Chapter 965: Dacula's Plan
The logisticians repaired the walls much faster than the civilians who had been recruited, and by the morning, these guys had already closed the gap that had been broken by the magic cannon last night. In addition, under Wei Xu's order, they also stacked sandbags with a height of half a meter on the battlements of the city wall, which I heard were used to defend against the shells of those magic cannons.
The damage of the night was also counted, 21 bed crossbows were destroyed, of which 18 could not be repaired, and 63 foot crossbows were damaged, but fortunately, only 10 were damaged by shells and could not be repaired. The rest is due to attrition due to the operation of high complaints. The number of casualties was around 380, of which 13 were seriously injured and 82 were killed. Most of these people were injured by the parts of the shell bouncing and the crossbow machine that were smashed and ejected, and they were basically half-ruined, and it is estimated that they will spend the rest of their lives in the sanatorium built by the Half Moon Collar for veterans.
Overall, this figure Wei Xu is quite acceptable, except for being overshadowed by those vampires with magic cannons, there are hardly any big casualties, and the few cases are still because the crossbowman was injured by a broken crossbow string.
As for the vampires, the data will not be so easy, although most of the corpses of the dead vampire warriors have been dragged back by them, but according to Wei Xu's previous glance, the loss on Dracula's side must be in four figures.
To be able to get such a record is nothing more than the credit of these instruments forged by the Half Moon Collar, just look at those various types of crossbow arrows and solid iron bullets that cost too much to calculate. Although the consumption of these ammunition would not make Wei Xu feel too distressed, a few more battles like this would be enough to make Half Moon Ling hurt his muscles and bones. At least at the current frequency, the net output of the Half Moon Collar is already in deficit, and if Dacula really has the patience to keep consuming it, the Half Moon Collar will be exhausted by him sooner or later. Of course, Wei Xu dares to guarantee that no matter what means Dakula uses, before the half-moon collar treasury is emptied, it must be him Dakula himself who will be the first to finish!
"How's the Eastern Fortress going?" After arranging the manpower, Wei Xu finally found time to care about the issue of the Eastern Fortress.
"The battle over there is over, and last night the walls of the fortress were taken several times under the leadership of the gargoyle. But fortunately, in the end, he was driven down by the fortress guards. The herald had obviously already informed the other side, and when Wei Xu asked, he answered so fluently.
"Hmm......" Wei Xu nodded slightly, obviously satisfied with the current situation.
"My lord......" Looking at Wei Xu's drowsy appearance, the herald hesitated for a moment and continued: "Also, the main city has already sent people to bring a thousand dwarven guards. They told me to report to my lord that those dwarven centurions couldn't enter the teleportation channel, and that's all we could support at the moment. ”
"Have the dwarven guards arrived?" Wei Xu's half-open and half-closed eyes opened suddenly, and his spirit was obviously invigorated, although the intensity of the battle last night was not very large, but Wei Xu was still afraid that the cat man would have any plans, so the more chips he held in his hand now, the more confident he became.
"Let people go and place these dwarf guards......" Wei Xu said this, and suddenly hesitated for a moment to change his words: "No, let people place these dwarf guards near the teleportation passage, depending on the situation!" ”
Wei Xu now knew that Dacula had a group of demon warriors in his hands who had not yet made a move, and he was still not sure where that cat man's target was. In the final analysis, it is still Dacula's hand that has a sense of sound. However, Wei Xu still doesn't know which side is east and which side is west. This is also the reason why Wei Xu resolutely refused to support manpower in the face of the request for help from the eastern fortress. What if my side is diverted away from the mountain by that cat man? Then it's too late to regret it!
The wait under the war was long but short, Wei Xu even felt that it was early morning a second ago, but by the time he closed his eyes, the sky had already darkened. The vampires still carried on the old traditions, and they still liked to fight at night. After all, after night, the vampire's advantages can be maximized.
"Boom!" It's an old-fashioned sneak attack again, but this kind of sneak attack at night, and it is also a long-distance artillery bombardment, which makes the half-moon leader very helpless. They can't spot the enemy in the first place, they don't have the night vision of vampires, so they can only be beaten passively and then wait for an opportunity to fight back.
Fortunately, this time the situation was not as dangerous as the night before, and the soldiers had already prepared in their hearts, and the sandbags on the city walls really played a role to a certain extent. The shells that bombarded the sandbags on the walls didn't bounce around and hurt people like they had done before, and most of the shells that landed on the sandbags only rolled backwards with a pop.
"Shoot back!"
This time, without Wilcas's emphasis, the crossbowmen knew how to aim at those magic cannons and slam them out. This kind of battle can't be carried out at all without first making those magic cannons temporarily useless.
With their first experience, the crossbowmen's tactics improved significantly. The vampires' newly-repaired magic gun carriage was once again pierced by the bed crossbow, and this time, the magic cannon was struck by only one round of shells.
Vampire Position.
"Your Excellency...... When are we going to get those guys on? A vampire count watched the undead warriors he had just made during the day being beaten into a sieve and crushed into flesh, and finally asked Dacula on the side.
Dacula glanced at him lightly, and this glance directly caused the vampire count to sweat like a pulp.
Fortunately, Dacula didn't really want to dwell on this issue with him at this time, he took a look at the vampire count and then took his gaze back, completely ignoring the previous vampire count's question and ordered: "I have sent demon warriors to support the war in the Eastern Fortress, tonight we will attract all the attention of the Half Moon Leader here, so that they have no time to take care of the Eastern Fortress!" ”
"Yes, my lord!" After the few vampire nobles below answered, they continued out of the tent.
……
Ivastade.
The vampires are attacking much more aggressively tonight than before. Relying on the consumption of those undead warriors, in just a few waves, these guys approached the city wall, and more than a dozen ladders had been successfully erected.
"Tell me to go down and stop the enemy with all magic guns!" Wilcas looked at the vampire warriors behind him, and finally gave the order.
The power of the magic gun is much greater than that of the bow and arrow, and as long as there are enough soul stones, those warriors can use them an infinite number of times. The reason why I didn't use it before was largely because the consumption of the magic gun was too amazing. Unless it was a last resort, Wilcas didn't want to use it. Using this stuff is almost like burning money......
