Chapter 45: Defeat the Enemy

As the saying goes, it is easier to siege a city than to defend a city, and in the face of a large-scale attack by the enemy, how to protect your base camp intact is a critical moment to test the ability of a commander.

From the overall situation, the reason why Yang Lei chose to let Enzo serve as the deputy city lord is precisely because he took a fancy to his command ability, after all, he once established the Red Leaf Club with his own hands, and Enzo has a unique view of the battle situation from a macro perspective, at this time, it can be seen from his unruly style of standing on the city wall.

The trebuchet is one of the essential weapons for almost every castle, because the actual combat role is far more important than the cost.

The traditional lever-based trebuchet is obviously not suitable for modern warfare, as it is too large to move, while the trebuchet of the Stormwind is specially crafted. This technological advance, with only four wheels installed, largely replaced manpower and required only two soldiers to operate on their own.

When a whole row of catapults was loaded with ammunition, they stood silently on the city wall, and with Enzo's order, they hurried away into the distance.

In fact, the structure of this catapult is very simple, only a huge lever, the long end is loaded with an iron basket to load incendiary bombs, and the short end is tied to dozens of ropes, and the ammunition is thrown at the enemy after being mechanically pulled by the rope twister, which can have a range of nearly a kilometer.

This long-range attack weapon plays a great role in tactics, especially after being equipped with an incendiary bomb weighing more than five hundred pounds, it becomes more and more terrifying, even a heavy armored vehicle cannot engage it under a frontal attack, and this trebuchet also has the advantage of having a high degree of freedom, which can move with the enemy's movements, that is, it can attack and defend.

Taken together, this kind of low-cost, fast-producing machine still has an irreplaceable position on the battlefield.

The envelope-like incendiary bomb slashed through the air in a gorgeous arc and landed accurately in front of the people of the God of War Guild, and before anyone could react, they were burned to pieces by the bomb containing napalm and yellow phosphorus.

After the first wave of trebuchets fired, Enzo did not immediately let the soldiers launch a second round of attacks, but waited quietly for two minutes before seeing the effect of the incendiary bombs slowly subside, and then waved his hand lightly.

In the eyes of the mobile suits of the God of War Guild, this flammable bomb was like wings, clinging tightly to their surroundings, and the temperature began to rise rapidly with the momentum of a prairie fire, and the temperature of nearly 1,000 degrees Celsius made it difficult for these pilots to open their eyes, and the roasted skin and flesh could only retreat backwards quickly.

"The rest is up to him......"

When the enemy army quickly withdrew to the far side of the city wall, for a while, Locke was left alone.

After a few rounds of hard fighting with the challenger, instead of taking advantage of it, he was embarrassed by the rapidly rising temperatures around him.

During this period, the Challenger's flexible and steady feel, as well as its excellent anti-hitting performance, made Yang Lei have to be impressed by this type of aircraft that was widely used in the federal army during solar storms. Although the Challenger's body is very heavy, it can beat the Lesser-K24 in terms of air intake and power.

A classic is a classic! It can never be replaced!

Looking at Locke, who was helpless to deal with this model, Yang Lei quietly opened the machine gun muzzles on both sides of the challenger, and a burst of bombardment passed, and Locke suddenly lost his temper.

"Give up resistance! There is no point in your pointless struggle! Locke had to do psychological warfare against Yang Lei, he actually really hoped that Yang Lei could join the God of War Guild, so that he undoubtedly had another powerful helper, and then said: "As long as your people open the city gates, I can guarantee their safety!" ”

"What if I say no?!"

This admiral is inevitably too verbose...... After Yang Lei finished speaking, without waiting for the other party to react, he turned on his energy and carried out another assault on Lesser, this time, he wanted to completely defeat him.

"Brave of the horseman, wait for destruction!"

As the highest rank in the entire blueprint, Locke is very common for this kind of rushing and punching attack, you know, the three gold stars on his shoulders are not covered!

In the face of the challenger's sudden attack, Locke's face did not change in the slightest, and with two clicks, Lesser clenched his strong fist, rushed forward a few steps and wrapped his arms around his chest.

When the challenger's titanium knife had already landed on top of Lesser's head, Locke suddenly threw a punch, smashed into the front of the titanium knife with a sonorous bang, and kicked towards the challenger's lower plate with a movement of his feet, and the challenger, who was already beyond the weight of all mechas, did not move at this time.

"What a solid next plate!"

"It's incredible......"

"This is the most stable mech I've ever seen!"

In terms of performance, the Challenger is not as good as the modified NA01-CNG Assaulter, because the Challenger is more than one level better than the Challenger in terms of weapons and equipment and the control system, but the CNG project team of the Federation ignored the most important point back then, when the Raider does not have that unique skeleton and loses its super load-bearing, even if it has a sophisticated weapon, it cannot face the frontal suppression of the fantasy mecha.

According to Yang Lei's point of view, it doesn't matter what weapon the mecha uses, what is used to load the weapon is the key, whether it is hand-loaded or peripherals, these two design styles are different from the pilot's own senses, a machine like a human, or a person like a machine, it all depends on the pilot's thoughts.

As a more powerful machine, even a powerful mecha itself cannot replace a human on the battlefield. But if the two are perfectly combined, it is a redefinition of the battlefield of the future.

Let's say that the challenger put the titanium knife back in a demonstrative way after a charged blow from Lesser, and the challenger jumped up from the ground with his bare hands, bent his right arm upwards at 90 degrees, and then fell downward with gravity, and smashed an elbow on Lesser's shoulder.

With a click, the challenger who almost gave his whole body weight to this blow suddenly smashed Lesser to the ground, looking at Lesser who was twisted and deformed in his legs and knees, Yang Lei threw it over with another hook, and Lesser's head, which was relatively weakly armored, suddenly fell back, and his whole body fell to the ground uncontrollably.

The soldiers on the city wall saw this scene and shouted long live, while the officials of the God of War Guild in the distance were silent, and for a moment, the two sides were in stark contrast, and it all depended on their respective generals.

Kneeling on his knees and his head bowed, Locke's confidence in the blueprint was shattered after two defeats from the same person, and his face was full of frustration, because he was not only facing a private, but also the lowliest mech.

"I'm losing, convinced!"
