Chapter 165: Fierce Battle

The archers on the towers and walls bent their bows and arrows in one go, and the front of the shafts were tied with strips of cloth soaked in tung oil.

At this point, the strip of cloth tied to the shaft of the arrow had been ignited.

"Rocket ready! ... Put! Shen Fan gave an order, and the arrows dragging the flames shot out one after another, and the target of the burning arrow rain was the area where the flame trap was buried.

Shen Fan's calculation was close to perfect, and the first row of thieves just set off the range of the flame traps, and several flame traps were triggered, revealing a whole pit of tung oil.

"Not good! Evacuate! The leader of the bandit soldiers seemed to realize something, and immediately shouted loudly.

However, it was still too late, and the rain of arrows dragging the flames fell into the flame trap filled with tung oil, and the moment the rocket fell into the flame trap, the fire broke out.

Each Fire Trap is internally connected to other Fire Traps, and whenever one Fire Trap is triggered, the Fire Trap connected to it will trigger.

However, the structure of Shen Fan's flame trap was not mature enough, and this time only two-thirds of the flame traps were triggered, and nearly one-third of the flame traps were dumb.

Although only two-thirds of the flame traps were triggered, the effect and killing range of the flame traps still met Shen Fan's expectations.

After the flame trap was triggered, the flames instantly filled the killing range that Shen Fan had calculated in advance.

"Retreat!" In the sea of fire, the leader of the mountain thieves shouted.

Compared to the sea of fire on the city wall, the atmosphere on the city wall is very harmonious.

Chen Gong stroked his beard and said in a deep voice: "Lord Shen, what a fire attack!" ”

Shen Fan heard Chen Gong's words, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It's just a delaying tactic." ”

Chen Gong smiled and said, "Maybe." ”

Shen Fan always felt that Chen Gong had something to say, but Shen Fan didn't ask.

What Shen Fan said was indeed the truth, looking at the flame trap with great momentum, but the actual killing effect was not great.

It was only the front row of the thieves who were really killed by the flames, and the soldiers in the back successfully left the killing range of the flame trap at a very small price after the flames broke out, and as for the catapult and bed crossbow in the back, they were not in the killing range of the flame trap at all.

Shen Fan also thought about waiting until the catapult and ballista also reached the killing range of the flame trap before activating the flame trap, but after the flame trap was triggered, the tung oil full of pits could not be hidden at all, so Shen Fan had to launch the flame trap now.

"Shoot the arrows!" Shen Fan gave an order in a deep voice, now that the front row of the thieves was surrounded by a sea of fire, of course Shen Fan would not let go of this opportunity to take advantage of his illness to kill him, of course, he ordered the archers to output with all their might.

The soldiers who were surrounded by the sea of fire gathered in the middle of the sea of fire, they were waiting, waiting for the tung oil to burn out, as for breaking through now, that would be a stupid act, and if they rush out now, they will take the initiative to send people to the sea of fire.

At this time, in the middle of the bandit army array.

"Big brother, the kid on the other side is too yin, he actually poured tung oil into the trap, our brothers were burned a lot, and now there are brothers trapped in the sea of fire!" A bald man said angrily.

The bald man who spoke was the second leader of the bandits.

Called the eldest brother by the bald second master, it is the big boss of the bandit, and the difference between the rugged second boss is that the big boss of the bandit is a picture of a scribe, and just looking at the appearance can not associate this middle-aged scribe with the extremely vicious bandit.

The middle-aged scribe-looking master gestured to the second

Don't be noisy, the big boss looks like an old god is there: "The lion fights the rabbit, you must also go all out, this time it is the third child's care, you go and tell the third child, there are definitely other traps behind, let him pay attention." ”

"Let's get this bad breath!" The bald second master argued.

"Of course the evil spirit is out, let's break their territory." The middle-aged scribe-looking boss spoke in a relaxed tone, as if the attack on Daliang Village was something that could be captured.

As for the three masters of the bandits, they are on the battlefield now, and the leader of the bandits who shouted to retreat just now is the three masters of the bandit cottage.

The Three Masters were not in front of the bandit team at the time, so they were now out of range of the flames.

Although the three masters ran out of the range of the flames, they were inevitably injured.

The face of the three masters was blackened, and they were wearing fish scale armor, and due to the good thermal conductivity of the metal, there were also many burns on the three masters.

"If you don't break this city, I swear not to be a person!" The third master said angrily.

Now the bandits trapped in the sea of fire have become live targets for archers, and they can only stay in the center of the sea of fire, and the archers on the city wall are in the center of the sea of fire with all their might.

The archer's full force output is more lethal than the damage dealt by the fire.

Of course, Shen Fan would not let the thieves in the sea of fire leave so easily.

Soon the tung oil burned out, and the fire gradually disappeared.

Ding--The system prompts you to set up a [Fire Trap] to kill 354 bandits.

After the flame trap ended, Shen Fan received a system prompt.

The system only gives the number of dead bandits, not the number of injured bandits, and there are still a few bandits who die in the fire trap, unless they are around the fire trap when the fire trap is triggered, otherwise they will only be burned and will not be burned to death.

Although the flame trap looks quite spectacular, the fire sponge is extended, but the actual lethality is not strong, most of the bandits are only burned, and are not directly burned by the fire trap.

