountain to appear.

The main reason for the failure of the idiot of Tadr last time, he also summed it up, not only because of the human mage, but also partly because of the fact that Tardell used the catapult incorrectly.

Since arriving at the battlefield yesterday, he has been observing the battlefield, and it can be said that the humans on the other side are very good at choosing places, and the walls they have built just hold the narrowest part of the Pannivela Peninsula to the south.

On both sides are lofty mountains, only the high platform flat land extended from the remaining veins of the foothills of more than 100 meters, and on the left hand side is a big river, and they built a city wall on that high platform flat land, and held the throat of the entire isthmus.

And the battlefield in front of the city wall is also very narrow, even if the orc army attacks, it is impossible to deploy all the forces on such a small battlefield, so even if they have a numerical advantage, they will not be able to exert themselves.

Therefore, killing the human mages and destroying their walls has become the key to winning this battle!

But the human mage has a very strong long-range attack method, so it is very undesirable to confront him, so how to destroy the city wall and complete the purpose of decapitation?

After observing the terrain of the battlefield yesterday, Shantali focused on the remaining veins that extended from the foothills of the hills, five hundred meters north of the wall.

He had someone clear a flat area on the north side of this hill overnight yesterday, and then set up all the catapults here, a distance of five hundred meters, which was nothing for a giant catapult of orcs.

In this way, the long-range projection troops of the orcs can avoid the blind spot of human shooting, and they can project the human wall through the method of aerial golden eagle correction.

And this time, their preferred target is the fire point at the city wall, where the fire snake is constantly spraying into the smoke, according to the report of the golden eagle and Tadr, it should be the firing position of the human mage...

One by one, the giant stone projectiles were put into the net pocket of the catapult, and then the experienced catapult operator constantly adjusted the projection angle of the catapult through the coordinates sent by the herald, as well as the height and weight of the counterweight hammer, and adjusted the projection strength.

Finally, with a wave of his hand, the launcher picked up the sledgehammer and dropped the tenon of the counterweight, and the counterweight fell vertically to the ground, and the swing arm behind it was pulled violently, and it was raised instantly, and the net pocket behind the swing arm flew into the air and was instantly untied, and the huge round stone projectile, along the projectile trajectory, rose into the air with a sound of breaking the air, and flew towards the human city wall. . .

Xiao Feng had encountered a danger on the city wall last time, so when Charlesman and Kyle were reinforcing the city wall, they deliberately re-made a launch position for him, and there were several of them at once.

This time, several machine gun positions were arranged very strongly, they specially mined granite from the mountain, polished and built, and several thick steel plates made by dwarves were arranged on the top of their heads, so that when the mage was practicing inside, when operating the magic weapon, the threat on the battlefield was much smaller.

Originally, they thought that such an arrangement was foolproof, but when the giant stone projectile invested by the orcs roared over their heads, it still scared them all out of a cold sweat.

Not only Kyle and Charlesman were taken aback, but even Xiao Feng was taken aback, this time because the stone bullets thrown by the other party were very close, and his crisis warning, he didn't even have time to call the police, and the stone bullets thrown by the half-beast had already flown over his head.

Although the orcs have been carefully prepared, this catapult is still a little rough after all, and they don't know much about mechanics and geometry, so even if they are carefully prepared, the accuracy of the projection is not as accurate as that of the thermal weapon, and it can only rely on the experience of those catapult operators.

Coupled with the thick smoke on the battlefield, those orc projection operators, even if they are experienced in a hundred battles, it is impossible to be like snipers.

The first batch of stone projectiles was almost all thrown at the back of the city wall, and there was no threat to the people on the city wall.

However, Xiao Feng was dragged out of the launch position by Kyle and the others, and hid in the sturdier towers on the city walls.

"The catapults of the orcs have formed a straddle, and they must be found as soon as possible, or the walls will be finished. ”

Without these people to say, Xiao Feng knew what was going on, these half-orcs really came prepared, last time they stupidly pushed the catapult to the frontal battlefield to resist them, but they were bombed by Xiao Feng with cannonballs.

But this time the orcs learned well, they first covered the battlefield with thick smoke, and then pushed the catapults up to attack, so that these catapults became their biggest threat.

You must know that the projection ability of the catapult of the orc is much greater than that of the human catapult, even if he has a steel wall under his feet, he will not be able to withstand a few hits of the stone projectile weighing hundreds of kilograms invested by the orc.

If the giant stone projectile were to hit the people defending the city wall, the casualties would be even more terrifying, so the first thing they had to do now was to destroy all the orc catapults and destroy their long-range strike capabilities.

But where are the orc catapults? The battlefield is so thick with smoke that they can't see it at all?

The catapults on the city wall still followed the ruler, and then in the direction of the first moat in the distance, they threw fire bombs, and there was already a sea of fire.

But apart from the first screams, there was no sound for the rest of the battle, and the battlefield fell into an eerie silence.

"Charlesman, stop the catapult from firing. ”

Xiao Feng also realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly beckoned Charlesman to stop attacking, and the catapult on the city wall quickly stopped.

There was no sound on the battlefield except the crackling of the flames.

At this time, suddenly there was a violent friction sound in the smoke in front of the city wall, as well as the sound of footsteps, Xiao Feng immediately waved his hand: "Release the arrow, and the catapult will be projected according to the second ruler." ”

Although there was no roar of charging on the battlefield, just those heavy panting, Xiao Feng knew that this time the orc was real, and the perspective of God in his mind had been opened, and he could feel that the half-orc had crossed the first moat.

He didn't care about the threat of the orc catapult, so he came to the city wall, pulled out his machine gun, and began to shoot.

After the previous half-orc catapult sneak attack, there was no movement, and he knew that the other party must also be thinking about killing himself first, because after he stopped firing, those catapults were no longer firing.

And this time, when he came to the city wall again, he also had an extra heart, he did not stay in a machine-gun firing position as before, and kept strafing with heavy machine guns.

This time he switched to a light machine gun and rotated back and forth between several firing positions on the city walls.

Although the heavy machine gun has strong firepower and good persistence, it has a disadvantage, that is, it is not easy to move back and forth, but now he does not have such a problem with a light machine gun.

The second moat was only five or six hundred meters away from the city wall, and such a distance was not a problem at all for the Deggarev light machine gun.

Another advantage of using this cartridge light machine gun is that you don't have to worry about the chain being difficult to control when moving positions back and forth like RPK light machine guns.

The walls once again erupted with ferocious fire, knocking down the 'cannon fodder' that had rushed through the first moat, because there were no tunnels here, so the orc assault force followed behind the 'cannon fodder' who was responsible for filling the river in front.

Once the 'cannon fodder' in front is knocked down, or shot down, these orcs pick up the corpse of the 'cannon fodder', use it as a meat shield, and continue to charge forward.

The battle finally began to rage, and the first wave of the orcs rushed to the second moat, throwing the 'cannon fodder' in their hands and even the corpses of their companions directly into the river.

Fortunately, this moat has been dug deep and widened, and if you want to fill it, it won't be completed in a while...
