Chapter 335: The First Time of the Steel Fortress
"Dreyus, sooner or later one day I will kill you with my own hands to avenge Your Majesty." New Sain looked at Dreyus below and yelled angrily.
"New Sain, it's just a defeat, you were lucky enough to get out of the wild forest, but it's not bad to die here." Dreyus said, no one noticing a faint glint in his eyes at the mention of Danas V.
"I'm here today just for Twilight, and if you hand them over happily, I can be merciful enough to spare you, or I'll leave the Prito Chicken Dog." Without a verbal altercation with New Sain, Dreyus stated his purpose.
Before anyone else could speak, Sagrel on the city wall jumped to his feet and said, "I'm sorry, I don't leave any chickens and dogs, if Teglisa comes, we may still be afraid, just you?" Not qualified enough. ”
Everyone has their own self-esteem, even the undead, and being so blatantly looked down upon by Zagrel made Dreyus naturally full of anger.
However, although Dreyus was angry, he did not rush to attack, but retreated to the front of the Scourge Legion, and Twilight and the others on the city wall noticed that hundreds of Abominations pushed out four things with wheels, and then some nimble ghouls began to get busy, and after about ten minutes, four behemoths appeared.
"It's... Is this a trebuchet? When are the undead going to get this thing?" Seeing the behemoth that appeared, Marcus on the city wall was surprised.
Twilight also squinted at the four trebuchets that had been built up, in fact, they were trebuchets, but compared to other trebuchets, these four new trebuchets were more like enlarged versions of the undead corpse car, the steel fortress may not be as high as the walls of the Overwatch Fortress, but it was also twenty meters, and ordinary corpse carrets would inevitably enter the range of the bed crossbow if they wanted to attack the steel fortress, but he didn't expect Dreyus to be able to drum up such a large corpse car.
Just when everyone was surprised that the undead catastrophe could build trebuchets, they saw that the huge swinging arms of the four trebuchets began to tighten, and the next second the swinging arms were leisurely, and the four boulders were thrown towards the steel fortress.
Some of the recruits standing on the city wall couldn't help but panic in the face of the boulder coming from them, but at this time, their lord Twilight stood there motionless, and the soldiers did not dare to move.
Rumble! Rumble!
With two muffled sounds, one of the four boulders flew into the steel fortress, one smashed in front of the steel fortress, and the other two smashed into the walls of the steel fortress.
The boulder smashed into the steel city wall and suddenly jumped out of countless rubble, but looking at the position where the city wall had just been hit, there was only a small impact mark.
After one round of boulders, a second round of boulders is thrown again, and Twilight says to the heralds next to heralds, "Let the soldiers find cover!"
Receiving Twilight's order, the herald hurriedly passed it on, and the intrepid soldiers who received the order hid under the battlements or in the stairs, after all, the oncoming boulder was no joke.
This time after adjustments, all four boulders smashed on the walls of the Steel Fortress, but it still had no effect, but soon the next round of boulders came again.
Looking at the boulders that fell one after another, Alberta walked up to Twilight and said, "My lord, it seems that the Scourge wants to use the boulders to increase the height to reduce the difficulty of attacking the city."
Nodding, Twilight snorted, "Let them smash it, I'm going to see how many rocks they can throw."
After more than twenty rounds of boulders were thrown, the four positions where the stones were often thrown were already piled up more than half the height of the city wall, but at this time, the Scourge Legion threw fewer and fewer stones, as Twilight said, the undead could not have endless stones.
But after throwing the stones, the Scourge began to throw corpses and plague bombs, only to see that patches of corpses full of viruses were thrown into the steel fortress by the four trebuchets like scattered flowers.
Twilight immediately asks Dawn to take the priest and paladin to cleanse them, these abandoned corpses can be more troublesome if there are no clergy like paladins or priests, but they are not much of a threat to Preto.
After several rounds of plague corpses were thrown, Dreyus outside the city drew his bladeless greatsword and swung it forward: "Scourge Legion, attack!"
The undead scourge that was in sight finally began to surge like a tidal wave towards the steel fortress.
Four hundred meters! Three hundred meters!
As the Scourge draws closer, Twilight notices that many of the Skeleton Warriors and Abominations are holding a stone or wood in their hands, is this to continue to increase in height? This kind of practice of building siege heights without fear of casualties is estimated to be only possible with the undead natural disaster!
At this time, the various commanders also boosted the morale of their respective troops.
"Boys, let these damned undead get their due punishment today!" Mog. Brass Hammer roared as he wielded his war hammer.
