readx; Floating City and Earth City, this is a new pair of offensive and defensive weapons that appeared during the War of the Gods. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The former appeared in the city of Hamburg, but unfortunately it was only a swan song for the ages, while the latter, since the advent of Scambray, has repeatedly appeared in the offensive and defensive battles of cities on various continents. Of course, the most famous is the earthen castle of Scambrai.

It is said to be a dirt city, but in fact, it is more accurate to say that it is a dirt mountain. After the War of the Gods, in order to commemorate the great achievements of the small mercenary group in this war, the empire invested heavily in transplanting a large number of pines, cypresses and green bamboos from the pan-continent, and turned the entire earth mountain into a famous landscape south of Scambrai, so this earth mountain was named Jingshan.

And in order to pile up the big pit dug by Jingshan, that is, the number one sinkhole during the War of the Gods, and later His Excellency Amy, the Golden Brain, went all the way to the continents, this big pit was really forgotten to fill, and this is also the only pit that Amy did not fill during the War of the Gods. After many years, the accumulated rainwater formed a large lake that faces Jingshan in the distance, that is, the North Sea.

- "Hanging Through the Ages"

Chapter 22 Didu's Danger In fact, the magic stroke of Tucheng originated from the offensive and defensive battles of Horns Grass City.

Two years ago, Amy and Daqingshan could not have imagined that in the face of the menacing Merlin and Mora Beast Legion, Horns would actually defend it with the help of grain and grass stacks and a large number of ice scrolls blackmailed from the Dragon Realm. At that time, Amy joked: "I can't imagine that there is a floating city in front of me and a grass city in the future, and then there will be a siege war in the winter, and the city will be drafted to attack each other, and it can be higher than the city wall." ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. Horns pondered at the time, such a grass town would definitely not be useful for attacking Hamburg City, but if it was used to attack a fortified city like Scambrai, maybe it was really possible. It's just that the grass city is too strong, and once it encounters a dense attack by catapults in the attack, it will definitely collapse, what if it is replaced by an earth city and a stone city?

Horns could not have imagined that only a year later, he would have the opportunity to realize his idea.

After the sun had fully risen, Reynolds, Hai Shuai, and the Delaware Lord, who had been pulled out of the bed, stood at the head of the city, squinting their eyes and carefully looking at the already oppressive hill opposite.

It is made entirely of earth and stone, and it is mainly made of earth. All the soil was put into a wooden box with a length of 100cmx50cmx50cm by the people behind the hill, and it was rammed once on the ground, and the planks were bent to both sides, and then poured water. Only now do I understand why the little mercenary group has cut down all the trees around it.

Then a small cart was used to push it up along the paved dirt road, layer after layer, and each yard was one layer higher, and the hill was 50 centimeters higher. The whole earth mountain, in the shape of a "herringbone", "the head of the "man" is the highest point of the regimental city on the southeast side of the Campbrai, the two wings of the "man" from more than 60 meters have been slowly descending to more than 30 meters, flat to the city of Scambrai, the two wings are completely stacked according to the pattern of the city wall, the two wings are full of soldiers and people, and hundreds of strong bows and crossbows and dozens of simple catapults that have just been made are also placed on it.

At the top, there are four people patrolling back and forth, three humans and one dwarf, one in white, one in green, and one in a black sè suit and a black sè cloak, the sun is hanging behind the heads of these people, bright and shining, although they can't see their faces clearly for a while, but this is definitely the four giants of the small mercenary group that are like fakes! At least Hai Shuai and Reynolds both think so.

After a while, all three humans went down, leaving the dwarf to continue to direct the construction of the earthen city. The dwarf even commanded all the people who were working on the city wall to sing "We Dwarves Have Power", and finally, before going down to the city, the dwarf was extremely arrogant and took out all the male xing markers on the earth mountain to fire fiercely at Scambrai City.

"Horns ......" How many Fanos officers on the city wall are eager to crush the steel teeth in their mouths!

However, when it became clear what was still going on on the earthen city, the officers on the walls stopped gnashing their teeth - and there was no time to gnash their teeth!

The people were still pushing the wooden crates to the highest point in a steady stream, and as soon as the small cart lifted it vigorously, the large wooden crates tumbled all the way to the ground, and after hundreds of large wooden boxes fell, the earth mountain actually moved forward little by little—it was obvious that the small mercenary group actually wanted to use this method to dig a pit all the way to push the earth mountain all the way to the front of the Scambrai wall.

