Chapter 168: Artillery Execution

The breath of slaughter was already close at hand, and the thunderous battle roar resounded in the sky, if it was a new soldier, his legs might have weakened in the face of such a battle. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Are you here? ”

General Louis, who was standing on the city wall, said softly, even if he saw the black pressure of the enemy army, his head was oozing fine beads of sweat, he could see that the number of enemy troops was much smaller than planned, and the enemy assigned to attack the north gate where he was located was as many as 20,000 people, and it seemed that the enemy wanted to drag Louis to the death, as long as the city gate controlled by the 52nd Army was broken, it would be their victory.

Hanging their battle flags on the city walls is the battlefield etiquette of the Saran Empire on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can produce some miraculous effects, just like this time if they don't hang the flag, the enemy will not be able to guess the troops they belong to, if the main force is arranged to attack the east gate or the south gate, then the city of Kane will be dangerous, and now the enemy is worried that if their main force goes to attack the wall of the 52nd Legion, then Louis can easily pack up his enemies and go to help, for both sides, if they don't hang the flag, it will cause some bad possibility, so no side dares to bet on such a probability。

Standing at the forefront of the coup army are the two corps commanders, as a former colleague Louis has more or less seen them, the commander of the 75th Legion Kiprans and the 122nd Legion Commander Hiskanza, the two of them are also battlefield generals in terms of qualifications, but unfortunately although they are brave in battle, but due to their mediocre command ability, they have not made enough feats to be included in the three major fortresses, for which they themselves are also very unwilling, this time they took the initiative to come to attack the north gate controlled by the elite legion, I am afraid that it is to prove themselves, after all, fighting with the 52nd Legion, which is also an ordinary legion, there is no way to prove that they are not weaker than the commander of the elite legion。

Kiplin stared at Louis in the city, and the elite legion commander showed no signs of fear in the face of an enemy who outnumbered his own soldiers.

"General Louie, as the commander of the Fortress of Prok, you naturally have a lot of combat experience and good command ability, I think if you stubbornly resist here, it will be a waste of your talents, surrender, maybe you can be promoted to a high-ranking general. Hiskanza smiled in Louis's direction, hoping that it could be resolved peacefully, but the truth was not as good as it should be, and the two sides of the coup had reached a point where neither side could stop it.

"Excuse me, don't you think it's ridiculous to say such a textbook persuasion yourself," Louis looked at the enemy with a blank face, all the warriors around him had entered the highest level of alert, as long as the enemy got a little closer, he would be hit like a storm, watching the Hiskantha become a little gloomy expression, Louis continued: "Hiskansa, Kiplins, you two are also battle-hardened generals, don't be so inked if you want to fight." ”、

"Alright," the two legion commanders glanced at each other, both raised their swords and pointed at the city wall in front of them, and shouted, "Siege!"

"Kill!" Siruda, the commander of the second regiment under Kiplins, rushed to the forefront of the troops, only to see him draw the bowstring with his bow and arrows pointed at the defenders on the city wall, and a magic archer fell to the ground, the chest of the arrow was bleeding profusely, and he was quickly carried down and replaced by another person on top, perhaps Louis, who was constantly moving around and commanding and had good martial arts, was difficult to be killed by a single blow, but these defenders who were like fixed batteries were like live targets for Siruda.

When the blow was successful, Siruda immediately pulled out his long knife and flew the falling arrows one by one, he could do this, but others couldn't, only to see the soldiers who rushed to the front fell down in waves, but this is the case in siege warfare, for the besieging side many times have to take human lives to pile up.

Shout!

Another magic archer fell in response, and Louie, who looked at his subordinate who had no breath and was carried down, frowned slightly.

"This guy is so good at archery, he must get rid of it first, Malakmon!"

"In!"

"Kill me the guy who killed two of our companions in a row!"

"Leave it to me!" Louis nodded as he watched Malakmon take the order to his artillery position, if his side was stronger in this battle, he would even want to capture and surrender this brave and fearless enemy with excellent bowing skills, but the current situation does not allow him to do so, the defenders of the entire north city gate are 5,000 people, and the defenders of the west city gate are 6,000 people, but I don't know how many enemies there are, and now all threats must be wiped out.

Siruda was about to shoot the third arrow but instinctively sensed that danger was approaching, and when he saw the muzzle of the cannon on the city gate facing him, a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, no matter how brave and fearless, he would not be arrogant enough to think that he could block the cannonball with a knife or arrow, but he could not help Siruda dodge, and Marakmon gave the order that five shells burst out of the five cannons, blasting a crater from where he was, and not even the corpse could be seen in the pit.

"It's not too embarrassing to be killed by five cannonballs," Louis said softly, he looked ahead and suddenly looked at him: "Attention all magic archers and magicians, give priority to using rockets and fire magic to deal with the enemy's siege vehicles!"

As soon as the words fell, eight siege engines drove forward, and the magic archers and magic envoys naturally did not let go of these eight threatening big guys, and for a while a large part of the firepower was attracted by them, and then several big guys drove over from the enemy formation.

Thundered!

Several orbs that looked like stone projectiles blasted out of the trebuchet, blasting the city wall more than 200 meters away into one crater after another.

"Are you only on the trebuchet now? It's a pity that our walls are only made of these stone bullets... Louis looked at the catapults and the siege vehicles that were still moving forward in the flames, and suddenly thought of something, he ran to the side of the city wall, looked down at the color behind him, and immediately said to his subordinates: "Quick, stop attacking with fire, use ice arrows and ice attribute magic on the siege vehicles!"

"Did you see through our plan? Kiplins said in a deep voice, what they threw was not actually a stone bullet, but a special bomb filled with flammable and explosive liquid, as long as it knocked down the city wall, it would produce a strong impact force and leave such a flammable and explosive liquid on the city wall, he calculated before the battle that the siege vehicle appeared and the defenders would attack with fire, so he specially made a special siege vehicle that was wood on the outside and fireproof material on the inside, and could automatically hit forward, at this time, if Louis did not find out about this plan, wait until the siege vehicle hit the city wall, the burning flame will ignite or even detonate the city wall, even if it does not explode, but the raging flames can turn the inside of the city wall into a huge steamer, as for the ordinary soldiers who have been being cannon fodder, it is completely to hide people's eyes.
