Fifty-one, bloody battles (3)

Countless bamboo arrows shot down the city wall, their own strength plus the gravity of falling from high altitude, the two forces were superimposed, even if the cavalry in front of them were masters with more than eight strength could not be stopped, even if they were blessed with several defensive magic, they could not be stopped, every time they were hit by an arrow, there was absolutely no minor injury, either death or serious injury, and it was definitely a loss of combat effectiveness, so when the arrows rained down, it was strange that the cavalry was not unlucky.

However, the cavalry is not completely powerless to fight back, and several commanders of the dark demons have thought about this possibility early on, so they let the cavalry carry some small pieces of iron by their side, there is no such thing as a hidden weapon on the Western Continent, there are no such things as flying knives and flying swords, and there are no bows and arrows on the cavalry's body, therefore, the cavalry's long-range attack means are very few, and the dark demon cavalry uses a specially made iron block in order to increase the long-range attack means, these iron blocks are just flat prismatic shapes, and the surrounding areas are relatively thin, and they are not sharp, but the strength of the cavalry is not weak, and it can also hurt people if thrown out of the hand with their hands, and this prismatic iron block is not heavy, but it is three or four heavy,Although it is attacked from below, however, if you hit the human body, it will also hurt the archer, and if you hit the vital point, it can also kill people, of course, it is not as useful as a bow and arrow.

Part of the cavalry with prismatic iron to return fire, and part of the cavalry is from their mounts to draw spears, hard to the city wall, they are full of strength, the spear is made of stainless steel, weighing fifty pounds, this flying out, is nailed on the ground about fifteen meters above the city wall, deep into the city wall to reach half a meter deep, after the first spear thrown, the second spear is thrown again, landing on the first spear above about ten meters, then the third spear, the fourth spear, after throwing the four spears, the cavalry has rushed to the city wall.

A group of horsemen began to abandon their horses, flew up, stepped on the spears thrown by the cavalry, and with the help of their strength, flew the second spear, and so jumped until they reached the position of the third spear, which was now fifty meters high. They took out the spear from their backs, then jumped up again, inserted the spear into the city wall with their hands, and then borrowed their strength, their bodies were already standing on the spear, and then they rose up with their strength, so that one by one the spears were inserted into the city wall, so that they could make spear ladders one after another, and they could go up to the city wall, as long as they could go up to the city wall, with their strength, the Shura army would not be able to block their attack at all.

And more cavalry is constantly throwing their spears out of the wall, creating more landing points under the city wall, the city wall is too high after all, the spear is bulky, throwing to a hundred meters high is already the limit, after all, if the spear is not firmly inserted, it is useless, so, to a hundred meters high, although the cavalry above to insert the spear by themselves, however, there are more landing points below, the cavalry has more room for maneuver, otherwise, the defenders above only need to throw a few stones down it will be troublesome, falling from a height of 100 meters is not a joke, especially the cavalry has more than 100 pounds of heavy armor, even people with armor There are more than 300 pounds, as soon as it falls, it is definitely a meatloaf.

Because the part of the cavalry that went up to the city was already attached to the city wall, the defenders above had no good attack method, they could only throw rolling stones, but if they wanted to hit the cavalry, they needed to lean out and throw it hard, so that leaning out was to let the cavalry hit the target, and the power of those prismatic iron blocks was still very great, so the casualties of the defenders began to increase, and the cavalry was also rising step by step, from one hundred meters to one hundred and twenty meters, and then to one hundred and fifty meters, and almost to the city wall.

It's just that the spears on these cavalry have also run out, after all, the spears weigh fifty catties, and the six they bring to them already weigh three hundred catties, plus the weight of themselves and their armor, it has exceeded six hundred catties, and if there are more, they will not jump high, so the cavalry below will throw their spears high and fly to those cavalry, while the cavalry attached to the city wall is backhanded, and then use the former method, but in this way, it will naturally be slower.

Just as the cavalry began to ascend the spear ladder, the black-clothed Shura, who was standing on the city wall, shouted, "Boiling oil." "In the vacant place behind the city wall, there is a large cauldron every ten meters away, and the pot has already been filled with liquid, and the aroma coming from the liquid can be seen to be vegetable oil, and there are countless large jars next to the pot, of course, it is also vegetable oil. A large number of soldiers have already been prepared, there are ten soldiers on the side of each cauldron, after they heard the order of the black-clothed Shura, their hands have been attached to the side of the pot, transporting the flame fighting qi, and the hands are immediately raised a stream of flames, these soldiers are all cultivating the fire fighting qi, although the cultivation is not high, but the fire fighting qi heart method is also improved, the temperature of the fighting qi is as high as thousands of degrees, and the ten soldiers are transporting the fighting qi to boil the oil, but it is more than 20 seconds of effort, and a large pot of vegetable oil has been boiled.

There were also ten soldiers holding a big spoon in their hands, scooping up boiling vegetable oil from the pot, running to the city wall, pouring the vegetable oil, pouring it back and scooping it back, and so on, until all the original vegetable oil was scooped clean when the pot was empty, until the pot ran out of oil, the ten soldiers who made a fire poured the vegetable oil from the jar into the pot again, and began to boil the oil with flame fighting again, and so on.

