c_t; Equipped with shields, the Durrants were pleasantly surprised to find that their defenses had been greatly enhanced, and now these warriors were accustomed to using shields to defend themselves against all threats when fighting. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infonovel/When the clay pots with flames flew down, the warriors did not dodge, but habitually raised their shields and prepared their defensive actions.

The clay pot struck the wooden shield erected by the warriors, and the force of the impact caused the pot to shatter. These sealed clay pots were originally filled with lamp oil by Fang Ruitao, and when they shattered, the inertia caused the grease to scatter and spray in all directions, and then it was ignited by the flames on the surface of the clay pots.

Huge flames rose from the ranks of the Durrants, and many of them instantly became burning men. The screams came and went, and the people on the city wall who listened to it also changed color, only Fang Ruitao, who had been in battle for a long time, still looked at everything in front of him as usual, without any discomfort at all.

Looking at those colored soldiers, Fang Ruitao said loudly: "Soldiers, are you afraid?" Fang Ruitao's words no one responded, because everyone didn't know how to answer, it was too embarrassing to say that they were afraid, and it was not in line with the facts to say that they were not afraid.

Fang Ruitao had already foreseen this situation, and he said with a smile: "Actually, it's normal for you to be afraid, who is a natural warrior, fighting is a matter of being born and being familiar twice." After this battle, you are old soldiers, and in the future you can proudly say to others that I participated in a fierce battle, even though I did not even see what the enemy looked like. Fang Ruitao's joke caused the soldiers to laugh, and the tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot. (Marshmallow.)

Fang Ruitao's gaze turned to the still burning earth: "I just want to tell you that fighting a war is not terrible, war relies on bravery, most of the time, only if you have the courage to fight and dare to shoot, can you survive in the end." Remember that only one of you and the enemy can survive, so in order to survive, use your sword to kill the enemy. ”

Fang Ruitao's words caused a shocking roar to erupt among the soldiers, their eyes began to be densely filled with battle intent, and the panicked emotions gradually disappeared.

Seeing that the fighters began to focus on the fight, Katerina smiled and said, "You seem to be very good at agitating people, huh?"

Fang Ruitao said with a smile: "What I want to do is not to encourage them, but to let these see the situation clearly." I just made them realize that panic does not help victory, and bravery is the only barrier to survival. ”

As the two spoke, fierce flames rose in the ranks of the Durrants, who looked a little confused, but under the reprimand of the officers, the well-trained Durrant troops were still in a neat queue, advancing quickly towards the city, but the distance between them was widened a lot.

The dense shield array helped to defend against bows and arrows, while the loose formation minimized the power of Fang Ruitao's flame catapult. Seeing the other party gradually approaching, Fang Ruitao smiled. Keeping a distance can certainly reduce the damage, but when it is purely a shouting command, it will also make it difficult for those officers to control their own team.

The Flame Catapult was still suppressing the Durrants' follow-up team, pulling out a flame from a distance of six hundred meters. The flames burned violently, burning to death many Durrants who dared to set foot in them, and the attacking team began to break down.

"They don't seem to have a lot of confusion. Fang Ruitao waved his hand with a smile: "Weapons go to the city." As soon as his words fell, a group of small catapults were pushed out of the enemy tower by a large number of soldiers, and soon deployed to the various platforms of the city wall.

These small catapults were made of a weight box, which two soldiers could lift with a winch. Placing a small clay pot on the No. 1 scale, the soldiers quickly prepared for the launch. Seeing that the Durrants had reached a distance of about 100 meters, Fang Ruitao gave an order, and many small catapults quickly threw out clay pots with flames.

These pots are small in size and do not store much oil, but the number of small catapults is several times greater than that of large ones, and the throwing density is much higher. Even though the formation of the Durrants was scattered, many people were still injured, and the eyes of the defenders on the city wall widened as they looked at the burning man in front of them, and they felt the cruelty of war for the first time.

Before they could sigh, the Durrants, who were still charging, had already erected the ladders, which were blackened by flames and quickly climbed the towering city walls, which were even worse than the head of the city by half a meter. At this time, the Durrants had no choice but to die if they did not attack, and even if the ladder was not high enough, they could only rush towards the city.

The defenders were using the forkpoles they had just equipped, and although they were jerky in their movements, they were still able to knock down the ladders, but they didn't make their way up the walls, which made it quite difficult for them. Many of the defenders leaned out excitedly and threw the rocks and logs off the city, leaving the Durrants to be beaten to pieces.

With the addition of Fang Ruitao's concept and weapons of defending the city, the defense of Amadeira City became a lot easier, and all the warriors quickly entered the state, and in the middle of the battle, their mental state was rapidly maturing, but soon the Durrants used their secret weapons.

A soldier threw a stone desperately, and before he could retract half of his leaning body, he saw a black shadow flying towards him quickly. Before the soldier could react, two oval pebbles had already smashed into the bridge of his nose. The severe pain made his feet weak, and the whole person fell directly on the city wall, and he covered his bloody face and wailed for his life.

Seeing that the other party actually used a long-range weapon, Fang Ruitao frowned slightly, he couldn't imagine that before the method of making bows and arrows was revealed, they actually had their own long-range weapons. asked people to bring the long-range weapon launched by the other party, and Fang Ruitao immediately recognized it. Two pebbles are connected by a cloth rope, and this weapon is the flying stone rope.

The Flying Stone Rope also has a use in the Celestial Continent, but it is found in small quantities among the herdsmen of the Chagatai Khanate, and it is mostly used to tie up wild horses for capture, and no one has ever used it as a weapon before. After Fang Ruitao repelled the Chagatai cavalry with purely long-range weapons at the Flail Blue Pass, Marshal Gamudi began to think about the countermeasures of long-range weapons, and this weapon used by the herdsmen soon entered his field of vision.

In this way, the Chagatai people became the second country equipped with long-range weapons after the Longxiao Empire, although this weapon is difficult to kill people with one hit, and the range is short, but after all, it can make the opponent lose its combat effectiveness in a short time, and in the rapidly changing battlefield, such an attack method is not bad.
