Chapter 166: The Eagle Man Siege City
After recruiting a very good little arrow hero, the other 4 buddies were all eliminated......
A man in the dark, no bright spots; A low-level monster hero who can be seen at a glance is also without a bright spot; One is a lizard cavalry hero, and he is still a man; The last one is a mummy hero, forget about him......
Lin Tian was running wildly with all his might, and the thieves he had arranged in this direction had already sent news that the Boulder Pass was under attack and was about to fall......
Sid is a valiant Wehrmacht commander and the Supreme Commander of the Wehrmacht guarding the Great Stone Pass!
He actually knew very well in his heart that his small army, which had only more than 4,000 people left until now, seemed to have been abandoned by the adults...... He didn't believe that this was His Majesty's decision, because he knew that His Majesty the King was now fighting the undead on the northern front, and he was afraid that he would not have time to take care of this side. This is most likely the cheating order given by those officials and masters in the royal capital!
Cursing in his heart is curse, but the commander who has received a short-term education at a military academy and has some military literacy knows in his heart that if he were one of these officials, he might give the same order! The reason is not complicated, if the orcs break through the boulder pass, then after passing it will be a flat river, these orcs will rush in, I am afraid that they can only be defended in some fortified cities, and the civilians will basically suffer a big crime.
This force of his own, like the wooden wedge on the plank of a ship that was destined to rot and leak, was nailed here until it was all destroyed...... Just to let the people behind get more time to evacuate and get more opportunities to accumulate troops!
Sid accepted the assignment and did not regret it! Even though he knew that his ending might not be too good, he didn't feel any pity. Soldiers! If you don't go up at this time, do you have to run away in a panic to the back? It's a pity! After this battle, he may no longer be able to serve His Majesty......
It was not the enemy's army that attacked the city outside the city, and the orc infantry did not move quickly. Here came their rapid reaction force, a large force of wolf cavalry, and a force of eaglemen flying in the air......
These enemy rapid reaction forces, probably on the orders of the commander, broke away from the group on light horse, aiming directly at Boulder Pass; But what they didn't expect was that they encountered more than 5,000 Terran Wehrmacht guards; These troops, known for their speed, immediately launched siege warfare that they were not good at!
In this kind of hand-to-hand siege warfare, these orcs are at a loss. They had to give up their speed advantage and go head-to-head with the Terran warriors. Fortunately, they are not only fast, but also have a very high fighting quality; The wolf cavalry, who have always liked assault, began to play auxiliary, but the flying eagle troops started the main attack!
You must know that the Boulder Pass is indeed a male pass! Its walls are more than 10 meters above the ground, and the sheer thickness of the walls is outrageous, allowing four horse-drawn carriages to travel side by side. Under the checkpoint, there is a moat with an average width of more than 3 meters; On both sides of the giant straight city wall of more than 1,000 meters, there are steep cliffs that make people lose their desire to climb just by the eye......
If there were no 5,000 eagle troops present, the werewolf leader would not let his precious cavalry be used as cannon fodder! He stared at the eaglemen flying everywhere over the battlefield, this is really a beautiful group of warriors! It is better to call them hawkmen than to call them birdmen......
These eagles, except for their very high noses and a slight eagle hook, actually look like ordinary humans, but with a pair of huge gray or white wings, which are said to be the color of their wings to distinguish their status.
The group of eagle warriors in front of him were mostly melee warriors armed with rapiers or scimitars, and some were armed with spears; Only a small number of guys can shoot in the air with bows and arrows on their backs, and this kind of eagle archers are extremely rare, because aerial shooting is very affected by air currents, and it is difficult to maintain sufficient accuracy. But most importantly, God gave them wings, but they weren't strong enough!
It's okay to fly at low altitudes, and it's okay to sprint at high speeds for short periods of time, but carrying weights will seriously affect their agility. Either bring more equipment to reduce your high mobility, or streamline your equipment as much as possible to maintain your top speed, all Hawkmen face this multiple-choice question, without exception!
Eagle archers, this is the product of a difficult choice, because they have to carry a lot of bows and arrows, at least 30 in a pot, right? Coupled with a powerful bow, these can have a serious impact on rapid flight, how can it be compared to a warrior who is only armed with a scimitar? These archers tend to be the baby bumps of the troops, and then the slowest guys......
There is also a high-level warrior who can be equipped with a spear and carry two short spears on his back, which has more or less a little long-range attack ability; These should be considered strong guys with well-developed pectoral muscles and wings.
The wolf cavalry, who served as a feint, accelerated to the vicinity of the moat, and then flipped a shot, attracting a large number of long-range attacks, and then quickly broke away......
It was only at this time that the defending human warriors discovered that the deadly attack had come from the air......
Following behind the wolf cavalry, using the smoke from front as a cover, the large group of eaglemen began to use the speed of the start, and then flapped their wings into the air......
Sid immediately ordered the archers to abandon the current wolf cavalry and immediately attack the eagle warriors who were taking to the air. Immediately after the order was given, a large number of bows and arrows fell in mid-air, shooting down many unlucky eaglemen!
These hawkmen actually have a lot of fatal weaknesses after they have the ability to fly in dry maneuvers! The main one of them is that it is almost impossible to equip armor protection, and the wings are relatively weak in protection! They are the most feared enemy of ranged units, as they have deadly aerial assault capabilities. At the same time, it is also a class that is only afraid of long-range attacks...... It seems unreasonable, but it is actually very normal!
Seeing this terrible group of enemies, the defense was so weak, and the defenders on the city walls worked even harder...... Many eagle men were shot down, and they don't know if they live or die!
But the good times don't last long, and the opponent's counterattack is coming soon! The 10-meter-high city wall is no less than a moat for a melee unit! But for the eagle man who is good at flying, it is just the concept of a few more wings.
Many of them did not climb to the heights, but rushed directly to the walls from the lows! You must know that if you rise to a higher position, although you have a height advantage, it will take more time, I am afraid that more people will be hit by a long-range attack, it is better to rush up directly, and some unlucky guys may be like moths to a fire, and be directly hit in the vital part; But more Hawkman warriors rushed into the defending units that were trying to shoot!
The hand-to-hand engagement began almost instantly!
