The siege continued.

On the walls of the Demon King's Castle, under this rain of arrows that never seemed to stop, the Demon King's soldiers had no other way to fight back than passive dodge, because their catapults and bows and arrows could not shoot the enemy at all.

The reason for this obvious difference is the difference in the bows and arrows used by both sides.

The soldiers of the Demon King on the city wall only used ordinary bows and arrows, and the range was only about 50 to 80 meters. However, Zhao Nan's 3,000 cavalry used longbows.

Zhao Nan had participated in the Northern War of the Elves against the Dragons during the beta period, so he had a certain understanding of the archery skills of the Elves who were good at using bows and arrows, so before leaving, he deliberately asked the three thousand cavalry of the coalition army to replace them with this kind of longbow.

This longbow has a 2-meter bow body, an arrow cast in iron, and a range of more than 300 meters, and at a distance of 100 meters, it can easily penetrate the breastplate of the Demon King soldiers.

Although this longbow has such an advantage of long range, because the bow body is too long, if it is usual, for the sake of convenience, they will only bring ordinary bows and arrows, but now that it is a siege, Zhao Nan immediately asked them to bring a longbow.

In this way, when the Demon King's soldiers had no slings or bows and arrows, they could only be beaten passively.

But the commander of the Demon King's soldiers was not a fool, and after the initial panic under his command, most of the soldiers learned to hide their bodies under the protective walls to avoid the throwing stones and arrows that kept flying overhead.

But this is what Zhao Nan wanted, seeing that the time was ripe, he pulled out the big sword on his horse, and then shouted: "All the infantry, listen, start attacking the city immediately!"

And just like that, under the cover of catapults, as well as the longbows of three thousand cavalry. Five thousand soldiers shouted as they rushed towards the Demon King's castle.

At the same time as the sound of "pop, pop, pop......" sounded, dozens of ladders were erected on top of the city wall at a very fast speed, and the coalition soldiers below immediately climbed up as soon as the ladders were erected.

Faced with this situation, of course, the soldiers of the Demon King could not sit idly by, and they immediately stood up with their shields in their hands and tried to push the ladder down.

But under Zhao Nan's arrangement, the coalition soldiers seemed to have weapons ready to deal with them, and the first group of soldiers who went up were not holding the big swords used by ordinary soldiers, but the spears used in long-distance attacks.

This spear is not an ordinary spear, but simply a long, narrow and sharp blade tied to the top of the wooden handle. But the length reaches two to three meters.

In hand-to-hand combat, this spear is easy to be cut off by the opponent and is not conducive to combat, but during the siege, the soldiers of the coalition army use it to stab the defenders of the demon king above. It has a great killing effect.

"When, when, when, when......" It was like hail, and the crisp sound of arrows and shields striking could be heard everywhere.

Although the shield of the Demon King's soldiers can temporarily resist arrows. But in the face of the spears below and the arrows that keep flying. They couldn't stop it completely.

And because they were holding shields, it was very inconvenient for them to move, and some soldiers accidentally exposed their bodies while moving, and were immediately hit by arrows, and some were stabbed by spears stretched out like poisonous snakes from below.

At this time, the catapults were still throwing large stones at the city walls, as long as each stone could hit it. There will be a lot of casualties in the near future.

From the beginning when Zhao Nan gave the order until now, the three thousand cavalry have never stopped at all.

After each of them had finished shooting one arrow, they quickly mounted another arrow, as soon as they saw someone poking out of the protective wall. Shoot right away.

As for whether they will run out of arrows, they don't have to worry about it at all, because each of them has three arrows on them, and even if they run out, soldiers will bring them new ones immediately.

When he saw that the soldiers had climbed to the middle, Zhao Nan ordered the stone-throwing soldiers to adjust the angle higher, and they were only allowed to throw themselves into the castle, so as not to accidentally hit their own people.

Although there was no cover for throwing stones, many of the coalition soldiers were already approaching the top of the wall, and some of them had already thrown away their spears and used ordinary broad-bladed swords to attack the enemies above.

A coalition soldier was slashed in the face and fell off the ladder, and the men below followed and continued to slash at the soldiers above. If the soldier is hacked to death again, and then another person goes up, and if a third person dies, a fourth person goes up, as if it never stops.

