As the saying goes, when the soldiers of the Gunningsen Empire saw the monster in the smoke and dust, even if they could already see the size and appearance, they were still far away, and there was a certain amount of time to prepare.

Tens of thousands of soldiers were about nine out of ten of them were undamaged in the earthquake, and even those who were injured were mostly minor.

But now, except for those who are in reserve and on standby in the city, the soldiers standing at the head of the city are all pale, as if they are seriously ill.

The spearmen were on the side of the archers, the archers were behind the battlements, and there were quivers on the ground and on the diagonal sides of the back.

The sound of heavy breathing was drowned out by the subtle vibrations of "Rumble...".

"Squeak...... Squeak......"

The two spearmen, one in front and one behind, clutched the handle of the hardwood spear in their hands, and the friction between the linen gloves and the shaft of the spear made a loud noise, even though they knew that they should relax their muscles the most at this moment, but they could not eliminate the tension at all.

This is at least more than three meters long horse rejection spear, generally controlled by the front and rear two soldiers, originally the officers asked the soldiers to carry the big guys in these weapons to the city, the soldiers below are still a little strange, but as long as the city head has seen it, there should be no such doubt.

"Relax!! relax!! otherwise you won't have the strength to spear in a while!!"

"Smack... Syllable... Smack......"

An officer ran up from a distance and struck all the soldiers on the arms with a soft rod in his hand, crackling on the leather armor and knocking the stiff soldiers back to their senses.

A person's responsibility can determine his height to a certain extent, and the reverse is also applicable, that is, a person's height can also affect his responsibility, which is equivalent to the ass deciding the head, both positive and negative, provided that there is a normal environment.

The emperors of the Gunningsen Empire worked hard to govern the country, and the army, which was the foundation of the beginning, was strictly governed, and the border army often had to deal with the friction of other countries and exterminate bandits and barbarians, often the elite of a country.

The fear of the officers is no less than that of the soldiers, but the officers in this military environment are well aware of one truth, the general leads the courage of the army.

The army's morale will collapse before the battle, the casualties will only be worse, and the chances of survival are not great.

"Don't be afraid!! don't be afraid!! we have walls!!"

"This is a fable that has been in the Protestant Church of Light for a long time!! and it is also within the defense plan that His Majesty the Emperor has already planned for a rainy day!!"

The general's personal guards also ran to the city walls, shouting as hard as they could, and even if they conveyed a message, they were also venting their fears.

"His Majesty the Emperor has long expected the appearance of monsters!! we have long known the situation in Asia!! we have a full 30,000 elites!! we can resist them!!It only takes two days!!As long as two days, there will be a steady stream of troops to support ......"

No matter how frightened they are, soldiers are much stronger than ordinary people, because long-term training and conquest have made them form a conditioned reflex, so they have gradually returned to the lowest normal state.

On the city walls, huge trebuchets and mechanical crossbows a few sizes smaller were already in place, and some soldiers were blushing and struggling to get onto the noose.

"Whew...... Call...... Whew......"

Next to the trebuchet, an old man in armor breathed heavily, and in this chaotic environment, he could still be heard clearly by the soldiers and lieutenants around him.

"General......

The deputy general wanted to speak and stopped, but his breathing was more stable, and each breath was long, but this didn't mean that he was really not afraid, he was just trying his best to restrain himself.

The old general seemed to realize his overly nervous gaffe, and reached out to touch his face, only to find that his face under the helmet mask was already the same as when he had just come out of the water.

"Although I'm old, I'm not old enough to lift a knife, and we have five enlightened people, so I don't know if I can ...... Can you stop it?"

The old general hesitated, but still did not say anything more discouraged.

The young lieutenant touched the hilt of his sword, the end of the hilt of this sword was inlaid with gems, and the scabbard was also trimmed with gold, which was too delicate and fancy for a lieutenant general of the border army, and it was also the only "discord" on the lieutenant's body, and it was no different from a fierce general.

He pointed to himself.

"General, you missed one, I'm also a civilizer. ”

The old general soothed his breath and looked at the lieutenant general on the side seriously, as if he was getting to know him again.

"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, then I won't be polite to you!"

That's really not an opinion.

The vibration under his feet was getting louder, and many archers had drawn arrows from their backs and mounted them on their bows.

