Chapter 709: Outpost Battle

With Wu Zhendong's order, the soldiers defending the city, who had already been ready to attack, immediately fired the maximum firepower at the enemy soldiers who had already entered the firing range!

Bang, bang......

For a while, only different gunshots were heard in the sky, submachine guns, rifles, crackling, and invisible bullets rained down from the sky!

The first to bear the brunt was the cavalry closest to the Western Watchtower. The cavalry team that was originally charging violently www.biquge.info Pen, Fun, and Pavilion was already hit in an instant before they could draw their bows, and from the horseback to the bottom, blood splashed on the ground, staining the ground in front of the guard tower in an instant, which made people's intuition shocking. Some were hit by vital points and died, while others were hit by several bullets and groaned with serious injuries.

This scene happened suddenly, and most of the unprepared cavalry of the Moon Kingdom were stunned, because they didn't see the enemy firing cannonballs from the upper floor, nor did they see any bows and arrows fired, but they saw their comrades suddenly being knocked off their horses, and the cavalry team who didn't know what was going on didn't know how to react at all, not to mention, just a few seconds ago, their strong momentum of breaking through the watchtower had already disappeared.

Even if some of the more alert cavalrymen quickly raised their heads and wanted to bend their bows and shoot arrows at the enemy defenders on the tower, they were killed and immediately became Wu Zhendong's second target.

Therefore, the first wave of attack ordered by Wu Zhendong immediately reversed the situation on the field, and there was a noticeable difference in the morale of the soldiers on both sides.

In the entire Moon Kingdom Stormtroopering Army, in the face of everything that happened suddenly, the most shocked person was naturally the little prince of the Moon Country.

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom watched his army with his own eyes, with no less than two or three hundred archers, and suddenly, like dominoes, rows and rows quickly fell under the walls of the West Lookout Tower, and his heart was quickly filled with indescribable complex emotions, surprise, surprise, anger, fear, doubt...... If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have been able to believe what was happening in front of him, and in fact, even if he saw this bloody scene with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe it!

How did he explain this?!How did the enemy destroy these Moon Country cavalry?!What were their weapons?? He didn't even see it!

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom has led his army this time, his own military strength is strong, and he has the support of the Roman Empire, a military power, and this seems to be a battle with clear victory and defeat, so how can he not be proud and complacent? The little prince of the Moon Kingdom believes that if they go to war today, there is no doubt that they will inevitably return triumphantly. A powerful army is coming straight to the enemy's watchtower, and they will level it in the shortest possible time!

Until, the indisputable facts in front of him slapped him in the mouth, and his full confidence was replaced in an instant. Even when he opened his mouth a few times, he couldn't utter half a word at all, let alone talk about it, and he could calmly send troops and transfer generals!

It wasn't until the middle of the morning that he couldn't help but spit out swear words: "Rubbish!" and then turned to the commander beside him, the commander in charge of the cavalry, kicked the commander off his horse with a ruthless kick! The latter staggered up from the ground, but he was panicked and at a loss, and he didn't dare to look directly at the angry little prince of the Moon Kingdom, so he only knew how to keep bending down and confessing one by one.

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom lost his temper, and knew that he couldn't do nothing at the moment, so with an angry voice, he shouted loudly to the officers next to him: "Who can take this guard tower?

However, a scene that made him even more angry happened - no one around him immediately responded, but they all hesitated, as if they wanted to take advantage of this military achievement, and as if they still decided not to force themselves to avoid dying on the spot, but there were also those who seemed to be afraid that inaction would cause the little prince of the Moon Kingdom to be angry and lose his head.

It was not that they, as dignified generals, wanted to escape from the battle and shirked the matter, but that they saw with their own eyes the fact that the archers were lined up in arrays, but no one could see clearly how the enemy attacked them! Such a situation was unprecedented for them. Until this moment, none of them understood what kind of weapons the enemy used, how should they deal with the enemy's attack, just ask, who can say that they are sure to take this hot potato?!

For a while, no one really said a word, everyone was peeking at each other, and they were also peeking at the little prince, and some even deliberately dodged the little prince's eyes, so as not to be named by the little prince.

No one responded! Seeing these pampered subordinate generals, all of them were like turtles with shrunken heads at this time, and the little prince's already raging anger was like being poured with a bucket of hot oil, burning his eyes!

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom gritted his teeth, eager to wipe out these turtle grandsons with his sword immediately! But the last bit of reason reminded him that now was not the time.

