The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.

Chapter 643: Attack 1 city first

Jiang Jian and his men were still somewhat capable. After being suppressed for a long time, they did not have many troops at the beginning.

However, the higher the level of the treasure chest, the higher the level of the wild monsters guarding it, and the number of them is terrifyingly large.

Even if you are a hero, it is not easy to challenge these difficult wild monsters if you have no soldiers.

Moreover, the more troops there are, the stronger the hero's specialization effect will be.

Jiang Jian and his team then developed a strategy to target the enemy's morale.

The morale of wild monsters is generally not too high, basically at the normal morale stage of 45-74.

If you find some heroes with good equipment, and let all the priest heroes treat these heroes with good equipment, the others can assist in output.

Because the people in front are well-equipped, the damage they take is not high, and their output is also high, so they can hold the hatred steadily.

With the help of a priest for treatment, basically, as long as the wild monster's attack power is not abnormal and can kill people instantly by charging, even the strongest wild monster can be slowly killed.

Since these people have organized a guild, they naturally play a lot of different games on a daily basis.

When going through various dungeons, the most important thing is that the tank can hold its own.

Therefore, these knights, equipped with top-grade damage-reducing equipment, can only feel a tickle from the attacks of the phantom archers.

Of course, no equipment is completely immune. Most of the damage they reduce is physical damage. If they have to face spells, they can only wait for death.

They just saw that there seemed to be no magician in Xu Lai's team, so they dared to rush forward bravely.

However, Reina was still equipped with the Forbidden Magic Ball, so neither side could actively cast spells, which helped them avoid this problem.

Xu Lai himself trained physical soldiers, and the number of enemy heroes far exceeded his own. If he used spells, it would be very unprofitable for his side.

The most important thing is that our side must form a corps, but the enemy does not need to do so.

Those heroes can use strategic spells as long as they bring some soldiers with them.

Even if they could not learn high-level spells, and could just randomly release a thunderbolt and kill some of Xu Lai's soldiers, Xu Lai would still be at a loss.

This is not impossible. In fact, when fighting against the stronghold, the mercenaries recruited by Xu Lai liked to do this.

Mercenaries live on the grassland, so their riding skills are naturally not low, and the orcs usually cannot catch up with them.

Get close, cast a few spells, then run away on horseback. After a few trips back and forth, you can easily wipe out orcs that are several times your number.

The spells cast by mercenaries are just ordinary spells, but the spells cast by heroes are strategic spells.

If there is no way, then forget it. But if there is a way, Xu Lai still wants to reduce the losses and does not want to be led by the enemy.

The morale of the wild monsters is low. As long as you get through the most difficult period, you will soon encounter a negative morale buff.

When morale drops to zero and the enemy is defeated, even the Level 1 militia can be sent out without any worries to slaughter at will.

Jiang Jian’s idea was actually very correct. He used the heroes with luxurious equipment to withstand a wave of long-range damage.

As long as these 3000 cavalrymen get close, those low-level soldiers who are similar to militiamen, no matter how powerful the heroes leading them are, will be like chickens and dogs.

If we charge and kill a few thousand people, the morale of our side will inevitably increase greatly, while the morale of the enemy will inevitably decrease greatly.

At that time, even if the enemy's cavalry looks very powerful and has a strong negative buff, they may not be our opponent.

However, they did not expect that the tactics that had been invincible in the past against wild monsters and had been used by groups of tens of thousands of wild monsters to win, were now on the verge of collapse after just a rain of arrows.

There are actually two most important reasons why Jiang Jian’s tactics were successful in the past.

One is to ensure that the front row does not die. As long as they are not killed instantly, they can always be pulled back by taking medicine and treatment.

The second reason is that Jiang Jian was generous and knew to give priority to arming those tanks in the front row who were fighting for their lives.

They ran to the grassland, ventured deep into hell, opened countless treasure chests, and basically armed themselves with all the goodies they found.

Immortality and huge benefits made these heroes willing to work for Jiang Jian, and they even elected him as the city lord.

Unfortunately, the opponent that Jiang Jian and his team encountered this time was not a wild monster, but Xu Lai.

High morale, ultimate prayer, ultimate archery and the phantom shooter, known as the strongest shooter.

This combination was so powerful that more than 50 knight heroes with slightly worse equipment were killed in one round of volleys.

