Chapter 3 White 35 Offensive and Defensive Battle, Defeated in the First Battle?
The sky was bright, the east was white, the morning rain and dew wet the leaves, a new day came, Gypsyne opened the city gate as usual, and the crowds came in and out one after another, but everyone had a slightly urgent look on their faces, everyone knew that Jacob, who was close to the endless forest in the distance, was occupied by a group of terrible monsters, and the fugitives from there said that those monsters were extremely ferocious, and Jacob's defenders were wiped out by the monsters without holding on for half a day, it was simply terrible, and I don't know if they would come to Gypsyinγ
The lord of the city has issued a warrant for first-level alert, the number of soldiers on the city has tripled compared to usual, all kinds of cold and powerful defensive weapons are turned on around the clock, and every once in a while, a group of powerful knights riding flying magical beasts will fly out of the city to patrol around, closely monitoring the wind and grass around Gypsyin.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous sound in the wilderness. Immediately afterward, several embarrassed figures in the sky appeared in front of Gypsyne, and before they could get closer, they shouted warning to the people on the city wall.
The hordes of monsters are coming.
There was chaos on and under the gates of Gypsyne, and the nervous soldiers began to check the various defensive equipment they were responsible for in order to deal with the next big battle, while the chaotic civilians gradually poured into Gypsien under the drive of the soldiers who maintained order.
A moment later, a black oppression floated in the distance towards the outside of Gypsyne.
In the blink of an eye, the Zerg that covered the sky swept over the wasteland like a tide, and the Zerg army was densely packed, and the number made people feel desperate, causing a black cloud to overwhelm the city, making every Gypsy feel extremely depressed in their hearts.
The gates of Gypsyne were all sealed, and all the soldiers who were on leave had canceled their vacations, and one by one the soldiers who had returned to the city walls from all corners of the city after receiving the order, after a brief inventory of their respective commanders, they picked up their weapons and climbed to the top of the city with a resolute look on their faces.
While the defenders at the head of the city were busy, the city lord's most favored first knight, Samda, led a group of people to the city wall.
The city guard who heard the news ran over with a sweat on his head, and he didn't dare to snub the knight who was the most trusted and powerful knight lord of the city lord.
"Okay, we have our mission, you go about your business, leave us alone. β
Samda nodded, ignoring the city guards, and led a group of hundreds of tightly wrapped men behind him past the city guards, and walked to the city wall to stare at the black frenzy in the distant sky.
"It was once the largest city south of Klot, and it was really generous!"
Through the vision provided by the Flying Fortress Worm, Chen Jin, who was dozens of miles away from Gypsyin, saw several giant defensive weapons on the city wall that could not be seen at a glance, and these war weapons knew from their appearance that their lethality must be extremely terrifying. There are also extremely rare railguns and crossbows in Jacob, and there are one at the head of this Gypsyne city almost every ten meters, and this kind of defensive weapon is obviously only a second-rate defensive weapon, and there are many of them.
As one of the most economically developed southern cities, Gypsyne is not a small place like Jacob, and the abundant financial resources accumulated over the years have completely built it into an impregnable fortress.
Offensive!!
The Zerg army came to the outside of Gypsyn City and paused for a moment, and then launched an attack on Chen Jin under his order.
As the first echelon, Chen Jin invested 300,000 speedworms and 15,000 stinging snakes at one time, and 20,000 flying dragons in the air plus countless self-exploding Poria cocos as air strike troops.
"Railgun ready!"
The guards of all ranks, who were holding loudspeakers on the city walls, immediately shouted the order to prepare after gesturing to the artillery of the railgun to visually measure the distance.
"Put!!"
As the galloping army of swift worms approached and crossed the range at a rapid pace, the order to fire sounded at the top of the city at about the same time.
Boom! Boom!
Hundreds of dazzling pillars of white light shot out from the city, instantly submerged into the oncoming swarm of swift insects, and in an instant, there were huge deep pits on the wasteland, each with an area of more than a dozen square meters, as long as all the velocrats in the area covered by the shelling were vaporized, not even a single residue remained.
A salvo of these railguns with the longest range will at least reimburse Chen Jin for thousands of speedworms, which is worthy of being a defensive weapon suitable for large-scale legion operations, with a long range and enough damage, except for a little slow reloading, it is an absolute top-level war machine.
After a round of artillery bombardment, the Zerg Legion was already extremely close to the city wall, and the energy projectile attack of the Wyvern could already reach the city wall.
At this time, the giant equipment placed behind the railgun also began to wield, this is a projectile that can project flame stone projectiles, which can launch a stone projectile in several tons at a distance of hundreds of meters, this stone bullet has the fire and ice elemental power infused by alchemists and magic warriors inside, and the moment the stone bullet lands, the delicate balance of ice and fire inside the stone bullet will be broken due to vibration, and then produce a strong explosion, thereby killing and injuring the enemy in a large area.
The catapult, like the railgun, could only be fired once at the incredible speed of the Zerg army, and even then, the wasteland outside the city was littered with a sea of sparks and ice fragments caused by the fire and ice bombs, as well as swift worms torn to pieces by the blast.
In the air, a group of flying dragons flew close to the city, and a round energy projectile was shot from their mouths, which rained down on the heads of the soldiers defending the city, and the soldiers were constantly hit and then either their bodies burst and blood flowed all over the ground, or they were blown off a limb and carried down the city, and the number of casualties rose rapidly.
"Armor-piercing repeater fire!!"
