Chapter 280: The Siege Begins

Chapter 280: The siege begins

The siege battle finally started two hours after Zhu Wen woke up, Zhu Wen asked Dougla beside him, he had only slept for two hours on the table before, but two hours was enough for Zhu Wen, an ordinary person, two hours of deep sleep a day was enough, not to mention that Zhu Wen was not an ordinary person. Welcome to the reading

Outside the city of Karpass, the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms Alliance are rushing towards the city of Karpasia like a tide, each soldier has several siege weapons hanging on his body, this is a very simple but very effective engineering equipment, about half a meter long, the thickness of the forearm, the front head with a point, just like an enlarged awl, the use method is also very simple, run to the city wall directly throw this siege cone on the city wall.

All soldiers are professionally trained, and ordinary people in this world have the system of earth special forces, and the trained soldier system is many times stronger, even the most ordinary soldiers after training, can also insert the siege cone deep into the city wall, these soldiers with low strength are with the help of this siege cone to continue to climb to the city wall, first nail a siege cone, and then step on it to climb a little higher, and then nail, and then step on it, so that it will get higher and higher, and finally climb the city wall.

Their bodies are placed here, so they can use this seemingly difficult siege method, and this siege method is the most applicable in this world, they will never use something like a siege ladder, that thing is too easy to break, a strong master can smash the siege ladder with a random sweep, the siege ladder is gone, is it a dry stare?

Some of the strong enough masters in the coalition army will not jump on the city wall lightly, there are people from the other side, and there is no shortage of masters, before ordinary soldiers do not attack the city wall, these masters are no different from sending them to death.

Siege warfare, that is, the life to fill, the Karpas soldiers standing above the city wall keep using bows and arrows to roll stones hot oil to attack the coalition soldiers below who want to climb up, those soldiers who have just climbed half of the way will fall like dumplings, but they will have a subconscious action before going down, pushing the city wall, and the reaction force will keep themselves away from the city wall, so that when they fall, they will not hit the soldiers who are still climbing below.

The allied soldiers use a two-point stationary and one-point climbing method, both feet and one hand together..., both feet stepped on and moved with one hand, as long as the manual is fast, there is no unstable falling down, grab a higher siege cone, and then one foot moves, the other foot moves again, and so on, and the remaining hand will hold a weapon, chop flying arrows and small stones, encounter hot oil and the like, you can only turn over and dodge, siege and climb the city wall, is a very important training project in the army, It is said that some soldiers who are not strong but have excellent ability to climb the siege wall can stand firmly on the siege cone without using their hands, relying only on their feet, and can quickly climb the city wall.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the walls around the city of Karpasia, and the coalition soldiers went one after another, using their bodies to consume the hot oil of the opponent's arrows and stones.

Soon, a thick layer of corpses piled up on the ground under the base of the city wall.

Outside the wall of the city wall of three hundred, the archers of the coalition army would shoot at the archers of Karpas on the wall, and some of the arrows were lit with flames on the heads, but due to the predominance of the high point of archery, the soldiers on the wall were killed much less than the coalition army, and from time to time the corpses of the archers would fall from the walls, and if they were lucky, they could also bring a few coalition soldiers who were climbing down with them.

Above the sky, the three level powerhouses of the three legions were besieging Azir and Zhennuf, and five huge monster phantoms appeared behind the five level powerhouses, although it was three against two, but it was not so easy for them to take down or kill Azir and Zhennufu.

The level powerhouses of the three legions are all from different countries, and they have rarely interacted before, even if they have friendships, it is estimated that they will not be too deep, this is the advantage of Azir and Zhennufu, the two are from the same country, they are as close as brothers and dare not say, but at least they are good friends, the level powerhouses of the same country will practice a kind of battle formation, only two people or three people are needed, although because the battle formation is too small, so the improved combat ability is not very much, but they cooperate with each other to attack and defend to a certain extent, It was also enough for Azir and Zhennufu to deal with the siege of the three levels of powerhouses.

Although the battle formation is small, there are many changes, and it is not so easy to rehearse, and even if the commanders of the three legions want to practice the battle formation, the time will not allow it.

The mercenaries in Karpas City do not need to participate in the battle for the time being, unless you are willing to go out of the city now, otherwise it will not be their turn, the soldiers on the city walls are professionally trained, not comparable to mercenaries, and it will be very dangerous to go up and not help much, after all, the archers of the coalition army are not vegetarians. Only when a large number of coalition soldiers climbed on a certain city wall did the mercenaries officially take action and climb the city wall to participate in the battle, therefore, the mercenaries in Karpas City were divided into four parts, and there were many mercenaries standing under the four walls of the east, west, north and south.

