Chapter 203: Combination of Land and Air
"What's that?" All the people in the city were stunned.
Although they had long known that Xiao Yu had a lot of strange troops, they never expected that there would be such a class.
What is this big stone man? Giant? Could it be the legendary extinct giant?
Who is this Xiao Yu? How come there are all kinds of races? Orcs, elves, dwarves, and now giants? Who can withstand such a force.
They were completely dumbfounded for a while, and at first they had thought of a lot of strategic deployments and battle plans, but at this moment, in the face of this powerful mountain giant, they felt that they were all useless.
This powerful giant, it seemed too strong, and it made them feel powerless.
If it's just one or two, that's it, they might still be able to kill these stone men, but now there are hundreds of stone giants, how can they fight?
For a while, everyone on their side, from soldiers to generals, was stunned.
And Xiao Yu slowly drove the army to a place five hundred meters in front of the city and stood still, adjusted the formation, and prepared to attack.
To attack the city, it is necessary to seize the city in one go, otherwise, once a long-term war of attrition is formed, it will inevitably be unfavorable to the besieging side.
Xiao Yu naturally understands this truth, so he has already made a plan to attack.
Looking at the tall city wall, Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, and after a pause, he waved his hand and ordered an attack. So, the hundred mighty mountain giants took heavy steps and moved in a row towards the city wall.
Their tall bodies completely blocked the other troops behind, with the Terran infantry and orc infantry following closely behind, and the other troops even behind.
Boom......
The sound of the giant's footsteps on the ground was like a muffled thunderbolt rolling through, and the soldiers felt their hearts beat out one by one.
They are not afraid of fighting, however, there is no way for them not to be afraid of such a battle.
They were ready to fight against the orc soldiers, and they also vowed to kill some orcs to show their achievements, but they didn't expect that the first thing they faced was not the orc soldiers, but the mountain giants.
In fact, they were still wrong, and the first thing they faced was not the mountain giants. Just as they were all nervously looking at the mountain giants and preparing to attack with their ballistas, suddenly a black and oppressive dark cloud moved in the sky, covering the sky.
"What's going on? How can there be dark clouds? All the people at the head of the city were stunned, and when they looked up, their eyes were suddenly wider than that of oxen, and their jaws almost fell to the ground.
"That'...... What is that? ”
First, the mountain giants six or seven meters tall had already taken a blow to their hearts, and now, there were so many strange flying demonic beasts flying in the sky, and they felt that their will was about to collapse.
It's not that they're not brave enough, it's that the other party is too unbelievable to them.
What kind of troops are these?
If prepared, they might be able to shoot some crossbow bolts that can inflict no damage on Batriders and Mountain Giants.
Because, the mysterious force has provided them with hundreds of large ballistas and thousands of medium and small ballistas, and the Batrider does not fly high enough to escape the range of heavy ballistas, and the rock skin of the mountain giants cannot completely withstand the damage of heavy ballistas.
With such a large number of ballistas combined, if Xiao Yu's troops were just simple orc troops and human troops forcibly attacking the city, they would inevitably suffer a devastating blow.
With those magicians, the three thousand orcs would definitely not be able to attack the city and be killed. It's just that Karui didn't expect that the battle would unfold in such a way.
Therefore, they were all stunned at this time, and the commander forgot to give the order, not knowing whether to attack these mountain giants or these batriders first.
And the speed of the Batrider's flight is extremely fast, just in the blink of an eye, the dense bats have already flown to the top of the city, one swoop down, and throw the incendiary bombs and unstable compounds in their hands.
Rumble...... Rumble......
The flames suddenly engulfed the city, countless explosions sounded, and the people in the city didn't know how to react, so they were blown up and ran around, not knowing how to resist at all.
This kind of attack, they have never seen or heard of, and they simply don't know how to deal with it.
In order to reduce casualties and increase the power of the bombardment, Xiao Yu also deliberately armed these Batriders with some magic iron bombs. The power of a magic iron bomb is several times more powerful than that of an unstable compound, and if it is thrown down at once, the stone chips will be blown up directly, and people who are close can basically be killed directly.
In the face of this kind of covering bombing, no one has the will to resist at all. When the attack is only launched at a certain point, they still have room to shrink, they have a chance to rest, and then counterattack, but when the attack is covered as a whole, then no one will know what to do.
Especially, at this time, the mountain giants have already reached the front of the city.
Roar......
The mountain giants erupted into bursts of roars, slamming their fists at the head of the city, although the head of the city was strong, but it was smashed like this, and the stones were flying, and those soldiers had no intention of resisting at all.
The combination of land and air is the power of the combination of land and air. Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes, with a hint of smugness on his face. The combination of land and air tactics, even in World War II, was first used by the German army. Although the air force has long been established, other countries have not organically integrated the ground and air forces, so it is completely impossible to confront Germany's advanced tactical thinking.
The blows from top to bottom make the other party look forward and backward, and they don't know where to resist at all, causing huge chaos and producing powerful damage.
Boom......
The bombardment continued, and although the soldiers had left the city and were scurrying around, they could not escape the bombardment of the batriders, and the flames rose everywhere, and there was a sea of fire everywhere, and they had completely lost contact with the commander, and they did not know how to fight, so the troops retreated.
Bang bang bang......
The big fist of the tall mountain giant continued to bombard the city gate, although the city gate was very strong, but under the continuous bombardment of the mountain giant, it was also difficult to resist, and finally shattered with a bang.
The orc infantry behind let out a roar of rage and rushed in with the huge battle axes in their hands.
It was already chaotic, and the orc infantry attacked again, and these soldiers were completely demoralized. Originally, their initial tactics were how to hold the city walls and how to condescendingly block the orcs from attacking the city.
But now, in less than a minute, the head of the city had fallen, the gates had been breached, and they were no longer able to organize an effective blockade.
Defeat is like a mountain, and the word is applicable everywhere. Once a soldier is defeated, he will immediately retreat, and defeat is a plague that spreads.
When this plague spreads to every soldier, then there will be no suspense in this battle.
Gisco City has four city walls, Xiao Yu is only attacking from one side now, and although the other city walls are not affected by the battle at this time, they have seen the scene of flames rushing to the sky here, and seeing countless flying demonic beasts in the sky throwing countless fireballs, they have lost their fighting spirit one by one.
In particular, the mountain giants kept wandering along the city wall, constantly bombarding the city wall, grabbing the smashed stones in their hands, and smashing these soldiers, so that these soldiers completely lost the will to resist.
Their ballista can inflict damage on the mountain giants, but in the face of such unknowns, under this atmosphere of defeat and fear, they have completely forgotten how to fight back.
They had been trained to use these heavy ballistas to deal with the orcs, but no one had ever told them how to deal with the mountain giants.
Some soldiers also boldly tried to fire some crossbow arrows to shoot at the mountain giants, but in their panic, the shot was obviously off, although it caused some damage to the mountain giants, but the angry mountain giants were even more terrifying, jumped up high, and smashed these ballistas with their fists.
Their fists are the size of a grinding disc, and once they are smashed down, no one can stop them.
So, everyone thought it would be a bitter war, but in just a few minutes, it was over.