Immediately, the little prince of the Moon Kingdom looked at a trusted general beside him.

After seeing the little prince's eyes, General Michael knew that he could not help but respond, and said: "Your Highness, we might as well lure him with profit, take a box of gold and silver treasures, and put it in front of those sergeants, I don't think they will be unmoved...... If they don't like it, we can also order the craftsmen to build a few trebuchets from nearby materials and smash the West Lookout Tower. ”

General Michael did this, not because he really understood the enemy's tactics, but because he could only think of starting with his own army. Perhaps by doing so, you can rebuild morale and break through the enemy's defenses.

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's a good idea. Then it's up to you to persuade them to surrender, and send a few craftsmen to make three trebuchets and ladders at once. If they don't surrender, then divide them into five horses and feed them to the dogs. The little prince's tone was flat, but every word he spit out was a chilling cold murderous aura.

It didn't take long for Wu Zhendong and the others to find three knights, holding white flags, slowly approaching the West Lookout Tower.

"Our Highness has spoken!" General Mack, enduring his fear, ordered two soldiers to carry a box of gold and silver treasures and place them less than twenty meters from the West Watchtower, "as long as you are obedient, this box of treasure will be yours." This chest of treasure is enough for you to live a prosperous life. Moreover, His Highness also promised to appoint the head of the watchtower as a centurion, and the military salary would be doubled. ”

When Wu Zhendong heard this, he laughed and responded: "Give you fifteen seconds, get out immediately!"

General Mike wanted to say something, but Wu Zhendong didn't give him a chance to speak, and fired a shot at the treasure chest.

Mike was startled and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to lift the treasure chest and leave.

However, Wu Zhendong, who "saw the money", did not give him a chance, fired a few more shots, and let him leave the treasure chest.

General Mack had no choice but to return empty-handed and report to the little prince.

At this time, Wu Zhendong ordered two soldiers to immediately go out to move the boxes.

The little prince listened to General Mack's words, and when he was angry, he saw the soldiers from the West Watch Tower come out to grab the chest, and he was immediately angry again, and ordered a cavalry to go out to grab the treasure chest.

Wu Zhendong immediately ordered the soldiers to attack when the enemy entered the effective firing range, and assisted his comrades in moving back the treasure chest.

Another round of gunfire successfully held back the cavalry of the coalition forces.

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom saw this. Enraged, he ordered the craftsmen to step up the manufacture of trebuchets.

The tower of the West Watchtower retrieved a chest of treasures, and the hearts of the people rejoiced.

Wu Zhendong smiled slightly, and said to everyone: "There has long been a rule in the army, we will keep 30% of the spoils, we will divide them, and the rest will be handed in. Perhaps, there will be new loot. ”

Hahaha...... The crowd laughed, most of them nodding and storing the box in the watchtower.

An hour and a half later, the little prince of the Moon Kingdom slept in his tent, and the general reported to him that the trebuchet had been built. Moreover, this time, the craftsmen made not three, but five trebuchets.

After a while, five trebuchets, two hundred meters away, were lined up and aimed at the westward watchtower.

On top of the watchtower, Wu Zhendong discovered five enemy trebuchets early in the morning.

"Sir, the enemy is within our range of attack, I ask for a preemptive strike!" said Yan Jiu, the gunner inside the West Watch Tower.

"Yan Jiu, in the fastest time, you have blown up five trebuchets, are you sure? Otherwise, I am worried that the enemy army will have countermeasures. Wu Zhendong said. Whether the coalition forces have any means of counterattacking, Wu Zhendong does not know, but he knows that the Xinghua army is not invincible, and there are some high-level professionals who can dodge mortar attacks.

"I'm sure!" Yan Jiu replied. The mortar in the watchtower is a small-caliber mortar for infantry, which has a shorter range, but it is much farther than a trebuchet.

Then, Wu Zhendong said to the two snipers in the west-looking watchtower: "In a while, you have to suppress the trebuchet and create an opportunity for Yan Jiu." "If there are no snipers to attack the enemy operating the trebuchet with a sniper rifle, the Westlook Tower will be attacked by a boulder. In fact, a sniper can only attack the operator of a trebuchet, and to destroy a trebuchet, a mortar is still needed.

"Yan Jiu, after destroying the trebuchet, you can find a way to attack that group of enemies who are brightly dressed and have colorful feathers on their heads, I think they are the commanders of the enemy army. Wu Zhendong handed the telescope to Yan Jiu and pointed out the target to him.

