Chapter 355 Guiyu City Attack and Defense ([-])
In a sea of ​​silver, dozens of heavy-duty trebuchets and siege towers moved forward slowly.

"The artillerymen are ready!" Zhao Jian roared.

Hearing this, the artilleryman quickly adjusted the angle of the artillery, aiming the muzzle of the black hole at the huge siege equipment.

Zhao Jian kept observing the enemy's distance through the binoculars. When the enemy entered the range of the artillery, he shouted: "Let go!"

"Zizzizi!"

The fuses of the cannons were ignited, and the rumbling sound of the cannons resounded throughout the world, and dozens of shells went straight to the enemy's army formation.

Seeing dozens of iron balls whizzing towards him, the formation of the dinosaurs suddenly panicked.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

When the shells fell, they immediately cleared several blood paths, and countless stumps and broken arms stained the ground red.

A trebuchet was directly hit by a shell, and it collapsed. The thick logs fell heavily, and the flesh and blood of the nearby dinosaurs were flying.

Before encountering the enemy, he lost dozens of people on his side, and it was very ugly that the generals of the dinosaurs became lighter.

With the sound of the whining horn, the dinosaurs began to charge.

The infantry covered the archers and ran forward quickly, and the dinosaur man ran at an extremely fast speed, and soon rushed to a place hundreds of meters away from the city.

At such a fast speed, the artillery has no time to aim.

The generals of the dinosaurs found the weakness of the artillery, the mysterious weapon of human beings, which can deal with long-distance targets, but as long as they rush over quickly, they will not pose any threat to themselves.

With a wave of his hand, a phalanx of thousands of people walked out of the army, and the dinosaur soldiers charged towards the city carrying ladders.

The archers defending the city bent their bows and set their arrows, quietly waiting for the enemy to reach within the range of the bows and arrows.

The continuous roar of the artillery and the condescending bombardment increased the range of the artillery a lot. With the advantage of the range, the dinosaur trebuchet could not fight back effectively at all, and could only push the heavy trebuchet forward against the shells.

The soldiers near the trebuchet and the siege tower suffered heavy casualties. This kind of hastily built wooden siege equipment basically fell apart as long as it was hit by a shell. The casualties caused by the falling wood were worse than those directly hit by the shell. There are many.

The infantry of the dinosaurs slowed down when they were more than 200 meters away from the city wall, and the shield-hands held their shields and bent forward slowly.

As the enemy entered the range, after the guard gave an order, the dense rain of arrows seemed to cover the sky.

The arrow whizzed down and hit the shield with a clanging sound.

From time to time, an enemy fell to the ground with a muffled grunt when he was shot by an arrow, and the exposed gap was quickly filled by the soldiers behind.

"Wow!"

There was a sound of rubbing armor plates, and the shield hand quickly made a gap that was as wide as one person. The empty man's archer quickly stepped forward, bent his bow and set an arrow, and started shooting towards the top of the city.

The archers on both sides came and went, and countless arrows shuttled through the air, harvesting fresh lives.

After destroying more than a dozen of the enemy's trebuchets, they finally advanced within range. The feeling of being passively beaten made the dinosaur general extremely depressed.

After the trebuchet stopped, he immediately ordered to start fighting back.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Dozens of burning fireballs pierced the sky and slammed heavily on the city wall. The violent impact made the soldiers on the city wall feel as if they had experienced an earthquake.

The fireball fell in the city and immediately set the house on fire, and the militiamen hurriedly fetched water to put out the fire.Houses with brick and wood structure, if the fire is not extinguished in time, the fire is likely to spread rapidly.

The screams and killing sounds seemed to be the only voice in the world.

The wounded soldiers on the city wall let out a shrill howl, and the auxiliary soldiers shuttled non-stop on the city wall, carrying stretchers to transport the wounded soldiers down the city wall in a hurry.

The sound of killing in Guiyu City was loud, and the dinosaur man carried the ladder, and after dropping down a large number of corpses, he finally rushed under the city wall.

With its flexible back, the dinosaur quickly climbed towards the city wall.

"Grenadier!"

The grenadier quickly stepped forward, ignited the fuze, and threw the grenade down the city wall.

Booming explosions came and went, and the dinosaur screamed and fell down the city wall several meters high.

"Whizzing!"