"All for Twilight-sama, all for Preto! Loktarogar! Alberta roared with the barbarians, and the sound of blood resounded through the walls.
"No victory! I'd rather die!" All the Dreadnought soldiers tapped their shields and cuirasses in response, and the Dreadnought was arguably the most warlike of all the soldiers of Preto.
The momentum of the dreadnought barrier also infected the dreadnought vanguard soldiers next to them, and as soldiers of the same line, they also roared angrily.
At this time, the undead scourge had already entered the 200-meter range of the Steel Fortress, and Alberta shouted: "Fearless marksman prepare, two hundred yards ahead and three rounds of throwing!"
The 12,000 archers of the two armies of the Dreadnought Fortress and the Dreadnought Vanguard opened their bows and arrows, and in the next second, 12,000 arrows flew out of the walls of the steel fortress, and a dense rain of arrows covered the sky.
When the rain of arrows fell, a blank area appeared in the dense undead natural disaster.
Soon after the first round of arrows, the second round of arrows arrived, and when the second round of arrows fell from the dreadnoughts, a dense gunfire rang out, but it was the dwarven musketeers who also shot.
Unlike the Dreadnought, which can use projectiles to increase the firing range, the Dwarven Musketeer can only shoot flat, so the firing range is relatively shorter, but both have their own characteristics.
And at this time, the bed crossbows on the city wall also shot one after another, and their target was very clear, that is, those big skeleton warriors or abominations.
At a distance of two hundred meters, the undead Scourge soon reached the bottom of the fortress, and as Twilight thought, the undead with stones and wood in their hands were indeed going to use their hands to build a passage to the city wall.
Seeing the undead coming to the city, Twilight and the others are paying attention to the lower part of the city, when they hear someone shouting, and Twilight looks up to see the gargoyles hovering in the sky falling.
"Fearless archer, hurry up and look up, target the heavenly gargoyle." The commander of the dreadnought archer hurriedly ordered his soldiers to shoot after seeing the gargoyles in the sky pounce on them, and many of the dwarven musketeers also targeted the gargoyles, which were obviously more threatening than the undead below.
For a while, I saw the gargoyles in the air falling down like dumplings, maybe the dreadnought shooters and dwarven musketeers were not as accurate as the elven marksmen, but they were victorious.
However, despite the many casualties, this time the gargoyle received a death order to attack the soldiers on the city wall, and hand-to-hand combat began.
Gargoyles have a petrified skin trait that makes their skin very hard, and normally two or three soldiers are no match for gargoyles.
But the number of gargoyles was still too small compared to the number of soldiers below, and as soon as they landed on the city walls, they were inevitably besieged.
As Twilight and the others deal with the gargoyles, agile ghouls are thrown up, the work of the Bone Warriors, and some of the hunched, fanged and clawed ghouls fall directly into the Preto soldiers, or jump in on the edge of the wall.
Except for the five thousand fearless soldiers selected from the Simtoo captives who were a little flustered at first, they were calm at other times, and most of them had dealt with the undead scourge.
Soon the undead who came to the city wall were cleaned up by the soldiers of Prito, after all, there were still too few undead who could go up to the city wall, and then the undead who still came up almost all came up and died, and even the gargoyles who pounced down were only a handful of about a hundred and so escaped to the sky.
It was almost impossible for the Undead Scourge to build a ramp to climb the Steel Fortress, as there were only four places where the boulders were piled up, but these four places were the focus of the soldiers in the fortress.
"It's not the way to go." A death knight beside Dreyus looked at the battle situation in front of him and said, looking at the face of this death knight, he was also an old acquaintance of New Sain and others, it was the paladin Capello who was guarding Iroburg and was killed by Dreyus. Dio, and the other Death Knight next to him is naturally Fred.
Dreyus snorted lightly and didn't speak, he didn't know that it was not a way to go on like this, but he didn't have a good strategy now, the hardness of the fortress in front of him had just been tested by a trebuchet, and it was almost impossible to smash it.
"Let's get out of here!" Dreyus thought for a moment and said in a muffled voice.
Suddenly, the black and oppressive undead natural disaster retreated like a tide, leaving only a large number of undead corpses.
As soon as the spirits retreated, many people cheered, and Alberta had all the corpses of the dead on the walls thrown down the city. The commander-in-chief of the Steel Fortress this time is Alberta, Twilight is only in charge of the battle, originally New Sain and Ranks and others are not familiar with Alberta, and they don't trust this ordinary person who has no trace of strength, but now it seems that Alberta's command ability is indeed not weak, at least he can fight the battle in an orderly manner.
