Chapter 406: The Verge

There were many arrows, bows and strings, and the ancient stone city had a nervous look.

The leader of the ancient stone city stood at the front of the city wall, holding the hilt of the long sword at his waist with one hand, and holding the city wall around him with the other, the busyness of the people around him did not affect him at all, and he was the only idler in the entire ancient stone city.

But is he really an idler, no, just look at the people who keep running behind him to report to him, although he doesn't move a step, but he knows every step of action all the time.

"Commander, the crossbow team is in place......"

"Commander, the gun-wielding team is ready......"

"Commander, the armor team is ready......"

When he heard this command, the regimental leader did not make a sound.

Until, "Report to the head of the group, the demonic beast is still a mile away from us." ”

Only then did the regimental commander say his own words: "Are the messengers out, and they must tell the rear of the situation here." ”

"Back to the commander, the messengers have been dispatched, but, commander, can we alone resist these demonic beasts?" asked a commander beside the commander in a low voice.

The regiment leader glanced at this commander, sighed, looked up at the demonic beast that was running in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Swear to protect it to the death!"

"Report to the head of the group, the demonic beast is less than two hundred meters away from us!"

The regimental commander took a deep breath at this time. A hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he commanded loudly: "All prepare and swear to protect the ancient stone city." Bow and crossbow ready, shoot me hard. ”

As the regiment commander's order was given, the soldiers below began to get busy urgently.

"Thirty-five degree angles, projectiles!"

All the crossbow soldiers on the northern wall of the ancient stone city raised the crossbow arrows in their hands together and released them at the same time. The sky-piercing bolts soared into the sky.

As soon as all kinds of demonic beasts ran into a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, they were shot into their bodies by batches of crossbow arrows falling from the sky, and some of them were directly shot through their bodies and nailed to the ground by powerful crossbow arrows.

But the demonic beasts that came later did not stop because of these small losses, and continued to run in the direction of the city wall one after another.

"Forty-five degree angles, projectiles!"

"Open the crossbow for me. Let me go!" roared the captain.

A huge city crossbow was pushed to the front, and the soldiers behind began to load the crossbow arrows, each of which was more than five meters long, and after the crossbow arrows were placed, each soldier squad began to pull the bowstring of the city crossbow, and almost at the same time, the crossbow arrows were pulled, and then the commander shouted loudly: "Release!"

The huge crossbow strings were released, and each bolt shot out of the walls as if it were carrying a thunderbolt.

If ordinary crossbow arrows only cause small damage to the monsters. Then the city crossbow is the life-urging weapon of the monster, and each crossbow arrow will take the lives of three to five monsters at the same time.

At this distance of one hundred and fifty meters, the corpses of the demonic beasts were already everywhere, but these demonic beasts seemed to have been stimulated, they were not afraid of death, and they did not stop running forward, even if there were some demonic beasts that had not yet died, they would be trampled to death under their hooves.

The city crossbow is very powerful. But after all, there are too few, and the reload speed is relatively slow. The distance between the Demonic Beast and the city wall disappeared after losing a large number of Demonic Beasts and a large number of crossbow arrows.

When the first monster approached the city wall, it used its bouncing and claw advantages to fight its way up the city wall.

Although the Ancient Stone City was only an acropolis on the Maginot Line, the height of the city wall still reached thirty meters, and it was a demonic beast of less than three levels. The bounce height is only about ten meters, so the soldiers still have time to fight back.

But don't forget, this time it wasn't one Warcraft that invaded, but thousands of Warcraft herds, while they blocked a Warcraft. There will be other monsters coming up the walls from other directions.

Seeing that the monster was already approaching, the regiment commander shouted: "The gun-wielding team stepped forward, stop them for me, and can't let them come up!"

At this time, the spear-wielding team behind stepped forward one after another, taking the place of the original bow and crossbow team, and stabbed some of the demonic beasts that were about to pick up the city wall.

The demonic beasts that fell off the city wall will also fall down with some other demonic beasts that are about to be picked up, and the demonic beasts that fall off the city wall will either break their bones and tendons or be trampled to death by other demonic beasts, causing a lot of damage.

But this also provided convenience for the demonic beasts behind, and the accumulated corpses stood on tiptoe to a very high ladder, providing assistance for the demonic beasts that were on the city wall behind.

The level of Warcraft is not very high, most of them are below the third level, if it is other times, the average low-level swordsman can deal with it lightly, but now when facing a piece of Warcraft, don't say low-level swordsmen, even intermediate swordsmen have no way.

The regiment commander cut a demonic beast that was on the city wall into two pieces with a sword, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers, all resist me, don't let a demonic beast come up, come here, go and notify the escort team, let them come up for me!"

"Commander, do you really want to move the convoy?" whispered a man next to the regimental commander, who was neither a soldier nor a commander, but he had always been by the captain's side, because he was the leader of the convoy.

The escort team is the exclusive guard of this regiment commander, these soldiers are just ordinary people, and generally the better ones are also first-level swordsmen, and the lowest level of the members of the escort team is also a first-level swordsman, like a second-level swordsman, and a third-level swordsman is also a swordsman, although the number is not large, but the strength is strong, they are the head of the protection group, usually as a law enforcement team, they generally do not act lightly, and this time the head of the regiment is going to launch them, which shows the strictness of the matter.

After receiving the order from the regiment commander, the escort team quickly rushed to the city wall, at this time, the city wall was already miserable, and some unstoppable demonic beasts had already gone up to the city wall.

The Guardian Team joined the battle at the first time, and when facing these powerful Monsters, ordinary soldiers may need three or five to face one Monster, while the members of the Guardian Team can face one Monster alone, and some stronger ones can help others.

It was also because of this that the situation was temporarily controlled, which made the attack of the Demon Beast be slowed down.

But in the face of a steady stream of demonic beasts, although the people in the escort team were good, they were only at the low-level swordsman level, and losses soon occurred.

The regiment commander took the lead at this time, in the front position, looking at the fallen soldiers and members of the escort team beside him, his heart was dripping blood, these were his brothers who were born and died, and now they fell by their own side, but they were powerless.

The long sword in his hand has become heavy, but the head of the regiment does not dare to stop, the long sword is waved, blocking the demonic beasts that come up, if it is an ordinary war, this captain may choose to surrender after seeing such a huge loss, however, this is not an ordinary war, this is a war between humans and demonic beasts, if the human race is defeated, then there is no surrender, what awaits is extinction and death.

"Brothers, no matter what, you can't let the Demon Beast take a step forward, our rear is our family, do you want your family to be harmed by the Demon Beast?I won't let my family be harmed, I will fight here until the last moment, are you willing to accompany me?" the group leader's hysterical voice spread throughout this section of the city wall.

"Yes!" The soldiers were also encouraged after hearing such impassioned words from the regiment commander, and their momentum was also raised.

Every soldier who is not dead will do his best to inflict the greatest damage on the monster, even if he can't stand up, he must use his body to firmly hold the monster and provide opportunities for others.

However, because of the difference in numbers, the monsters have begun to climb the city wall, occupy half of the city wall, and continue to advance, while the human race has lost many lives in the continuous retreat, if it continues, the human race will only have the fate of failure.

Is it true that human beings are inferior to Warcraft? Is this really the greatest disaster for humans? Can humans survive this difficulty? And I didn't think why Warcraft would invade humans for no reason, and what was hidden in it? All of this is a mystery! (To be continued......
