Chapter Ninety-Five: Soldiers Descend on the City
The news coming back from the front is not an exaggeration, they are indeed under tremendous pressure. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If you look at it purely from the perspective of individual strength, this group of family private soldiers is slightly higher than the city guards, plus relying on the city wall defense, they have a height advantage of more than ten meters, and the opponent is just a wolf pack with a slightly more number than their own, theoretically speaking, there should not be a one-sided situation. However, there are some hidden factors that doom this defensive war to not end smoothly.
When the private soldiers first climbed the city wall, due to the distance and height difference, they could not see the particularity of the wolf group type, and looked at the less than 200 black wolves below, and the private soldiers did not pay attention to the enemy at all. Especially the low-level mercenaries who had begged for a living in the wilderness before, some of them had been in contact with black wolves, and had also killed many small groups of black wolves, knowing that the enemy's individual strength was worse than their own, under their propaganda, the private soldiers pointed and laughed at the wolves scattered in the distance, ridiculing their incompetence, as if their own side had won the battle.
But soon, the brutal truth slapped them in the face.
Under the orders of the rear command, the private soldiers reluctantly took out their bows and arrows from the armor box of the city wall, and casually launched a long-range attack on the wolves. In fact, they themselves knew that there was nothing wrong with the orders from the rear, and the best way to deal with the enemy who was running long distances was to constantly harass them, so that they could not bear the trouble and had to attack immediately. But in the eyes of the private soldiers, the enemy in front of them is used to prove their powerful concoctions, just about two hundred black wolves, one person can kill one or two casually, you can directly kill the enemy, what tactics to use, what need to consider whether to give the enemy time to rest.
Not only the private soldiers, but even a few children of the family who led the team, they actually thought so in their hearts, and they even secretly slandered Zhang Lu for making a fuss and wasting everyone's time, if it weren't for Rose and Zhang Lu opening with a strange killing scene at the beginning, and shocked everyone with their strength, I'm afraid these family children would not be so obedient to defend the whole team.
However, after all, the children of the family are a little more worried than the private soldiers, the private soldiers disobeyed the order, at most secretly ran out of the city, and continued to eat as private soldiers in another place, but the foundation of the children of the family is in the city, and they cannot and do not need to disobey the orders of their superiors for this little thing, so at their urging, the private soldiers had to lazily shoot the arrows on their bows, and the scattered arrows fell to the city.
"Hahaha, you've already shot two arrows, xx, haven't you eaten enough in the morning. "You can do it, you can't shoot as well as me." "You guys are serious, aim with your heart, so waste the city defense materials, be careful that the boss scolds you again." "Haha, what are you afraid of, it's not a waste of our own supplies. "Ha, I shot, I hit both arrows, yes, I'm better than all of you. "Fuck off, there is no blood in the two arrows, you don't use the source energy at all, you know how to speculate and play all day long." ”
Similar dialogues kept appearing between the private soldiers, and everyone regarded it as an extremely interesting game, and they had a lot of fun.
However, the wolves are obviously not very happy, no matter who they are, there are always arrows shooting down on their heads when they are resting, and even if those arrows are not accurate, they may not be very happy as targets. So, Zhang Lu's purpose was finally achieved, and the wolves, who could not be disturbed, finally gave up resting, and without any command, suddenly stood up almost at the same time, raised their heads and let out a neat and short howl.
With the howl of the wolf, the private soldiers' bodies shook instinctively, and they didn't know why, but a chill swept over their bodies, making them even laugh quieter.
"Whew~~~~", another neat wolf howl, the wolf howl was extraordinarily long, and at the same time casting a shadow on the hearts of those private soldiers on the city wall, it also sounded the horn of attack.
With the howl of the attack, the sparse wolves quickly gathered together, like a black carpet, clinging to the ground and rushing towards the city wall.
The wolves approached, and the privates finally saw the wolves clearly.
The wolves that appeared below the city were each fierce and strong, and even the thinnest one was larger than the small group of black wolves that the soldiers had seen a hundred kilometers away. It is not difficult to guess that the wolf king has selected the most powerful elite in the entire clan as his personal guard, and as for the five or six hundred black wolves on the distant battlefield, they can only be regarded as bait and outcasts.
In this era, in order to ensure the abundance of food and to prevent the provocation of demons, many social predators will choose to launch a suicide attack on another powerful group when the group is too large, regardless of losses, which not only reduces the number of the group, but also obtains a large amount of food. Obviously, today's Damask City plays such a role, with the abundant side used to consume lives, and the almost defenseless city used to obtain food.
Therefore, even if the individual strength of these private soldiers is higher than that of the city guards, the individual strength of the enemy they face is not inferior, and it is absolutely impossible to crush the opponent with individual strength.
The privates finally couldn't laugh, and the closer the wolves got, the more ugly their faces became. The ordinary black wolf and the muscular fur black wolf with shiny teeth and sharp claws are completely two creatures, and in their eyes, the latter is simply like a group of monsters.
"Shoot, shoot. On the city wall, someone finally reacted and shouted loudly, "Hurry up, it's impossible for them to jump on the city wall more than ten meters high, we have the city wall as a cover, no matter how strong they are, don't be afraid, shoot them at a distance and don't let them get close." ”
This time, the private soldiers finally got serious, and every time they opened their bows, they were filled with source energy, and no one dared to laugh and mess around anymore. However, the private soldiers found that archery on the battlefield was completely different from peacetime, the enemy had been moving at high speed, the time was limited, aiming was useless, and only a range of coverage shooting could pose a threat to the enemy, but the private soldiers did not have the concept of a range of long-range strikes at all, and for a time they could only shoot blindly one arrow at a time, and the arrows in the air collided with each other in a mess.
They were in disarray, but the wolves were not chaotic at all, they lined up in a neat line, and continued to rush forward at their original speed, even if there was a thick wall in front of them, the wolves did not slow down, as if they were about to crash through the wall.
"They can't jump, don't be afraid. In the face of the imposing wolves, a family member who led the team hissed incoherently, "We will drive them down by the wall." ”
In the confusion of the private soldiers, the first row of wolves finally rushed to the city not far below and jumped high towards the top of the city wall.