"Trebuchet prepares !!"

The officers on the side have begun to shout at the top of their throats, as the elite of the border army, it is still possible to roughly estimate the approaching distance.

"Ignition !!"

Torches reached into the trebuchet's scoop and ignited the rolling stone projectiles wrapped in thick nets of twine, all soaked in grease for days and dried in the shade, extremely flame-resistant and uneasy to extinguish.

In this case, it is a single stone pill with a large volume, and depending on the situation, it will be replaced with a small volume and a larger number of loose pills.

The size of each stone pill of the single pill was like a carriage wheel, and when it was approached by the torch, the fire suddenly got up.

There is no need to calibrate it carefully at all, the size of those terrible monsters has become more and more obvious with the approach, and it is estimated that it is very smashed.

"Prepare !!!"

One by one, the soldiers in charge of the machine grabbed the expansion rod and silently recited the teachings of the god of light.

"Put!!"

The soldiers pulled down the wooden poles back and forth, and a total of thirty-two cityhead trebuchets were driven by mechanical nooses to throw projectiles, as were a dozen trebuchets on the near side of the city.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" ......

With a lit flame, the huge stone projectile burned and flew into the distance.

Among the demon armies that were getting closer and closer to the fortress, at the front were some crazy and brainless low-level demons, and those with high intelligence or intelligence were looking at the direction of the fortress with curiosity and mockery in the back or in the sky.

The projectile of the trebuchet cuts through the beautiful parabola and approaches the target with huge kinetic energy.

The demons are naturally not sluggish puppets, even if the low-level demons occupy the majority of this batch, they are basically ready to dodge the moment the projectile approaches.

However, the demon is a creature that is already very tyrannical, and the low-level demons are even more chaotic, unless they can fly, and the other dodging ones will hit the neighboring demons, and they will bite and fight with each other in the run, and for a while, the dodging of stones in some places has become secondary.

So after the projectile flew for some time.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" "Bang" ......

Nearly half of the nearly fifty Rolling Stone projectiles hit their targets directly, smashing some demons into continuous rolling, and even smashing some of the smaller ones directly into the air, while the rest were quickly avoided by the demons.

At the same time, the projectile was like dozens of obvious fireballs, rolling towards the rear on the path, and for a while, some low-level demons were hit, or simply other demons took the initiative to push the demons around them onto the fireball path.

Seeing that many monsters had fallen over because of the boulders, countless cathartic curses sounded on the city wall, and then the second round of stone throwing was soon launched again.

But the demons were too fast, and from the moment they entered the firing range, they only fired two or three times, and the trebuchets at the head of the city basically lost their effect, leaving only the ones in the far part of the city still firing.

The archers had already bent their bows to the full moon, and they didn't need to aim at all, and one by one the arrows flew towards the demons along with the giant arrows of the mechanical crossbow.

But what made the archers feel powerless was that those arrows were too weak, except for the mechanical crossbow, which could shoot some small demons, the other arrows were like cactus thorns piercing the skin, even with the eyes of the spine soldiers, they knew that they had little effect at all.

And the demons did not leave them more time to shoot a few more arrows, and after only two bows, the demons had already reached the city.

Rumble...... Rumble......

The entire fortress wall seemed to be shaking violently, and the soldiers in the city felt that their bodies were shaking and unstable, and then a large number of demons climbed or jumped directly onto the city, and the towering city wall was too short for the people at the top of the spine......

"Rejection of the !!"

Countless spears pressed against the ground and stood at an angle of thirty degrees.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang" "Bang" "Poof" "Poof" "Poof" ......

Hot blood splattered everywhere, countless long poles snapped, and countless spear tips went into the flesh.

Some soldiers pale their swords and shields, while others retreat to aim for weaknesses such as eyes and mouths.

At this moment, fear, excitement, confusion... All kinds of emotions coexist.

"For the glory of the Empire!!"

"Ah!!h

The roars of the officers and the roars of the soldiers mingled with the roars of the demons and the shaking of the ground.

"Boom ......"

A large section of the fortress's walls was directly collapsed by the tall demons, and at the same time, many demons jumped directly over the walls into the city, and some flying demons in the sky also slid down from above.

This fragile rigidity was like a bubble, and the fortress city was submerged after holding out for more than ten minutes.
