Chapter 328: Fortress Firepower

"I don't want to do anything else. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "Xiahe is a serious and authentic one. Snowvis was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Asra was joking.

"The patrol thing, it is really not necessary to do it, I have read the information, the undead must have invaded from the other world, there are too many types. There are no necromancers in this world, so you don't have a problem with that, right?"

Xia He nodded, it's not that there are no necromancers in this world, but the number is negligible.

These necromancers hide in hiding, studying the secrets of the soul.

"Your 3,000 people, can you cooperate these days?"

"Three thousand of His Highness's men. ”

"Before you left me, you were the only one who could command them except me, and no one else had the power to take my orders. So they are your people, the fortress has a magic channel, which can be used to attack temporarily, and when needed, I have about seven or eight thousand mobile troops on my side, and I have to go out and clear the circle. The main thing is that if the undead die outside, the pile will get higher and higher, which will affect the city defense, and you have to go out and clean it up. ”

Xia He thought for a while and said, "Then I want the equipment of these undead, as well as their soul fire." ”

"Yes, that's not a problem. You need resources now, and business over there at Cape Stormstorm is ruined, I can understand that. I'm going to leave you a big warehouse for stacking these things. ”

"Then thank you, Your Highness. ”

"When dealing with the undead, a warrior's spear is not easy to use, and the weather is cold, and it is difficult to fight with gloves. How about using a holstered war hammer or an axe, what do you think?"

"If you defend the city, it is still easy to use spears, and those who go out can indeed change their equipment. ”

"Then I'll arrange for someone to change the weapons of your people. ”

"Yes. ”

"Go to your quarters, there's a communication stone over there, and I'll usually let the herald go. ”

Xia He agreed, drank the hot soup, and returned to his station. The fortress is huge, like a small city. The 3,000 people of Xiahe occupied a fortress-like building, with separate playgrounds, storehouses, corrals, and so on.

Xia He didn't care about this, he summoned everyone over and said the order of the county king.

"How risky do you think it is to go out of the city to fight?" Xia He asked the twenty battle mages.

"Lord Earl, bones are piled up with bones, and no matter how high the walls are, it is useless. Sometimes going out of the city to kill is a necessary means. Wizard Ten said.

"Fighting out of the city is mainly to disrupt the rhythm of the enemy's attack. Master One replied.

"Yes, Lord Earl, Your Highness is not embarrassed by you. Wizard Two said the same.

Xia He nodded and said, "I know, it's just a dispatch of the airship, and the effect is better." ”

After he said this, he didn't think it was very accurate, the empire's airships, with weapons, were not as comprehensive as Shen Zhou. The power of the bombs dropped by the gods is almost catching up with the forbidden spell.

However, air strikes are still a particularly effective form of combat.

"Lord Earl, there is a limit to the frequency of the airship's dispatch, and Your Highness must hope that the magic furnace of the airship can be well rested. The number of releases won't be too much, and we'll have to fill the gap. ”

"Well, since everyone agrees, I'll come down. ”

The magicians were relieved, and although it was dangerous to go out to fight, the credit was much greater. According to the city to defend the city, not to mention the low merit, the responsibility is greater, and some people will be beheaded if they are defeated.

"But the scale of 200 people, going out is to send death, our 3,000 people, divided into three parts, only 1,000 at a time, take turns, everyone here, every time you want to go out, do you have any opinions?"

It was impossible for the magicians to object, Xia He himself and Medirli were in the house, and as the main general, they had to go out every time, and it was impossible for them to be lazy. Just now, everyone was still persuading the earl to accept the task of the county king, and now there is no excuse.

Xia He lassoed these magicians, and then sent a formation diagram, each attack, who was in front and who was behind, simplified instructions for various changes, and so on.

After these are sent, they will be rehearsed in the playground.

The soldiers were required to write down all the simplified instructions, which were characterized by the absence of a lexical structure with similar syllables, so as not to make a mistake on the battlefield.

The Woods Fortress continued to strengthen its defenses, and tall towers were erected in the center of the Magic Fortress, which were simply reinforced with metal. Large quantities of weapons and ammunition were distributed. Looking down from the fortress, plus the surrounding fortresses, Fort Woods itself becomes a large fortress.

If you want to attack a fortress, attack the fortress first, and the fortress cannon above will bombard it downward.

To attack the fortress, you have to climb up from the middle of the fortress and withstand the blows of the fortress on both sides.

However, the undead only arrived the next day, and the wind and snow continued, but it was much smaller, and under the gloomy sky in the distance, only a dense army of the undead could be seen, rushing towards the fortress, boundless.

Xia He also went to the head of the fortress, condescending, and the number of undead still made people feel hopeless.

Airplanes!

