663 Breaking the city
In the past, they were the ones who attacked human territory, and the humans hid behind the walls, while they drove the human slaves and charged in front as cannon fodder.
Filling in pits, filling in moats, these are the things that human slaves should do on the battlefield.
And now the situation is completely reversed, and now it is the humans who have come to attack their city, and they have captured the orcs as slaves and used them as cannon fodder in front.
This made the young and vigorous Zhijie feel unacceptable, but although he was angry, he was not stupid.
After being stopped by his father Ao Guang before, his brain has gradually regained its calm.
Being able to swagger through the human armies of dozens of orc tribes in the territory of the orcs, do you think they were given for nothing?
Or if you think they're just as defeated as the men of the Human Empire, you're very wrong.
It is certainly not for nothing that the tribes of so many powerful tribes in the Napal steppe can be defeated and the human army that is rushing to the ground.
At this time, he saw the momentum of the army on the city wall, and if he rushed down rashly, he would be sending people to their heads!
So what now?
Zhijie also participated in the alliance army a few years ago, and also went to the human empire in the south to conquer, and participated in many battles.
He has conquered countless human cities, and he is experienced in besieging cities, and he is also experienced in defending cities.
This time, he wanted to see how these human armies captured their understory city!
The walls of the castle had been raised to fifteen meters by human slaves, and he didn't believe that these human armies could climb it.
And he has seen the battles of these human armies defending the city, but he really hasn't seen the siege, he wants to see how capable these humans are, and whether they can capture his castle under the forest.
What's more, after calming down, he also carefully looked at the phalanx of this human army, there were more than twenty of them, and there were more than 30,000 people, plus the baggage team behind, 50,000 people died.
And in his forest city, there are 10,000 elites of their ape clan alone, and 100,000 people from other tribes, but among them, the elite dare to fight. That's 20,000.
In this way, it is 30,000 elites, against 30,000 elites, but this time they are defending the city, and the humans are attacking the city.
Looking at the human side, more than 10,000 of the 30,000 people were cavalry, and there were only 20,000 infantry, and he didn't see any siege equipment, so he really didn't believe that these humans could take their city.
At that moment, a knight sprang out of the human phalanx, and this knight quickly rushed under the city walls, within range of the orc's bow and arrow.
Originally, Zhijie wanted to shoot him to death with an arrow, but was stopped by his father Ao Guang.
Soon the man came to the city wall, and then shouted loudly in the common language: "Listen to the orcs in the city wall, the Death Reaper of Riverrun City leads a large army to conquer the group, if you don't want to die, quickly open the city and surrender." If you dare to resist, after the army breaks through the city, you will not seal the sword for three days, give you a stick of incense to consider time, and give an answerγγγγγ β
The knight rode back and forth under the city, making sure that his shouts would be heard by every orc soldier on the walls.
Soon Zhijie heard a low commotion from the defenders on the wall, what is there to be afraid of, these fools, what is there to be afraid of in that Riverflowing City Grim Reaper.
How can a few words make you confused with the morale of the army.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhijie was angry, shook off the guards around him, took out a bow and arrow from his side, and bent the bow and arrow at the knight is an arrow.
Fortunately, the knight had been vigilantly staring at the movement on the city wall, and naturally discovered the arrow shot by Zhijie early.
Immediately leaned over and turned around and began to flee backwards.
And the half-orcs on the city wall, since they saw that Youzhijie took the lead, how could the others hold back, and they began to bend their bows and arrows and shoot the messenger.
Soon the knight was shot on the road, and these actions of the orcs completely angered the human army on the opposite side, and the noise from the human phalanx could be heard from a distance.
At this moment, a clattering sound sounded overhead, Ao Guang and Zhijie looked up into the distance, only to see a huge black shadow, from far and near, rapidly approaching the city wall from the air.
Ao Guang suddenly remembered that he had heard those half-orcs who had fled back before, that Rushing City Grim Reaper, with vast magical powers and omnipotence.
He is especially good at manipulating and manipulating the tricks, including a powerful flying fortress that can fly in the air.
It was a very strange long iron box, which could fly lightly in the air, and it was larger than a golden eagle, faster than a golden eagle, and made a strange roar when it flew.
What's even more terrifying is that this iron box will thunder and shoot lightning in the air, but none of the orcs who are hit by him can leave a whole corpse.
When Ao Guang heard someone talk about such a thing before, it was only when that person was beaten insane by the Death Reaper of Rushing City and became a madman.
But now, when he saw the black iron box coming across the sky, making a strange roar, he believed it, and even his legs went limp.
Not only him, but many orcs on the city wall, looking at the strange iron box, even thought that they had seen a miracle, and some guys had actually begun to kneel down on the city wall, kowtow to this iron box, and pray.
