Chapter 20: Hand-to-hand combat

The soldiers on the tower of the city saw that the incendiary bomb attack was very effective, and the Persian charging soldiers in front of them were also killed and wounded by nearly hundreds, and their morale immediately increased. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, Li Zhan was worried, the consumption of incendiary bombs in the round of defense just now was also very huge, and the overall consumption was nearly two-thirds. And now that the other party's coach is personally in command, looking at his gestures, it seems that there are other movements, and it should be about to dispatch the catapult.

Sure enough, after the white-robed black man gave the order, a phalanx behind him began to change constantly, and the sound of thrashing kept coming.

Soon after, three huge catapults came into view, and dozens of soldiers each pushed one to stop at a distance of 100 meters from the city wall.

The topography of Custer Town is mostly sand and gravel, and there are very few huge stones, so when the catapult was built, Li Zhan didn't expect what the other party would use as ammunition.

But at this moment, hundreds of Persian soldiers began to charge.

30 meters up! Throwing!

Another round of incendiary grenades was thrown, but the soldiers stopped at a distance of 30 meters, their goal not to charge, but to drag away the bodies of the dead soldiers.

"Stop attacking!" Li Zhan finally understood the other party's purpose, he wanted to use those corpses as ammunition for catapults, the corpses of hundreds of dead stormtroopers were enough to make hundreds of ammunition, and it was obviously an unwise choice to throw incendiary bombs now.

"The whole army is looking for cover, they are going to attack with catapults!"

As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of "whining" in the air, and the human flesh and ammunition smashed towards the city tower, thumping. Several soldiers were unable to dodge and were hit by the corpses of Persian soldiers, and immediately collapsed to the ground, their whole bodies convulsed, unable to move.

"Get down!" Li Zhan shouted loudly.

The other party's use of corpses as ammunition for catapults is really cruel enough, and it is also the most effective. The density of human bones can even be comparable to that of stones, and these soldiers who were burned to death, their corpses were burned, and the hardness of the bones became stronger, which was a nightmare for Li Zhan and them.

The corpses of Persian soldiers flew in the air, and although the soldiers on the tower found cover, several of them were unfortunately hit in the head and died on the spot.

In the same way, under constant attack, the outer city wall can begin to loosen a little, and the inner body of the city wall itself is poured with sand and gravel mixed with mud, and the inner and outer rock walls are supported by the castle tower.

"Bang!" Another corpse slammed into the city wall, followed by a rock that loosened and fell into the wall, followed by a large rock fall, and the nearly 20-meter-long wall of the eastern wall of Custer Town collapsed, turning into a ladder leading from the bottom to the city.

"Tofu slag project?!" Seeing the collapse of the city wall, Li Zhan was immediately shocked, and he did not expect that the sturdy city wall had collapsed under the impact of hundreds of corpses, and provided a convenient passage for the Persian army to attack the city.

The whining sound gradually disappeared, and at this time, the city wall had already collapsed in two places, and the soldiers who had been hiding on it had also fallen, although it was not a big problem, but it was directly exposed to the enemy's attack.

"Looks like it's going to be hand-to-hand combat!" It had only been a dozen minutes, and the defenses of the eastern wall of Custer Town had collapsed, and there were not many incendiary bombs left, and the only thing that could still do it was the pit he had had dug in front of him.

Once all the traps and incendiary grenades are gone, they will come into direct confrontation with the Persian army.

"Has Mario's assassination begins?"

Li Zhan knew very well that in less than half an hour, the Persian army would be able to storm the city and engage in hand-to-hand combat with his own soldiers, and Mario had said that he would send Carter and them to carry out assassination operations, but until now, there has been no movement, and not even the shadows of the two of them have been seen.

Everything was just as Li Zhan thought, after the collapse of the city wall, the second siege charge of the Persian army began. After going through the obstacles of incendiary bombs and pits, the first Persian soldier managed to rush under the city walls and, with a quick run, began to storm the tower.

"Kill!" Li Zhan gave an order, took the lead, raised his weapon and slashed down at the soldier.

Maybe it was because he was the first to rush to the city wall, the Persian soldier was excited, but he didn't notice that Li Zhan on the city wall had already swung his long knife down, and the blade was in a different place.

With the first there was the second, and the death of that Persian soldier did not cause any deterrence to the other Persian soldiers, but only made them even more insane.

"Rush!" Persian soldiers continued to storm the tower, and in just a few minutes, there were already twenty or thirty corpses of Persian soldiers lying under the tower. In the distance, the white-robed black man shook his head contemptuously and smiled, and slowly entered the middle of the team, and at the same time, the white tiger order appeared in his hand, and the soldiers around him continued to roar as if they had taken medicine, and began to charge the whole army.

By now, Li Zhan had already killed four or five Persian soldiers, and he didn't have time to listen carefully to the system's prompts, the crisis in front of him made him dare not be distracted at all, and the two people around him, Heita and Mata, were also quite accomplished, and the three of them together had killed at least ten Persian soldiers. At the moment they have the upper hand as a defence, at least at the beginning of hand-to-hand combat without any casualties.

However, the Persian soldiers continued to pour into the tower, and after all, people's physical strength was limited, and some slave fighters began to be unable to succeed, and were seized by the Persian soldiers. The wide-backed scimitar slashed through it, bleeding from the wound, and then the other Persian soldiers behind him made up for it, and a slave fighter let out a terrible howl and died in battle.

Howls followed, and more and more slaves and slave fighters died tragically under the scimitars of the Persian soldiers.

Also in the face of the ferocious offensive of the Persian soldiers, the personal guards led by Li Zhan showed their rank superiority, and there were no casualties in the battle, but most of the slave fighters and slaves were killed and wounded.

After hacking a Persian soldier to death, Li Zhan found that there were only 100 ordinary soldiers left in the interface of his army.

In just a few dozen minutes, two-thirds of the combat power had been defeated, and looking at the endless stream of Persian soldiers, Li Zhan let out an angry cry: "Mario! Damn, you TMD do it! ”

Now that the Persian army is charging with all its troops, it is the best time for Carter and them to act, and at this time, there is no personal guard by the side of the white-robed black man, so he looks coldly at what is happening in front of him.

"Unless there is a miracle, you can't live!" He looked at Li Zhan and said to himself, "If you weren't a Roman, with this fearless courage alone, I would definitely take you into account and become the most powerful weapon by my side." ”

"Drink!" Li Zhan exerted his strength again, and the long knife slashed across the cheek of the Persian soldier in front of him, the huge and hideous wound made him think that if he died in battle, would he look the same as him?
