Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 1871: Attack on the Royal City

Freeman never thought that his life would be so exciting. At this moment, he was sitting in the Mercedes-Benz chariot, watching the four soldiers around him pedaling the chariot violently.

Theoretically, all four people can step on the pedals to power the chariot. Only when fighting will one person provide power, and the rest of the people will fight.

Thanks to all the people living in the eco-drum, the roads here are quite flat. The originally paved roads are very wide, and even though they have been used for thousands of years, they have been damaged to some extent. After a simple repair, vehicles can still pass smoothly.

The people behind also used a similar method, using tricycles to carry soldiers and supplies and maneuvering behind.

Because many people could ride bicycles, the marching speed of this legion of several hundred people was far beyond imagination. After the castle on the border was breached, the lords inside the defense line didn't even have time to react before they passed through their territories and rushed towards the direction of the royal city.

They even thought that they could reach the gate of the royal city that night at their own speed, but Freeman was still very worried. The Tower Kingdom was the most powerful of the four kingdoms. And they were the true descendants of the royal family, so they probably had quite a few cards in their hands.

Under such circumstances, besieging the royal city was not a wise choice. As long as the castle gates were closed, they would probably have no chance.

Lan Nuo was not worried about this. Generally speaking, the war between the four kingdoms would only result in the loss of some people, and it was difficult to really determine the winner. One of the main reasons was that once the castle gates were closed, it was almost impossible to break through.

Because the gates of castles are often built with ancient materials. Once locked from the inside, they cannot be opened from the outside, no matter how hard you cut or how hard you cut, you cannot open them.

This is one of the important reasons why the four kingdoms still exist despite years of war. With the castle made of ancient materials, the wars of this era are more defensive than offensive. As long as they hide in the castle, a dozen people may be able to resist hundreds of troops.

Lan Nuo was not worried at all because he brought many power-driven devices with him this time. There were a lot of charging ports inside the eco-drum, which were easily found all over the world. As long as they connected these power devices that they didn't know how to use to these charging ports, these ancient devices would start to work. After they mastered the use of these ancient products, the originally indestructible city gates would not be a big deal. As long as they could defeat the enemy in the field and occupy the tower city, it would only be a matter of time.

The next morning, the army, which had rested the night before, was ready to go. They arrived at the gate of the High Tower with full spirits. This scene frightened the King of the High Tower. The enemy army arrived at the gate of the royal city overnight. Could it be that all the lords and families he had given out were good-for-nothings? They didn't even come. They gave him advance notice.

However, with such a small number of people, they were just bluffing at best. Although the troops in the royal city were not too many, there were still thousands of them. No matter how you think about it, it is impossible for them to be defeated by this group of guys. Thinking of this, the king decisively issued an order to take the initiative to attack and wipe out this group of ignorant enemies.

The army of the royal city was obviously much more elite than the border army. As the city gates opened, teams of soldiers walked out of the gates in formation.

They wore exquisite armor, tough cloth and metal armor sewn together, protecting most of the body, and the protective effect was comparable to that of chain mail. The only flaw might be that it was not particularly convenient to move. It was a bit like a low-profile plate armor knight. But in this era, being able to piece together hundreds of uniformly armored legions was already a very luxurious configuration.

Among these troops were the king's trump card sword and shield soldiers, who were equipped with large shields that could be put together to form a shield wall, and spears could be extended from the gaps between the shields to cooperate with the soldiers behind them to kill the approaching enemies.

However, these shields are also very heavy, and only carefully selected strong soldiers can carry them and march on the battlefield.

No country had ever forced the king to use this army in the past. This also meant that although this army was well-equipped and well-trained, there was a problem that they actually lacked actual combat experience.

Almost no one attacked the capital, which meant that they hardly participated in any actual combat.

However, even though they had never participated in any actual combat, they were still very confident, lined up in neat rows, and advanced with shields raised.

Their shields did play a significant role. Although the crossbows' attack distance became longer and their power became stronger after the pulleys were used, they still could not cause effective damage when facing heavy shields.

However, under the projectiles, the people in the back row were not so lucky. Especially the archers who were responsible for suppressing the long-range firepower. The enemy's range was farther than theirs. So they were now shooting randomly, but they could not reach the enemy at all, and they would suffer continuous casualties from the enemy's attacks.

However, relatively speaking, they have a greater psychological advantage due to their larger numbers. Even though they suffered casualties first, their morale has not collapsed.

Even when he saw the human-powered tricycle rushing towards him, he managed to hold his position and not flee.

Seeing the tricycles lined up in a neat row and rushing towards them, the Jingwei soldiers in the first row hurriedly stuck their shields into the ground. In this way, relying on the friction brought by the earth, the shields could withstand stronger impacts.

At the same time, the soldiers who were constantly accelerating the chariot were also very nervous. The enemy had fled without a fight before. They won without any direct confrontation. But this time the enemy was full of fighting spirit. The shield was stuck in the ground, and they were going to crash into it. If it was a flesh and blood body, it would hit the shield at this speed. Even if it didn't die, it would probably break a bone. They could only hope that the chariot under their feet really had enough impact force to break the enemy's defense.

