Chapter 491: Siege
The Orc troops launched a major attack, and all the tribes rushed towards the human Maginot Line, and all kinds of Tiger Clansmen, Leopard People, Lizard People, etc., all ran towards the side of the defensive line, and the human ones also launched their own defenses and counterattacks.
When the orc troops were not far from the city wall, the human magicians had already prepared their magic, and when the general of the army gave the order, the magic cast by these magicians flew towards the orcs as if they were off the line.
The orcs watched the magic of humans fall overwhelmingly, relying on the strength of their bodies, they still kept running forward, only to dodge when they encountered magic that they could not resist.
But there are too many human magics, and no one knows which one is the most powerful, so although the beasts rely on their strong ** and evasion ability, they still leave many corpses.
Soon the orcs attacked to the moat outside the human defense line, such a wide moat is not something that ordinary orcs can cross, they can only wade through the water, but this gives humans a chance to fight back, and the human magician launched an attack more violently, and many orcs died in the moat, because the river water of this moat is not fixed, but flows down from the mountains in the distance, so the corpses of these orcs are directly taken away by the river water of the moat after they die, but because the orcs have died too much, and some of the orc corpses are heavier, they can only be dragged slowly, and the orcs behind the guide can step on the corpses in front and crawl over。
The distance between the two armies is not far, coupled with the rapid speed of the beasts, and soon the beasts have come to the bottom of the city wall, although the city wall is very high, ordinary people may really have no way to such a high city wall, but the beasts ignore these, directly stretch out their claws to grab the city wall and climb up, the sharp claws directly grabbed into the city wall, drawing a deep trace, and therefore fixed the body of the beast on the city wall, so the beast clan climbed up with all four limbs at the same time.
Looking at the climbing beasts under the city walls, a general who was commanding immediately ordered: "Hot oil!"
After receiving the order, the human soldiers on the city wall immediately carried out large barrels from behind, which were already boiling hot oil, one every few meters, and poured them on the beasts who were climbing under the city wall.
The hot oil went straight down, and some of it was poured directly on the body of the beasts, although the beasts had hard scale armor or thick fur, but they still couldn't stop the hot oil that came to their faces, and the directly scalded body shook violently, let out a terrible scream, fell from the city wall, and fell directly with other beasts who had not climbed up below, and smashed on the ground, all of which were broken bones and tendons.
There were several large barrels of hot oil in each position, and in less than a moment, they were all poured out, and the orcs below who were doused with hot oil twitched like prawns, and then the magic of the human beings fell on the orcs, and the sound disappeared immediately.
But after all, there is only these hot oils, and the number of orcs is very large, after the first batch of orcs were wiped out, the fierce orcs in the back continued to attack humans.
And at this time, the commander of the human race also gave other orders: "Rolling wood!"
A huge round solid wood with a diameter of more than one meter and a length of more than five meters was lifted out from behind, and threw it down without hesitation at the beast clan that was still climbing up below.
The height of the city wall, coupled with the weight of the huge round solid wood, fell from the sky and smashed directly into the body of the beast clan, a sound of broken bones sounded, blood splashed everywhere, and each huge solid wood could bring down two or three beasts, which also showed the number of beasts.
However, the weight of the solid wood was too heavy, the quantity was not very large, and it was more time-consuming to use, so soon the troops of the beast clan pounced again.
"Falling stones!" After seeing the orcs attack again this time, the general ordered again.
This time it's relatively simple, a person smashed a stone against the orcs under the city, and some two people carried one, but it didn't take long to find that these falling rocks were not as big as the previous ones that hurt the orcs, and there were a lot of these falling rocks, but the weight and volume were far inferior to the previous rolling logs, so the damage was also very small, and some of the falling rocks were directly waved aside by the beasts with their arms, which did not cause any impact at all.
It's just that not long after the battle began, the orcs had already suffered a lot of casualties, and of course the high-level of the orcs also saw it, so the orcs changed their way of fighting.
The orcs dispatched a group of low-level sacrifices, the level of these sacrifices is very low, equivalent to the level of low-level magicians of humans, but what can be used is not magic, but spells that are more troublesome than magic.
These low-level beast sacrifices walked to the middle of the beast attack force, and these attacking troops walked directly past the side of these sacrifices, and each beast that ran past the sacrifice would be a little different from before, because these beast sacrifices had already used their spells on these beast troops.
These orc sacrifices will only use some blessings and weakness, paralysis, etc., of course, the blessing is to bless their own beast troops, every beast soldier who is blessed by the spell has a certain increase in speed and attack power, and the weakness and paralysis and so on are for humans, these beast sacrifices apply weakness and paralysis to the weapons attacked by these beast soldiers, as long as the human soldiers are attacked, they will be weakened and paralyzed, thereby reducing the strength of humans.
The melee attack force of the beast clan, although it has not yet reached the city wall, is trying to continue to attack in order to get close to the human race, but the long-range troops can already exert their power, most of the weakness and paralysis of the beast clan are applied to the weapons of these long-range troops, although the human defense is good, but it is inevitable that there will be some omissions, these long-range troops, will directly break through these omissions, attack the human troops, and as long as there is a gap, you can use this to open more gaps, so as long as you can't prevent the attack of the long-range troops, then the human casualties will only increase。
And after the increase and weakness of this batch of beast sacrifices, the beasts have a certain effect compared to the previous attack, but they are still lacking, just relying on these It is difficult to attack the human city wall in a short period of time, and as long as the human race defends closely, the attack of the beast clan will only be fruitless, and it will also make its troops suffer casualties in vain, so there must be a solution.
