The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 895

Fifty thousand dwarf warriors lined up in formation and slowly pressed toward the magnificent castle on the mountains hundreds of meters high in front of them.

Behind them were huge steel structures with huge chimneys and thick, acrid black smoke. Driven by dozens of rollers, they made huge roars and followed the dwarf warriors in front.

"preparation!!"

"put!!!"

boom!Boom boom boom! !

Any civilization that has developed so far and can become a major protagonist in Feynman's world naturally has its own merits.

Human cavalry formations, siege chariots improved by alchemical art and magic, ancient war trees transformed by elves with natural creations, and behemoths tamed by the orc empire that are comparable to dragons and giants.
  The dwarves, however, took their excellent forging skills to the extreme and combined them with alchemy materials that did not require too much effort to create a cannon that could fire hundreds of pounds of fine iron shells with a range of several thousand meters.

RDX gunpowder has been invented for many years. Apart from its frequent use in alchemy, it has few other uses. Even though its flammable and explosive characteristics have long been noticed and gunpowder guns that can be used by ordinary people have been developed, its power, range and even pose no great threat to ordinary soldiers.

In this magical world where low-level warriors can throw a standard javelin hundreds of meters away by throwing it with their body alone, the gunpowder gun, which after several improvements was far inferior in power and range, finally became a worthless existence and was soon replaced by People give up.

Without the follow-up technological improvements and breakthroughs, the gunpowder guns of this era will eventually stop in the era of flintlock guns. If there are no accidents, there will be no prospect of gunpowder guns in the future.

However, the master craftsmen of the Dwarf Kingdom found another way. The gunpowder gun used by a single person did not have much power, so they placed more RDX, made larger and heavier bullets, and engraved enough talismans on the bullets. Although In this way, it is naturally impossible for one person and ten people to use such a heavy weapon, but it is also appropriate as a siege weapon in the army of the Dwarf Kingdom.

Although the heavy artillery of tens of thousands of pounds is a drag, and the manpower required for marching is at least dozens, but for the majesty of an army of hundreds of thousands, this manpower burden is not difficult.

The talisman system invented by the dwarf civilization also has its own miraculous features. For example, the requirements for attachment materials are not high, and the probability of success is not small. On a fine iron marble weighing hundreds of pounds, skilled craftsmen can carve and smelt dozens of sigils. A talisman is projected from a distance using RDX, and the power of a cannonball is almost as powerful as a legendary strike.

Of course, like the siege vehicles invented by humans, instruments such as artillery move slowly. Even if the cannon is ejected from the chamber, the speed is only equivalent to an arrow shot from a hundred-pound bow. It is not difficult for mid-to-high-level warriors to dodge.

On the contrary, immovable building areas such as castles and fortresses are good targets for artillery to show off their skills. Just think about dozens or hundreds of cannonballs with the power of legendary strongmen exploding continuously on a city or fortress. , even if this fortress is entirely made of fine iron, it may not be perfect.

What Graybeard brought this time was all the artillery of their front-line legions, a total of twenty-five. Graybeard spent a lot of energy and money just to transport these sharp weapons, and he was also uneasy for fear of a war. Something unexpected happened, putting these strategic weapons in your hands in danger.

But who made the leader in the south who showed the power of the saint so stubborn? Since he couldn't persuade the other party, and the other party asked his soldiers to attack mainly, he could only risk transporting the artillery from the city hundreds of miles away. come over.

As a huge roar sounded, waves of gray and white dust rose up from the high wall in the distance, accompanied by faint wailing and roaring sounds.

The strong elves hiding in the city jumped to the top of the city one after another. Before they could reach the artillery array behind the dwarf army, Allen led a group of strong men from the wilderness and dwarves to kill them.

Whoosh whoosh! ! Faced with a barrage of arrows that were faster than the others, Allen raised his hand and struck the sword with his heavy sword. There was a clanking sound, but the heavy strength of the arrows could not shake Allen at all.

Although some arrows bypassed the broad blade and struck Allen from the side, at the same time, Allen's smoke wave stepped a little in the air and suddenly accelerated, and the arrows directly passed by his body.

"kill!!"

The dozens of tall and short strong men following Allen flashed in their eyes and roared with high morale. At the same time, Ye Liang used his methods and went straight to the elf opponent in front, not afraid of the fact that the number of his own strong men was slightly inferior.

The strong men on both sides instantly set off waves of violence in the air, and powerful winds swept around. Even the dwarf legions charging forward on the ground and the wilderness legions supporting them were also greatly disturbed.

Albad was originally a great help to the strong men in the wilderness, but now in order to take care of the actions of the hundreds of thousands of wilderness soldiers below and take this opportunity to sharpen them, he did not press forward, but was covered with various After casting protective magic, he flew into the sky, chanting some words and throwing out several powerful electric spells, while constantly looking down at the earth and using amplification to direct the officers at his feet to change formations and move.

Although the soldiers of the wilderness army are currently only supporting the side and are not the main force attacking the enemy, many of the new soldiers have never seen such a large battle. Various emotions are on their faces, which can be regarded as a feeling in advance. It's called real battlefield fighting.

"Archer Legion, Javelin Legion!!"

"Go forward one thousand meters!!"

"."

Orders came from the mouth of the short goblin with white hair above him. Although he was invisible and majestic, he could make everyone in the group of officers and soldiers obey.

The closer you get to the frontline battlefield, the more dangerous it becomes. Although the Elf Legion in the city is suppressed by dozens of dwarf cannons, it is definitely impossible to do it with more than twenty cannons alone on the city walls more than ten miles wide. All suppressed.

Therefore, after the elven warriors who were good at bow and arrow shooting became familiar with the frequency of dwarf siege artillery, they gradually began to take advantage of the intervals between artillery firings to emerge and fight back against the approaching dwarves and wilderness soldiers below.

The cracks in the city wall area that were originally cut out by Alan's sword have long been repaired by the elves, but the natural color difference between the old and new city walls is still very huge.

No matter how bad Gray Beard was at commanding, he still had basic strategies and tactics. Under his command, the twenty-five artillery pieces were all aimed at this area and fired. A shell fell and exploded on the city wall. Potholes several meters wide.

If it falls into the newly repaired area, the pothole will be even deeper. If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the city is blasted open again.

And looking at this trend, it won't take long to break through the city's defenses.
