Chapter 696: Minotaur

"Each stone thrower adjusts its own angle, the target is opposite the high platform, and five groups of shots in a row!" the knight commander on the miracle wall received the order at this time, and he shouted loudly.

All the catapult teams began to adjust the angle, these are professional catapult operators, almost every day is to practice the catapult, it can be said that they master the catapult more flexible than their own body.

It took only thirty seconds for the sixty stone throwers to be adjusted, and the huge round stones were loaded into the launchers, and with the inertia of the heavy objects on one side of the stone throwers, these half-meter diameter stone balls were thrown into the air.

The stone ball crossed an arc in the air, smashed heavily on the high platform, some smashed into the air, and then rolled and rushed down the gentle slope of the high platform, the minotaur in front of him held a shield and did not flinch, they roared wildly and used the shield in their hands to resist the stone ball.

When one minotaur falls, two minotaurs will be on top, and the huge impact of the stone ball also loses its impact after knocking down and crushing nearly ten minotaurs holding iron shields.

And some stone balls smashed directly on the minotaur holding the shield, causing even more harm, several minotaurs became a piece of flesh and blood on the spot, and after crushing several minotaurs to death, and then slammed into the orc stone throwing machine.

The orc stone thrower was broken by this collision, and several huge trees were broken, and the whole orc stone thrower began to crumble a little.

"Repair, repair!" With the shouts of a fox man behind the orc stone thrower, a dozen fox men rushed forward and re-reinforced the damaged orc stone thrower with wooden blocks and iron nails.

At the same time, an elite shield-wielding minotaur stepped forward to take the place of the dead minotaur, and the task of the minotaur was to protect the orc stone thrower and protect the fox people.

It is important to know that the wood used in the stone throwing machine has very strict requirements, some require hardness, some require flexibility, and they are all oversized trees to become wood.

The geographical location of the Orc Empire determines the scarcity of such oversized trees, and it costs a lot of money for these stone throwers, and because of the limited tree resources in the Empire, although it took people to cut down some wood in the most dangerous middle and high-level spirit beast areas in the Budapest Mountains, it is still far from enough to consume.

In the end, the Orc Empire was able to tear down all the wooden houses in a few cities, and this solved the problem of wood.

Even so, the range of these catapults did not reach the range of human treultomes, and this was the unfortunate decision to place the trebuchet at a distance of 250 meters.

"No, if we go on like this, all of our stone-throwing machines will be destroyed, hurry up to the city crossbow to suppress the miracle wall, and raise wolf smoke so that the other party can't aim!" General Gerald was very dissatisfied with the speed of the minotaur, but there was no way, he looked at the minotaur Carol and ordered.

"Yes, General!" replied Carol the Minotaur.

Soon the wolf smoke rose on the high platform, and the entire high platform was shrouded in wolf smoke, although the human stone thrower also destroyed six orc stone throwers, but the results of the next battle were not much, under the protection of the wolf smoke, the stone thrower, which was not very accurate, was all relying on luck to attack.

At this time, the minotaurs rushed to the high platform with the city crossbow, in order to be able to clearly know the location in the wolf smoke, these minotaurs have been trained for a long time.

Four powerful minotaurs can lift a city crossbow, and soon the stone ball of the human stone thrower has been erected, and almost the front of the high platform is occupied.

As the wolf smoke cleared, the first thing the knight commander on the miracle wall saw was the flying crossbow arrows, and he couldn't help shouting: "Pay attention to the crossbow arrows, counterattack!"

The timing of the crossbow arrows flying from the high platform was just right, just when the wolf smoke had just cleared, and there was no preparation on the miracle wall.

This round of forty crossbow arrows caused damage to five city crossbows above the Miracle Wall, minor damage to two stone throwers, and wounding a dozen knights.

In response to the orcs, countless crossbow arrows flew out, directly causing the death of hundreds of minotaurs, and the loss of more than a dozen crossbows.

There are still ten orc stone throwers in good condition, and the damaged stone throwers are being repaired by a group of foxes, and at this time the orc stone throwers are already in place, and they have begun to throw boulders at the miracle wall.