There are two things that Scambray City deserves to boast about, one is tall, and the other is solid. Especially in height, the average height of the city wall is 20 meters, the arrow tower is 28 meters, the regimental city is 30 meters, and the city gate is 40 meters. From the day it was built, the Scambrai defenders were only thinking about how to strike at the enemy on the ground faster, at best, facing a tower more than 20 meters high. All the large long-range attack equipment fixed on the city walls, including catapults, crossbows, and bed crossbows, were aimed at the ground, and now it was too difficult to remove them and readjust the throwing angle, and besides, even if they were to be adjusted - who had heard that someone had smashed the mountain with a catapult? Now Scambrai was facing a mountain of dirt!

"Merlin, Moramon, Slimbour. Dahaino called the two henchmen and the bear man who had just been sent from the blue island not long ago: "Merlin, you lead your legion out of the east gate of Scambrai and attack this dirt mountain from the left side after seeing the red sè magic signal; The two legion commanders of Chimble, Merlin and Mora Beast will attack first, and will contain the defensive forces on the dirt mountain to both sides, you bring the heavy infantry in my direct legion, and after seeing the magic signal of Huang Sè, you will raid this dirt mountain from the center. ”

Marshal Dahaino knew that the small mercenary group had the largest Jing Spirit and Dwarf troops on the entire continent, and his eyesight was too good, and the surprise attack outside the city wall could not be concealed if he wanted to. The only way to do this is to create chaos through the two wings and ultimately achieve the goal.

"Your Majesty, I still need to trouble you in this matter. You and Legion Leader Yemoda lead all the pseudo-dragon knights and phantom beast knights to break through the enemy's frontal position from the air in one fell swoop when Slimbur is halfway through the attack. Sticky, you must occupy the territory and mountains in one fell swoop!, understand?" After the old marshal, who was over half a hundred years old, finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh. After fighting a lifetime of battles, defending the city and defending the city, it is still guarding the number of strong cities in the world, and now it is ...... The greatest sorrow of the soldiers is that they were oppressed by the enemy to abandon the city wall to attack the enemy's city wall......, right? Old...... This world is really a world of young people, and it's not okay to be old!

"Yes! The three officers descended the city along the city road, and each beckoned his direct herald to mobilize his legions.

The pseudo-dragon knights are directly under the command of Reynolds, and the young emperor also sent someone to transfer, and it is very clear that they must stick to the city wall and return here, and all the knights are waiting for orders under the city wall, so as not to be seen clearly by the small mercenary group Jing Ling on the earth mountain.

Jiang is still old and spicy, and Reynold's mind was blank just now, and Dahaino was able to break his wrist in the shortest possible time and decisively abandon the city wall. In Reynold's opinion, it is impossible to invest three Jingrui legions in one fell swoop under such a big hill.

"Haishuai, why don't you send the heavy knight knight troops in my legion to the front?" Reynolds decided to add another fire.

"Okay. Please arrange it for Your Majesty. The old marshal smiled at the young emperor.

Scambrai was so big that it took an hour for the three legions to be ready as orders were ordered through the city.

With a loud bang, a red sè magic light bomb rushed directly into the air at a height of 50 meters, and exploded into a ball of red sè clouds in the sky.

The east and south two main gates are open at the same time, the main gate of Scambrai is 18 meters wide, can pass 12 horses at the same time, there is a ear gate on both sides of the main gate, the ear door is 9 meters wide, and can also pass 12 horses at the same time, first the knight troops, then the light infantry and archers, and finally the heavy infantry, the troops rushed out of the gate, did not stop at all to make any adjustments, under the leadership of the independent officers, snorted to the earth mountain that was still slowly rising from the ground!

Standing on the dirt hill, Horns could see clearly with the dwarves' long eyesight, and the two armies of ironclad were arranged almost identically, with heavy infantry in the middle, light knights on the flanks, and light infantry and archers in the back. The light knights had already picked up their speed, apparently to clear the soldiers and people on the periphery, and as for the main attack, they still had to rely on the infantry and archers behind.

The Phanos army is now also using the most conventional means of using troops in the Eminole continent, at the beginning, if on the banks of the Lion River, the soldiers had such means as today, and maybe the winner of the misery will have to be changed that time.

