75. Start the siege
Seeing that the 100,000 Imperial Alliance troops slowly raised their heads again, Mo Fei didn't give them time to think about anything more, and said, "Now your supreme commander is me, the Emperor of the Death Empire. In the future, you will fight for your empire and your family under the banner of the Empire of Death. Now, take your weapons, stand on the city walls, and show the guys on Alcatraz Island, the guys in your hands are also the ones who can kill them, and let them know that this continent is not a place where they can come and go when they want. ”
Mo Fei gave an order, and those dwarven warriors quickly walked over, and one of them led a team and walked to the head of the city. From then on, these imperial coalition forces really became a force under Mo Fei's control, and with the garrison troops they joined, the strength was suddenly much greater.
Alcatraz's troops were visibly taken aback by the slaughter of their own vanguard. They did not dare to blindly attack the city, but chose to set up a military camp not far from the city, and then sent people to pull the corpses of these vanguard soldiers to the back mountain and bury them on the spot.
"They also brought siege engines this time. Mo Fei was watching from afar in the castle tower as he was busy assembling something in the Alcatraz barracks, when he heard the voice of the Flying Dragon Empire Monarch behind him.
"Are they working on siege vehicles?" Murphy hadn't seen what siege engines looked like.
"Yes, is there anything you can do about it......?
"Those siege engines are also made of wood, right?" Mo Fei didn't say what he could do.
"Of course. The monarch of the Wyvern Empire smiled, as if he knew that Mo Fei had a way, "They can't make siege vehicles with other materials." ”
"That's good, just set it on fire. "Mo Fei brought nearly 10,000 enchanted arrows this time, and many of them were rockets. It's a big deal to carve out some flaming arrows right away, I'm afraid of him.
The two monarchs looked at the Alcatraz camp on the opposite side from the city walls. Slowly, the Alcatraz camp erected more than a dozen things that looked like castle towers. Mo Fei knew that there must be wheels underneath, and when he pushed it towards the city wall, people rushed up.
"It seems that my imperial uncle is also in their barracks!"
"Of course, otherwise their siege engines would be as tall as your walls. Judging by the way they look, it won't take a while to make these cars. ”
"What do they seem to be brushing into the car?"
"They probably knew we'd start a fire, probably with something fireproof, right?"
The people of Alcatraz didn't know that the troops they had sent to the Doma Empire to log in had been wiped out, and they certainly didn't know about Murphy's enchanted arrows.
It's been more than ten days, and it probably won't take a few days. Kane's army should be here. In the end, the information sent by Kane could not be delivered to Mo Fei, who had already set off at that time, and later changed his plan, and the scouts who sent the information didn't know what to do. When I returned, I received an assembly order from Kane, so I had to put it down, and it was a letter of retribution anyway.
I don't know if my flaming arrows will be able to burn these siege engines, and if they can't, then it's a big problem.
"It seems that today they will not do it. We can sleep soundly again. The old monarch smiled, as if the enemies outside the city who were preparing to attack his empire were about to attack not his own capital.
"They've been running around for a while, how can they have fun without resting? It's nothing to do tonight, tomorrow morning, they'll come." ”
Mo Fei was afraid that Alcatraz would divide its troops to attack other places, but he was not afraid that these Alcatraz people would attack the City of Death or enter the Forest of Death. Not everyone can go there, and Alcatraz is no exception.
Alcatraz has been preparing for a day and has finally begun to siege. Alcatraz has placed all the heavy troops in front of it, and has only placed some symbolic power in other directions. Mo Fei knew that Alcatraz was the capital of the Wyvern Empire, and they were also not sure that they would destroy all the resistance in the city.
Seeing the siege arrangement of Alcatraz Island, Mo Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Resisting the siege of Alcatraz in multiple directions will be as difficult as it will be. Looking at the formation laid out on Alcatraz Island outside the city, I don't know if it was because the troops were increased later, or if those warships could accommodate more people. Now it seems that Alcatraz Island is no less than 400,000 people! plus the defensive troops they left behind in the towns they occupied, Mo Fei doesn't know how this number came about.
Could it be that before landing, Alcatraz secretly transported people to a certain place in the Wyvern Empire and hid them?
