"Shield soldiers step forward, tortoiseshell formation!" Jiashi ordered again.

Compared to the attack power, the defense of the 34th Legion, a crossbow legion, is still too low.

They don't have any defense bonuses in their talents, and their only defense comes from the leather armor on their bodies.

Even ordinary arrows can kill them instantly.

At this time, it shows how important the cooperation between multiple arms is.

Especially the archery and crossbow legion, if it does not have extremely high mobility ability, it must have other legions to block disasters.

"Wow!"

The sound of heavy footsteps trampling on the earth, and the steps in unison shook the earth as if it were trembling.

Following Jiashi's order, the commanders of the two auxiliary legions each ordered the commander of a thousand men to lead a thousand shield corps to provide a frontal defense for the thirty-fourth legion.

The other two 1,000-man shield teams were divided into left and right, ready to guard against surprise attacks, and were ready to be drawn to supplement the front row.

The soldiers of the 34th Legion, divided into five teams, each commanded by a thousand commanders, advanced slowly, crouched down to shoot arrows, got up and advanced, and there was a scene of ups and downs.

Meanwhile, above the city of Ellev, Kane ordered the soldiers in the fortress and watchtower to fight back with his command.

Slightly sparse arrows descended from the tower.

"Dingding!"

Although the arrows were few, they were very fierce, and they hit the large shield of the auxiliary legion hard.

The soldiers of the auxiliary legion are all mountain people temporarily recruited by the Empire, and their military training is very unqualified compared to the regular army of the Empire.

Under the bombardment of arrows, some soldiers began to twist and twist, and some even some soldiers flinched.

"Ahh

A young soldier with a large shield in his hand, in fear, was struck by an arrow from a high place, and slammed into the ground.

The young soldier had no idea that death would suddenly befall him.

"Goo-go ”

The young soldier's eyes widened violently, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.

Patches of blood flowed from his body, instantly staining the entire ground beneath him.

He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but only strings of blood foamed from his mouth, and he could not say a word.

Then he struggled slightly, but his body was firmly pinned to the ground by the arrow, and he could not move.

The group of soldiers was still moving forward, and the soldiers who were close to him only glanced at it slightly, and continued to move forward under the military order.

Not many people noticed that a soldier had left this world.

On the battlefield, life and death are only in the blink of an eye, and no one can be sure that they will live forever.

No one has the luxury of grieving in the midst of war, and all officers do is encourage their soldiers, to be brave and diligent, or to be extremely calm.

"Soldiers, forward! forward!"

"For the glory of the Empire!"

"All traitors should fall into the abyss!"

"The gods will give them the deepest curse in the world!"

The officers preached in the procession, inspiring the soldiers.

"It's a mistake!" Ryan said helplessly, looking at the battle outside the city.

"The attack was so secure that we had almost no chances. ”

"Those 500 soldiers don't even have a chance to retreat. Watson looked at the situation outside the city and said softly.

There were 3,000 guards in the city of Ellev, and 500 soldiers were assigned to snipe at various fixed locations outside the city.

These locations are intertwined, almost all of which have overlapping locations, forming a single attack network capable of costing any enemy who comes to attack them with blood.

Even before coming to Ellev City, before the 34th Legion had completed its training, Jiashi had been thinking about how to disrupt this attack network.

After thinking about it, there is no good way, so I can only fill it with human lives, dismantle them one by one, and kill all the soldiers on them.

Then, with the siege equipment, it crossed the cross-defense network, paved the moat, and reached the city walls.

The Imperial Army was unstoppable, and after leaving behind just over a hundred corpses, the Imperial Army had successfully advanced under the moat.

The soldiers of the city of Ellev have even begun to attack the soldiers of the Empire.

Behind the Imperial Army, there are shattered watchtowers.

At the end of the tower, there are arrow holes, and blood flows down from the watchtower.

Under the city of Ellev, it is already a mess!

......

Jiashi looked at the battlefield, turned his head and said, "Let the soldiers retreat." ”

"Pushing the siege equipment up, the soldiers of the auxiliary legion began to change their equipment and prepare to climb the city walls. ”

As Jiashi's order was given, all the Imperial soldiers began to slowly retreat.

Only the sword and shield soldiers began to move forward, they have been recuperating for a long time, and they will be the main force in today's siege battle.

Gasmo counted the results of the previous battle.

The casualties on the side of Ellev City were probably close to 500, and the casualties on their side were more than 100.

It seems that the other party is still protected by a fortress and so on.

In fact, this is not the case.

The Imperial army has a large shield, and it advances in a tortoiseshell formation, and when it comes to defense, it is no worse than the other side.

Moreover, on the side of the Imperial Army, it was suppressed by the rain of arrows of the 34th Legion, so it was able to get the current results.

In that short period of time, the 34th Legion fired 100,000 arrows!

That's a full four rounds of salvos!

The frantic salvo almost crushed the opponent's head, which is why such a result was achieved.

But Jiashi understands that in the future, at least for a short time, there will be no such rain of arrows.

And the arrows need to be recovered, otherwise the arrows carried by the army may not be able to support the war to the end.

This is also a huge drawback of Michelle's repeater, which is too dependent on the number of arrows and is very expensive!

"Let the 34th Legion rest first, and then we need them to cover for the battle to the city. Jiashi said to the adjutant.

"Distribute the beef. The soldiers needed to replenish their strength. ”

"Also, prepare a drink, which I will give to the warriors who ascend the city. ”

To fight a war, it is logistics, at least there must be enough food and grass.

Otherwise, no matter how strong the army is, if it is hungry, it will become a soft-footed shrimp and be vulnerable.

Especially the ace legion of the 34th Legion, the requirements for food are even higher, and the best food is meat and super food.

Otherwise, it may not be able to withstand their consumption.

Just eight hundred meters outside of Elev City, the Imperial army began to replenish its strength in waves.

Although it is dry food, after soaking it in water, it is still very delicious, and even the fragrance slowly wafts to the city of Ellev.

The soldiers couldn't help but drool.