At this moment, everyone bent down and gave up the attack. They adjusted the pedals to the maximum gear. Then they began to pedal frantically. The power of the four people was combined, plus the energy stored in the spring. This time, the tricycle showed an unprecedented speed. The speed was close to 4 kilometers per hour, which was qualified to drive on the motor vehicle lane. The weight of these cars was also less than half a ton. At this time, the elite soldiers hiding behind the shields rushed over at high speed. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. Facing such an enemy, they lost confidence in the shields in their hands for the first time. Originally, these shields were only used to defend against human attacks, but the chariots that were rushing over at this time were beyond their understanding. However, it was precisely because it was beyond their understanding that they did not have a clear understanding of the kinetic energy carried by the chariots that were rushing over. This was also the source of their courage to stand here with their shields in hand.

If they were as aware of the power of car accidents as the people on Earth, I'm afraid no one would dare to stand here. The speed is already quite high, and the damage if it hits a human body would be even more exaggerated.

As the chariot crashed into the shield with a loud bang, its advance was not stopped as the soldiers had imagined.

Instead, the soldiers in the first row holding shields were knocked out, flying three or four meters into the air. The speed of the chariot only dropped slightly, and it continued to rush forward, crushing the spearmen in front. The spears hit the armor of the chariot and could not cause any damage. Those who reacted quickly dodged to the sides, while those who reacted slowly were directly crushed by the wheels.

The speed of the car slowed down a lot as it passed through the crowd. But as the clockwork continued to output and the people in the car pedaled hard, the speed increased again. The archers in the back row were dumbfounded. They had witnessed the terrifying power displayed by these metal monsters before, and they had no training and did not know how to face the chariots, so they immediately fled.

Lan Nuo took the opportunity to lead a group of cyclists to outflank from both wings at a faster speed. On the chaotic battlefield, dozens of elite warriors on bicycles rushed towards the city gate while it was still open.

  The soldiers at the city gate tried to close the gate in a hurry, but these soldiers on bicycles had been trained to steer with one hand and pick up the crossbows at their waists with the other hand.

This is a specially made crossbow that can fire six bursts of shots in a row. In fact, six bowstrings are designed on the crossbow and can be released one after another.

This thing is designed to have a high enough firepower density in a short period of time. After firing these six rounds, this thing will no longer have any combat effectiveness, and it can only be rewound after the battle is over.

But this was enough. This density of firepower was unprecedented. Several soldiers responsible for closing the city gate were shot into hedgehogs in an instant. This made the people behind them dare not step forward and let these strange soldiers on bicycles rush into the city gate.

There has probably never been a war in history that was so disastrous. After Lan Nuo led these people into the city gate, he cut the ropes of the suspension bridge to ensure that the follow-up troops could enter the city smoothly. This meant that the equipment similar to the angle grinder and the equipment similar to the laser cutter he brought before were no longer needed here.

He had originally prepared himself for the possibility that others would be able to close the city gate in time. If the city gate was closed in time, he would have to find a way to cut the gate open directly. This was not too difficult with the electric equipment he brought. The material of the city gate was indeed indestructible to the cold weapons of people of this era, but for a high-speed rotating electric saw, it was not difficult and the city gate could be easily cut open. However, that would undoubtedly result in more casualties and more accidents in the siege.

The general in charge of guarding the city saw someone rushing in from the city gate. He got anxious and picked up his sword and rushed out with his guards to intercept the person rushing into the city gate. Although the front-line army had collapsed in the chariot attack and the subsequent infantry stranglehold, as long as the city gate could be closed again, the city could still be defended.

So the top priority now is to get rid of this group of people riding strange machines.

The general holding the big sword is considered a warrior among this race. He is obviously taller than the people around him and wears heavy armor, but he can still move freely. It can be seen that he is much stronger than ordinary people.

Freeman beside Lanno couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's Ulanto, the first warrior of the Tower Kingdom! It is said that his strength can lift the city gate! It's over, he is coming to kill us."

  Lan Nuo rolled his eyes, feeling helpless about the incompetent lord beside him. Their weapons and equipment were so advanced, what were they afraid of?

It is indeed difficult to deal with a fully armed warrior in armor. The advanced materials of the aliens make it difficult to hurt the person in the armor with long-range attacks. Only by knocking the opponent to the ground in close combat and then attacking through the gaps in the armor can it be possible to defeat such an enemy wearing full body armor.

If only the local aborigines were charging this time, it would be a bit troublesome. Unfortunately, Lan Nuo was the leader this time, and he was the only one who was not wearing armor. For him, armor was completely unnecessary. He was seen riding a bicycle with a screwdriver in his hand, and rushing towards the first warrior of the High Tower Kingdom.

Ulanto was a little uncomfortable facing an opponent riding a bicycle at high speed, but he still raised the big knife in his hand like playing baseball, ready to chop off the enemy's head when he came.

Unfortunately, although he was very strong, the armor on his body still made his movements much clumsy. Lan Nuo slightly adjusted his posture and just narrowly missed the sword. In the blink of an eye, the screwdriver in his hand had already hit the sturdy man's body several times in succession.

After the two sides crossed, before Ulanto could react to what happened, she heard a clanking sound, and her armor actually fell off. By the time she realized what happened, Lan Nuo had already turned around and rushed over again. This time, the screwdriver in his hand tapped him a few times, and then there was another sound of metal falling off.

After two rounds, his turtle shell was stripped off completely. With a whooshing sound, Ulantuo fell to the ground screaming, covering his knees.

No matter how powerful a warrior is, he has no power to resist a volley of arrows. The human body is so fragile without the protection of armor.

The king, who was watching this scene in the castle, dropped his wine glass to the ground with a thud. Everything happened too fast. Yesterday was a peaceful day as usual, but today a group of aggressive soldiers rushed into his court and put a knife to his neck. All this even made the king feel like he was still asleep.
