Chapter 278: Bloody Battle
Shout!
A sharp sound of breaking the air sounded in everyone's ears, and it turned out that the boulder flying from the trebuchet just now did not really fall on the city wall, because the outer protective shield had almost no ability to intercept this kind of stone throwing without any true element attached, so this would really cause damage to the city wall. As the supreme coach, www.biquge.info dedication naturally can't let the other party succeed so easily.
With a slight wave of his sleeves, it was like brushing away a grain of dust on his body, but at the same time as waving his sleeves, a blue light flew out instantly, and he had caught up with the boulder before it fell, and wrapped it directly, and then with an explosion, the boulder seemed to have been detonated in advance, exploding in the distance of the city wall, turning into dust and falling.
"Roar!
The so-called general will be brave, the strength of the main general is naturally the only weapon to inspire, when seeing the sacrifice easily shoot down the menacing stone, many soldiers on the city wall suddenly shouted loudly, and the morale instantly increased a level.
It is precisely because of this that Xianzhi launched an attack at the beginning of the battle, otherwise as the commander of the three armies, Xianzhi should not have made a move at this time.
After offering it, the many soldiers didn't know whether they were much more relieved or became desperate, and braved the rain of arrows flying from under the city to directly lean out and shoot the bows and arrows in their hands at the soldiers of the Dora Empire who were climbing the city wall below.
If there is only a ladder in the battle, it is very unrealistic, then it is impossible to capture the city even if there are many people who fill it in. But on the battlefield now, with siege vehicles, well towers, archers, catapults, and even flying troops controlling flying monsters, there is no way for the soldiers defending the city to come up with enough energy to deal with the countless ladders. At this time, the ladder will be useful, and with its large enough number, it can completely make the defenders on the city wall scorched at this time.
However, in a high city like Qingyin Pass, climbing the ladder is really a very troublesome thing, because it is too high, even if there is no one on the top of such a high ladder to attack, it is not a simple matter for those people below to climb up.
However, there is also an advantage, that is, in this world, because of the strength of the refining method, the cloud ladder becomes very strong after a little processing, and even if it is a cloud ladder with a length of tens of zhang or hundreds of zhang, there is no need to worry about the quality problem. And because the ladder is long enough and the angle is high, there are many people who can stay on it, so when the ladder is placed on the wall, it will be very difficult for the defenders to retreat.
The battle began, countless stones fell in the distance, Jinglou kept thinking about the city gate closer, and the countless siege vehicles were some hitting the city gate, some were directly hitting the city wall, the archers below were also constantly shooting arrows upward, and those flying troops flying into the air were also harassing in various ways. At the moment of the opening, the Dora Empire seemed to have taken out all the means, and the battle immediately entered the white-hot stage.
Xianzhi, who was standing on top of the city tower, looked at the battle on the field, frowned slightly, and said to the person beside him: "Order! Let General Yuan prepare the Fire Cloud Banner to deal with the demon beasts in the sky!"
"No!"
"Order! Bed crossbow prepare, suppress the reinforcement speed of the opposing soldiers!"
"No!"
"Order! Prepare for the oil and know the enemy forces on the ladder now!"
"No!"
"Order! All the magic repairs are ready, the flame attack, and all the siege vehicles are burned!"
"No!"
......
One by one, the instructions were passed down, and the entire city wall was suddenly busy, and this time the test was the elite degree of the soldiers, if it was an elite soldier, although there were many orders, but they did not cross, as long as everyone stuck to their posts, everything could be done quickly. But if it's a straggler, although every order doesn't conflict, those fools will make these things that don't conflict conflict. If the walls are wide like that, they will soon become chaotic, let alone carry out orders, and even normal defense may not be able to do it.
And as a good commander, you must be very clear about the elite degree of your soldiers. In other words, the commander must have the ability to measure the ability of his subordinates, and he must also be able to clearly measure whether his subordinates can do a good job of the orders he has given. If you command your subordinates not to do it, even if you know that this method is good, you can't use it.
Because the most taboo in the army is chaos!
Once it is chaotic, then it is really over, as long as the army is not chaotic, even if the response is a little slower, even if the order is delayed a little, it will not lead to a collapse, at least you can ensure that your army still has the strength to fight, rather than directly collapse and fail.
The city wall of the Qingyin Pass is not a narrow passage, but it has been well designed when it was built, not to mention a horse running on it, even if it is a plane, it is not a problem, and in this way, it can stand up enough people to fight.
The Fire Cloud Banner had already appeared in the last siege battle, so it was still very convenient to deal with those flying demon beasts. As for the bed crossbow, they are powerful defense weapons that are slapped behind the city walls, and the bolts they fire are very similar to siege crossbows, but these bed crossbows are not designed for the city walls and gates, but are specifically designed to deal with people. Moreover, the power of the bed crossbow with the blessing power of the mechanical plus formation method is very powerful, and some of them are firing a bow and arrow with the thickness of an arm, which is extremely fast, even if the true martial arts realm monk is not fully engrossed, it is difficult to dodge, and it is specially prepared to deal with those masters.
Another way is to add a lot of bows and arrows to the bed crossbow, as soon as it is launched, it will form a covering attack on people in a small area, so the function of this bed crossbow is to make a barrier to suppress those soldiers who are some distance away from the city wall. Disconnect the enemy's rear army from the soldiers rushing under the city walls in front, affecting the continuity of the opponent's siege.
Countless bows and arrows, large or small, were thrown into the distance one by one, only to see the soldiers of the Rhodo Empire in the range fall in pieces like cutting wheat, causing heavy casualties to the other party in an instant.
The effect of the oil is a strengthened version of the boiling oil, which is poured from the city wall, and has great lethality for those who have climbed to the top of the ladder, after all, there is almost no possibility of dodging on the ladder, even if you use a shield to cover it, you can't guarantee that you will be spared. Jars of still flaming oil poured down from the city walls, and a smell of burnt meat immediately rushed up, but the smell of burnt human flesh did not make those soldiers defending the city hungry, but disgusted for a while.
However, this kind of fire oil is very harmful to the ladder and the soldiers above it, but it is slightly less interesting to use it against fire-resistant weapons such as siege vehicles. But I didn't play, in the hands of those fire attribute law cultivators, the aura of heaven and earth gathered, and soon the siege vehicles turned into flames.
"Marshal, the place has been repulsed!"
Xianzhi listened to the report of the adjutant general beside him, and looked at the troops of the Dora Empire who had retreated from the city walls, but had not left, obviously preparing for the next attack, and fell into deep thought.
"Seems a little too easy......"