Due to the fall of the Western Empire, except for a few heroes who surrendered to Hell, almost all the heroes who descended from the Western Empire poured into several cities on the border.

In Longan City alone, there are nearly 500 descended heroes, which is not a small number.

However, a small number of enemy archers killed one-tenth of them with a single volley, and these were the tenth with the best equipment.

The shock this brought was really too great.

The others were far away on the city wall and might not have felt anything.

But the hearts of the other 50 knight heroes standing beside those dead knights sank to the bottom of the valley at this moment.

Because this was a charge, the priest was unable to keep up and naturally had no time to provide treatment.

Not only did they wear the best equipment, they also specially added buffs before charging. Each of them carried two non-conflicting treatment methods.

But at this moment, most people were killed instantly before they even had time to use any means.

The remaining 50 riders had very little health left. Even if they took potions to restore their health, they might not be able to survive the next round of arrow rain.

Sure enough, in just less than two seconds, the phantom archers had completed a series of operations including taking arrows, aiming and shooting.

The next wave of arrows came earlier than expected.

Some recruited knights who came up to fill in the gaps helped them share some of the damage, but Gisele and the others still mainly targeted these particularly dazzling knight heroes.

The unique and luxurious equipment on their bodies allows the enemy to distinguish them at a glance.

As a tank, each knight has a high health value, but there are not many top-level life potions, and many people's health values ​​are not full at all.

In addition, this wave of arrow rain was more targeted at them, and the number of arrows each person had to withstand increased by almost one third.

In this rain of arrows, not only dozens of recruited knights fell, but most of the remaining less than 50 knight heroes were also killed.

Now, the remaining dozen or so strongest heroes could no longer hold on. They knew that if they didn't run away, they would definitely die in the next round.

There is no other way. The last life-saving item, the Life Stone, can only replenish 500 health points, which is not enough at all.

Most of the companions around were missing, and even if knights were recruited to fill in, each person would suffer at least half more damage.

Not to mention the extra half of the damage, even the initial damage was not something they could bear. Several knight heroes hurriedly pulled the reins of their horses, trying to stop.

However, they forgot that they were still charging, and even if they stopped, the friendly forces behind them would not stop.

With a bang, several knights who had pulled the reins of their horses were knocked off their horses by the recruited knights behind them. Not only did they trip up countless knights behind them, but they themselves were also trampled to the point of being in danger of death.

The others were smarter and knew they couldn't stop at this point, so they controlled their horses to disperse from both sides before they could make contact.

It doesn't matter if they run to the sides, the thousands of recruited knights behind them can only charge when they are led by heroes or generals.

The hero with thousands of knights hanging around has the best equipment and the most status, and still has half of his health left.

However, he had now completely forgotten that he was leading more than 2000 knights and was just fleeing for his life.

Of course, those knights followed their commander and made a big circle in front of the Qingfeng Legion's position.

As soon as they ran away, Xu Lai really let them go and ordered the trainee archers and crossbowmen in the formation to shoot arrows.

The attack range of these archers and crossbowmen is not far. If the enemy hides on the city wall, they will probably have to go under the wall before they have a chance to shoot.

However, these knights delivered themselves to the archers, and some of them were unable to turn in time and even landed within the archers' optimal shooting range.

Even though these shooters are only level 2 or 3, with the support of the Angel Alliance and the Statue of the God of War, their basic attack and defense alone have increased by 26 points.

21 points of attack and defense, plus the 5 points of strength of the God of War Statue, is 26 points of basic damage, not counting the tactical bonus.

Coupled with the morale buff and prayer buff, in addition to the range, the damage is comparable to that of a tier 5, 6, or even tier 7 wild monster shooter.

In addition, among these 5 people, there were more than 7 archers. With one round of crossbow arrows, at least 800 to cavalrymen were knocked down.

This is because most shooters can only shoot blindly into the air.

If Xu Lai could disperse the archers as much as possible and form the most advantageous shooting formation, I'm afraid half of the knights would be killed with one volley.

The remaining half was blocked by the people in front, otherwise he would have died too.

On the city wall, Jiang Jian and others almost popped their eyes out when they saw this scene.

"You, help me check, are those shooters really only at level 2 or 3?"

