Chapter 146: Race to be the first to attack the city
Seeing countless arrows shooting straight out of the city, Theresa and Eugene hurriedly ordered the soldiers in front to put up their shields, and then the army bowed forward under the cover of the shields, for fear of being attacked by artillery again, Theresa and Eugene have been closely watching the movement in the city, but they have not seen any signs of artillery in the city.
The two ordered the army to move quickly in order to seize the opportunity.
After marching more than twenty meters, seeing that fewer and fewer arrows were being shot down, and there was no other movement in the city, Teresa and Eugene were all happy.
In the eyes of the two, Tias is a small border city, no matter how important the geographical location is, there must not be many shells and arrows in the city. Although the offensive in the city just now was very fierce, and it was a rain of artillery and arrows, but now it seems that eighty percent of the cannonballs and arrows in the city have been used up, and the two of them looked at each other and felt that the opportunity had come.
Theresa's eyes rolled, and he felt that he must not let the Val take the lead at this time, otherwise he would lose his prestige greatly.
Although the "Uta State" sent troops to attack Tias together with the Vaal this time, the officers of the "Uta State", including Teresa, were very repulsed by these Vaal people.
In the eyes of the officers of the Uta country such as "Teresa", the Vaal people are just a bunch of vulgar savages who have no manners, and they can't even figure out why they want to send troops in partnership with these savages and lend them money, aren't they afraid that these savages will take this opportunity to do something bad to the Uta country?!
It is precisely because of this kind of heart that Theresa wants to take this opportunity to show these Vaal people, don't think that their physical strength is stronger than their own people, fighting is not only by brute force, but also by using their brains!
Thinking of this, Teresa straightened up and shouted to the soldiers behind him, "Brothers, charge me! Take the gates and make way for the army!"
As soon as his words fell, all the soldiers of the "Uta Country" behind him shouted and ran towards the city gate in front, and the artillerymen also chose the angle at this time, and set up their cannons one after another, preparing to cooperate with the soldiers in front of them to attack the city.
On the other side, Eugene, an officer of the Uta State, saw that Theresa had suddenly ordered the siege of the city, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes. Everyone knows that although the Uta Kingdom has jointly sent troops with the Vaal tribe this time, there is no trust between the two sides at all! At this time, if one side takes the lead in capturing the city, it will definitely not be a good thing for the other side.
Although he was dissatisfied, Eugene didn't say much, just turned around and said loudly to the Vaal soldiers behind him: "Give it to me!"
In an instant, thousands of Vaal men swarmed out from behind Eugene, some of them were carrying spears, some were carrying sledgehammers, and some were carrying climbing ropes in their hands.
On the city wall, watching the thousands of men and horses of Theresa running over, all the officers and soldiers didn't feel anything, but at this moment, when they saw those Vaal big men running over with a hideous face, and their mouths were still roaring from time to time, all the officers and soldiers felt trembling.
Thinking that Situ had just ordered everyone not to do anything, all the officers and soldiers were extremely uneasy.
The enemy is coming so fiercely, do you just do nothing but watch this city? Several short-tempered officers couldn't help but run to Situ Jin and asked, "Young Master Situ, do you want to give Tias City to the enemy?"
Seeing that the enemy had almost run to a distance of less than 50 meters from the city wall, more and more people could not stay any longer, and several officers shouted that they would lead their troops down to defend the city gate.
That's when an amazing scene happened.
I saw that the enemy soldiers who were shouting and running were running less than fifty meters away from the city, and suddenly stopped, and everyone in the city looked at this scene in surprise, not knowing what was happening.
More and more soldiers came running from behind, but strangely enough, all the soldiers stopped as soon as they got to where the soldiers were standing, as if they didn't know what was going on.
Some of the soldiers raised their feet and tried to take a step forward, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not take a step forward. It was as if there was an invisible wall in front of them blocking them out, and although they could see the scenery on the other side of the wall, they could not climb over the other side of the wall.
Seeing this scene, the Tias officers and soldiers in the city were also shocked, and those officers who had just shouted that they were going down to defend the city gate all stopped and looked at Situ Jin with an uncertain expression.
Situ Jin just looked at the city with a smile on his face, and did not speak, which made everyone feel that Situ Jin was a little unfathomable.
Soon, Teresa and Eugene, who were standing at the back of the enemy ranks, also noticed the anomaly ahead, and the two stepped forward to find that as everyone said, from here, there was no way to take a single step forward.
Theresa's eyes were gloomy, and after a while, he said: "Since we can't run over, then we will use artillery!"
After saying that, Theresa yelled: "The artillerymen come forward and give me a hard shot!"
As soon as Theresa finished speaking, the gunners at the rear of the line hurriedly raised the gun mounts and barrels and hurried forward.
After re-erecting the barrel, Theresa shouted, "Shoot me at the gates!"
After speaking, I saw countless cannonballs spraying out of the barrel and shooting straight towards the city wall. All of a sudden, the cannonballs filled the sky, and the officers and soldiers of Tias, who had already calmed down a little, became nervous again, for fear that the cannonballs would fall down and blow the wall to pieces.
However, the result was once again beyond everyone's expectations.
The first shells to be fired only flew less than five meters in mid-air, and as if they had been intercepted by something, they began to fall one after another, and everyone saw that the location of those shells was the boundary that had just blocked everyone's progress.
"Bang Bang"
The cannonball finally exploded, only to see a sudden light in the air in front of them, and then, an oval pattern with a diameter of about 100 meters suddenly appeared in front of everyone, this oval pattern was like a huge light array, enveloping the entire city of Tias inside.
Whenever a large number of cannonballs land on the needle, the light array will flicker.
Seeing this strange scene in front of him, whether it was the officers and soldiers of Tias City, or the soldiers of the Uta Kingdom and the Vaal Clan, they all looked sluggish, and the scene in front of them was obviously beyond everyone's understanding.
After the stupor, the soldiers of the Uta and the Vaal tribe were all shocked and quickly retreated. Even Theresa and Eugene retreated to the back of the group with a solemn face, not daring to take another step forward.