"This is war...... Verdon said dumbfounded.

Under the cover of the longbows of the three thousand cavalry, the dense arrows continued to shoot like locusts at the soldiers of the demon king defending the city, and anyone who showed the slightest bit from their shields would be shot through immediately. Far more people were killed by arrows than by stoning, but the effect of catapults was more shocking.

The walls were filled with the wails and cries of wounded soldiers, and from time to time someone would fall to the ground after being shot by arrows, and the walls were covered with bloody handprints, brains, and blood everywhere.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Verdon was already stunned in the back, and he didn't expect such a one-sided situation at all. Widen glanced at the situation at the main gate by the way, but it was far from the situation here. The front gate is still in a state of stalemate, and it is not at all comparable to the battle situation here.

In fact, the result of such a one-sided reversal is not that Zhao Nan is very good at fighting, but whether it is the Abyss Alliance or the Demon King Castle, their methods of fighting are very shallow, basically the two armies fight against each other, and then fight for the number and equipment.

The tactics used by Zhao Nan were very simple, but they received a very good effect. Of course, the reason why it went so smoothly was Zhao Nan's secret arrangement.

These demon king soldiers guarding the west gate were actually deliberately arranged by Zhao Nan for Loki. And next, this siege battle will continue according to the haode script written by Zhao Nan.

......

Eventually, more and more Abyss Coalition soldiers managed to climb the city walls, covered by a rainstorm of arrows from behind. From the moment the Abyss Coalition soldiers climbed the castle walls, it meant that the real hand-to-hand combat was about to begin.

At the same time, the three thousand cavalry became much more cautious when shooting arrows, no longer shooting as soon as they saw people as they had just now, but selectively shooting the soldiers of the demon king who stood relatively open. lest you injure your own people by mistake.

Due to the attack of stones and arrows at the beginning, there were less than 4,000 soldiers left by the Demon King who had been left on the city wall, and two or three hundred of them were injured.

Faced with a steady stream of coalition soldiers, the Demon King's soldiers had no choice but to raise their weapons and engage them in hand-to-hand combat.

However, when it came time to actually fight, the soldiers of the coalition found that the other party was not as powerful as they looked like. Some even seem to be a little vain, as if they have just finished a serious illness.

Sometimes the two armies face each other by relying on a morale, and if the morale is gone, the battle will be lost.

At this time, the soldiers of the Demon King were in this state. They seem to have completely lost their former bravery. It's also a bit soft and soft.

On the contrary, the morale of the coalition soldiers is now soaring, and Verdon also rushed up with people, he really thought that he was going to make a meritorious service, so he also let go of his hands and feet to kill the enemy.

And so. The battle went on even more one-sidedly.

There was a soldier of the Demon King who was stabbed in the stomach, but he didn't die for a while. But the intestines in his stomach flowed out. When he fell to the ground. I watched my intestines being constantly trampled by the coalition soldiers or my own people in the fierce battle next to me, and trampled into a puddle of rotten meat.

There was also a soldier who had half of his head cut off, and his white brains flew everywhere.

Slowly, the soldiers of the Demon King, who were responsible for guarding the west gate of the castle, with less than 4,000 people, were divided into several large pieces by the coalition soldiers who kept climbing up to join the battle group, and then these groups of people huddled together to passively resist each other's attacks.

Facing the soldiers of the demon king who is obviously a little soft-handed. The Coalition soldiers slaughtered the encircled enemy mercilessly.

Many of the Demon King's soldiers were cut to the ground covered in blood by the besieging coalition soldiers, and some of them cried loudly to surrender, but no one paid any attention to him, and the other party continued to greet them with weapons in their hands.

One of the biggest differences between soldiers and generals is that they don't tell the enemy that if they surrender, they won't kill. As long as they do not receive an order to surrender, they will not stop unless they kill the enemy.

And above them, huge stones are still whistling and throwing into the city, if they hit people, they will only leave a puddle of flesh and blood, and if they don't, there will be an obvious shallow pit on the hard ground, which shows the power of this kind of stone-throwing.