The archers condescendingly shot and killed the enemies on the ladder.

On the far horizon, several huge fireballs flew towards them quickly.

A soldier on the top of the wall was about to bend down to avoid it, but it was too late.

The huge fireball skipped over the city and hit him directly.

The fragile human body, under such a violent impact, all the bones in the whole body were instantly shattered. This miserable soldier flew upside down without even uttering a scream. The fire ignited his clothes, and the air was filled with bursts of of burnt smell.

Under the cover of the soldiers climbing the city wall, the dinosaur man pushed the crash car and rushed to the city gate quickly, and the huge ram continuously bombarded the heavy city gate.

The violent vibration caused the bricks at the city gate to loosen, and dust was constantly scattered.

"Quick, get the oil ready!"

The soldiers at the city gate poured barrels of oil down the city wall, and the viscous oil spilled on the crashed car, dyeing the crashed car's body black.

"set fire!"

One by one torches were thrown down, and the flame instantly ignited the oil.

The dinosaurs hiding in the crashed car let out a shrill scream, and one by one the firemen ran out of the crashed car, tumbling on the ground, howling, and fell to the ground dead after a short while.

The tragic casualties did not stop the enemy from attacking.

Under the cover of archers, the huge siege tower slowly moved forward.

Zhao Jian had never seen this kind of siege equipment before, but he didn't need to think about it. If he let this thing get close, he would definitely cause heavy casualties to his side.

"Gunner, aim at those things, and hit me hard!"

The artilleryman quickly adjusted the angle, and the shells flew towards the siege towers one after another.

But in the face of such a big guy, solid shells can't cause too much damage at all. After breaking a few logs, the siege tower still stood tall and slowly approached the city wall.

Seeing this, Zhao Jian was very anxious, his eyes rolled away, and when he saw the burning corpse at the city gate, he quickly shouted: "Archers, fire the rockets!"

The archers quickly dipped their arrows in the oil barrel, and there were small burning flames everywhere around them. They quickly ignited the arrows and shot towards the siege tower.

The burning arrows fell on the siege tower like raindrops, and quickly ignited the thing. The flames spread rapidly, and the siege tower several meters high blazed into flames.

A large number of dinosaurs jumped from high places in fear, screaming and falling to the ground.

But the enemy's attack was so fast that the human soldiers couldn't lift their heads when they were hit by shells from dozens of trebuchets.

Under the cover of catapults and archers, finally a few siege towers approached the city wall, but the moment the wooden bridge was built on the city wall.

The dinosaur people were horrified to find that several wooden lumps with sparks flying towards them.

They already knew the horror of this thing, and the dinosaurs crowded in a small space had no way of avoiding it, so they could only watch the grenade fall beside them.

With the sound of rumbling explosions, the flames soared into the sky, sawdust splashed, and the witchcraft's corpses rained blood all over the sky. The stumps and internal organs were scattered everywhere with the collapse of the siege tower, making it look like hell under the city wall.

However, with the bravery of the dinosaurs, they managed to climb the city wall.

Relying on a body much stronger than human beings, the defenders who were immediately killed retreated steadily.

The soldiers waiting on the steps continued to climb the city wall and fought fiercely with the enemy. In the face of close combat, human soldiers can only rely on the advantage of numbers to stabilize the battle situation. Only four or five soldiers of Wang Lang can kill Kill an enemy in heavy armor.

Seeing that he had finally made progress on his side, the commander of the dinosaurs would naturally not let go of this rare opportunity, and immediately ordered a fierce attack on the city gate.

The car was pushed by dozens of dinosaurs and quickly approached the city gate. With the cover of soldiers on the city wall, the pressure on attacking the city gate was greatly reduced. After gathering under the city wall, the dinosaur archers relied on their superb skills Archery suppresses the firepower of human soldiers.

The human soldiers on the top of the city screamed and fell off the city wall, and were hacked to death by the enemies who rushed up.

The grenadiers hid behind the wall and threw grenades frantically towards the city. They had no time to check the results of the battle, and there were rumbling explosions one after another.

Soon a large number of corpses fell at the city gate.

The general of the dinosaurs had a gloomy face. At least thousands of warriors were killed in this round of attack on his own side. Such a huge casualty was almost the same as the war in the old continent.

The attack at the west gate is the most violent, and the south gate guarded by Shiyue is also facing the attack of dinosaurs.

