The counterattack of the plateau people also began, and huge stones flew towards the barbarian army. "Boom!" The boulder fell on the crowd, and a large group of people were smashed into meat paste immediately.

However, death did not slow down the footsteps of the barbarians. The burning boulder disappeared instantly like sparks falling into the sea.

So strong, General Akkad thought, is this the Crow King's army?

At this moment, a stray bullet flew past in front of the old man, and he remained motionless, letting the stone fall beside him.

"Report distance!" roared the general.

At this time, the second watchtower was also destroyed by the enemy's siege engine. A warrior climbed up the battlement and said: "About three hundred..." A stray bullet from nowhere hit his head, and his head was like a watermelon. Generally split.

The general looked resolute and said: "Move the catapult and get ready! Aim at the siege tower!"

"Move the catapult and prepare! Aim at the siege tower!" The messengers quickly passed the password to various places on the city wall.

"250 paces!" said the scout.

"shooting!"

The mobile catapult opened fire.Compared with the more powerful and longer-range fixed catapults, these catapults are equipped with wheels and are more flexible, sacrificing range and firepower but also more accurate.A group of four people on the plateau controls the mobile catapult, two people push and load, one person aims and ranges, and the last person fires.

The mobile trebuchet looked for the most suitable angle to shoot, and as the shooter knocked down the mechanism, the stones roared out.I saw that the stone drew a beautiful arc in the air, and then hit the enemy's ladder car. "Boom!" The ladder car was smashed into a big hole, and then another stone flew from another angle, hitting the chassis of the ladder car again.As a result, the ladder car collapsed, and the people inside screamed and ran for their lives, but they didn't have time to get out of the car, and smashed into the crowd along with the car body.

Seeing this scene, the trebuchet operator and the people on the city wall cheered loudly.

At this time, the Crow King's face darkened, and he raised his finger and said, "Don't let those things touch my ladder! Crows, go and destroy those trebuchets."

I saw hundreds of black crow men soaring into the sky. These monsters have human bodies and crow wings, holding crossbows, swords around their waists, and incendiary bombs on their feet.These crow people quickly lifted into the air, and then attacked the city wall.

Even General Akkad hadn't seen it with his own eyes.His face darkened immediately, and he shouted, "Archer, shoot those guys down!"

After the archers around him tried a few times, they found that the arrows couldn't reach those guys at all.

"No, they're too tall!" people shouted in despair.

Then the crow man came to the sky above the mobile trebuchet and poured down the incendiary bombs on his claws!For a while, the city wall turned into a sea of ​​flames, half of the mobile trebuchets were damaged in this wave, and the remaining trebuchets could not continue to shoot on the city wall.Then those crow people did not retreat, they swooped down with strange screams, grabbed the fleeing soldiers with their sharp claws, and then threw them directly off the city wall.

The plateau soldiers had never seen such a monster, and their morale plummeted for a while, and they fled one after another.The general knew that it would not work if this went on, so he had to take out the weapons he had prepared in advance.

"Ask Meteor to deal with these monsters!"

"Yes!"

The order was passed down by the general, and soon hundreds of tall warriors holding dark golden crossbows appeared on the city wall. These people took out the crossbows and used their feet to reload the crossbow bolts. Screaming to inform his companions to retreat, the crow man quickly lifted into the air.

Someone shouted: "Oops, they are going to run!"

But the general said: "It's okay, we have to stay."

At this moment, the people from Meteor Group pulled the trigger. "Whoosh!" A wave of crossbow arrows flew into the sky. The range of these dark golden arrows was far longer than that of bows and arrows, and even farther than ordinary arrows. Many crowmen were shot through their bodies by the arrows and fell down screaming.

The soldiers cheered again, and the morale on the city wall was greatly boosted.

However, General Akkad was not happy.

……

The remaining crow soldiers returned to the crow king and reported to him: "King, the enemy has a long-range crossbow bolt, and we have lost some people."

The Crow King nodded and said, "Let me see."

A man who had been shot in the thigh limped over and said, "Look, Your Majesty."

"Okay." The Crow King pulled out the arrow stuck in his leg. The Crow Soldier's face turned pale from the pain, but he didn't dare to cry out.Then the Crow King looked at the arrow stained with blood and flesh, and said, "Oh, it's the goblin crossbow."

