Chapter 118: Bombing
"Bah~" The musket body sounded again, and the defenders on the city wall who were busy filling with heavy equipment under the kick of the officer, suddenly fell a large piece, and an officer hiding behind the shield was set on fire by several muskets, and the shield with a layer of steel plates was inlaid on the outside, and failed to protect his master, and the officer fell helplessly after being shot twice.

Every heavy equipment on the city wall was littered with the corpses of the defenders, and after this wave of gunfire, the loaded soldiers completely collapsed, threw everything they had, and fled to both sides.
"Go back, give me all back, the commander of the corps has an order, leave the guard without permission and kill on the spot. The military judge of the Northern Legion led the gendarmes with their swords to block the way of these routs, and ruthlessly preached the cruel battlefield military law.
These fearless soldiers were in a dilemma, but when the fastest few unlucky ones were killed as an example, they could only reluctantly turn around and run towards the cruel and bloody battle position.
Unfortunately, before they could run back a few paces, the urging muskets rang out again, and these routs, who had barely raised a little courage, fell in large numbers again, and now the routs had completely lost all their courage.
Even if the military judge led the gendarmes to kill hundreds of deserters, and even each deserter was brutally beheaded, the military judges and the gendarmes were a little frightened, and they still failed to drive these routs back, but were disrupted by the routs.
"Blackie is now, the bombing begins. A sound resounded through the battlefield, this was the voice of the little dwarf, at this time Niu Dali did not take the lead in climbing the ladder, but was guarded by several minotaurs with large shields, and shrank at the foot of the city wall.
However, Niu Dali was not afraid of death, but held the dragon's teeth in both hands, frantically digging the corner of the city wall, and dug a big hole in a large water tank in a short time, but Niu Dali still did not stop, continued to dig hard, and had the posture of digging the entire wall.
A violent dragon roar sounded, and Charlotte, the commander of the Northern Legion, looked out, and then he saw the fattest and most violent black dragon he had ever seen in his life.
This round fat dragon, in addition to its wings, is actually covered with heavy steel armor, and the armor pieces are all half-meter-long spikes, such a fat body and such a heavy load, this armored fat dragon is especially flying like a lightning.
The Legion Commander Marquis Charlotte, the recognized number one master of the Northern Legion, the twenty-first level divine knight who stepped into the legendary realm in just one step, could not rise to the courage to fight this fat dragon who was three levels lower than him in rank.
Charlotte is not stupid, the battle level is not absolutely accurate, countless battle examples say that the powerful knight was turned over by a perverted opponent who was a few levels lower, and that armored fat dragon is definitely a pervert among metamorphoses, and its owner, that little dwarf is also the best of metamorphoses.
Hiding behind a large number of heavily armed guards, the Legion Elder roared, "All the rangers give me the fat dragon that fire, right away." ā
The archers on the city wall, the strong crossbowmen shot the armor-piercing arrows in their hands at the fat dragon that was about to fly into the sky, but even the armor-piercing arrows shot by the crossbowmen, shot on the fat dragon's desperately thick external steel deck, the best results could only shoot through half of the steel armor, and finally filled the steel deck like thatch.
"Heavy trebuchets, ballistas, why don't you fire them?" Charlotte was furious, a little panicked in her heart.
In fact, as early as after the Orc Empire issued the convening order, he received this information from the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Roland Empire.
Charlotte remembered that she was so confident that she sent three reports to Roland IX in succession, telling His Majesty that the Northern Legion was strong, that the fortresses of Fort Blackstone were impregnable, and that even the reserve troops of Goa Province did not need to be called up, so as not to waste the Empire's financial resources.
Sure enough, as he expected, His Majesty Roland IX was very happy when he saw the report, and praised Charlotte very much.
But to his surprise, this year's orcs are unexpectedly strong, and the sophisticated weapons and armor are stronger than the standard armaments of the Northern Legion, not to mention that the orcs' siege equipment is now completely pressing the city defense equipment on the city wall.
"If the Blackstone Fort fortress is breached by these orcs...... Thinking of this, Charlotte shuddered, then his best ending is to die here, and the entire Roland Empire can withstand the wrath of His Majesty Emperor Roland IX, and there is absolutely no name in it.
The grief-stricken Legion Elder turned his head to look at his ballistas and trebuchets, hoping that these heavy weapons would be acceptable to injure the fat dragon or force it out of the city walls, but he almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood when he looked at it.
There was not a single living person on the trebuchet and ballista in which he had high hopes, except for corpses strewn all over the ground, and the few remaining operators had already fled far from the powerful muskets of the orcs, and by the way, the military judges and gendarmes who had maintained order were staggered.
Then the armored fat dragon finally arrived above the city wall, and the scorching dragon breath began to wreak havoc on the city wall, and a dragon breath came down, causing at least more than 100 people to be killed and injured, and what made the legion commander even more heartbroken was that there were still two high-level mages among the more than 100 people who were killed and injured.
The magic shield of the senior mage is under the dragon's breath, fragile like a blank piece of paper, the dragon's breath arrives, the shield breaks, and in the end, all that is left is two charred people.
Compared to the armored fat dragon that looked extremely violent, the thirty-two horned eagle beast air cavalry that flew over immediately seemed so elegant and harmless, the horned eagle beast gently instigated its wings, gliding a beautiful trajectory in the air, and then flew to the sky above the city wall, throwing down dozens of iron balls weighing several catties.
The iron ball thrown from a height of several hundred meters, if an unlucky egg is unfortunately smashed, it will definitely not be better, but compared to the terrifying dragon breath of the armored fat dragon, it is completely harmless, so the soldiers of the Northern Legion completely ignore these horned eagle beast air cavalry.
Leaving all the attention to the armored fat dragon, could it be that its large size caused it to store more dragon breath?
An iron ball fell from the sky and smashed at the feet of an archer, and the archer, who was almost smashed off the soles of his feet, looked at the iron ball happily and found that there was a very short rope burning outside the iron ball weighing several catties, which was about to burn to the end.
As if remembering something terrible, the archer screamed, "No! this iron ball is ......."
Before he could finish his call, the iron ball exploded, it was the 'Aerial Bomb One' specially made by the Iron Collar for the Air Cavalry, each weighing more than twice as powerful as the one used by the Hog-headed grenadiers.
Thirty-two horned eagle beast air cavalry lit the bomb with all their might, and then threw it at the city wall, and in a short time, the defenders on the entire city wall suffered countless casualties, and they were completely blinded by the first bombardment.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, at least more than 200 orcs successfully climbed to the top of the city and successfully established a foothold.
"Great God of Light, I hope you will send down miracles to help your devout believers. A bomb exploded not far from the Legion Chief's side, and although the Legion Commander was fine, more than a dozen of his guards fell at once, and Charlotte had nothing to do with the cavalry in the sky at this time, so she could only pray helplessly.
Suddenly, the piercing golden bell rang, and the orcs, who were about to gain a foothold, retreated from the city like a tide, and retreated to their headquarters as if something terrible was about to happen.
Even the fat dragon and those nasty horned eagle beast air cavalry flapped their wings and flew high into the air.
