925, air strike
The army of the Tomb of the Gods, braving the arrows like a torrential rain, began to charge, they suffered heavy casualties, many people rushed to the side of the city wall, they were shot to death, they did not expect, Wang Zhaodi actually had so many bows and arrows, they thought that they controlled the quarry, Wang Zhaodi could not have enough iron to make arrows, but Wang Zhaodi through rapid mining, has obtained the first batch of iron ore, she refined the iron ore, half of which was used to make arrowheads!
The first wave of the army of the tomb was all killed, and the second wave of the army attacked, so they changed their tactics, they all carried large shields, they lined up in a dense formation, and then raised the shields above their heads, Wang Zhaodi's archers fired bows and arrows, and all of them shot on the shields, and they could not cause damage to the troops under the shields.
Wang Zhaodi stood on the city wall, saw that the bow and arrow had no effect, so she also changed her tactics, she carried all the pre-prepared stove braziers on the city wall, and then glued fuel oil to the arrows, and after igniting them on the stove brazier, they were immediately launched, this is a fire arrow, a fire arrow, the power is not greater than the arrow, but a large group of people fire arrows at the same time, it will produce a very powerful flame typhoid fever.
What's even more deadly is that the shields in the hands of the army of the tomb below are all made of cowhide, and as soon as the cowhide encounters the fire arrows, they all burn, so they can no longer hide under the burning cowhide shield, they all discard the shields, and some of them are not discarded in time, and they are burned to themselves by the flames.
They wailed and retreated in terror, and many of the warriors who were burned by the flames fell to the ground and rolled, and the scene was extremely chaotic and tragic!
Wang Zhaodi ordered all the soldiers to stop shooting, and the army of the Divine Tomb on the opposite side also stopped attacking, because they found that the defenders on the opposite side of the stone city were different from any previous army, their combat effectiveness was very strong, and their tactics were novel, and they should not be underestimated!
Wang Zhaodi counted his casualties, and how many arrows were left, and soon a sergeant in charge of logistics reported the number, and the number of troops they lost in this battle was less than ten, but the arrows were consumed very much, and half of them had been used!
This shows that the arrows in their hands can only support tomorrow day, and on the third day, if the enemy continues to attack, they will have no arrows to defend!
Wang Zhaodi's mind immediately appeared to borrow arrows from grass boats, which was the masterpiece of Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms period, I don't know if this time, can I learn to borrow arrows from grass boats, and also deceive some arrows from the army of the opposite tomb!?
Wang Zhaodi carefully compared the difference between the grass boat borrowing arrows and the current battlefield, the grass boat borrowing arrows is on the river, it is a water battle, and this time it is on land, it is a siege battle, the grass boat borrows arrows, there is a foggy sky, and this time the battle, the weather is sunny, and there is no fog at all.
If these two conditions are not met, the idea of borrowing arrows from the grass boat will not be realized, but Wang Zhaodi thought about it with his brain, and felt that it was not possible for the grass boat to borrow arrows, but it was achievable to attack from the air and then borrow arrows from the air, she issued an order to Yang Wu, asking him to lead the griffin army to launch an attack on the position of the Divine Tomb, not seeking to kill many enemies, just to play momentum, and be able to disturb the enemy army!
Yang Wu accepted the order, and immediately asked all the griffon legions to prepare to take off, and the eighteen gargoyles were also prepared to attack, and then they flew together and launched a dive attack on the position of the tomb army, and the flocks of griffins swooped down, and the momentum was very strong, as if a gust of divine wind was blowing, and all the guards on the entire position were swept into the air at once, and the position was full of fire, which was knocked over by the griffin brazier and burned to the camp tent.
The general of the Tomb immediately commanded his archers to come out and prepare to defend against the griffins, because the griffons are flying units, so they must be shot with bows and arrows to deal with them.
At this time, Yang Wu had already led the griffin army back to the position on the top of the mountain, and Wang Zhaodi released her fake griffin legion, these fake griffins were kites made of grass, Wang Zhaodi asked the sergeant to release it from the castle, and from a distance, it seemed that the griffin was flying again, ready to assemble, and then dive attack!
The guard of the tomb immediately ordered the archers to advance, rushed to the bottom of the place where these griffons gathered, and began to shoot fiercely, the bow and arrow shot into the sky like a meteor, and shot the kite made of grass, and the kite was immediately stained with bows and arrows, and Wang Zhaodi ordered the warriors to recover the kite, so he harvested a lot of bows and arrows.
The guard of the Tomb of the Gods, knowing that he had fallen for Wang Zhaodi's tricks, was full of regrets, but he couldn't regret it, he sent someone to inform the Tomb Castle that the newly added reinforcements had mobilized his army and divided into two waves, one group of people besieged Wang Zhaodi's Stone City, and the other group of people guarded Yang Wu's griffin army stationed on the top of the mountain!
They besieged the castle, hoping to trap Wang Zhaodi in the castle, but Yang Wu used a griffin to airdrop a lot of wild things into the castle every day, as well as fresh water, which made the siege tactics of the Divine Tomb come to naught.
The guard of the Tomb of God decided to break Yang Wu's griffin legion first, he mobilized superior forces and launched an attack on Yang Wu's griffin legion, but Yang Wu saw that the momentum was not right, and immediately led the griffin to transfer, they are flying units, it is very easy to transfer, but the army of the Tomb is difficult to move, because the top of the mountain where Yang Wu chose to be stationed is extremely steep, and they want to climb up, which is extremely difficult!
In this expedition, the Tomb did not use its own flying combat troops, which was the biggest mistake, and the reinforcements added later, there were still no flying combat troops, so they knew that it was impossible to break through Stone City, and it was meaningless for them to besiege it, so they planned to retreat.
Wang Zhaodi did not pursue them, so they let them retreat automatically, Wang Zhaodi and the people of Stone Town, all cheered victory, they through their brave resistance, under the pressure of the army of the Divine Tomb, they maintained their dignity, not defeated by the Divine Tomb, they gained precious freedom in a short time!
Wang Zhaodi and Yang Wu didn't feel relaxed, because they knew that the army of the Divine Tomb would inevitably make a comeback if they took the initiative to retreat this time, and the next time they came again, they would inevitably bring the units fighting in the air, and I am afraid that it would be even more difficult to resist at that time!
"We have to find out what their air combat unit is!" Wang Zhaodi said to Yang Wu.
Yang Wu also nodded and said, "If their air combat unit is something more powerful than the griffin, then I'm afraid we won't be able to sit still, if it's not as good as the griffin, then there is still a little chance!"
