Chapter 120: The Battle of the Siege III
Wu Wei looked down at the city, only to see that the giant apes carrying the big tree on their shoulders were nearly four meters tall, and they were lined up in a line, carrying a trunk of a tree thirty meters long. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info they raised the trunk above their heads, blocking the vital point of the head and face, and the crossbowmen could only attack from the side, waiting to rush under the moat, their number had been reduced by thirty percent, but they still desperately erected the trunk.
When they arrived at the bottom of the moat, the three giant apes at the front end were stacked on top of each other, and the trunks were erected, and the other giant apes either pressed or pushed, like a seesaw, erected the trunks high, and then pushed towards the city wall, although the moat bank was more than ten meters away from the city wall, but the top of the trunk still set up the head of the city.
Wu Wei looked left and right, and the southern city wall that he could see was erected with more than a dozen big trees, and there was also one in his own defense area, and a group of demonized tigers and leopards immediately climbed up along the trunk.
At this time, the blue light above Fuxing City suddenly increased more than ten times, the original soft blue light became extremely dazzling, and the entire light mask was like a huge searchlight, radiating dazzling blue light outward, and the demonized beasts that rushed towards the city head on the trunk of the tree only felt that there was a blue light in front of them, and their eyes were invisible, and they lost their balance and fell into the moat one after another under the continuous shooting of crossbow arrows. Blue light simply radiates outward.
The soldiers in the city were not only unaffected, but also saw everything clearly about the situation below. A few barrels of black oil were poured on the big tree, and immediately a rocket was fired, which instantly ignited a raging fire, and the original attack channels turned into huge torches and became the road of death. The soldiers at the head of the city let the flames ignite, and the burning trees quickly broke off and fell into the moat, floating on the surface of the water as stumps.
Only a few huge beast roars could be heard in the distance, and the demonized beasts faded like a tide, leaving behind corpses and truncated wooden stakes that burned with flames. The light curtain in the air also dimmed, only a little brighter than usual, illuminating the range of the crossbowman's range.
This attack should be a tentative charge, the human camp did not lose anything, but only consumed some arrows, Wu Wei counted it, and just one charge consumed five thousand crossbow arrows. The amount of consumption exceeds that of the city defense army a lot, probably because of the first time to participate in the city defense war, not to master the rhythm of the attack, seeing the demonized beasts rushing up and just want to beat them back, without taking into account the consumption of arrows, often a dozen crossbow arrows are shot at a demonic beast, resulting in a lot of waste, these truths are clear to the soldiers, but it is still inevitable to be nervous, Tonghu and Gail are just a simple reminder, these consciousness need to be sharpened by the battle, in this kind of high-intensity battle, the soldiers will soon grow up.
After only a short interval, the herd's second attack began. This time, the remaining giant apes and grizzly bears rushed towards the city with their arms around the huge rocks, and some stags and wild boars followed closely behind them with rattans wrapped around the boulders.
These demonized beasts advanced quickly, charging down the city without regard for their lives. Under the baptism of rounds of arrows, they fell in pieces, and as soon as the front fell, the back immediately filled in their positions, desperately bringing huge rocks to the city. Soon the outside of the city was full of boulders with a diameter of nearly two meters, and these boulders became a cover for the attacks of demonic beasts, and more boulders were piled up in front of the moat, and they had gradually piled up into a stone wall four meters high.
Despite the cover of the boulder, the casualties of these demonized beasts were still very large, and there were not ten of them that could rush to the city and return, and the catapults of Fuxing City kept throwing barrels filled with black oil into the herd of beasts, and soon the raging fire ignited under the city, and the corpses of the beasts ignited by the fire, a burst of scorching smell filled the air, and the demonized beasts transporting the boulders did not care about the flames burning around them, even if the fur on their bodies was ignited, they still desperately transported the boulders to the city, until they finally fell and burned into a pile of charcoal.
Kutch knew that these ordinary demonized beasts had been used as cannon fodder and completely discarded. Their role was only to lay the foundation for the later attack, and now the city is full of large and small stones, which can be used to block the moat, can be used to pile up under the city to form a passage to the top of the city, and can also be used to throw up the head of the city to attack the defenders. Although the demonized beasts were killed and wounded, the boulders they brought with their lives would become the biggest hidden danger for the defenders.
As the last of the demonized beasts fell to the ground with a wail, the two-hour-long suicidal charge finally stopped. Fuxing City is full of boulders on the east and west sides, and a stone wall is built next to the moat, and the black oil under the city has been burned out, but there is still a little fire, these are the corpses of demonic beasts that have been ignited, and after another half an hour, all the firelight has disappeared, leaving only the beast corpses with bursts of white smoke, they suffered a lot before they died, their limbs were twisted, their mouths were open, and they seemed to be still wailing after death. None of these demonic beasts that had been harassing Fuxing City for a long time were left behind, and they all died under the city.
Wu Wei counted the consumption again, and found that less than half of the 50,000 crossbow arrows remained, and Gail was arranging for someone to take a large number of crossbow arrows from the treasury to make up the number. There were still no casualties in this round of attack, but a large number of arrows were consumed, and after half an hour's rest, everyone's strength was restored. Despite this, the defenders did not dare to relax in the slightest, and everyone knew that the real battle was coming.
Wu Wei held the war horn, he also felt a little nervous, his palms gradually became slippery, and his fingers trembled slightly, since entering the game, Wu Wei has experienced many life and death crises, but this time the feeling is completely different, with a hint of excitement in fear, looking at the shadows swimming in the distance, I just hope that they will rush over sooner and let themselves have a good time.
The siege monster really didn't let Wu Wei wait too long, and soon a few beast roars spread far away, and under the moonlight, I faintly saw a wave coming, and the monsters finally launched a real attack.
The light emitted by the blue light shield of Fuxing City intensified again, illuminating the farther distance, and when they saw the rushing demonic beasts clearly, the defenders of the city actually stirred.
Wu Wei also looked intently, and saw several huge figures in the distance that were particularly conspicuous, and only when he got closer did he see clearly, it was a huge grizzly bear and a black ape, each of them had eight heads, and they were all more than ten meters tall, and their strength was probably not weaker than the white bear they met in the festival battle, the grizzly bear was holding a rock with a diameter of more than five meters, and the black ape was holding a wooden stick five or six meters long in his hand. In addition, there are five giant tigers, they are more than four meters tall at the shoulder, they are more agile, hiding behind the grizzly bear and the black ape, and under the leadership of these twenty-one giant beasts, countless smaller monsters are following, all kinds of fierce beasts, and their size is far larger than the demonized beasts.
