Chapter 325: Siege (2)
The next day, after a night's rest, the fighters also had a short maintenance of various machinery. Our warriors sat down again in their positions from yesterday and prepared to watch the blockbuster, while the trebuchets were slowly preparing.
Of course, if our warriors were rested yesterday, and the opposing warriors were probably rested, then the magicians on both sides of us were definitely busy all night last night.
After nightfall, the magic thrown by our elven mage bombarded the defensive magic array without stopping.
Anyway, our purpose is not to attack the city, anyway, the enemy's every move is under our all-round surveillance, in this case, I simply divided the elven mages into six groups, except for those who were kept as reserves, all of them took turns to harass the enemy.
"Listen to me, if anyone dares to be lazy, I will throw her to your queen, as for what will happen, I don't think I need to say more!" That's what I said to the elf girls who were unleashing their magic last night.
As a result, what I said instantly had an effect on these elf girls, but what he meowed was actually the opposite effect, with the help of the magic core, do you dare to throw out the current in a little weak? Do you dare to blow out the fireball you throw?
"You all listen to me, the next batch of breeding places is limited, and only those who perform well may qualify!" At this moment, I decided to let go.
I always felt as if something was completely shattered after I said this.
In an instant, the originally weak elf girls were like being beaten with chicken blood, and all kinds of powerful high-level magic were released in turn with the help of the magic core. The defensive magic array above Isenger, which was already as thin as an eggshell, began to become crumbling, and it was estimated that it could be directly blasted with more effort.
At this moment, I suddenly felt that it was far more terrifying than I imagined to be able to train these elf girls to be such elf queens!
If it weren't for the fact that the magician who was responsible for maintaining the defensive magic array on the other side suddenly began to increase his strength, if it weren't for West's urgent call to stop in the resentful eyes of the elven girls, maybe we would have broken through the opponent's city defense magic array last night.
So at the beginning of the siege operation the next day, many elf girls on our side looked at the magic array on the opposite side like jealous women, and the magic elements in their hands had already been gathered, but no one dared to use more than the third order of magic to bombard the opponent's magic array.
West said that if anyone dares to use magic above the third order, they should wait for the aphrodisiac to be poured into the room full of elf girls.
Well. Vester's festival also broke through new lows. Broken by our success.
Wait, what's going on with this fourth-order magic? At least half of the people flying in the sky are fourth-order magic, what's going on?
Looking at the various powerful magic flying in the sky, I glanced at the elven mage behind me and looked at the sky speechlessly.
Is it blatant disobedience? Or have the spirits of Lily, these elf girls who can't find males have begun to awaken?
Ma Ma, the elves are terrible. I'm going home!
Of course. Although the blatant disobedience of the elves made West crook his nose in anger. However, the siege that had been arranged long ago was carried out in an orderly manner under the command of officers at all levels who had listened to all the steps last night.
In addition to the old magic and boulders, today's siege protagonist has one more one. That is the bed crossbow unit that appeared in the first anti-encirclement war.
Two hundred bed crossbows lined up to shoot 10,000 heavy crossbow arrows at a time is refreshing, but the pressure on logistics is enormous.
In order to prepare these crossbow arrows, many dwarven warriors in our coalition army laid down their weapons and picked up tools to make crossbow arrows yesterday, which is why we didn't use them yesterday.
After the first round of greetings from the trebuchet, Isengard's defensive magic array simply ignored the physical attack, and immediately after, our bed crossbow troops struck.
The rain of arrows formed by 10,000 crossbow arrows firing at the same time can be said to cover the sky and the sun, and ordinary wooden shields cannot stop heavy crossbow arrows at all. Yesterday it was crushed by boulders, and today the logistics passage, which was temporarily erected with wooden baffles, was devastated by a rain of arrows.
Anyway, the front-line soldiers who were squatting in the cave of the soldiers had not received the hot food from the back for a day, and had already begun to eat dry food to survive. Just a few streets away, there was no soldier from the logistics department who dared to brave the rain of arrows to deliver any logistical supplies to the front line.
Of course, after a whole day of fighting, the enemy did not fail to counterattack.