A cluster of heavy arrows with thick arms and more than a person long were shot into the sky by giant repeaters, these heavy arrows alone were a foot in the arrows, and the sharp three-edged arrows and the terrifying boost of the repeaters easily broke through the pretty good biological armor on the flying dragon, even if the vitality of the Zerg was extremely tenacious, but a huge flying dragon would often lose its mobility and vitality when hit by more than a dozen of these heavy arrows, and fall down from mid-air.
Under the sniping of countless crossbows and heavy arrows, the flying dragon and the defenders on the city also suffered heavy losses, and the dumplings that seemed to be in the pot died in the hands of this anti-aircraft weapon.
"All the single-shot giant ballistas are pressed against the wall stacks, adjust the angle, I want to let these monsters know that they know that they are powerful, and a group of beast bed bugs still want to come to Gypsy to spread wild, it's just looking for death!"
A single shot is much faster than an armor-piercing burst to reload, and the arrows are much larger, and the single shot is more destructive, and it is generally a large siege target responsible for defending the ground.
Under the operation of the human defenders, tens of thousands of giant crossbows have shot out thick giant arrows, these giant arrows are like those heavy crossbow arrows that hit the flying dragon, easily cutting and tearing the bodies of countless rapid insects, the armor of the rapid insects is as hard as steel is thicker than that of the flying dragon, but under these giant arrows it is no different from paper paste.
"Such a powerful long-range defensive firepower, this city deserves to be one of the largest cities in the south, and Jacob's city defense is like child's play compared to it. β
Chen Jin, who stopped dozens of miles away, closed his eyes, and used the vision of the fortress worm to watch the offensive and defensive battle between the Zerg and the Gypsyne defenders throughout the whole process, and couldn't help but admire when he saw the fierceness.
"Your Majesty the Insect Emperor, Gypsyne has a history of hundreds of years, and it was still the country of a certain dynasty, and its prosperity is naturally not comparable to those small towns, and for some reason, the feudal nobles stationed here in the past generations will vigorously develop the military strength of the city, and the funds invested in the city's defense system are even larger, so it is not surprising that Gypsyne has this kind of performance. β
There was a short old man standing next to him who bent down and said respectfully, this old man was obviously dressed as a human nobleman, and he actually appeared beside Chen Jin, needless to say that it must be some nobleman who secretly contacted Chen Jin.
"It seems that the first wave of attacks has been dismantled, and the city of Gypsy must be rejoicing. But then, it's time for the show. The corners of Chen Jin's mouth hooked, and the defenders of Gypsyne in his field of vision all cheered when they saw the remnants of the flying dragon fleeing into the wilderness, and all the defenders of the city raised their hands to celebrate, beating their weapons to vent to their heart's content.
After 300,000 velocrats were baptized in turn under artillery fire and giant arrows, about 200,000 approached the city wall and began to climb, but then the city head threw down various defensive weapons and killed most of these insects, and by the time the velocrats climbed to the city, the number of velocrats was less than one-fifth.
Next, hundreds of thousands of defenders at the head of the city and the speedworms rushing to the city launched a fierce battle of life and death, although the speedworm claws were sharp, the carapace was hard, fast, and the vitality was extremely tenacious, but under the full force of the elite defenders of Gypsion, who were more than ten times more numerous than these tens of thousands of speedworms, the whole army was finally annihilated.
And those flying dragons after paying more than 10,000 losses, received Chen Jin's order to turn around and retreat, as for the self-detonation Poria has long been basically exhausted, but unfortunately this time this kind of extremely lethal cannon fodder did not play a decisive role, ninety percent of them were fired by various arrows before they had time to fly close to the city, although the rest also caused a lot of casualties to the defenders, but it had nothing to do with the overall situation.
"What a horrible horde of monsters. β
Cutting off the head of a swift insect with a sword, the Samuda Knight looked at the corpse of the insect that was still twitching at his feet, and had a comprehensive understanding of the vitality of this magical beast.
"Aside from the quantity, it's not a big deal. β
Behind them, the mysterious big men who had been standing like statues and wrapped in their bodies couldn't help but speak after hearing Samuda talk to himself.
Do you think that everyone is like a monster like you? Besides, you are strong, but after all, the number is only so small, and the cost is still outrageously high, no wonder the output has not been able to rise.
As an absolute confidant of the city lord, Samda knew some things that others didn't know, and he had already vaguely guessed the roots of these people behind him.
"Although they are slightly inferior to the mid-level warriors who have mastered the battle qi, their numbers and fierce character are definitely not easy to deal with. β
Samda picked up a piece of broken sword and looked at the metal stubble on it, wondering if it was bitten by the sharp mouthparts of the swift worm or cut by its claws.
"Hmph, no matter how many there are, not all of them will be wiped out by us. β
"This should not be their main force, the elves and orcs in the intelligence did not appear, it is likely that this is just a forward force used for testing. β
The other party's arrogance Samda did not take it to heart, and strolled to the corpse of a flying dragon that landed at the head of the city and began to observe carefully.
"The Sebil army hasn't arrived yet, the opponent hasn't used all his strength, so why don't we use our hole cards. Even if the main force of these demonic beasts comes, as long as Gypsyne insists on until the Sebil legion arrives, then under the attack of the defenders and the Sebil legion, this demonic beast group will inevitably be defeated and completely wiped out. β
"I hope so. β
Samda waved his hand, no longer dwelling on the issue with the people behind him.