A fireball the size of a basin flew out of the fortress, and when it flew out of more than two hundred meters, it suddenly swelled and its speed suddenly increased. Then, after 800 meters, the fireball swelled again, and the speed increased explosively.

The second time it expanded, the diameter of the fireball was already more than thirty meters in size.

After the fire of the fortress cannon, many officers raised their alchemy binoculars. At 1,500 meters, the speed of the fireball more than doubled, and at the same time it expanded to a diameter of more than 80 meters.

"Can this thing grow?" Xia He asked the No. 1 mage beside him.

"Earl, the attack distance of the fortress cannon is best about ten miles, and the direct coverage area is five hundred meters in size, and the raw coal consumed for one launch is calculated in kilograms. ”

Five hundred meters of coverage!

Xia He compared his own flame-bursting stars, and knew that the power of the fortress cannon was terrifying. It's just that his own Flame Burst Star single body is more powerful, and this fortress cannon is an army killer.

If it weren't for its huge size, the need for a magic furnace, and the assistance of a complex magic array, I'm afraid this thing would be used a lot.

A few thousand catties of raw coal is nothing, it is cheaper than a handful of gemstones.

The fireball flew more than ten miles away, fell in the army of the undead, and was immediately cleaned up. The range of this fireball splash is extremely small, just controlled within a range of 500 meters, and the lethality of the splash is not much different from the center of the fireball.

This cannon hit a little farther, because the gunner tuned it not finely enough, the fortress had a total of twelve fortress cannons, and the rest slightly adjusted the magic array, and began to fire at the same time.

Xia He was surprised, the undead were dense, this fortress cannon fell, and thousands of undead fell and turned into ashes.

But under the fortress artillery, there will be no loot, it will be burned clean.

The consumption of raw coal is nothing, this thing is cheap, but the fortress cannon itself needs to be repaired, and the magic furnace and magic array cannot operate without damage.

"It's still a lot of skeletons, but it looks like the skeletons of some subspecies giants. Xia He looked at it for a while, and then he saw the clue. Among these undead, the largest number is all kinds of skeleton soldiers, including knights, shield battles, archers, and even more outrageous is that there are some skeletons that can fly, but it seems that they can't fly high.

The weather was bad, and many skeletons with bony wings simply walked on the ground.

"Lord Earl, there is no need to command such a large number. Unless a legendary powerhouse comes to attack a fortress like ours, even the zombie dragon can't come up. There are probably more than 100 magic cannons of all sizes, which are specially used for air defense. On the contrary, it is this kind of chaotic undead who rush up to the top of the river, which is the most troublesome. ”

Xia He was seen from the observation post, at the head of the city, many soldiers stood in the snow, and the commanders successively conveyed orders downward, asking the soldiers to attack one target in groups of five, giving priority to those with wings.

There are also magic ballistas in the stronghold, but the enemy has no chariots or similar mechanical devices, and is ordered to attack large creatures.

Among the undead, there was a kind of earthly beast, which was not of high rank, but it was more than twenty meters long.

After two rounds of shelling, the fortress began to rest, and it would take at least three minutes before it could be fired again. Xia He knew that the farther the attack, the longer the fortress cannon would need to rest.

"Let's go, let's go back and prepare. Xia He beckoned to the battle mage and left the observation post. Everyone once again saw the enemy clearly, because in the fortress, they were no longer as afraid as in the field, and they could calmly analyze the enemy's shortcomings.

After getting out of the city, the No. 1 mage said: "My lord, I and Guges both have epic realms, if you kill them, they can also protect your integrity, among these undead, there don't seem to be corrosive monsters or anything like that, they don't look so disgusting." Now that the wind and snow are heavy, and necromancy spells such as poisonous fog can't work, you can rest assured. ”

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about. Xia He smiled: "It's better to worry about other people, I can fly and won't be trapped by the army of the undead." ”

Xia He really didn't worry, his magic had already cooled down, and he could summon divine creatures again.

The Seraphim, for the undead, is a terrible nemesis.

The light of the gods shines on the undead, which is an irresistible poison.

"My lord, we don't worry too much, the demon deer is a powerful demonic beast, as long as the soul is not damaged, even if it hurts the heart, it will not die immediately, and it can run for more than ten miles. The flask of flame you gave us, we experimented, just releasing a wisp of fire, and the power is considerable. Isn't it a bit of a waste to kill the undead?"

"I'm worried that I'll take it back, right, forget it, I'll give it to you. If you are willing to invest, you can spend money to upgrade the level of the item, and you can usually repair it with repair liquid, which can be used for a long time, and you can have it for a long time. "Xia He is not stingy, he leads these magicians, and he takes the lion's share of military merits.

This is tantamount to borrowing chickens to lay eggs, and usually, no one will do this, he is tantamount to picking up cheap.

"How's that good......" The magicians looked embarrassed.
