Chapter 115: Siege Again
"General Roland is here." Mu Lan said suddenly.
In the war room, several members of the rock-solid team stopped discussing and looked at the door in unison.
There was a steady sound of footsteps, and then General Roland, dressed in a crisp military uniform, walked into the war room, and behind him were several officers, whose eyes were full of inquiry.
"This is what you call a sand table?" General Roland stepped forward, his attention was attracted by the large sand table, curiously circled around the sand table, and after careful observation, exclaimed: "This thing perfectly reproduces the terrain around us!" That's wonderful! ”
"It's not perfect." Shen Wei denied: "There are still many details that have not been taken into account, after all, the military map you gave is too rough, you must know that any small hole on the battlefield will cause us a huge miscalculation." ”
General Roland smiled dryly and said, "I will send another reconnaissance team to improve the details on the sand table, you can rest assured." ”
Several of his officers were also attracted by the sand table, and for a while their eyes were almost glued to it, refusing to take it off, this kind of unprecedented thing really subverted their imagination, the sand table made the complex map image intuitive, and it was foreseeable that this thing would bring great convenience to tactical deduction and games.
General Roland coughed lightly, and several officers who had never seen the world retracted their gaze in embarrassment.
"I'm amazed by what you think, the whole city has been mobilized, is this really what a mercenary group can do?" General Roland sighed.
"It's a mercenary group of His Royal Highness the Prince." Mu Lan emphasized that she knew that many things were difficult to explain, and pulled out the banner of Prince Julian.
"Yes, yes, we are Julian's people!" Lin Yiyi nodded and said, "Maybe the king will give one of us a knight's title." ”
"Poof!" Zhao Ziyu smiled, looked at Lin Yiyi and said, "Your brain circuits always surprise me. ”
"What's wrong!" Lin Yiyi pouted, "Helping him so much, it's not easy to be a knight." ”
The topic was successfully deviated by Lin Yiyi, and General Roland did not continue to ask, but laughed dryly twice, and said: "If His Royal Highness Julian can finally enter the city of Saint-Dentier, you original supporters must be more than just a knight, and your horizons should be broadened a little." ”
These are all later words, and when the main quest is completed, it will be back to the main god space, and the status of honor in this world is not so important, Mu Lan pulled away Lin Yiyi and Zhao Ziyu, who were pinching up, and she sensed a soldier running here in a hurry during her spell detection.
Moments later, the soldier knocked on the door and stood still in a military salute.
"General! The scout team has found out the situation! ”
Seeing the soldier's panting and sweating appearance, he knew that the situation was urgent, and General Roland immediately said, "What have you found?" ”
The soldier took a breath and said, "The reconnaissance team has found traces of demonic beasts in the back mountains, there are many of them, they are hidden in the mountains and forests, and only a few of our three reconnaissance teams have come back alive to report the news." ”
It's not good news that the Monster has finally appeared, and it's still behind Willenburg.
Because most of the defense is in front of the fortress, Willenburg is built in the middle of the mountains, and it is relatively safe behind it, but Warcraft is not like humans, they are mostly agile and agile, and it is very bad to cross the mountains to attack Willenburg's weakest point.
Everyone realized the seriousness of the situation, General Roland frowned deeply, thought for a moment on the sand table and said: "Strengthen the defense of the east, divide three garrisons there, and send more scouts to investigate the situation, be sure to find out the scale of the demonic beast!" ”
"The barbarian demonic beasts are indeed very tricky, Mu Lan, do you have any way?" Shi Zhengyang said in the heart link.
Mu Lan kept tapping on the table, her brain was spinning rapidly, she recalled the mountain range she had crossed, the terrain was very steep, and in some places it was even so narrow that it was impossible to open it, although the demonic beasts were agile, but the tide of demonic beasts of the scale of Wheat Field Village and Lagong Forest should not appear in the back mountains.
And she vaguely felt that the appearance of Warcraft at this time was a signal, since the Warcraft army was already in place, then now was a good opportunity to attack Wellenburg in many ways.
"An even more tragic battle may begin." Mu Lan took a deep breath and said seriously.
Outside Willenburg, the black-pressed barbarian army began to advance forward, this time there were no forward troops, but all pressed on, standing on the wall and looking down, this shocking scene made people feel numb.
Every time the barbarian army took a step, it could make a loud noise, and their war drums sounded, and the overall momentum gave people great psychological pressure.
Some of the soldiers were already trembling, their weapons almost dropped, and many of them turned pale, trying to overcome the shadow of fear of the barbarians.
"Don't be afraid!" The young Warseer shouted, pointing to the black-pressed crowd in the distance and said, "Have you forgotten what I taught you, those are just shepherds from the North, not monsters, not devils!" When a person is killed, he dies! They are the same as us. ”
"Behind you is Willenburg! Behind him is His Royal Highness the Prince! The Warlord shouted with emotion: "Protect our loved ones!" Protect Norsval! ”
"We have nowhere to retreat, kill the barbarians who dare to invade us, and cut off their heads! Crush them to ashes! ”
"Kill them!" Some soldiers shouted loudly.
"Kill them!"
"Kill!"
The defenders erupted into a high-pitched roar, and their morale was instantly boosted, and the archers behind them began to move, aiming their arrows at the sky and adjusting the angle of the parabola.
The large crossbow machines on the four city walls were aimed at the barbarian army, and from time to time soldiers carrying the equipment to defend the city ran back and forth on the city walls, and the people in the city took refuge in the pre-dug cellars after the alarm bell rang, and the whole fortress was crowded with a certain order, and everyone was like a pre-adjusted clockwork gear, and the war machine was set in motion.
"Shoot the arrows!" After the enemy reached the attackable range, the officers decisively demanded the release of the arrows.
A black rain of arrows was hurled from Willenburg towards the barbarian army, interspersed with heavy crossbow bolts loaded with explosives, and the attack was during the day, so there was no such spectacle as the last time.
The rain of arrows rained down from the sky, but the barbarians did not stop, they propped up their round shields, and began to charge forward faster, faster than before.
The round shield could not protect against all angles, and countless barbarians were shot by arrows, and the army was full of mourning, some of them died very miserably, and their bodies were full of arrows like hedgehogs, and some of them could not even scream, and they were blown into pieces by ballistas.
The barbarians began to fight back, and a dense array of arrows also shot at Wellenburg, and more than a dozen catapults started at the same time, and huge stones roared towards them.