The accuracy of the stone thrower is like the luck of winning the lottery, both sides have to use the stone thrower to destroy the other party's stone thrower, and the stone used by the orc's stone thrower is not polished, although it causes stronger attack power, but it lacks continuous lethality.

At this time, the battle of the Miracle Wall has only reached the most dangerous time, the minotaurs do not care about life and death, once the minotaur dies in front, there will be a minotaur from the rear to replenish in time, and one of the city crossbows is destroyed, and there will be four strong minotaurs who will immediately send the new city crossbow to the high platform.

Between the high platform and the miracle wall, the stones and stone balls flew against each other, the crossbow arrows were constantly staggered in the air, from time to time the knights fell, the city crossbow was destroyed, the battle situation on the orc platform was even more tragic, and the minotaur sacrificed his life to protect the stone thrower.

And the long-range attack ability itself is weaker than that of humans, making the minotaurs a consumable on a high platform, and these most elite minotaurs fight each other with their lives against well-equipped humans.

Just as the two sides were attacking each other, a red fireball flew out of the sky above the white tent in the center of the orc battlefield and exploded in the air.

Tens of thousands of picklemen who received the signal rushed out from both sides of the platform, and they rushed towards the wall of miracles with ladders in hand.

These picklemen are all by-products of the countless Picklemen orcs, and the best of them have become the private armies of some high-level sacrifices, but more often than not, this kind of strength is not the top, but it is far superior to the ordinary orcs.

Now these Pickleknights have become the main force of the second batch of Miracle Wall Attack, and until this time, except for the orc sacrifice who used the lives of twenty black-robed sacrifices to consume the defensive circle energy of the miracle wall, the most powerful spell casting power of both sides has not been used.

And this second batch of Peak Knights is to test the limit of the defense of the human miracle wall, as long as the human wizard makes a move, then the orcs can know where the limit of the defense of those knights is.

And the mana of human wizards is limited, in this kind of war, the spells cast are limited, and now every time you cast a spell, then in the face of the most powerful impact of the orcs, there will be one less attack power.

The Peak Knights howled and rushed towards the Wall of Miracles, the corpses of their fellow tribe at their feet, they had never been so close to the top of the Wall of Miracles, they were the closest orcs had come to the top of the Wall of Miracles in thousands of years.

The ladder is made of bamboo, which is light and tough, and the most important thing is that there is a place in the Orc Empire that produces this kind of bamboo, so this kind of bamboo ladder is not valuable to the orcs, and it can be used as a consumable along with the Peak Knight.

"Attention, the orcs are attacking the city, and the bows and arrows are in a volley!" the knight commander yelled.

Arrows flew down from the Miracle Wall, and Pickleriders fell, but more Pickleriders rushed to the Miracle Wall with arrows on their heads, and they put the ladder on the ladder and began to climb up.

Every knight on the Wall of Miracles is a full knight, and they only need to defend for two hours at a time, so their fighting spirit is not saved, especially at this time.

As the fighting spirit on the knights' bodies flickered, the speed of the bow and arrow increased, and no knight could climb halfway before being killed by the arrow.

But the Peak Knight is still climbing upwards in a steady stream, and the human knight has also given the opposite high platform more opportunities to attack due to multiple downward attacks, which makes the casualties of the human knight begin to increase.

Hector and Manuel, the two human archers, were already tired by this time, and although they didn't need to wind up their arrows, each firing had to be carefully calculated, and both of them were already old, and this kind of battle was still too fierce for them.

However, the giant war city crossbow controlled by the two archers was still exerting a terrifying attack power, and with each attack here, on the high platform two hundred and fifty meters away, the city crossbow would be damaged.

The two of them had caused more Orc City Crossbow losses than all the other Human City Crossbows combined, but now their feet were shaking and their heads were covered in sweat.

The knight commander also saw the state of the two archers, but at this time he didn't dare to order the two archers to rest, because there were no rotating archers available on the human side, and if there were no archers to suppress the high platform opposite, then with the high platform on the opposite side constantly replenishing the city crossbow, there would be no limit to the damage to the miracle wall.