And at this moment, the iron pipes similar to wings on both sides of the iron box began to spew out chains of fire that flashed red.
Wherever the chain of fire went, there was a loud bang, and then a deep pit with a diameter of more than two meters appeared on the city wall, and all the orcs within a radius of five meters next to this pit appeared.
It doesn't matter if you are an ape with an ape arm and a bee waist, or a pig-headed man with a waist the thickness of a water tank, or a minotaur with a thick upper and lower side, as long as you are on it, you will all be blown up and your bones will be broken.
Fortunately, those who lost their arms or broke one leg, and those who were unlucky were directly blown to pieces, or were blown into two pieces by the waist, and even some of their heads were blown to pieces all over the place.
Immediately there was a howl of ghosts and wolves on the city wall, and some orcs thought that this was a heavenly punishment sent by God, and at this time they still knelt on the ground reverently, kowtowing to the black iron box above their heads and asking for forgiveness.
Others were frightened by the first wave of attacks, screaming and scurrying around the city walls, trying to find a safe place to hide.
Fortunately, they soon found an arrow tower in the middle of the city wall, this cylindrical arrow tower stood on top of the fish city wall, which was usually not only a bunker for archers to shoot, but also a hiding hole.
Specially designed to avoid the stone projectiles thrown by the enemy from under the city, it was originally built by Ao Guang and the strip of stone that Ao Guang had people collect from the mountains in the distance, and it was extremely strong.
But this arrow tower, which was usually extremely strong in the eyes of the orcs, did not play the role they imagined in front of the furious firepower output of the black iron box.
The iron box drew an arc in the air, and flew slowly in front of the arrow tower, and the half-orcs in the arrow tower watched this iron box fly, and under the domination of fear, they were even more crazy about the iron box.
It's a pity that the bows and crossbows they shot out bounced off one after another after hitting the iron box, and they didn't even scratch a single piece of patent leather.
As if it had been tickled a few times, the iron box lazily adjusted the muzzle of the cannon, and then a series of fires erupted from the rocket nests under the wings on either side of him.
There are a few rockets that are very accurate to follow, and the window of the arrow tower goes directly into the arrow tower. . .
Zhijie and Ao Guang, who were hiding in the distance, looked at the three-story arrow tower that had been piled up with stone bars, and suddenly swelled up from the inside, like a balloon that had been propped up, but it quickly burst.
After the loud explosion, a puff of smoke rose from the city walls, and the smoke of gunpowder, dirt and dust, and the smell of blood mixed together, creating a very unpleasant smell in the air.
When the smoke cleared, everyone could only see the originally solid arrow tower, leaving only a broken wall and ruins, and stumps and broken arms all over the ground.
The orcs on the city wall couldn't hold on any longer, and they all ran towards the stairs with a strange scream, and the only thought in everyone's minds at this time was to run farther, as far away from the monster box as possible.
Xiao Feng drove this black shark and repeatedly swept across the city wall, and finally drove all the orcs off the city wall before he ran out of ammunition.
At the same time, the phalanx of the human army in the distance also got a signal, and the orcs in front, driven by the human soldiers, carried bags full of dirt and rushed towards the city wall.
Naturally, along the way, he also helped the human soldiers wade through countless traps, and finally rushed to the city wall, and the first thing was naturally to fill the moat, and by the way, move the horses blocking the road.
With these hard-working cannon fodder, the charge of the human army can finally be accelerated.
The orcs on the city wall were dispersed, and Xiao Feng let the wild bee guards take control of the wall.
And he landed the plane on the city wall, but the people got down the city wall, came to the gate, and took out the recoilless cannon, and the city gate was bombarded.
After five shells were fired directly, the huge city gate was finally pierced by him, and even the masonry blocking the gate behind the gate was blown to pieces.
Ao Guang and Zhijie, who were guarding the city gate and did not go far, saw that the city gate was continuously struck by thunder, and then blown apart, and finally believed it.
It turns out that the previous orcs really didn't lie, this Rushing City Grim Reaper really has the ability to manipulate thunder and lightning!
"Let's go! Zhijie, take the clansmen and retreat, this city doesn't need to be defended. β
Looking at the half-orc cannon fodder swarming in at the city gate, and began to move the obstacles blocking the city gate, Ao Guang said to Zhijie beside him.
Zhijie is also face-to-face, but he also knows that what his father said is right, this city can't be defended.
Suddenly, they heard screams behind them, and when they looked back, there were bursts of wolf smoke rising from the city, and there were fires everywhere.
"Bastard, we took them in, they didn't count the breakdown, they even burned and killed in the city!"