The officer of the Crow King asked: "Goblin Crossbow? Your Majesty, what is a Goblin Crossbow?"

The Crow King said, "Fool! A goblin crossbow is a goblin-made crossbow."

Chief Crow asked: "The goblins are so stupid, but they can still make such good crossbows? The goblins in our army are not as smart as the orcs."

"The goblins in this world are roughly divided into three branches, hobgoblins, cave goblins, and sea goblins. The first two are idiots, but the last one is particularly smart. The plateau people have ports, and they probably bought them from sea goblins."

"They have goblin crossbows, which means they will also have goblin ballistas, and maybe dragon-slaying guns." The Crow King touched his chin and said, "Well, let the giants hold on first, or they will become living targets."

……

The enemy had come under the city wall, and General Akkad sighed as he looked at the motionless giants in the distance.

This is the price of using the goblin crossbow.The general originally wanted to save these "goblin technologies" for the most critical moments, such as when the enemy giants appeared.He hid a few powerful bed crossbows, the range and power of which were far greater than the weapons in human hands. Even if the giants were wearing armor, the bed crossbows were enough to disembowel those monsters.The giant is a big killer on the battlefield, and it is also equivalent to a moving fortress. It is the morale of the barbarians. Once the giant falls, the balance of victory will tilt towards our army.

However, the enemy guessed that General Akkad had a bed crossbow, so they would not easily send out giants.

No way, if the "Goblin Hand Crossbow" is not brought out, then the birdmen alone will be enough to beat these soldiers to defeat.

This is still based on the premise of Leoric's surprise attack. If there is no surprise victory before, I really don't know how to fight this battle.

The enemy was only fifty steps away from the city wall, and the troop carrier was slowly approaching.The archers of the plateau people poured out their arrows, and the rain of arrows fell overwhelmingly.The barbarian soldiers shouted in unison, then raised their shields, and arrows rained down on them like twigs on pitch.

At this time, the enemy's remaining ladder trucks rushed towards the city wall, and General Akkad shouted: "Get ready!"

A wave of soldiers armed with incendiary bombs and oil bottles quickly lined up. The enemy's arrows and flying stones fell on the crowd, and the broken stones flew around. Many people screamed and fled.

The general cut off the deserters next to him with a sword, and roared: "Keep the formation! Kill those who retreat!" The deserters reorganized their formation. At this time, the enemy's ladder car hit the city wall, and everyone felt their feet shake.Then the top of the enemy's ladder lowered the hanging board to form a wooden bridge connecting the city wall.Numerous barbarian soldiers filed out from the ladder. At this moment, General Akkad shouted: "Shoot!"

The defenders tried their best to throw the incendiary bombs and oil in their hands, and the wooden ladder instantly ignited raging flames.The barbarian soldiers were swallowed by the flames, screaming and falling down the ladder, the air was filled with the smell of burnt human flesh.

A strong half-orc rushed up the city wall roaring against the flames, and was instantly turned into a hedgehog by the pikemen.There were also several lizard men hanging on the edge of the city wall struggling to climb up. General Akkad swung his sword three times, cutting off three hands in a row.

At this moment, when he raised his head, he saw a group of strong orcs rushing towards the city gate with battering rams.Each of those orcs was more than two meters tall and looked like a group of bipedal bulls.Once the iron-headed siege hammer hits the city gate, it will crack the city gate within a few strokes.

"pour oil!"

Soldiers prepared in advance poured buckets of hot oil down, then threw incendiary bombs, and the siege vehicles were immediately engulfed in flames.The orcs screamed in the flames, but these monsters didn't retreat, they were still on fire but still controlled the battering ram to hit the city gate!

"Boom!" There was a loud bang from the door.

These monsters!Seeing this scene, General Akkad's fighting spirit was shaken a little.The orcs were burned until their eyeballs melted, but they were still struggling to hit the city gate. If the people in front fell, the people behind would immediately go up.These guys are not afraid of death or pain at all. How can I defeat such an army?

The general was worried, but the soldiers were afraid, the city gate was rattling under the battering ram, and the sandbags, logs, and bricks behind the gate were rattling.The head of God's Bless Warriors has already stood at the gate with the brothers of the Death Squad. Once the enemy enters the city gate, these warriors will repel the enemy at all costs.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The door was crumbling.