The temperature of the boiling vegetable oil reaches hundreds of degrees, and the person is definitely scalded to the flesh, and the armor is a heat transfer thing, even if it is not scalded on the skin all at once, it is unbearable to pour on the armor, and this oil does not need to lean out, just stand by the city wall and fall down, and there is no need to pay attention to the hit rate, because there are many people who pour oil, and it is okay to sprinkle it casually, so that you can see a large piece of vegetable oil pouring down from the air from below, which is almost unavoidable, and it is extremely difficult to dodge。

The number of the top group of cavalry is as many as a thousand, they did not guard against the defenders and this trick, they did not watch out for a while, poured the boiling oil upright, drenched in armor is a little better, the front door only felt a sharp pain in their faces, both eyes were blind, they could no longer stand, fell off the spear, it can be said that the first batch of thousands of cavalry almost few dodged the poisonous hands of the boiling oil. And a large number of cavalry below were also recruited, and all of a sudden, as many as 3,000 cavalrymen fell, and it is certain that these 3,000 cavalry basically had no hope of survival.

Several army commanders commanding in the rear saw this move, and their faces changed one by one. The commander of the Fourth Army, Kamra, scolded: "Damn, it's so shameless for the black-clothed Shura to use such a trick." I don't know where he learned it. "Yes, there has never been such a vicious and shameless trick as boiling oil on the Western Continent. Yes, an arrow is just a wound, but if you are drenched with a spoonful of boiling oil, the consequences are far more serious than that of an arrow, although the price of an arrow is cheaper than a spoonful of oil, but the effect of boiling oil is better.

Although the oil is pouring down constantly, but, the siege is still going to attack, those cavalry have rushed to the city, not attacking is a dead end, attacking it may be a way to live, besides, the boiling oil is not uncrackable, however, the danger is just a little bit, the best way is of course to hold a shield in one hand to block it, one hand to hold a spear, both hands have something, can no longer rely on the power of both hands, climbing the spear ladder is a bit dangerous, but, for these masters above the eighth level of strength, the danger is not great.

The shield is the equipment that every cavalry has, although it is smaller, not as big as the big shield of the infantry, but it can also block the boiling oil on it, sure enough, after having the shield, plus the cavalry are full of fighting energy, after the rolling oil is blocked by the shield, even some oil droplets splashed on the body will be bounced away by their protective fighting spirit, so, the boiling oil is no longer useful, but the boiling oil on it seems to be free of money, or upside down, in this way, the speed of the cavalry to climb is much slower, it only takes thirty seconds to climb to a hundred meters high, but now it takes at least a minute or more。

More cavalry began to climb the spear ladder, at least 30,000 cavalry climbed on the 8,000-meter-long city wall, and tens of thousands of cavalry were passing spears below, and there were still three spears left to reach the city, and a little faster, a little faster to be able to attack the city, and every cavalryman secretly shouted in his heart: "Hurry, faster." "It's not that they're afraid of death, but the losses when they rush through this death blockade are too great, 150,000 cavalry charged, and now there are only 120,000 left, and in less than thirty minutes, 30,000 cavalry have fallen, this is not an ordinary cannon fodder infantry, but an elite cavalry.

Five minutes have passed since the beginning of pouring oil, and the amount of boiling oil has reached an astonishing number, yes, at least 500,000 catties, so much vegetable oil has been poured, I don't know if the black-clothed Shura has heartache, oil is very expensive, every catty of oil costs three silver coins, and it took 150,000 gold coins to work hard, and the war is money.

However, the black-clothed Shura smiled: "Stupid, I really don't know whether to live or die." Set. Two thousand soldiers threw their torches out of the box. Oil is very easy to burn, ignited, and 500,000 catties of oil has been poured under the city wall, as soon as 2,000 torches are dropped, a fire is ignited below, and at the same time, more than 10,000 soldiers throw oil jars under the city wall, throwing one after another. These jars are all filled with 100 catties of oil, and after losing them seven or eight times, it is equivalent to throwing millions of catties of oil. As a result, beneath the city walls has become a sea of fire.

The ability to protect the body is very strong, but it can't prevent fire, although there is no problem with fire prevention in tens of seconds, but, it is impossible for any fighting spirit to be fireproof for a long time, the sentence of ruthlessness of water and fire is definitely not just talking, there is already a lot of oil under the city wall, the flame is already half a day high, plus a large amount of oil in the air is poured down, the entire city wall has almost become a sea of fire.

The cavalry standing on the ground is still easy to do, and use the fighting spirit to make a move to blast the sea of fire away, but any animal is more afraid of fire, even if it is a fire monster, the cavalry's flame horse is also unable to withstand the sea of fire, so these flame horses began to run around, so that the cavalry on horseback naturally could no longer settle down, and for a while, tens of thousands of cavalry under the city wall were in chaos.