Two orders were issued in a row, and several mercenary swordsmen and a thousand people pulled up from behind the dirt mountain, and formed a chaotic formation under the dirt mountain-Horns smiled and looked at the chaos below, this kind of performance was already better than he expected. After all, it is a sheep that has just put on a wolf's skin for more than 10 days.

On the wall of Scambre, a smile appeared on the corner of Dahaino's mouth: Famer is Famer, no matter how strong the mercenary is, he can only expect to compete with the regular army when defending the city, and in a frontal war, it is absolutely impossible for the mercenary to compete with the same number of Jingrui troops. Thinking about it, Hai Shuai actually said such a thing.

Reynolds next to him didn't show any expression on his face, and he was very unhappy, after all, he was also born as a mercenary, and Reynolds knew more about the small mercenary group than Dahaino: Amy's reputation in using soldiers is not as good as Chi Aotian's, but Amy's use of soldiers has never been normal, and she likes to use her brains to complete things that others need to use her strength to complete, which is probably what people often say is better than using your brain.

Without a word, Reynolds led his mount dragon into the sky, circled in the air for a small moment, and immediately fell, his face became solemn: "Lord Marshal, it seems that something is wrong, all the catapults, ballistas, etc. on the hill have not changed direction at all. ”

The old soldier was stunned! The catapult and the ballista didn't move......? How could the little mercenary regiment have the confidence to hold off the knight's charge with these swordsmen who had just been drawn, let alone the heavy infantry that was coming behind. Although Hai Shuai is not very interested in the quality of mercenaries fighting head-on, he has never doubted the thinking of the commanders of the small mercenary group, and there must be something wrong with this unusual move!

"Cancel the attack! Collect the troops!" Dahaino immediately ordered, the old marshal was most cautious in his use of troops, and liked others to follow his train of thought, but now the situation is the opposite, this feeling is very bad, and there is absolutely no mistake in being more careful.

Several trumpeters hurriedly picked up a huge horn more than one meter long, beet ~~ beet ~~, and the continuous horn immediately passed through the clouds and sounded throughout the land.

Merlin and Mora Beast on the front line were stunned, how did the old commander become troubled by gains and losses? Hurriedly beckoned all the troops, the heavy infantry stood on the spot, and the light infantry and archers slowly retreated.

But...... There is still a problem, from the east gate to the earth mountain is only more than 3 miles, more than twice as close as the south gate, Merlin, as the most outstanding three senior orc officers in the entire Eminole Continent, has seen the powerful attack power of the knight troops of the Fire Lion Legion in the Lion River battle, therefore, since the knight unit was set up under his command, from the staffing to the mount configuration, he has invested heavily to strengthen this unit. The distance of 1500 meters is a small sprint for 2 knights and thousands.

When the horn sounded, the knight thousand people who rushed in the front row were only 300 miles away from Tushan, and the knights who rushed in the first two rows had already leveled the knight's guns, and it was easy to put the knight's spear two meters and seven meters long, but it was much more difficult to re-erect it in the sprint - if the emergency call was sounded now, the knights in the second row would directly throw the bayonet gun in their hand to the ground. But, alas, not. In order to maintain a sufficient speed distance, the knights in the first row had to run forward for more than 30 meters, and the result was ...... The ground in front of the knight suddenly collapsed without any symptoms, and the more than 200 light knights who rushed to the first row without exception fell into a large pit more than six meters wide and three or four meters deep...... There were more than a dozen knights in the second row, who rushed to the front, and they couldn't catch up, and they screamed and fell in...... The screams died away.

Hai Shuai, Emperor Mianyang, and Delaware were dumbfounded, although standing on the city wall, the old marshal felt that the dirt that burst up at the moment of the collapse of the trench seemed to hit his face, and sweat immediately seeped out of his forehead, and after a while, he whispered to Reynolds: "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reminder." ”

Dahaino figured out two points: first, for more than ten days, the small mercenary group had been digging, and in addition to laying the foundation for this dirt mountain, the rest was that they didn't know how many such trenches had been dug in front of them--they thought that they were all propped up with wooden stakes below, and they were waiting for the Scambrai soldiers to be deceived; second, they underestimated the enemy, and seriously underestimated the enemy. The four giants of the small mercenary group are really a headache...... Ineffable:
