Chapter 64: Demons Gather
With the benefit of hindsight, after seeing the gargoyle people causing a lot of damage to the city, the mercenary groups reacted and rushed back to the city with grenades and **.
They weren't idiots after all, and although they didn't pay attention to the Demon Manual at first for various reasons, when it happened, most of them used explosives against the Gargoyle as the Demon Manual said.
The east city wall is not bad, there are only six stone statue groups, and the direction of the north city is the enemy's main attack area, and twenty stone statue groups are thrown over in one go, if Li Yang didn't know that this time the demon attacked the city, and the number of stone statues was limited, he would have been shocked.
The city was filled with cries, and at least thousands of people lost their homes and lives to this stone statue struck alone.
This is also something that Zhang Sheng brought back two people, Li Yang didn't mind, this kind of poor person, eating bowls of military food is not too much.
The bearded man was very barehead, and when he saw the steaming rice, he borrowed a bayonet from someone and scraped it a few times on his face, even if he was clean, he was not gregarious when he first arrived, and he said that he was still a handyman, and it was not good to hold a shield soldier anymore, and the things were returned to Zhang Sheng, holding the rice bowl, and following Xiao Aiyang to squat in the corner and swallow the rice.
"This place is really good, not only can you fight monsters, but you can also eat a full meal, I just looked at it, those who also do miscellaneous work can also add rice, I'll add rice in a while, you kid come to a bowl?"
"I can't even eat this sharp bowl of rice, and I still add rice, Uncle Beard, you better go by yourself." Ai Yang concentrated on fighting with the potatoes, and there was a taste of ginger in it, a good thing.
"Don't call me Uncle Beard, just call me Uncle Liu, the neighbors in the street, you and I are left with the hundred and ten people, I don't care who cares about you, don't worry, Uncle covers you."
"Well, I just asked, the Nirvana Mercenary Regiment only recruits soldiers over the age of sixteen, I am not old enough, I can only be a miscellaneous worker, but Uncle you are different, you have a big waist and a round waist, you look like a black bear, that Zhang Company Commander is not as strong as you, if you mix well, maybe you can be a company commander or something."
Ai Yang is only fourteen years old, he is late, and he still looks like he is only eleven or twelve years old, but when he praises people, he can say it with a small mouth.
"Hey, look and see, look and see."
Liu Yan took another bowl of rice, came back and said mysteriously: "Xiao Aiyang, I just saw that captain Zhang gave the ten blue crystals he got from the gargoyle man to the head of the regiment, I told you kid, I also have one." ”
Liu Yan took out an energy crystal nucleus and gave Ai Yang a mysterious look.
"Then hand it in, maybe you can become a soldier."
"Fart soldiers, I've inquired, the Nirvana Mercenary Regiment is full, I'll talk about it after this battle, as for this, I'll study it first, maybe it's a baby." After speaking, Liu Yan put the crystal on his chest and carefully collected it.
There was chaos in the city, and there were shouts and explosions everywhere, Li Yang didn't understand, killing those stone statues who were just weapons of war, and shouting.
The war has not yet begun, this group of stone statues is just a temptation, the commander of the demon is in good command, and he does not carry out the second step, just a simple round of test firing, which makes the human beings tense their nerves, and the long-term tense nerves will make people feel tired, which is already at the level of psychological warfare.
Who knows when the next wave of attacks will begin? Who knows that the next catapult will not be smashed directly on the city wall, and if one of them is not careful, they will be stoned to death, in this case, who can rest in peace?
Only Li Yang can, because the demon's long-range means are nothing more than that, and their main attack method is to fill the city wall with crowd tactics.
As long as the demons do not assemble under the city, it means that they can sleep in peace.
Therefore, among the mercenary groups and armies that have been busy with the gargoyle for a day, only the Nirvana mercenary group dares to fall asleep.
The soldiers believed Li Yang, and Li Yang said that there was no war today, that is, there was none.
The relaxation of the Nirvana mercenary group seems a little weird in this increasingly depressing atmosphere.
On the 28th of May, when the sky was dark, dark clouds gathered, and drums were heard in the distance, and no one needed to say that the real siege of the demon was about to begin.
The nirvana mercenary regiment's auxiliaries were left with less than a hundred people, who were responsible for transporting ammunition and the wounded, and all of them were withdrawn to the base.
The drizzle began to fall at some point, but fortunately there was no exposed gunpowder, otherwise it would have been miserable.
However, the ammunition is not afraid of showering, but it is afraid of being soaked, and the ammunition boxes are all stacked on sandbags so that they will not be soaked.
The figure of the demon appeared on the horizon again, led by the low bodies of the little demons in red, yellow, and blue, and they wielded all kinds of rudimentary weapons, and began to move slowly towards the city wall under the supervision of the sacrifice and other demon species.
Immediately after that, there were formations of Cerberus and Longhorn Demons, and even a group of small winged demons appeared in the sky.
The density was so large that you couldn't see the higher-level demons behind you even with a telescope, but vaguely, the bodies of plasma demons, sand demons, and even ogres appeared in the looming enemy formation.
The little devil's troops appeared at the forefront, and two kilometers from the city wall were still in formation.
It looked like it could attack at any moment, but when all the defenders of the eastern city were ready, the enemy stood unhurriedly.
Suddenly, there was a loud gunfire in Beicheng, and Li Yang was shocked.
I remember that in my previous life, four walls were besieged at the same time!
Why did the north gate open first this time!
The artillery units in the city even used mortars to make a counterattack for the first time, and the clear trajectory drew an arc in the city and fell into the north direction of the city.
The guns and artillery in the direction of the north gate were heavy for half an hour, and the enemy outside the east city was still indifferent, lined up to deter, and made a posture of attacking at any time, but there was no movement.
An hour later, when Li Yang saw that the army's light mortar company began to move from its position outside the east gate to the north gate, Li Yang knew that this was the idea that the demon was fighting.
The north gate was the main attack first, and after attracting a lot of firepower from the human defenders, the gap was opened in one go from other directions!
The Demon Commander is quite good!
This is a conspiracy, but the army does not dare to gamble, because the situation at the north gate must be endangered to a certain extent!
The fierce battle at the North Gate lasted for a full morning, and the human army came with a mortar salvo, and the fire of eight light and heavy mortar companies carried out a barrage of fire outside the North Gate, so that the North Gate offensive was suspended, and after seeing the clear gorgeous ballistics in the cloudy sky, the demon army outside the East Gate began to move.
Li Yang took a deep breath, looked out of the city with sharp eyes, raised the Pingyang-made rifle in his hand, and shouted: "The devil is coming!" Fight to the death! ”
