Chapter 243: The First Battle of the Barbarians 1
The heroic battle declarations of the Nirvana players resounded in the sky, but this did not seem to affect the barbarian army at the foot of the Great Wall of Desperation.
These barbarian soldiers, who licked blood on the knife all year round, had long been accustomed to the tense and oppressive pre-war atmosphere. The expressions on their faces were as cold as the weather, and through their fanatical eyes, the Nirvana players felt each other's strong desire to kill.
At this time, at the back of the barbarian army, a high platform made of logs was erected. The platform is about five feet high, and a huge war drum stands upright on the top of the platform. The surface of this war drum is made of cowhide, and the two drumsticks hanging from the drum stand are made of two long, thick thigh bones of unknown animals.
At this moment, out of the ranks of barbarian soldiers came an unusually tall and strong barbarian warrior, this barbarian warrior was two heads taller than ordinary barbarian soldiers, his upper body was naked, and on the two wide and thick chest muscles on his chest, there was a hideous-looking ice wolf head.
The barbarian warrior climbed the war drum stand more than five feet high and took the two one-meter-and-a-half-long drumsticks from the drum stand. Then he looked up at the sky with a reverent face, and the words in his mouth were recited.
After about ten seconds, the barbarian warrior finished praying. He turned his head to look at the Great Wall of Despair, raised the drumstick in his hand violently, and let out a furious roar from his mouth.
"Whew!"
The barbarian soldiers around the high platform of the war drums also raised their weapons in their hands like barbarian warriors, and erupted into a roar like a tsunami.
"Whew-Whew-Whewββ!"
The barbarian warrior turned to face the huge war drum, picked up the drumstick in his hand, and slammed it hard.
"Knockββ! Knock ββ! Knock ββ! β
In the deep night, the full moon illuminates the endless ice fields and snow as if it were day. Over this vast white wilderness. The muffled thunderous sound of war drums echoed.
At this time, the last row of soldiers of the barbarian army raised flaming torches. They lit torches in rows from back to front. It didn't take much effort, and the second half of the barbarian army was lined with torches. Countless torches converged and lit up half the sky.
The earth-shattering war drums suddenly increased the tempo, and the infantry in the front row of the barbarian army strode forward, and with the passionate drum beat, began to approach the desperate Great Wall.
400 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters...... When the barbarian army marched to a distance of 150 meters from the Great Wall of Desperation, the infantry in the front row stopped, and they screamed. All on one knee.
Yue Tian on the city wall saw the other party's momentum, and immediately understood the other party's intentions. He hurriedly shouted to the players of Nirvana:
"The enemy is about to shoot bows and arrows! Everyone, take cover! Gunner ready! β
As soon as Yue Tian's words fell, he saw that in the center of the battle formation of the barbarian army, two or three thousand barbarian archers stuck the long-handled torches that were more than one person high in their hands on the ground, and then took off the two-meter-long iron longbow that straddled their backs.
This kind of iron-tired longbow that is a head taller than the soldiers of Qin Ding can't pull his arms apart without the strength of a thousand catties. I saw those barbarian archers pull out a long ironwood feather arrow from the quiver on their backs, and the arrows of these ironwood feather arrows were stained with black liquid. The barbarian archer approached the torch planted in the ground with the arrow, only to hear "Whew!" With a bang, the black liquid on the arrow suddenly burst into flames.
"Oops! It's a rocket! "See the actions of the barbarian archers. Yue Tian secretly screamed, he hurriedly shouted at the gunners of Nirvana:
"Everyone, protect the gunpowder and shells of the Shenwu cannon!"
Hearing Yue Tian's reminder, the Nirvana gunners took out the thick felt that had been prepared for a long time and covered it on the powder keg and cannonball team next to the Shenwu cannon. These thick felts are not only sturdy, but they are also soaked in water. When a rocket hits it, it immediately goes off automatically.
At this moment, the barbarian archers under the Great Wall were ready. A barbarian general in armor beside the high platform of the war drum slowly raised his hand.
Two or three thousand barbarian archers immediately stretched out their bows and arrows, and the rattle of the bowstrings when they were drawn rang out.
At this time, the barbarian general let out a strange roar. The barbarian archers immediately raised their arrows diagonally upwards, and they aimed at the top of the Great Wall, which was hundreds of meters high.
