Chapter 854: The Battle of the City Gate
The injuries on his body constantly stimulate the ferocity of the orcs.
The bloodied orcs roared wildly.
They kept pushing forward under the fire of the defending troops.
It's all a posture of forcibly breaking through the city gates.
No one can deny that this momentum is appalling.
In the face of such orc troops.
Zhao Pan, who was standing on the wall, was already full of solemnity between his expressions.
As the distance continues to close, the orc troops begin to gradually move out of the range of the three-bow bed crossbow and return cannon.
Without the fire suppression of these two large ordnances.
The offensive of the orc forces became more ferocious.
The speed of advancement has been greatly improved.
In a short time, they rushed under the city gate.
Without hesitation, in the face of such a situation, Zhao Pan made a move.
Directly signaled the soldiers on the wall to greet them with rolling logs and stones.
This kind of siege lasted for a week.
Over the course of a week, the orc forces launched four attacks.
The whole battle situation has gone from the initial stalemate to the current non-stop consumption of each other.
The resources of defending the city in the mountain city of Northland are decreasing day by day.
During this period, the most troublesome thing was that this group of orcs was pressed outside the city.
So that they simply can't go out of the city to recycle resources.
Maintaining this state of mutual consumption, the orc troops launched their fifth attack on the mountain city of the Northland at noon a week later!
After so many battles in a row, the orcs undoubtedly thoroughly figured out the attack methods of the defending troops.
At the same time, one by one, they all have experience and memory.
Now that they are facing that kind of firepower suppression again, they can be said to be not panicking at all.
The orcs in the front row, holding high the shields in their hands, pushed forward all the way against the fire of the defending troops.
In the face of such a situation, the more instigated it is, the more dangerous it is, the faster it rushes, and the easier it is to rush into safety.
That's the experience they've gained from fighting in a few battles in a row.
The orc troops, who quickly rushed to the bottom of the city, began to storm the city gates in a frenzied manner.
The dense and muffled sound of 'bang-bang' stimulated the nerves of every soldier behind the city gates.
With each blow, the entire city gate seemed to shake violently.
It has to be said that the strength of these orcs is simply heart-palpitating.
One by one, they all looked like humanoid siege vehicles.
So many battles to defend the city have been fought in succession.
The gates had already been devastated.
Zhao Pan couldn't let this group of orcs smash this city gate.
After the gate is broken, it can be repaired by the goblin engineers.
But if it's all smashed, there's nothing to fix.
After ordering the soldiers to carry out two more rounds of attacks with rolling logs and rocks.
The trumpet sounded, and the closed gates slowly rose.
Looking at the raised gates, they thought it would be the elephant and the rhinoceros who would lead the way.
But they were wrong.
They were greeted by a dense patch of spears!
At the moment when the city gate opened, sharp spears pierced out directly.
The orcs have a strong physique, but in the end they are still flesh and blood.
Facing the infantry troops, this almost blocked the entire spear array at the entrance to the city gate.
At that time, a group of orcs who rushed to the front decisively paid the price of blood.
Nearly five meters long spear.
Plus the cover of the big shieldmen in the front row.
Leaving the soldiers in a theoretically safe area, they frantically launched a stabbing attack on the orcs trying to storm the city.
Such a dense offensive made the orcs' offensive momentum obviously stagnant.
Even the bearman who was still menacing before.
At this point, they couldn't help but take two steps back.
"What about boars and werewolves?! Don't go up yet!! ”
Faced with the dense spear, Beson shouted loudly.
Beisen's words at this time were obviously not shouting nonsense.
As the vanguard of the orc army, the boar people have shields in their hands.
And werewolves are standard sword and shield soldiers.
In the current situation, it is obviously a relatively reasonable request for them to use their shields to block the spear array on the opposite side.
Werewolf Patriarch Wade's heart, although he was not very happy, he finally went up to it.
Now that the doors of the human camp have been opened.
As long as they break through this line of defense and kill it, they will win half of this battle.
At this time, if he retreats, Bason will definitely not be able to be good afterwards.
So to this point, he can be said to have to go up.
And as soon as the werewolf clan moved, the boar people obviously had to bite the bullet.
The attack and defense of spears and shields were constantly staged inside the city gates.
The troops on both sides, sometimes advancing, sometimes retreating.
For a moment, the situation was at a brief stalemate.
And in the end, it was the werewolf patriarch Wade who broke the deadlock!
He took advantage of the gap created by retreating during an attack and defense.
He suddenly waved the sword on his right hand.
Cut off the head of one of the spears with a single sword!
A spear with a length of five meters is not light.
Naturally, no one would be stupid enough to make it all out of metal.
This not only doubles the weight several times, but also increases the cost considerably.
Therefore, in general, metal casting is used, and only the spearhead part is used.
This was to ensure the lethality of the spear.
The rest of the work is made of wood.
This ensures that the portion size is not overweight and at the same time saves costs.
At that moment just now, Wade undoubtedly avoided the metal part.
A knife slashed at the wooden part of the spear.
The sharp spearhead was cut off by Wade.
Without the spearhead of the spear, the lethality can be said to have gone to ninety percent in an instant.
The other werewolves and boar men saw this and did the same.
Relying on the physical superiority of the orcs, he constantly destroys the weapons in the hands of the spearmen.
This is something that the Terran forces will never be able to do.
If ordinary Terran troops dared to do this.
It is estimated that it will be poked into a sieve in minutes.
It's just that these rough-skinned orcs dare to play like this with the advantage of physical fitness.
After paying the price of some injuries, he directly disintegrated the spear array that blocked the city gate.
Having lost their sharp spearheads, the soldiers clearly did not dare to continue their head-to-head confrontation with the orcs.
A whole force quickly retreated to the rear.
And the orcs who rushed in front rushed in.
Faced with such a situation, Zhao Pan, who had already run to the bottom of the city wall to command the battle.
Resolutely signaled to the soldiers in charge of controlling the gate mechanism to lower the raised gate.
He wanted to use the city gate to directly split the strength of this orc army in two.
Deal with the batch inside the city gate first, and then go and slowly take care of the batch outside the city gate!
Several soldiers who received this order.
Push the trap wheel in your hand, after a few times to no avail.
There was already obvious horror in his expression.
"General! The gate mechanism is broken! ”
