But after all, the strength of Yun Xiaohan's side is too small, only more than 10,000 people, and the post-war pension (resurrection fee) is five times the normal, and the materials in the city do not know when they will be moved, and more importantly, Yun Xiaohan does not know whether these friendly soldiers of the Sea Lion Legion, the Thunderstorm Legion and the Pro-Guard Army can be resurrected, these are the elite main forces of the Sardinia Territory, once they suffer too many casualties and cannot be resurrected, Lia's control over the Sardinia Territory will decline, and it may even affect the situation in the entire southern theater of the empire.

Therefore, these city-defending equipment is an important capital in Yun Xiaohan's hands, which is related to the outcome of the follow-up battle, and only by protecting these city-defending equipment can the side achieve greater results at a smaller cost.

And to do this, there are only two ways, one is to arrange strong personnel to protect the equipment, and the other is to do everything possible to destroy the enemy's equipment.

After all, "Choice" is a Western fantasy background, and there are still many people who can carry the stone bullets of a simple catapult, such as the Guards, the Red Shirts, the Thunderstorm Legion or the elite veterans of the Sea Lion Legion, who are not expected to be killed in seconds if they are hit by a stone bullet.

But the power of the solid cannonball of the magic crystal cannon is much stronger, and it is estimated that Yun Xiaohan and those official NPCs can withstand it, and it is even possible that those official NPCs with personal combat potential below 2 stars will be directly killed in an instant after being hit by a single shot.

And even if those official NPCs with personal combat potential of 2-4 stars are not killed in seconds, they will be hit hard, and they will not be able to enter the battle again in a short time, while official NPCs can command soldiers, and their presence can allow soldiers to make more reasonable battlefield responses, such as choosing more suitable attack targets, timely filling, etc., which is equivalent to comprehensively improving the soldier's AI, which is very important.

Of course, these NPC officers have much higher AI than soldiers, and they will actively dodge stone shells and cannonballs, and will not be easily hit, but if the enemy's bullet rain is too dense, their safety will be threatened.

Yun Xiaohan would definitely not do anything to use NPC officials to protect equipment, the value of NPC officials is much higher than that of equipment, and the results they can obtain by commanding soldiers are far greater than that of protecting equipment, and he will only do this kind of thing when his brain is broken.

But it can't be protected at all, Yun Xiaohan thought about it, and decided to let his redshirts protect the equipment.

Yun Xiaohan and Liya are grasshoppers tied to a rope now, the Red Shirts are his territory soldiers after all, and they can be resurrected after death, it is nothing more than spending more money, as long as Liya can still firmly control the situation in the southern theater of the empire, he will be able to obtain various benefits in the future, even if there is a temporary loss, he can make up for it in the future. Otherwise, it may lead to the collapse of the entire situation, and thus the long-term interests will be seriously damaged, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

Defense is passive after all, and for an extremely aggressive person like Yun Xiaohan, destroying the enemy's equipment is a better and more in line with his wishes.

In fact, Yun Xiaohan already had a plan in his heart at this time, but the risk was too great, which made him a little hesitant, once he made a mistake in the process of action, it could lead to the failure of the entire battle.

Just when Yun Xiaohan couldn't make up his mind, one of the magic crystal cannons of the Shang Alliance had already entered the range of his thunder spear, and a total of 8 people pushed these magic crystal cannons in front and back, and the wheels were deeply sunken in the ground, leaving two deep ruts.

These 8 NPC soldiers who push the cannon are all 48-level elite-level strength warriors who are tall and tall, and their blood volume is 59000, which is 7000 points higher than the shield guard, but the shield guard is all level 46, which is two levels lower than the level of these warriors, and the combat power level is only the powerful level, one level lower, so it is not surprising that there is more blood, but this elite-level strength warrior is definitely elite in the enemy array, and it is obviously impossible to have too much.

In the push, except for the muzzle side, all other angles of the magic crystal cannon were blocked by these eight power-type warriors. And the distance was too far, Yun Xiaohan was not much sure that he would directly hit the magic crystal cannon at the limit range of 120 yards.

Therefore, Yun Xiaohan endured it again, and put this magic crystal cannon at a distance of nearly 100 yards before making a move.

Although Yun Xiaohan had carefully calibrated and the movement speed of the magic crystal cannon was also very slow, his first thunder spear still missed, but it didn't miss much, and it hit the pusher soldier on the left side of the magic crystal cannon.

These power warriors don't have shields, and their physical defense is not as good as shield guards, so the result is still an instant kill.

Yun Xiaohan immediately condensed the second thunder spear, and after a slight adjustment, threw it again, this time he didn't miss again, hitting the magic crystal cannon, but it only caused 39,264 damage to the magic crystal cannon, but the durability of the magic crystal cannon was 70,000, so it was not able to directly destroy this magic crystal cannon.

Yun Xiaohan was not too surprised by this result, after all, the magic crystal cannon is a weapon, and the effect of thunder magic attacks on equipment is extremely poor, and it is estimated that more than 7% of the nearly 40,000 damage is caused by physical attacks.

After the 20 magic crystal cannons had all gone forward about 10 yards, Yun Xiaohan finally ordered all the defending equipment to attack the nearest enemy magic crystal cannon.

8 trebuchets, 8 crossbows, 18 magic crystal cannons, a total of 34 siege equipment, the first round of strikes ended, only one magic crystal cannon shell hit the enemy's magic crystal cannon, or ricochet, the shooting accuracy is so low that it is simply scary to death, and even the power fighters who push the equipment did not kill one, but accidentally injured a few other enemy troops, but because the 30,000 enemy troops only came up with three or four thousand people plus a part of the shield guard troops, so the results achieved are still not much.

Sure enough, it is okay to attack a large army, but it is impossible to point where to hit a designated target.

Yun Xiaohan was a little disappointed, but he knew that this was the first round of test firing after all, and the requirements should not be too high, and he believed that it would be a little higher after calibration. Moreover, the gunners on Yun Xiaohan's side are all professional artillerymen of the Thunderstorm Legion, even if it is a little uncomfortable to shoot artillery on land, but after all, land is more stable than ships, and Yun Xiaohan believes that they can quickly adjust.

Among the three types of city defense equipment, the crossbow machine has the fastest loading speed, 5-6 seconds; The magic crystal is second, 8-10 seconds, and the trebuchet is the slowest 12-14 seconds, so after the first round of projection, it is not possible to launch a second strike immediately. And it will not be possible to make a whole salvo again in the next round of blows.

However, fortunately, the advance speed of the enemy's siege equipment is also extremely slow, so Yun Xiaohan estimates that he can still perform several rounds of strikes before the enemy's equipment puts his own city wall into the attack range.

Soon, the second wave of the Ballista's strike was launched first, but it still had few successes, but fortunately, one of the Power fighters was killed.
