257 Flame Blockade

These python longbowmen, who were not in armor, were immediately blown into pieces of rag dolls under the power of the shell explosion, and those who were unlucky enough to be close to the bullet point were directly blown into pieces, and those who were a little farther away would also be shocked by the shock wave generated by the explosion, and those who were a little farther away could not avoid the fragments of the shells produced by the explosion.

In the area under the first gun, a blank space immediately appeared in the position of the python longbowmen, and at least seven or eight python longbowmen were killed and wounded.

Xiao Feng quickly reloaded, and then continued to ensure fire suppression to the position of the python longbowmen, the maximum rate of fire of this recoilless gun is 5-6 rounds per minute, but that is when an artillery squad of six people is equipped, someone aims and fires, and someone specially transports shells and loads shells.

And Xiao Feng here is only his brother, so there is no way to achieve that speed, but even so, he alone can ensure a shooting rate of about 3 rounds per minute.

After three minutes of continuous bombardment, about ten shells hit the past, basically ploughing the position where the python longbowmen were located, and this round of shelling passed, and there were basically no python longbowmen who could still stand on that position.

In fact, Xiao Feng roughly observed it, and killed fifty or sixty python longbowmen, as soon as the others found out that the situation was wrong, they immediately jumped into the trench and hid, so that more than half of the python longbowmen escaped this shelling.

Although Xiao Feng was not very satisfied with the killing effect, the purpose of fire suppression had been achieved, without the longbowmen throwing giant arrows from a distance, the psychological pressure of the human soldiers on the city wall was immediately greatly reduced, and the density of firepower invested under the city wall instantly became violent.

Xiao Feng turned the muzzle of the cannon again, and destroyed the dozen or so half-orc catapults that were on par with the position of the python longbowmen one by one, and the human soldiers on the wall immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The enemy has no long-range strike power, no threat above his head, and these orcs under the city wall are not so terrifying.

After all, the ten-meter-high city wall is not a joke, and even if these half-orcs are agile, it is not so easy to climb up quickly.

At this time, most of the orcs had already rushed to the city wall, and those heavy infantry held huge shields and set up human ladders, and at this time there was still a steady stream of kobolds and werewolf soldiers rushing out of the trenches with ladders, and they rushed to the city wall to assemble the ladders one by one, and soon they actually built the ladder to a place about two meters away from the wall.

However, to be able to reach such a height is also the height limit of the ladders brought by these orcs, in front of the heavy infantry holding a huge shield to open the way, and in the back is a nimble werewolf, following up with the kobolds, quickly climbing up to the top of the city wall, while the human soldiers, holding spears and slapsticks several meters long, constantly attacking those half-orcs who climb the ladder.

There are also archers who keep firing arrows at these orc soldiers, and there are also centaur archers under the city wall, constantly aiming at the wall to shoot arrows, and the battlefield is full of fighting, this time it is particularly tragic.

The orcs are fighting to the death, and their fearless nature is vividly embodied, although people keep falling from the ladder, but immediately someone will fill in the position, completely ignoring life and death.

And the casualties of the human soldiers also began to skyrocket, and people were constantly hit and fell to the ground by the hand axes invested by the half-orcs on the ladder, or were shot by the centaurs under the city walls and fell to the bottom of the city walls, and the war finally reached the most brutal white-hot stage!

There were only about 2,000 human soldiers on the city wall, and at this time, there were four or five thousand orc soldiers crowded under the city wall.

Although humans have the advantage of tall walls, the disadvantage in numbers, coupled with the physical advantage of the orcs, makes the balance of war gradually tilt in favor of the orcs.

Originally, Xiao Feng thought that the half-orcs put the ladder two meters away from the battlements of the city wall, because the ladder they brought was not long enough, but later he found out that it was he who thought wrongly, but these half-orcs had their own set of attack patterns.

If the ladder is placed on the battlement of the city wall, then it is very likely that humans will use tools to overturn the ladder, but if it is placed two meters away from the battlement, humans will not be able to reach it.

And the height of these two meters may be an insurmountable curse for people, but for kobolds and werewolves who are good at jumping, it is not a problem at all.

A heavy infantry in front climbs a ladder with a shield, and when he climbs to the top, this guy becomes a human ladder and a meat shield, and the kobolds and werewolves behind will step on this meat shield and jump on the wall, two meters high, these guys can often jump up and jump directly onto the city wall.