But it is likely that they will not be needed at all today, Karpas City is not so fragile, 550,000 regular troops, plus Karpas City has long been stockpiled with arrows for many years, can allow Karpas Kingdom to hold out for a while, once a certain wall is on a large number of coalition soldiers, then it will not be far from breaking the city.

As the capital of the Karpas Kingdom, the city of Karpas is no worse than the city of wind and sand, the thickness of the city wall is at least more than 100 meters, even if the level of the strong wants to destroy the city wall, it is not so easy, and the four city gates are all made of black iron as a whole, which is stronger than the city wall, so in this kind of siege battle that attacks the capital, there will basically be no excessive damage to the city wall or broken city gates, which is very different from the siege of a small city.

If you want to attack the city of Karpasia, you can only climb the city wall, as long as there are enough ordinary soldiers on the wall, all the masters in the coalition who can jump directly on the city wall will jump on it.

Zhu Wen leaned against the corner of the wall, because the light of the entire Nightless Wasteland came from the entire sky, so he still couldn't feel yin cool under the city wall, it was still so hot, Zhu Wen's current body naturally didn't sweat, but he looked very anxious.

The mercenaries who were also staying in the corner or squatting or standing couldn't imagine that in their eyes, this invincible ninth-level powerhouse of almost the same level kept muttering in their hearts: "Attack, you should attack." Zhu Wen was very worried, others were worried that the coalition army would attack, and if they attacked, it would mean fighting, it would mean dying, but Zhu Wen was actually worried that they would not be able to attack.

In the eyes of other mercenaries, the soldiers of the coalition army are executioners who will take their lives at any time, but in Zhu Wen's eyes, they are rations to improve their strength, can he not worry, the rations will always not be served, Zhu Wen will not be able to eat, and he can't go out of the city to kill, right? It's too dangerous, it's all their people out there.

The first siege of the coalition lasted for three hours, and only a few coalition soldiers climbed the city wall, but they were all chopped into meat sauce, and there was no large-scale attack on the city wall by the coalition army, and the mercenaries had no chance to make a move.

This siege, the preliminary estimate is that the enemy's three legions have lost at least 50,000 people, and the kingdom of Karpas is not comfortable, at least 20,000 people died in this siege battle, the dead are still secondary, the most important thing is that the counter-siege materials such as arrows and rolling stones consume a lot, at this time, these materials are more important than the soldiers, if they are consumed, they can only go to demolish the house, and once there is a shortage of materials, it is easy for the other party to attack it, once a certain city wall is occupied, a large number of coalition soldiers will enter Karpasia City, and it is a little worse, The gates of the city were opened, and the arrival of the coalition forces was really over.

The coalition army retreated like a tide, leaving corpses all over the ground, and the soldiers on the various city walls breathed a sigh of relief, this first wave was carried over, and the coalition army gradually retreated away, and a special small city gate would open next to the city gate in the rear, and many Karpasian soldiers would go out from that gate to collect arrows pierced on the corpses under the city wall.

The second wave of the coalition attack came faster than expected, and they only rested for an hour before they came again and began the second siege.

Blood, corpses, roars, shouts, screams...... All the soldiers are fighting bloodily, fighting for their country, for the king they are loyal to, and the bloody gas gradually accumulates in the air, slowly becoming viscous, mixed with the burning smell of ** burning, a different kind of disgusting.

This time the siege is much more fierce than the last time, they seem to have adjusted their tactics, wanting to break through the city in one go, the most obvious change is that many seventh, eighth, or even ninth level powerhouses in the coalition army will jump directly on the city wall, slash and kill, once the situation is not good, they will jump off the city wall immediately, of course, there are some unlucky strong people will be entangled, and then turn into meat sauce.

This chaos on the city wall, the coalition soldiers will attack the city more easily, although this tactic will lose some masters in advance, but I have to say, it is very useful, the north city wall even poured a small wave of coalition soldiers, almost caused a large area of coalition soldiers to climb the city wall, but in the end this small wave from the top was all cut down.

Due to the emergence of this situation, the mercenaries finally came in handy, the mercenary master content is naturally higher than the army, at this time the shot on the city wall can play a great role, especially in the face of the other party suddenly jumped up a few eighth-level or even ninth-level powerhouses, the mercenary masters rushed up, enough to make up for the lack of a number of masters on the Karpas side.

Zhu Wen, who had a sad face, finally smiled.