There was already a sea of ​​flames in front of the gate, but the orcs wrapped in wet blankets were still rushing towards the gate one after another.The general estimated that the gate of the city would be broken if it went on like this, so he shouted: "Block the gate!"

At this moment, a miracle happened suddenly. The frame of the battering ram probably couldn't stand the high temperature of the flames, and it collapsed with a "boom".The huge battering ram hit the orc soldiers next to them. One man's head was smashed into meatloaf, and the other man's shoulder was smashed to pieces.A huge siege engine was blocked in front of the city gate, like a roadblock, blocking the reinforcements behind.

The general breathed a sigh of relief and thought: luck is on my side this time.

But I'm afraid there won't be a next time.

……

Leoric was quickly donning his armor.Originally said, this battle has nothing to do with him as a wounded soldier.But with such a lively fight outside, he felt itchy in his heart, and wanted to go and see it too.He planned to walk around the city wall twice, oh, if he was unlucky and got shot in the head by a stray bullet or someone hacked to death from behind, that would be great.

"Leoric!" A familiar voice suddenly came from the door.

"Fu?" Leoric's expression was the same as that of a student who was caught playing with a mobile phone in class, "Aren't you saving people on the front line?"

"I'm coming back to get the gauze."

Fu said, walking towards Leoric, she looked at Leoric's armor, and shouted: "Leoric! What are you doing?"

Leoric said: "The enemies are coming, of course I have to go up to deliver...ah no, no, no, I want to go to battle and kill the enemies!"

"But aren't you a wounded person? No wounded person goes to the battlefield. There are still many healthy soldiers on the front line! Just stay with me!" Fu said excitedly.

Leoric said, "You don't understand! I'm different from other people."

Fu said: "Of course I know that you are different from others! That's why your life is especially precious. Now it can be said that in the entire Northern Expedition Army, except for the general, your life is the most important."

"I'm not that important either..."

"Leoric! Why don't you take your own life seriously at all?" The little nun's eyes were red with anxiety, "You can't be lucky every time and escape from death!"

Leoric said seriously: "Trust me, Fu, I will never die."

"I do not believe!"

Leoric thought to himself: How am I going to convince this stubborn nun that I can't die... wait, nun?

Leoric had a flash of inspiration, and he had a solution.

"Fu, do you know what the barbarians call me now?"

"They call me 'Son of the Seven'."

"Son of the Seven Gods...?" Fu was stunned.

Leoric said: "Yes, didn't the scriptures say that the hero Seymour died for others, moved the seven gods, and then came back from the dead. I wanted to pretend, but now I have a showdown. I am Seymour Benmo! So I can't die."

"Are you kidding..."

Leoric also felt that his statement was a bit nonsense, but now he could only continue acting, so he said solemnly, "Do you think I'm joking?"

Fu looked into Leoric's eyes, and various images flashed in her mind—this man captured Wolf City alone, and then resurrected from the dead in the sea of ​​corpses, and then he found the horses by magic, and formed a The cavalry regiment that people in the plateau dreamed of used [-] cavalry regiments to complete the night attack on the enemy camp, the rebellious army took the head of the enemy general from it, and scared away a hundred thousand barbarians with a roar, such things that can only appear in mythology...

If someone said that he was the son of the seven gods in the myth, Nafu would only take him as a joke, and maybe even reprimand him for "blasphemy".However, Leoric said so, but she couldn't help but not believe it.

"Really?" Fu's eyes straightened, "Are you really the illegitimate son of the Seven Gods, the resurrected hero Seymour?"

Leoric nodded again and again, "Ah, yes, yes, you finally believe it? If you believe it, leave me alone and go about your business." Leoric said and walked out.

"what……"

gone.

Fu froze in place, dumbfounded.

In the Seven Gods religion of the plateau people, nuns are women dedicated to God.In the ancient barbaric period, when the gods asked for sacrifices every year, these nuns would go to be sacrifices.Although it is no longer the era of living sacrifices, there are still many myths and stories in doctrine and scriptures that nuns are used to serve the gods.Their mission is to serve the gods at all costs and assist them in accomplishing their great cause of creating a heaven on earth.

So... how should I serve him?

Fu glanced at her flat chest, and then her face turned red.

Chapter 31: You Are the Man in Silly X

Steer slashed down the barbarian in front of him, and kicked over a flying ladder.

