Chapter 113: Heavy Artillery Opens the Way (2)

"Stop, attack the city" Haigl saw that the walls of the stone city were already cracked, and as many as two dozen cannonballs were sunk deep in the walls, like candles in the wind. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"General, are you going to send troops now?"

"Do you think this stone city is our goal for this time into the Plains of Solitude?" asked Hagel rhetorically.

"No, General"

"Then don't waste time, the three major divisions of the oasis are only building this defense line here to hold us back, send troops, and capture it before the sun goes down"

Receiving the order, the human army immediately marched.

A number of siege steel engineering vehicles were pushed by the soldiers to attack the orc's stone city.

Behind the siege engines were a squad of shield-wielding soldiers and musketeers, and if they were able to climb the walls, the orcs would suffer a huge blow.

......

"Luganf, the humans are attacking the city, let's rush out and fight them!" The sentry at the head of the city ran down the city wall and reported what had just happened to Luganf, who was resting in Lishi City.

"No, we are sitting in this stone city, and we must not go out to fight them at this time" Luganfu shook his head: "We must stop the human soldiers who climb up to the top of the city, and wait until the sun goes down, and then we will go out of the city to give them some color"

The two parties have coincidentally established the same point in time.

Before the sun goes down, humanity will conquer this orc stone city.

After the sun goes down, the orcs are going to counterattack the human army outside the city.

"Charge!" Under the extremely wilted spear throwing of the orc thrower, the human team came to the city wall very easily, only a few soldiers were killed and wounded, and dozens of steel siege engines crashed into the city wall, shaking the crumbling city wall that had been blown by heavy artillery shells and shaking off a lot of stone fragments.

A ladder stretched from the top of the siege that could be used by two people at the same time, all the way to the head of the stone city, and the human soldiers with shields immediately climbed the ladder with a shield in one hand and the other to climb the city wall, and the musketeers followed behind the shield soldiers, clearing them of the orc warriors who wanted to throw stones down the wall.

"Can't let a human soldier come up!" Luganf somehow came over again, shouting with a large iron sword, and a group of orcs scurried after him, for fear that something would happen to Luganf.

There were a lot of watermelon-sized stones piled up on the city wall, and the orcs grabbed them one by one and threw them outside the city wall, regardless of whether they hit anyone or not.

Sometimes, however, orcs lose their precious lives by a human musketeer for poking their heads out of the walls.

The human orcs have their own losses, and the situation is stalemate for a while, those humans can't climb the walls of the stone city, and the bricks prepared by the orcs are also about to bottom out.

The sun slowly set over the hill in the battle between the two sides, and the sky that had been dusk gradually became a little darker.

On the skyline, only a small piece of the sun is still visible in the sky, and the crimson glow is the only color in the sky.

Silently, Haigel pulled out the golden lion sword hanging from his waist, and the golden lion on the sword seemed to be silently roaring at Haigel.

"Just a stone city in the wasteland makes you so difficult to deal with, and you're still the elite army of Maran?" said Haigl.

"General, the orcs are too difficult to defend and our weapons are simply useless"

"Go and use the dragon flame cannon brought out this time, you must attack it before the sun goes down, otherwise once the sun disappears, the entire desolate plain will fall into endless darkness, and the orcs will definitely choose to go out of the city to attack us at that time" As an experienced general of Maran, Hagel's thoughts were immediately seen through by him.

"Dragon Flame Cannon...... General, that consumption is too great, didn't you say that you have to go to the oasis to use it?"

"There's no need to care about this, use it now, after breaking through this orc defense, the entire wasteland will enter the territory of the Maran Empire, and we only need to besiege the oasis next."

The Dragon Flame Cannon sounds imposing, but it's actually just an accessory that can be attached to the heavy cannon, which is a cannon muzzle made in the shape of a dragon's head, and the whole body is painted in dazzling red, and the two eyeballs of the dragon's head are extravagantly decorated with two fist-sized emeralds.

The entire Dragon Flame Cannon was very heavy, and it was installed on the muzzle of the heavy cannon by more than a dozen soldiers, and suddenly the appearance of the cannon became hideous, and a red dragon head was fiercely aimed at the position of the orc stone city.

I saw a few soldiers bring the kind of iron balls that were used as cannonballs before, but this time they didn't directly stuff the cannonballs into the barrels, but groped around on the iron balls for a while, and pieces of iron were dug out of the iron balls, revealing dozens of hexagonal holes that were sunken.

Two magicians in magician's robes brought two suitcases made of sterling silver, and in front of everyone, the two magicians opened the suitcases, revealing the neatly arranged red hexagonal crystal inside.

"What an abundance of fire elementals," the two magicians couldn't help but praise, and in their reluctant eyes, they shoved the crystals into the pits in the iron ball.

After a while, the entire iron ball was inserted.

"Alright" One of the mages nodded, and the human soldiers lifted the iron ball and stuffed it into the heavy cannon.

The dragon mouth of the Dragon Flame Cannon swallowed this iron ball stuffed with Huoyuan crystals, and the entire dragon head suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light, as if it was about to come back to life.

"The Dragon Flame Cannon is ready," shouted the soldier in control of the heavy artillery, his right hand already pressed on the board machine, ready to fire at any moment, and at this time, the sun was only a little afterglow on the horizon.

"Launch!"

After receiving the order from Haigel's side, the soldier immediately pressed the plate machine, and saw that the entire dragon head of the dragon flame cannon was full of fire, and it really ignited a scorching flame, and a red ball of light lit up from the dragon's mouth.

"Whew!"

In an instant, a pillar of red light rushed out of the mouth of the Dragon Flame Cannon, and crashed into the orc's stone city at a speed faster than the sound.

Each crystal on the iron ball melted into liquid in the friction with the air, enveloping the entire iron ball, and the iron ball was like a meteorite, and it hit the walls of the stone city without hindrance.

At this moment, the sun completely disappeared into the sky, and the desolate plain was also plunged into invisible darkness at the same time, and the only thing everyone could see was the scorching cannonball that erupted from the Dragon Flame Cannon.

"Boom!"

The flames splashed in all directions, the sound was monstrous, the smoke was billowing out, and the screams of the orcs rang out among the orcs, while the human side could not see what the bottom of the situation was, so they could only stop in place and watch the firelight on the other side of the stone city.

When the dust settled, the situation of the stone city was finally displayed in front of everyone's eyes, only to see that the front of the stone city was hit by the dragon flame cannon on the city wall, a huge crack of hundreds of meters long, the broken boulder was still burning with inextinguishable flames, as the only light in this darkness.

I don't know how many orc corpses were scattered among the rubble, and there were even stumps and broken bodies, and an orc with only the upper body left kept howling in the ruins, looking at his lower body in disbelief, but it didn't take long for him to die from excessive blood loss.

The city is broken!(To be continued.) )