In order to share the pressure on the west gate, the dinosaurs sent 1 people to attack the south gate.

Most of the gate of the south gate had been shaved off by a trebuchet machine. The dilapidated city tower was ablaze, and the strong smell of blood in the air all showed the brutality of the battle here.

More and more dinosaurs attacked the city wall, and this place has obviously become the key target of the enemy's attack, and a large number of corpses fell within a distance of less than ten meters.

The dead soldiers of two different races piled up into a mountain of corpses.

The dinosaurs leaped over the pile of corpses and grinned to kill the enemy, whose whole body was wrapped in hard armor, so that the human soldiers had no way to do anything, and the steel knife could not cause any damage at all.

The bloody soldiers threw themselves on the dinosaur man, but the steel monster-like enemy in front of him, although wearing heavy armor, was extremely flexible in his movements. He kicked the human soldier away with one kick, and chopped off the soldier's head with a backhand head.

The headless corpse fell heavily sprayed with blood.

The human beings who just came from the wilderness have not lost their vigor, and the splashed blood and scattered stumps have not affected their courage.

The soldiers in front fell, and the soldiers behind rushed forward. Under the continuous attack, four or five soldiers seized the opportunity and flew onto the enemy, using their body weight to forcefully push the enemy to the ground.

The heavy fist of the dinosaur man hit the soldier's body, denting the disc helmet on his head. Even though the soldier was spitting blood at the mouth and staring at the stars, his hands tightly strangled the dinosaur man's neck, providing for the rest of the soldiers. Companions fight for opportunities.

The steel knife passed through the gap in the neck, and after a muffled sound of broken bones, the dinosaur's head left its body and rolled down like a ball.

But there were more than one enemy in heavy armor like this, and it took a lot of effort to barely kill one, and the enemies behind came up and killed these soldiers in the blink of an eye.

Soldiers poured in continuously, and after fighting hard, they finally succeeded in driving the enemy off the city wall. At this time, the narrow city wall was full of fallen corpses, with no place to stand, and their internal organs were mixed with blood. , making the city wall under his feet extremely wet and slippery.

The city gate was under the attack of various defense equipment. After the enemy suffered heavy casualties, they finally gave up their attack and retreated slowly.

The sun was gradually setting, and the battlefield was full of gunpowder smoke. The broken flags were inserted crookedly on the ground, burning with sparks.

The enemy's attack started at noon and did not subside until dusk. The retreat of the dinosaurs gave Guiyu City a rare chance to breathe.

On the city wall, the soldiers leaned against the wall to rest tiredly. Today's battle was extremely brutal. It was the first time for human beings who experienced such a large-scale war to feel the horror of war.

Human lives are barely insignificant in such a war. The blood on the city wall has been washed away, and the fire is lit to dispel the coldness of the night.

Shi and Zhao listened to the number of casualties reported, with incomparably solemn expressions on their faces.

More than 700 soldiers were killed in today's battle, nearly 2000 were injured, and nearly [-]% of their troops were lost in just one day. This made the two very pessimistic about their future defense.

Although relying on the advantage of the city wall, the enemy's losses were far greater than those of the human side, but the huge number of the enemy and the loss of troops were not to the point of hurting the bones.

"If reinforcements don't come, we will be in danger." Shi Yue said in a deep voice.

Zhao Jian nodded and said: "Calculating the time, the two marshals are coming soon, we can only try our best to stick to it."

"Hey, the dinosaurs came so suddenly this time. It will take at least a month for the two marshals to gather the troops from the north. Can you and I hold out for that long?" Shi Yue sighed.

"I can only do my best. Even if all the soldiers are dead, there are still people in the city. After the city is broken, they can't survive. I don't believe that so many people can't beat them." Zhao Jian said fiercely.

Shi Yue nodded and said: "I'll go to the prefect of Guiyu in a while and ask him to tell the people about the situation. We must not lose Guiyu City."

On the second day, the dinosaurs did not launch a large-scale attack, and after firing a few shells, they became silent. This made Shi and Zhao very strange, wondering what the enemy was up to.

Although yesterday's attack did not hurt the dinosaurs, the number of casualties also made their generals feel pained. Facing such a fortified city, if you want to attack by force, you can only force the attack with half of the people dead. This is a price they cannot afford.