As the leader of God's Blessing Warriors, he is also a veteran of many battles. He thought that this battle would be difficult, but he never thought it would be so difficult.The quality of the barbarian soldiers was beyond his imagination. These guys seemed like a mob, but they were actually well-trained and ferocious in combat. Most importantly, they were not afraid of death.

The Blessed Warriors were originally known for being "fearless and fearless", but the enemy was even braver than them. This incident caused Steer a great blow.He didn't understand why these savages were so fierce, did they have firm beliefs?Or are they born with bloodthirsty like beasts?

"A man must not be allowed to climb the walls!" he cried.

At this time, the barbarians were carrying flying ladders one by one, trying to attack the city.Those ladders were light and narrow, and the barbarians could run fast with one ladder on their backs.If one is invisible, dozens of ladders will cover the edge of the city wall, and then the barbarians will follow the trend.

Although the city defenders have a geographical advantage in facing this situation, they can't stand the enemy too much, and the speed is too fast - Steer saw a group of warriors wrapped in wet cloth with big knives in their mouths, using their hands and feet together. Climbing up the ladder, they moved fast, as if they were running on the ladder!

The ladder car, the flying ladder, and the elusive crow man put tremendous pressure on the city wall. The soldiers ignored the other. As soon as they pushed down a flying ladder, they saw a ladder car hit the city wall; car, the crow man in the sky will swoop down to harvest the heads... and during this period, the enemy is still pouring firepower, catapults, burning arrows, and incendiary bombs falling from the sky, although there is no savage The soldiers attacked the city wall, but the city wall has become a purgatory on earth.

Stahl was deeply worried—he saw the chaos, the sheer chaos, the bandits pushing the ladders on the walls, the tinkerers manning the trebuchets, The man with the spear was poking the crow man in the sky, and saw someone running around like a headless chicken.

The soldiers were indeed fighting hard, but they were in disarray.This kind of chaos is very detrimental to the city defenders. The city defenders are originally a system, like a sophisticated machine. Each gear performs its own duties to make the machine operate at its highest efficiency. Now it looks like it is collapsing It's just a matter of time.

Sure enough, the warehouse not far away was on fire, but no one rescued it. It turned out that the people who fetched water went to help lift the wounded soldiers; then the incendiary bombs in the hands of the soldiers were used up immediately, but no one sent the second wave Supplies, the head of the Warriors was roaring and questioning the Wind Flying Group, but the head of the Wind Flying Group was missing; then a barbarian seized the vacancy and climbed up the wall together. Fortunately, Steer was quick-sighted and killed him with a single knife. However, that place should have been owned by the Warriors.

It's messed up, it's all messed up!

The intensification of chaos will quickly collapse this system. At this time, an army must stand up and repair this chaotic system.

At this moment, General Akkad roared, "Where are the guards!"

Then the Akkadian guards who had been on standby under the city wall stood up.

Each legion of the Northern Expedition has specific duties, for example, the Warriors are fighting frontally, the Blood Spears are good at dealing with cavalry and defending in formation, the Hawkeyes are mainly archers, and the Windwings are responsible for logistics and transportation.However, General Akkad's personal guards do not have a specific position, nor are they proficient in any field, but they know a little about everything.They can control trebuchets, but they are not very accurate; they fight for their lives, but their martial arts are not as strong as those of the warrior group; they can also rescue wounded soldiers, but their methods are rough, which may speed up the relief of the wounded... But at this time , This universal reserve team is like a universal hemostatic patch that blocked the wounds of the Northern Expeditionary Army and repaired the system that was on the verge of collapse.

The pro-guards quickly broke into pieces and rushed to every place where they were needed.The chaos on the city wall eased for a while, and the group leaders hurriedly ordered their people to return to their posts, and the machine gradually returned to its original state.

But at this moment, the sound of barbarian horns came from the south wall!General Akkad suddenly turned his head to look, and saw a turquoise beast flag fluttering on the city wall!

"The southern city wall...has fallen?"

General Akkad's heart seemed to be stabbed, and the blood all over his body was coagulated.

……

Leoric led Mortread out of the stable, and the hairy horse snorted and asked, "Boss, who are we going to do today?"

"Boss?" Leoric asked. "Shouldn't you call me Master?"

Leoric had talked with Shia earlier and asked for Mortredy, and now Mortredy is Leoric's "private horse".

Mo Tradie said: "My master is only Shia, you can only be the boss, this is called a loyal minister and not a second master!"
