Chapter 181: Attacking the "City"?!

Tang Ye went to the city wall to look down, and the enemy retreated in an orderly manner, without a trace of panic.

Seeing this scene, a trace of confusion rose in Tang Ye's heart.

It's not exactly like a retreat, it's more like a premeditated retreat.

Tang Ye said the incomprehension in his heart and Zhuge Gu, who came upstairs again. When Zhuge Gu heard this, he immediately showed a deep groan.

A few minutes later, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly watched the enemy troops in the distance.

However, firstly, he was old, and secondly, he did not have the extraordinary eyesight of Tang Ye, so he couldn't see what kind of changes the trebuchet was doing in the distance.

He knew that Tang Ye had good eyesight, so he hurriedly asked the other party to observe the changes in the catapult.

Tang Ye looked carefully at the catapult for a while, then suddenly frowned, and said in a calm voice: "They turned the direction of the catapult and pushed the catapult back some distance...... They're going to be! ”

"Pierce the walls with catapults!" Zhuge Gu said the unfinished words for Tang Ye!

"And this kind of operation?!" Tang Ye exclaimed directly, obviously feeling that such a move was incredible.

However, Zhuge Gu nodded and said:

"Catapults are one of the most terrifying siege weapons, and their destructive power is specifically aimed at thick walls. And the walls of a small city like our Eight Fingers City are generally only one meter thick at the thinnest point. ”

"Although under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a trebuchet to cut through the wall, because its purpose is to attack the enemy on the tower, and it will not act on the wall."

"But that's just a normal situation after all, looking at the opponent's posture at this moment, it is to combine the power of the three catapults to punch a hole in the city wall!"

Tang Ye's mood suddenly became solemn when he heard this.

In order to be able to fully exert the power of the catapult, such a method was actually conceived...... Tang Ye guessed that there must be a bold and careful thinker in the other camp!

Now that you can see the other party's intentions, you have to find a way to solve it. Otherwise, once the other party really implements the plan perfectly, then it may not take more than a day for the Eight Fingers City to be broken!

Once the city is broken and they can't hold on, then the system's heavenly fire punishment will inevitably come after the mission fails!

Although Tang Ye had never seen the punishment happen, he did not doubt its authenticity at all.

Because the rewards for successful missions are so real, how can the penalties for failed missions be false?

Having said that, how can it be so easy to stop the other party?

Tang Ye looked at the three catapults that were about to move, and kept thinking about countermeasures in his heart.

Unless these three catapults can be destroyed, it will be difficult to get out of the predicament in front of them!

But the three catapults were completely wrapped in the middle by a dense crowd of enemies, let alone destroy, even if they were close, it was difficult to do so!

Then directly lead the troops out of the city to fight?

It's even less reliable. It was night at the moment, and they did not know at all how many enemy troops there were, and what the situation was, and a rash dispatch of troops under such circumstances would undoubtedly put them in danger.

That...... What to do?

Just when Tang Ye was so helpless, the enemy's catapult was finally started.

I only heard three sounds of "bang bang bang" in the distance, and three boulders with a diameter of half a meter flew towards the city wall one after another.

When the first stone hit the city wall, Tang Ye only felt the soles of his feet tremble violently. Before he could stabilize his figure, a second and third tremors accompanied by a violent sound came from the front of the city wall!