At this time, it is on top of the Great Wall of Desperation. Yue Tian also gave orders to the gunners of Nirvana.
"Gunner ready!"
The makeshift artillerymen of the Nirvana Guild, which consisted of melee professional players, immediately adjusted the position of the muzzles, loaded the shells, and stood ready with torches.
At this moment, the rapid sound of war drums in the barbarian army came to an abrupt end!
"Kaxia!" The barbarian general's raised arm swung violently at Lu, giving the order to attack.
At the same time, Yue Tian also gave an order at the same time.
"All fire!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh! β
"Boom! Boom Boom! β
Thousands of flaming rockets shot out at the same time, piercing the deep night like a meteor shower; Clusters of cannonballs dragging the tail of fire were like meteorites falling from the sky, smashing fiercely into the formation of the barbarian army.
"Ahh "Boom!" "Ouch!" "Whew!" "Fight the fire!" For a time, there was a ghost crying and wolf howling on the Great Wall, and people turned over on their backs. Among the players and barbarian soldiers of Nirvana, countless were shot by rockets and blown away by Shenwu cannons......
Although the number of rockets fired by the barbarian archers is far more than the shells of the Shenwu cannon, and the barbarian archers have amazing arm strength, and the rockets they shoot are also very lethal, but they have no choice but to attack from the bottom up, and when the rockets fly to the top of the Great Wall at a height of 100 meters, their power has been greatly reduced, and shooting on Nirvana players can take away at most a quarter to a fifth of their HP.
The shells of the Shenmu cannon are different. These basketball-sized shells that explode when they land are powerful in themselves, and with gravitational acceleration, they are simply a big killer to harvest the lives of the enemy! Every shell that falls into the barbarian army can blow up the barbarian soldiers within a radius of more than ten meters, crying dad and mother, and flesh and blood flying. The craters with a diameter of more than three meters and the severed limbs and arms around the craters are the best proof of this.
After the first round of bombardment was over, the Nirvana gunners were busy reloading the Shenwu cannon with gunpowder and shells. Taking advantage of this gap, Nirvana's ranged pro players began to show their skills.
Although in the world of reincarnation, players rarely have a long-range attack distance of more than 100 meters, but Nirvana players occupy the commanding heights, and they can easily smash their spells and bows into the barbarian army formation 100 meters away with the help of geographical advantages and gravity influence. The only fly in the ointment is that the player's magic will be somewhat degraded when the attack range is exceeded. However, arrows and spears are not affected by distance. At a height of hundreds of meters on the Great Wall of Desperation, these sharp weapons can cause massive damage under the influence of gravitational acceleration even if they fall vertically.
At this moment, the sky above the Great Wall of Desperation is like a grand fireworks show. Colorful and colorful magic smashed into the barbarian army like a meteor shower, and in this spectacular "meteor shower" there were countless arrows and flying spears that seemed to have no special effects, but their lethality should not be underestimated.
Now the barbarian soldiers were even more miserable. They had just been baptized by the Shenwu cannon, and now they were beaten by the players of Nirvana. Vast expanses of barbarian soldiers had fallen, and the snow-capped ice fields were now full of charred craters, filled with arrows and spears of all kinds, and the bloody corpses had stained the snow a blinding red.
Seeing that the first round of attack launched by his team was met with a strong counterattack by the defenders of the Great Wall of Desperation, the commander of the barbarian vanguard team had red eyes and screamed in anger. He pulled out the barbarian scimitar hanging from his waist and pointed in the direction of the Great Wall of Desperation, giving the order for a second wave of attacks.
"Kasha Wuka!!"
The fierce war drums beat again, and this time the rhythm of the war drums beat even more rapidly.
Hearing the uplifting drums of war, the battered barbarian soldiers regained their spirits, and they quickly regrouped their ranks and rushed towards the walls of the Great Wall of Desperation against the attacks of the Nirvana players.
In less than 1 minute, these fierce barbarian infantry had almost rushed to the foot of the wall of the Great Wall of Desperation, and even those barbarian archers entered less than 100 meters away from the Great Wall of Desperation.
"Keep attacking! Don't let the enemy advance easily! Try to annihilate the enemy in the trench defensive positions! Yue Tian shouted anxiously to the soldiers of Nirvana. (To be continued......)