Yan Jiu nodded and told Wu Zhendong that he knew.

Wu Zhendong didn't talk much, there is no need to say much about things in the army, if you understand, you understand, and it is useless to talk more. Besides, the enemy army was in front, and Wu Zhendong didn't have so much time to give some pointers.

Although the enemy's trebuchet swung away for a while, Wu Zhendong still had no fear. He continued to order the soldiers in the watchtower, divided into two squads, to take turns climbing the wall to defend against the enemy.

In the camp of the coalition army, the little prince of the Moon Kingdom was notified by his subordinates, and arrived in front of the battle to wait and see the trebuchet. He hoped that the trebuchet would be able to eliminate the thorn in his eye, otherwise he would have been very depressed.

"The trebuchet is ready, now it's time to move the boulders. The general in charge of the trebuchet gave a loud order, ordering the soldiers to carry the boulder to the trebuchet.

Shout!

An eerie voice rang out from the West Lookout Tower. The little prince of the Moon Kingdom, as well as the generals, all heard it and were a little puzzled.

Boom!

Before the little prince of the Moon Kingdom could react, a trebuchet was blown up. The soldier closest to the trebuchet was also killed by the explosion.

"Enemy attack!" The army of the Moon Country was a little confused.

"Steady! Don't panic!" there are generals trying to maintain the army.

"Quick!, throw stones at once!" cried the little prince.

"Quick! Your Highness has an order, and immediately lift the boulder onto the trebuchet. Mike shouted too.

Two soldiers, carefully carrying the boulder, prepared to put it on the trebuchet's firing rack.

Burst!

A soldier was shot in the leg and fell to his knees. The boulder he was carrying also fell to the ground, and another soldier, trying to avoid the boulder's foot, also fell. This is the sniper of the Westview Tower.

Seeing this, the little prince of the Moon Kingdom and the generals were taken aback.

Boom!

Another explosion and another trebuchet was scrapped.

Mike, a close confidant of the little prince of the Moon Kingdom, began to feel uneasy, and stepped forward to say to the little prince: "Your Highness, I'm afraid we are within the enemy's attack range, please go backwards, don't hurt you." ”

The little prince of the Moon Kingdom was taken aback, he was not a mediocre talent, Mike's words, he understood it in less than three seconds.

"I appoint General Mack, as the commander of this operation, and the battle here will be handed over to General Mack!" said the little prince, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to take him away.

When Mike heard this, he was helpless, he also wanted to hide, but he couldn't help but listen to the orders of the little prince.

Looking west into the watchtower, Wu Zhendong picked up the pen again and drew 1 character on a small notebook.

"Hahaha, I killed one more enemy, three in total. You two are not as good as me!" Wu Zhendong said proudly to the two snipers.

When the other two snipers heard this, they did not answer, allowing Wu Zhendong to be arrogant.

However, Wu Zhendong's arrogance was so arrogant that even Yan Jiu, a mortar gunner not far away, couldn't see it.

"Sir, you're smug and laughing ugly. Yan Jiu said.

When Wu Zhendong heard this, he rushed over and knocked on Yan Jiu's head, and said angrily: "Of the five trebuchets, you only blew up two, and there are three ......."

Yan Jiu was a little aggrieved and didn't dare to say anything fair.

Hearing this, the two snipers smiled slightly, looked at Yan Jiu's gaze, and also softened a little. Wu Zhendong killed a lot of enemies, but the two of them also killed a lot of enemies, but no one would show it like Wu Zhendong.

Yan Jiu corrected Zhu Yuan and launched again.

Boom!

"Yay!" Seeing that he hit the target again, Yan Jiu shouted happily.

At this moment, the coalition forces are already somewhat chaotic.

Two trebuchets finally put the boulder in time and threw it out.

Two boulders, falling on the left and right sides of the West Lookout Tower, missed.

"Continue to place the boulder and adjust the angle!" The general next to the enemy trebuchet was not annoyed, and continued to order the slingers to fill the boulder as soon as possible.

Wu Zhendong was startled when the boulder flew in.

Fortunately, the boulder did not hit the West Lookout Tower or the West Look Wall.

"Yan Jiu, hurry up!" Wu Zhendong shouted. He could not tolerate another stone throw from the enemy.

Bang, bang, the snipers of the Westwatch, keep shooting, preventing the enemy from continuing to fill the boulder on top of the trebuchet. (To be continued.) )