The other party's originally short-staffed mage troops actually sent a few mages over, and launched a sneak attack on our soldiers who were lined up on the front line without a magic barrier from a distance of several kilometers.
It's just that all of us at the front of the queue are magic troops.
Investing heavily in power armor not only has excellent physical defense, but also no weaker defense against magic.
When these low-level magic bombarded and were resisted by these magic forces who couldn't dodge, there was no after.
In my binoculars, these magicians are hiding their faces and crying.
If magic doesn't work, let's get on the war machine.
As the capital of the Shadow Empire, Isengar has a large number of defensive machines, and they have a wide variety of them.
But but, however, most of these guys don't have as much range as our siege machines.
A limited number of long-range attack machines were also shot off by me.
Well, at present, the range of the bow and arrow in my hand cannot reach so far, and if you bring magic, you will be blocked by the magic barrier, in this case, it is impossible to snipe the enemy from a long distance.
But we have a bed crossbow.
Removing the bow arm from the bed crossbow and pulling the bowstring with the foot bow arm and shooting the crossbow arrow about the same length as mine out of the bow is no pressure on my current attributes.
As for the issue of hits, my "Ranged Tactical Mastery" skill is full.
It's just that, West, don't you dare to look at this side so shyly!
Let's not say that I wear safety pants and absolutely don't distribute benefits, you look at me with such a color of Mimi's eyes, believe it or not, I shake my hand and shoot the crossbow arrow directly at 90 degrees!
When the few ultra-long-range attack machines on the other side were knocked out by me, it was a farce in the aftermath. The stones thrown by the defensive machinery that had been erected by the opponent outside our range and the feathered arrows were all weakly landed not far in front of us. The war machines that arrived and erected were all marked by our spy satellites, and before they could be erected, they were smashed into a pile of garbage by a boulder that fell from the sky.
Our dwarven warriors even had time to run up and bring back all the crossbow arrows and boulders scattered on the ground in the interval between the opponent's reloads, and after a little rectification, they were loaded into our siege machine and thrown back again.
It was not until the last that the defenders of Isengard, provoked by our actions, were forced by the Warlords to rush out more than 10,000 soldiers and launch a direct counterattack against us.
It's a pity that under the triple blow of the magic warrior's hand-held electromagnetic cannon, the rubble trebuchet replaced by the gravel, and the crossbow arrow, this unit was only able to leave the distance of less than 500 meters from Isengard, and was completely covered by all kinds of attacks. Except for a small number of troops who were deliberately let go, the rest of the guys didn't even need to collect the corpses.
The rubble heaps that the trebuchets threw out like a hill are natural graves!
After this blow, Issinger's defenders did not dare to show up again, and all of them cowered in the cave and munched on dry food and lived on their fingers. Except for the unlucky ones who draw lots from time to time to decide who will come out to see what we're doing.
Of course, these guys usually don't make it back alive, because the boring elf girls are counting their fingers! If there is an enemy, it is really fast, and if you are slow, you can only whip the corpse!
The days passed like this, except for the opponent's defensive magic array that we intentionally or unintentionally released under the water, which never broke through, the city near the city wall has been completely flattened by our catapult machine crossbow.
From time to time, the entrance to the cave was flooded with countless boulders, and the soldiers inside could no longer come out. Coupled with the flying crossbow arrows covering the shooting, the logistics materials behind it were never able to be supplied to the front line in time. Isengard's defenders were on the verge of collapse under our incessant attacks.
And at this time, the elite troops of the Shadow Empire, who were originally rushing back, received the information brought by the herald that we had specially spared, and they had begun to march towards us in a hurry, and they would appear behind us in about three days.
"Hey, Liarra, what's going on over there? The elite troops of the Shadow Empire are about to come behind us! Lying in a chair, looking at the information in my hand, I asked Crystal Crystal with magic power.
"Rest assured, these idiots are completely oblivious to our 'little troops' and are just running back. We didn't let it go at all. Liarra's confident voice came to my ears.
"Hey, logistics director, how's the stuff going?" I turned my head and shouted to Wacker, who was hurrying by.
"That's enough to blush you bastard human a million times!"
"So let's take the last step, West?"
"It's been arranged a long time ago." (To be continued......)