It's too late to think about anything now, no matter if they are 400,000 or how many thousand, this battle will not be able to escape. At the beginning, it was estimated that the number of people was only ten to one. Now it seems that twenty to one is possible.
Fortunately, they occupy most of the fortified cities, and relying on the cities should be able to consume the living forces of Alcatraz Island. Occupying a city and leaving a part of the army to defend it also made Alcatraz's forces too scattered, and it was also convenient to gather superior forces in the event of a counteroffensive in the future.
"City Lord, those guys are about to start attacking the city!" "While Mo Fei was thinking, a dwarf soldier reminded Mo Fei that the other party had begun.
The dozen or so siege engines were slowly moving towards the city walls, and the Alcatraz soldiers who were pushing the siege engines were hiding behind the vehicles, and it was impossible to carry out a precise attack on them.
"Wait for the siege vehicles to come within range of the ballista and use the flaming arrows!" Mo Fei ordered.
Finally, the siege engines were slow, but they were approaching. At the sound of an order, the huge arrows aimed at the siege vehicle roared through the air. After the arrow hit the siege vehicle, it immediately burst into flames, and the people on the city saw the Alcatraz soldiers rolling out of the car from time to time with fire on the other side, and then burned motionlessly. All cheered for a while.
But soon, they couldn't laugh anymore. After the flames dissipated, none of the siege vehicles were damaged, but their whole body turned black.
Mo Fei saw that the flame arrows could not burn the opponent's siege vehicle, and hurriedly ordered: "All ballista, target the soldiers behind the opponent's siege vehicle." Free fire!"
For a moment, the ballista changed its target and fired wildly at the Alcatraz soldiers who were following the siege engine. Those group attack magic arrows that have been improved by Mo Fei can knock down a large number of people with a single arrow, but they can only injure the opposing soldiers, but cannot achieve the goal of eliminating them.
However, the wounded Alcatraz soldiers kept falling under the Berserker's giant crossbow, which also relieved Mo Fei a little. Suddenly, a dwarven warrior shouted, "Watch out, their mage is approaching." ”
Only then did Mo Fei know that the strangely shaped warriors behind the other party were actually magicians on Alcatraz Island. At this time, a group of Alcatraz warriors in front of those magicians suddenly erected huge wooden shields to protect the magicians.
Seeing those magicians holding their wands aloof, and their mouths began to read colloquial words, Mo Fei hurriedly said, "Ballista to destroy their magicians!"
Suddenly, the giant arrows of the hundreds of ballistae that could be assembled in front of them were all aimed at the magicians of Alcatraz Island. But the arrows blocked the huge shields and didn't do any damage to the magicians of Alcatraz.
"Switch to group attack arrows, quick!" At this time, the dwarf general Hilai blurted out, but at this time, the first wave of the opponent's magic attack "boomed" and hit the city wall. Looking at the defenders who fell in pieces after the opponent's magic attack, and several ballistas were also hit and scattered, Mo Fei was a little anxious.
"Use the group attack enchanted arrow, target the opponent's group of magicians, shoot!"
All of a sudden, many black clouds gathered over the Alcatraz magician team, and under the thunder and lightning, many magicians and the Alcatraz soldiers who protected them fell. But their defensive enchantments also worked. After a little confusion, he immediately retreated, this wave of group attack magic arrows failed to completely wipe out the Alcatraz magician team, but successfully forced the Alcatraz's long-range attack force to withdraw from the siege distance, which could play a role in pressing the formation and could not assist in the siege.
At this time, the more than ten siege vehicles had already leaned against the city wall, and the opponent's camp resounded with an earth-shattering shout of killing for a while. The soldiers of Alcatraz Island shouted wildly when they saw the siege engine approaching the top of the city, ignoring the rain of arrows on the city. At one time, more than ten points on the front, the soldiers of Alcatraz Island had rushed to the city wall and slashed with the soldiers defending the city.
The berserkers that Mo Fei had placed on the city lowered their giant crossbows, picked up their huge battle axes, and slashed desperately. These Alcatraz siege warriors can compete with the berserkers. Although he was slightly inferior, he was better than the ferocity, and even if he died, he would bring some small injuries to the berserkers who attacked him.