Although the lethality of the flame trap is not large, there are not a few bandits who are burned by the flame trap, but it has the effect of boosting their morale and delaying time.

Although the soldiers were immersed in the joy of victory, Shen Fan knew that the real war had only started now, and although the success of the flame trap had boosted the morale of several rooms, the difference in strength between the two sides existed, and the lethality of the subsequent Zimu Pit Trap and Horse Pit Trap would be greatly reduced after the other party had taken precautions.

Sure enough, just as Shen Fan expected, the bandits soon launched a second wave of offensive.

It's also a lineup of shield soldiers in front, but this time the bandits' advance speed is much slower.

Obviously, they have been on guard against the traps behind, this time the catapult and the bed crossbow are still placed at the back of the team, and the number of bandits defending the catapult and bed crossbow has directly doubled, and it seems that the bandits are more cautious.

Next, if nothing else, it was a fierce battle of attack and defense of the city wall.

Shen Fan looked at Chen Gong, who was looking into the distance with a smile, without the slightest sense of urgency, if he didn't know that this was Chen Gong, Shen Fan would have been able to paddle for this.

At this time, Sun Gan also walked over and came to the city, Sun Qian and Chen Gong couldn't help but look at each other, and then Sun Gan took the lead in saluting: "I don't know who Mr. is?" ”

Chen Gong replied: "I can't talk about Mr., but I am a village man in the mountains and fields, and my surname is Chen Minggong." ”

Yamano Murafu is Chen Gong's word for his words, and he is also a historical strategist, Sun Qianzi

However, it could be seen that Chen Gong was an extraordinary person, and Sun Qian said respectfully: "The surname is Sun Qianzi Gongyou." ”

The two historical strategists, who had not intersected before, met on the wall of this Daliang Village.

The two didn't feel like they were late at meeting, they just politely exchanged a few words and didn't say anything more.

In the interval between the two of them talking, the bandits under the city wall had advanced to a distance of less than a hundred meters from the city wall, and the Zimu pit and the horse trap arranged by Shen Fan did not cause much damage when the bandits were prepared.

The Zimu Pit killed and wounded less than 100 bandits, and the trap was used as a trap for the cavalry, causing no casualties to the bandits at all.

Shen Fan knew that the trap was a sideline, and the role that the trap could play in the future battles would only become smaller and smaller, and he could not rely too much on the trap in the future battles, and constantly improving his strength was the king.

Seeing that the bandits had advanced not far from the city wall, it was impossible for Shen Fan to say that he was not in a hurry.

The bandits' catapults were almost set up, and they were cleverly positioned at the edge of the range of the bows and arrows on the walls.

Once the bandits begin their official siege, catapults and bed crossbows are an absolute nightmare for the soldiers on the ramparts.

Moreover, the huge crossbow arrows fired from the bed crossbow can be pierced on the city wall for the siege soldiers to climb, which is simply a siege weapon.

The bandits beat the drums again, and the battle for the attack and defense of the city wall officially began.

Shen Fan arranged all the 1,004th-order soldiers brought by Chen Gong to the first row of the defensive city wall, and even if there were no casualties in the end, this 1,000-order soldier would be taken back by the system, Shen Fan naturally wanted to let this 1,04th-order soldier play the greatest role, besides, this was a 1,400th-order soldier, and the rank was not low.

In an instant, more than ten ladders were erected on the city wall, and the upper end of the ladder was firmly rooted into the city wall with a barb, and it was difficult for the soldiers on the city wall to push the ladder down.

On the city wall, Shen Fan prepared a stone and a rolling wood in advance, which is a necessary thing to defend the city, the first monster siege because the demon wolf can jump directly on the city, the stone and the rolling wood have not played any role, in this bandit attack of course, the stone and the rolling wood are indispensable.

Soon the first wave of bandit soldiers had already climbed up the ladder, of course, the stones prepared by Shen Fan were not vegetarians, and the stones and rolling logs kept throwing down as if they didn't want money.

The bandit's bed crossbow began to start, and the giant arrows longer than the spear came straight to the city wall, piercing into the bluestone city wall nearly a foot deep, the first bed crossbow was a test shot, and the subsequent bed crossbow was fired like a rain of arrows, and the city wall was like a target inserted into the giant arrows of the bed crossbow.

Shen Fan knew that the bandits' soldiers would be able to step on the giant arrows planted in the city wall and climb the city wall.

Just as Shen Fan expected, the bandits under the city wall poured over like a tide, and in the front row were soldiers with shields, shield-guarding soldiers resisting the rain of arrows overhead, covering the soldiers behind them to climb the city wall through ladders and arrows tied to the city wall.

Although the bandits' attack was fierce, the walls showed no signs of being lost, and no bandits had been able to stay on the walls for more than three seconds.

Shen Fan clenched the talisman in his hand tightly, this was the thunderstorm talisman that Shen Fan opened after opening the Yellow Rank Treasure Chest after the first battle.

Although the thunderstorm spell is just right at this time, but the casting time is really a pit, Shen Fan is now after using it, and the thieves are afraid that they have run out of the range of the thunderstorm during the casting time, Shen Fan does not plan to use the thunderstorm charm now, Shen Fan is waiting for a suitable time to use the thunderstorm charm.
