Chapter 190: Catapult
The battle began as soon as the skeleton army was lined up, and the skeletons walked methodically towards the city wall, facing the rain of arrows in the sky, just shielding their heads with bone shields, and letting the arrows fall as if they didn't care about the rest of their bodies, and those arrows landed on their unconcealed bones, only some small bones could burst out, and few arrows could be shot into the bones. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Many of the generals who were observing in the city had their faces discolored, no one expected that the bones of these skeletons were so hard, and they didn't see a few of those skeleton troops fall under the rain of arrows in the hundreds of meters below the city wall! How can this be fought?
On the left side of the city wall, the obvious advance speed of the skeleton army was contained, and at the same distance of a few hundred meters, hundreds of skeletons fell, and then with an order to change the equipment to increase the wounded, another rain of arrows was issued, this time more fell, but only fell, and few died directly.
But on the left side of the city wall, the rain of arrows in the sky just didn't stop, and soon the open space under the city was full of arrows, and even the latter of the two arrows actually shot into the tail of the previous one, which was very accurate.
Those skeleton soldiers gathered in several places at this time, and covered the bone shield in their hands tightly, and the bone shield was made of bones left by some monsters, extremely tough, and some arrows fell on it, and they were bounced down by the tenacity of the shield, and few of them could shoot into the shield.
At this time, under the city gates on the left and right, two strange circles were formed, one side kept raining arrows on the city, and the skeleton army under the city shrank into several places, not daring to move a little.
The skeleton army in another place has been close to the city wall, and several people have set up a human ladder to climb up, because this boulder city has not been in battle for a long time, all kinds of facilities in the city are not well prepared, and there is no preparation for any fire oil, rolling wood and thunder stones, etc., so they can only stretch out their spears to pick off the skeletons on the nearby wall. And these skeletons are even more unprepared, they just received an order to attack the city wall in front of them, so just move forward, kill people when they encounter people, and climb the wall when they encounter a wall, fortunately, they still know how to cooperate with each other, otherwise, I really don't know what they will do.
That's it, I was still climbed up the wall by a few skeletons, but under the chaos of the people, no matter how hard the bones were, they couldn't do it, and in the end they were almost cut into pieces of bone sticks, so I gave up. Fortunately, at this time, the three thousand people sent by the princesses quickly filled the ground under the city on the right with arrows, and the skeleton army on the right was also temporarily blocked from advancing.
Thus, a mythical story that has been passed down for hundreds of years was born. According to the testimony of more than a million soldiers and civilians present at the time, they witnessed the miracle happening. A group of nearly 9,000 human mother warriors stood in place, and they didn't see an arrow beside them, but as soon as they pulled their bows and made a gesture, an arrow would automatically appear on the bowstring, and after they shot out, it turned into a rain of arrows, shooting downwards until the skeletons retreated, and this one was withdrawn after an hour!
And at the beginning of their own group of skeleton army, at the last moment has basically been buried by the arrows, until in the middle of the night, only dare to drill out and run back to their own troops, under the city wall of the day, accumulated tens of billions of arrows, and so on after the skeletons retreated, the soldiers and civilians in the city happily collected a lot of arrows, ready to be used to defend the city later, but a miraculous thing happened, in the early morning of the next day, those put away and the arrows piled up outside the city disappeared, and there was no trace at all.
The first frontal battle between the Black Mountain Star and the Necromantic Realm began, and it ended without any major losses on both sides, although the defenders in the city repelled the skeleton legion outside the city, but they were not very happy, because they did not kill hundreds of skeletons in total, but they were just relishing the new miracle on their side, so on the same day, those dignitaries and talented beauties of the major clans stepped through the threshold of several princesses, and even many people asked for help, and they were proud to be able to marry several princesses.
The three princesses of the Montenegrin clan are not idle now, the main reason is that before the end of the war, seeing that everyone was full of admiration and amazement for Jianwei and Jianlan, full of jealousy, they also let their troops perform the skills of the rain of arrows.
Unlike the jubilation in the Boulder City, the skeleton army of Cambu outside the city is retreating not far from the city to repair, for today's hundreds of casualties, Cambu didn't take it to heart, but he underestimated this kind of war situation, in the necromancy before, he had never encountered such a tall city wall, even in the lord's mansion, it was only seven or eight meters, and the others were at most as tall as two people, and the nimble ones had crossed over a few times, and everywhere like here was as high as more than ten meters.
Besides, in the necromantic realm, the two armies are basically fighting face-to-face, until one side withdraws or is completely wiped out, where has I seen this kind of closed city? With Kambu's cleverness, he didn't know how to continue the fight tomorrow, and when he thought of the rain of arrows he saw today, his whole body tightened, and the little muscles that he had finally had seemed to have goosebumps.
Kambu didn't have the idea of building a ladder in his mind, the key was that he hadn't seen it, so he couldn't think of it, but after he thought hard for half the night, he suddenly thought of a way that was not a way, that is, to bypass this city gate, and take advantage of the night to sneak attack the other city gates, and think of the large catapults he had seen in the war before, he couldn't help but get excited, that night, he led the Chinese army back to the Wushi village and town, and collected materials door to door, three days later, he really let him get more than 70 catapults, Although each one is twisted and crooked, it can barely be used.
On the same day, he led the army back at night, and arrived at the city gate in the other direction in the middle of the night the next day, and the Chinese army commanding himself began to sneak towards the city gate, dozens of catapults were also placed in place, each catapult accounted for six or seven skeletons, and he had a number of the hardness of the skeletons of his own skeletons, as long as he didn't fall into the hard stone pile, he would be fine, and his arms and legs would be broken in the sky, but with the ferocity of these skeletons, only one mouth could be left to attack.
The skeletons that were approaching were soon discovered, and the city walls were soon red by torches, and the catapults began to launch after a sound on the city wall, only to hear Rin's sound, and a cart of skeletons was launched, and then the skeletons put the man's shot in the right place, and a few skeletons stood on it, and the skeletons moved to the designated position again, and then let go, and a cart of skeletons was sent out again, and the whole process was only four minutes.
At this time, there was already chaos in this city gate, and those princess troops mainly defended the position of the original city gate, and the defense here was naturally weak, and when they heard this chaos, they could only dispatch troops now, although they heard the dignified voice over their heads, and thought that the enemy had projected some sharp weapon, and no one was injured when they saw it, and they didn't care for a while, until one shouted in horror:
"Oh no, those who are considering going to town!!" (To be continued.) )