It didn't take long for this one-sided situation to come to an end, because by this time all the soldiers of the Demon King who could stand had been killed, and the only ones who were still alive were some of the Demon King's soldiers who had just been seriously injured by the arrow and were lying on the ground.

Looking at the corpses of the Demon King's soldiers everywhere in the city wall, those who had just killed the red-eyed Verdon suddenly had a feeling of disbelief, because everything seemed to be going too well, and they almost occupied the west gate of the Demon King's castle without any strong resistance from the enemy.

"We succeeded?" said Verdon as he trembled as he looked at his hand.

Regardless of the outcome of this war, he managed to break through a city gate for the coalition forces, which is already a big enough credit. After successfully capturing the city wall, Verdon's first thought was to immediately notify the large army and let the large army of the coalition use this as a gap to destroy the entire Demon King's Castle.

Just as Verdon was about to release the flare, Zhao Nan held his hand from the side, "Wait." ”

"What are you doing?" Although he was already a little impatient, seeing that it was Zhao Nan, Wei Deng still chose to stop first.

"If you inform the others at this time, then your credit will be taken away quickly, you think. Zhao Nan said.

"However, if we don't inform the others, this place will soon be discovered by the soldiers in the Demon King's Castle, and once they send reinforcements, our side will definitely not be able to withstand it. Verdon said worriedly.

"I know this, but because of this, I can't tell anyone else. Zhao Nan said, glancing at the battle situation at the main gate.

Because the Demon King Castle directly let people lead the troops to rush out at the beginning, most of the strength of the Abyss Alliance was attracted by the Demon King soldiers at the main gate, and no one noticed that the west gate here had been breached.

It's still a good opportunity.

"Think about it, once you notify the others, your credit will be divided equally if it will not be snatched away, in that case, why not take the rest of the credit alone. Zhao Nan saw Wei Deng's earnest thoughts, and then said in a deep voice.

Verdon thought for a moment, visibly hesitating.

"Rush into the Demon King's Castle with our people here, and then kill the Demon King, and this war will be over. Seeing this, Zhao Nan took a dose of fierce medicine, "When the time comes, you will be the hero of this war, and even the pillar of the abyss will look at you differently." ”

Zhao Nan's words came into Verdon's head like a magic spell, and after struggling slightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Leonardo, I believe you." ”

"That's it. Zhao Nan patted Verdon's shoulder and smiled.

So, Zhao Nan immediately followed Jihua's arrangement and asked Wei Deng to lead people to sneak into the Demon King's castle from the west gate. Because the place has already been captured, even if it enters with thousands of troops, almost no one will come out to stop it.

In fact, there is no way that anyone will stop it, because the guards along the way have already been transferred by Loki. Verdon also naively thought that the firepower of the main gate had attracted all the guards of the Demon King's Castle, which was why he would sneak into the castle so easily.

There is another thing that Verdon didn't know, not long after he left with his troops, those Demon King soldiers who had been killed actually slowly stood up.

Yes, they really stood up, even if their heads were cut off in half, their intestines dragged out, and even their bodies were smashed to pieces by boulders, they were slowly standing up.

As if going back in time, the bodies of these demon king soldiers were slowly reorganizing, and the injuries on their bodies were gradually healed in a mass of black lightning, and they had fully recovered in a short time.

A person walked out of the city wall at the west gate of the castle, looked at the direction Zhao Nan and Wei Deng left, and muttered: "Mr. Zhao Nan is doing that, and he actually arranged for the soldiers of the immortal battalion to pretend to be invincible here and then bring the enemy army in himself?"

This person is naturally Loki, he learned from Caroline what Zhao Nan confessed, so he arranged for the undead battalion soldiers in the Demon King's army to guard the west gate.

These soldiers have been modified by the Black Demon Lord, and all of them are immortal, similar to the player's physique, and it is almost impossible for them to die as long as the damage number does not exceed their maximum health.

Soon, a soldier who had recovered walked up to Loki and reported: "Report, Jihua succeeded, the immortal battalion sent 5,000 soldiers, the sacrifice was 0, and the wounded were 0......"

"Hmm. ”

Loki nodded in response, then turned around and left, he still needed to continue acting according to Zhao Nan's next explanation, so he had to leave as soon as possible. (To be continued......)