Jiang Jian himself has reconnaissance skills, and Xu Lai did not use any camouflage on the troops. When he approached them two days ago, he had already detected Xu Lai's strength.

He could be sure that the infantry led by Xu Lai were mainly of level 2 and 3.

Otherwise, he would not dare to send people to attack the formation of more than 5 people.

But he never expected that with just a simple round of volleys, one third of the cavalry unit he had carefully built was wiped out.

You know, there are many level 6 knights here that he upgraded with great effort, and their defense is only slightly inferior to those heroes.

The knights were very fast, and the archers were also fast in replacing their arrows, and soon they launched a second round of volleys.

With Xu Lai just sitting there, there were tactical amplification and speed effects, and almost every shooter's agility increased by nearly 10 points.

The 5 points of all attributes of the Angel Alliance and the Statue of War are the most terrifying enhancements to low-level troops.

With a total increase of 26 points in attack and defense and 30 points in attributes, even an ordinary rank 2 apprentice archer can be instantly promoted to the level of a rank 5 sharpshooter.

In this situation, as long as the infantry in the front row can control their fear, even if the enemy really rushes in, at most they can only kill a few hundred infantry in the front row by relying on the charge effect.

They don't even have the ability to quickly create a gap, and the subsequent cavalry charging in may not have the environment to output damage.

Of course, since they were new recruits going to the battlefield for the first time, Xu Lai couldn't guarantee anything, so it would be better to shoot all the leaders to death.

In the second wave of arrow rain, the density became much thinner due to the sudden decrease in the number of enemies, and the hit rate was reduced by at least half.

After killing 500 people, the third wave of arrows could only chase the enemy's butts. Many of them reached the edge of the maximum range, and even fewer people died, only more than 300.

But even so, the enemy was almost wiped out just by turning a corner in front of the formation.

The number of knights who finally ran back, plus the few surviving knight heroes, was less than a thousand.

Jiang Jian wanted to undermine Xu Lai's morale, but not only did he not kill any enemy, but his own morale almost collapsed.

Fortunately, Longan City also mainly recruits soldiers, and the number of conscripted soldiers is not large.

“Go, take out all the money in the treasury, and hire all the mercenaries from the mercenary guild.

Also, push all the ballistae to the city wall, bring up all the refugees, and give each of them some stones."

On the city wall, Jiang Jian was making final arrangements in despair.

Under the city wall, Xu Lai just advanced slowly, and then ordered the phantom shooters to eliminate the enemy's long-range forces at a targeted location.

There are many high-level enemy archers, and with the support of arrow towers, their shooting range is not inferior to that of phantom archers.

And with the damage bonus from the arrow tower, even if the phantom archer's phantom heavy bow can ignore the damage reduction of the city wall, the damage will not be much less.

The hero in charge of archers naturally also has the ultimate archery skill. The only difference is that the phantom archer also has the special defense skill.

The damage reduction effect of the shooter on her side is ignored by the phantom shooter, and her defense level is not as good as Rena's, not to mention that Rena also has a specialty in defense.

The 5 points of Constitution of the God of War Statue can bring 5 points of basic defense and 25 points of health to the Phantom Shooter.

With the addition of the Holy Blood Bottle, almost every Phantom Shooter has the health of an 8th-level shooter.

In this situation, the number of phantom shooters is not less than that of the opponent, and with the support of special defensive skills, it is obvious that the opponent's shooter falls first.

After all the enemy shooters were killed or wounded, our level 2 and level 3 shooters could finally advance to the moat with confidence.

Just under the city wall, they suppressed the infantry on the wall with firepower.

Then a large number of our own infantry, led by captains such as Brandi, bravely climbed the enemy's city walls.

First it was the knights, then the archers. The morale of the soldiers in Longan City had already begun to show negative effects.

This made the Longan City infantry, which was already inferior to the enemy, even more powerless to resist.

If it weren't for heroes like Jiang Jian who were still resisting stubbornly and occasionally killing one or two infantrymen, Xu Lai might have been able to capture Long'an City without any casualties.

However, Xu Lai had already given orders and there was no need for the soldiers of the Qingfeng Legion to take over Longan City immediately.

Any injured soldier can find a safe place to rest first.

After we capture Long'an City, the priests accompanying the army will provide treatment. (End of this chapter)