And these can only be regarded as the lowest-level light armored infantry in the half-orc alliance, but they are not easy for human soldiers to deal with, because of the advantage of physical fitness, these kobolds and werewolves are very flexible and vigorous, very good at flashing and moving, in the case of holding a shield in one hand and a knife in the other, often two or three human soldiers are not close to each other, and they have to rely on spearmen to stab these kobolds and werewolves to death, or drive them off the city wall.

In just ten minutes, the city wall has been turned into a slaughterhouse, and even Kyle and Bloom, who have been following Xiao Feng's side, have already drawn out their long knives and joined the battlefield.

Xiao Feng knew that he couldn't wait any longer, he took out the RPG, and he didn't aim, it was all based on feeling, and he raised his hand to interrupt the nearest ladder, just relying on this ladder, there were already five or six kobolds and werewolves over the wall, and even the heavy armored infantry of the minotaur had already climbed up, but at the moment when he finally kicked the ladder and jumped up, Xiao Feng interrupted the ladder, and the minotaur heavy armored infantry stepped on the air, and then fell directly from the ten-meter-high wall to the ground.

This guy was lucky enough, and it just so happened that there were four or five kobold soldiers who were ready to climb the ladder to keep up with him where he fell, but those kobold soldiers became unlucky and were directly crushed to death by him, but this minotaur, relying on a body of heavy armor, plus thick skin and thick flesh, just fell and fainted...

Xiao Feng was not in a hurry to deal with those half-orcs who had already rushed to the wall, after all, there were only a few who rushed up, and he had to deal with the dozen or so ladders that could allow the half-orcs to climb the wall continuously.

As long as these ladders are interrupted, these orcs who climb the wall are a source of water, much easier to deal with.

The battlefield was chaotic, and Xiao Feng simply came to a shooting tower that poked out of the city wall, and there were more than a dozen human archers in this tower, constantly firing arrows from the back of the half-orcs climbing the wall.

When these archers saw Xiao Feng coming in, they all took the initiative to give Xiao Feng the best shooting position, and Xiao Feng took the RPG and began to name those ladders.

Rockets that can be pierced by more than ten centimeters of armor are used to deal with these wooden ladders, obviously using a knife to kill chickens, but the effect is obviously very good.

At the same time, Charlesman on the city wall also thought of a way to deal with these ladders, he commanded a dozen soldiers, holding clay pots full of fire oil, came to the city wall, and smashed those clay pots down on those ladders, the clay pots touched the heavy infantry at the front of the ladder, and immediately smashed to pieces, but the fire oil in the jar was scattered and splashed on the ladder The orcs on the ladder were all over the face, and then a torch was thrown over, and immediately the whole ladder became a fire ladder.

The guy who rushed to the front was immediately burned by the ghost crying wolf, like dumplings, and fell down the ladder one after another. . .

With Charlesman taking the lead, the other defending soldiers on the city wall also seemed to have opened their minds, and began to look for clay pots and threw them under the city walls, even if they didn't hit the ladder, but the clay pots fell under the city walls, and the orcs who were crowded under the city walls would be splashed with oil, and torches were thrown down from the city head one by one, and there was immediately a sea of fire under the city walls. . .

At this stage of the war, both sides have already killed red eyes, and the original orcs have begun to gradually gain the upper hand by relying on the advantage of numbers and physical fitness, but Xiao Feng's joining, and the flash of human inspiration, almost instantly reversed the form on the battlefield.

The continuous firelight under the city wall cried wolf to the half-orcs who were crowded under the city wall waiting to climb the ladder to rush to the city, and within ten meters in front of the city wall, there was a sea of fire, plus the human beings were still investing in fire oil tanks under the city wall, so that within ten meters in front of the city wall, there was no foothold for the half-orcs at all.

Even if the orcs were still reluctant and wanted to continue the charge, the fire also cut off their charging route, and became an impassable blockade in front of the city walls.

At this time, the hundred or so half-orcs who had rushed to the wall were surrounded by human soldiers, and the sharp energy when they had just rushed to the wall was completely gone.

The ladder was either broken or ignited, and it was impossible for any more reinforcements to come up behind them, and there was a sea of fire under the city walls, which basically cut off their retreat, which made these kobolds and werewolves very desperate.

Under the pressure of the human spearmen, they were gradually forced to shrink into a small circle and surround the city wall, while the human spearmen held three-meter-long spears, constantly squeezing their space.

The weapons in the hands of the kobolds and ronins are only a few long knives, and there are no weapons that can fight the spearmen, and the distance of three meters makes it difficult for them to kill and injure the human spearmen.

However, the nature of the beasts has made these half-orcs begin to go crazy, anyway, they are all dead, so it is better to fight at the end, and they can kill one by one.
