Fourth, the battle for the hegemony of Chishui Bay Chapter 162 Vauban Siege Law
For two days, the desert was swept with wind and sand.
"What's going on?" As soon as Fansi came up on the city wall, he was covered with sand.
Herbert frowned, "Obviously, the wind is not very strong, but such a large amount of sand and dust is really rare. ”
Fan Xi looked vigilantly at the city wall, "The people of the Red Pavilion are scheming, I am afraid that there is some conspiracy. ”
That's right, this is the conspiracy of the Red Pavilion.
Lydia and a dozen soldiers rode the Landing Bird across the desert, and the wind and dust raised obscured the movement of the large army digging tunnels.
The desert was already soft in sand, and Rowling designed several trench excavators. From digging yellow sand to smearing mud to cover bunkers, this machine can do it all. It's just that there is always a sour smell in the bunker, and Rowling can only say that even the best program has to have bugs.
With the help of the machine, in just two days, the tunnel had been dug to the outer ring of the fortress.
.
In the command tent, the generals gathered.
Bu smiled and looked at the evening sky, "There is no light tonight, the time is ripe." ”
Everyone was happy, but Lydia was still a little worried, "Rowling's method may be able to conquer the Crown Mausoleum, but the Yellow Sand soldiers of the Enchantress with a Thousand Faces, we don't have any effective ways yet." ”
Before he could speak, General Nick suddenly stood up and said, "The illusion of the Thousand-Faced Enchantress is probably a spell that confuses the spirit. ”
Lydia hurriedly asked him to elaborate.
Nick said: "During the sacrifice ceremony of the Wild Sand Empire last year, the 'Thousand-Faced Enchantress' participated in the hunting ceremony. It's just that before attending the ceremony, she made a strange request, saying that she didn't like to hear the cries of the 'Dust Beasts', and asked us to clean up the hunting grounds. ”
Harry chuckled, "The cry of the Dust Beast is like that of a donkey that has been hungry for three days, and it likes to chew dried tobacco leaves, which is really ugly. ”
Don't smile and ask, "Just because the voice is ugly?" ”
Nick looked at it in admiration without smiling, "The Dust Beast has a special soul ability that can affect people's minds. I think that the abilities of this kind of demonic beast are probably very dangerous for the Thousand-Faced Demon Queen, so she must dispose of these demonic beasts first. ”
"But......" Lydia said with a wry smile, "there doesn't seem to be such a monster around here, right?" ”
The young man complained: "If you talk about influencing the mind, there are still half people on the altar of Korson who are good at this skill. ”
He had been controlled twice by Elder Pegu's psychic whispers, and he remembered it vividly.
Lydia said, "That guy has been burned by fire for so many days, I'm afraid he's gone crazy." Even if he is still useful, I am afraid that it will take another ten days and half a month to arrest him. ”
Don't smile and shake your hand, "Don't bother." ”
Oh?
Everyone turned to look at him, and Lydia couldn't help but ask, "Do you even know how to use mind control?" ”
Don't smile and hold out his finger, "I won't, but he will." ”
His finger pointed at the young man.
"Me?" The young man pointed to his nose in surprise, "How did I not know?" ”
Don't laugh and say, "You're behind." ”
The young man looked back, only to see Mira behind him pointing to his nose with even more surprised eyes.
He explained without smiling disgustingly: "Your sword." ”
.
In the dead of night, the army of the Red Pavilion had already prepared and had a full meal.
Lydia ordered the young man to command the trebuchet, General Nick to command the convoy to charge the frontal assault, Harold to attack the main gate as the striker, Fili and Danica to each take charge of a triangular fort, and herself and Mira to prepare to climb the wall as a commando team.
After the arrangements were made, the whole army was not allowed to ignite, and all units entered the combat positions in the dark with the route of march observed during the day.
It happened to be no light that night, and the patrolmen on the city walls could only look at the dark earth and walk around boredly. They knew that the sand was already full of "shepherd's sticks", and perhaps they just had to listen for the sound of thunder.
Syllable!
A gong woke up the entire desert.
The dark desert suddenly lit up with sporadic fires. Boulders roared down from the sky and crashed into the walls.
Catapults?
The flying stones from the patrol frightened the six gods, and someone hurriedly remembered to ring the alarm bell. As soon as I reached the bell tower, I heard the sound of bows and arrows swishing in the night sky like a torrential rain.
"Up! Let's rush over! Lydia rolled out of the trench, picked up her spear, and swept back and forth against the ground. The two groups of soldiers followed her example, sweeping their spears and crawling forward.
The shepherd's staff snapped one after another under the sweep, thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed. The soldiers defending the city had just reacted, and Lydia and several assault teams had already climbed under the walls of the Triangle Fort.
"Quick, let's get down there!" The soldiers defending the city shouted, firing indiscriminately into the dark desert. But the soldiers of the Red Pavilion were all hiding in the trenches, and they only felt the bows and arrows flying overhead with a strong wind.
Lydia and the assault team spliced several spears together with rope in the shooting dead corner under the city walls, and hung a long string of explosives in one section.
"If this thing doesn't work, I'll rip Rowling's mouth to shreds." Lydia glued the soul stone powder to the dynamite leads, "Let's push together, throw it on!" ”
Some of them pushed the barrels of their guns, some pulled ropes, and in the dark night sky, several long poles were thrown up the city wall like fishing rods. As soon as the defenders who stood on it and shot arrows wondered why a string of black balls appeared in front of them, they saw them burst into blinding flames.
Boom!
It is worthy of Nick's specially configured high-efficiency explosives, which can not only blow up the warship, but even the upper part of the city wall has been blown out of a gap.
"Combat convoy cover shot!" Nick gave the order, and dozens of repeating ballistae fired a volley at the defenders on the city wall in the night.
Taking advantage of this wave of volleys, Lydia and the others had already thrown up the rope ladder. And Mira and the special combat team relied on the cat's claw-like claws to climb the wall and rub onto the city wall.
"It's finally our turn!" Mira wore the skull helmet of the monster and let out a terrifying howl. Those defenders thought it was some terrible monster rushing up, and they were a little afraid of her before they could do it.
Mira's steel fork poked and picked, and the defenders fell one after another. The war bow in the hands of the special combat team is even more fierce, and the blades at both ends are shining in the dark night, whirling and slashing. Lydia panted and climbed the walls to fight a battle, only to find that the triangular fort had been almost cleaned by Mira.
"Extinguish the extra torches." Lydia commanded, "See what weapons they have to borrow?" ”
As she spoke, she had already aimed at two trebuchets, and there were several more cannons under the walls. Lydia seemed to have grabbed a special item, and immediately became overjoyed: "This 'queen' sister is really willing to pay for it, now you can greet her well!" ”
