Chapter 842: Can't Wait Any Longer!

Edward quickly arranged the order of the wheel battles.

Because Gervais's team was the weakest, it was arranged in the last wave.

Of course, before the wheel war, they still need to work together to complete the most important thing, which is to fill in the moat.

The name of this large indigenous city is different from other small towns, and it does not start with the word 'holy', but directly after the word 'god'.

This divine city can accommodate less than two or three million people, and the width of the moat can be imagined in such a large city, which is more than 150 meters wide.

And the ballistas on the head of the city are even denser, which makes people's scalp numb.

Previously, the scouts went to check on the Golden Shield family on the west side, and most of the thousands of people died under this ballista.

"Gervais, I'll hand over those ballistas to you, is there a problem?"

The city lords had already returned to their respective camps to arrange for the preparation of men, but Edward stopped Gervais.

Edward had long heard Johnson say that Gervais had a strange weapon, and although it was as powerful as a trebuchet, it was very accurate.

"No problem, though, the natives have a bit of a lot of ballistae, and the walls are too high, so it might take a little longer!"

Of course, Gervais will not hide it, but this big city is more than 100 meters high, and the number of ballistas is at least eight or nine hundred on each side, so it is not easy to solve it.

"It's okay Gervais, just do your best!"

Edward didn't put pressure on Gervais, and immediately reassured him.

"Good!"

With that, Gervais said goodbye to Edward and returned to his camp.

Coming to the camp, taking Ike and the others and ten cannons, Gervais went directly to five hundred meters outside the Divine City.

"Ike, you're in command!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

This is not a state of emergency, so naturally there is no need for Gervais to personally go down and command!

He gave Ike a command, then sat down in the soft chair that the guards had prepared for him, and began to wait leisurely.

Boom Boom!

Soon, under the command of Ike, ten artillery pieces were activated, and bursts of roar suddenly sounded outside the Divine City.

Although Gervais had room for his promise to Edward, the artillery still caused a lot of trouble for the natives defending the city.

After only three rounds of shelling, more than a dozen ballistas were destroyed on the hundred-meter-high wall.

Of course, compared to eight or nine hundred ballistas, more than ten ballistae are just a drop in the bucket.

Edward gave Gervais half an hour to advance, and at this rate, he should be able to deal with hundreds of native ballistas in half an hour.

And half an hour later, it was time for the Holy Cities to temporarily take the risk of arrows to fill the river.

……

West of the City of God.

When the Sky City coalition forces began the river reclamation operation, Bartman was sitting in his tent.

At this time, an air knight who had just reconnoitred the turnback was reporting to him.

"So, that weird weapon of the god of killing can easily deal with those ballistas on the walls of the native city walls?"

Bartman's face was expressionless, and after listening to the air knight's report, he asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, Lord Duke! The weapon that killed the god only sounded three times, and more than a dozen ballistas on the indigenous city wall were destroyed! It took only four or five minutes. ”

The air knight immediately nodded in certainty.

Bang!

Receiving an affirmative answer from the Air Knight, Bartman suddenly slapped the table, and then the whole person stood up.

It has been three days since the Golden Shield Family coalition arrived under this Divine City.

However, in the face of the dense ballistas on the city wall, it took them more than two days just to fill the river.

And it took more than 3,000 people to complete the river reclamation.

If the god-killing weapon can effectively deal with the ballistas on the city wall, then the Golden Shield Family alliance will definitely not be able to compare to Sky City and the others.

"Can't wait any longer!"

Bartman frowned and muttered to himself.

Although he hoped that Edward and the others could quickly start attacking the city, that was on the premise that the Sky City coalition army needed to consume as much living force as possible.

But now the god of killing has destroyed the ballistas on the city wall with his strange weapons, but it has disrupted his plans.

What's more, once the ballistas on the city wall are completely eliminated, Edward and the others can concentrate on attacking the city, and if the main god is really quickly occupied by the Sky City coalition forces, then his plan will be completely lost.

Thinking of this, Bartman finally made up his mind.

"You go out now and call Kuiying and the others to me!"

Bartman commanded the half-kneeling air knight.

"Yes, Lord Duke!"

The air knight didn't dare to say anything, so he immediately answered, and then quickly left the tent.

About five minutes later, a series of footsteps rang out outside Bartman's tent.

"Come in directly!"

Hearing the footsteps, without waiting for someone outside to report, Bartman directly opened his mouth and commanded.

"Lord Duke, you're looking for us!"

A total of five people came in from outside the tent, all of them with the realm of Black Flag Knights.

These people are the natives of the Godfall Land, the people who were appointed to sit in the Golden Shield family back then.

Although the current Golden Shield family has risen in strength, they can no longer play a role, but they have been kept by Bartman.

"Well, our plans are going to start early! Now go and inform the High Priest. ”

Bartman said with a nod to the crowd.

"Do you want to act early? Lord Duke, haven't those people from Sky City just arrived? ”、

"And, those allies on your side ......"

One of the natives heard Bartman's words and immediately spoke in confusion.

However, before he could finish speaking, Bartman interrupted directly.

"There's been a little change in Sky City, so I've decided to act sooner for the sake of safety!"

"As for the problem you just said, I will naturally have a solution!"

"Okay, Lord Duke, then we'll go and inform the High Priest now!"

When the descendant of the divine servant heard Bartman's words, he had no objection, and immediately bowed respectfully in response.

"Hmm!"

Bartman nodded, then thought of something, so he solemnly explained it again!

"By the way, Kuiying, you must remember, you have to be fast!"

"Yes, Lord Duke!"

Soon, the five descendants of the Divine Servants left the tent and rode the Golden Shield Family's Swift Dragon Bird towards the west.

After the descendants of the servants had left, Bartman stepped out of his tent and stood on a high slope looking at the camp to the southeast.

"Not enough casualties? Wouldn't it be solved by creating some conflicts? ”

……

Gervais and the others didn't know what Bartman was planning, and half an hour passed quickly, and Gervais had already destroyed as many as eighty or ninety ballistas of the natives.

However, the destruction of the ballista is also coming to an end for the time being.

Because of the high-density firing of the artillery, the barrel of the gun is already hot and frightening, and if it does not stop for a while, it is likely to damage the artillery, and there is even a danger of exploding.

By the time the cannon noise had died down, his allies had assembled a team to fill the river, numbering about five or six thousand.

"Let's get started!"

Whining!

As Edward gave the order, the sound of the horn was heard in the camp.

"Let's go!"

Subsequently, these river reclamation teams, led by their respective captains, began to advance towards the Divine City.

Because the walls of the City of God are so long, it is impossible to fill them all at once.

Therefore, these river-filling teams were concentrated in this section of the river that had just been cleared of ballistas.

Buzz!

However, even though the number of ballistae had been drastically reduced, Gervais had only time to destroy eighty or ninety of them, and when everyone approached the range of two hundred meters, there was still a permeable humming sound on the city wall.

Whoosh!

Puff puff!

After the buzzing sound, hundreds of crossbow arrows the thickness of a child's arm followed.

These crossbow arrows were more than two meters long, and immediately after they were fired, they landed in the river reclamation team, and dozens of soldiers were pierced through their bodies in an instant.

"Quick, speed up! Attention distraction! ”

Fortunately, in this world set in the Middle Ages, siege is one of the most familiar battlefields for soldiers.

Compared to the rain of hundreds of longbows and arrows, the deterrent power of a hundred or so crossbow arrows is already very small for them, after all, although the power of ballistae is great, the number and speed of attack are not comparable to longbows at all.

Thousands of soldiers then braved rounds of ballista salvos and began to transport mud into the river.

And Gervais's small steel cannon rested for half an hour before starting to destroy the ballista again.

In this way, the river reclamation operation continued until midnight.

Just as the sun was about to set, the horn of the troops sounded outside the city.

After half a day of reclamation, there is already a river crossing channel outside the city that is enough for 10,000 people to pass through at the same time.

The completion of the river reclamation also indicates that the first wave of siege will also begin tomorrow morning.

……

It's night.

To the west of the Divine City, outside the camp of the Golden Shield Family Alliance, a team of 2,000 people was ambushing in the grass outside the camp at this time.

Tonight, the sky was completely obscured by clouds, leaving the two thousand people lurking on the edge of the camp unnoticed.

"Goo! Cuckoo! ”

And at this time, there were a few birdsongs on the edge of the camp ahead.

After hearing the birdsong, more than 2,000 people who were lying on the ground like ghosts instantly squatted up.

One of the leading men leaned towards the wooden wall of the camp.

When the man came to the wooden wall, he immediately saw five men in armor but without any family crest on their chests.

"It's all arranged! The guards have also been dealt with, so let's get moving! ”

"Yes!"

After the two sides met, they just talked briefly, and then waved to the crowd on the grass behind them.

In an instant, the team of two thousand people moved, and they all leaned towards the wooden wall.

When everyone walked more than 100 meters along the wooden wall to the left, an unbelievable scene appeared.

The gate of the Golden Shield Family's allied garrison was completely open, and all the guards fell in a pool of blood.

You must know that there are 60,000 or 70,000 troops stationed in this camp, and such a thing would never have happened before.

However, the more than 2,000 people were not surprised by this, but seemed to have known about it for a long time.

When they arrived at the gate of the camp, they immediately rushed into the camp with torches in one hand and swords in the other.

"Kill!"

Then, there were bursts of shouts and killings in the camp of the Golden Shield Family Alliance, and countless tents were set on fire.

Dangdang!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

All of a sudden, the shouts of killing and the sound of alarm bells from the west outside the Divine City resounded in the sky.

Under its influence, both the natives in the Divine City and the Sky City coalition camp in the northeast are all rumors.
