Chapter 015: Hand-to-hand combat on the wall
Leinster finally rushed out of the Blue Kite Knights' line with a team of less than seventy Silver Knights, and after receiving a short supply from Murong Mingyue's Priest Order, he turned around and entered the woods, and he would make a relatively large circle and make a short rest before launching a second charge.
On the other side, after the rear of the Blue Kite Knights was ignited due to the fire oil depot, the fire became more and more fierce, and a number of tents were ignited, and a lot of woods were buried in a sea of fire, and the flames were like demons, quickly devouring the nearby players and NPC soldiers who had not had time to escape. The Blue Kite Army had to make large-scale rapid marching adjustments.
Moreover, the fire oil depot was set on fire, and there were no fire oil bombs, so that their twenty trebuchets became ornaments, and there was no place for them.
We also felt a lot less stressed!
"Great! They don't have the oil bombs, and now we can stand up straight and hit hard! Joyfully! Zi Qi Donglai said haha.
I think Nicholas must be so angry at this moment that he wants to tear Leinster to shreds.
Fusheng looked at me with a complicated expression, and finally showed that look on his face that could believe me.
For half an hour, the Blue Kite men were trying very hard to climb the city wall, but they still couldn't climb up despite our full resistance.
And there have been several groups of people under the car that hit the wall, and the corpses around are already piled higher than the mountain! They knocked down only a quarter of the durability of the gates.
In the end, they decided to send out the tower car, which was a behemoth, about the height of the city wall, three or four meters wide square columns, all covered with a kind of fireproof wood nails, and inside was a staircase.
Once the bridge is pulled over by this kind of climbing car, the bridge is lowered, so that the soldiers below can run up the stairs in the middle of the guò, which is much safer than climbing the ladder.
"This kind of building car is the most troublesome! The defense is too high to be able to fight at all! Zi Qi Donglai said gloomily.
I looked at both sides speechlessly, and could only roll my eyes helplessly and say, "This is really no way!" ”
Originally, there was a kind of large-scale machine crossbow machine called the crossbow machine through the wall, which was generally placed on the pier of the city wall, that is, on the stomping of the city wall, so that the giant crossbow arrow could be shot horizontally against the city wall, and after shooting through the building cars that climbed the city, the arrow mechanism would bounce off like an octopus and buckle the side of the building car.
And the tail was also attached to a huge hemp rope the thickness of a fist, and when the arrow was buckled, the soldiers on the battlements began to twist the bracket and pull the rope hard.
Under normal circumstances, the building car can be pulled down directly.
However, Silvermoon City actually didn't!
As a super city with a population of one million, there is no such siege equipment, I don't know where the fat man of the city lord got these things.
"Monk, adjust the direction and see if you can knock out those building cars!"
The building car is a behemoth, so the speed of movement is very slow, at least hundreds of strong soldiers are pushed hard underneath to be possible, and it is very difficult to control, the road is uneven or something, once it is stuck, it is not so easy to push out, and if it falls on its side, it is very likely to knock over the building car next to it by the way.
In order to avoid this kind of thing from happening, this kind of giant building car usually has a whole team of people in front of the paving and the like, clearing the obstacles on the road.
We only have three trebuchets, and besides, we are running out of fire oil bombs, so there are not many in the first place. If I hadn't told them to keep a few, they would have been gone.
The monk immediately began to ask the NPC to adjust the direction and angle, and finally tried to throw a fire oil bomb, but it missed. It didn't hit the building car head-on, but it grazed the top of the building car and hit it, damaging the top of the building car some.
"Excellent! Bring it closer! ”
The monk here took a few people to adjust the projectile curve of the catapult, and the governor over there was my father, who couldn't help but run over and shouted with a smile: "Brother Lin, there are too many enemies, I can't resist it over there!" Those NPCs are too cowardly, don't look at level 50, but the arrows they shoot have no attack power! It's not as good as our guild level 30 archers! Some of them even ran away! ”
There are also several small guild presidents who have also come to ask for reinforcements, although there are tens of thousands of people on such a long line of defense on our west gate wall, but after scattering it, basically no one is seen.
The entire defense line of the West Gate was divided into three sections, Dawn was responsible for guarding the position of the city gate in the middle, the scattered mercenaries were responsible for the southwest section of the city wall with 20,000 people, and the Heaven and Earth and the Changxing Gang were responsible for the other 20,000 people in charge of the northern section of the city wall. As for the other small guilds, I am in the middle of it, and each guild is responsible for a small section of defense.
Even so, the fire oil attack at the beginning of the war still caused us to lose our troops and hang up a lot of people.
Now that the Blue Kite Army has begun to climb the wall, it seems that the defense is a little insufficient. Although the NPC claims to be 30,000, they are all some water army, and they are idle shopping on weekdays, and it is okay to collect protection fees, but it is not a problem at all if they are really pulled to the battlefield.
I'm afraid that's why I've been wanted for so long and still haven't been hunted down by NPCs on a large scale! They're going to scare and scare people, who would dare to really come out of the city and arrest me.
Half an hour after the battle, the NPC soldiers in some places actually fled, and the NPCs all ran away, so can the player still have the confidence to stand there and defend? Besides, we are facing twice as many enemies as us, and among them is an elite army like the Blue Kite Knights who have been fighting monsters for many years, there is no comparison at all.
In the distance, several loud noises came at the same time, and Kang Han and his hundred-man berserk team were still fighting guerrilla battles with the elite knights of the Blue Kite on the periphery, and at the same time, several flowers bloomed, making the Blue Kite Knights exhausted!
I said excitedly, "This Kanghan is also too powerful!" Brothers, just hold on for a while! ”
At this moment, a fire oil bomb flew out of my head with a roar, pierced through a building car, burst, and a large hole was smashed in the middle of the building car, and at the same time, the burning oil poured out of the building car and began to burn from the inside.
Although it failed to collapse the building car, the nearby fire oil burned so that the soldiers who were pushing the cart below were busy jumping to extinguish the fire, and the building car was stopped.
"Monk, good job! Keep playing! I exclaimed excitedly.
However, the monk embarrassedly touched his somewhat blackened head and said, "Brother Lin, there are no more fire oil bombs!" ”
I'm embarrassed!
"Have the NPCs put away the catapult and return to Richerisburg!"
That's our last line of defense!
Located in the middle of Silvermoon City, Fort Richeris has a deep and wide moat that guards the castle of the Lord's Palace, with only four drawbridges leading to Guò on all sides. Once the suspension bridge is retracted, it is still a bit difficult to cross the moat.
"Others, follow me!" I pointed at the sky and shouted, "Take out your weapons and fight them!" ”
